Chief don't slap in the face

Chapter 45 Delicious but dumplings!

Song Guo took the sugar cane, imitated Xia Ye's way, bit the outer skin with his teeth, then tore it down to reveal the cane meat, and took a bite.

Crunch!Crunch!
As you chew, a burst of refreshing juice floods the taste buds.

"good to eat!"

Song Guo's eyes lit up.

"Uh, just chew a few bites, you can't eat the dregs!"

Seeing little loli swallowing the bagasse, Xia Ye hurriedly reminded her.

"Ok!"

The womb fruit took another bite, she thought it would be more exciting to eat this!
“Dumplings at night!”

Xia Ye plucked a handful of spring onions from the vegetable bed, nearly half a month's field trip made his mouth water, and he must make up for it.

Song Guo followed Xia Ye, went to the bamboo forest to dig a few spring bamboo shoots, walked half a circle around the forest, harvested some mushrooms at the roots of several big trees, and then returned to the cave kitchen.

"There is no fresh meat, use bacon instead, it is probably a bit salty!"

Xia Ye took out a piece of smoked ham from a large clay pot, cut off about two catties, and threw it in again. He thought the stone knife was too blunt, so he simply used the tactical ax as a kitchen knife.

Minced the bacon, then went to the mountain stream to wash the spring bamboo shoots and mushrooms, as well as the onion, ginger and garlic, chopped them as before, put them in a pottery dish, then picked up a pair of bamboo chopsticks and started stirring clockwise.

"Ah?"

Song Guo saw that Xia Ye picked up a small clay pot the size of a fist, dug a handful out of it with a stone spoon, and poured it into the meat filling.

Out of curiosity, Sigo approached it and sniffed it, and a pungent smell immediately flooded into the nostrils.

"Ah! Ahh!"

Song Guo immediately sneezed a few times, tears were about to come out from the pain.

"Haha, this is Sichuan pepper powder, for seasoning!"

Xia Ye was amused. When he mentioned seasoning, he suddenly slapped his head: "Why did you forget the soy sauce?"

"soy sauce?"

Song Guo scratched her hair, her little face was full of doubts, what the elder brother said, many names had never been heard before!

Soon, Xia Ye brought a clay pot, the mouth of which was sealed with yellow mud, he smashed it carefully, cleaned it, and then opened it.

A strong aroma of soy sauce pervaded immediately.

Two heads, one big and one small, immediately came to the mouth of the jar and looked around.

"It's okay, there is no foam, it proves that it is not broken!"

Xia Ye took out a spoonful, smelled the smell, and licked it with the tip of his tongue.

Soybean originated in China and was one of the earliest staple foods. It’s just that it’s too easy to fart if you eat too much, but there are many by-products of it.

Soy sauce is made from soybeans. The process is very simple. It is steamed, dried in the sun, allowed to mildew to produce mycelia, and then screened, then added with salt water, and sealed for storage.

Xia Ye's uncle is a chef. He dislikes the fact that industrial soy sauce destroys the original flavor of the ingredients, and adding various additives is not good for the health. So after having a child, he started to make soy sauce and vinegar condiments.

After hearing and seeing, Xia Ye has understood a little bit. Although he can't make top-quality soy sauce, daily use will make the food full of flavor.

You know, in this era when even salt is saved, there are no condiments.

Impurities had settled, Xia Ye took two spoonfuls and poured them into the meat filling. With stirring, the color immediately deepened, making it look much better.

"Want to try it?"

Xia Ye handed out the wooden spoon.

"want!"

Song Guo took a big gulp, his entire expression froze instantly, then he opened his mouth, stuck out his tongue, and the soy sauce mixed with his saliva flowed down like a waterfall.

“So salty!”

Song Guo rushed to the mountain stream with short legs, and rinsed her mouth for a while, but soon she forgot the taste, and stared at the snow-white flour, dumbfounded.

"what is this?"

Watching Xia Ye add cold water and knead the flour into a ball, Song Guo felt amazing.

"Flour!"

As a rural child, Xia Ye's housekeeping skills are at full value, and after a while, thin dumpling wrappers are rolled out one by one.

"Wow!"

Song Guo exclaimed.

"Alright!"

Pick up the meat stuffing with bamboo chopsticks, put it in the middle of the dumpling wrapper, and then fold it in half. After pinching the edge with your thumb and forefinger, put the dumpling in the tiger's mouth with your left hand, and then use your right hand to force it.

A beautiful dumpling came out of the oven.

"to learn!"

The wombat fruit couldn't wait, but the craftsmanship was terrible, either the meat filling was too much and it was crushed, or there was only a thin skin left.

Xia Ye remembered the situation when he first learned how to make dumplings, but unfortunately, things are different.

Add water to the stone pot, add firewood to the stove, ignite the fire, put the dumplings when it boils, and push a few times with a long-handled wooden spoon to prevent sticking to the bottom of the pot.

Sizzle!

Siunguo stood by the stone pot, watching the churning dumplings one by one swelled and rounded, drooling, the aroma of the dumplings came out with the heat, killing the gluttons.

"Big brother hurry up!"

The dumplings were on the table, and Song Guo was holding the chopsticks, but the sensible one didn't pick them up.

"Began to eat!"

Xia Ye picked one up and put it in the little loli bowl.

"Ah!"

The walnut-sized dumpling, the wombat fruit swallowed in one gulp, jumped up after being burned, exhaled and inhaled quickly, but couldn't bear to spit it out.

"Be careful!"

Xia Ye tasted one, and it was indeed a bit salty.

