Chapter 409 409. The best rice in the world
What does delicious rice look like?
Originally, the Song family grew indica rice from the south, which had a harder taste. In addition, the selection of varieties is mediocre, so the taste is really bad, on the same level as the rice in the supermarket that costs one or two yuan a pound.
But this year Song Tan came to plant rice. Considering that his family was old, he chose japonica rice, which is often available in the north.
Japonica rice is shorter and fatter, with a soft, delicate and sweet texture. Except for making egg fried rice, which is worse than indica rice, everything else is pretty good.
The most important thing is that in order to grow two crops of rice this year, their family planted rice seedlings earlier than normal.
Japonica rice will be more cold-resistant, and the amylopectin structure will appear sweeter under large temperature differences...
In short, it depends on local conditions.
Because of this, Song Sancheng muttered for a long time, with one central thought -
He has become accustomed to eating hard rice over the years and does not like the soft and sticky rice.
What's more, based on their farm experience decades ago, harder rice will make you hungrier.
It was Song Tan's words that convinced him:
"Dad, twenty years ago when you were harvesting rice, you had to pick it up in bundles at home. Now we have machines. We hired people to do the endless work... Now that Qiao Qiao is so old, you still don’t want to work as hard as we did when we were kids, right?”
“Eating something soft is less burdensome on the stomach.”< br>
No, this is the kind of rice popsicles that are rolling in the blazing stove.
The fragrance of rice permeated the entire courtyard, making everyone feel a little restless.
Even though Song Tan had just neatly chopped up a few watermelons to satisfy everyone's appetite, some people still stood at the door involuntarily, their noses twitching, like hungry puppies.
After smelling it, the female classmate returned to the living room emotionally, and then let out a long sigh:
"How else can I say that the fruits of my labor are the best? I think it’s probably the result of my work today. Because I worked really hard, why does the rice smell so sweet tonight?”
“I can eat three bowls of this rice just because of the smell!”
Normally, this would be an exaggerated joke. But everyone thought about the chubby belly after eating at lunch, and they all became curious:
"How sweet is it?"
The female classmate waved her hands: "This smell in the living room is even better than Not one tenth of what you can smell outside. "
"I'll go and smell it too!"
"I don't have much work to do today. I'm fishing. Did the filter disappear..."
Two classmates ran out.
Everyone waited for a while and found that no one came back. Turning around again -
"Good guy, Chen Zhou, you are eating secretly in the kitchen!"
"I didn't eat secretly!"
My old classmate is also a bachelor, He blocked the door of the kitchen directly: "This smell is too fragrant. Can't I stand over and smell it more?"
As soon as he said this, everyone looked at each other, and then they all rushed to the door.
Then he paused again.
They looked at me and looked at you: "Why do I think... the sweetness of this rice doesn't seem to be a filter added to the fruits of our own labor?"
Really? So fragrant.
The sweetness of rice is difficult to describe in words. It is a smell that makes people feel like they are pressed from the heart to the stomach...
The saliva...the saliva is coming out! Everyone struggled to maintain their sanity.
In fact, rice contains most starch, which is not high in nutrients. Eating too many carbohydrates will make you fat.
But...
"If you don't eat carbohydrates, you will become stupid, and I really love rice!"
"Me too!"
"Oh, let's lose weight tomorrow. I exercised today -"
As soon as he said this, someone else rushed to the kitchen door.
Just then, the rice in the big pot was boiling, and the seventh cousin was holding a ladle, scooping out the rice soup with familiarity.
The simple stainless steel basin is full of milky white rice soup. If everyone hadn't been reserved and didn't step through the kitchen door, they would have drooled into the basin. The seventh cousin also plans to make soup from this rice soup!
At this moment, he also took a deep breath: "Tantan has a way of growing things! Look, this rice is not the same thing as what we used to eat."
He cocked his beard at Grandma Qi proudly: "How about it? Go back to your hometown and enjoy your life. If I didn't have the skills, where would I eat such good food!"
The person who eats is light and healthy, and he is happy every day. He would not change it for a god.
Grandma Qi also swallowed.
But she was old, and her thoughts were a bit burdened. She looked at the crowd of people standing at the door, but she didn't say anything about drinking a bowl of rice soup first.
It wasn't until the seventh cousin filled the rice soup that it was almost full and put the lid back on the pot, the tangy aroma of the rice subsided a little.
Just a little, not much.
Looking at the person standing at the door again, he simply waved the big spoon: "Come on, go get the bowl and give you a bowl of rice soup to warm your stomach first."
This big spoon Even though we were sweating profusely on a hot day, no one thought it was a problem to warm their stomachs. At this moment, she just turned around and shouted loudly: "Song Tan, where are your bowls and chopsticks?"
Song Tan came over to take a look - although she was also a little greedy, her old classmates were very easy to kill. of.
It's just rice soup, drink whatever you want.
“Let me get it, it’s in the dining room cabinet——”
Before she even lifted her feet, some classmates rushed in impatiently, and soon they were holding the whole package again. The sex bowl is out.
So everyone in the family filled their bowls.
The milky white rice soup is rippling slightly in the brown paper bowl. Everyone is not too hot and even reluctant to move back to the living room for fear of spilling a little bit of the rice soup on the way...
Instead, he stood in the courtyard with a faint blue night sky, blowing his breath.
Aunt Lianhua knew about Xin Jun. Now she saw that several young men could not get out of the house all day, so she took an enamel tray with Double Happiness from an unknown age and filled it with Serve three bowls of soup.
In the kitchen, the considerate seventh cousin has used a few more large bowls to set aside a separate portion.
Just like that, the students drank the large pot of soup while blowing the hot air and "hissing, hissing".
It made Song Tan dumbfounded——
Conscience, this is really not the process she arranged! After all, Fairy Tan admitted that although she was picky, she didn't take it into account.
"I just finished eating watermelon and drank rice soup again. I filled my stomach with water. Are you still eating tonight?"
"You must eat!"
"Yes. ! I can eat the rice I pounded by my own hands!”
“If nothing else, I can eat three big bowls of rice!”
"I want to eat too..."
Okay, the soup has just been eaten, and everyone is chatting and getting greedy again.
Song Tan was also a little speechless.
I had to rush them into the living room: "Don't stay here, go and take a rest. Aren't you tired from the day?"
Until everyone entered the room, she Then he slowly wandered into the kitchen, then held his own bowl and drank in small sips.
How to say it?
Strangely touching.
Having been back for half a year, I can happily eat a bowl of rice today.
The seventh cousin is still thinking: "Next year I need to plant more rice, some glutinous rice, and some indica rice. The good indica rice is not bad, but the texture is different - I will specialize in making egg fried rice later. It must be very delicious. "
Today I read the book "After the whole network was hacked, I passed the postgraduate entrance examination at Tsinghua University", the heroine of Leziren is a fast-paced entertainment industry. It has a very green river feel, good hahaha. .
…
Also. And the update will be very late, so you can watch it tomorrow morning.
Start working out tomorrow! Everyone wishes me to hold on!
