I'm a dragon sparrow in Tokyo

Chapter 37 Dumplings and Baozi

She swiped her phone all the way, and soon returned to Aoba's house.

Pushing open the door, Jiang Xu unexpectedly discovered that Aoba didn't wait for him today, but stood in front of the dining table, placed a large basin, pushed the sleeves to the joints, and put on an apron with a light pink cherry blossom pattern. With a serious face, they are meeting each other.

"When you haven't returned for a long time, I will start first." Qingye said.

"Why are you meeting, what are you going to do?" Jiang Xu asked curiously.

"I received a call from my mother, saying that school starts tomorrow and I have to work overtime at night, so let's eat first. So I'm going to make some dumplings, and when she comes back at night, she can eat them anytime."

"Well, I think it's good too." Jiang Xu nodded in agreement, "Then today"

"Continue to eat the halberd!"

Before Jiang Xu finished speaking, Aoba answered in one gulp.

".Fine."

Jiang Xu shrugged, although his original intention was to continue eating the halberd.

"However, how do you eat dumplings? Comparing craftsmanship?"

"Hmph, I've thought of this a long time ago. I'll make more dumplings and save them for my mother. We can cook other dishes, and dumplings are only one dish."

???

So, if you have dumplings and white rice, what kind of combination is this?
Jiang Xu had a question mark all over his head.

He has never tried eating two staple foods together, which is too weird.

Aoba also looked puzzled: "Why can't dumplings be a side dish, many places in Sakurajima use fried dumplings as a side dish."

After some explanations, Jiang Xu understood.

It turned out to be a side dish. On Sakurajima's side, it is mainly fried dumplings, which are exquisite and small, and there are about five or six dishes on a plate.

Unlike many places in Xiaguo, dumplings are the main food directly, and rice is naturally not added.

But even so, Jiang Xu felt awkward and couldn't accept it. After thinking about it, he said.

"Eat dumplings, just eat dumplings, let's not serve them with rice."

"But my flour has been reconciled, so I can't waste it."

Aoba has no objection to having dumplings as the main food. Their family has been greatly influenced by the Zhongxia diet, and they know that many places in Xiaguo are used to eating only dumplings.

"The most important thing is that making dumplings alone cannot be used as a food halberd."

Jiang Xu was also scratching his head a bit, simply making dumplings is not considered food at all, the most important thing between food and food is the duel of taste.

Unless it's making a fuss about the stuffing, the only ingredients are meat stuffing.

In fact, dumplings are not simple. The same flour, the same filling and different chefs can also make unique flavors.

But this kind of realm is still far away from Jiang Xu and Qingye, so they don't think about it at all.

Jiang Xu looked at the various props and ingredients on the table, but had no idea what to do.

Suddenly, a cooking book on the table jumped into Jiang Xu's eyes, it was the one Aoba had been reading.

'recipe! '

Jiang Xu's eyes lit up, he also has it here, but it's not in reality, but in his mind.

'System, buy a recipe blind box. '

He happened to be able to afford this new item.

Anyway, I don't know what to do now, just open a blind box, maybe it will be useful.

Jiang Xu went shopping for the first time, so he decided to toss 10 winning points and bought a recipe blind box.

Deduction of victory points, on the store page, the cover did not indicate the name, as if a recipe like an isolated ancient book suddenly flashed twice and emerged from the page.

A line of text glowing with white light gradually appeared in the frame left on the cover.

【Fried buns】

Around the font, a pot of lifelike steamed stuffed buns gradually emerged.

The recipe in the blind box is to make buns!

It seems that it is just in use now.

Withdrawing his attention from the system, looking at Qingye, Jiang Xu smiled slightly and said, "I have a solution."

"You make dumplings, I make steamed stuffed buns, it's fine. As for the staple food, let's cook porridge. It's just that the weather is dry and boring today, so I want to eat something light."

Aoba thought for a while, then nodded: "Yes."

