Chapter 75 Mung Bean Cake and Red Bean Cake

Xu Lingyue randomly pulled some unknown grasses in the yard and went straight into the rabbit's nest.

Sure enough, the rabbit whimpered and started to eat, and it was very happy to eat.

It's really a hare, but it's also good, and it can be fed by eating grass.

Xu Lingyue was eating cucumbers at the side, watching the rabbit grazing, as if the two of them were competing to eat faster.

In the end, the rabbit finished eating one step ahead of her.

……

As night fell, Xu Lingyue went to bed early after dinner.

There are almost no activities at night here. Xu Lingyue originally planned to make mung bean cakes, but it was so late, and if the oil lamps were lit, it would not only waste the eyes but also the oil lamps.

In this way, she could only get up early the next morning to do it.

Xu Lingyue felt very tired and fell asleep as soon as she touched the bed.

The second day is coming soon.

Because she went to bed early the night before, Xu Lingyue woke up naturally before it was fully lit.

If you wake up, you have to get up.

She packed up and went to the kitchen to make mung bean cakes.

Maybe she got up too early, the Xu family was still quiet, and everyone else seemed to be sleeping.

She looked up at the sky, only to see that crescent moon was still hanging in the sky, Xu Lingyue couldn't help thinking, could it be that it's not even five or six o'clock now?
Looking at the sky outside, she really couldn't tell what time it was, but she was already up, and she didn't plan to go back to sleep.

Yesterday she told Mrs. Wu that it is better not to lock the kitchen door in the future, otherwise it will be too inconvenient. Come today, unless your door is unlocked, it can be seen that Mrs. Wu has listened to what she said.

First peel off the outer skin of the mung beans and red beans.

After cleaning, it will be steamed in a pot.

Fortunately, she had already learned the skill of starting a fire, and the fire caught fire after a while.

Put the mung beans and red beans in the pot separately, spread them out and steam them on high heat for three to four 10 minutes.

It was another long wait, and when the time finally came, Xu Lingyue lifted the lid of the pot and saw that it was almost steamed, so she put the mung beans and red beans on plates.

The next step is to mash it into mud. It would be great if there is a wall-breaking machine, and it will be muddled in a flash. She has no choice but to find the thing that was used to mash pepper powder that she bought before.

Of course, she has washed it before using it, and it will never smell.

The mung beans and red beans are already steamed, so they are easily mashed.

The next step is to stir fry in a pot until the water dries up.

There is no butter in this era, so she can only use lard instead, but it should be more fragrant with butter.

Put a small piece of lard into the pot to melt it, then pour the mung bean puree into the pot and stir evenly, turning it over and over again, this step is a test of arm strength, no, she felt her arm was already sore after a long time up.

After the lard and mung bean puree are almost blended, it is time to add sugar.

Seeing how happily Song Mianmian ate those sweet pastries last time, Xu Lingyue guessed that people in this era would prefer to eat sweet pastries. Of course, it might just be Song Mianmian who likes to eat them.

So Xu Lingyue plans to make two kinds, one is sweeter and the other is not very sweet.

In this way, half of the mung bean paste must be taken out first.

For the rest, she poured a lot of sugar into it. After stirring for a while, she took a little bit of mung bean puree and tasted it.

When the water is almost dry, you can take it out and let it cool, and the fragrance of mung beans will hit your face instantly.

This almost made Xu Lingyue's mouth water.

Then she used the less sweet part, and it was out of the pot soon.

The same is true for red bean paste. She made it into two types: super sweet and slightly sweet.

Soon, it was all stir-fried.

At this time, the first pot of super sweet mung bean paste has been cooled.

She took the cleaned mold and prepared it for pressing.

After a while, there were several styles of mung bean cakes in front of her. Looking at those mung bean cakes, Xu Lingyue felt full of accomplishment. It was also the first time for her to make mung bean cakes. She did not expect it to be successful. Could she not be happy?

The appearance has passed the test, and the most important thing is the taste.

At this time, the door of the kitchen was pushed open. Seeing what she was doing there, Mrs. Liu asked with some doubts, "Ah Yue, what are you doing?"

Why did my little girl get up so early today?What is this smell, why is it so fragrant!

Liu Shi smelled the fragrance in the air, and moved over curiously to take a look.

"Sister-in-law three, how about trying the mung bean cake I made?"

It's just a coincidence, the taster came here, and it was a coincidence that the Liu family came, Xu Lingyue handed over a piece of mung bean cake full of joy.

Looking at the yellowish pastry, Liu Shi was a little surprised, is this made by the younger sister?

She accepted it dubiously, and after smelling it, she realized that the fragrance came from the mung bean cake.

Then he took a small sip.

As soon as it entered his mouth, Liu's eyes lit up, the taste...

She glanced at Xu Lingyue in surprise, such a delicious pastry was made by her younger sister.

Seeing that she was eating but not talking, Xu Lingyue asked anxiously, "Sister-in-law three, how are you doing?"

She is still waiting for the result, if it doesn't taste good, she has to improve it.

"Ah Yue, it's so delicious." Liu said a little excitedly.

If this mung bean cake is sold, the cakes made by Qibao Pavilion may not be as good as those made by my younger sister. Although Mrs. Liu has never eaten pastries from Qibao Pavilion, she has confidence in her younger sister.

After hearing her words, Xu Lingyue was overjoyed.

Then, she let Mrs. Liu taste the red bean cake, and she also spoke highly of it.

But this Liu family seems to like to eat sweet things?Because she has a higher evaluation of the super sweet one, but not so high evaluation of the slightly sweet one.

Both of them like the sweeter one, which made Xu Lingyue want to make a super sweet one, otherwise she was afraid that no one would buy the slightly sweet one.

Liu Shi tasted the mung bean cake and forgot the time. Seeing that it was almost dawn outside, she said in a hurry: "Little sister, I'm going to make breakfast first."

Hearing this, Xu Lingyue nodded.

Then she picked up a piece and tasted it. To be honest, the slightly sweet one was quite in line with her taste, but the super sweet one was too greasy for her.

The mung bean cake made a total of more than [-] yuan, and the red bean cake made about [-] yuan.

She plans to taste these words, and if there are many positive reviews, she will make large batches and sell them on the street.

She made a few sheets of oil paper, packed four pieces of red bean and mung bean super sweet ones, and two sweet ones each. Xu Lingyue planned to give it to Song Mianmian to taste after dawn, of course There is also Song Mu, and Song's mother, who intuitively told her that Song Mu doesn't like sweet food, so the two slightly sweet ones are for Song Mu.

After packing, she put it aside first, and took out the rest.
