Su Qingluan looked at her mother's obvious "I prefer you but don't tell anyone" look, and she couldn't laugh or cry: "Mom, I know you love me, but my younger brother and sister are still sick. Besides, you and my father are also sick." I want to eat it!”
"There are six in total!" Ms. Yang said with a smile, "Your father and I both ate. You are the one running around in the whole family these days, so there's nothing wrong with giving you one more! Besides, your younger siblings are just How old are you? You can’t eat that much!”
Even so, it was obviously partial in the end. She was afraid that the two children would cry, so Yang could only be careful not to let them find out.
When Su Qingluan heard this, she could only feel dumbfounded and moved to accept her mother's kindness, and went to her room to rest.
After eating two peaches, Su Qingluan leaned on the bed for a while. In fact, she didn't want to sleep directly at first, but she was really tired, so she didn't even take off her shoes. She just leaned on the edge of the bed in a rather awkward position, with her feet on the ground and her upper body lying on her side. Su Qingluan also fell asleep.
However, this position was uncomfortable after all. After sleeping for about half an hour, Su Qingluan was forced to wake up because half of her body was numb and she couldn't turn over.
After waking up, she looked at the position of the sun until she should prepare dinner for the night.
When they came to the kitchen, Yang and Su Guangfu were sitting in the yard, each guarding two small stoves made of mud bricks, with a small casserole sitting on them respectively, on which they were cooking soup and medicine. .
The entire yard was filled with the faintly bitter smell of herbs. Although it couldn't be said to be an attractive smell, it wasn't unpleasant at all - as long as you didn't drink it.
When Yang saw Su Qingluan coming out of her room, she smiled and asked, "Da Ya, are you up?"
Su Guangfu on the side was much more serious. He just raised his head and nodded silently to express "I see you", then turned around and stared at the two stoves in front of him.
Su Qingluan couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle when she saw her father looking like he was facing a formidable enemy, while Yang next to him teased unhappily: "I just remember to play with those useless wooden guys of yours. If it doesn't happen this time, Boil the medicine into a paste and see how I deal with you!"
Su Guangfu, the culprit who boiled two doses of medicine last time, said that he was so guilty that he did not dare to argue, so he could only look at the stove more carefully.
Su Qingluan looked at her father's "strict wife control" attitude and secretly shed tears of sympathy for him.
When Mrs. Yang saw her daughter walking towards the kitchen, she asked curiously: "Da Ya, what are you doing in the kitchen? Isn't it too early to make dinner?" In order to make sure that she had read the time correctly, she turned around and looked at the sun. head position.
Su Qingluan blinked and said with a mysterious smile: "Auntie, today's 'main course' is a bit troublesome, I have to prepare it in advance!"
"Why is eating so troublesome?" Yang frowned slightly, "Don't be too tired. Don't you have something to do tomorrow?" Tomorrow, a new round of "interviews" will begin again.
Su Qingluan smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I've been craving this dish for a long time." What she wanted to eat was none other than the light and delicious river shrimp-based delicacy - three shrimp noodles.
She walked into the kitchen and randomly took out two shrimps from the bamboo jar: Well, although they are not too small, it is already autumn. After the spring when shrimp seeds are most abundant, now we can only eat shrimp brains and shrimp meat. .
However, if you want to eat shrimp roe, the best time is in late spring or early summer - unfortunately, Su Qingluan had just traveled through time and had just recovered half of his life. It was really not the time to eat "Three Prawn Noodles" .
So now, the good "three shrimp noodles" are missing the "shrimp roe", leaving only the "two shrimps".
However, because there are no steps to process the shrimp seeds, it saves a lot of time compared to the original version of the three-prawn noodles - having said that, it is not that easy to make "shrimp toppings" that can feed five people.
Fortunately, Su Qingluan did not intend to make the toppings exactly according to the steps of three shrimp noodles. After all, the three shrimp noodles only have shrimp meat, shrimp roe and shrimp brain as side dishes. Although it is very light, it does lack some vegetables.
The sick patients in the family have lacked exercise in the past few days. If they don't supplement fiber...
Maybe there will be many difficulties when the grain cycle occurs every day.
Su Qingluan was heartbroken for the sake of "smooth traffic" for her family.
In this way, if other ingredients are added, the toppings that originally consisted of only shrimps will be more. Otherwise, the shrimp heads will be removed from less than three kilograms of river shrimps, and the remaining shrimps will not be enough for the whole family.
Although there have been some improvements, generally speaking, the shrimps need to be peeled off for this "Two Prawn Noodles".
So Su Qingluan peeled out all the shrimps, and the brains of the shrimps and the peeled off shells were directly fried in soybean oil to become shrimp oil. Facing the light, it can be seen that the originally bright yellow soybean oil has turned into bright red, with a very bright color. Fragrant smell - this is the freshly made shrimp oil.
But now Su Qingluan only sprinkled a little white pepper into the shrimps to make them fresh and remove the fishy smell, and did not fry them immediately - otherwise they would not taste good if they were left to cool down later.
She cut the carrots, green bamboo shoots, and lotus roots into small dices that were much smaller than the dice pieces, and placed them on three plates respectively. The three colors of orange, red, green, and white contrasted with each other, which was very pleasing to the eye.
The reason for choosing these three vegetables is that they are very crisp and tender. After being fried, they will form a rich texture that contrasts with the tenderness of the shrimp. The other reason is that the taste of these three vegetables will not change after being fried. Too much spicy or heavy flavor will rob the deliciousness of the shrimp. Instead, it can absorb the freshness of the shrimp oil and the taste of the shrimp because of its relatively bland taste.
The toppings for this kind of noodles are hot, so now Su Qingluan puts the prepared toppings aside for the time being, and turns around to prepare the noodles.
The noodles originally called "Three Prawn Noodles" need to be flexible and chewy, which can make the taste smoother and more chewy. However, this requires that the noodles should not be too thin and should not be cooked too high, otherwise the texture will be too soft.
However, considering that the audience for this bowl of noodles were patients who had not fully recovered from the cold, Su Qingluan changed his mind and planned to make the noodles softer and more delicate, otherwise they would cause indigestion. Not fun anymore.
Since it is shrimp noodles, it is best for the noodles to have the umami flavor of river shrimps. Su Qingluan rolled his eyes and replaced the water originally intended to be used with the dough with the "river shrimp bath water" used to blanche the shrimp shells. The soybean oil, which was originally intended to increase the flexibility of the dough, was also used in the freshly fried soybean oil. Shrimp oil as an alternative.
After such an operation, the dough, which originally only had a fragrant aroma, was dyed with a light umami flavor belonging to fresh shrimps, making it smell more attractive than before.
