When the dishes were ready, Mingyu didn't eat first, feeling that the time was almost up, Mingyu asked Cang Jiye to help get a bucket of cold water in the yard and put it next to the tofu making table.Mingyu herself washed the kitchen knife and a wooden ruler before walking to the tofu table.

Mingyu took away the stone that pressed the tofu together with the board mold, then lifted the white cloth, measured the distance on it with a ruler, and then cut it open with a knife until the entire tofu slice was scratched, Mingyu slowly removed it. Soak the sliced ​​tofu slices in a bucket of cold water aside.After drawing all the tofu slices, Mingyu asked everyone to eat first.

After finishing the meal, Mingyu fished out the thin slices of tofu to drain the water, then took out a wooden basin, scooped three spoonfuls of water, put in about a catty of salt, then mixed the water and salt evenly, and then put the drained Thin slices of dried tofu are placed in brine.

"Girl, how long will this take? From early in the morning to now?" Old Man Murong asked impatiently

"It needs to be soaked for two hours. After soaking, it needs to be boiled until the color changes and the taste is almost ready. Then it will be dried tofu."

"It's been so long, I won't wait anymore, boy, let's go to that mountain today to have a look, it's better to draw the blueprint earlier, girl, remember to leave it to me when you're done." Old Murong said, pointing to the chili pepper. A mountain road in that direction.

Since the back hill of Mingyu's house was surrounded, the old man Murong took Cang Jiye to wander around the nearby mountains, planning to step on the spot and draw a topographic map, which would also facilitate Mingyu's future land reclamation and tidying up.

Mingyu saw that the two of them didn't want to wait, and didn't say anything. Anyway, the time is empty, so it's better to let them do things.

But Cang Jiye is a bit more fun, he knows that there is nothing bad to eat from Mingyu's hands, of course, this is based on the current situation, so he doesn't want to miss it, so he gave Mingyu something similar to Huozhezi

"Junior Sister, when this thing is ready soon, you must remember to unplug it, I will be back soon."

Mingyu was a little depressed, took it directly, then waved and said

"Okay, got it, you guys go."

The old man Murong saw Cang Jiye's actions and didn't stop him, on the contrary he thought it was a good idea, why didn't he think of it.

As soon as Old Man Murong and Cang Jiye left, Mingyu found two pots and cleaned them. First, put about 7 kg of water into one pot, and then filled a small cloth bag with salt, sliced ​​ginger, star anise, garlic cloves, cardamom, then tie it up and put it in the pot, then add the sauce and scallions to make a brine.

When the brine was almost ready, Mingyu divided the brine into two parts, took a small cloth bag and put a large handful of peppers into one of the pots, squeezed the peppers in the bag with a rolling pin, and then Continue to cook.

After the tofu slices had been soaked in salt water for enough time, Mingyu took out the tofu slices and drained them, then divided them into two parts and put them into two pots respectively. This was the final step of making dried tofu.

"Brother Yong, girl Yu, I don't know a lot of things in here, and I haven't seen this thing for sale in the town?"

"We have this thing at home, you can just get it from me, it's not unreasonable for me to ask you for 500 Wen, you see, don't you have to buy a lot of things you need to do this from Hungry Oh, so you are not I'm not at a loss if I take advantage of it."

In fact, these are also Mingyong's thoughts at the beginning. He didn't know that he needed so many materials before, but it's okay. Anyway, he has them at home, so it's better to give them to him at a cheaper price, and it's also to help him, as long as the purpose can be achieved.