Song Guo didn't think that when he bit the dumplings with his teeth and chewed them a few times, the taste of the meat filling immediately permeated his taste buds.

The freshness of the mushrooms, the crispness of the spring bamboo shoots, and the aroma of the bacon are perfectly blended together under the blending of several seasonings, forming an indescribable taste.

Little Lolita was intoxicated, she had never eaten such delicious food.

Ahhh!

Ahhh!

Ahhh!

Xiao Siguo couldn't stop talking, and he ate 23 pieces in a row before slowing down, but the chopsticks were still moving like rabbits and cranes.

"It's a pity that there is no vinegar!"

Xia Ye smacked his lips, he knows how to brew vinegar, but it's a little more troublesome, and he will talk about it when he has his own tribe and time.

"vinegar?"

Song Guo's ears moved.

“Eat with dumplings, super delicious!”

Xia Ye thought of a roommate in college, he ate dumplings with soy sauce and ginger, it was heresy!
"Vinegar, where can I find it?"

Little Loli stuffed a dumpling and asked vaguely.

"There is no such thing in this era!"

Xia Ye sighed, ketchup, salad dressing, bean paste, sweet noodle sauce, and the most important barbecue sauce, none of them. For a foodie, life would be worse than death. Fortunately, I can make it myself.

Almost all of the more than 100 dumplings went into Little Lolita's stomach. After she finished eating, she lay on the bed with her belly bulging like a pregnant woman who was eight months pregnant.

"Help me up, I can still eat!"

Looking at the dumpling left on the plate, Little Loli was not reconciled.

"I will make it for you if you want to eat it in the future. Don't eat too much at one time, or you will suffer from indigestion!"

Xia Ye made a cup of hawthorn water and fed it to little Lolita: "Come on, let's digest!"

"Hee hee, big brother is really nice!"

Little Lolita smiled brightly, she had never been this happy since she left the tribe.

"You are the first person to eat dumplings in this era!"

Xia Ye teased, because he was safe, the fatigue accumulated these days also began to break out, after a simple wash, the two of them got under the covers.

In the middle of the night, Xia Ye heard the sound of sobbing, and realized that he was holding his little loli to have a nightmare. Thinking about it, a four or five-year-old little loli must have suffered a lot when traveling alone.

Sleep soundly all night!
Early in the morning, Xia Ye opened his eyes and was about to stretch when he was startled suddenly and looked to the side.

The little loli is gone!

"gone?"

When Xia Ye saw the small bundle and the stone hammer in the corner, Xia Ye's frown relaxed.

The breeze is coming, and the bamboo forest is rippling.

Xia Ye walked out of the cave, took a deep breath, and a stream of moist air rushed into his nose. While moving his hands and feet, he searched for little loli.

"Isn't it because you still want to eat dumplings and go dig spring bamboo shoots and pick mushrooms?"

Xia Ye didn't find little loli in the bamboo grove, and when he came out, he saw a 'cub' squatting in the field ridges, slowly wriggling forward in the vegetable bed planted with strawberries.

"Ok?"

Xia Ye was puzzled, so he walked over quietly.

"Look where you're going!"

The little womb fruit was dressed in a little black bear's skin, squatting on the ground, carefully pushed aside the strawberry leaves, pinched off the caterpillars on them, and threw them into a small bamboo tube.

Behind her are piles of pulled weeds.

The morning sun gradually rises, and the warm sunlight sprinkles down, dyeing the small succulent fruit a layer of golden yellow.

There was a smile on the corner of Xia Ye's mouth, looking at that little figure, his chest was full of doting and joy.

This is a sensible little girl. She knows that she can't eat and drink for nothing, so she came to the vegetable bed early in the morning to weed and kill insects.

"Don't catch it, let's have breakfast!"

Xia Ye opened his mouth.

"Big brother?"

Little Song Guo turned her head and wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve, she was still holding a handful of grass in her hand.

"The bugs are caught, these strawberries must taste better!"

Xia Ye praised that the temperature in early spring was low, and the morning dew was very thick, which had already wetted the bear's skin, and the little loli's animal skin boots and trousers, which were about to be worn out, were already soaked.

"Whee!"

Xiao Siguo is sorry.

"Let's go, eat bird egg finger pancakes for breakfast, add ham!"

Xia Ye squatted down and wiped the dirt on Xiao Siguo's face.

"Oye!"

Sigo cheered: "I want to eat ten!"

"no problem!"

Xia Ye didn't plan to go home today because he had to make some preparations.

Although the strawberries are not yet harvest time, they can't wait any longer. The blood survival test is about to begin. When I come back next time, they won't be harmed by voles, and they will rot in the ground.

"Strawberry compote? What's that?"

Song Guo was carrying a basket, picking strawberries and asking questions.

"A snack that is even more delicious than candied haws!"

With brown sugar, you can naturally make a lot of sweets, and all kinds of candied fruit can definitely make those women swallow their tongues.

However, I don't sell it myself!
"Ah?"

The saliva of the womb fruit immediately gushed out, the candied haws was the most delicious snack she had ever eaten, and that strawberry candied was even more delicious than it?is that a lie?

With delicious food, there will be motivation. The little womb fruit in the skin of a little black bear works very quickly, and it doesn't feel tired at all. Xia Ye persuaded it several times, and child labor is not so squeezed.

"Have a rest?"

Xia Ye felt distressed.

"No!"

Xiao Siguo wants to eat candied fruit as soon as possible.

Seeing that the little girl was thirsty and drinking water, Xia Ye suddenly thought that there is another kind of snack that can be made, and strawberries are the raw material!
