Chapter 194 Wolf Fang Potato
Chapter 194 Wolf Fang Potato
With a sizzling sound, an overpowering aroma wafted out of the air.
Xia Shiyu couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, it smells so good!"
She mixed the wolf-tooth potatoes well and couldn't resist taking a bite herself. The rich aroma of scallions and garlic, the crisp potatoes, the spicy chili peppers, and the other seasonings made it a truly exquisite wolf-tooth potato dish.
She started praising, "Oh my god, I think the wolf tooth potatoes that Dad made today deserve to be sold for twenty yuan a bowl in the scenic area. They're so delicious! Even if they weren't in the scenic area, they would be worth twenty yuan anywhere else."
"Hahaha," Xia Lihua laughed heartily.
"This is not just my achievement, but also because the ingredients are too good. With such good ingredients, those who specialize in making wolf tooth potato snacks will definitely make them taste good too."
"Hehe, anyway, I think my dad's cooking is delicious, and the house is clean and hygienic."
Xia Shiyu scooped out several bowls of wolf-tooth potatoes, then pushed out the remaining large portion, intending to send it to the neighbor next door.
My maternal grandparents have bad teeth, so they plan to eat crispy rice crust with soft potatoes later.
Yu Juan handed a bowl to Chen Yuzhu, saying, "Here, Yuzhu, have a taste."
"Thank you so much, Auntie. I was completely mesmerized by the aroma just now."
Chen Yuzhu happily accepted it. She had already thought it smelled delicious when she was standing next to it, and now it really smelled amazing and tasted even better.
"Okay, take your time eating, but there's more over there."
"That's enough, Auntie, you don't need to worry about me, I've had enough."
"Okay, that's enough."
While the two were talking, Xia Shiyu carried the small basin to the Xiang family's house next door.
"Auntie, please open the door. These are the wolf tooth potatoes we made at home this afternoon. Please take them and let the children have a taste."
"Oh, here it comes."
Aunt Wang was walking to open the door when her mischievous children beat her to it.
The two children excitedly ran to the gate of the yard and opened the door first.
"Sister Xia!"
Xia Shiyu patted one of the children on the head. "Oh, you're here. Be careful not to knock over anything. This is for you to eat."
"Okay, thank you, Sister Xia," the older child replied politely.
Actually, he was just doing his winter break homework, but the aroma made it impossible for him to continue. Aunt Wang understood why her grandchildren were so tempted, ever since Xia Shiyu came back to grow vegetables.
The aroma of food often wafted from their house. She had been thinking of taking some things to visit them and exchanging some with them, since the child wouldn't be staying there for much longer anyway.
Although her family has potatoes, she doesn't know how to cook them in such a variety of ways, and she's not very familiar with many of the seasonings and preparation methods.
Aunt Wang stepped forward and took the small bowl, saying apologetically, "Thank you so much, Shi Yu. It's one thing for us two old folks to eat, but we really can't do anything about these two kids wanting to eat. We can only spoil them."
"But don't rush off yet. I have some potato noodles here that I made myself, using potatoes from your own farm. You can take them home and eat them."
Xia Shiyu was pleasantly surprised, "Oh, thank you so much, Auntie. Making potato noodles is such a hassle. We haven't even bothered to make them at home because it's too much trouble."
After all, people usually buy potato starch noodles and sweet potato vermicelli from the market because they are cheap. However, there are many additives in the market, so homemade noodles are healthier and more hygienic.
She didn't expect that Aunt Wang's potato shop had already made potato noodles so soon after she bought them.
Aunt Wang chuckled, "Oh, I just wanted to send some to the children. Potatoes are too heavy; they'd be much better if they were made into flour."
"Okay, thank you, Auntie." Xia Shiyu took the potato noodles home. She was thinking that she would have to send something else over later, since making potato noodles would require a lot of potatoes, so she might as well just send some potatoes over.
With that thought in mind, Xia Shiyu took the potato noodles and went home.
Immediately after she left, Xiang Jianzhu's two children gathered in front of Wolf Tooth Potato.
I stared intently at the wolf-tooth potato, my mouth practically watering.
Aunt Wang, seeing their state, urged them, "You two, hurry up and get a bowl to divide it up."
"Okay," the two children quickly went to the kitchen and brought back bowls and spoons.
"Grandma, you should try some too." The eldest grandson handed the bowl to his grandmother, so that everyone could share the delicious food.
"Okay, okay, I'll try some too."
Aunt Wang took the bowl, scooped some for herself first, and then started serving the two children with wolf-tooth potatoes.
After receiving the wolf tooth potatoes, the two children began to eat them in large bites, usually one or two bites at a time.
"It's so delicious! It's even better than what I eat near school."
"Yes, this is even better than the food near our elementary school. Even the scallions are delicious."
Aunt Wang took a bite and nodded, "This skill and these ingredients are truly admirable. The Shi family is really impressive."
"Yes, yes!" The two children transformed into reading machines; with delicious treats in hand, everything they did was right.
Aunt Wang shook her head and left some for her husband, planning to wait for him to come back in the afternoon.
"Actually, we shouldn't have left it for your grandfather. He's always out playing cards and having a good time. He shouldn't be eating this snack."
Although that's what she said, she still put the things away.
However, the two children were already full, and although they still looked on with envy, they didn't rush to ask for more.
As soon as Xia Shiyu got home, Yu Juan noticed the potato noodles in her hand and said, "Why did you bring back a bunch of potato noodles?"
Xia Shiyu said, "These were given by Aunt Wang next door. I'll bring some more potatoes over later."
Yu Juan nodded, "Okay, okay, we should send some over. This is really too much trouble. It's so complicated that I'm too lazy to do it."
"Okay, I'll transfer it later."
Xia Shiyu went inside and picked up a bowl of crispy potato chips to eat.
Crispy potato is slightly softer and more glutinous than wolf tooth potato, and it tastes very good, making it suitable for older people's teeth.
Grandpa praised it, saying, "It's delicious."
Grandma nodded, "It really is delicious."
Xia Shiyu said, "I'll send some more to my uncle and his family later. The potatoes weren't ripe when they came back. If they had stayed a couple more days, the potatoes would have been harvested and they could have eaten them."
Yu Juan joked, "Fine, you decide what to do. They're not going to get any good food anyway."
"I'm not really in luck with the food, but I'll still make sure everything is in place. I'll send you some from time to time."
"Okay," Xia Shiyu nodded.
