A great success

Mum has been enthusiastically making steamed bread of maize and wheat flour for several times recently. We gleaned many ears of corn in the plot behind our backyard last fall. Mum used to give them to elder brother for feeding his chickens. This time she decided to have the corn ground into flour as food. Long before, she had been good at making the bread. But now her works seemed quite commonplace. Especially the other day, she deeply regretted for making the worst bread in her life, which was shrunken and hard. The dough had been overheated on the kang that it couldn't rise again. This morning as soon as I entered the house I smelled the delicious odor of new bread. Both mum and I were very glad to see the swelling yellow bread fresh from the steamer this time.

Reply sunnyv 2014-1-22 16:25: Those moist buns in their steaming baskets are so irresistible, especially in the cold snowy winters. My kind elderly neighbor, noticing that I am a batchelor, made some very tasty fried radish cakes, yellow soft cakes, glutinous rice pudding for me for the Spring festival holidays because all the food shops and restaurants would be closed soon for the holidays. In return, I gave her a tin of Denmark butter Cookies. Everyone happy.
