A Farm Girl Traveling Through Time: Raising a Stunning Husband

"Bring the stuffing over here, I'll show you how to make it."

Shen Wu held a dough in his hand, scooped two spoonfuls of dough with a small spoon and put them on the dough, then closed his palms slightly and pressed the stuffing towards the center with the spoon. Then he put his hands down and pinched the dough like he was making dumplings.

Use one hand to pinch the folds and the other hand to spin the bun. After a few seconds, a plump bun will be formed.

Gu Zhou stared at Shen Wu's actions intently with a serious face.

Shen Wu was afraid that he wouldn't understand, so she tried it again.

Seeing that he was about to start, I said, "Take your time, don't rush. You will be able to wrap it very well once you get used to it."

While talking, Shen Wu did not stop the work in her hands. In the time it took her to raise her head and lower her head to talk, a bun was formed.

Gu Zhou was a quick learner. Although the filling always leaked out at the beginning and his hands seemed like two people controlling the buns, making the buns crooked, after making two, he could already see the shape of the buns.

Gu Zhou wrapped the buns very seriously. He put the skin and stuffing on them, and using both hands to exert force, a bun was formed.

Shen Wu was secretly happy when he saw that he had already mastered it.

It's like playing a nurturing game, picking up a poor son, and now she and the child are slowly getting in touch with each other, and making buns is one of the steps.

~~

With a helper to help pack things, things can be done very quickly. Although for her... there is no breakthrough in speed..., it is a good start to better integrate into ancient life.

She had already rolled out all the dough, and there was already a rack for the wrapped buns. She asked Gu Zhou to do the remaining ones, so that he could practice his hand at the same time. She was ready to put the wrapped buns into the pan and fry them.

"Don't worry, just wrap it first. I'll start frying it. When you're almost done, I'll be done frying mine too."

"it is good"

Shen Wu squatted down and put some wheat stalks into the stove as starter, then took out a tinder from his pocket, blew it gently and put it over to ignite it.

The fire is easy to start. Once there is a flame, you can add fine firewood into it. After adding some, continue to put the chopped firewood into it.

There wasn't much water in the pot to begin with, and the little water that was left was evaporated once the fire was turned on.

After the pot is dry, you can put lard in. The bottom of the pot is not flat, so Shen Wu roughly estimated how much he could put in and then put the lard in.

You can use more lard, not only to moisten the bottom but also the edges. Wait until the oil starts to smoke and you can put the buns in.

The oil became hot in a short while, and Shen Wu quickly took ten buns from the grate and put them into the pot, five in the middle and five on the sides.

As soon as the pot was put into the pot, Shen Wu quickly covered it with a lid, turned around, scooped a spoonful of water and a palmful of flour and began to stir.

The stove heated up quickly. After about a minute or two, Shen Wu opened the lid, picked up a wooden spatula, and lifted up a bun to look at the bottom.

The bottom has a thick layer of brownish brown burnt due to frying, so it is time to add water. Shen Wu first moved the buns to a different position to prevent the center from burning, and then stirred the water to prevent it from sinking to the bottom. After mixing it evenly, he poured it into the pot.

The flour water should cover more than half of the buns. After pouring this bowl, quickly cover the lid and wait for the rest.

Looking back in the direction of Gu Zhou, I found that he was still wrapping buns seriously. Although his movements were a bit slow, the finished products looked better and better.

After waiting for a while, about five minutes, she opened the lid to check. The time was still a little short, and there was still a small layer of noodle water in the pot.

Shen Wu closed the lid and waited for a minute. This time when he opened the lid, the dough was almost invisible. Only tiny dots of dough were jumping around between the buns. A fuzzy layer of dough had begun to form under the beads.

The last step is to open the lid and wait for the flour beads to disappear.

Less than a minute after the lid was opened, the dough beads disappeared, and Shen Wu began to use a wooden spatula to separate the buns to see if the dough was burnt.

All the dough is formed and can be removed from the heat.