This method is indeed the best.

Dumplings and steamed buns belong to the same pastry, so it is easier to compare the difference in taste.

More importantly, pasta has low requirements for knife skills and high requirements for manual work.

Aoba felt that this was the time he had the highest winning rate.So full of motivation.

Walk into the kitchen and wash your hands first.

Jiang Xu took the opportunity to flip through the recipe of this 'Shui Jian Bun' in his mind.

And when the accident happened, Jiang Xu was flipping through the cookbook in his mind, and his eyes just blurred when he saw the illustration on the first page with the pattern of kneading noodles.

When he came back to his senses, Jiang Xu realized that the scene in front of him had changed.

It changed to a table with various flours and kneading tools.

This is nothing, Jiang Xu was shocked to realize that his body was moving uncontrollably.

wrong!

After calming down, Jiang Xu noticed that his arms did not seem to be his own, they were obviously thicker, more like the arms of an adult, and he was wearing a white coat.

Appears to be a chef's suit.

Next, the actions of 'myself' confirmed Jiang Xu's conjecture.

Jiang Xu was more like a bystander, watching himself kneading the dough, kneading the dough, adjusting the stuffing, making buns, frying buns, the whole set of actions was done in one go without any pause.

This recipe not only records the ingredients and techniques, but also includes the whole process of cooking this dish by a professional chef who is at least senior.

Opening his eyes, a smile appeared in Jiang Xu's eyes.

This wave of eating halberds, he should be stable again.

Walking out of the kitchen door, returning to the living room and coming to the dining table, kneading and rolling dough here is indeed more open than in the kitchen.

Reminiscing about the recipe a little bit

To make steamed buns, no matter what type of steamed stuffed buns you have, you must prepare noodles and stuffing.

Taking the all-purpose flour that Qingye had poured in half, Jiang Xu held the basin in one hand and the bag in the other, and slowly poured the flour into the basin.

The snow-white and fine flour poured down and slowly piled up on the bottom of the basin to form a small snow mountain.

Feeling the weight feedback from his palm, at a certain moment, Jiang Xu suddenly pulled the flour bag and stopped pouring it in.

I conveniently put the pot on the electronic scale beside it, and subtracted 305 grams from the pot, which is 300 grams more than the planned 5 grams.

He turned his head, poured half a bowl of warm water, and sent it to the electronic scale to weigh it again. The net weight was 220 grams, which was 225 grams less than the expected 5 grams.

It seems that my current level is not enough, and I can only accurately measure the weight to within 5 grams.

I have heard that some chefs with profound skills, needless to say, the full-screen feel can control the weight of ingredients within milligrams.

After correcting the weight according to the recipe, Jiang Xu poured water into the flour, sprinkled a small spoonful of yeast, salt, oil and a little sugar, and started kneading the noodles.

According to the recipe, the dough mixed with this ratio will be very soft, and the texture of the bun skin will be very soft.

After kneading the noodles in rough steps, Jiang Xu took a lid and covered the basin, and cooked the noodles for 15 minutes before talking.

Until now, everything is correct.

It seems that making buns is still very simple.

After 15 minutes, the lid was lifted, and the dough in the basin softened, and the volume seemed to be slightly larger and more uniform.

Wet his hands with water to prevent the dough from sticking to his hands. Jiang Xu inserted one hand into the dough from the edge, then lifted it up, picked up the stretched dough, and then shook it off with his strength.

Stretch and fold the dough repeatedly until the surface of the dough becomes fine and smooth, like a reflective 'glossy surface'.

Looking at the descriptions and illustrations on the recipe, and at the dough in front of him that he had repeatedly tortured but still had countless tiny lumps, Jiang Xu fell into deep thought.

Where is the problem?
　Thanks for the reward from the big guy 'Auxiliary Vehicle', I didn't see it before, I'm really sorry!

　　If you have time, spend more time with your elders. Don't leave too many regrets, you will regret it for a lifetime.
