Ning Dalang smiled and listened to everything she said. In the past few days, he had seen her wash and rub the wheat flour and corn flour. The others more or less had concerns, but Ning Dalang was the only one who would follow Xiaoxiao's instructions. He would grind them if she asked him to. He would dry them if she asked him to dry them. He would eat them all when she asked him to taste them until his stomach was round.
The hardest step for Xiaoxiao to make prawn dumplings was the skin. This was because the skin of prawn dumplings was different from ordinary dumpling skins. They could not be made directly with coarsely processed flour. Instead, they needed wheat starch and cornstarch.
Although there were a lot of ingredients in this era, the method of eating was still in rough processing. She used more than two days to grind the wheat flour and corn flour a second time, wash and soak them, separate the flour, dry them, and so on to make wheat starch and cornstarch.
