If you rub fresh potatoes lightly with a spoon, the brown and gray outer skin will be rubbed off, leaving only the golden inside.
Among the kitchen utensils he ordered before, there was a mace knife. Xiao Nianzhi used this to cut the potatoes into pieces the size of red dates.
Cut potatoes need to be fried twice.
The first fry is crispy, and the second fry is tender.
After frying, adjust the sauce and stir.
The spicy crispy potatoes are ready to be plated!
There are so many ways to eat potatoes. Xiao Nianzhi felt that since it was almost the end of the month and the budget was not enough, he would just eat potatoes for a few days as a midnight snack.
When the potatoes are fried, the aroma begins to spread out endlessly.
After the rich aunt helped place the number, she would come over to help from time to time.
Xiao Nianzhi finished the first frying to control the oil, and then fried the next pot.
After detecting the oil, you can fry it again and then control the oil.
Aunt Fu and Aunt Cui saw that there was nothing they could do to help. Most of the students did not eat anything else when they had the midnight snack made by Xiao Nianzhi.
The two people discussed it and started to help put the plates.
The cost of potatoes is not high, and they are grown by the academy itself.
Therefore, there are sixty numbers for today’s midnight snack.
Most students who come for late-night snacks can get their numbers.
The problem is that the smell of fried potatoes wafts too far, so many students who don’t want to eat late-night snacks come here because of the smell in the middle of the night.
The fried potatoes are fragrant and fragrant when stirred.
Sprinkle the last handful of chopped soul green onions and put it on the plate.
The golden potatoes are stained with the red color of dogwood spicy oil, the freshness of bean paste, and finally embellished with a touch of green onion. Just by looking at the appearance, people's eyes can't help but linger.
What's more, its taste is also more attractive.
Wei Changting was a step slower today and was overtaken by other students.
After seeing the person clearly, Wei Changting screamed in his heart: I never thought that this person could also rush to the first place in line?
Wei Changting was second in line. When giving money, he smiled and asked: "Miss Xiao, what is the name of today's supper?"
He didn't ask every day, he just asked when he remembered.
Xiao Nianzhi also picked out words with good meaning.
Many of them were not called by this name originally, but after she changed their names, they were actually quite interesting.
Like today's crispy potatoes, after Xiao Nianzhi was asked, after thinking for a while, he nodded and said: "There is a golden house in the book."
All the students:...!
Oops!
If you call me this name and don't eat, it would be rude, right?
Wei Changting was stunned by the name. After reacting, he nodded at Xiao Nianzhi while holding the plate: "Miss Xiao has a great literary talent, I am very ashamed."
Xiao Nianzhi:?
No, are you serious?
Although Wei Changting can be regarded as a scumbag in the Imperial Academy, he is a scumbag in his studies and I am a scumbag in his studies. We are different!
Xiao Nianzhi was a little speechless, but he didn't want to make the situation awkward, so he shook his head: "No, no, I just think the name fits the occasion."
In fact, its real name is Crispy Potato, can you believe it?
Wei Changting quickly packed his meal and went back. Su Guiyu and two other friends also came over.
After sitting down, Wei Changting nodded with his head and gestured: "You can believe it, Xu Moci is actually the first in line. I'm really shocked!"
Su Guiyu glanced in the direction where he nodded and found Xu Moci sitting alone at the table in the corner, with no one else around him for the time being.
The atmosphere in the Imperial College is pretty good, but it is inevitable that the rich and powerful will stick together, and the poor will stick together.
However, there are also those who stand out, and Xu Moci is considered a representative among the poor children.
He seemed to be close to no one.
However, Su Guiyu is not a nosy person. After seeing it, he looked away. To Wei Changting's words, he just responded softly: "Isn't it normal to come to eat when you are hungry?"
Wei Changting made sense when he heard it. He was just curious and soon talked about other things.
Today's crispy potatoes were oiled and added with dogwood spicy oil, so the spicy and fragrant smell lingered in the kitchen for a long time.
As a result, there were a lot of students coming for late-night snacks today.
At first, the rich aunt thought that sixty numbers was quite a lot.
Later I found out that it was just a drop in the bucket.
Those who came late could not eat, so they could only enjoy the aroma and eat some noodles, pancakes and the like.
After Xiao Nianzhi finished his work, he also ate crispy potatoes with the rich aunt and the others.
Fresh potatoes have high moisture and starch content, so they taste soft, waxy and slightly sweet. After being oiled, they have a caramelized appearance, and when paired with spicy sauce, they simply get better and better the more you eat them.
Moreover, potatoes also provide a feeling of satiety. Although it is not very long-lasting, at least you will have a very satisfying feeling of enjoyment after eating it.
That's the instinctive and subconscious way people relax after eating.
Although I mentioned oily stuff, it’s actually quite luxurious.
However, the oil and water in the cafeteria are not bad. They are pigs raised in the back of the academy, various vegetables grown by themselves, and oil squeezed from beans.
Therefore, whether it is pig fat or vegetable oil, there is no shortage.
Xiao Nianzhi doesn't fry food, but the canteen often fry some food.
For example, as a morning meal, there are often fried pancakes or sesame balls.
Xiao Zhou finished eating early and kept waiting for Xiao Nianzhi.
Xiao Nianzhi ate slowly at first, tasting the taste, summing up his experience, and seeing if there was any room for improvement in the future.
After summing up in my mind, I will eat a lot faster.
After entering autumn, the days are slowly getting shorter.
It was already nighttime and the sky was very dark. Xiao Nianzhi actually dared to walk on the night road inside the academy.
However, Xiao Zhou was worried.
Returning to the backyard, seeing that the lights in Aunt Yu's room did not turn on again, Xiao Nianzhi said goodbye to Xiao Zhou and went back to the room.
Seeing the lights in the room turn on, Xiao Zhou turned around and walked back with confidence.
The next day, it was cloudy when I woke up early.
What is grown here in the back mountain is basically all kinds of vegetables, plus some beans.
Staple foods such as corn, rice, and millet are not grown here, and the academy also has its own large fields outside.
College staff also need to participate in those harvests, but they are not within the scope of Xiao Nianzhi's work.
There are a lot of fields there, so the academy doesn't actually have enough employees, and most of them still hire some day laborers.
Xiao Nianzhi had some free time for the time being, and the weather was not very good, so he went to study the new face mask formula he prepared yesterday.
These formulas need to be made before we know how chewy they are and how long they can be stored.
The weather was bad and Aunt Yu was unwilling to move. Manager Qiu and the others set out to collect grain early in the morning.
Because it was Xiao Nianzhi who brought up the farm tools issue this time, the academy was also assigned a group.
Although all the blacksmiths in the capital are working overtime, the sparks on the workbench never stop.
However, the low production efficiency itself means that the production volume cannot be supplied at all.
It would be great if the Imperial College can get a part of it.
There was no one to help bring food for the morning. After asking his aunt, Xiao Nianzhi planned to make some food in the small kitchen.
Second update at 19:00
