After stewing the eel bones for a stick of incense on high heat, they turned milky white. After a little seasoning, they were fragrant. Du Heng took out the eel bones and then served the bone soup in a large basin. He added half a pot of water to the pot where the eel bones were boiled, and covered the pot and started boiling water.

He poured hot oil into the pot again, and Du Heng also scooped a spoonful of milky white lard into the soybean oil. After the lard melted, he poured minced garlic and shredded ginger into the oil. I wonder if lard was added, but the ginger and garlic that stir-fryed this time had a particularly fragrant smell.

After smelling the fragrance, Du Heng poured the eel shreds into the pot and stir-fry. Every time he saw Du Heng stir-frying things, it was a pleasure. After cooking the white wine, the flames ignited in the pot. Du Heng stirred the eel shreds easily in the heat. Soon the soft eel shreds were heated and curled slightly.

He added soy sauce and sugar to the pot to season it, dyed with sauce-colored eel shreds and looked oily, like the stir-fried mushrooms made by Du Heng before. A salty and sweet fragrance spread out. Du Heng quickly poured in the pot with thickening that had been prepared long ago.

A thin layer of thickening was added to the eel shreds, which looked very good. After stir-frying, a thick soup appeared between the shreds. Du Heng scooped up a little soup and tasted it a little, which was a little sweet. He added a little salt to the pot. After tasting it again this time, the taste was almost the same.

At this time, we have to use a large killer weapon for eel shreds. The eel shreds without pepper are soulless. Du Heng was relieved and boldly sprinkled pepper in the pot, and a choking smell spread. Jing Nan accidentally got too close and sneezes several times on the spot.

After stir-frying, the sauce was closed over high heat, and the thin thickening became rich. Before leaving the pot, Du Heng added a pinch of minced garlic and chopped green onions on the top of the eel shredded eel, and then he scooped a spoonful of lard and put it in a pot to heat it. When white smoke appeared on the lard, he drizzled the small spoonful of lard on the minced garlic and chopped green onions.

I heard the minced garlic and chopped green onion sound, and a fresh and fragrant shredded eel is out of the pot!

Eel shreds should be eaten while it is hot, and the taste will be greatly reduced if it is cold. Du Heng knows this well.

At this time, the water in the big pot had already started. He generously threw most of the hand-rolled noodles in the pot, and the noodles floated on the water. At this time, sprinkle a handful of vegetables that were so tender that they could pinch out the water, and the soup in the pot would be dyed green.

After the noodles were ripe, Du Heng used a bridle to serve the noodles and vegetables in a large bowl. He poured bone soup without noodles into each large bowl. There were fewer bone soup, and it was gone after making ten bowls.

At this time, I looked at the big bowl and saw that the bowl was green and white. The noodles were mixed with vegetables and immersed in the delicious eel bone soup, which looked very light. However, when Du Heng poured a large spoonful of eel shreds into the bowl, the light noodles became extremely thick.

Du Heng shouted in the direction of the cave: "Have you got up? Have you eaten! Today I will eat eel noodles, and I will eat them while they are hot!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the generals in the cave came out. Chonghua couldn't help but take a sip of the soup first: "Ah, it reminds me of the dragon beard noodles on New Year's Eve~"

Du Heng smiled and said, "It's not dragon beard noodles, this is ordinary hand-rolled noodles. The soup is eel bone soup. Do you still like it if you try it?"

Chonghua had already drunk the soup and sucked the noodles. He nodded while eating: "It's delicious." Yun Zhengze looked at the wooden barrel: "It turns out that the eels in the ditches also have this kind of taste. I'll catch more tomorrow."

Lao Dao said: "It's cold now, and there are not many eels on the mountain. If you want to catch them, you can only go to the foot of the mountain." Yun Zheng nodded: "Well, I know where there are. I saw Mr. Du's family catch eels there."

Du Heng said casually: "My kitten is so amazing. I caught loaches last time. The loaches are delicious and very plump when they are ready."

Xiaoxiao didn't raise his head, and he couldn't stop eating it. The chewy hand-rolled noodles were both vigorous and flexible in their mouths, with rich bone soup, and soup was hung on the noodles. That's all, the eel shreds on it were too delicious.

