On the eleventh day of the first lunar month, there are still two days before my son starts school.
The sun is shining brightly and spring is in full bloom. While leisurely, I think of why not take advantage of the holiday to cook some delicious food.
So, he picked up the child and walked into the kitchen together.
? Food sounds very noble. It may be a beautiful talk about the delicacies of mountains and seas, it may be the delicacies of China on the tip of the tongue, it may be a wonder of color, fragrance and utensils.
However, the delicacy my son and I want to make together is vegetarian dumplings in carrot-colored coats.
The love is too deep and the affection is too strong, so let’s call it delicious food for now.
My son is in the fourth grade of elementary school this year. Despite his young age, he has a lot of clever ideas.
I had already prepared the vegetable filling, but he insisted on adding some diced carrots.
I didn’t want to make him unhappy, so I agreed to let him dice the carrots by himself.
I saw him putting on his apron and protective sleeves, picking up the kitchen knife in his right hand, holding the carrots in his left hand, and cutting them gracefully, looking like a chef.
I kept saying next to me, "First slice it, then stamp it into cubes. Slowly, gently, don't hurt your hands..." My son shouted to me very impatiently: "Mom, please stop teaching me. I want to
Learn to make it by yourself, I believe in my own ability!" I had no choice but to turn around and make the carrot-colored dough. While kneading and cutting, I secretly observed the little guy.
I saw him holding up diced carrots with his little hands and carefully putting them into the basin of ingredients he had prepared earlier... "Mom, can I put a small spoonful of salt in it?" Haha, the little guy really looks like that when cooking.
Something happened!
"You roll out the dough and I make the dumplings, okay?" I asked my son with a smile.
"Of course, no problem. Rolling out dough is my strong point!" After a reasonable division of labor, the two of us started the food adventure.
The son rolled out the dough calmly, not forgetting to comment.
"Mom, this carrot juice dough is far less easy to roll out than pure flour dough. It always sticks to the board and is easily deformed." I kept encouraging him, "Practice makes perfect. Come on, don't lose your strengths. I believe you will
Okay!" "Okay, okay, look how round this dough is, is it perfect?" In an instant, the little guy regained his previous confidence!
? ? Half an hour passed quickly, and the son suddenly put down the rolling pin and insisted on re-dividing the work. He said that he also wanted to eat the dumplings he made.
So, I was responsible for rolling out the dough, and he was responsible for making the dumplings.
He is really not afraid of food. He picks up the dumpling wrapper and pours the food with a spoon.
He was full of confidence in making the first dumpling, but he failed miserably.
The dumpling wrapper in my son's hand was full of vegetables inside and out. Because he didn't hold it firmly, the whole dumpling still had his mouth slightly open, as if he was smiling!
He said to me angrily, "Mom, please teach me, I must learn it!"? After some practice, my son finally mastered the technique of making dumplings!
He raised a freshly made dumpling over his head and said cheerfully, "Mom, look, my masterpiece! Does it look like a flower that just opened?" I quickly put down the rolling pin in my hand, picked up my phone and took a picture of my son.
A successful work!
My son was humming the song, and I couldn't help laughing!
How can one be so happy at this moment!
