Luo Yong first heated up a pot of hot oil, then took a can of stinky tofu from the donkey cart.
After slightly draining the water, he put the pieces of stinky tofu into an iron cauldron and fried them. mobile network The method of making stinky tofu for frying is slightly different from that of stinky bean curd.
The fermentation step is omitted because the fermented tofu is crispy and cannot be fried into stinky tofu.
You only need to soak the tofu directly in the old brine.
Can.
The hot oil in the iron cauldron bubbled, frying the pieces of stinky tofu to a sizzling sound.
At the same time, waves of stinky fragrance also floated on this winter street.
"What does it smell like?"
People living nearby and businessmen from other places soon asked about the smell.
"Ouch, it stinks to death" someone shouted there.
"I think it smells weird."
Some people are born with a liking for this smell.
"Why do I smell like someone is cooking shit?"
This is very imaginative.
"Burn the dung," someone said on the side.
"What dirt?
Your dirt is fried in lard?"
"Let's go, don't argue, let's go take a look."
It has just arrived in February, and it is still snowing in many places on Hedong Road.
Although it has not snowed in Lishi County in the past few days, the weather is still very cold.
In the afternoon, the streets were deserted.
Luo Yong and Tian Chonghu set up a stall on the street to fry stinky tofu.
After a while, many people came out of the alleys on both sides of the street to watch the excitement. , and not long after, people from various guest houses came over to see what was going on.
"Sanlang, what did you do?"
A good pot of oil was used to fry that smelly thing.
Many people in the city felt that it was a pity.
"This thing is called stinky tofu.
It smells stinky and tastes delicious."
Luo Yong said, using bamboo chopsticks to pick up a piece of stinky tofu that had just come out of the pot, took out a pair of scissors he had prepared in advance, and cut the piece of stinky tofu with a few scissors.
Cut the piece of stinky tofu into several small pieces and put it in a stoneware bowl.
Then he took a spoonful of the sauce prepared yesterday from the nearby clay pot and poured it on it.
He handed it to everyone and said, "Try it." look" A young man standing closest to Luo Yong took the pottery bowl, and with the determination to save some face for Luo Sanlang, he would swallow it no matter how unpalatable it was.
He picked up a small piece of stinky tofu and put it in his mouth.
"How does it taste?"
Many people around him were staring at him, with different expressions on their faces, some were curious, some were frowning, some were forbearing, and some were showing sympathy.
"It's delicious."
The man finished eating a small piece of stinky tofu, nodded, and handed the pottery bowl to the person next to him.
""At this time, many people did not believe what he said.
"Let me have a taste."
Some people were attracted by the smell and couldn't wait to taste it.
The smell of stinky tofu is actually just the smell produced after a long period of full fermentation using specific materials.
Some people are naturally fond of this smell.
"It's so delicious.
How can you sell this stinky tofu?"
After the strong man with the beard tasted a small piece of stinky fermented bean curd, he reached out and touched his hairy chin with a look of unfulfilled interest.

"Two yuan for one penny, five yuan for two pennies."
Luo Yong did not expect that the business of stinky tofu would be opened so soon.
After all, the taste of this stuff is quite strong, and many people cannot accept it.
"Give me five cents."
This man is actually a rich man.
For five cents, although you can't buy a bushel of corn at this time of year, you can still buy eight or nine liters.
"Okay."
It was five cents and twelve yuan.
Luo Yong gave him an extra piece as a topping, and gave him thirteen pieces of stinky tofu that had just come out of the pot.
He filled a large bowl with a large stoneware bowl and poured a lot more on it.
The sauce is served, a bowl of stinky tofu is sold, and five cents are earned.
Once someone starts the business, the rest of the business will be much easier.
Many people heard the man say it was delicious, and they wanted to try it.
Some people would go get the free tasting, and some people would simply Spend a penny or two to buy one and try it yourself.
Tian Chonghu picked up the game very quickly.
He learned how to fry tofu in a few moments and took over this job.
Then Luo Yong just sold the tofu to collect money.
When no one bought it, he would chat with the onlookers. , tell them about the big and small things happening in the city these days.
Luo Yong had previously sold a batch of fermented bean curd in Chang'an City, but it probably didn't become popular because of its weird taste and narrow audience.
Recently, the Luo family killed several pigs and saved a lot of lard, so Luo Yong began to think about getting some stinky tofu to sell.
After all, deep-fried stinky tofu is more fragrant and looks better than stinky fermented bean curd.
It is also very tasty when topped with sauce and seasonings.
I think there will be a market for it.
I heard that this fall and winter, there are quite a lot of pig raisers in their Lishi County area.
They all followed the Luo family’s example and bought boar piglets and bred them, and then fed them with hot food twice a day.
In this way Pigs do grow faster than before.
When these pigs are ready for slaughter, the local pork supply in Lishi County will suddenly increase.
In order to prevent the price of pork from falling too much, it is natural to work hard to find sales.
If the sales problem is not solved well, many Pig farmers will suffer.
In any case, once lard is available, stinky tofu can be fried and sold.
There should be no need to worry about not being able to buy oil in the future.
Today is the first time I set up a stall, and the scene is not very popular.
There are many people watching the excitement, and there are more free tastings.
Not many people actually pay for it.
This is mainly because the local people’s spending power is generally low.
Even if they can accept it, Due to the taste of stinky tofu, not many people are willing to spend a penny to buy two small squares of stinky tofu to eat and play.
When it was getting dark, Luo Yong and the others were about to close the stall.
Those who were supposed to try something new had already tasted it, and those who wanted to watch the excitement had almost seen it.
Seeing that it was time to eat dinner, everyone naturally also They all dispersed.
There were only a few children in ragged clothes, still looking around at the entrance of the alley not far away.
In the afternoon, when Luo Yong and the others just came out of the stall, they gathered around the stall.
Later, several people living nearby told them not to delay Luo Sanlang's business, and then they They all hid at the entrance of the alley.
It stands to reason that Lishi County is developing well now, with merchants coming and going every day, and it is considered prosperous compared to surrounding towns, but there are still many poor and run-down families in the city.
Just like their Xipo Village, even if Luo Yong taught them the art of making tofu, there would still be some families who couldn't help them.
Some of them were because the adults in the family were not decent, like Tian Chonghu's parents, and some were like the Feng family's grandma.

