Chapter 61 The Bacon Rack

"What, do you want bacon?" Mother Yan asked suddenly.

A few cubs were playing at the side, and Yan Dashuang was talking loudly about bacon.He marinated these meats himself, ahem, although he only participated in a little bit.

Yan Yuan blinked, turned around and said, "Grandma, what is bacon?"

Mother Yan has also eaten bacon before, and this is not a very rare thing, but it is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and waste of firewood, and no one is willing to do it.

Yan Dashuang said: "Mother said, it is delicious meat, better than cured meat."

Mother Yan frowned, "Where's your mother? I went to buy meat again. If there is only some bacon, it would be a waste of firewood."

Bacon needs to be smoked with fire. Whether it is a small piece of meat or a pile of meat, the time for smoking is actually the same.In the past, there was a butcher in the village who slaughtered pigs. When his daughter-in-law was giving birth, he didn't sell the meat, so he smoked bacon for preservation.Later, his children bought full moon wine, and everyone in the village went, and there were a few pieces of bacon on each table.Mother Yan didn't think it was delicious, but it was still meat after all.

But the third daughter-in-law has nothing to do and what to do, can she marinate the meat directly?She touched Yan Xiaoshuang's head, and said in a low voice: "Xiao Shuang, tell grandma, why did your mother plan to bacon?"

Yan Xiaoshuang pursed her lips, thought for a few seconds, and said, "Because Guoguo likes to eat."

Mother Yan was taken aback, and turned her head to look at the chubby Yan Dashuang. Although Yan Dashuang also heard their conversation, she didn't understand the meaning of Yan Xiaoshuang's dumping on him at all. She proudly said, : "Grandma, I like to eat bacon." Not only bacon, braised pork, meatballs, fish-flavored shredded pork, but as long as mother cooks meat, he likes it.

How does Yan Dashuang know about bacon?Something crossed in Mother Yan's mind, but she didn't catch it, she naturally didn't expect Yan Xiaoshuang to lie, she just thought that Yan Dashuang didn't know where to hear bacon, so she insisted on yelling for Yun Yiyi to make it.

This Yun Yiyi is also a child who loves her.

Yan Xiaoshuang actually didn't know their evaluation of Yun Yiyi, but he was a little sensitive, and always felt that Yan's mother was not very friendly to her mother just now.

He lowered his eyes and said, "But grandma, we can't smoke bacon."

Yan Dashuang suddenly remembered this, and danced and said, "Mother said there is no bacon stand."

The two cubs seemed a little disappointed again, and the dull hair on their heads drooped down.

Bacon is so troublesome, Yun Yiyi cut some meat just for them.Although Mother Yan disagreed in her heart, she was trying to help them find a way: "Ask your mother if she needs it? I can ask the second child's family for help."

Yan Dashuang immediately said: "Need."

Mother Yan said with a smile: "I remember that the owner of the second child sells this, so he should be able to borrow one."

Yan Dashuang didn't know what the bacon rack was for, but he knew that with this thing, he could eat bacon, so he was very satisfied.

Brother Yan went to work today, and he won't be back until the afternoon. They were not in a hurry, and played around the village for a while before going back slowly to report the matter.

Yun Yiyi hugged the two cubs on her lap, a little surprised, "You guys are really capable, and you know how to help me solve the problem."

She had planned to use a few bamboo sticks to make a bacon rack by herself. After all, in her opinion, no one in this village had a bacon rack, and she didn't plan to ask anyone for help. She didn't expect that the two cubs would bring accidents surprise.

The store where Second Brother Yan is located seems to sell groceries. The bacon rack may not be used by the family themselves.

Yan Dashuang was beaming, "I said it."

Yan Xiaoshuang gave him a cool look, but didn't speak.

The fact that there is no bacon rack at home was indeed said by Yan Dashuang himself.

Yun Yiyi smiled, "You are really smart ghosts, to reward you, let's make some snacks together tonight."

Yan Xiaoshuang immediately opened his eyes wide, "Snacks?"

Since the last time they marinated meat together, Yun Yiyi found that the two cubs like to do things together, and she also thinks that this can strengthen their hands-on ability, so why not do it?
Yan Dashuang focused on the dim sum, and asked softly, "What kind of dim sum?"

Yun Yiyi thought for a while, "Let's eat bean paste buns."

There are still a lot of bean paste fillings in her backpack, which are packed in packs, and she has never taken them out to eat. After all, there are finished snacks, and she is too lazy to pack them herself.This time on a whim, I wanted to give it a try.

What is Yan Dashuang's favorite food to gain weight easily?Sweet pastries are his favorite, such as red bean paste buns, custard buns, he likes them very much, and he nods when he hears that he can make them.

Yan Xiaoshuang was thinking about the bean paste buns he ate a few days ago, what shape, how many grams were filled, in case he would not make a fool of himself later.But after thinking about it for a long time, there was only a little vague impression in his mind.It's rare to look a little dazed with a confused look.

