Grandaunt Yang quickly held Doctor Yangs hand and said, “l can’t let you do all the work. You finally returned after all these years, so you should rest. Sit on the heated platform and rest. Everyone, please have a seat. I’ll get you some water.”
“Don’t worry, Madam Yang,” Su Binglan said, “l can handle all the cooking. I do it all the time at home.’
Grandaunt Yang could only listen to Su Binglan and let her cook. She wanted to know how Su Binglan would use the tomatoes and wondered if they would taste good.
Fortunately, Su Binglan had bought plenty of eggs just now. She looked around and counted eight people to cook for. The family had a big pot for her to use. “Madam Yang, please bring me a big basin.”
“All right.” Grandaunt Yang moved quickly.
Su Binglan took out more than ten eggs and beat them in the basin. Grandaunt Yang was stunned when she saw that many eggs.
Su Binglan called her brother after cracking the eggs. “Wenxiu, help me wash the tomatoes.’
“Right away, Sister.” Su Wenxiu was excited. He had never seen tomatoes before. Since his sister said they were good, he believed her and looked forward to dinner.
The group had been in a hurry to reach the village over the past few days. They had eaten most of their canned and preserved foods. They were happy to eat cooked food soon.
Usually, the Su family would not need Su Wenxiu’s help in the kitchen.
Instead, they would allow him to continue studying and researching herbs in peace. Still, he sometimes helped them cook. Therefore, he was familiar with helping his sister.
He washed the tomatoes and placed them in the basin. Su Binglan looked at them and said, “That’s not enough. Wash and add more to the basin.”
Su Binglan glanced at the family and thought they needed more nutrition. The eggs could replenish protein, while the tomatoes would replenish the nutritional value of fruits and vegetables. They would also supplement the family with vitamins.
Vegetable scrambled eggs tasted average, but tomato scrambled eggs were uniquely different from other dishes. Su Binglan smiled as she imagined what dinner would be like.
“Okay, Sister.” Su Wenxiu appeared even more obedient to his sister.
Grandaunt Yang hurried over to help, saying, “Let me help, young man.”
Doctor Yang and her wife also rushed to help. Everyone wanted to help, but they did not know what Su Binglan wanted to do. Hence, they did not know where to start.
After watching Su Wenxiu prepare the tomatoes, the family wanted to join in.
Su Wenxiu looked at the tomatoes and asked, “Sister, how do we cut these?”
He thought these things were fruits but had never considered cooking them. Su Binglan had never cooked with fruits before, so he did not know how to cut the tomatoes.
‘Should I cut them like potatoes? Do I shred them?’
“You can leave them there first. I’ll show you how to cut them later.” After stirring everything together, Su Binglan picked up a knife and cut the tomatoes. Her knife skills shocked everyone present.
Doctor Yang was in awe. It was no wonder Su Wenxiu often spoke highly of his sister. He always mentioned how delicious his sister’s cooking was.
Doctor Yang had only heard about it, but after watching Su Binglan work in the kitchen, she believed Su Wenxiu’s claims.
‘Miss Su’s cooking must be delicious. It’s evident now that I can watch her cook. I don’t even know how to cook and only know how to fiddle with medicinal herbs. Fortunately, my husband does most of the cooking.
After Su Binglan cut the tomatoes, Su Wenxiu asked, “Sister, are you going to make tomato scrambled eggs with these?”
Su Binglan smiled and said, “You’ll know when you see what I’ll do next.”
She then turned to Grandaunt Yang and said, “You can watch and learn, too, madam. Then, you can make tomato scrambled eggs for your family next time. It’s nutritious and good for your body.
“I’ll also make you tofu soup later. It’s fresh and delicious.” Su Binglan felt like cooking some more after seeing the fresh ingredients. She liked sharing her dishes with everyone.
Grandaunt Yang became emotional. She knew restaurants sold such dishes for a lot of money, yet Su Binglan allowed her to watch and learn. The old woman felt apologetic because she understood how hard it was to cook such dishes.
Su Binglan then took out garlic and ginger, saying, “These two are my seasonings. I’ll slice the garlic and grind the ginger. I’ll also mince the green onions and put them aside first. I’ll need them when stir-frying the tomatoes later.’
Su Binglan explained each step as everyone helped along. Doctor Yang was grateful to Su Binglan. The former knew Su Binglan trusted her to keep the recipe a secret.
However, Doctor Yang did not know how to cook and let her husband learn the recipe instead. Grandaunt Yang and Lady Liu also observed.
Su Binglan said, “We’ll need to add oil to the pot later.
Grandaunt Yang had already brought the firewood in for Su Binglan to use. The old woman had gathered the firewood from the mountain. There was an advantage to living in a beautiful mountainous area.
There were many lush jungles and sufficient firewood there. Several river banks were nearby, too. The family would not freeze during winter.
Su Wenxiu started the fire, and then Su Binglan placed the eggs into the pot after it reached a particular heat. She said, “Scramble the eggs with the tomatoes, but you must scramble the eggs first because they cook quickly.
That’s all you need to do before plating the dish.”
After scooping out the eggs, she added a little more oil to the pot and stir-fried the ginger, garlic, and tomatoes. She then added wine, salt, and sugar for taste.
Soon after, she added the tomatoes and continued to stir-fry the mixture. That way, the eggs would blend with the tomato, giving the eggs the tomato flavor. Then, she added a little soy sauce and some chopped green onions.
The fragrance wafted throughout the kitchen as she cooked. Grandaunt Yang and her family stared at the tomato-scrambled eggs in awe. Although they had made vegetable scrambled eggs, they did not smell as good as this.
They were even reluctant to use too many eggs. They typically used only one egg but more vegetables..
