Chapter 189 Jam
"Sister, if you don't peel all the skin, just leave the middle one. How can it be so troublesome!" Cui Jingping sat with him for a long time, and finally couldn't help it. He picked up a pineapple, made another gesture, and made a cut. Cui Wei knew that he was a little anxious at the moment. After all, he wanted to use these things in the future. Cui Jingping was more or less influenced by some of his own store opening, but she shook her head at Cui Jingping's words.
These pineapples seem to be a lot, but in fact they are not too many. They are gone after a few tossing. This thing is not like flour, eggs and other things. You can buy it if you want to buy it in Xiaowan Village. You have to wait until the season is ripe before you can harvest it. I don't know how much more she needs to make jam. How can she waste it at will. If every pineapple is peeled like Cui Jingping said when there is no special peeling tool, I don't know how much pulp will be wasted. Cui Wei thought for a moment, and suddenly the light moved, and her eyes lit up:
"Third brother, you go out and cut a piece of bamboo and come back. It should be thin, about the thickness of the thumb like this." Although I don't know why Cui Wei, who was in the middle of the night, wanted bamboo again, Cui Jingping nodded, took the knife and went out. There was a clump of such thin bamboo in front of Cui Wei's house, each of which could only grow to the thickness of his fingers. This kind of bamboo was extremely hard and not easy to break. In If such a thing hits people, and a few bamboos go down, the meat can swell up with a red mark. If you work harder, even the blood beads can be pulled out, which is extremely powerful.
Cui Jingping cut two back after going out. Cui Wei was afraid that there were insects on the bamboo leaves. She instructed him to remove the bamboo leaves outside. She only took a bare bamboo stick and came in. She picked the bamboo stick in the middle and lower part according to the largest part of the pineapple flower shape, and cut it into a knife to about the length of It was slanted. He cut the slanted mouth a little thinner with the tip of the knife. After washing it several times, he grinded the fine bamboo wire on the bamboo leaves with a coarse cloth, and touched it with his fingers. The slanted incision of the bamboo was quite sharp, like a knife. If you don't pay Yi nodded, took a knife and took a pineapple and peeled the pineapple peeled a thin layer, revealing some pulp, but there was still a lot of skin left on the pulp. Cui Jingping just wanted to speak, but when he saw that she took the bamboo stick and poked the pineapple and turned along the fingerprint-like skin. The pineapple was She danced in the palm of her hand. She turned around, and a string of round pulp fell to the ground with the skin. The pulp was suddenly empty for a short time, but it was much cleaner.
In this way, just like peeling pineapples in modern times, only a small amount of pulp is removed, and in this way, most of the pulp of the pineapple is preserved, which looks beautiful. After a while, Cui Wei quickly peeled out a pineapple and put it aside. When Cui Jingping saw her, his eyes almost fell out. He exclaimed at Cui Wei, "Sister, you are so awesome. You can think of it!" As he spoke, he also made a bamboo stick according to Cui Wei's appearance. The two brothers and sisters found a way to peel the pineapple. One took a knife to peel, and the other took a bamboo stick to pick the remaining pulp in the pineapple peel. In this way, the speed suddenly became much faster. The two pineapples were only about a quarter of an hour, and I picked it up clean.
Cui Wei washed these cleaned up pulp, cut the knife into small squares and threw it into the washed wooden basin. While holding it, she walked to the kitchen. Cui Jingping sat down by the kitchen and made a fire. The pot on the stove had already been cleaned. Cui Wei put some cane first. The sugar went down and watched the sugar melt and turned into light yellow and transparent, so the pineapple meat was thrown down. It took most of the night, wasted half a can of can of sucrose, and spent a lot of pineapple meat. By dawn, Cui Wei finally found some ways to make jam. She filled up this batch of jams that looked much more beautiful. It was extremely sticky. She picked a small piece of pineapple meat with her chopsticks and tasted it. I don Well, the pineapple, which was not very sour when it was eaten, looked beautiful after being boiled with sugar, but it was a little sour in her mouth. Cui Wei frowned, chewed a few times, and swallowed the pulp.
This pulp tastes good. It tastes a little soft and tender, but a little chewy. Regardless of the sour taste, the jam actually tastes very good. The strong and unusual smell of pineapple in it smells so fragrant that it makes people drool, but the sour taste is really a little unbearable. Cui Wei thought about it and simply put this pot. The pineapple meat was poured out, some honey was poured in, and the chopsticks were stirred. The taste was more fragrant. However, Cui Wei thought of the sour taste of the pineapple meat just now, and she didn't dare to taste it again. When the jam was cold, she put it into the jar. Looking at the thicker jam in the jar, she simply Get up and prepare to marinate it in a few days before tasting it. If it doesn't work, she will try again.
