207. Fried buns

This year is almost over. When Sun Gang and his mother cleaned up the house, they found that there was still a lot of things in their storage room that had not been eliminated. (《》.com)

Most of the food in the pantry is eaten: more than 20 kilograms of pork, more than 10 kilograms of dry goods, and a basket of peanuts and melon seeds...

The pork was cut into large pieces and marinated in the jar with coarse salt. After a month or two, the taste was also unique.

The most eye-catching thing is the large basket of white flour steamed buns, with dozens of them. Basically, they are all "skinned and fleshy" and don't look so good.

But compared with the twelfth lunar month before the New Year, there are still much fewer steamed buns in this large basket.

New Year's ago, Sun Gang and his mother steamed several pots. In addition to dozens of them for their grandma and grandma's family, they also kept more than a hundred of them.

Moreover, after spring, the temperature becomes warmer and warmer. If these steamed buns are not eliminated, they will be spoiled and will be ruined.

These days, living conditions have improved, and the food is very good and the food is very high during the first lunar month. The consumption of staple food is very slow. Generally, people drink alcohol, eat vegetables, and finally have half a bowl of dumplings, and not many people eat steamed buns.

Unlike in the past, living conditions were not very good, and it was difficult to get such a lot of oil and water throughout the year. At that time, the consumption of staple food was very fast. (《》彩 7*)

I remember when I was a child, just after the twelfth lunar month, the noodles mills in the next village would ring very late. Since there was only one mill in several villages in a radius, the trolleys that came to grind the noodles could be lined up by old people. The villagers who had never met in a year might meet here. They would have been chatting endlessly while the queue was queuing, and it seemed that they would have to finish all the words for a year.

Even when the neighbors I didn't know were waiting to grind the noodles, they would have a lot of chatting. As they chatted, they found out who was his sister-in-law's cousin, who happened to be the second nephew of the other party's third cousin's family, so they got to a relative, and some even talked to their children's family.

At that time, there were also ways to grind noodles.

The first dish is full of fine white flour, and the steamed buns are snow-white.

The second dish will have a small amount of bran and the steamed buns will be slightly yellow.

The third dish is more bran, and the steamed buns turn a little black when they are steamed.

Therefore, people with sufficient food only eat the first dish, while those who lack food usually eat the second dish, while those who are severely short of food directly grind the wheat, mix the white flour and bran together to eat it, which is called "one wind blowing".

After grinding the noodles home, every household was busy steaming buns.

Steamed buns are not steamed on any occasion. They usually eat steamed buns, and they cut the noodles directly into everything. The steamed buns are close to rectangular pieces. (《》.com)

Only steam round steamed buns during important festivals should be steamed. The noodles should be kneaded into round balls one by one, which will take more effort, while the steamed buns during the Spring Festival will take more effort.

First of all, kneading noodles. This is enough for women to live in normal times. However, there are many steamed buns during the Spring Festival, so you have to use a large basin. Generally, the men at home have to knead noodles together. Women don’t have that much energy, and they have to weigh them frequently. In this way, the steamed buns will be more vigorous and chewy.

After making up the noodles, you must let the noodles "awake", that is, let the noodles ferment fully.

Before the Spring Festival, it is usually the coldest time of the year. In order to "wake up the noodles", the basin should be placed in a pot with remaining heat or on the pot when cooking. Some people even put the noodles in the quilt and use their body temperature to keep the noodles "wake up".

When I was a child, wheat noodles were relatively nervous. The steamed buns in the twelfth lunar month were not allowed to be eaten until New Year's Eve. On this day, no matter the rich or poor, you can open your stomach to eat white flour steamed buns.

During the Chinese New Year steamed buns are also given to relatives and friends to entertain guests.

There are many rural people in the countryside, and they can pay New Year's greetings until after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. In order to preserve fresh steamed buns, the villagers also tried their best to entertain guests.

Some people use cotton thread to string steamed buns into strings like candied haws and hang them under the eaves to dry them. In order to prevent sparrows from stealing their mouths, the elderly or children at home have to take sticks and guard them all the time.

Children always have times when they are lazy. If they accidentally, the steamed buns hanging under the eaves will be pecked by sparrows in a few small holes.

Some people distillate steamed buns every now and then, but this will distillate the steamed buns to the point of "skin and flesh", and the taste will be much worse when chewed.

In order to prevent the steamed buns from getting moldy, the most common method is to put the steamed buns in the tank layer by layer, leaving a space in the middle, and put it in sulfur to smoke it, but such steamed buns will taste strange.

"If you have money or not, have a full New Year." Now life in rural areas is getting better and better, and eating full is no longer a problem. Every day it is like celebrating the New Year, but every year during the New Year, the villagers will still prepare a lot of New Year's goods, and white flour steamed buns are bound to be indispensable.

When you encounter this kind of steamed bun that has a "knot-breaking" taste, the taste will be much worse when you eat it. When you are hot, drizzle a little water on the surface of the steamed bun, so that the distilled steamed bun will become soft.

"What should I do? There are so many more." Sun's mother looked at half a basket of steamed buns, very worried.

"Don't worry, I have a solution." Sun Gang came up with a good idea.

At noon, Sun Gang took seven or eight steamed buns, put them on the chopping board, and cut them into pieces. Because the steamed buns were dry, there were a lot of steamed bun crumbs on the chopping board. This one cannot be thrown away, it tastes as delicious as it made.

Heat the pot, add peanut oil, stir-fry with green onion, ginger and garlic, then put the dried steamed bun slices into the pot, add some salt and stir-fry, and pour in half a bowl of water. Fry constantly, otherwise the pot will be covered.

Wait until the water slowly dry, the steamed buns turn golden.

After it is out of the pot, it will taste burnt and crispy, with a scent of onion and garlic, which is really delicious.

You can also use the same method to stir-fry the crumbs of the steamed buns. If not enough, then crush a few steamed buns.

Finally, I took a pan of oil to make half a pot of tomato and egg soup, ate golden steamed bun slices, and drank sour egg soup. It was indeed much better than the distilled steamed buns, and it could eliminate many of them in one meal. It seemed that it would take less than a few meals, and this half basket of steamed buns could be dried up.

"This method is good and tastes delicious." Sun's mother, who was wiping her mouth after dinner, said happily.

"You can't always eat it if you taste delicious. We three probably have to eat it for a few days." Dad Sun looked at the many steamed buns in the basket, as if he saw that the next few days would be fried steamed buns and distilled steamed buns...

Recently, Wang Yan lives in her mother's home in the county town. In order to facilitate the examination, she has to go to the hospital for examination every few days.

My stomach is getting bigger and bigger, and I still have 3 months to go before my due date.

If Sun's mother was fine, she would pick up the sewing basket and sew and mend it under the sun-dried wall with a group of women in the village. She would happily make small clothes and tiger-head shoes for Sun Yang's unborn children every day. She took the old bed sheets and cotton cloth, cut them into pieces, and planned to make diapers for the children.

There are children's clothes in the mall, and Sun's mother always feels that she makes it comfortable to wear and sincerely.
