Chapter 30 Talent
Lin Yu'an checked the pressed dry tofu. Each piece is of uniform size, thickness and thickness, which is very good. "Now, soak the dried tofu in salt water for a while."
Chef Qian was very surprised, so she pressed the water in the tofu and soaked it again?
Hongling hurriedly asked, "Miss, why is this?"
“This will give you a bottom flavor.”
"oh."
After Yun Yishan walked in, she saw Chu Niang Qian and her daughter soaking some tofu cubes in an orderly manner under the command of her little cousin.
"The tofu in the morning is ready? Didn't it mean that it would take at least two hours?" She looked at the shelf next to her curiously, and there were several pressed wooden frames on it, which seemed to have not decreased.
Lin Yuan: "These are yesterday's tofu."
"Ah, are there all the leftovers from yesterday?" Yun Yishan was a little puzzled. This tofu was delicious as long as it was cooked a little, and there were actually leftovers?
Lin Yu'an explained: "I heard from the butler and the wet nurse that I would prepare for a funeral banquet afterwards."
Yun Yishan nodded.
"Because my parents' situation is special, I cannot hold too grand ceremonies, so I want to use these tofu to make dishes at the funeral banquet to reward those who come to attend the funeral."
After listening to this, Yun Yishan immediately hugged Lin Yuan with heartache.
This is all An An's filial piety.
In fact, when Lin Yuan heard the housekeeper talk to the wet nurse, he remembered his past life.
In order to distinguish between the past and the present, she called the past life.
When my grandfather and grandmother left in my previous life, the villagers said they wanted to eat tofu soup rice to repay those who attended the funeral.
Although she didn't know much about the specific customs and meanings, it seemed to be related to the Buddha's fate and could allow the deceased to rest in peace. Since the tofu has been made, let's do it well.
This is also a wish she gave to the original owner.
She used the original owner's body, which also meant that she could not be buried, so she always wanted to do something for the original owner.
"Can't you do it again the same day? Will it be bad?"
Lin Yuan pointed to the tofu on the shelf, "There are not enough staff, so you have to prepare other vegetarian dishes at that time, so make some preparations in advance. Now the weather is cold, and it can be stored for a long time after making dried tofu."
Yun Yishan touched Lin Yuan's head with her hand, "So that's it. An An is like her aunt, and she is very talented in cooking."
Lin Yuan was stunned when he heard this.
Lin's mother's busy figure flashed in her mind. In the image, Lin's mother also fed the little original owner from time to time and asked if it was delicious.
That was the warmth that Lin Yuan had never experienced in his previous life.
But she didn't expect that the original owner's mother had such a side. No wonder after she made the tofu, Lin Ruochen and Mrs. Yun were only surprised at first, but later took it for granted.
Since there is an excuse for talent, Lin Yuan wonders if he can be bolder.
Seeing the little cousin's lonely expression made Yun Yishan want to slap himself.
Why did you mention these sad things again?!
Xixi, who was standing next to Lin Yuan, stared at Yun Yishan with her big eyes open, as if she was about to rush up to hit someone.
Although the little fat man didn't quite understand what was going on, he also learned to stare at others.
The condemnational eyes of the two little guys made Yun Yishan even more guilty.
"An An, I..."
"Cousin Shan, Xixi, uh... Young Master, let's mix five-spice powder!" Lin Yuan, who came to his senses, looked at them with a smile.
In order to make the dried tofu taste better, Lin Yu'an decided to make some seasoning powder.
Yun Yishan was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Okay!"
The two little guys nodded ignorantly.
After the tofu was almost soaked, Lin Yu'an asked Chuan Qian to drain the water, then put it on the special bamboo strips and smoke it with firewood.
"When the bottom side is golden, it will turn over."
Chu Niang Qian and Hong Ling: "Yes."
Lin Yu'an and his friends ordered the baked spices to be crushed into powder.
Seeing Xixi's serious little face, Lin Yuan felt that the little bitterness she had suffered before was nothing at all.
Then Lin Yu'an handed over the prepared seasoning powder to Chu Niang Qian and asked her to sprinkle it on the smoked dried tofu, and a faint fragrance spread in the air.
Because the Lin family was still in the filial piety period, the dishes should not be too heavy, so Lin Yu'an simplified the dried tofu that should have been fried and soaked in seasoned to smoke and roast like this.
The fragrance makes people swallow their saliva continuously.
The little fat man quietly stretched out his hand and wanted to pull Lin Yu'an's sleeve to ask for food, but Xixi directly patted him.
Lin Yuan, who heard the sound, turned around, "What's wrong?"
"Sister An'an, when can I eat this?" Xiaopang drooled.
"It will take at least half a smoke...cough, two quarters of an hour."
It will take so long?
The little fat dun and Xixi's faces collapsed.
Lin Yu'anxin immediately softened, turned around and said to Chu Niu Qian, "Aunt Qian, you can pick up three pieces and we will try the taste."
"OK."
Looking at the golden color and a hint of smoky dried tofu, Yun Yishan endured the urge to taste it, "Don't it take to smoke it for two quarters of an hour? You can eat it now?"
"Well, it was originally cooked. Now it is smoked to increase flavor and remove moisture from it so that it can last longer." Lin Yu'an said, cutting the dried tofu with a knife.
"oh."
Yun Yishan nodded in a vague way.
The cut tofu is still moist inside and has a special taste.
"Come on, try it all."
Everyone picked up a piece of tofu with chopsticks and dried it into their mouths.
Unlike soft tofu, the smoked dried tofu is a bit chewy and a different experience.
Lin Yuan felt it was a pity.
If you add some chili sauce, it will be even better!
Well, just one thing.
Hongling: "How come you feel like you are eating meat?"
Her comment made everyone nod and agree.
Such a small half piece of dried tofu could not satisfy the little guys' Gu Niang. Wang, Xixi directly pulled Lin Yu'an's sleeves and expressed his demands, "I want it!"
The little fat man hurriedly shouted: "I want it again!"
Although Yun Yishan didn't say anything, her eyes showed the same meaning.
Lin Yuan: "It will taste better after smoked."
Xixi blinked her big eyes, then let go of her hand, and sat obediently waiting.
Qian, who was turning over the tofu, looked at her daughter who was busy, and her eyes couldn't help but feel moist.
Unexpectedly, such a craft was passed on to herself and her daughter without saying anything.
Having a good craft will make my daughter's future life a reality.
Lin Yuan glanced at Chu Niang Qian who was quietly wiping her tears and remembered the news that Qinghe found.
Qian Chuniang's husband is a member of the Yun family, but in the year after Hongling was released, they unfortunately died in the battlefield and became orphans and widows.
Later, because of her good cooking skills, Lin's mother wanted to be a dowry.
Lin Yuan sighed deeply.
War is so cruel.
Huh?
war?!
