Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger

Chapter 372 Crab Soup with Noodles

"Blessing!"

Many people who saw Lai Fu swimming happily in the small pond were confused.

When did Lai Fu Club start swimming?

"Wang..."

When Lai Fu heard Xuanyu's voice, he swam ashore quickly, shouted to Xuanyu, then shook off the water on his body and ran to Xuanyu.

"No, don't come over here." When Xuanyu saw Lai Fu, who was wet all over, trying to rub against his feet, he quickly ran out of the vegetable garden.

When he returned to the yard, Xu Zhi saw many people running out in a hurry, "What's wrong?"

Then he saw Lai Fu chasing after many people, his body all wet, and he felt a little puzzled.

"Second sister, I'm telling you, I saw Lai Fu swimming in the pond, and he was having a great time."

"Woof..." Lai Fu stuck out his tongue, barked, wagged his tail, and lay down in the sun.

Xu Zhi glanced at Lai Fu who was lying on the ground. After this period of feeding, he had grown a little from being listless and skinny when he first came back to being a baby. He had also gained a lot of weight and looked much more energetic.

"All the dogs in the village can swim. Isn't that normal? I just didn't expect Lai Fu to be so brave despite being so small." Xu Zhi replied.

During this period of time, Xu Zhi has seen clearly that Lai Fu is very smart and can understand what everyone is saying. Brother Gu has really picked up an incredible treasure.

"No wonder Lai Fu is so powerful." Many people muttered.

……

in the kitchen.

Xu Yuan had already chopped the chili and ginger and put them aside.

It was already late and he had to have lunch. Xu Yuan took out the dough that had been leaving for half a day, put it on a clean panel, kneaded it, and then used a rolling pin to spread it into thin slices, and then cut it into strips.

Guozi sat by the stove, looking at the fire, waiting for the water in the pot to boil.

Xu Zhi came in with a plate of crab sauce and a lot of it. The ingredients for making crab tofu had been prepared, and all that was left was to make the sauce.

"Sister, are we going to eat noodles today?" When Xuanyu saw Xu Yuan making noodles, he hurried over.

"There's no time to cook rice, so let's eat noodles." Xu Yuan didn't stop cutting, and after a few cuts, several long strips of noodles were piled aside.

Manyu brought a small stool, washed his hands, dried them with a clean towel, rolled up his sleeves, picked up the rolling pin that was put aside, and said to Xu Yuan, "Sister, let me roll the noodles."

"Okay, just don't roll it too thick."

Xu Zhi saw steam coming out of the wooden lid and quickly opened it.

A scent of crab wafted out.

When Guozi smelled the scent, his stomach couldn't help but growl twice. He felt a little hungry.

"Second sister, is this okay?"

Looking at a pot of soup that he didn't know how to describe, Guozi asked curiously.

"Not yet, wait till I filter these out."

Xu Zhi took a vegetable sieve and a wooden spoon and filtered out the crab juice from the pot spoonful by spoonful.

A quarter of an hour later, a pot of crab soup became crystal clear after filtering out the residue. It was poured into the pot again, and Guozi was told to light the fire again.

Guozi was a little curious about what was going to happen next, so he filled the stove with dry firewood, then stood up and walked to Xu Zhi's side.

Xu Zhi took a spoon, scooped up the crab juice from the basin and put it into the crab soup.

A magical scene happened. The crab juice did not melt into the soup, but formed a thin sheet.

Guozi couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw it, "How magical! It actually took shape."

"This is crab tofu, it's so magical." Xu Yuan came over with the noodles cut into strips. Xuanyue brought the small stool again, stood aside, sniffed the aroma wafting from the pot, and felt even hungrier.

After helping Xu Zhi scoop all the crab juice from the basin into the pot, I boiled it for a while and then scooped it all out. I then used the crab soup in the pot to cook the noodles one by one.

"I'm hungry, so go eat first." Xu Yuan looked at the two people standing on both sides with bright eyes and urged.

"Okay, big sister, I'll go eat first." Many people were already starving, and the food smelled so good, how could they resist not eating it.

"Well, I'll go too." Guozi threw down the fire tongs in his hand, quickly opened the cabinet, took out the dishes, washed them, and put them on the table.

Xu Yuan scooped out the crab tofu and brought it to the table. "Be careful, it's a little hot."

"Sister, do you want to put some cabbage down?"

Xu Zhi felt that having only noodles in the pot was not enough, and that something else had to be put in.

"Sure. I have some Chinese cabbages in the basket I brought back. Just take two or three and wash them."

With the help of high fire, the pot will soon boil. After adding the cabbage, it will be ready to be served after boiling a little more.

"Big sister, second sister, please try it. It's not so hot anymore. The tofu made with crabs is delicious, just like the fish balls, so smooth and tender."

Many people couldn't wait to blow on it, then quickly put it in their mouths and took a bite. "It's so smooth and delicious" was what many people thought at this moment, and they couldn't find any high-sounding words to describe it.

Guozi also tasted the delicious food that he had been working hard on for most of the day last night. It turned out to be such a delicious dish. It was not in vain.

No wonder it is called tofu, the taste is really like tofu, it is smooth and tender in the mouth, you don’t even need to chew it, you can just sip it and swallow it directly into your stomach.

"It'll be right there," Xuyuan replied, and started scooping noodles from the pot.

Xu Zhi put the remaining fire into the stove for boiling water nearby, and Xu Yuan had just finished, so he poured a bowl of water into the pot and brought a large bowl of noodles to the table.

The delicious flavor of the crab soup was completely absorbed by the noodles, and the crab tofu was soft, tender and smooth. Xu Yuan was very satisfied with the final taste. It was worth it to process the crabs for so long.

No one was talking at the table, there was only the sound of bowls and chopsticks colliding and noodles being slurped.

After finishing two bowls of food, Xu Yuan put down his bowl and chopsticks, scooped up half a bowl of noodle soup and crab tofu, got up and went out, and poured the rice into Lai Fu's bowl. Lai Fu was still lying in the yard lazily basking in the sun, but when he smelled something delicious, he stood up quickly, ran over and barked at Xu Yuan.

Lai Fu is really adapting to the local customs. When he first came here, he still had some of the personality of a wolf, but now he has become more of a silly dog. I wonder what he will look like when he grows up.

……

After lunch, Xu Yuan poured an appropriate amount of distiller's grains into the mashed crabs, then added chopped chili peppers, ginger and a handful of salt, poured it all in and stirred evenly.

Xu Zhi moved the jar that had been washed and dried to the yard.

Guozi and Xuanyu had already gone into the room to rest, saying that they would go catch crabs after waking up.

"Sister, you didn't pour out all the chili on the plate."

"It's enough here. I have another use for that." Xu Yuan replied, and poured all the mixed crabs into the jar. He moved it to a place specially for jars, sealed it, and poured a bowl of water on the mouth of the jar.

I'll wait for the changes after a month. As for what the taste will be, I don't know, but it should be delicious.

After finishing all this, he cleaned up the leftovers, added some salt to the half plate of chili, poured it into a sealed jar.

As for the crabs that have been processed but not crushed, they are placed in a natural freezer under the waterfall, waiting to be "favored".
