Chapter 486 Snow Clothes Bean Paste (Requesting votes at the end of the month)
The aunt who was originally very old and a bit stooped when walking, now has wind in her step, and is actually a few minutes faster than the young adults who are trotting all the way.
This shocked the people who were walking back and forth on the street to deliver things. They even wiped their eyes to make sure that what they saw was real and not an illusion.
The people who were watching the excitement laughed again.
“People want face, and trees want bark, but some people are shameless and skinless, and they are not afraid that God will not see them.”
"How do people like this know this? They only know how to climb along the pole. They want to get some benefits without thinking about whether they will cause trouble to others."
"But then again, Mrs. Xia this time As the reputation spreads, there will be more troubles like this in the future... Hey! "
"Isn't it up to you to put aside these greedy thoughts? It’s because I’m thinking about things that I shouldn’t be thinking about, so there aren’t that many things!”
“That makes sense. Madam Xia is kind and can’t always cause trouble for others. Not only do we have to do it ourselves, we also have to follow her My family all told me..."
These words rarely entered the ears of Xia Mingyue, who was walking home along Xinghua Lane.
Xia Mingyue frowned slightly.
With such a good reputation, villains will be timid because of this, fearing the various involvements behind her and not daring to cause trouble again, thus ensuring her safety.
But at the same time, there are also some greedy people, who are like flies, easy to come over and make people very annoying.
Everything is a double-edged sword, with pros and cons. While you enjoy it, you also have to pay some price.
It seems that during this period, except for necessary things, it is best to stay behind closed doors as much as possible, and it is also best to politely refuse everyone who comes to the door.
Xia Mingyue made such a calculation, and after arriving home, she told Zhuang Cui, Qing Ju and others, while she began to stay at home.
In the next few days, Xia Mingyue stopped going out. Even the rice dumpling sales in the days before the Dragon Boat Festival were busy with Lu and others.
Seeing this, many people understood Xia Mingyue's situation and helplessness at this time.
After asking Lu and others about Madam Xia's current situation out of concern, and knowing that there was nothing wrong, the resentment in her belly was spread on those who did not know the sense of proportion and importance.
"Ms. Xia is a kind person. It is a good thing to be praised and rewarded by the Queen, but there are people who don't like her kindness and want to find some trouble for Ming Xia. It is really disgusting!"
"No, I don't know anything about myself, so I mention everything I have and don't have. When Lady Xia is the wishing tree in the temple, I have to say a few words about it personally. I don't care about you but I still feel unhappy. Put some green on your head and think you’re a green onion?”
“The county magistrate is the most serious official, and he has the opportunity to meet the saint every five years. Why, no one asks the county magistrate for help. They think Lady Xia is easy to talk to, and they just want to pick on the soft persimmons. "Pinch?"
"I am the most They don't care about what's on the plate, they only pick good talkers to bully. Don't let me see those people who are looking for trouble, otherwise don't blame me for not having a good eye on the kitchen knife in my hand!"
"I don't care about the others. We are not from Jinqiu County, but my whole family The young and old are all alive thanks to Madam Xia’s idea of preparing a vinegar-making workshop. Madam Xia is the savior of my whole family. If anyone makes Madam Xia worried, then I don’t want to take my life!” “… ”
Many people who couldn't bear to see people doing such shameless things started to say harsh things. Even Pei Chenghe specially arranged for some more cadres to increase patrols near Xinghua Lane.
After Shopkeeper Ge and Wu Xiong heard about this, they always walked around the neighborhood on weekdays to prevent some evil-minded people from causing trouble.
Therefore, those shameless people who want to find a way out can only temporarily give up their plans when they see such a battle.
The area around Xia Mingyue's house suddenly became much quieter, but considering that there were many changes after going out, Xia Mingyue still followed her previous plan and stayed at home for a while without anything else. It happened to be that she took advantage of this time to rest. Take a break and recover from the fatigue caused by being too busy in the past few days.
It's just a rest. Xia Mingyue is not very idle. Now that she has free time, she wants to get into the kitchen and cook in different ways.
This time it’s the sweet tooth’s home turf.
Snowy bean paste, use pure egg whites and beat them with a homemade egg beater until they become white creamy. When the consistency is so thick that the egg whites will not fall off even if the bowl is turned upside down, mix in starch and a little flour. After stirring evenly, wrap it with delicate bean paste filling and form it into a suitable round ball. Add 30% hot oil to fry it. When the fried skin is slightly golden and has a hard shell, you can put it on a plate and sprinkle some white sugar.
The whipped egg whites are mixed with flour and starch, and the texture remains fluffy. The slightly burnt skin on the outside is truly charred on the outside and tender on the inside, soft and fragrant. The bean paste filling is even more delicate and tastes soft and sweet. It's perfect as a dessert after a meal, as a snack with tea, or as a snack when you're feeling lonely.
For egg cake, separate the egg whites and egg yolks and beat them with the sugar until they are thick enough to be creamy, then mix them with the previously separated egg yolks and flour up and down evenly, pour them into the mold, and bake them in the oven. It takes just a cup of tea to be ready.
Xia Mingyue likes chicken cakes with a little crispy skin. When baking, she bakes a little more. The color is a little light brown when it comes out of the oven, but the texture is just like the skin. Slightly burnt, but soft and tender inside, full of egg flavor.
Because the sweetness is perfectly controlled, no matter how much of this soft and delicious chicken cake you eat, it will always feel like the first time you ate it. It is so fragrant and your appetite is so great that you can't wait to eat half of it in one go before giving up.
Xia Mingyue was very satisfied with the snow-coated bean paste and egg cake she made, and everyone else also liked it very much, so she simply freed up her hands to help the egg divider divide the eggs and beat the egg whites. Beat the egg whites in order to have one more bite.
Besides saying that, beating egg whites is indeed a laborious task. Without an electric mixer, you have to rely entirely on your hands to beat the egg whites, which takes half an hour without stopping.
Even Xia Mingyue, who has long been accustomed to throwing spoons and cutting blocks, has stronger wrist strength than most people, and it is still very difficult to do this.
Now that someone is here to help, Xia Mingyue is naturally happy to see the results.
And this kind of hard work finally fell on the strongest Mao Sanli.
And Mao Sanli also lived up to expectations. He beat egg whites effortlessly, even beating one bowl after another. His face was not red, he was not out of breath, and he was very relaxed.
“At this critical moment, it has to be Brother Mao.” Qing Ju praised.
Thank you all for your blessings to the second child in the family, and hope that the frail second child can be raised strong as soon as possible~
