Chapter 1658

When they were having dinner in the evening, they laughed again and it was quite comfortable.

When the program team bought the things, they needed to prepare for making zongzi tomorrow.

First, boil the winter leaves and soften them. Otherwise, the winter leaves are still raw, which makes it difficult to fold and wrap the zongzi and easy to rot.

Only after boiling it soft, it will increase its toughness and make it easier to wrap the zongzi.

There is also the meat to be used. Cao Gong must cut it into strips and then marinate it.

The glutinous rice also needs to be soaked overnight. Only in this way can the zongzi be wrapped the next day.

On the morning of the next day, Cao Gong first had breakfast, and then he began to prepare to wrap the zongzi.

"Start wrapping now?" Sun Zhenni, who got up, came over curiously.

"Yes." Cao Gong, who had already started, looked up at Sun Zhenni.

Then, Xiao La, Zhi Sheng and others also got up one after another.

While eating breakfast, they were also watching Cao Gong making zongzi here.

Song Dandan and Zhang Guoli were also making zongzi nearby, but the zongzi they made were sweet zongzi, which is the sweet zongzi of the capital.

"I want to learn it too." Meng Ziyi said she wanted to learn how to make zongzi. "Five eight three"

"Teach me." Meng Ziyi found a small stool and sat down, asking her boyfriend to teach her.

Noticing Meng Ziyi's beautiful hands, Cao Gong praised: "Yeah, your hands are quite clean."

"Of course, in order to learn how to make zongzi, I even washed off my nail polish."

She was also afraid that something bad would fall into the zongzi from her nail polish.

Seeing her so thoughtful, Cao Gong smiled and said, "Then take the winter leaves and I will teach you step by step."

Meng Ziyi was really interested in this, so she really took the winter leaves and started to learn it.

Wang Yuwen, who was watching from the side, helped and added ingredients to Meng Ziyi.

"It looks pretty good." Looking at the rice dumplings made by Cao Gong, Wang Sulong couldn't help but praise.

"What is this rice dumpling called? What is its scientific name?" Sun Zhenni asked Cao Gong.

"Pillow Zong, a way of wrapping in Guangqi, my grandmother's hometown."

"Then the way of wrapping in Chaoshan, Guangdong is triangular Zong."

"In order to prevent my grandfather from getting jealous, I learned the wrapping methods of Guangdong and Guangqi."

Cao Gong's explanation made Meng Ziyi laugh non-stop: "Grandpa is the kind of person who gets jealous?"

"Huh? You don't know, he might have been jealous when he was young."

"My daughter is in love, and he doesn't like my mother's boyfriend."

"Seeing that my sister is close to her grandmother and not to him, the grandfather, he is also jealous."

"My grandfather is just an old child. Do you see why I like to act coquettishly and tease you so much? That's what I learned from the old man. He is now almost 90 years old, and sometimes he is jealous with my grandfather."The wife is acting like a spoiled child."

"Hahaha~" Cao Gong's words made everyone laugh.

While chatting, Cao Gong wrapped another zongzi.

While tying the zongzi with thread, Cao Gong was still looking at Meng Ziyi across from him.

"Pinch it tighter so that it won't get loose when cooking."

"You have to tie it tighter when tying it." Cao Gong knew from the side that Meng Ziyi's hands were a bit clumsy.

Although clumsy, Meng Ziyi was learning very seriously.

The first one was ugly, but after wrapping a few, Sister Meng, who had experience, wrapped a lot better.

And Meng Ziyi's own wrapping was placed next to her, Xiao La could clearly see that it was really getting better and better: "Hey, you really have to say, Sister Meng's wrapping is getting better and better."

"Yeah, I'm just very talented. "Meng Jie, who gets flattered when she is praised, how can she be modest?

But it is true that after wrapping seven or eight, Meng Ziyi's dumplings are indeed much better.

"Why do you use different colored threads?" Wang Sulong, who was watching from the side, asked in confusion.

"Two kinds of meat, beef and pork, need to be distinguished. When I take them home, I am afraid that Reba will eat pork." After Cao Gong explained, everyone realized that it was because of this.

It is true that different threads can be used to distinguish them.

Looking at the dumplings wrapped by Cao Gong, everyone thought they were very good.

"How many are there? I see there is still a lot of rice here." Shan Yiyu saw that there were more than 30 dumplings on the table, but there was still a lot of rice.

"About 120." Cao Gong counted and felt that there were about this much.

"How many? "Song Dandan was shocked when she heard that they had more than 120.

"Are they a lot?" Cao Gong smiled. This is definitely not a lot.

"Not a lot? Why did you make so many?" Even Xu Zhisheng thought it was a lot.

"You don't understand this. You always need to give gifts." Cao Gong was helpless and said, "There are many people in my family, so I must make more."

