Chapter 493 [Street Corner Pancakes]
For Fang Chang’s request, the peasant woman had nothing to do with it. After all, the amount of money Fang Chang gave was slightly more than buying a new basket. So she handed the basket containing the eggs to Chang Fang, took the money, and happily went to the side to find a new basket.
Fang Chang found another stall selling deep-fried dough sticks and tofu nao, and saw that the stall owner had fried deep-fried dough sticks in a set of four, all of which were stuck upright in an oily basin, and a coarse-mesh bamboo curtain was used to control the oil.
This small stall is run by a couple. The fritters that are fished out of the oil pan, Huang Chengcheng is really cute. There is also a stack of straw paper next to it. Whether it is eaten at the stall or bought away, the stall owner uses straw paper to pass the fried dough sticks in a package.
"Shopkeeper, I'll buy all these fritters." Fang Chang stepped forward and said.
"Ah?" The stall owner seemed a little surprised and obviously hesitated, but he immediately agreed, and then he quickly weighed the fried dough sticks, collected the money by the catty, took a lot of straw paper to wrap the fried dough sticks, and put them in the square. in the basket.
"Fry another half a catty for me, and have a bowl of tofu nao."
"Okay." Thanks to Fang Chang's patronage, today's business must be better than other times. The stall owner was very happy and went to knead the noodles neatly.
His wife next to him quickly put a spoonful of extremely tender tofu in the bowl, filled the bowl with the soup in the big pot next to it, and handed it to Fang Chang: "Please use it slowly, if the soup is not enough, you can add more."
But Fang Chang didn’t add soup. For him, more or less doesn’t make a big difference, and there’s no need to take advantage of it like everyone else.
But before leaving after eating, he asked the stall owner where to buy the yellow paper to wrap the fried dough sticks. According to the instructions of the stall owner, Fang Chang went to a hot shop in the east of the city and bought enough yellow paper.
...
After buying eggs, fried dough sticks, and yellow paper, the raw materials Fang Chang needs are ready.
He returned to the intersection he had chosen, put down the pole, untied the stove, then took out the torch, shook it lightly a few times, and ignited the kindling inside the stove.
The furnace has been filled with coals, which are much more resistant to burning than firewood. These coals in the furnace are enough for him to use for a day.
While waiting for the flame to grow stronger, Fang Chang had already spread the iron plate on the stove, and then wiped it carefully.
He put the shallots that he had pulled from the vegetable bed and washed in the Huanhua River on the iron plate, cut the green onions with a thin shovel, put them in a container, and put them aside for later use.
The temperature finally came up.
Fang Chang is going to make pancakes for himself first, although everything has been prepared, he has to try it first.
Taking a small porcelain basin, Fang Chang scooped two spoonfuls of noodles into it, sprinkled some salt on it, then took a bowl from the altar of spring water he brought, slowly added it and kept stirring until the contents The batter becomes runny.
Scooped a spoonful, poured it on the iron plate, and then swirled it gently with the rake I made.
If it is broken, put it aside and change to another spoonful.
Brush the iron plate with a thin layer of oil again, dip the small wooden rake in water, and spread the batter again. It turned out to be a success this time, and the batter was spread out into a circle and quickly solidified under the heat of the iron plate.
Crack an egg, lightly smash it with a wooden rake, spread it on the pancake, sprinkle a few scallions on it, and turn it over with a shovel after the egg liquid has solidified—the aroma diffuses instantly, and it is many times more fragrant than when you eat it.
Immediately, pedestrians in the distance were attracted by this fragrance.
Fang Chang used a homemade small brush to brush the layer sauce on the back of the pancake, sprinkled a few pickles before putting the fried dough sticks in, and used a small shovel to return the pancakes on all sides.
At the same time, he had already grabbed a piece of yellow paper in his left hand.
Lifted the shovel, gently shoveled up the finished pancakes, and sandwiched them between the yellow paper.
He is very satisfied with his first work. The pancake in his hand is thin and soft, with the golden and snow-white color of the egg on the outside, mixed with chopped green onion, exuding a very attractive aroma. The smell when it was just cooked has already attracted many people, and it seems that they are going to stop here to have a look, or come to ask.
However, Fang Chang ignored the customers who were about to come to the door. He picked up the pancake in his hand and opened his mouth to eat it.
It’s the first work, try it yourself.
It is almost as expected, it doesn't taste as good as it smells, but the taste is very good. The pancakes wrapped in eggs are very soft to the bite, and with the crispness of the new fried dough sticks, the taste is very rich. Eggs, chopped green onion, sauce, pickles, and the respective flavors of noodles and fried dough sticks form a distinct sense of hierarchy.
Delicious enough.
The most important thing is that this kind of food is very convenient to eat. It only needs to be clipped with yellow paper like a biscuit, and it can be eaten after a little cooling. It is very friendly for people who are in a hurry.
It's just that Fang Chang came a little late and missed the morning time.
A few diners came over and stopped in front of the stall.
Some saw Fang Chang eating by himself, turned his head and left after a few glances, some stood still and waited, and one asked:
"Shopkeeper, what's your name for this thing? How do you sell it?"
Fang Chang smiled while eating: "This object is called pancake. Here, it is what I have in my hand. The price is not expensive, and it costs four coins. If you want it, just wait for a while, and I can make it after I finish eating."
"Okay, it looks very good." The visitor nodded and said, "Then make me one, and you can eat it quickly, shopkeeper."
As if lured by the aroma to make up his mind, the customer urged Fang Chang.
The people next to him saw that they had taken the lead, and immediately started to follow suit: "The price is really right, give me a try too, I like eggs, can I add more eggs? How do I sell them?"
Fang Chang ate the remaining corner of the pancake in three or two bites, and said: "Every extra egg will add an extra penny. Don't worry, everyone, we have all of them, and they will be made very quickly."
After comforting the next few customers, he immediately began to brush the oiled pancakes and flip them over to eat eggs. The set process seemed to be very smooth, and it didn't look like he just started making the second one.
It is the method of making pancakes. Although there are many tricks in it, Fang Chang's understanding and intelligence are both superb, coupled with extremely coordinated limbs. , and some unique understandings.
The business here is very good.
Because the aroma of the pancakes is really strong and spreads far and wide, many adults and children who smell it will come to have a look. In addition, some people here are already buying it. After seeing Fang Chang's smooth movements and the seasonings added to it, many newcomers made up their minds to give it a try.
Of course, the most popular time is at noon. There are many people passing by here, and most people in the city have a little money in their pockets, so they are able to buy some better lunches for themselves, or bring this novelty food home to their children and the elderly. The daughter-in-law tried it, so Fang Chang's business experience is very good.