Shen Wu found a large bowl at home and put three or four of them in at a time. After a few times, he had scooped out all the food in the pot.

Putting the buns aside, she quickly added lard to the pot, then put the buns in and covered it.

“I’m done.”

It just so happened that Shen Wu had just made new buns, and Gu Zhou had finished wrapping all the stuffing.

"How about trying it?"

Shen Wu handed Gu Zhou a pair of chopsticks, full of anticipation.

"Be careful, it will burn your mouth. Blow on it before eating."

"it is good"

Gu Zhou took the chopsticks and picked up a bun. The bun was very similar to the one he had eaten before, but this time the bottom was burnt brown and there was a silk-like burnt skin around the edges.

He blew on the buns obediently. The buns, fresh from the pan, emitted hot air that hit his face, but also carried the aroma of oil and flour.

After blowing for a while, the heat was not so strong. Gu Zhou gently bit one side. The dough was very soft and sweet, with vegetable stuffing inside, but it had a special flavor because of the addition of lard and pepper powder.

The first bite was amazing. The vegetable itself was moist, and it seeped into the dough during the cooking process. It was also fried in oil, so it was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The lard residue added to the filling gave the wild vegetable a special aroma with a crispy fragrance. The placement of pepper powder was even more eye-catching, making the filling a little numbing but not too much, making people want to have another one.

Hou Guzhu ate his first bite very quickly and finished the whole fried bun in just a few bites.

Meanwhile, Shen Wu had prepared the second pot of noodles and was waiting for them to finish. His face was full of anticipation as he looked at him and gave him some comments.

Gu Zhou felt a little embarrassed, glanced at Shen Wu and turned his head: "It's delicious."

Shen Wu couldn't understand what the little boy in ancient times was thinking. Children were like cats, so who knew what they were thinking? So he completely ignored Gu Zhou's reaction, and all he could think about was the delicious food.

Just because of this moment, she was thinking, what would happen if she made a living by selling fried buns? She didn't know if there was such a thing as fried buns in this dynasty, but judging from Gu Zhou's reaction, there should be no problem.

When the second pot came out, Shen Wu asked Gu Zhou to bring it to the main room to prepare for dinner. After the third pot was put into the pot, she helped to bring the soup over.

The baby has woken up and is now crying out in hunger.

Gu Zhou took over the rice porridge prepared by his younger brother and fed it to him, and asked his younger sister to go to the kitchen to help Shen Wu.

Shen Wu, who has been cooking for many years, naturally would not let a child help, so... he sent Gu Wei back to eat.

Gu Zhou saw her coming back with a big bowl of freshly-baked buns, and lowered his head to give his younger brother another spoonful of rice paste.

Gu Wei was very happy! Jiang Yu cooked delicious food again. Since Jiang Yu fell and woke up, she has changed a lot. Not only can she cook a lot of delicious food, but she is not as scary as before.

"Eat quickly!".

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Wei picked up her chopsticks and prepared to eat.

"Wait, did you wash your hands, little sister?"

Shen Wu's sudden interruption startled Gu Wei. She put down her chopsticks with a frightened look on her face: "No."

"There is water in the kitchen, go wash it and dry it quickly"

Gu Wei ran very fast as if someone was chasing her. She quickly washed her hands and dried them before coming back to show Jiang Yu.

After reading it, Shen Wu smiled at her gently and said, "Eat quickly."

The buns tasted delicious. Gu Wei ate five or six large buns and drank two bowls of rice soup before she stopped eating after being persuaded by Shen Wu and Gu Zhou. If she wasn't so full, she would have eaten more!!!

Shen Wu shook his head helplessly. If he didn't let her eat, it would feel like a hungry child. But if he let her eat, he was afraid that she would feel full. Seeing her eating again and again, he couldn't help but speak this time.

Gu Zhou also ate a lot, seven or eight big fried buns, and drank two bowls of rice soup, and he felt very full.

Seeing that both of them were exhausted, Shen Wu asked them to go back and rest for a while.
