Gourmet food starts from the green leather train chef

Chapter 57
Although Chen Yan came to Gesang Village for the first time, she was very familiar with Namcuo. She called a taxi in the service area of ​​the scenic spot with just one phone call.

After buying high-quality yak milk from a nearby ranch, Zhou Zhou bought some brown sugar in a supermarket near the scenic spot, and then returned to Grandma Dama's house to start making steamed stuffed buns with milk dregs.

As the name suggests, making steamed buns with milk dregs is naturally inseparable from milk dregs.This is actually the product of the separation of butter tea, which is the most common thing in Tibetan families, but it has become the most anticipated delicacy of Mei Duo, which shows the embarrassment of the family.

Looking at the expectant Mei Duo, Zhou Zhou felt a little sour, so he specially bought two full barrels of high-quality yak milk; except for today's meal, in the next few months, Mei Duo should be able to drink it every day It's time for the delicious butter tea.

Separating butter tea depends on the process of 'beating', which requires the use of 'Dongmo bucket', which has a detachable lid, and a piston-like beating device in the center of the lid, which is the so-called 'Jialuo'. '.

Fresh yak milk must first be heated to about [-] degrees, then poured into a bucket and the lid fixed, and the maker must keep pumping the 'Jialuo' up and down to separate the oil and water in the milk.

This process is very laborious, and it is also a test of the producer's technique. The trick is to judge the degree of oil-water separation through the feedback force from 'Jia Luo'.

Whether the final butter tea is fragrant or not depends on the technique and accurate judgment of the maker.

Grandma Dama was afraid that Zhou Zhou was not experienced enough, so she wanted to do it herself, but Zhou Zhou refused.The forging process requires thousands of twitches, which is not something an old man can handle.

The helpless Dharma could only wait aside with the excited granddaughter. When Zhou Zhou finally let go of Jia Luo's hand, he cautiously came over to watch.

"It's really high-quality ghee!"

A layer of yellow oil emerged from the Dong Mo barrel, with a faint milky fragrance. Under the sunlight, the foam on the surface of the oil shone with colorful lights. Grandma Dama could tell at a glance that it was the top-quality ghee.

The ghee produced from milk is yellow, and the ghee produced from goat milk is white, both of which are pure in color; Grandma is the first time to see.

Compared with grandma, there is nothing surprising about Mei Duo. Since Brother Zhou is the incarnation of Auspicious Heavenly Mother, of course he is omnipotent.

She had washed her hands in advance, cheered and scooped up the ghee with her small hands, and carefully packed it into the leather bag specially used for ghee.

Soon these fresh ghee will solidify into bright yellow ghee blocks, which can be stored for a long time, and can be used anytime,

After successfully separating ghee from yak milk, the remaining milk has lost its fat. It only needs to be boiled and then cooled to obtain yogurt water, and milk dregs are the residues of yogurt water filtered through a bamboo bucket filter.

After removing the milk dregs from the bamboo bucket filter, it needs to be placed in the sun for one to two hours. The final formed milk dregs are in irregular shapes, sour and refreshing, and rich in nutrients. Can dissolve food and eliminate phlegm.

When Tibetans leave their hometown, they always bring some milk dregs with them to prevent acclimatization, but this cheap food is entrusted with special affection by Tibetans.

While drying the milk dregs, Zhou Zhou began to melt the filtered milk into brown sugar, and then kneaded it into flour.

Steamed buns with milk dregs require soft skin and sour and crisp milk dregs, so there is no need to knead too many times, let alone use too much force, but they require kneading evenly, and the brown sugar milk must be evenly distributed on all parts of the noodles. This will have the best taste.

The last step is time for happy bun making.

Grandma Dama, Mei Duo, and Chen Yan all helped out. The steamed buns made by Zhou Zhou were the most beautiful, with petal patterns like flowers and [-] folds. Grandma Dama and Mei Duo’s were also above the standard. Only Chen Da The beautiful buns look more like ugly steamed buns.

After the steaming buns with milk dregs came out of the pot, a beauty-loving girl like Chen Yan naturally grabbed the buns made in Zhouzhou at the first time, but Grandma Dama picked up the buns she made with a smile and praised her a few words .

The soft, sweet and milk-flavored bun skin was broken by Mei Duo in one bite, and the sour and crunchy milk dregs made her squint her eyes beautifully. When she was a child, she always thought that the milk dregs buns made by grandma were the most delicious, but when she ate them After Zhou Zhou made the steamed stuffed bun with milk dregs, the girl's heart immediately moved on.

