Chapter 207 Mincemeat Qin Huai didn't expect that mint filling could be wrapped in glutinous rice balls. Judging from Gong Liang's expression and tone, Qin Huai absolutely believed that Jiang Weijin's mint filling dumplings were delicious. But if it’s mince filling, it’s a problem. Qin Huai doesn't know how to make this kind of filling. He has only heard that mint filling usually appears in moon cakes, and Qin Huai has never made moon cakes. After all, the breakfast shop selling Sanding Bao and Sixi Dumplings is already the limit. If it sells mooncakes again, the Qin Family Breakfast Shop can be renamed Qin Family Breakfast Shop selling everything. Of course, the main reason is that Qin Luo doesn't like mooncakes very much. There used to be a small shop in Qiu County that made very delicious five-nut mooncakes. The ingredients were authentic and the dried fruits were all carefully selected and top-grade. They were sweet but not greasy. It’s not like most of the five-nut mooncakes on the market. It’s sweet and greasy after one bite, and it goes straight to heaven when you take another bite. The owner of the small shop at the back retired, and Qiu County lost its delicious five-nut mooncakes. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Qin Huai embraced Shuanghuang Lianrong again. As the price of Shuanghuang Lianrong increased day by day, online shopping was on the rise. After Qin Luo discovered Yunzu mooncakes on the Internet, Qin Huai switched to Yunzu mooncakes. As of last year's Mid-Autumn Festival, Qin Congwen insisted on the old tradition and had to eat five-nut mooncakes on the festival day. Zhao Rong sneered at the cheap and unpalatable five-nut mooncakes that Qin Congwen bought from nowhere. She scolded the double-yolk lotus seed paste for being expensive and bought the most expensive one.
Qin Luo ate a lot of cloud-legged mooncakes from one month before the festival to one month after the festival. Those who knew she was eating mooncakes, but those who didn't knew thought she was eating snacks. As for Qinhuai... He tasted a little of everything. Qin Huai never understood why his parents and Luo Luo were so obsessed with buying moon cakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Except for Qin Luo's selfish desire to eat all the moon cakes, there was no need to buy other moon cakes at all. Relatives and friends gave me enough gifts that I couldn’t finish them all. Before Qin Huai inherited the inheritance and opened the Yunzhong Canteen in Shanshi City, relatives from all walks of life in the Qin family competed with each other every New Year. They send mooncakes on the Mid-Autumn Festival, rice dumplings on the Dragon Boat Festival, candies on Halloween, random gifts on Christmas, and blessings on New Year's Day. They focus on a mix of local and foreign festivals. If conditions didn't allow it, Qin Huai felt that they would even want to send some on Arbor Day and April Fool's Day. thing. Normally, enough things are given away for the holidays, but during the Chinese New Year, they can come to the door and eat so much that they can even take them away. Every year, Qinhuai's family has so many mooncakes and rice dumplings that they can't finish them all, and they end up having to send them to the welfare home. Every Mid-Autumn Festival and Dragon Boat Festival, the children in the welfare home will start eating late at night and eat moon cakes and rice dumplings with all their strength. During these two festivals, Qin Huai will change from Brother Baobao to Brother Bianbing and Brother Zongzong. Qin Huai came back to his senses from the memory of moon cakes. He originally thought that Sixi Rice Balls was a free-point question, but he didn't expect that it was an additional question. Teacher, I have never learned this knowledge before. Mincemeat really involves knowledge blind spots. This really doesn't happen. Qin Huai didn't even know the specific ingredients needed for mince filling. He only knew that there was no fixed formula for this filling. It mainly consisted of nuts, candied fruits and sugar. The specific ingredients depended on the chef's recipe. Qin Huai was still thinking. Gong Baozhu had already finished the second shepherd's purse glutinous rice ball. He wanted to go back to scooping the sesame-filled glutinous rice **** into the first bowl, but Guo Mingzhu picked up the bowl. "Baozhu, this glutinous rice dumpling is made of glutinous rice flour. If you eat too much glutinous rice at night, you can't digest it. Eat less and mom will eat the rest." Guo Mingzhu used a trick to steal the glutinous rice dumpling in front of her daughter. Gong Baozhu realized that the situation was not good, and was about to stop the loss in time and lowered his head to pick up another bowl. When he lowered his head, he found that the bowl was gone, and Gong Liang was eating from the bowl.
