I am bound to the God of Cooking system, and I am invincible in Zongmen

candy? !

Ye Chenxing recalled the colorful candies fired from the candy cannon.

Fudge, chocolate, jelly, macaron, marshmallow, coconut candy, milk candy...

Children make choices, adults do.

Ye Chenxing remembered that when he was a child, his favorite food was chocolate.

The rich aroma melts in the mouth, sweet but not greasy, which makes him have endless aftertastes.

Recalling the deliciousness of chocolate, Ye Chenxing wanted to try making chocolate first.

He spent a few hundred more experience points to buy the method of making chocolate from the system.

To make chocolate, three ingredients are needed: cocoa powder, sugar, and cocoa butter.

Both cocoa powder and cocoa butter are obtained from cocoa beans on the cocoa tree.

Ye Chenxing thought to himself, wondering if there are cocoa trees or plants similar to cocoa trees in Lingzhi Peak.

If we talk about Lingzhi, it must be the master of Lingzhi Peak, Peak Master Yan.

Ye Chenxing then decided to visit Peak Lord Yan to see if he knew about cocoa trees.

The two of them are so familiar, Ye Chenxing is not polite.

"Master Yanfeng, I want to ask you this time, have you ever seen this plant called cocoa tree?"

Ye Chenxing told Peak Master Yan that he wanted to make chocolate and needed to find cocoa trees.

Master Yan Feng asked curiously when he saw his sincere attitude.

"Chocolate? Cocoa?

Such a strange name.

I have never heard of the plant Ye Fengzhu mentioned, what kind of plant is this? "

Ye Chenxing described the shape of the cocoa tree, leaves, flowers, fruits and the characteristics of cocoa beans in detail to Master Yan.

The peak master listened with gusto, thought for a moment, and said.

"I have never heard of the tree you mentioned, but there are many exotic flowers and plants in my Lingzhi Peak, and there may be something you need. Come with me."

After that, he took Ye Chenxing to the depths of Lingzhi Peak.

The two walked along the mountain road, and saw that the roadside was full of various plants.

Finally, they came to the entrance of a secret realm of Lingzhi Peak.

Follow Master Yan into the secret territory, there is an open grassland with a tall tree in the middle of the grassland.

This tree is very similar to the cocoa tree Ye Chenxing described, but it is slightly different.Its trunk is thicker, its branches are denser, its leaves are greener, its flowers are more colorful, and its fruits are more abundant.Each berry is the size of a fist, has a dark purple appearance, and exudes an alluring aroma.

Peak Lord Yan pointed to the tree and said to Ye Chenxing.

"This is one of the most precious spiritual plants in my Lingzhi Peak - the Amethyst Fruit Tree.

There is also a bean wrapped in a hard shell in the fruit, which is also a superb spiritual thing.

I think this is what you call cocoa beans. "

Ye Chenxing was overjoyed when he heard the words, and quickly thanked Peak Lord Yan.

"Excuse me, can Peak Master Yan give me some amethyst fruit?"

Peak Lord Yan laughed.

"They are all part of Brahma Sect. These amethyst fruits are not rare to me, you can take as many as you want."

That being said, what Peak Lord Yan thought was, if I hadn't made this amethyst fruit more precious.

How can I show my sincerity!

"You're welcome. It's just that if you want to make chocolate, besides the amethyst beans, you need two other materials, right?"

Ye Chenxing nodded and said, "Yes. Sugar and cocoa butter are also needed. Sugar is easy to find. I usually use it in the kitchen. As for cocoa butter..."

He changed his words.

"Cocoa butter is a kind of fat extracted from amethyst beans. It has strong flexibility and activity, can increase the aroma and taste of chocolate, and can also prolong the shelf life of chocolate."

Master Yan said: "However, the extraction method of cocoa butter is not simple."

"Is there any difficulty in this cocoa butter extraction method?"

"You have to know that although the amethyst bean is a kind of spiritual creature, it also has its weaknesses.

What it is most afraid of is heat and sunlight.If it encounters high temperature or sunlight, it will lose its aura and vitality, and become dry and tasteless.Therefore, to extract cocoa butter, it must be carried out at low temperature and in a dark environment, and special methods must be used to maintain the integrity and freshness of amethyst beans. "

Ye Chenxing thought for a while and said.

"It's not difficult. Soak the amethyst beans in ice water.

Ice water can lower the temperature of the amethyst beans and also block the sunlight. "

As he spoke, he stretched out his palm, and a cloud of cold air condensed in his palm.The cold air condensed into ice, and there was a faint blue light in the ice.This is exactly the aura he absorbed from the Nine Heavens Xuanbing.He cast another ice spell, and a drop of water condensed in the air.The water droplets fell on the ice cube in his hand, and immediately formed a thin layer of ice.

Ye Chenxing showed the ice cube in his hand to Master Yan.

"Is this ice water enough to soak Amethyst beans?"

Peak Master Yan took the ice cube and observed it carefully, with surprise in his eyes.

"Peak Master Ye, it's amazing that you can condense such ice water."

Ye Chenxing smiled slightly.

"This is a kind of spiritual energy that I got by chance in the extremely cold place in Northern State.

The extremely cold place is the coldest place in the world, where the ice and snow do not melt all year round, and the cold air penetrates the bones.

After practicing there for a while, I felt the aura there and absorbed it into my body.From then on, I was able to use this aura to cast some ice spells. "

Peak Lord Yan heard this, and was secretly amazed in his heart.

What kind of genius and monster is this peak master Ye Chenxing!

He started his career as a cook, cultivated to a high level, and is also proficient in various other spiritual root spells.

"So that's the case. If that's the case, you should have no problem soaking the amethyst beans in this kind of ice water."

Ye Chenxing: Don't be envious, I have the system cheat.

"Then I'll take my leave first and go to make chocolate."

Peak Lord Yan nodded and said.

"Master Ye Feng, I have a heartfelt request. After the chocolate is made, can you give me a taste."

Ye Chenxing smiled.

"Peak Master Ye gave me amethyst fruit and amethyst beans so generously. Of course."

After finishing speaking, he took his leave and left, and returned to Cang Qiong Peak with the Purple Crystal Fruit.

Back at Cang Qiong Peak, Ye Chenxing came to the kitchen of the main courtyard of the peak.

He planned to extract cocoa powder and cocoa butter from amethyst beans first.

The key to the extraction was temperature control, so he used the ice-type spiritual power to cover the kitchen with a thin layer of frost, lowering the temperature to minus ten degrees.

Even with the ice-type spiritual body protection, he couldn't help shivering when it became so cold all of a sudden.

In order to make chocolate, he even admired himself for his hard work!

Pour the amethyst beans into the big iron pot that the god pot turned into, and roast it with a spiritual fire.

The amethyst beans in the pot made a crackling sound and emitted a strong aroma.

Ye Chenxing used a shovel to turn the amethyst beans in the pot from time to time to prevent them from burning.

After roasting and frying for half an hour, the amethyst beans in the pot turned dark brown, and the surface cracked, exposing the white kernels.

Ye Chenxing took the pot off the fire, sifted out the amethyst beans with a sieve, and put them into a large wooden trough.

He picked up a big hammer and pounded the amethyst beans vigorously, smashing them into fine powder.

During the pounding process, the fat in the amethyst beans oozes out and mixes with the crushed powder to form a viscous liquid, which is cocoa butter.Ye Chenxing wrapped the liquid in a cloth bag and hung it on a wooden stand to let the excess oil drip off.The dripping grease collects in a small basin, and what's left in the cloth bag is dry cocoa powder.