Xiaoxiao has also seen eels in the village. This kind of fish looks like a snake. Xiaoxiao usually dislikes it when he sees it. Now the eel silk in his mouth is fat, tender and delicious, salty and slightly sweet, and it tastes oily and fragrant. I just regret that Du Heng didn’t give him more eel silk. It’s so enjoyable to eat a bowl of steaming eel silk noodles in a slightly cool weather!

Feng Gui is very principled. Even though he knows that the eel noodles prepared by Du Heng are already delicious, he still wants to add a red layer of chili oil. While sucking the hand-rolled noodles, he asked Du Heng: "Why don't you make more? I see that there are still a lot of eels in the wooden barrel."

Du Heng smiled and said, "I'm going to bake mooncakes later. I'm afraid that everyone will not be able to eat mooncakes if they eat too much."

Hearing the words "baking mooncakes", Feng Gui noticed the oven on the platform. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Xuan Yu: "Have you returned to the village?"

Xuan Yu nodded: "Well, I'm back." Feng Gui made the same accusation as Jing Nan: "Why didn't you tell me? I would have asked you to help me bring my collection at home."

Xuan Yu said seriously: "Your collection is too many, I'm afraid that someone will find out what you do is too obvious, but I brought Jing Nan's elixir." Feng Gui hummed angrily: "If someone enters my house, all the collections will be plundered by them."

Xuan Yu said calmly: "It's okay, even if they snatch your stuff, you will let them spit it out intact." Feng Gui nodded with satisfaction: "Well, it makes sense."

Xiaoxiao was not satisfied with eating a bowl of noodles. He drank all the bone soup and licked Du Heng's plate of eel shreds. Xiaoxiao, who was still unsatisfied, tweeted twice at Du Heng's accusation. Du Heng rubbed Xiaoxiao: "How about I'll make you a stew of fairy eggs for you?"

Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up: "Chirp!" The deal was completed!

After breakfast, Du Heng and Xuan Yu were officially busy. This time, there were quite a few people helping. Jing Nan, who was the most rounded elixir, assigned the task to round the less round mooncakes. Feng Gui, who could use magic to make dumplings, took over the job of making mooncakes together.

Lao Dao and Yun Zheng were very strong, so they were responsible for guarding the oven. When the time came, they would bring out the baked mooncakes and stuff the new mooncakes in. The Zhou brothers stood beside Du Heng, and they were responsible for helping kneading the dough.

Du Heng had made water and oil skin and ghee before. He made pastries such as chicken crisps and egg tarts before. Du Heng was lazy and he wrapped the ghee with water and oil skin. This time, he needed to make mooncakes, and then kneaded the water and oil skin and ghee respectively and then rolled them together.

He prepared a lot of stuffing and naturally used a lot of flour. The Zhou brothers were not good at doing anything else, and they did a job that required strength. The oil pastry and oil skin were divided into two halves by Du Heng, and the Zhou brothers accounted for half of them and were carefully kneading and rolling. If only Du Heng could knead the dough for a whole day.

After the kneaded skin is cut into cylindrical dosage, you can see layers of patterns from the side. Du Heng and his team divided the work and kneaded the dosage into balls and then pressed into a cake shape. Of course, the filling that had been prepared long ago must not be missing in the middle.

Du Heng also had to look at the filling while wrapping the mooncakes. The sweet filling he made could be eaten directly. Jing Nanfenggui Xiaoxiao and the others were not polite at all. As long as he didn't pay attention, he would immediately stuff a piece into his mouth.

Especially the five-nut filling mixed with syrup and cooked flour was eaten the most. Du Heng looked carefully and found that the filling in the wooden basin was missing a large bowl. Seeing that at the end, he also joined the ranks of eating the filling.

The five-nut filling is crispy and fragrant enough without baking. You can eat large kernels by biting a bite of the real ingredients and chewing them at will. It’s strange that I didn’t see everyone so active when eating nuts. During the Chinese New Year, there were nuts on the table, except for Xiaoxiao and Fenggui. This time, the five-nut filling was deeply loved by Du Heng.

