Chapter 22: Do you want to sell this bun? I'll give you money.
"Damn it, the tofu buns are so delicious!"
The big meat buns are delicious, so the bald brother is a little mentally prepared.
Because the meat itself is delicious.
But it’s surprising to turn tasteless tofu into such fragrant tofu buns.
The tofu that is first stir-fried and then steamed has a tender and smooth texture that absorbs the soup. It tastes very similar to Mapo tofu.
But the taste is spicy.
The mellow aroma of tofu, combined with the rich and spicy seasoning, is surprisingly delicious.
Compared to the tasteless tofu itself, the deliciousness of the tofu buns that are now in your mouth will make people admire the chef's cooking skills from the bottom of their hearts.
After eating four buns, the bald brother was not satisfied. He licked his lips sadly, not enough!
(Please remember the 𝟔𝟗Book Bar website to watch the fastest chapter updates)
Turning his eyes, he saw a man passing by with a familiar bun, and he happily followed him.
He walked over unabashedly, startling the man holding the bun.
This man was the one who just queued up to buy steamed buns and followed the bald brother.
Seeing the bald brother walking directly towards him, looking like he was coming with bad intentions, the man was so frightened that he stood still.
He watched nervously as the bald brother walked towards him step by step.
"Hello, what's the matter?"
The man stammered and asked as he looked at the bald brother. Compared to the bald man who was strong and easy to mess with, he was so thin that he could be beaten to death with just one punch.
And it’s always a bit scary at night.
"Are you selling this bun? I'll give you money."
The bald brother raised a friendly smile and tried his best to look kind and asked.
He's actually a really nice guy.
It's just that the person who usually works is responsible for collecting debts, so he looks fierce. People who work in this industry need to look good, otherwise they can't intimidate people.
When he is not working, he tries to be approachable and polite.
But in the eyes of the thin man, this was a threat.
Although he saw the bald man talking nicely to the stall owner earlier.
But men are a bit timid and timid.
In order to avoid conflict, I silently cried in my heart and handed over the bun in my hand, and nodded with tears in my eyes.
Seeing that he was willing to hand over the buns, the bald brother excitedly took out two hundred cash from his pocket and handed it over.
"Give."
The bald man didn't notice the man's sadness after watching the buns being taken away. Instead, he walked and ate in a happy mood.
The man was holding two hundred dollars and couldn't laugh at all.
What's the difference between this and purchasing on behalf of others?
Ahhhhh! His buns!
...
Today is Saturday, and there are many more people coming to buy steamed buns than usual.
Of course, there were also many people who didn't buy the buns in the end.
Lin Zhou spent a lot of time closing the stall.
The diners who didn’t get the buns were so crazy!
It was already past ten o'clock when Lin Zhou got home. He couldn't help but feel happy when he thought that tomorrow was the last day of this week's mission.
Look forward to the rewards given by the system after the mission is over.
On the last day of selling steamed buns, Lin Zhou also paid great attention to the steamed buns he sold.
Carefully selected, ready to sell crab roe buns and pickled cabbage buns.
Go to the farmer's market early the next morning to buy the ingredients you need.
The making of crab roe buns is complicated.
It has to go through several processes, including crab oil making, skin soup making, stuffing making, skin rolling, kneading and steaming. Each process has strict requirements.
So Lin Zhou started preparing for the production after returning from climbing the mountain.
He had no helpers and had to spend a lot of time preparing alone.
The end of August is not the time when hairy crabs are on the market, so Lin Zhou only buys June yellow.
There is still a difference between June yellow and hairy crabs.
Hairy crabs are generally quite big in size. There are two ounces, three ounces, four ounces, and even half a pound. They look very fat.
Liuyuehuang is very small. If hairy crabs and Liuyuehuang are put together, it would take five to six Liuyuehuang to make one hairy crab.
But the price is much cheaper than hairy crabs.
Buying cheap small crabs to make crab roe buns would cost less, and he wouldn't feel so distressed.
Lin Zhou bought the small crabs in the morning. As soon as he came back, he put them in a basin and added salt to make them spit out sand. After carefully brushing them twice, they were ready to be steamed.
The steamer used to steam buns is just right for steaming crabs.
There were so many small crabs that Lin Zhou simply didn't have the patience to tie them all up. He just brushed and washed them, threw them into a steamer, covered them, and steamed them together after they were all brushed.
Steam the crabs over high heat for 20 minutes, then take them out and let them cool.
During this period, Lin Zhou cleaned up the messy ground left behind after brushing away the crabs.
The next step is to remove the shells and get the crab meat and crab roe without any technical content.
Two hours passed before Lin Zhou started frying the fillings.
Heat the pan with cold oil, scoop out a spoonful of white lard and throw it into the pan. It will steam instantly and start to melt quickly. When it is 30% hot, add minced onion and ginger and stir-fry until fragrant. Then add crab meat and crab roe and stir-fry. Until the crab oil comes out.
At this time, the kitchen was filled with the rich smell of crab.
Lin Zhouke had never fried crab roe in such a luxurious way.
I couldn't help but swallowed.
After adding Shaoxing wine, salt and white pepper for seasoning, the aroma becomes even more intense.
Stir-fry a lot of foam in the pot until it's golden, then beat off the foam, pour balsamic vinegar on it, and it's ready to serve.
Looking at so many crabs, and finally getting a bowl of crab roe, Lin Zhou couldn't imagine how delicious it would be to eat crab roe noodles after cooking the noodles!
When I think of crab roe noodles, the dough is ready-made.
It is not impossible to use steamed bun noodles to make a bowl of noodles. It will definitely taste good with this crab roe!
The more he thought about it, the more greedy he became. Lin Zhou's stomach began to growl.
Finally, he ate the fragrant crab roe noodles!
No matter how hard it is, you can't be a hard cook!
......
In the afternoon, Lin Zhou woke up and started to prepare the jelly filling for the crab roe buns.
The pork skin and old hen soup stewed in the pressure cooker before going to bed have been kept warm.
Now pour it out and use a meat grinder to grind the pork skin to make pork skin puree.
Then filter the chicken soup, put it into the pot, add the pork skin puree, boil it over high heat, and simmer it on low heat.
During this period, remove the floating foam.
When the soup is boiled to about a quarter, start seasoning. When it is thick, sprinkle with chopped green onions and remove from the pot.
Filter the soup while it is hot, put it on a plate, and stir it constantly. When the soup cools down and solidifies, crush it to make the jelly filling.
Finally, put the jelly filling and the prepared crab roe into the same bowl and mix them in a clockwise direction. Only then can the crab roe filling be considered successful.
Compared with the buns I made before, the crab roe buns are really the most complicated.
The preparation work lasted from morning to afternoon.
Next is the snow vegetable buns.
The ready-made snow vegetables I bought have been soaked until now, and some of the saltiness has been soaked out.
After the snow vegetable filling is fried, the next step is to make the buns.
The time for kneading the dough and rolling the skin is also the time for the filling to cool down.
Lin Zhou accurately grasps the time for each step, and does not waste time to increase his workload.
When making crab roe buns, the skin is thin because there is jelly in the filling, which can be said to be crab roe soup buns.
The most feared thing about soup buns is that the skin breaks and the soup leaks out.
Therefore, the skin rolled by Lin Zhou is also thick in the middle and thin at the edges.
This can prevent the bottom of the steamed buns from falling off, causing the soup inside to leak out before it reaches the mouth.
