Reborn Farmhouse: Planting Fields, Flirting with People

Chapter 172 Sweet Potato Vermicelli (1)

After harvesting the wheat, in another month or so, the sweet potatoes can also be dug.Before that, there is still a lot of preparatory work to be done.

The yard at home is very big. Li Mingyue plans to build a shed in the open space in the northeast corner of her yard, and then build two stoves, which is equivalent to a small workshop. A row of bamboo shelves will be built in front of the shed, so it will be convenient for making vermicelli and sausages in the future. .

Li Mingyue was not good at these things, so she only told Li Shou what she thought, and then drew a simple blueprint.

After seeing it, Li Shou led Li Mingzhi up the mountain to cut trees, chop bamboo, and tamp the earth. The father and son worked hard for half a month, and then invited the brothers Liu Yongqiang and the father and son Zhou Dashan next door to help build the shed.

This movement was not small, and the village was discussing why Li Shou's family built so many stoves for nothing.

Aunt Zhou was also very curious and came over to ask several times.These things can't be hidden in the future, Li Mingyue only vaguely said that there are too many sweet potatoes grown in the Tao, and she can't eat them, so she plans to process the sweet potatoes and sell them in the county.

Aunt Zhou didn't understand what processing meant, so she ran to ask Mrs. Liu, but Mrs. Liu didn't understand this either, and couldn't stand Aunt Zhou's obsession, so she had to explain it to her indiscriminately.

In the end, the rumors in the village became: Li Shou's family planned to cook the sweet potatoes in a big pot and take them to the county town to sell them for money.

"..."

Unsurprisingly, the matter of Li Shou and Sweet Potato once again became the topic of conversation among everyone in Li Family Village.Many people laughed at Li Shou, he was really crazy about money, even if the sweet potato is cooked, it is still a cheap thing, something that pigs don't like to eat, and they expect to make money from it, what a dream!

Among them, the one who laughed the most must be Mrs. Li. She just heard about this and she burst into tears. If Old Man Li didn't stop her, she might have to go to Li Shou's house to humiliate them. .

For these criticisms from the village, Li Mingyue didn't bother to pay attention to them, and closed the door to focus on the work of the workshop.

After working for more than a month, the small workshop has begun to take shape, and the "Fu Sheng Ji" small workshop has opened again.

The sweet potatoes at the foot of Laodong Mountain also had a bumper harvest. A total of more than 9000 catties of sweet potatoes were harvested in the five-acre three-divided land, and more than 90 sacks were packed. They couldn’t fit in the cellar, and they were all piled up in the yard. The scene was quite spectacular. Aunt Zhou looked at it and sighed, if this was replaced by food, it would be enough for the family to eat for several years.

Li Mingyue repeatedly recalled the production process of sweet potato vermicelli several times in her mind, and after careful deliberation, wrote down the steps one by one on paper.

But after all, I haven't made it for a long time, and I'm still a little raw. Li Mingyue plans to experiment with a hundred catties of sweet potatoes first, and if it's done, then mass-produce it.

The steps of making sweet potato vermicelli are actually not complicated.First, wash the sweet potatoes and make a pulp.Filter out the starch therein, and dry the starch for dehydration.Then beat the dry starch with boiling water, add a small amount of alum and stir well.Then put the reconciled starch into a special iron colander and leak it into boiling water, boil it to make a semi-finished product, then take out the vermicelli and hang it on a bamboo pole to dry in the sun.

Including the drying time, the whole production process takes about ten days or so.Li Mingyue took care of every step by herself, meticulously and conscientiously, so as not to make any mistakes.

As for the recipe for making the sweet potato vermicelli, Li Mingyue just casually said that it was an ancient method from the book, but no one in the family doubted it. After all, the world is so big and there are many strange things in this world. The farmers in the small mountain village have never heard of it, and they have never seen it.

　Finish the task before going out, so happy~~~ I can spend more time outside at night