The brother and sister were busy for half a night, but it turned out to be like this. They simply boiled water and took a shower and didn't care about the pineapple, so they went to bed separately.
With this imperfect attempt, Cui Wei didn't dare to cut the pineapple for two or three days in a row. She was afraid that it would be rotten again if she didn't try a good method. What a pity. Fortunately, God has eyes this year. At this time of year, there is less rain, and she is not afraid that the pineapples in the field will rot quickly. Cui Wei has endured for three days, but finally couldn't help it and moved the jar out. At first, she was afraid that the pineapple in the jar would be broken. As the two brothers and sisters moved the jar to the yard, Cui Wei opened the tightly wrapped cloth on the top and took off the lid of the jar pressed inside. As soon as it was lifted, a unique fragrance of pineapple mixed with the sweetness of honey came out.
The black back in the dog house also trembled around and quietly walked over. Cui Wei looked into the jar and was immediately a little surprised. The flesh of the yellow orange in the jar was soaked in a piece of transparent light yellow honey. The pulp was crystal full, which made people have an appetite as soon as they looked at it. It was clear and bright, and did not appear turbid. Watching Cui Wei swallowing saliva, he greeted Cui Jingping and said, "Third brother, get me a bowl
Cui Jingping agreed and hurriedly ran into the room. Before long, he took a cleanly washed blue and white bowl and came out. There was also a spoon of the same color in it. Cui Wei took the spoon and scooped it into the jar. The water did not feel like touching water. On the contrary, it was like touching honey juice, with With this feeling alone, Cui Wei knew that the pulp she made on this trip should be successful. She put a small spoonful of pulp out, and the honey juice under the spoon kept dripping into the jar, almost connected to the jam in the jar, and there was no sound when it dripped.
handed this spoonful of jam to Cui Jingping to taste. Looking at his eyes, he suddenly widened, he couldn't help chewing, and his eyes were still staring at the jar. Cui Wei smiled at him, narrowed her eyes and said, "Third brother, is it delicious?" Cui Jingping didn't say anything, but kept nodding. Just by looking at his expression, I know the deliciousness of the jam. Cui Wei also went into the room to wash the dishes and spoons and scooped some out to taste it. Almost the sweet and sour proportion of the jam is just right, and the pulp is also extremely chewy. I'm afraid it's a little greasy after eating this for a long I'm afraid the spoon won't feel greasy. The most important thing is that if you put this sweet and sour jam on the cake, Cui Wei can almost imagine how attractive the taste is.
I didn't expect to get the jam out so easily. Cui Wei believes that if she made it a few more times, the jam she made would definitely taste better than this time, but it was already good this time. She simply made a cake in the afternoon and added two spoonfuls of jam on the cream. Cui Jingping was almost alone. After eating the cake, she looked like she wanted to eat it very much. Cui Wei also tasted it a few times, and the taste seemed to stay on the tip of her tongue.
Once she tried the recipe of jam, Cui Wei also touched some of the edges of making this thing. The pineapples that she didn't dare to cut in the field for a few days. Naturally, the brother and sister took advantage of this period to cut a lot every day and did things with the lights every day. Fortunately, Cui Wei's house was remote, and Usually, once Cui Shifu and others turn off the lights and go to bed, no one can see her side. During this period, the two brothers and sisters have been working at night, and they have also made several jars of jams. Because this thing has been cooked, coupled with honey soaked, the longer it is put, the more fragrant it will be, the stronger the After planting in the field for a long time, Cui Wei was afraid that it would break down, so she took advantage of this time to harvest a lot. In about ten days, the two of them even harvested half of the huge pineapple field.
There are not enough jars at home. Although there were already a lot of these jars and other things in Cui Wei's house because of making pastries, after putting a few jams, she used four or five jars, and there was not much honey and sucrose at home. The next day, she had to go to the market. Cui Wei Instead of cutting pineapples again, the brother and sister went to bed early. The next day, before dawn, Cui Wei got up and made a few cream cakes. On the other hand, she sprinkled some jam on it. Then she covered the blue and tied each cake with a piece of cloth and put it in the back. The two brothers and sister carried a basket and went to town . RS
