Quzhou Media Network 丨Winter, that warm osmanthus sugar fried rice cake

In November, after an autumn rain, the yellow leaves fluttered randomly, and the laurel tree under the tree added a thick layer of flower grains, and the faint fragrance drifted far away, causing three or two housewives to sigh continuously, while saying that they had wasted so many good osmanthus flowers, while taking out the umbrella under the armpit to prop up and shake the laurel tree violently, at the end of the umbrella, the osmanthus flowers were poured into the bag, saying that they were ready to wait for the cold to fry osmanthus rice cakes for the family, a capable housewife!

The flower bloom period is short, the simple osmanthus flower is even more loved by everyone, and how many talented literati rioters are chanting poems under this tree, such as I can only go to the park to steal a branch and bring it back to the window, with its dark incense surging until the withered railing is still empty. For most housewives, the greatest value of osmanthus is that it can be turned into a delicacy on the table, such as the plate of osmanthus sugar fried rice cakes loved by young and old, after all, it is too elegant to smell and appreciate cinnamon.

The harvested osmanthus flowers have to see several days to get rid of the moisture, a wide dustpan is brought in and out every day, for the sake of the family's happiness, the housewives have a lot of time and patience, when the osmanthus flowers become brown particles can be put in bags for backup.

After entering the winter, the rice cakes of the new rice are kept in water, two sticks are fished out and cut into thin slices, a spoonful of clear oil in a hot pot, stir-fried on a high heat while sprinkling white sugar osmanthus flowers, the dried flower grains quickly stretch the leaf petals under the impact of the hot steam, and the rich aroma envelops each piece of rice cake, how to eat well.

The father left early, and the brother became the responsibility of the family at a young age. One year, my brother brought two classmates back to help, and he cut rice in the field all day, and when he returned, he still hummed and carried a burden on his shoulders. Mom is both grateful and distressed, and it is actually normal to cook a few more plates of good dishes for them in the stove room. A day of field work is also really hungry, the table is no longer polite, a moment of wind and clouds, and finally dried off two plates of steaming osmanthus fried rice cakes, especially the small ones, eat super tasteful.

At night, I was woken up in a daze, and it turned out that my brother's small classmate had a stomach discomfort, and the barefoot doctor had been invited to the house, saying that he had left a few tablets of antidote medicine. The next day, the little brother only drank porridge, and her mother was full of overheating and heartache. The little brother is now in the field, the career is booming, and when he returns to his hometown, he also mentions the trouble of eating osmanthus rice cakes in the past, which makes the people on the side laugh and say that they understand. When I was a student, the strongest memory was nothing more than eating, and most of the students' lunch boxes during the school period were white rice and plum dried vegetables, going home once a week, and staying on the weekend was tantamount to a hungry tiger going down the mountain.

Look again, the osmanthus has fallen. Under the warm sun, holding a cup of clear and transparent osmanthus tea, the hot air has not entered the throat is smooth. In the kitchen, Mom's osmanthus sugar fried rice cake is waiting to be plated.
