Chapter 122 Yuba

Li Anan took a look and realized that this was her 'secret weapon'!

"I call this thing 'Yuba'!" Li An'an said loudly.

"Yuba?"

"What is yuba?"

"Is this thing called yuba?"

Grandma and grandson all looked at Li Anan with big curious eyes.

"When I was young, I traveled extensively and loved to eat, but I have never seen this 'yuba'?" Qin Hong tried to dig up this thing from his decades of memory.

But after thinking about it for a long time, I really didn't expect that he was not too old to remember things.

He just hasn't eaten this thing.

In order to verify, he also asked Lao Luo, who had been accompanying him all the time: "Lao Luo, have we never eaten before?"

"It's true that I have never eaten it. I have been with the general for so many years, and I have never heard of this yuba." Lao Luo also shook his head.

He and Qin Hong spent more time together than Qin Hong and his wife. If both of them said they had never met, then they must have never met.

"Hehehe, because this is made by our own family!" Li Anan then revealed the answer.

Speaking of yuba, it hasn’t been long since it was made.

It’s just prepared for the restaurant’s signature dish.

It’s also thanks to the fact that Lao Li’s family has a small mill, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to make it.

But the small mill in Lao Li's house is exhausted.

several days ago.

"My dear, what are you going to do?" Qiao Xiufen was surprised to see her little girl having so many soybeans trimmed.

Lao Li's family didn't grow many soybeans, so Li Anan basically used them to cause harm.

No, it’s research.

"I'm going to make something good! Just watch it, mother!" Li Anan selected the soybeans very carefully.

She decided to make the yuba before opening the store.

The first step is to select high-quality soybeans, which must have full grains.

Fortunately, the soybeans grown by Lao Li's family this year are pretty good, not too bad.

It didn't take long for Li An'an to choose the soybeans that met her requirements.

Li Dalang has been beside Li Anan, waiting for her to send him at any time.

Who knows that her strength is too weak now, and she is powerless in many things.

I had no choice but to find my eldest nephew and ask him to help.

The eldest nephew Li Dalang is now at the age when he is not too old to take on responsibility, but not so young that he can do something.

It's just right to help my little aunt Li An'an.

Li Anan asked Li Dalang to take a large basin of water and soak all the soybeans.

Because it is still winter, soaking the beans takes a long time, and it takes one night anyway.

Qiao Xiufen watched her little girl start to fuss again, okay, I can't control it.

He shook his head and walked away.

The first thing Li Anan did when she got up the next day was to look at the soybeans she had soaked.

Overnight, the soybeans have absorbed all the water in the basin and become extremely bulging.

Li Anan squeezed it. Although it swelled, it still felt hard, so that was right.

"Da Lang, take all these beans to the stone mill." Li Anan walked towards the backyard where the stone mill was placed with his little hands behind his back.

It's a pity that when Lao Li's family set up their stall today, the donkey took him away.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be the most appropriate thing to do this?

Now there is no choice but to use manpower.

Fortunately, Li Dalang is small but strong, so he can still deal with this.

He directed his eldest nephew to grind the soaked beans into a white slurry.

Hearing the noise in the backyard, Li Dagen, who had not been out today, also came to help.

Others, the younger ones, went out to play, while the older ones went out to work. Then there is Qian Qiaofeng who is in confinement.

There is no one left who can help my sister-in-law and nephew.

Since Lao Li's family started setting up a stall, they have to prepare a lot of skewers every day.

I specially asked Boss Li to make several super large wooden basins.

This will allow you to hold the prepared dishes.

It just so happened that Li Anan brought a prepared slurry.

Then use gauze and filter into another basin.

All this was directed by Li Anan and completed by the cooperation of Li Dagen and Li Dalang.

After repeated filtration several times, the bean dregs and filtered water were perfectly separated.

Li Anan was satisfied.

She was also curious before and searched online for how to do it, but this was really her first time actually doing it.

Li Dalang helped her carry the filtered slurry to the kitchen, where the fire had already been lit.

"Pour it in and cook it. Thank you for your hard work, nephew. Hehe." Li Anan couldn't bear to see her nephew sweating profusely. She seemed to have overdone her orders today.

Mainly because of her aunt's seniority, she can summon her eldest nephew without any pressure.

If this was her biological father, she really couldn't guarantee that Li Dagen would do everything she said.

Li Anan held a shovel and kept scratching in the pot where the slurry was boiling.

After it’s all boiled, it’s not done yet.

Li Dagen came into the kitchen to see it twice, and each time he shook his head helplessly.

It seems to be saying, I want to see what you can come up with.

Li Anan is very serious when making new things, and she doesn't care about other people's doubts.

The best way to refute someone is to surprise them with results.

Li Dalang believed in his little aunt very much, and it could be said that she believed in her everywhere.

Li Anan asked him to fish out all the slurry and filter it again.

The slurry looks cleaner after filtering it again.

Cooked over low heat again.

Because the fire on the stove was no longer strong, a different scene appeared this time.

"Quick, quick, quick, have you seen the white film? Auntie, I just want this. Pick it up gently, be sure to be gentle." Li Anan was very excited when he saw the oil film floating in the pot.

It’s really done!

When this oil film dries, it will be the yuba.

Li Dalang used the bamboo pole prepared by Li An'an in advance to lift up the film bit by bit. The oil film naturally shrank and wrinkled.

Li Anan looked at the oil film in front of him, it was so beautiful.

She has already thought about what to cook with yuba.

It really makes my mouth water just thinking about it.

Fortunately, the temperature in the kitchen was high enough and there was help.

A rack for drying yuba has been set up near the stove in advance.

Li Dalang only needs to hang the oil film on the shelf bit by bit.

New oil films are still forming in the pot, and a lot of yuba can be produced from this pot of slurry.

Li Anan was actually not sure how much soybeans would produce how much yuba. The first time was, after all, an experiment.

What I didn't expect is that this thing can still produce quantities.

It's freezing outside right now, so it's not a good time to take it out to dry.

I had to dry it in the kitchen. The yuba itself should be dried.

It’s just that the kitchen space in Lao Li’s house is limited, so these yuba take up a bit of space in the kitchen.

When Yang Fanghua and Qiao Xiufen came back from town, they were shocked when they saw the pile of wrinkled things hanging.

 I'm late
