Now the old people in the countryside have experienced that famine era, and the frugality of food is beyond the understanding of young people now. Sometimes guests at home eat too much leftovers, so they don't throw them away directly, but let them dry in the sun and save them for later use.

So what's the use of these dry meals?

1: Used of food.

To tell the truth, although there are so many delicious foods in the streets and alleys of the city now, in fact, the birthplace of most delicious foods is the countryside.

Soak the sun-dried rice in water and then dry it to make fried rice. Personally, I feel that this kind of fried rice is not as delicious as fried rice made directly from fresh rice.

However, I like to fry rice directly with dry rice. The rice fried cake that tastes like this is especially crisp and delicious, and it is more delicious than crispy rice.

Some people will make tea with fried rice and other tea leaves. It can also be ground into powder and made into various gourmet snacks such as sesame sauce.

2: Used to make confused popsicles.

In the past, when studying, popsicles eaten in rural areas were dried with rice, ground into powder, mixed with water, sugar and cooked mung beans in proportion, then placed in molds and frozen in refrigerators.

This kind of soil popsicle used to sell well in the countryside. It seems that no one does this now, which is troublesome to make and expensive.

3: Used for feeding poultry.

In rural areas, every household will raise some chickens, ducks and other poultry. Rice that is not usually fed in time is prone to mildew, so it will be dried and preserved in the sun.

Every time you feed chickens and ducks, just soak the dry rice in water and you can feed it directly.

It is used as dry food for travel.

According to my grandfather, when he was young, he went to work in the county town and left a few days early. At that time, the traffic was underdeveloped, and all the roads were mountain roads and forest paths.

It takes about 5 days to walk to the county seat once. On the first day of eating at home, I will eat some steamed bread or something on the way. Starting from the third day, we will eat rice cakes. Soak the quilt in water and heat it on the fire, and you can eat it.

These rice cakes are easy to carry and keep. Take it for ten days and a half months, and it won't get moldy. Other dry food such as steamed bread won't last that long. ?