Through the steam curling up from the steamed stuffed bun, the happy Mei Duo took a peek at Brother Zhou, then lowered her head and smiled sweetly, not knowing what was going on in her little head.

When Mei Duo was smiling the happiest, her father, Amma, also came back; seeing her father’s condition remission and her daughter’s happy appearance, the honest father would just rub his hands and smile honestly, even if his wife secretly stabbed her a few times. The second waist eye, still can't say a pleasant word.

On the contrary, Zhou Zhou stretched out his hand first: "Uncle Qiangba, are the cattle and sheep on the pasture still fat?"

"This year's aquatic plants are good, very fat, very fat"

Qiangba of the Han nationality named Ma Qiang replied, but then he didn't know what to say. He ate a steamed stuffed bun with milk dregs, and then picked up another.
Seeing the man eating three steamed buns in a row, his wife Zhuo Ma finally couldn't bear it any longer. She rolled her husband's eyes lightly and said apologetically, "He's just such an idiot. I'm sorry for the two guests."

Zhou Zhou smiled and waved his hands: "It doesn't matter, Uncle Qiangba is really temperamental.

By the way, I heard that you and Uncle Qiangba are currently grazing on someone else's pasture. I wonder how the quality of the cattle and sheep are on the pasture where you two are? "

When mentioning cattle and sheep, Qiangba's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly: "The color is very good, and they are the best quality yaks and northern Tibetan black sheep."

"I trust Uncle Qiangba, do you think this is good?
We also need beef and mutton on the railway, and the person in charge of the logistics department of the Tibet Railway Section is also very familiar with our conductor.

I just happen to be the chef in charge of the dining car, and I believe the train conductor will give me some face; I hope that in the future, we x164 will regularly purchase beef and mutton from your pasture through the logistics office of the Tibet Railway Section, and it will be a long-term one.

But this requires a middleman, Uncle Qiangba, can you do me this little favor? "

Half of x164's drive is on the Tibetan-Qinghai Plateau, and there is a lot of beef and mutton to be consumed. If Qiangba is the middleman, he can get some benefits, and maybe he can help this poor herder family.

Zhou Zhou has just received the [-] skill points rewarded by the system, and has directly upgraded his 'skills' to the level of a super chef. Now all his basic skills have reached the level of a super chef, which was originally the weakest 'skill' Because these [-] skill points are directly upgraded to the special level.

In other words, Zhou Zhou's food carving and plate arrangement skills have now become his strongest points!

Speaking of which, I would also like to thank Mei Duo for seeing the only long leather jacket on Mei Duo's body and the happy expression on her face holding ordinary food such as steamed stuffed buns with milk dregs. Zhou Zhou always felt that he should do it for this family. something.

Aunt Xia has a lot of face on this railway line. Anyway, the logistics department of the Tibetan capital railway section also needs to purchase ingredients. As long as Aunt Xia is willing to help with a word, it shouldn't be difficult.

"I am but"

Qiangba's face was flushed red, and his hands were red from rubbing. In the end, Dolma agreed on behalf of her husband.

The cattle and sheep on the ranch have a stable market, and the ranch owner will also give them a reward; Zhuoma is a smart woman, how can she not see that Zhou Zhou is deliberately helping her family?
"Brother Zhou is the best person in the world, he is the embodiment of the auspicious Heavenly Mother"

Mei Duo is as smart as her Ama, and those big sparkling eyes never left Zhou Zhou's face, as if she wanted to remember Zhou Zhou's appearance firmly and engrave it in her heart.

After eating this meal, Zhou Zhou and Chen Yan bid farewell and left Grandma Dama's house; the sooner the matter of the ranch's supplies can be resolved, the sooner Mei Duo can wear her due new clothes, and last night Xia My aunt called and asked him to go back to Tibet as soon as possible. The assistant chef arranged for him had already arrived in Tibet, and he needed to have a look at it as the "chef" of the dining car.

When the two got into the taxi, Mei Duo stood on the side of the road with her lamb in her arms and refused to leave. She jumped and waved her hands desperately, hoping that her brother Zhou would turn around and look at her and Tuantuan more. glance.

Looking back at Mei Duo, who had turned into a small black spot, Chen Yan felt her eyes start to itch again, and wiped them lightly: "Old Zhou, this little girl probably remembers you in her heart. "
