    ?

    Grandma led me through the crowd all the way, and finally finished shopping in the whole market.  Miraculously, I didn't feel tired today.  It may be that eating and walking can reduce the burden on the human body?  ?  ?

    Buy some daily necessities, and bring a marshmallow for my sister, well, except that grandma doesn't let me buy candied haws, this trip is basically perfect.

    The way home always passes quickly, and I fantasize about it while walking. When I grow up, I will drive my grandma to go shopping and buy her a lot of delicious food.

    From time to time, recall the tofu brain, oil cake, and sesame candy that I ate today, and my heart will be very satisfied, and my feet will not feel tired. In a blink of an eye, I have already arrived home.

    "Sister, come and see what delicious food my brother brought you." I opened the door and walked in, facing the room.

    "Wow! Cotton candy!" My sister opened the door of the main room and trotted over. After taking the cotton candy I handed over, she stared at the cotton candy and smiled happily.

    "Grandma bought it, I'll bring it back for you from the street"

    "Thank you brother!" My sister handed the cotton candy to me: "Come on, we are half of each other"

    "No, you can eat it yourself. I have already eaten one. This one is specially brought back for you."

    The younger sister took the cotton candy and laughed happily.

    "Ren Tao, go and get the big sweet potato you dug up, and make something delicious for you at noon," grandma said standing at the kitchen door.

    "Okay, right now" I ran to the room where the sweet potatoes were stacked, picked up the super-large sweet potatoes dug a few days ago, and brought them to the kitchen.

    Grandma put the sweet potatoes in the water basin, poured half of the basin of water, and began to carefully clean the mud on the surface of the sweet potatoes.  I also squatted next to me and helped my grandma bathe the sweet potatoes.

    First pour the mud on the surface of the sweet potato with water. After the entire surface is wet, soak it for 2 minutes, and then wash it carefully.  Halfway through, I changed 3 pots of clean water to wash the sweet potatoes.  Sure enough, being big is more expensive.

    "Go and get the scale, let's weigh how heavy it is." Grandma said while wiping the sweet potatoes with a cloth.

    I ran over quickly, found the scale, and took it to grandma.  After weighing, it was finally determined that the sweet potato weighed 3 catties and 8 taels.  That's great!  This is how big it is!

    "Do you want to use it as a seed? It can grow so big. If you use it as a seed, you might be able to grow a bunch of sweet potatoes bigger than this." I made a suggestion.

    "No, this may have grown up for many reasons, and it doesn't grow as a seed. Look at the pile of sweet potatoes I dug up. They are all small. I also used some big sweet potatoes as seeds last year. It didn't work.  "Grandma said with certainty.

    "Come on, I'll make tamales for you, you go and play for a while, come over and help me light the fire later," reminded grandma.

    Anyway, I donĄŻt have anything to play now, so IĄŻll stay with my grandma in the kitchen. In case she needs my help, the main reason should be that IĄŻm looking forward to tamales.

    Grandma first peeled the sweet potatoes. Since the sweet potatoes are too big to handle, it took a long time to peel them.  Place the peeled sweet potatoes on a cutting board and cut into cubes.  Cut the sweet potatoes into pieces, put them in a Shau Kei, and put them aside for later use.  The sweet potato is half a shaukei. It seems that this steamed meat will turn into steamed sweet potato. I'm so worried.

    "The eggs were sold in the morning, go to the chicken coop to see if there are any freshly laid eggs"

    After I received the order, I ran to the chicken coop behind to look for it.  Hey, our chickens are pretty strong. In one morning, they laid 3 eggs!  After giving the eggs to grandma, continue to stay quietly and observe how grandma operates.

    Grandma washed the pork belly she had just bought, cut it into slices of about 3 mm, and put it in a basin.  Beat 2 eggs, then add cooked rapeseed oil, salt, soy sauce, bean paste, red chili oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, pepper, pepper powder, white sugar, a little white wine, and then stir well, marinate  a period of time.

    "Light up the fire, I'm going to start making it," grandma said to me after marinating the meat.

    After recovering from the focused expression, he looked away from the meat in the basin and started to light the fire.

    After the pot was hot, grandma poured a bowl of glutinous rice and a bowl of rice into the pot, and kept stirring with a spatula.  After the surface of the rice grains starts to turn slightly yellow, let me stop the fire.  Take the rice out of a large bowl and pour it into a sieve that has been laid with gauze in advance. This step is to let the rice grains dissipate heat as soon as possible.

    Grandma took out the stone mill and put it on the stove to fix it.  Pour the cooled rice grains into the stone mill one by one, push the stone mill, and grind it into rice flour little by little.  I wanted to help, but I was weak and my height couldn't reach the stone mill in the pot, so I gave up.

    Pour the ground rice noodles into the marinated pork and stir well.  Take out 4 clean large bowls and put them on the bottom of the bowls one by one.?Sliced ??sweet potatoes.  After placing the sweet potatoes, put the marinated meat slices on top of the sweet potatoes in turn.  A full 4 bowls!  In order to steam all the big sweet potatoes, grandma also bought 2 catties of meat!

    The next step is to steam it in the wok!  Add a lot of water to the pot, cover the steamer, put the steamed meat in the yard, cover the pot, and leave the task of burning the fire to me!

    "Don't burn too much, just keep the gas coming out, you watch the fire first, I'll go out for a while," grandma said and left.

    Burning a fire is a technical job. If it is too big, it is easy to burn the pot. If it is too small, it will not achieve the effect. It also needs to consider the full combustion of the firewood. Hey, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.  But thinking that I will be able to eat the long-awaited tamales later, I am no longer entangled.

    "Leidan, bring me some of your cotton candy." I shouted at my sister who was standing outside.

    "Brother, it's all over, it's over, look at it." After finishing speaking, the younger sister shook the bamboo stick in her hand.

    Hey, this kid!  Not to mention leaving a mouthful for my brother, I finished it so quickly!  Forget it, I really can't help you.  Sure enough, God still wants me to eat more tamales!

    Time passed by, and grandma came back from the outside. The white hot air from the pot mixed with the gradually thickening fragrance kept getting into my nostrils.

    "Grandma, try to see if it's steamed, I feel like the water is about to boil dry," I said with certainty and expectation.

    "Immediately, let me take a look." Grandma quickly lifted the lid of the pot, used chopsticks to remove the meat slices covered on it, picked up a piece of sweet potato, looked at it, and put it back.  Then he picked up another piece of meat, handed it over and said, "Try to see if it's done?"

    I dropped the torch, stood up in a jiffy, and walked to the chopsticks in only 2 steps. Looking at the trembling meat, I took a deep breath, and the spicy taste went straight to the depths of my soul.  Swallow back the saliva overflowing from the base of the tongue, stretch out your right hand, pinch the meat slices with your thumb and index finger, itĄŻs hot!  The scalding heat instantly transmitted to the nerves, I hurriedly put the meat slices into my mouth, for fear of losing the meat slices by mistake.

    While biting, I opened my mouth and exhaled hot air. The whole mouth was filled with the smell of meat, numb, spicy, fresh, soft, and hot. It spread from the tip of my tongue in an instant, mixed with a hint of sweet meat, and I swallowed it in one gulp.  At this time, I can recall the aroma of rice and the softness of glutinous rice.  Quickly lick off the remaining oil stains on the fingertips, so that the aftertaste on the tip of the tongue will not dissipate immediately.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
