Border Cook

Or you can cook ginger and garlic until fragrant and then add cumin powder, chili powder, pepper, salt, etc. to stir-fry the yam beans into a spicy and salty taste. It is delicious whether you eat it as a snack or as a side dish to go with porridge on the dinner table.

After eating the yam beans, Xia Mingyue started to pack the yams.

The crispy yam is peeled and cut into thin oblique slices, then stir-fried with carrots and black fungus to make a vegetarian dish. Add enough millet vinegar. The red, black and white colors match well when it comes out of the pan, and the taste is crisp, sour and appetizing, and very delicious.

Or you can chop the crispy yam into small pieces, replace the water chestnuts and mix them with the pork filling, then make steamed lion's head. It is fragrant and crispy. Compared with the steamed lion's head made with water chestnuts, it has a different kind of mellow and delicious taste.

The yam and pork stuffing can be used to make buns, boiled into dumplings, or fried into pot stickers...

There are even more ways to cook iron stick yam.

Peel the skin, cut into sections, steam directly in a pot, sprinkle with a little white sugar, it tastes soft and sweet, and can be eaten directly as a staple food.

After peeling, chop it into small pieces, and cook it with rice or millet into glutinous rice porridge. It tastes soft, mellow and fragrant, and is good for the spleen and stomach. It is delicious and good for the body.

After peeling and steaming, use a spoon to mash it into fine paste, pour some hawthorn jam made from the current hawthorn harvest on it, and eat it as hawthorn yam, which has a delicate taste and is sweet and sour.

Peel the skin, steam it, grind it into paste, add glutinous rice flour, red dates, etc. to make soft and glutinous yam cake with date paste. It tastes soft and delicious, sweet but not greasy...

Xia Mingyue was very enthusiastic about it and even a little addicted to it. She wanted to try all kinds of food with yam.

To the extent that almost all meals at home during this period contain yam.

If it were someone else's family, eating yam for one meal and the next would have made them tired of it, but Xia Mingyue's cooking skills were outstanding, and the yam dishes she made were varied and almost no two were the same.

Therefore, meals with yam in every meal will not make people feel bored. On the contrary, because of the wonderful taste and variety of styles, everyone eats it with relish and says it is very satisfying. After finishing this meal, they even start to guess what kind of yam food will be in the next meal.

Although others loved these various yam delicacies, they had already witnessed Xia Mingyue's cooking skills. Although they kept praising the delicious taste of yam, they were used to it.

On the contrary, the sisters Zou Shiyun and Zou Shiliu seemed to have opened the door to a new world. They felt that their current life was like being completely immersed in a honey pot.

It was indeed soaked in a honey jar.

There is a place to live, work to do, wages to be paid, people to look after you, and most importantly, delicious food to enjoy every day.

For a moment, Zou Shiyun was thinking, if he could settle down in Jinqiu County, would it be a good choice?

Zou Shiliu's thoughts were much simpler, and her words were even more straightforward. "Sister, how nice would it be if we always lived in Jinqiu County?"

"Yes." Zou Shiyun answered subconsciously, but then shook her head, "But it won't work if we continue to live in Madam Xia's house, so we should find my uncle's family first."

"Then how about we buy a small house in Jinqiu County?" Zou Shiliu suggested, "We have enough money to buy a small house. When the time comes, we can work in Xiaji Central Kitchen and earn enough to support the two of us."

"That's what I said, but my uncle's family..." Zou Shiliu frowned and interrupted Zou Shiyun, "If we go to my uncle's house, we will also live under someone else's roof. Even if my uncle and grandparents don't care, what if my aunt doesn't like us? What should we do?"

"This..." Zou Shiyun didn't know how to answer.

Logically speaking, my mother's uncle is older than her. He holds a very important position in my mother's family, in the eyes of these children, and even in the Zou family. It can be said that apart from my mother, the only ones she and her sister can rely on are her uncle and her grandparents.

But to put it another way, both of them also have Zou family blood in their veins. They are their father's daughters and their grandmother's granddaughters. Yet, they both turned a blind eye to the two sisters and let the concubine in a higher position deal with them at will.

If they really go to their maternal grandparents' and uncle's homes, since they are some blood relatives, can they really treat them as their own children and take good care of them?
Especially as for their aunt, she has no blood relationship with them at all. Will she easily accept the two of them?
If my uncle's family is wealthy and rich, adding two more people would just mean adding two more sets of bowls and chopsticks. But if my uncle's family is in a difficult situation now and can't take care of themselves, even if I want to, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it.

After all, over the years, except for the death of their mother, their uncle's family had never sent anyone to greet them, let alone invite them and their sisters to their home as guests, and they hadn't even received a single letter...

The more Zou Shiyun thought about it, the more uncertain he felt. His mind became more and more chaotic. In the end, he could only sigh, "The letter has been sent. Let's wait and see. Maybe..."

Zou Shiyun was a little bit at a loss to continue talking about this. After all, there was no certainty about this matter and everything was just speculation.

I can only wait and see the attitude of my uncle's reply before making any plans.

"Okay." Zou Shiliu nodded and continued to eat the date paste and yam cake.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Xia Mingyue's newly acquired mold is in the shape of a five-petal plum blossom, and the yam cake with date paste is made up of layers of yam and date paste, pressed out with the mold. The layers look very beautiful and taste sweet and delicious.

Today, each person got three or four. Seeing that Zou Shiliu liked it, Zou Shiyun only ate one to try it out, and gave the rest to Zou Shiliu.

Zou Shiliu had almost finished her portion, so she passed the two portions to Zou Shiyun and said, "Sister, eat."

"You eat it, I don't like it." Zou Shiyun declined.

"But I'm full too. If you don't want to eat it, it will go bad if you leave it like this." Zou Shiliu advised, "Even if you don't like it, you should finish it. Otherwise, if Madam Xia sees it, she will think that the jujube and yam cake I made is not delicious!"

"Well... okay." Zou Shiyun took the pastry, put it in his mouth, and ate it in small bites.

Soft and delicious, slightly sweet and tasty...

I really hope that days like this can last a little longer.

Xia Mingyue was unaware of the sisters' worries at the moment, and was still studying yam-based pastries with great interest.
