Naruto: Big Foodie

Chapter 179: Zongzi (below)

Yang Ming took two zongzi leaves that had been scalded with boiling water. At this time, the leaves lost their original color and became dull.

Yang Ming turned the smooth side of the leaves inward, and overlapped the leaves in opposite directions.

Then, bend about a third of the zong leaf, and then fold the zong leaf back to form a funnel.

Next, Yang Ming put an appropriate amount of glutinous rice in it, then put in the candied dates, covered the candied dates with the glutinous rice, and then pressed it down.

At this time, when it comes to the critical moment of making zongzi, one cannot be sloppy at all.

Yang Ming held the rice tightly with his left hand. When he held it, Yang Ming used force on his hand to prevent the dumplings from spreading. After pressing the rice, he pushed it into a triangle.

Next, Yang Ming's right hand kept moving, pushed the zong leaf forward from behind, closed the zong leaf, and then folded the sharp corner.

At this time, Yang Ming brought nine cotton threads of different colors, wrapped them from top to bottom, taut and knotted them, and cut off the excess cotton threads.

At this point, the dumplings are almost finished.

The edge of the dark green zongzi is crossed by nine-color cotton threads, like a rainbow streaking through the dense forest, which is very conspicuous.

Yang Ming boiled the hot water and dropped the dumplings. The water should soak the dumplings. After the water boils again, turn it to simmer for a while before eating.

It is worth noting that in the process of cooking rice dumplings, even if there is very little water in the pot, do not add any raw water to it, otherwise it will be a tragedy.

When the zongzi was fully cooked, Yang Ming opened the lid of the pot, and a long-suppressed steam, like a volcanic eruption, erupted suddenly, carrying out the heat of the noodles.

At the same time, a faint fragrance unique to the zongzi leaves, with the eruption of hot air, exuded the lover's heart and spleen, which greatly increased the appetite.

Yang Ming took out the zongzi, cut the cotton thread, and peeled off the tightly wrapped leaves.

I saw that in the steaming mist, the glutinous rice in the zongzi seemed to be constantly sticking together.

Yang Ming motioned to Gaara, "Well, take it and try it."

Gaara's throat moved up and down, and Shoukaku in his body seemed to sense that he was about to taste the delicious food, showing an unprecedented quietness.

Gaara picked up the chopsticks, tore off a corner of the zongzi, and threw it into his mouth.

slap! pat!

Gaara made a chewing sound in her mouth, her expression moved slightly, and an unprecedented delicacy suddenly flooded into her heart.

"Really delicious!"

This kind of food from China conquered Gaara in an instant!

This is a unique refreshing taste.

Microboiled and cleaned fresh zong leaves, raw glutinous rice soaked in soy sauce.

Because it is original, it is pure and cannot be copied.

When the zongye leaves are taken out of the scalding water, they will carry the unique fragrance of the leaves, accompanied by the sultry steam, just like the taste of summer.

This is the charm of pure handwork, and it is not comparable to mechanical processing at all!

With the warmth of his hands, Yang Ming carefully protects the vitality of traditional food!

Zongzi is not only a kind of food, the taste of childhood, the taste of hometown, people's hearts are filled with the care of home, and instantly hit the tears.

Even though Gaara had never eaten rice dumplings before, at this moment, the soft part of his heart was still impacted!

Gaara thinks of the endless desert where he was born and raised, and Yashamaru.

At this moment, I love Luo suddenly looking back and actually found that the memories buried in my heart are not only hatred, but also the beauty of the past!

Time is the medicine to heal wounds.

In the past, Gaara was only trapped in Shouhe, often insomnia, and in his heart, it became more and more extreme.

But now, Gaara finally woke up.

He is in the dark and yearns for the light.

A drop of cold tears, from the corner of Gaara's eyes, wet the corner of his mouth, and flowed into his mouth.

Gaara rolled the tip of his tongue, tasted it, and found that the tears had no taste, but he never noticed it in the past.

All hatred, in fact, just vanished.

Under the erosion of time, only love and affection are worth looking back on.

Seeing this, Yang Ming smiled slightly.

Afterwards, he devoted his attention to making zongzi.

As mentioned earlier, nine zongzi is a series of nine zongzi of different sizes and shapes.

After making a triangular zongzi, Yang Ming changed his method.

This time, when Yang Ming was making zongzi, he selected zongzi leaves of similar size and placed them on top of each other, carefully placed the leaves in his left hand, and then rolled the zongzi leaves into a cone shape. The tip of the cone was not on the edge of the zongzi but at On the leaf surface, the extra part is folded into an angle and stacked on the cone surface.

During this process, Yang Ming's expression was extremely focused, for fear that one would accidentally exert too much force.

Otherwise, the zongye leaves will be easily cracked along the veins of the leaves, and all the previous efforts will be lost.

So before wrapping the bag, Yang Ming didn't dare to be careless, and touched the veins on the leaves from head to toe, so that he could follow the veins and roll out the shape correctly.

The zongzi that I made before was just a test by Yang Ming, and the ingredients were simple.

This time, it's different.

Yang Ming adds rice and meat to the zong leaves. One of the meat is refined and one fat, or two refined and one fat. It can't be all the same~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Otherwise, it will greatly affect the taste.

The glutinous rice soaked in soy sauce with some cooked brown color hides the meat. The rice puffs up the zongzi leaves. Then, the leaves are used to cover the entrance and exit of the glutinous rice.

Then, Yang Ming took out nine different colors of cotton thread, red, yellow, blue, white, blue, green, purple, black, and powder, and then wrapped the cotton thread around it. In a relaxed and comfortable posture, put it in a pot with water and slowly cook it.

When it was taken out of the hot pot again, the unique fragrance of the zongye leaves overflowed, and the lover's heart was filled with it.

When Yang Ming cut the cotton thread and opened the zongzi leaves layer by layer, a fragrant glutinous rice fragrant, like an overwhelming air wave, caught people off guard and completely indulged in the sea of ​​fragrance.

Yang Ming picked up his chopsticks and slowly pulled out the surface of the glutinous rice. It was as if he was searching for a secret, uncovering a layer of mysterious veil.

Inside the zongzi, the reddish-brown or purplish meat was still there, but the fat was somewhat melted, and it was dissolved in the middle of the glutinous rice.

Even people who don't like to eat fatty meat, when they see the succulent juice flowing out, they will feel that from the fragrant glutinous rice, with a little melted and thin crystal, it should be very fun to eat.

This time, Yang Ming did not share it with Gaara, but tasted it himself.

The rice dumplings made in this way are not weak, but full of plumpness and a little toughness. When you bite into them, you can distinguish the graininess of the rice grains. They will never stick to your teeth or feel dry, but they are clearly a whole. It doesn't fall apart, it's simply awesome!

Outside the door, Jiraiya and a group of employees have long been fascinated by the overflowing fragrance, and they wandered at the door of the kitchen reluctantly, their eyes constantly looking inside.