Gong Baozhu:! Her mother's move wasn't just about taking advantage of others, she was trying to make a fool of herself in the east or west! She helped her parents eat the shepherd's purse glutinous rice **** that they didn't like. Her parents killed the donkey and refused to let her eat the remaining three glutinous rice balls! Gong Baozhu left tears of regret in her heart. If I had known this, I would have eaten the sesame-filled one first, and I could have eaten one more. While Gong Baozhu was crying in his heart, Qin Huai finished thinking. I can't think of it at all. I don't have any useful information about mince filling making in my mind, so I can't think about it, so I just ask. "Mr. Gong, do you know how to make the mince filling you just mentioned?" Qin Huai asked seriously. This question deeply stopped Gong Liang. Gong Liang held up a spoon. There was a whole big and beautiful glutinous rice ball stuffed with red bean paste in the spoon. However, he hesitated to open his mouth. He thought for dozens of seconds in embarrassment and shook his head. "I don't know, I only know to use winter melon candy." "When Master Jing was making dumplings with mince filling, he didn't have enough winter melon candies at home, so he borrowed all the winter melon candies from my house." Winter Melon Candy Qin Huai knew a very sweet kind of winter melon candied fruit, so sweet that it made people sick. Qin Huai had eaten it in the orphanage when he was very young. It may not be good to eat on its own, but it should be good to make mincemeat. "Then do you know where I can buy dumplings with mince filling?" Qin Huai asked next. This question was asked to Gong Liang again. "Basically you can't buy it now. Mint-filled glutinous rice **** are just like five-nut mooncakes. Everyone finds them unpalatable and no one eats them." Gong Baozhu answered, "When I was in kindergarten, the small shop in front of the school still sold mints. The dumplings stuffed with mint and mint are more expensive than those stuffed with meat.” "At that time, I thought the mince filling was very sweet and delicious. But as I grew up, I found it was too sweet and cloyingly sweet. The mint filling was originally more expensive than other products and not delicious. As time went by, no one liked it. They sell mint stuffing. It’s better to buy shepherd’s purse stuffing or shredded radish stuffing, which is delicious and cheap.” "That's because the prices of candied fruits and dried fruits have increased." Guo Mingzhu stood at the door of the kitchen and spoke out for the mint filling. "To make dumplings with mint filling, you need to use good quality candied fruits and dried fruits, and use lard to boil them. Once work is cut off, reduce The ingredients are made of second-class ingredients. Cheaply bought lard and cheaply bought candied fruit are mixed together and boiled in a pot. After it melts, it becomes sweet and greasy, just like eating fat with saccharin added. Is it tasty?" "The mince-filled gnocchi you ordered from the restaurant you loved to eat when you were a kid were just mediocre and frighteningly sweet. That is to say, you loved sweet things when you were a kid and couldn't eat them. Every time you got out of school, you would make a fuss about eating them, and you would have to eat two. ” "I had to eat two. I couldn't finish half of it and threw it to me and your dad. At that time, your dad and I turned green when we saw that sweet glutinous rice dumpling. We drew lots at home every day to decide who would pick you up and who would pick you up. Your brother." Gong Baozhu:… Oh, this feeling of having your mother tell you embarrassing things about your childhood in front of outsiders... Gong Baozhu wanted to dig a hole in the floor and hide downstairs. "But what Master Jing makes is really different!" Guo Mingzhu also began to strongly recommend Master Jing's mince-filled glutinous rice balls, "When Lao Gong had his birthday that year, I also ate a bowl of the glutinous rice **** cooked by Master Jing. The taste is truly unforgettable.” "Chop the candied fruits and dried fruits and put them into the dumplings. It's hot and sweet when you eat it, and it's not greasy at all." "I remember that time when Master Jing cooked a big pot, the four flavors of dumplings didn't come in different shapes, but they all looked the same. We all wanted to eat the dumplings with mint filling, and we ate them one by one until we couldn't eat any more. Master Jing brought out another plate of particularly beautiful steamed buns. I was not married to Gong Liang at that time, so I almost rolled my eyes at his house." Guo Mingzhu said with a smile. "Oh? Is this the case?" Gong Liang teased. Guo Mingzhu glanced at him angrily: "You're not much better. You just rolled your eyes and had to hold on to the wall to walk."