Five-nut mooncakes with slightly different shapes soon appeared on the chopping board. At this time, Du Heng gave Xiaoxiao a task, which was to brush a layer of egg liquid on the surface of the mooncake. The egg liquid was placed in a large bowl with yellow and yellow, and Xiaoxiao grabbed a small brush made of nine-tail hair on his claws. Every time Du Heng and the others made one, he would brush one.

The egg liquid is not just a casual brush. Just brush a layer of egg liquid with five kernel fillings. The bean paste filling needs to be sprinkled with some black sesame seeds after brushing the egg liquid, and the fresh meat and egg yolk need to be sprinkled with white sesame seeds.

Du Heng prepared not enough egg liquid to brush all the mooncakes, and he also prepared a lettering mold made of rouge fruit. Xiaoxiao was very careful. He only brushed the first fifty pieces of each type of stuffing, and the same filling at the back, so he printed the juice of rouge fruit with the mold and pressed the lettering.

Domineering or steady fonts appeared on the crust of the mooncake, with the words "fresh meat egg yolks" and "five kernels" or "red bean paste".

Everyone was very interested in division of labor and cooperation. When Chonghua delivered the first stove of mooncakes to the oven, everyone was eagerly looking forward to the finished product. After two incense sticks, a rich fragrance wafted out of the oven.

Lao Dao put the first plate of mooncakes on the table: "Okay! Come and see everyone!"

I saw that the mooncake crusts on the plate had already become layered with layered crusts from the beginning. The mooncakes looked a circle larger than when they were just put down. One palm-sized mooncake was either brushed with egg liquid or engraved with words, and the fat and beautiful look was very cute.

The mooncakes with five-nut filling and bean paste filling were not distorted, but the fresh meat was slightly distorted. The plump gravy emerged from the crust and piled into a small pile next to the mooncake, and then it was baked and dried, leaving a brown mark on the outside of the crust.

Although the fresh meat mooncake looks bad, it is the most popular among everyone. According to Du Heng's observation, the first one that stretches out the claws is the fresh meat mooncake.

The fresh meat mooncake is wrapped in a complete salted egg yolk. Du Heng never stings with the ingredients when his family eats. The mooncake he made is held in his hands with two taels of one. The warm cake crust falls down as soon as it touches. Inside the crispy pie crust, the fresh meat is restlessly summoning people outside the pie crust. It makes people salivate when they smell it, let alone eat it.

Du Heng carefully bit open the pancake, and a crescent-shaped trace suddenly appeared on the mooncake. The pancake melted in his mouth, and the slightly salty pancake crust was like osmanthus flowers in the autumn wind scattered in his mouth, and the soft crispy powder wherever the tip of his tongue passed.

The fresh meat inside was tightly surrounded by the egg yolk. The fresh meat was full of gravy, and it was quite elastic when pinched gently. The juice gathered outside the meat and rolled into the outer skin. Take a bite and the fresh meat was mixed with the umami flavor of the egg yolk, which was completely different from the meat bun Sandian bun I ate before.

Take a bite of the meat filling and the juice inside burst out. If you need a word to describe the taste of this cake, then there is only one fresh word. Eating meat mooncakes is to keep it hot, just like eel shredded noodles, and you will lose your soul when it is cold.

Moon cakes need to be held in the palm of your hand and eaten carefully. If you are not careful, the crust may fall all over the floor before the cake reaches its mouth.

Zhou Xiyue made such a mistake. He was afraid that he would break the mooncake by grabbing it, so he pinched it with two fingers. Then the crust was loose, and the whole mooncake fell to the ground, smashing the crust all over the floor, leaving behind the meatballs in the middle.

Zhou Xiyue felt heartbroken and almost lay on the ground to pick up the meatballs. However, he failed. The kitten rushed out from the side and snatched the meatballs, and picked up the pancakes next to her. Zhou Xiyue only saw a little fat left on the ground. Ah, I was so angry.

Moon cakes with bean paste filling are also remarkable. Du Heng usually makes rice flour, sponge cakes, honey, red beans, etc., and everyone is very supportive. The baked red bean moon cakes today are crispy and soft inside, and are not greasy. Xuan Yu, who loves sweets, ate two in a row. If he hadn't kept his stomach and had five-nut filling moon cakes, Xuan Yu could have eaten two more.