"There are 18 people in our program. Even if not everyone can accept meat dumplings, there will be a few people who want to try the taste, not to mention that there are so many staff members in our program group."

"After the dumplings are wrapped, everyone can eat one to taste it after they are cooked."

"For the rest, I will take 20 or 30 home. "In Cao Gong's opinion, these 120 are about the same.

After Cao Gong's explanation, everyone suddenly felt that these 120 were not too many.

Song Dandan said: "We also have 20 or 30 here."

"Yes, we also have 20 or 30 sweet dumplings." Zhang Guoli also counted and felt that it was about the same.

But their sweet dumplings are smaller, and the amount of two sweet dumplings is equivalent to one meat dumpling.

But it's also very good. You will get tired of eating one, and this amount is just enough.

"I really want to try it then.Try this meat dumpling and see how it tastes? I haven't eaten meat dumplings yet."

"I'll make one of Cao Shuai's meat dumplings." Xu Zhisheng flattered him.

"Just eat one?" Xiao La asked with a smile, he just ate one. (To read the exciting novels, go to Flylu Novel Network!)

"One is enough, Meng Jie has made more, the couple made them, try one each."

"You have a good eye, Zhisheng." Meng Jie was even happier now.

"Wow~" Meng Ziyi felt a sense of accomplishment after seeing the dumplings she made

"It turns out that making dumplings is such a fulfilling thing. Looking at each work, I feel very satisfied." Meng Ziyi expressed what she was thinking at the moment.

"When you make dumplings and see everyone eating them, you will feel even more satisfied."

"That's right, it's absolutely right. "Song Dandan agreed.

"Zhisheng, if you have time, please help light the fire in the iron boiler outside."

"Light the fire? Use firewood?" Xu Zhisheng was very surprised. He was going to use firewood?

"Yes, it would be too wasteful to use natural gas, and the firepower is not enough..."

"And one pot is not enough. I just went to see the iron pot prepared by the program team. It can only boil about 60 at a time, and it has to be turned over every 3 hours. Turn the bottom one up, and then put the top one at the bottom to boil. It may take six or seven hours. "

Cao Gong thinks that the zongzi must be divided into two pots, otherwise, one pot will definitely not be enough.

"Okay, I'll go light the fire. "Xu Zhisheng came to help immediately.

When we got outside, the iron boiler was ready.

There were one or two jelly-like things next to it, but I didn't know what they were.

It was Cao Gong who reminded him: "Zhisheng, the two jellies next to it are solid alcohol. You can use them to ignite firewood, but they are not edible. Don't eat them carelessly."

"Oh my god, haha~" Xu Zhisheng felt offended after being told like this.

"Haha~" Wang Sulong and the others also came out with a smile to watch Xu Zhisheng.

"You said it as if I were a naughty child." Xu Zhisheng started to make a fire.

As for the iron pot, Wang Sulong took it over to help wash it.

After washing it, he took it back. It happened that Xu Zhisheng quickly lit the fire with the help of solid alcohol, and then put the iron pot on it.

"General Cao, the fire has been lit, we washed the iron pot and put water on it. ”

Xu Zhisheng came in and explained to Cao Gong.

Cao Gong looked at the rice dumplings on the table. There were already a lot of them, exactly 65 rice dumplings.

In this case, he first cleaned up the rice dumplings and then took them out to cook them.

He came to the iron pot that was burning. Seeing that there was a lot of water in the pot, he scooped some out with a spoon to prevent the water from overflowing when the rice dumplings were put in.

This iron pot is considered large, and it was also prepared by Cao Gong for the program team.

Cao Gong arranged each zongzi in order so that more zongzi could be put in.

If they were not arranged neatly, they would be put in randomly, and they would not fit many zongzi.

He arranged all 65 zongzi as neatly as possible.

Then he covered the lid and looked at the time, 10 o'clock. []

Around 1 o'clock, you can turn the pot over and continue to boil.

By 4 pm, this pot is basically done.

As for the second pot, it will be boiled from 5 pm to 11 pm, which is enough.

Song Dandan and her friends' sweet zongzi can be cooked on the gas stove in the kitchen, because they are small and few, only 20 or 30, which is not too much, and the gas stove is just right.

Unlike Cao Gong's meat zongzi, which takes a long time to boil

"Can it fit in?" Wang Yuwen asked Cao Gong if he could fit so many.

"Yes, you can put 65 in, but you need to turn the pot over at 1 o'clock, otherwise the ones on the top will not be cooked." Cao Gong has calculated it and is very familiar with it.

"Go on, wrap these, and wait until later to cook this pot."

Meng Ziyi is now addicted and can wrap them easily.

Even Meng Ziyi's mother couldn't believe that this was her daughter when she watched the show?

She can actually wrap zongzi? Is this true? .
