Golden Fishing Village

Chapter 990 997. Seafood flavor (15)

Ao Muyang immediately contacted a bakery equipment supplier in Hongyang. He bought two mooncake baking machines and had them shipped over on the same day.

This machine requires a good heat dissipation environment and occupies a large area, so Ao Muyang found a vacant office in the village committee and stuffed the machine in.

The windows and doors were fully open, and the north and south were transparent, the east and west were bright, and the wind came from all directions, and it was majestic from all directions.

Old man Ao Zhiming came over swinging a palm-leaf fan to study it, then shook his head and left: "Young people, you are not reliable in your words, and you will mess around when you have a little money. Children nowadays don't know how to live! Lost generation!"

Ao Muyang said dissatisfiedly: "How can we, the post-80s, be lost? It's the post-90s who are lost."

Lu Wuyi raised his head and said: "Brother-in-law, how did we, the post-90s, provoke you? We have no problems at all, it's obviously the post-00s who are lost."

There were children in the village who came to watch the fun. When they heard that they had to bake snacks by themselves, they were very active and waited to eat the freshly baked mooncakes.

After listening to Lu Wuyi's words, several children nodded: "The post-00s are lost, we are the post-05s, and the post-05s are not the post-00s."

The opinions of many parties were unified. They bullied the fact that there were no post-00s present, and they unanimously determined that the post-00s were lost.

The process of baking mooncakes is simple. The machine, that is, the large oven, has been bought back. Just put the mooncakes in and turn on the power, but how to make mooncakes is still a bit difficult.

Ao Muyang had made dumplings, buns, wontons, and steamed buns, but he had never made mooncakes. He had to check online first.

Ao Mudong said impatiently: "What are you looking for? Can't we just go to the town and find a master to teach us? If it's my opinion, we don't have to do everything ourselves. We can find someone to do it. Anyway, we have money."

"You can't spend money recklessly." Old man Ao Zhiming leaned out of the window and shouted.

Ao Mudong also shouted: "This is not drinking heavily, playing cards and gambling, how can it be considered as spending money recklessly? This is doing business."

Lu Wuyi said energetically: "Finally it's my turn to show my skills. It's just making mooncakes. It's very simple. I can do it."

"Don't talk nonsense." Ao Muyang glanced at him.

Lu Wuyi was furious: "You are insulting me, brother-in-law, when did I talk nonsense? I am a very traditional person, very reliable, and never lax."

Ao Muyang waved his hand and said: "Be good, go home and clean up, don't cause trouble for your brother-in-law here, okay?"

Lu Wuyi went into the house angrily. Ao Muyang looked up the process of making mooncakes on the Internet. It was simple. After preparing the ingredients, knead the dough, spread the dough, stuff the mooncake filling into it, knead it into dough, and then use the mooncake clip to clip it.

But there are skills here. When spreading the dough, it is not flat, but needs to be thick and thin, so that the thickness of the mooncake skin is uniform.

It is introduced on the Internet that in order to pursue efficiency and beauty, mooncakes must be made with machines such as dough pressing machines, but Ao Muyang did not buy them. He felt that there were few mooncakes made in the village and it was not worth buying these things.

He decided to try it out, so he found a few women in the village who were clever and skillful to help.

The women were embarrassed: "We usually make dumplings and steamed buns, but we have never made mooncakes before."

"Practice is the only criterion for testing truth, so feel free to start." Ao Muyang waved his hand like a great man.

They had just poured the flour and milk powder together when Lu Wuyi came out with a tray in one hand. On the tray were a row of small mooncakes, with egg yolk on the skin, smooth and oily, and very delicate.

"Take a look." Lu Wuyi said proudly.

Ao Muyang cut open a mooncake, which was filled with jam, with even skin and full jam.

In this way, he was stunned for a moment: "You made it?"

"Of course." Lu Wuyi raised his head and said, "If it wasn't me, how could it be made by itself?"

Ao Muyang was surprised and said: "How can you make mooncakes? This is not your style."

Lu Wuyi said: "I know a lot of things, or rather, there is nothing I don't know, brother-in-law, you don't know me, if you know me you will be shocked."

Ao Muyang waved his hand and said: "Okay, okay, stop talking nonsense to me, come on, tell me, how can you make mooncakes? Have you worked in a bakery to earn money?"

"No, I really..."

"Don't talk nonsense, talk seriously, or I'll ask your brother Heilong to come and ask."

Lu Wuyi said unhappily: "Okay, okay, it's just that the Cao family bakes mooncakes every Mid-Autumn Festival, and I was forced to work since I was a child, so I learned it naturally."

"Damn, the Cao family really doesn't treat you as a young master." Ao Muyang said angrily.

This made Lu Wuyi a little depressed: "Hey, it's mainly because I'm diligent..."

"That's right, come here, come and lead the sisters-in-law to make mooncakes, work hard, you can bake one oven in fifty minutes, there are two ovens here, try to bake twenty-four ovens today."

"Oh my god, twenty-four ovens?" Lu Wuyi's eyes suddenly widened.

Ao Muyang said: "Yes, one oven can bake six ovens in five hours, two ovens in ten hours, isn't that twenty-four ovens? Do it for me, young man!"

After saying that, he was about to leave.

Lu Wuyi was anxious: "Where are you going? You can't leave."

Ao Muyang said: "I'll go prepare the mooncake filling, let's make seafood flavor."

There are a lot of seafood in the fishing village, Ao Muyang transferred a batch from the cold storage and asked Song Qiumin to take some women to work.

Fish filling, shrimp filling, crab roe and crab meat filling, and seaweed filling are the four kings he introduced. There are also abalone filling and sea cucumber filling. There are many varieties and they are definitely unique.

Seafood filling is a niche mooncake, which is produced in some coastal cities. Ao Muyang found a tutorial online.

Fish filling is the simplest. After killing and steaming the fish, pick out all the fish bones, put the fish meat into a blender, add cooking wine, green onions, ginger and garlic, mix well, and then add almonds, walnuts and other dried fruits. That's it.

Other methods are similar, but the shrimp does not need to be crushed. Sea cucumbers and abalone are used to cut into several pieces, and they cannot be crushed. They can be mixed with jam or dried fruits and stuffed into the mooncakes.

Soon, in the steaming heat, the first pot of fish mooncakes was ready.

The children in the village were waiting to eat. A oven can bake 120 mooncakes at a time. He took out a plate and distributed it to the drooling children, one for each.

Mooncakes, like other snacks, are best when they are freshly baked. At this time, the dough is still soft, and the milky aroma and sweetness of honey are escaping, making people drool.

When the heat dissipated a little, Ao Muyang took a bite.

The fishy smell of fish meat had been removed by the cooking wine and ingredients. It tasted good, but not very delicious. The freshness was so-so.

After the children ate it, they were no longer greedy. They smacked their lips and said, "It's just better than the five-nut ones."

Lu Wuyi handed them other fillings, and several children ate them voraciously.

Ao Muyang asked, "What filling is so delicious?"

"Chocolate." Lu Wuyi was eating it himself.

Ao Muyang waved his hand and said, "Mooncakes with chocolate filling are evil. Let's make seafood fillings. Hurry up and make them."