Wuren mooncake is probably Du Heng’s favorite besides meat mooncakes.

It's funny. When Du Heng was in his hometown, the five-nut mooncakes were demonized by everyone. Everyone said that the five-nut should get out of the mooncake world, but Du Heng liked to eat the five-nut. The carefully selected nuts were baked carefully, and the sweetness of their mouth was filled with. You could see the full variety of nuts when you opened them. How could it not be delicious?

Later, Du Heng realized that the five people we ate were not authentic five-nuts. Many of the five-nut mooncakes sold in our hometown were all things that merchants made up for their numbers. Unfortunately, the real five-nuts were taken the blame.

Du Heng broke a five-nut mooncake and saw complete almonds, cashews, large walnuts and melon seeds and peanuts in the brown filling, and black sesame seeds were decorated with them. Under the softness of sugar and cooked flour, they were united together and sweetly.

Du Heng likes the feeling of chewing the filling inside when biting the five kernels. The large nuts are mixed together and sweet. When you chew them carefully, you can taste the taste of each ingredient. For example, the one Du Heng is eating, and the oil will be leached out as soon as you bite. This is the taste that only walnuts have.

The three fillings satisfy most people's tastes. Even Feng Gui, a unruly and spicy man, ate it with Wu Ren. Du Heng felt that it was worth it for him to have been busy for most of the day!

Xiaoxiao ate the most, and when he was not careful, he ate nine mooncakes and drank them. When Du Heng thought he was going to eat the tenth mooncake, Xiaoxiao jumped off the chair and walked to the cave. Du Heng was just curious where Xiaoxiao was going, but he heard Feng Gui say, "Let him go."

Du Heng quickly understood, and Xiaoxiao went to send Jinghong mooncakes!

For a moment, Du Heng felt mixed feelings in his heart, and he didn't know what to say. Among these people, Xiaoxiao was the direct victim, and others shouted and killed were actually nonsense. Only Xiaoxiao had the right to decide not to forgive Jinghong. Xiaoxiao knew that Jinghong was the murderer who harmed him, but he took the initiative to give her moon cakes...

Du Heng didn't know what Xiaoxiao was thinking, although he once felt pity for seeing Jinghong, now he only felt contradictory when he saw Jinghong.

Unexpectedly, Xiaoxiao took that step first, Du Heng felt that his mind and demeanor were not as strong as Xiaoxiao.

After a while, Xiaoxiao came back. He slapped his wings and chirped a few times. Du Heng didn't understand, and Xuan Yu explained: "Xiaoxiao said that Jinghong cried when he saw the mooncake. He said that Jinghong was actually more pitiful than him. Although he had no spiritual roots, there were so many people around him who really cared about him. But Jinghong did not, she was even more pitiful than Xiaoxiao."

Feng Gui looked at him deeply and smiled: "Fenglin, you must also remember that poor people must have something hateful."

Xiaoxiao shook his wings: "Chirp."

Du Heng looked at Xuan Yu, and Xuan Yu said, "Xiaoxiao said, he doesn't care."

The baked mooncakes should be placed in the refrigerator while they are still hot. Du Heng ordered some. After everyone had a hard meal, he still had 121 meat mooncakes, 183 bean paste, and 166 five-nut mooncakes. According to the principle of average distribution, each person can get twelve bean paste, eighteen bean paste, and sixteen five-nut mooncakes.

Du Heng placed the mooncakes evenly in the food box according to the heads, and the remaining mooncakes were placed on the plate, filling up a large plate. Du Heng thought that he should eat these mooncakes, but his mind always had a embarrassed face and desperate eyes.

When Du Heng stared at the plate in a daze, he stretched out a hand and took the plate away. Du Heng turned his head and looked at Xuan Yu: "Hmm? Xiaoyu, do you want to eat mooncakes?"

Xuan Yu said, "Give Jinghong a few." Du Heng didn't say anything, Xuan Yu said, "There is no regret medicine in the world. Jinghong can no longer turn back when he did something wrong. It depends on how she chooses in the future."

Du Heng nodded silently: "Well, okay."
