Era: The cannon fodder in the group pet article went crazy
Chapter 60: Pickling
Wang Panpan's sleepiness has really been reduced a lot, and she no longer stays in bed. When she woke up, no one else was awake yet, so she went to the kitchen to make breakfast and then started washing duck eggs with warm water.
She will prepare it today, and it will taste delicious when eaten with porridge.
Gradually, everyone gathered.
Eat breakfast quickly, then boil water in a pot, wash vegetables, chop vegetables, light a fire, cook what needs to be cooked, wash with hot water, and don’t be afraid of wasting firewood. After all, this morning is real.
Pickled sauerkraut:
800 kilograms of cabbage were cleaned and put into a large pot for blanching. A large jar was cleaned and sprinkled with wine. Salt was sprinkled on the bottom and the blanched cabbage was put into it. Cover it with a lid and press it for more than 20 days. It should be edible. It should be stored in a cool place. Two large jars were placed.
Recalling these steps, they found them simple and began to prepare.
Next is the kimchi. There are too many steps and the sauce is also difficult to make. If you get it wrong, it will be ruined.
It's literary and artistic. I can't remember how to make it fragrant for a moment, and the amount is too large this time, so I have to be careful.
In order to avoid waste, I can only go and ask someone for help.
"Pingping, I'm going to ask Aunt Niu to teach us how to pickle cabbage. Do you want to come with me?" Wen Yi watched Wang Panpan processing the salted duck eggs without asking her. Ma Juan was processing the cabbage carefully, picking off all the rotten leaves and leaving the good ones.
Li Pingping, who loves to go out, is her first choice.
"Okay, I'll go with you. I also think we bought too many things, and it would be a waste if we don't do it properly." Li Pingping had only watched her mother do it before, but had never done it herself. Now that she has joined in, she feels it's quite messy.
"Bang bang bang, Aunt Niu, do you have time? We would like you to teach us how to pickle Chinese cabbage." Wen Yi went straight in and saw Aunt Niu doing housework with the children playing nearby.
She handed over the gift in her hand, which was a pound of candy, as a token of her thoughtfulness.
"Why are you so polite? It's just neighbors helping each other, take it.
Just wait for me.
I'll ask my daughter-in-law to come and look after the children, otherwise these troublemakers will make a scene." Aunt Niu didn't envy the educated youth's things. Instead, she thought they were too polite and treated them the same as villagers.
"Aunt Niu, please don't refuse. Please accept it. It's a gift from us. Otherwise, we would feel embarrassed to have wasted too much of your time." Li Pingping insisted on handing the thing over and would not allow it to be refused. She liked it this way.
And no matter how nice the villagers are, they still have to be so modest. After all, giving gifts is a polite thing to do, and even if you take it out and say it's an equal exchange.
Treat the gentlemen first and then the villains.
"Okay, thank you then." Aunt Niu saw that they were not pretending and accepted it.
"Xiaoguo, come and look after your children quickly. Wen Zhiqing and the others want to talk to me about something, so I'm leaving now." Aunt Niu shouted into the house. Her daughter-in-law was making clothes for the children. She couldn't afford to buy too much cloth, so she patched up the clothes for another three years.
"Mom, you go first. I'll finish sewing soon and will take good care of them." The daughter-in-law Xiaoguo agreed. She was satisfied when she heard about the educated youth giving gifts. She agreed very quickly.
After hearing the response, Aunt Niu went back with Wen Yi and the others.
"Wow, you guys are quite good at living life, and you make a big show of it. All right, let's get started!"
Aunt Niu sighed that these children are down-to-earth. The educated youth who came before were not bad people, they were just lazy and unwilling to do these things.
When winter came and there was nothing left, they went to the villagers' houses crying to buy food. They could not say anything, after all, they were not their parents, so they could only share a little with them.
"Look, take fresh Chinese cabbage, remove the outermost wilted leaves, and cut the cabbage into four pieces lengthwise. Do not remove the cabbage roots completely, and keep the inner leaves intact."
Aunt Niu started to demonstrate while doing it. She was not helping for free, because Wen Yi brought a pound of sugar to treat her.
"Find a clean, oil-free bowl, put the chopped Chinese cabbage in it, and then sprinkle salt evenly starting from the outermost layer."
