Chapter 401 Turning into an egg
Especially those whose families have a lot of land, they hurry up and take their time, and almost the whole family goes into battle.
The children couldn't do much physical work, so they were responsible for throwing seeds in, burying sweet potato seedlings, or digging up the soil next to the cotton that had been growing for a while to catch those extremely disgusting soil silkworms that ate the cotton roots. .
In short, this is another round of busy work after harvesting wheat.
Sumulan also led the children to order sticks and plant sweet potatoes.
The land that was newly reclaimed last year has been carefully tended, and even took a rest for a season in spring. Now the land is already in some shape.
Judging from this trend, this year’s sweet potato harvest will be better than last year’s.
After all this busy work, the "Mai busy vacation" is also over, and classes in Ethnic Studies continue.
The three sisters Bai Shuiliu then went to the ethnic school to listen to classes and learn how to read, while Su Mulan started to dry the sweet potatoes.
Wu Ji now cooks most of the food for Wu Zhuoyuan and Wei, except for the dried sweet potato, Su Mulan kept it after discussing with them.
This is because Wu Zhuoyuan and his wife's home has limited land in the town, and the conditions for drying dried sweet potatoes are really not good. It is not as good as Sumulan's drying at home, which has the right time, place and people.
Secondly, harvesting sweet potatoes and drying the sweet potatoes is also a very important thing to maintain the relationship among the clan.
After all, her family is orphaned and widowed, so she still has to count on the villagers to lend a helping hand for many things.
Taking advantage of the hot weather right now, sweet potatoes will dry out quickly, so dry them more and store them in a sealed container to ensure that there are goods for sale in autumn and winter.
In addition to drying sweet potatoes, the most important thing that Sumulan needs to do in the near future is to "turn eggs". The so-called "changed eggs" are actually "amber eggs" in modern society. The method is similar to that of preserved eggs. Fresh eggs are boiled in a "mud soup" mixed with lime, salt and tea foam, and then coated with a layer of Keep the sawdust dry, put it in a cool and ventilated place, let it sit for about ten days, and then you can eat it.
It’s just that the preserved eggs are made from duck eggs. This place is located in the north, there are not many ducks raised, and the duck egg production is also small, so Sumulan chose eggs.
Moreover, the "varied eggs" made from eggs are completely amber, and the color looks brighter, but the fragrance is slightly less fragrant than that of duck eggs. However, preserved eggs do not exist here, and the "varied eggs" made from eggs "It's attractive enough.
As for this "changed egg", after it is made, it can be stored at room temperature for three to six months after being wrapped in lime, which is longer than the storage time of eggs.
In the summer, when I am tired from working in the fields, I peel off an egg and eat it when I am resting on the edge of the field. After working all day, I have a cold dish and a sip of wine in the evening. It is a great enjoyment, better than eating a piece of meat. It also makes me feel hungry.
The price of "changed eggs" is tentatively set at four cents per catty.
The products are of high quality and low price, and are fresh and rare. When Wu Ji started selling them, they were very popular.
It is very suitable to buy something to eat at home, or to visit relatives, and it is something that is not easy to spoil.
Not just Wu Ji, Su Mulan also sent some "changed eggs" to Qilixiang.
The weather is hot, and the braised mutton currently sold by Qilixiang has been turned into cold pot mutton. It lacks the smoky heat of charcoal fire, making it more suitable for consumption in this season.
Cut the "bian eggs" into small crescent shapes and place them on the plate like flower petals. Add the sauce and minced garlic and chili pepper. It tastes rich and has a strong aftertaste. It is best eaten with wine.