After speaking, Guo Mingzhu sighed: "But I only ate it once. Master Jing had an accident not long after he retired. Since then, he has not been able to cook and make delicate snacks." "If Master Jing was still here, our Baozhu might have had the opportunity to eat the really delicious Sixi Rice Balls. When we were young, we wouldn't have been so worthless and insisted on eating that unpalatable restaurant, which tortured both of us." Gong Baozhu: "Mom!" Stop talking, I want face from your daughter! When Qin Huai finally went back, Guo Mingzhu stuffed two bottles of freshly squeezed juice into his hand. Gong Liang couldn't find Yunwu on the mountain, which he missed so much, and felt that he couldn't give away the remaining tea, so he planned to go back to several other houses to look for it tomorrow. When Qin Huai went home with the juice, he saw the tea Gong Liye gave him at noon on the porch. Clouds and fog on the mountains. Qin Huai:… What did Gong Liye say when he gave himself tea at noon? He said this was a good tea he bought some time ago. Well, it’s also Tao that I got from my biological father. Qin Huai could only say that the father and son had the same idea of giving gifts. Qin Huai glanced at the dining table. Ouyang had finished eating his bowl of Sixi Rice Balls, and Ouyang thoughtfully put his own bowl into the insulator. As for Ouyang himself, he was like a stuffed seal at the moment, lying on his back on the sofa watching videos on his mobile phone. Qin Huai silently put two bottles of juice on the coffee table: "I will eat less at night during this period. From now on, I will practice Sixi Tangtuan every night." "No problem, isn't it just Si...hiccup...xixi soup? You can eat it." "Down!" Seal patted his belly and vowed. Early the next morning, Qin Huai went to Huangji early and arrived at Huangji at about the same time as Zheng Siyuan. Zheng Siyuan had just poured the flour and was a little surprised to see Qin Huai come so early today, but he quickly withdrew his surprise. Because Zheng Siyuan was not the first to come today. Guli is. When Zheng Siyuan arrived, Gu Li's Ruyi Roll was almost ready. Although Ruyi Roll is not a long-time snack, it is still a snack, and the basic preparation time of the snack is there. If Guli is almost finished making the first batch of snacks before 8 o'clock in the morning, it means that he came at least 7 o'clock. Considering the speed at which Gu Li makes snacks, he will most likely arrive after 6 o'clock. Guli's get off work time yesterday was 9pm. Huang Ji's chefs all got off work, so Guli quietly worked overtime for an hour and made Ruyi Rolls. This kind of super scroll king stunned Zheng Siyuan. Compared with Guli, the other chefs at Zhiweiju, who most likely start preparation work around 7:30, are just average. Qin Huai didn't expect that it was rare for him to come in advance to discuss the mince filling with Zheng Siyuan, but the kitchen would be so lively as soon as he came. Seeing Qin Huai coming, the DNA of the chefs at Zhiweiju immediately moved. Some were doing chores and others were making tea. Qin Huai glanced at the cooking table and found that everyone had prepared ingredients for him. If these chefs from Zhiweiju stay in Huangji for a few more months, they will have to put Huangji's previous helpers out of work. When Gu Li handed the tea cup to Qin Huai respectfully and said Master Qin would drink tea, Qin Huai felt that this world was really fantasy.
