Border Cook

Chapter 208 Grievance
The steamed buns were very hot right out of the pot. Xia Mingyue blew on them several times before putting them into her mouth.

The siu mai skin is rich in wheat aroma and very chewy, while the glutinous rice in the filling is soft, sticky and sticky. It is originally steamed with bone broth and now mixed with minced meat, it has a strong meaty aroma and rich taste. The refreshing fragrance of mushrooms, fungus and carrots sets off the aroma of the minced meat.

At the same time, because the minced meat has been stir-fried in advance to remove the fat, it will not feel greasy when you eat it, and it will not completely steal the flavor of other side dishes...

In short, the combination of glutinous rice and pork dumplings is just right. It tastes fragrant and delicious.

success!

Xia Mingyue had a clear idea in her mind, so she started to pack up all the remaining steamed buns.

However, this glutinous rice steamed bun is only delicious when eaten while hot. If it gets cold, the steamed bun skin and the glutinous rice inside will become hard and affect the taste. So Xia Mingyue planned to give the trial steamed bun to everyone for a taste.

Seeing Lu Qiyan at the door of the kitchen, Xia Mingyue waved at him, "Brother Lu, you're back? Come and try this steamed bun."

Shaomai?

Lu Qiyan had never heard of this kind of food before and thought it was very rare. He quickly washed his hands and took the plate from Xia Mingyue, "The name is quite special."

"Yeah, it looks pretty good." As he spoke, Lu Qiyan picked one up and put it in his mouth. After chewing it for a few times and swallowing it, he said, "This taste..."

Well, I need to eat another one.

After working the whole morning, he was extremely hungry. When he suddenly saw food, which smelled very fragrant, he swallowed it hastily.

Guilt, guilt...

He quickly picked up another one and put it into his mouth. Lu Qiyan chewed it a few more times and said, "It tastes great too."

It's really delicious.

The mouth is full of the aroma of glutinous rice and meat, and it is not greasy, but fresh and delicious.

Lu Qiyan put the third one into his mouth again, and the fourth one...

Seeing that the plate of steamed buns was reduced to the last one in an instant, Xia Mingyue swallowed back the words "Let everyone have a taste" that were about to slip out of her lips.

The siu mai skin and fillings are already fully prepared, and it’s quick to wrap and steam them right away, so there’s no need to waste a little time.

only……

Lu Qiyan looks very hungry?

Lu Qiyan had a hearty breakfast in the morning and ate a lot. Logically, he shouldn't have gotten hungry so quickly.

Moreover, it was a very cold day, and the hair on both sides of Lu Qiyan's forehead seemed to be wet with sweat.

Are you going out to do some heavy work?
Probably to help the soldiers who are in trouble at home and do what they can.

Xia Mingyue didn't think too much about it and just asked Jiang Zhuguo to help make the steamed buns.

When Lu Qiyan had finished eating the steamed buns, he licked his lips with satisfaction.

This steamed dumpling tastes really good, and the way of wrapping glutinous rice with dough is also very special.

As expected, Xia Mingyue can always come up with new and interesting things that surprise people.

I really hope that I can eat the delicious food made by Xia Mingyue for the rest of my life...

As Lu Qiyan thought about this, his eyes involuntarily fell on Xia Mingyue, who was making steamed buns in the kitchen, and he didn't look away for a long time.

Seeing this, Wu Jin, who was standing by, snorted.

A conspicuous bag is a conspicuous bag. And it is a greedy conspicuous bag.

My appetite seems to be even bigger than it is. I wonder if I will eat my family out of money one day...

It really worries the dog!

Xia Mingyue and Jiang Zhuguo were very skillful in wrapping the shaomai one by one. They quickly finished wrapping all the shaomai skins and fillings and placed them all on the steamer.

Both the upper and lower steamers are filled to the brim, firewood is added, and the steaming begins.

The aroma of siu mai soon drifted out along with the hot steam in the steamer...

The whole yard was filled with the aroma of glutinous rice and minced meat, causing everyone to slow down their work. However, when they realized it was lunchtime, they quickened their pace again.

Finish your work early so you don’t miss your meal!

After a cup of tea, the steamed dumplings are ready.

In order to ensure that the steamed dumplings were warm and delicious, everyone did not have to eat around a table properly. They just took their own bowls, plates and chopsticks, put the steamed dumplings on them, and enjoyed the delicious food.

Xia Mingyue even cooked a pot of tofu soup, using bone broth as the soup base. The white and tender tofu was cut into small strips. There was no need to add too many seasonings, just garnish with chopped green onions and season with salt, and it would be light and delicious.

It goes really well with the rich-flavored steamed buns.

The steamed buns were unanimously praised by everyone. Xia Mingyue was very happy. She also thought the steamed buns tasted good, so she ate them with an open appetite.

After eating seven or eight steamed buns and drinking a big bowl of tofu soup, Xia Mingyue even burped.

Lu Qiyan was also very full after lunch, but he finally stuffed two more steamed buns into his mouth before he was willing to give up.

After lunch and some cleaning up, everyone except the people on duty went back to rest.

Lu Qiyan was still thinking about the kitchen knife, so he raised his foot and said, "I'm going to go out for a while."

"Okay." Xia Mingyue nodded, and added at the end, "Then Brother Lu should come back soon."

After a trip to Xiaohezhuang, Xia Mingyue witnessed the difficulty of building a bridge. She knew that Lu Qiyan must be very tired. He finally came back, but he still had to help other people all day long.

Being a city leader is indeed not an easy task.

Hearing this, Lu Qiyan raised his eyebrows slightly, and after a moment said, "Okay."

After going out, Lu Qiyan went straight to the blacksmith shop and continued his unfinished work.

Manager Guo was helping out as an assistant.

The snow stopped at the end of the Chou hour in the morning, and the sun came out before noon, and the snow showed signs of melting.

The streets in Jinqiu County were cleaned actively by the merchants on the street. The thin snow remaining on the road was constantly trampled by pedestrians and turned into snow water.

The snow water seeped into the ground and mixed with the dust to form a thin layer of mud, causing many passers-by to walk carefully.

When the carriage is moving, it moves very slowly to prevent the horse's hooves from slipping.

Zou Fuquan and Manager Xue were sitting in it.

Manager Xue lifted the curtain on the carriage, looked at the street scene of Jinqiu County, shook his head and sighed, "Jinqiu County is a remote and small place after all. It is really unfair to let Shopkeeper Zou work here."

"Manager Xue, you are too polite..." Zou Fuquan's face was full of polite smiles, "It is my blessing to be able to work for the master. I just need to do my best. How can I feel wronged?"

"Sure enough, Shopkeeper Zou is the most sensible. When I met the master a few days ago, the master said that Shopkeeper Zou is very capable. When he first arrived in Jinqiu County, he took over only a run-down small restaurant, but now he has turned it into the most famous restaurant in the entire Jinqiu County. This shows how dedicated Shopkeeper Zou is to his work."