Yun Yiyi took advantage of this time to pour the ready-made red bean paste into the bowl. The red bean paste looked good, and some formed red bean shells could be seen, which meant that it was genuine red bean paste. The sweet aroma strikes, rich and fragrant, I really want people to taste it immediately.

In the other basin, Yun Yiyi had already poured flour. Ordinary flour is not easy to ferment in this weather, so she took out a pack of self-rising steamed bun flour in her backpack. As the name suggests, as long as the flour is well kneaded, the flour can ferment by itself. The steamed buns will be soft, soft and delicious.

This bag of flour may be made for children, and there are several cute molds in it.

Yun Yiyi poured warm water and began to knead the flour.

The two cubs had already washed their hands and rolled up their sleeves to their elbows, waiting for orders.

Naturally, Yun Yiyi would not let the child come to knead the flour, otherwise the flour would be everywhere and it would be difficult to clean up.The flour was sticky, so she wet her hands so that the flour would not stick to her hands. If there was too much water, she would add more flour, and if there was less, she would pour some water.

The self-raising steamed bun powder gradually became a large dough under her hands, and it was visible to the naked eye that it was fermenting.

That's about it.

When she turned her head, the two cubs were looking at her with burning eyes.

Yun Yiyi laughed: "Do you know how to make bags?"

Yan Xiaoshuang pursed her lips and said nothing.

Yan Dashuang said: "Niang Jiaowo."

Yun Yiyi said: "Okay, I'll make a red bean paste bun first, you guys look carefully."

She lowered the kneaded flour so that the two cubs could touch it. She wanted to make a bean paste bun in a regular way, but when she saw the mold beside her, she had other ideas in her mind.

Yan Dashuang also saw a few toys next to him, which were made of iron. He had never seen such a thing before, and thought it was very novel, so he picked one up and played with it over and over in his hand, "Mother, what is this?" thing?"

There was confusion in Yan Xiao's eyes: "Xing Xing, Duck?"

"Yes, this is the mold for making red bean paste buns, look at it."

Yun Yiyi didn't explain too much, after all, show them once, and they will understand.She took some flour and kneaded it into a ball, flattened the flour, and then put some bean paste in the middle to wrap it up. At this time, she took out the star grinding tool and pressed it on the flour, and a huge star pattern appeared.

This looked so interesting, Yan Dashuang was attracted at first glance, he patted his hand on his trouser pocket excitedly, wanting to try it immediately.

Yun Yiyi saw it, "Da Shuang, go and wash your hands again."

Yan Dashuang obeyed obediently, and when he came back, he took a small piece of dough and kneaded it. At first, he put in bean paste filling according to Yun Yiyi's method, and then pressed down the mold.

This mill has several, besides the star, the duck, and the bunny and the fish.The two cubs have read too many albums painted by Yun Yiyi, and they don't think it's against harmony, they just think it's very fun.

Yan Xiaoshuang also made a lot of little ducks. At the beginning, the bean paste buns made by the two cubs were somewhat abstract. Gradually, they seemed to be proficient, and they were getting better and better. Finally, the little rabbits Yan Xiaoshuang made were lifelike. ,very cute.Of course, the molds are carved well, but his flour is also getting better and better.

Yun Yiyi didn't use molds, and made a few small steamed buns at the side.

The cubs like to imitate adults, and the two looked at Yun Yiyi not using the mold, and put down the mold with blinking eyes.

The two of them made a lot of small animal red bean paste buns in one go. At this time, they were a little tired of aesthetics and wanted to make something interesting. The two cubs used to like to play with clay figurines. Wrap bean paste stuffing and pinch it carefully.

Yun Yiyi didn't bother them to create, she saw that the time was almost up, so she struck a match and started a fire, then boiled water and put the pot.

The water boiled in a while, and when the pot started to steam, she put the bean paste buns made by the cubs in the pot.

The two cubs were still pinching steamed buns, and they were very happy to see Yun Yiyi start steaming bean paste buns.

"Mom, when will I be able to steam it?"

Yun Yiyi wondered about it for about 10 minutes, and she said, "It takes a cup of tea."

A cup of tea is equal to 10 minutes, which Yun Yiyi mentioned when telling the cubs about the time.

Yan Xiaoshuang seemed to remember it, and nodded solemnly. Yan Dashuang also vaguely remembered that this time was very short, so he speeded up his hand, planning to make a great work in the second pot.

Yan Xiaoshuang was pinching a duck. He made the duck's head first, and then rubbed out the duck's body and feet. It really looked like that.

Yan Dashuang made a round head, then a bigger and rounder body, and two long and flat oval shapes beside the body.

Yun Yiyi took a look at it and praised: "This duck is so well done, I almost took it for real."

This is naturally a way to coax the cubs. Although she is usually strict with them, she also has a lot of words to praise, hoping to give the cubs a sense of accomplishment.Sure enough, Yan Xiaoshuang's cheeks were bulging, and the cheek on the right was still a little red, and she became more serious.

Yan Dashuang on the side seemed to be encouraged and worked harder.

Yun Yiyi stepped forward, wanting to praise him too, but looked left and right, but couldn't see what he had done.