Qin Huai did not drink tea, nor did he start making longevity noodles immediately. He didn't come so early to go to work early. Qin Huai walked up to Zheng Siyuan and asked in a casual tone: "How is your recent practice of ladle turning?" "Not very good." Zheng Siyuan replied calmly. As a standard white-knife chef, it's amazing that Zheng Siyuan can master the skill of turning the ladle with great results in such a short period of time. "So do you know anything about mincemeat?" Zheng Siyuan said it was such a blunt turn, but still replied: "Yes, but not many." "You want to make mooncakes?" "No, I'm going to make Sixi dumplings with mint filling." "Sixi glutinous rice balls?" Zheng Siyuan was stunned, "Luo Luo wants to eat?" Qin Huai said: "She can eat it if she wants, mainly because Gong Liang wants to eat it." Zheng Siyuan understood and expressed that he was helpless. "I don't know how to make glutinous rice balls." Zheng Siyuan said simply and clearly, "I don't know if my dad can do it. Anyway, I don't know how to make dumplings. You should know my dad's style of making dim sum better. He doesn't like dumplings. The glutinous rice dumplings are a very homely and simple-looking snack. ” "As for mincemeat, I don't know how to make it either." "The recipe for mince filling has many variations. You can mix dried fruits with candied fruit. You can match it in any way you want. And I think the fillings of moon cakes should not be directly suitable for glutinous rice balls. After all, glutinous rice **** are cooked. If you have the relevant recipes, As for the formula, I think the previous formula may not be applicable now. ” "In the early years, this type of dessert would be very sweet. At that time, people ate less sweets. In a sense, the sweeter the dessert, the more delicious it is." "Today's customers usually can't accept such sweet snacks, so you may need to make slight changes to the recipe." Zheng Siyuan gave his sincere advice. Qin Huai also gave his sincere answer. "I don't have a recipe." Zheng Siyuan was stunned. "And I can't make mincemeat either." Zheng Siyuan was stunned again. "To be honest, I had never made glutinous rice **** before yesterday. Last night I went home and tried making glutinous rice **** for the first time." Zheng Siyuan was immediately petrified and put a question mark on his head. ? "But I want to try it. Mr. Gong said that he had eaten the mince-filled dumplings made by your master for his birthday many years ago. The taste is still unforgettable." "When I visited his house last night, his wife also agreed with this. She said that even if she only ate it once, she still remembers the taste to this day."
"I think the glutinous rice dumplings that two people have remembered for so many years and are still fond of now must have its merits. It must be very delicious, very worth studying, and very worth making." "Zheng Siyuan, are you interested in studying it with me?" Zheng Siyuan said nothing. He wanted to tell Qin Huai that there was no such thing as studying dim sum. There is no recipe, no direction, and no description of the specific taste. What can such hard research produce? He even wanted to persuade Qin Huai to just practice the same snack. His practice method of hitting a hammer here and there, practicing this today and that tomorrow, is a bit too wild even if it is a wild way. But Zheng Siyuan knew that the reason why he didn't say it immediately was because he was shamefully moved. He had no interest in mince filling at all. He just wanted to practice the crepe wontons and bubble wontons to a satisfactory level, and then practice spooning for a while. If you insist on it for a year and it really doesn't work, give up and practice something else. Now… Gnocchi like this sounds so great. "How to study?" Zheng Siyuan asked, "Where to start?" When Zheng Siyuan and Qin Huai first studied Sophora japonica steamed buns, they still had a recipe. Now we don’t even have a prescription, how can we research it? "I looked up the method and recipe of mince filling on the Internet last night before going to bed." Zheng Siyuan: "...I advise you not to believe it." "So after checking, I gave up and planned to come over today and ask you. You don't know. I'll ask your dad later when he comes." "What if my dad doesn't know either?" Zheng Siyuan asked. Qin Huai quietly glanced at Tan Wei'an who was working hard: "Just ask Tan Wei'an." Zheng Siyuan:? "What if he doesn't know either?" Qin Huai sighed: "Then there is no other way. We can only ask Tan Wei'an to change the relationship, or the two of us can exchange Zhiweiju." "There are so many Zhiweiju, the master must know about them." Zheng Siyuan: 6 Once the people at Zhiweiju have arrived, you will make clear arrangements for them. "I think it's okay." Zheng Siyuan nodded, "I heard my dad say that Master Zhou of Zhiweiju makes delicious mooncakes with five kernels." "He should be good at mincemeat." (End of chapter)
