Chapter 80: Making Jelly


There was still water in the mung bean starch.

Mu Shuangshuang took a piece of clean gauze and asked Xiaohan, Xiaozhi, and Yu Siniang to each hold a corner.

She poured the mung bean starch in the bucket into the gauze and closed the four corners.

Go up, Mu Shuangshuang said to Yu Siniang.

"Mom, help me find an iron hook."

The iron hook in Mu Shuangshuang's mouth is usually tied to a pole and is used to carry burdens.

It is found in almost every villager's home.

Yu Siniang found the iron hook without any effort.

Mu Shuangshuang tied the mung bean starch tightly with the rope connected to the iron hook, and then pointed to the rope hanging from the beam.

"Mom, let's work together to hang the mung bean starch on the rope.

Let it drain for a while and then I'll come back."

A rope is hung from the beam, which is used to hang things, especially freshly polished soy milk or rice milk.

Mu Shuangshuang chose to tie the mung bean milk with a rope with an iron hook, which is not only easy to put on, but also very easy to take off.

While waiting for the water to drain, Mu Shuangshuang went to the kitchen to prepare the sauce for the jelly.

Because there were not enough seasonings in ancient times, Mu Shuangshuang only chose the simplest ones, such as dried chili peppers, clear oil, garlic, chives, ginger, vinegar and sesame seeds.

For the time being, she only made hot and sour ones.

Xiaohan helped her light the fire, while Mu Shuangshuang diced the dried chilies, minced the garlic, and cut the chives into sections.

"Xiaohan, I'll leave this to you, Sister Huo.

It shouldn't be too big, otherwise all the dried chili peppers will be burnt later."

Mu Shuangshuang poured half a kilogram of oil into the pot at once.

Yu Siniang was shocked.

The price of clear oil from this farmer's house was about the same as that of meat.

It cost twelve cents per kilogram.

Mu Shuangshuang poured the oil into the pot and it was equal to the price of meat.

Six pence was spent.

"Shuangshuang, what are you going to do with this oil?

Do you want my mother to help you?"

Mu Shuangshuang smiled and shook her head.

She kept staring at the pot.

After the unique fragrance of the oil disappeared from the air, she asked Xiaohan to change the heat to a low heat.

When the temperature of the hot oil dropped a little, she started to put the oil into the pot.

Chop the minced ginger, minced garlic, minced green onion, and minced chili.

The oil pan mixed with these things exudes an attractive aroma, but the dried chili peppers in it are also very choking.

"Ah Sneeze" Xiao Han, who was lighting the fire, was not spared.

Instead, he kept sneezing.

When he raised his head, he saw his sister covering her nose and snickering.

Just as he was about to say something, he started sneezing again and again.

He had no choice but to cover his nose while continuing to observe the fire.

"It smells so good, Shuangshuang Aji, how could you make this?"

Yu Siniang's face was full of curiosity.

She didn't know when her daughter could even cook.

"I learned it from my fourth aunt.

I've watched her cook many times, and this mother can also do it.

She just used more ingredients this time."

As she spoke, the oil pan began to bubble.

Mu Shuangshuang quickly added pepper and three spoons of sugar.

After carefully stirring evenly, the simplest jelly sauce was ready.

After cooling, she sealed it in a jar and took it to town tomorrow. .

Making condiments was a small sideshow, but the real trouble was making jelly.

Mu Shuangshuang made a simple estimate of the mung bean starch hanging on the beam.

It should be only two pounds.

She added water to make the jelly, which should weigh about six or seven kilograms. .

Two ounces per bowl of jelly, after all calculation, you should end up with about thirty bowls, and you can earn a considerable amount of income.

"Okay, our most important moment is coming, everyone, please work harder."

Mu Shuangshuang used the ratio of drained mung bean starch to 1:6, so for nine taels of mung bean starch, she put six kilograms of water into the pot.

"Xiaohan, you leave the heat to my mother for the last step."

Mu Shuangshuang was worried that her first finished product would be a failure, so she was more cautious than usual.

After Yu Siniang started to light the fire, the fire in the stove became much more stable.

"Mom, don't make the fire too high, otherwise the jelly won't be ready."

Yu Siniang chose medium heat.

She saw her daughter holding a rolling pin and stirring the pot constantly.

When bubbles started to appear in the pot, Mu Shuangshuang opened her mouth before she could ask.

"Mom, the fire can be lowered, our jelly will be ready soon."

As soon as Mu Shuangshuang opened his mouth, several people in the kitchen stared at the pot, anticipating how the jelly would look when it came out for the first time.

But Mu Shuangshuang still stirred the contents of the pot slowly.

Gradually, the contents of the pot became transparent and there were more and more bubbles.

"Okay, the jelly is ready."

When everyone saw what was in the pot, it seemed that there was nothing special about it.

Mu Shuangshuang was holding a large wooden basin.

The wooden basin was very large.

It was usually used to wash clothes.

This time, it was cleaned and used to hold jelly.

Mu Shuangshuang put all the jelly in a wooden basin, which was placed on two benches, and waited for the jelly to cool before cutting it into the shape she liked.

"That's it."

Xiaozhi's eyes widened and she didn't come back to her senses for a while.

If it weren't for the scent of chili oil still lingering in the air, she would not have believed that this thing was made so quickly.

"You can say it, but it hasn't solidified yet.

It won't be considered complete until it solidifies."

"Sister, do you want to use that chili oil to mix this jelly and eat it?"

Pour the fiery chili oil into the jelly and eat it, it will be delicious.

"Xiaohan is so smart, but I still have one thing to do now."

Mu Shuangshuang said to the two little dolls with a mysterious look on his face.

"Whoever guesses it, sister will give you a reward tomorrow."

"I know, I know."

Xiaozhi raised her hand, "Clean the mill and don't cause trouble to Aunt Xiaoyun."

Not to be outdone, Xiaohan also spoke.

"Get rid of those bean skins and bean dregs."

Mu Shuangshuang nodded with satisfaction.

"That's right.

Sister will bring you delicious food tomorrow.

Since we borrowed Aunt Xiaoyun's place, we have the obligation to help her get back to her original state.

What it is like before cannot be changed because of our relationship.

As for those mung bean dregs, boil them into water and add some sugar.

They are good for clearing away heat and relieving fever. " When Mu Shuangshuang was grinding mung bean milk, she deliberately asked Yu Siniang why mung beans were so expensive.

She learned from this that most villagers had limited land, and usually they only grew things to satisfy their hunger.

Mung beans are not as good as soybeans, the yield is much smaller, and they are not as nutritious as soybeans.

There are fewer farmers growing them naturally, and accordingly, the price is slightly more expensive.

"That's great, we will have mung bean water to drink tonight."

Xiaozhi sighed at the right time, causing the remaining people to laugh.

It feels good to be together as a family, even if it’s just the mung bean skins and the mung bean water after grinding the soy milk, I feel very happy.

Mu Shuangshuang looked at the nice-looking jelly in the wooden basin in the corner, with a smile of satisfaction on her lips.

I hope that this time, what she makes can make a small amount of money
