Chapter 842 842. Red and White
But the sweet potato that can be baked in an air fryer for 40 minutes is definitely not the one that Qiao Qiao is holding in both hands.
He stared at the sweet potato in his hand happily, and then quickly took out a branch to scrape off the mud on it:
"I'm going to bring this to the king to eat!"
Song Youde came over pulling the sweet potato vines, and smiled when he saw this: "This nest looks like they are all red-skinned. If you want to eat them, go to another place to dig. The red-skinned ones are choking."
"Okay!" Qiao Qiao had already put the big sweet potatoes into the basket, and while pulling and digging them out by the roots, he said: "Then I'll dig one for each of them, and then I'll change places after digging. I want to eat them raw."
As he was talking, he heard Wang Lifen calling him from the ridge in front: "Qiao Qiao, come and dig here. This one is exposed to be a white-skinned one, and the white-skinned one is crispy and sweet when eaten raw!"
Qiao Qiao instantly threw the nest of red-skinned ones in his hand behind his head, and then ran over several ridges.
This scene made the barrage of comments sour and envious:
[Give it to me, I'm not picky]
[I just like the red-skinned ones steamed! I don't like the watery white-skinned ones.]
[Me, me, me! Look at me, host! I like to eat them raw too!]
[This old variety of raw sweet potato must be crispy, sweet and chewy, right? The sweet potatoes and smoked potatoes sold now are hard and taste bad when eaten raw.]
[Cooked! Sweet potatoes are the best! The old varieties are too big for one person to eat.]
[It's getting cold soon, so the host's family should cook pig food, right? When I was a child, these old varieties of big sweet potatoes were chopped up to feed pigs.]
[Damn it! When I think of those pigs eating better than me, I want to eat the pig-killing dish!]
It rained two days ago, and the surface of the land was slightly dry, but it was moist underneath. Qiao Qiao took the branch and skillfully dug underneath - it didn't matter if the skin was broken, they were all going to be eaten soon anyway.
Soon, a big nest was dug out!
"Wow!"
He said in surprise: "They are growing well!"
That's right, this nest of white-skinned sweet potatoes is simply a gratitude potato! The two ends are pointed and the middle is round, with a diameter of about seven or eight centimeters in the middle, which is the most ideal state of sweet potatoes.
Moreover, the sweet potatoes in this nest are all about the same size, without any pits or scars...
Qiao Qiao was so happy that she sat on the ground and began to distribute the sweet potatoes:
"This one is buried in the stove pile, this one is to be steamed, this one is to be cooked into sweet potato porridge, and this one I want to eat raw - ah, and there is also my sister's!"
"We also need to dry the sweet potatoes! Cut them thicker and dry them half-dry, so that they are very sweet when you bite them! Not too hard, but chewy..."
Everyone in the live broadcast room almost cried.
[I knew that there would be a sudden live broadcast without any notice, either to show delicious food or to prepare to eat delicious food]
[Wow, I want to eat it too! ! ]
[This nest of sweet potatoes is really standard! Standard and large. Steamed in a pot on a rural earthen stove, I don’t know how sweet it is! ]
[Speaking of dried sweet potatoes reminds me of what I ate when I was a child. It was especially delicious in the first few days of drying, but it was not good after drying for a long time. ]
[I remember it too! In order to keep it dry and hard for the Chinese New Year, it takes half an hour to grind a piece of it in your mouth! ]
[There was nothing to eat during the Chinese New Year when I was a child! My mother lit a candle on New Year's Eve, took a hacksaw blade, and wrapped white sugar at home]
[? ? ? Lighting candles on New Year's Eve, is there no electricity? What is the purpose of wrapping white sugar? ]
[Hahaha, the person in front looks young]
[The candles are lit to burn the hacksaw blades, and the hacksaw blades are burned because the plastic bags are sealed. ]
[The plastic bags are sealed because every household buys bulk white sugar and packs them by themselves]
[The childhood memory that is about to disappear appears! A bottle of wine, a bag of sugar... I went around when visiting relatives, and finally found it after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and it was sent back to my own home. ]
[Oh my god, it's all about the Chinese New Year... I want to eat this sweet potato now! ]
[Does the anchor sell dried sweet potatoes? ]
[Damn it, if it doesn't work out, I'll take the position of the king, you leave the big sweet potato to me]
[Curious, the sweet potato dried when I was a child was grayish yellow, not the honey orange red that is sold now...]
The appearance of a few simple sweet potatoes instantly ignited the enthusiasm of the fans in the live broadcast room. Everyone talked about it, either reminiscing about the past or looking forward to the New Year, and it was obvious that they were very involved.
But Qiao Qiao didn't have any of these feelings of participation.
When he was born, his family all had Nokias. At most, he remembered that his grandmother occasionally dried sweet potatoes, cut ordinary red-skinned sweet potatoes into slices and put them on the bamboo curtain, dried them for a day or a half, and then took them out to eat. The taste was not very good. I only remember that white starch residue was precipitated on them.
However, he didn't look at the barrage and naturally wouldn't think about the past now. It was just quite distressing to find that even if this nest of sweet potatoes was big and numerous, it was enough to count the sister and the parents.
"I want to dig out another nest!"
He held the branch, very solemnly.
Grandma said with a smile: "Then dig in this ridge, I guess they are all white-skinned. Take them home and eat them first. Your grandfather and I don't like to eat them."
"Why?" Qiao Qiao looked up in surprise.
Grandma cut the sweet potato vines neatly and said in a relaxed tone: "We ate enough when we were young!"
"And your dad, when he was a child, he didn't eat anything. Every day he either ate sweet potatoes or went to the mountains to find wild fruits...Sweet potatoes make your heart burn, and wild fruits are sour and the more you eat, the hungrier you get...We don't like to eat them."
Qiao Qiao blinked blankly, not quite understanding why there was no food. When he was at home, his sister would often buy her food when she was in school.
But he didn't ask, because adults always have some strange little secrets that can't be explained clearly, and he will know them when he grows up, but he wants to eat sweet potatoes more now!
So he lowered his head, took the branch and continued to move forward along the hole he had just thrown.
Song Youde dragged the sweet potato vines to the roadside and came back. Seeing his energetic look, he couldn't help but say: "This silly boy, he took a hoe to dig after the sweet potato vines were done, but he still used a stick to pry and pry..."
"What do you care!" Wang Lifen rolled her eyes at him: "It's enough for the child to be happy... I'll fiddle with your mobile phone later and see if anyone can help me. Let's straighten all the sweet potato stalks."
As she said, she turned over another layer of sweet potato vines: "Look, many of them are still tender and can be eaten."
Song Youde nodded: "Okay, I'll ask Tan Tan to ask those old friends who weave mats together to come over, give them a meal in the evening, and ask them to help us straighten more sweet potato stalks in the afternoon."
Then looking at this piece of sweet potato field, he couldn't help but straighten up and imagine:
"It's going to be cold soon, and I'll cook pig food. With so many sweet potatoes, I may save a lot of money!"
The live broadcast room in the distance where no one cared about heard this and went crazy instantly-
[Why can't I eat what pigs eat? ! 】
I really love eating sweet potatoes raw, but the sweet potatoes I bought in recent years are delicious when cooked. They are very hard when eaten raw, not juicy enough, and not too sweet.
So if you have any good recommendations, please comment and recommend!
Update 1, there is more.
