328. Steamed buns (3)

After returning to the market, Ao Muyang was preparing to cook. Ao Fugui waved his hand and said, "Create it, come to my house and start steaming buns. Let's eat the big buns while it's hot, so it smells good!"

Ao Muyang smiled and said, "That's OK."

In the morning, Ao Fugui's parents built a steamer at home, and the stove was built high, with a large steamer on it, with a total of four layers.

The stove was filled with a blower to help the fire. The fire was very strong. As the dry firewood was stuffed in, the flames kept licking out, making the face red and hot.

When Ao Muyang and the others returned, the first pot was almost done. The snow-white and thick steam rose into the air, up and down, looking like someone was cultivating immortals in the yard.

At this time, from the mountain, it seemed that there were people practicing immortality in many yards in the village. When there was no sea breeze, the rolling white air connected into pieces in the air, which was extremely spectacular.

At this time, the aroma of steamed buns is also very strong. The primitive wheat aroma is more charming than the meat aroma, making people saliva.

The general was also swallowing his saliva. While Ao Muyang was not paying attention, he ran to the steamer and stood up, wanting to see what was steamed in the pot.

When Ao Muyang saw it, he quickly dragged it back. It refused to retreat and tried hard to continue arching forward.

This made him so angry that he pushed it into the stove: "No, let's go in, just eat roasted dog meat during the Chinese New Year."

The general's dog hair was roasted near the ground, and the flames were too high, which scared him to shrink his tail and run backwards.

The steamer was turned on, and the thicker steam rolled up, and the more fragrant smell of steamed buns appeared in the yard...

A pot of steamed buns was released, and Ao Fugui handed them to Ao Muyang on a plate and said, "Come on, sheep, the big steamed buns during the New Year are so fragrant."

Because Hongyang is here to buy it in the county town, many people in the village have a variety of steamed buns, such as milk steamed buns, soy milk steamed buns, grain steamed buns, cowpea steamed buns, bean paste steamed buns, etc.

He blew it, and when the steamed bun was not so hot, he took a bite.

When steaming the buns, I also steamed pickles. They were pickles soaked in lard, including radish strips, cabbage, pickled vegetables, etc. Sprinkle with chopped chili, large ginger and star anise and other large ingredients. The steamed buns are even better than meat.

The steamed buns from Ao Xiaoniu's house are also steamed here. The pickles are prepared by Song Qiumin. They smell fragrant when served.

Ao Muyang dipped a hot white steamed bun in some oil soup. It was fragrant and spicy, and it was really appetizing!

The ones we ate at noon and in the evening were all big steamed buns that had just been cooked. Ao Muyang ate them for two meals in a row, and the food was so good!

In addition to steaming buns, there are also people in the village who are busy making other foods, such as sweet potato cakes.

Song Qiumin made sweet potato cakes at home. As soon as Ao Muyang had supper, Ao Xiaoniu brought him a box of freshly baked sweet potato cakes.

Seeing that it was getting late, Ao Muyang said, "Xiao Niu, I'll go and help your mother do it. How come it's so late?"

Ao Xiaoniu chewed the sweet potato cake slices in his mouth and made a crunching sound: "Yeah, my mother has done a lot this year, and I will give you all the money to my uncle, so that you can go to the village and get a share of it."

Upon hearing this, Ao Muyang couldn't stand by and said, "Let's go and help."

Sweet potato cakes are naturally made of sweet potatoes. This thing is peeled and steamed. After it is broken, mix with sesame, white sesame, and black sesame, and then stir hard to make sweet potato mash.

After Ao Muyang left, he took the stone mortar and started to pound it. He was very strong. The ten-pound stone mortar rotated like a windmill in his hand, and soon smashed the sticky sweet potato paste.

Song Qiumin took a big bowl with wet gauze inside. She put it in sweet potato mash and then buckled it on the bamboo slice mat. This way she lifted it up and turned it into sweet potato chips, which was a bit like French fries.

In the past, it was made during the day and then dried for a few days until it was dried. Now with electric heating, this thing has a better heating ability than the winter sun.

After the roasting was dried, Song Qiumin went to fry it. The sweet potato chips could be fried into salt, which was fried with salt or sweet, which was fried with clean sea sand, which retained the sweetness of the sweet potato itself.

After stir-frying, Ao Muyang took a slice in his mouth. This was a folk version of potato chips, which were crunchy and had a sweet taste.

After frying the last sweet potato cake, Song Qiumin packed it in a cardboard box and asked Ao Muyang to move it back. She also bought a small cardboard box to pack it, asking him to give some families with good relationships tomorrow.

Sweet potato cakes are also a local tradition, which is to divide sugar. However, in the past, the conditions were not good, and people could not afford sugar cubes at home, so they used the same sweet sweet potato cake instead.

Now, this has become a tradition.

In addition to sweet potato cakes and frozen rice candy, Song Qiumin also prepared for Ao Muyang.

Unlike sweet potato cakes, frozen rice candy must be made in advance. This thing is made of glutinous rice. After washing the glutinous rice, put it in a large iron pot and steam it hard. When it is dried, it will start to stir-fry. The cooked glutinous rice will puff. Finally, pour a little sugar juice on it. After it is frozen at night, it will stir-fry the frozen rice.

Soon, the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month is coming.

In areas around Qiantan Town, Spring Festival couplets are usually posted on New Year’s Eve and hang money.

The weather was warm in the morning, and fishermen came to the dock to post Spring Festival couplets to the fishing boats and pasted the word "Fu".

Ao Muyang doesn't have to do anything, Ao Daguo helps him do it.

He prepared a lot of boat wedding couplets, first hung them on the bow and pasted the word "Dafu two meters high", then posted a "Smooth sailing" on the cockpit door, and a "Go back with full load" on the stern of the boat.

There are some special things to paste wedding couplets on the boat. For example, the word "Fu" on the bow of the boat cannot be pasted upside down like people on the shore. The meaning of "flip" is a taboo for boaters.

The number one big dragon is a big ship. There are many places to paste wedding couplets, and there are also door gods on the crew cabin door. Colorful flags should be erected on the bow of the ship, lanterns should be hung, and the fishing boat should be decorated.

After a busy work, Ao Daguo finally finished his work.

After checking, he patted the bow of the boat and sighed: "My man, it's a happy New Year. I'll wish you a happy New Year first. You can do your best next year. Let's get rich and make a fortune together!"

Ao Muyang called Zhong Cang and asked, "Brother Cang, how is it going on with my sister-in-law?"

Zhong Cang smiled and said, "Okay, I'm discharged from the hospital. I'm discharged today. I don't have to spend the New Year in the hospital."

Ao Muyang said: "Are you going there to celebrate the New Year?"

Zhong Cang said: "I have a friend who rented a house in Hongyang. I want to go over and spend the New Year together."

Ao Muyang said: "Are your friend alone?"

Zhong Cang was silent for a moment and said, "No, there is a family."

Ao Muyang smiled and said, "Then don't disturb the family's reunion. Come to my place. I have many rooms and the environment is good. Let's celebrate the New Year together."

Zhong Cang said without hesitation: "Okay, Longtou, I will do whatever you want."

The execution ability is as strong as ever.

Ao Muyang drove a Mercedes-Benz to pick them up. Wang Xia didn't dare to move after the operation. Zhong Cang carefully helped her get into the car, as if holding a national treasure porcelain.
