Chapter 155 Oil Cake
Chapter 155 Oil Cake
"No. But I didn't say anything else. I just said I was back and then I left. Mom, is it time to eat? I'm hungry." Gu Lichun didn't want to talk about this and changed the subject directly.
When Gu Lixia returned home, Jiang Wen had already finished watering the fields and was squatting in the yard pulling weeds.
It's Saturday, and Gu Lixia is looking forward to the arrival of Sunday.
I also looked at eggplants, tomatoes, and peppers.
I continued making the sauce after returning from the village on Sunday.
I just cheated Liu Xiaocao out of money.
I feel so good.
Gu Lixia called out to Jiang Wen, "Jiang Wen, come on, I'll teach you how to cook fried pancakes."
"Youbing. I've never heard of it. I've only eaten youtiao." Jiang Wen quickly washed his hands and went into the kitchen.
Gu Lixia is a person who knows how to weigh the pros and cons.
Jiang Wen and I can have our own private lessons every day in the space.
But Jiang Wen felt guilty.
This is why Gu Lixia wanted to take out all the food that could be taken out of the space.
When it comes to fried dough sticks, Jiang Wen knows about them, but when it comes to fried cakes, Jiang Wen is completely confused.
Gu Lixia is a well-read teacher. "Youbing is the brother of youtiao. The ingredients and preparation are the same. The only difference is the shape: one is long and the other is round."
"Adding sugar to the oil cake and frying it in a pan makes it into a sugar-coated oil cake. It's been my breakfast since I was a child. Sugar-coated oil cake is also called sweet fruit."
"In fact, it's not difficult to make sugar-coated pancakes at home. As the saying goes, 'practice makes perfect.' Fragrant and sweet pancakes are a great breakfast treat for kids."
"Add eggs and salt to the flour. Dissolve the yeast in warm water, pour it into the flour, and stir with chopsticks until the dough becomes flocculent. The yeast is what I used to steam buns before. Now, you go watch the door, and I'll pour some out."
As soon as Gu Lixia finished speaking, Jiang Wen went to the door of the main hall.
Jiang Wencai went into the kitchen again after Gu Lixia finished drinking.
"You need to reserve a little water and add it according to the water absorption capacity of the flour. Start by kneading the flour into a fine dough, then take out one-third of the white dough and apply a layer of oil on the remaining dough to prevent it from drying out."
"Put the small dough on the chopping board and add brown sugar. It's almost done. You can use white sugar instead of brown sugar. Or make another one with white sugar. Cover both the white dough and the sugar dough and let them ferment."
"Light a fire and let the temperature rise so that it can ferment easily. When the dough has doubled in size and has a honeycomb-like texture inside, it means it has fermented enough and can be processed. Brush oil on the chopping board, take the two doughs to the chopping board, and do not knead them. Roll them into long round strips and divide them into small pieces. The small pieces of dough for the sugar dough should be smaller than those for the folding dough, as the two doughs will be folded later."
"Put the white dough on the bottom and the sugar dough on top, and press it down twice. Then use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a round pancake of moderate thickness, and then score it two or three times in the middle. Before putting it into the frying pan, let the raw pancake rest for a few minutes to let it rest, otherwise it will be hard when fried."
"Pour the oil in and heat it until it's about 60% to 70% hot. Put the pancake in the pan. The pancake will expand rapidly when it encounters the hot oil. Turn it over in time and fry both sides until golden brown. Then you can take it out of the pan."
The oil is hot, and after adding the fried pancakes, the taste is even more overpowering.
Jiang Xiu got up and continued reading, thinking that her brother and sister-in-law were cooking in the kitchen, so she decided not to join in the fun.
I didn't expect the aroma of oil.
Come on.
When Jiang Xiu came over, several sugar-coated cakes had already been made.
Gu Lixia handed one to her.
Jiang Xiu felt her stomach growling. She took a bite. The fried pancake was fragrant and sweet, so delicious that she couldn't stop eating.
Jiang Xiu took the fried dough stick.
Went to Jiang Huainan's house.
The power of food is indeed immeasurable.
The three of them got off the ground in a flash.
I ran to the kitchen and prepared to eat the same thing my aunt was eating.
Gu Lixia had already prepared everything. There were three bowls and three pairs of chopsticks on the table in the main room, each with a fried cake in it.
The three of them went out to the yard to eat.
The people climbing on the walls on both sides are neighbors.
"Huaibei, what delicious food is this? I have never eaten it before. Give me a bite." Aunt Su was really greedy.
When I smell the fried food, I feel like there is water in my stomach.
Take a look now.
All the children in the Jiang family can eat it.
Having children of their own.
I have lived for most of my life. I am covered in earth up to my neck. Can’t I eat?
Sun Tieniu, the neighbor on the left and a fellow grandfather, swallowed his saliva and said, "Auntie Su, don't think about it. Maybe they made one for each person when they made it. Not only are we greedy, but the children are the most greedy. Even the little one in the Jiang family has never tasted this thing. Isn't that right, Huaixi?"
Huaixi's throat didn't hurt anymore, but he didn't have time to talk, so he just nodded.
Sun Guang is the first grandson after having three daughters.
At home, you can have whatever you want.
At this time, the naughty child's nature came into play. "Grandpa, I want it too, I want it too. Go to the Jiang family and ask for it, hurry up. Why can Jiang Huainan eat it but I can't? I'm still your only grandson."
While the neighbors on both sides were talking, Jiang Xiu hid in the main room.
At this time, everyone had a dog nose.
No matter whose food is good, they can smell it.
I even hope that everyone who sees it will have a share.
As long as I am thick-skinned, I can get something to eat.
We didn't meet that many times.
Gu Lixia and Jiang Wen worked together to complete the explosion.
I told my sister-in-law, "Don't waste the oil used to fry the pancakes. It can still be eaten, but you can't fry anything else. You can use it for cooking or making pancakes."
"When you need oil while cooking, use this first. When the oil temperature drops, have your brother pour it into a bottle. If the main room smells of cooking fumes, don't let them back in. If they're thirsty, just make them some milk powder or water."
Gu Lixia also took a sugar pancake with her hand.
He broke it in half and gave it to Jiang Wen.
Not bad. I guess Jiang Wen will do it himself next time.
Gu Lixia and Jiang Wen also left the main room.
At this time, the neighbors on both sides had already come down from the wall.
Only the children insisted on lying down.
After eating a few bites in the yard, he returned to his room.
Quickly enter the space, take a shower, and come out.
When Gu Lixia was applying hand cream, she saw the hair on her arms.
Life is really not so refined now.
In the past, I would start using depilatory creams and hair removal devices as soon as summer arrived.
Now, it is really important to adapt to local customs.
However, for a while, underarm management preferred using a razor.
Bought several models.
Those are the two I use most often.
The rest are just gathering dust.
It seems I can find it for Jiang Wen at noon.
After leaving the space, Jiang Wen poured the cooled oil into the glass bottle.
