“smells good!”
“Let me take a look at what goodies Father made!”
Two little heads peeked out from the kitchen. They looked up curiously at the pile of bamboo steamers that had steam escaping from them.
The fragrance of the dumplings wafted over together with the steam.
Mag turned to look at the two little fellows with a smile, and said, “Have the two of you washed up? If you haven’t, go up and wash up first, and you’ll be able to have piping hot soup dumplings when you come down.”
“Father, what are soup dumplings?” Amy asked curiously without moving.
“You’ll find out later.” Mag kept it mysterious.
“Alright.” Amy nodded and turned to go upstairs to wash up.
Not long later, the two fellows came downstairs.
Mag had already switched the fire off. After a while, he brought the three bamboo steamers with dumplings out of the kitchen.
Mag opened the lid of the bamboo steamers as the two little fellows watched intently.
The three soup dumplings took up almost all the space in the bamboo steamer.
The thin bamboo skin was almost translucent. It looked very cute, and it was filled with soup, yet it kept its full, round shape. The folds were even and beautiful, and there was a spot of crab roe in the middle of the bamboo steamer, looking like a blossoming chrysanthemum flower.
“Wow, it’s pretty.” Amy’s eyes lit up. She could not resist the urge to poke the soup dumpling.
The dumpling sank in a little, but bounced right back up and shook a little, as though it was alive.
“It’s cute.” Amy’s eyes lit up.
“The ones with a yellow dot on the folds are the crab roe soup dumplings, and those without the yellow dot are the normal soup dumplings. Try and see which ones you like.”
Mag picked up a soup dumpling with a pair of chopsticks. The flat soup dumpling immediately became round like a lantern. The soup filled the dumpling up, but it did not burst.
“This just came out of the steamer, and it’s very hot inside. Be careful when eating. Have it in small bites.” Mag placed a crab roe soup dumpling on each of the two children’s plates as he reminded them.
“”Mm-hmm.”
The two little fellows nodded. However, their attention was all caught by the soup dumplings, and Mag did not know if they actually heard him.
“Boing, boing, boing.” Amy poked her soup dumpling with her chopsticks, and watched it wobble on her plate happily.
Meanwhile, Annie observed the soup dumpling curiously left and right, as though she wanted to see through it.
Mag also picked a crab roe soup dumpling for himself quickly and gently. Before the soup dumpling even noticed, it was picked up gently by its fold, and was quickly placed on Mag’s plate.
It looked perfect from every angle.
On top of that, the dumpling was in its best condition. Throughout the steaming process, the soup did not leak, and it did not lose its shape.
There was a technique to eating the soup dumpling. One would have to bite gently on the dumpling skin to break it, and then suck out all the soup slowly before eating the skin and filling.
“Watch closely at how I eat it,” Mag told the two little fellows, and bit gently on the dumpling skin.
Ssss!
Hot!
The soup inside the soup dumpling that was just served was still boiling hot.
That bite almost made Mag give up on this dumpling that was just by his mouth.
Behind that thin chewy dumpling skin was soup, and the fresh soup would flow right into one’s mouth with a small bite.
The crab roe was extremely fragrant, and the soup was very fresh. Just a small mouthful of soup would call for more.
As for the scald, it was completely suppressed by the deliciousness.
‘When the soup was almost gone, Mag put whatever was left of the dumpling in his mouth.
The skin was chewy, and the meat filling that was submerged in the soup was fatty but not greasy and very smooth. On top of that, the crab meat and crab roe were really delicious.
“This is probably the peak of the crab roe soup dumpling.” Mag could not help but praise himself. It was indeed the soup dumpling that he had failed countless times at making.
The two fellows watched Mag finish a soup dumpling with their eyes wide open.
Gulp.
The two of them swallowed their saliva at the same time.
“Lwant to give it a try too.” Amy went up and bit into the soup dumpling. After that, she put her mouth to the dumpling, and took small sips of the soup.
Amy’s beautiful eyebrows rose and her eyes sparkled, as though she found no-man’s land.
After finishing the soup, Amy looked up, and exclaimed, “This is fantastic! The crab meat soup is fabulous!”
After saying that, Amy picked up the rest of the dumpling with her two hands. The dumpling was too big for this little fellow, and she was unable to eat it in one bite like Mag, so she nibbled on the dumpling in her hands with a blissful smile.
Annie could not sit still seeing how delicious the two made the soup dumpling look. She also bit into the dumpling, and sucked out the soup as a smile appeared on her face.
The soup was rich and not greasy. The filling was fresh and tender, and the skin was chewy. Such an exquisite and unique dish was really marvelous.
Besides, the soup dumpling’s cute appearance and the unique eating method made Annie want to draw them in her picture book.
After finishing the three soup dumplings, Mag was about full, and Annie had also placed her chopsticks down.
But Amy did not have enough. She picked her plate up and licked it clean. After that, she looked at Mag expectantly, and asked, “Are there more? I think I can have another three.”
“knew three wouldn’t be enough for you. There are three more in the kitchen.” Mag stood up with a smile, and headed to the kitchen to take another steamer of soup dumplings.
“Father is the best!” Amy raised her two little hands happily, and reached out to put a soup dumpling on her plate. After that, she continued eating.
“Is Little Amy’s mission today to learn the smashed cucumber salad?” Mag asked as he took a sip of warm milk.
“Yeah,” Amy mumbled. The system said that today was the last day, and she had to master the smashed cucumber salad.
However
How did Father know?
Amy paused and looked at Mag.
“You’ve only learned it halfway yesterday, of course you’ll have to learn the remaining half today,” Mag said with a smile.
“Mm-hm, mm-hm.” Amy nodded and continued eating her dumpling.
“aren’t Big Sister Annie’s drawings very beautiful?” Mag asked again.
“Mm-hm. They’re gorgeous, even better than those we bought,” Amy said as she nodded her little head.
“In that case, should we get them printed out so that more people can enjoy the beautiful drawings too?” Mag asked with a smile.
“Yes. That would bring more happiness to more people.” Amy nodded in agreement.
Sighing, Mag said, “But all the printing factories in Rodu can only print in black and white. If we were to get Annie to draw the same things every day, it would be tiring and a waste of a talent. It would be great if we actually had a printing machine that could print out many colors.”
“Yeah, if we have a machine like that, we can print the picture book out ourselves,” Amy agreed.
“Don’t you have a wishing well, Little Amy? Why don’t you make a wish for a fully automated printing machine. If such a small wish can’t even be fulfilled, we should just fill the well up.” Mag took a sip of milk, and said, “It must be a fake wishing well.”