"These cabbages need to be placed well and marinated overnight to allow excess moisture to come out. When applying salt, every layer should be covered, especially the thicker parts of the cabbage roots where you can apply more salt.
Wait until the cabbage becomes soft tomorrow, then wash your face with clean water to wash away the excess salt and dust on the cabbage. "Aunt Niu said that this is a necessary step because of its benefits.
"Let me teach you how to make chili sauce first. Then you can spread it on the cabbage. It will be delicious.
Peel the apples and pears and cut them into small pieces. Peel and wash the garlic. Wash and cut the ginger into slices. Wash and cut the onions into small pieces. Pound them into a paste. Then add appropriate amounts of chili powder, salt, sugar, and seasonings, stir well to make chili paste.
Tomorrow, pour the glutinous rice and chili paste into the cabbage, and spread it evenly on the cabbage starting from the innermost layer, making sure to spread it all over the inside and outside. "After arranging the tasks, Aunt Niu took the lead and started working. After all, these are delicate jobs that need to be done seriously.
When they looked at Wen Yi, they felt it was powerful and troublesome!
Come on for the winter rations.
Li Pingping sighed, she had never done these things before, it turned out that her mother had so many things to do every year. Those delicious foods did not come for free.
Wang Panpan thought it was great that she could learn a new skill, and then she wouldn’t have to ask others for help when she wanted to eat kimchi.
Ma Juan thought that since this thing used such good ingredients, it must be delicious. She would definitely eat more, otherwise it would be a shame for her to wash so much cabbage.
Everyone has their own ideas.
In the next two days, Aunt Niu kept helping and didn't leave. She pickled everything for them, which made Wang Panpan and the others feel guilty.
Finally, I thought to myself that I could only wait and send some gifts later.
Next, pickled garlic, mustard greens, platycodon...all kinds of pickles were also pickled.
Aunt Niu is indeed an experienced person. Under her guidance and help, Wang Panpan and the others looked at the large and small jars in the house and felt a sense of accomplishment. Not to mention the things stored in the cellar, these were enough for them to eat for a whole winter.
Also, Wang Panpan's salted duck eggs have been pickled, and she found a place to put them. She originally wanted to put them in the space, but it was not suitable, so she had to let them pickle first.
"Aunt Niu, you've worked hard. Thank you for taking the time to help us these two days. You must accept these things, otherwise we will be embarrassed to invite you again in the future."
Wang Panpan has been deeply loved by Aunt Niu these days. The petite and delicate girl's previously dark skin has become white, and her pair of deer eyes look at you with such innocence. She likes such children.
So Wen Yi, Li Pingping, and Ma Juan felt that since Aunt Niu liked Pan Pan, it was most appropriate for her to deliver the things. What they feared most was arguing.
"Panpan, Aunt Niu will be angry if you do this. I have eaten a lot of delicious food here these few days. I am just helping out. You are the ones doing all the work. Why are you still so polite?" Aunt Niu was helpless. The child was grown up and sensible. If her child went out, he would not be able to reciprocate.
There is an inexplicable distance, but I feel that she is very close to me and can be treated like a relative. But she never takes advantage of you and can see your efforts.
The three people over there saw that Wang Panpan was a little weak and hurried forward to persuade her.
"Aunt Niu, please accept it. We'll feel relieved if you accept it. We don't need these little things. You can take them back to please your family." Ma Juan put the things directly into Aunt Niu's backpack.
This was something Aunt Niu brought here specially for chestnuts because she had exchanged cloth with Li Pingping. She had a lot of good stuff, so when she heard that Aunt Niu was short of cloth, she offered to exchange.
Now it is convenient for Ma Juan to act decisively.
"Hey, you guys." Aunt Niu wanted to say something, but the children closed the door, fearing that she would throw something in.
Aunt Niu smacked her lips, and for a moment, felt helpless.
"Hey, Aunt Niu has helped us so much and she's still unwilling to collect the things. She's really helpful."
"Yes, I found that the villagers are actually quite nice, but at the beginning, the educated youth did not do well."
Wang Panpan was thoughtful. People cannot stand on their own standpoint and arbitrarily judge others, whether they are people or things.
"Yes, come to think of it, we have received a lot of help from them, and we don't know how to repay them."
"It's okay. At worst, we can wait until the New Year to give a New Year gift to those who are kind to us. It will also help to build good relations with the village."
