Shen Chenming smiled and tapped Qin Shuangshuang's face with his flour-stained hands, leaving a white mark. He looked very interesting and kept laughing.
Qin Shuangshuang knew he was playing a prank, so she touched her face and gave Shen Chenming a white look: "Childish! Make the dough quickly, I've already added water."
"Oh! Make it right away."
Shen Chenming stretched out his big hand and began to knead the dough vigorously. Qin Shuangshuang watched from the side, adding a little water wherever it was dry. Don’t dare to add too much, just add it slowly.
Looking at her cautious look, Shen Chenming felt that she was too cautious, so he didn't rush her and just let her do what she wanted. It feels very meaningful to cook with her and entertain our comrades.
His little girl is different. She is young, calm and suitable for being a teacher. Tomorrow he will accompany her to visit the town. If the little girl loves the profession of teacher, he supports her.
Teaching and educating people is a very noble profession.
Kneading dough is a laborious job. The little girl can't do it, so he can only do it.
He doesn't know how to do anything else in the kitchen. He has no problem making noodles and has plenty of strength.
The water is put in place, the dough is neither dry nor thin when kneaded, and the dumplings are just right.
Qin Shuangshuang asked Shen Chenming to take the dough out of the foot basin, put it into the basin, and sprinkle a layer of dry flour in the basin.
Tell the man who looks very curious: "I will put the dumplings one by one into the footbath to avoid having no place to put them."
Shen Chenming turned around and looked around. There was really no place to put it. Putting it in a footbath was the best choice.
The little girl can really take advantage of it. In order to make this meal, she brought everything out and used it.
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say."
He had no objection to the little girl's arrangement, he was just a tool.
The pressure cooker beeped again. Qin Shuangshuang ignored it, thinking that ten minutes would be enough, and the radish cubes would definitely rot.
After looking at the sun outside the kitchen, he made some calculations and helped Shen Chenming make some ingredients first, leaving him to slowly roll out the leather bags alone.
He pulled out a piece of dough, rolled it into a long strip, pulled out the ingredients one by one, and motioned to Shen Chenming: "Do it."
Hearing these two words, Shen Chenming stood frozen reflexively, his face calm and composed, and his eyes bright.
Qin Shuangshuang looked puzzled and kicked him lightly: "Why are you in such a daze? I want you to start rolling the leather."
"Ah?" Shen Chenming woke up from his state, his expression relaxed, and he smiled, "Girl! Those two words you just said are orders we often receive.
An emergency mechanism will appear as soon as you hear those two words. Can you try not to say those two words to me in the future? "
"Can."
Qin Shuangshuang also didn't expect that saying the word "do it" in front of Shen Chenming would bring about a conditioned reflex engraved in his bones.
It should be heard often when performing tasks. As soon as these two words appear, it means that he has to move out as quickly as a cheetah.
The way he looked just now was completely different from the one he was in now.
Those two words were sensitive words for him, so he had to be careful in the future and not say them again, so as not to cause him tension and anxiety.
"Thanks!"
Shen Chenming whispered his thanks in a serious tone.
Qin Shuangshuang smiled brightly at him and deliberately teased: "Stop talking nonsense and quickly roll out the dough to make dumplings. What are you thinking about?"
"Yes! Leader! Promise to complete the task."
The little girl was joking with him, Shen Chenming also gave a military salute and started joking with Qin Shuangshuang.
"Girl! In our house from now on, you will be the leader and I will be your soldier."
"Okay!" Qin Shuangshuang grabbed the pill and agreed happily, "I am the leader, so I have the final say. You are my soldier. Do you want to hit wherever I point?"
"That's for sure." Shen Chenming picked up the rolling pin and began to roll out the dumpling wrappers awkwardly, "As long as the leader orders it, he will complete the instructions."
"puff!"
Qin Shuangshuang laughed out loud and heard the pressure cooker behind her keep making a beeping sound. She glanced outside and felt that it had not been ten minutes yet, so she continued to take the potion.
Shen Chenming put the rolled-out dumpling wrappers together one by one, preparing to wrap them after more rolls were made. He is slow in rolling out dumpling wrappers and quick in making dumplings.
The little girl estimated that she would have something else to do soon, so she let him do it alone.
Look at his girl, she knows how to arrange her time.
When the time was almost up, Qin Shuangshuang stopped grabbing the ingredients, picked up the pressure cooker, and put the cooking pot on it.
"I'm going to start making braised pork. You start slowly and I'll help you when my hands are free."
"good!"
Shen Chenming didn't say anything, and felt very sweet in his heart. The scene of the couple working together to cook will be a good memory in the future.
The coal fire was no longer very strong, Qin Shuangshuang quickly poured the braised pork into the pot and stir-fried. There is nothing in it. First stir-fry some of the fat on the three layers of meat. It is too greasy and not delicious.
Shen Chenming was rolling out dumpling wrappers and watching the little girl's operation. He didn't know if she could make braised pork.
I guess she knows how to make dumplings, adjust fillings, and roll out dumpling wrappers. How can making braised pork be a problem for her?
Look at her holding a spatula and constantly turning the meat in the pot. Her gestures are very skillful, and she doesn't look like someone who has never done it before.
After stir-frying for a while, oil began to come out of the pot. Qin Shuangshuang took a bowl and put some in it. Then she put all the meat in. There was a little oil left in the pot, so she poured a spoonful of sugar into it.
Shen Chenming didn't know what she was going to do and asked curiously: "Girl! Why do you put sugar in the oil?"
Qin Shuangshuang kept stirring with a spatula: "This is called fried sugar color. The soy sauce is not yellow enough, so you have to use sugar color to color the braised pork. Otherwise, why do you think the braised pork in big restaurants is all red? It's because the sugar color is fried well. "
Fried sugar color? Shen Chenming really knows nothing about cooking. He also knows a thing or two about other things, but he really doesn't understand how braised pork is made.
When the sugar color was almost done, Qin Shuangshuang put the meat and ginger into the pot and stir-fried constantly to make each piece of meat evenly coated with sugar color. Then he added soy sauce, salt, and poured a little white wine.
I didn’t buy any cooking wine, so I could only use white wine instead. The soy sauce didn’t have light or dark soy sauce, it was the same, not very dark in color.
When finished, add water to cover the braised pork, add star anise and cinnamon, and cover the pot.
After it boiled, she picked up the pot and replaced the briquettes again. The meat at the bottom has been burned, and the meat will not be cooked until the pot is replaced.
Replace with new briquettes and stew the meat while waiting for the coals to come up. Simmering over low heat will make it more delicious.
Shen Chenming has been working. Sometimes he sees the little girl carrying heavy things and wants to step forward to help. Seeing that she seemed to be holding it with little effort, he held back again.
In the future, he will be away from home often, and the girl must learn various life skills. She always does everything for her, which is not good if she is too squeamish.
Be cruel and let her do it by herself, and she will get used to it.
There is no way, this is how military wives get through it. This is normal and no one can change it.