Those who are mentally disturbed, and some who have no adults at home at all.
In this county, the situation should be similar.
"Come here."
Before closing the stall, Luo Yong waved to the entrance of the alley. "" As soon as the children saw Luo Yong waving to them, the clever ones immediately rushed over.
The children behind them hurriedly followed, for fear that they would not be able to separate things if they ran too slowly.
"Go home and bring a pottery bowl."
Luo Yong said to them.
"Oh."
Asking them to go back and get the pottery bowls would definitely mean giving them something.
The children immediately rushed up and ran to their homes.
After the children ran away, Luo Yong added a fire to the stove under the iron cauldron, and then took a jar of miso from the donkey cart.
There was about two to three centimeters of lard left in the iron cauldron.
Luo used the remaining lard from the fried stinky tofu, poured some bean paste into it and fried it, and then added the unused stinky tofu sauce today.
The sauce was also poured in, and a pot of fragrant fried sauce came out.
When the children came over with stoneware bowls, Luo Yong gave each of them a spoonful of sauce.
The lard in the iron cauldron has been burning for half a day, and the sauce made with it cannot be said to be very healthy.
It's just that these children from poor families can't even taste the lard all year round, so why do they care?
Healthy or not, I was so happy to get this spoonful of fragrant lard sauce.
So that evening, in Lishi County, many children walked home through the streets and alleys with half a bowl of sauce in their hands.
When you meet some people, you have to ask them: "Where did you get this shit from?"
"Given by Luo Sanlang."
These children were very happy.
"Ouch, this Luo Sanlang even sells and gives away things, can he still make money?"
Many people were worried for Luo Yong.
Luo Yong's character was not good, but he was still too young after all.
Some people don't know how to make careful calculations in their daily lives.
They are doing a small business and are selling and giving away.
Don't lose money.
"Mommy, try this sauce, it's delicious."
A child came home holding the small half bowl of sauce and shouted as soon as he entered the door.
"Why are there so many?"
A woman with a yellowish face and sagging skin came out of the room.
She was immediately surprised when she saw the oily half bowl of sauce.
"I ran the fastest, so Saburo gave me more.
Those who came behind me definitely didn't have as many as me."
The boy said proudly: "Mom, let's dip it into the pancakes.
This sauce is so good.
Eat, I’ll go there tomorrow.”
"It's not good to go every day.
Your sisters are working at home, so you don't want to run outside all the time."
The woman said, took the small half bowl of sauce and went into the house, and got some noodles.
Take out the bread and share it with several children.
This is their supper today.
This is because the girls have now found a way to make money, and they can only eat two meals a day.
How could they be like this in the past.

Those people who went to Taiyuan City to make bed-pans for people all came back these two days.
Everyone said that they made a lot of money. " "I heard that Luo Sanlang's disciples went to Chang'an City to give people a kang."
"Chang'an City is too far and not cost-effective."
“You still know whether it’s a good deal or not” "How could I not know" "Auntie, why don't you eat again?
Eat more."

I went to Baidu and found that it is true.
It has been revised.
