   Chapter 272 Green Rice Fruit 1 (two more)

   The vegetarian dumplings on the first day of the Chinese New Year, thousands of dumplings, make everyone's belly round and round.

  On the first day of the new year, everyone does not work, and does not do any work.

  According to the custom, they don’t even wash their clothes, they don’t clean the sanitation, and they start working the next day.

   "I soaked rice last night, and I'm making green rice crackers today!" Auntie smiled and said, "I won't be cooking at noon. Whoever wants to eat, please tell me, look at steaming some rice, and make some dishes."

   "I'm eating green rice crackers!" the children raised their hands and said.

   Grandma Gu asked her grandmother curiously, "Auntie, what are green rice crackers?"

   Grandma said, "Green rice **** is a kind of cake made of rice. The green cake is made with green vegetable juice. We call it green rice cracker!"

   Grandma Gu said with a smile, "This kind of thing, oh, I remember, when I came to Pingyang County, I ate it before, um, it's not bad!"

   After everyone finished eating the dumplings and rested for a while, the first aunt and the second aunt used a dustpan to filter out the rice that had been soaked last night.

  Gu Qingming followed curiously and looked at the rice, which was not the same color as the rice he usually eats.

   "Why does this rice look a little dark?" Gu Qingming asked with a little doubt and curiosity, "And how long does it take to soak the rice?"

   Auntie explained with a smile, "This rice is soaked with straw ash, so the soaked rice looks a little dark! Generally, rice is soaked for at least four hours."

   "Ha, straw ash?" Gu Qingming asked, "Why do you want straw ash?"

   "Straw ash has alkali!" Auntie said, "When making green rice crackers, the stickiness is increased, so the green rice crackers will not crack, have toughness, and taste better!"

   "Could it be that straw ash and rice are directly soaked?" Gu Qingming asked curiously, "Isn't the rice covered with ash?"

   "No!" The aunt shook her head and said, "Soak the straw ash in water for half an hour, then filter it out. The ash residue is not used. The filtered water is straw ash water. Then use this straw ash water to soak with the rice."

  Gu Qingming looked at the two large jars of rice soaked with straw ash, and said, "Look at a lot of rice, how many kilograms is this?"

   "Well, it's four buckets of rice!"

   "Four buckets of rice?" Gu Qingming was a little puzzled.

"Well, one liter of rice is one kilogram and a half, and ten liters of rice is one bucket." The second aunt explained, "We have a lot of family. If we make it, we have to send some out. If we make more, we will make four buckets of rice, um. , 60 pounds!"

  Gu Qingming nodded.

  Sixty pounds is really not much, mainly because there are really many Shi family members, the Shi family, the eldest grandfather's family and the little grandfather's family, that add up to hundreds of people.

  The eldest aunt and the second aunt are filtering rice, and the third aunt and a few sisters-in-law seem to be making pickles, washing radishes, eggplants, etc.

   "Third aunt, are you still cooking at noon today?" Gu Qingming asked with a little doubt, "Do you still eat vegetarian at noon?"

   Otherwise, why is it like pickles and green vegetables.

   "Haha," Aunt Three said with a smile, "These dishes are used for stuffing."

   "Ah, make stuffing?" Gu Qingming asked with a little doubt, "Is this green rice **** still stuffed?"

The third aunt said, "Well, this green rice **** is what we call Baba. There are several ways to eat this green Baba. One is not stuffed, just boiled and eaten with sauce; the other is, It is stuffing, just like dumplings, which are bigger than dumplings, and then steamed in a pot. Another way is to put stuffing in the pot and fry it directly. However, we often eat stuffing and steam it. , delicious, fried is also delicious."

  The third aunt glanced at the ingredients prepared by everyone, and continued, "This stuffing includes pickles, dried radishes, water radishes, and eggplants. Mingming, do you have any stuffing you want to eat?"

   "Is there no leek stuffing?" Gu Qingming asked.

   "Does Mingming want to eat leek stuffing?" The third aunt said, "Then let's prepare more leeks!"

   "The reason why the green rice crackers are blue is that when the rice milk is being milled, leeks are added to grind them together," said the third aunt. "Because of the fragrance of leeks, this stuffing rarely uses leeks."

   "Ah, did you grind it with leeks to make it blue?" Gu Qingming solved the question, "I always thought it was a chemical dye?"

"What kind of chemical pigments do you put in the food you eat at home!" The third aunt said amusingly, "We make food in the countryside, and the colored ones, such as green rice crackers, red rice crackers, and yellow rice crackers, are all natural colors. Use green vegetables or real fruits to get the color. You don’t go out of your way to buy a chemical dye or something. Country people don’t worry about that thing.”

   On the other side, Shi Hangyu and others brought out the beater.

   Grandma Gu looked at this little machine and asked suspiciously, "This is?"

  Shi Hangyu said, "Grandma, this is a beating machine. Wait for the rice pulp."

   Grandma Gu said with a smile, "I thought it was milled? It turned out to be a machine. I've seen rice milk milled by others before."

   Grandma said, "A few years ago, we did use a stone mill to grind rice pulp. In the past few years, the living standard has been getting better and better, and everyone can buy a small machine for convenience!"

When they were chatting, the first and second aunts had already taken out the rice they had fished out. Then, they added some water, oil and salt, cut the leeks into sections, and then used the cooking spoons, one spoonful of rice. and water into the machine.

  As the roar of the machine sounded, there was a thick cyan rice milk in the funnel.

   First made two buckets of rice milk and put it in a large iron pot.

  Pour oil into the wok beforehand, and then grease most of the wok with oil, so that the rice milk does not stick to the wok.

   There was a fire in the stove.

  As soon as the rice milk is poured into the pot, start stirring with a spatula.

   Need to keep stirring, keep stirring, can't stop!

  Because, as soon as it stops, the pot will burn!

   This is a work of strength!

   The stirring of such a large pot of rice milk definitely needs a man to do it!

  So, this work was done by Shi Yuxin.

  Shiyuxin is powerful!

  Gu Qingming looked at the pot from the side, the thick and sticky green rice milk became thicker and thicker, and then turned into clumps, like dough!

  Shi Yuxin squeezed a small piece with his hand, tasted it in his mouth, and said, "Mom, it seems to be alright, come and see!"

  Second aunt is frying the filling of green rice crackers!

   She put down the spatula, walked to the stove, took a bit of it with chopsticks, tasted it, and said, "It's not very cooked. It's almost cooked! Just stir it twice! No need for fire!"

   The little cousin who was in charge of the fire said with a smile, "Haha, you can take a break!"

   After a while, Shi Yuxin shoveled the already made green dumplings directly onto the table that had already been prepared. The table board is also touched with oil, so that it does not stick to the board!

   The semi-finished green rice **** is ready!
