As the temperature rose, Qiao Xin asked Mao Bai to take out a few firewood, turn to low heat and cook slowly, stirring while cooking to prevent sticking to the pot. After it boiled, Qiao Xin filled a small bowl and took it from the space. I took out a jar of quite precious rock sugar and added a small piece of it.
Now the entire space has been basically explored by Xiao Ling, and all the usable supplies have been searched out. There is only such a small can of sugar, one pound in it.
He handed it to Bai Ru and said, "Let it cool before drinking."
Lang Yu began to cling tightly to his mother again, oozing and coquettishly wanting to drink.
Bai Ru flicked his forehead, "If you see the steam coming out, burn your mouth."
Lang Yu let out a chirp and turned into a little baby wearing a silver-gray animal skin skirt. He stood up and hugged Bai Ru's legs, "It's not hot."
Bai Ru and the other three laughed so much that their stomachs ached at what he did. They usually couldn't become adults no matter how they changed, but for the sake of food, they changed as much as they wanted.
Bai Ru burst into tears laughing, "This snack foodie."
In order to increase the cooling speed, Bai Ru had to blow cool air and feed it to Lang Yu.
This was the first time Lang Yu drank something sweet since he was so old. His eyes widened instantly. He held the bowl in his little fleshy hands and refused to put it down. He drank tons and tons of it. After a while, less than half of the bowl went into his stomach. He licked his lips and stared at the bubbling soy milk in the pot, wanting to drink it.
Qiao Xin made three bowls without adding sugar, "Drink and see."
The soy milk without sugar does not affect the taste at all. It is mellow and sweet, as smooth as silk. It tastes no worse than horned deer milk. It has two different tastes.
"Yu, drink." Lang Yu saw that the adults were drinking, but he didn't have any. He grabbed Bai Ru and was very anxious.
Bai Ru blew on it and fed it to him.
Lang Yu took a sip with a confused look on his face, then took another sip and said, "It's not sweet."
"There's no sugar, so of course it's not sweet." Bai Ru touched his silver-grey hair, "Do you want more?"
Qiao Xin heard Bai Ru's words, "Is there candy in Black Rock City?"
Bai Ru nodded, "The sugar was brought from the south by traveling merchants. It is very precious. It would take at least a hundred slaves to exchange for your jar."
Qiao Xin touched her chin and suddenly became interested in this deal. A slave wanted ten ordinary animal skins, so a can of sugar could be exchanged for a thousand animal skins!
When it comes to making sugar, it doesn't actually have to be sugar cane or beet. Given the current conditions, she can definitely use malt.
Thinking of this, Qiao Xin waved her hand, poured another large bowl for Lang Yu, and added two pieces of sugar.
"Be happy!"
"Thanks, Xin."
Qiao Xin didn't favor one or the other, so she filled a large bucket, poured half a catty of sugar into it, and asked Mao Bai to give it to the cubs in the tribe.
Bai Ru took over from Mao Bai and sat in front of the stove watching the fire.
Lang Yu sat in her arms, drowsy from the fire.
Qiao Xin took out a piece of animal skin and handed it to her.
Bai Ru was not polite, took it and covered Lang Yu.
When Mao Bai came back, he was all smiles, "The cubs are so happy. One or two of them want to jump out and thank you."
Qiao Xin also laughed, "We can't let them come out. The spring rain will freeze us, so don't get sick from the cold."
Although they now have witches who understand medicine, some diseases cannot be cured with medicine.
Mao Bai: "Grandpa Inomori is stopping me!" The little cubs also knew that they were weak-skinned, and were afraid of knocking down Inomori, who was over a hundred years old. No matter how anxious they were, they did not go out past Inomori who was guarding the door.
Qiao Xin asked Mao Bai to stir, then took an empty basin and filled it with less than half of the water. She went into the cave, opened the clay pot of sour fruit stuffing, measured the amount, and scooped out some vinegar.
Mao Bai also made some sour soup with sour fruits. When eating pickled fish, you can put some in it, but his is not as clear as Qiao Xin's. "Have you filtered this?"
In the entire tribe, only Qiao Xin had cloth. When she filtered the bean dregs, she also used cloth. Mao Bai thought it was so at first glance.
Qiao Xin looked at Mao Bai, "Yes! After the sour fruit is fermented, I filter out the pomace so that it can be stored longer."
Qiao Xin pointed to the piece of white cloth used for filtration, which was cut from a tattered bed cover. "If you want to use it, just come over and borrow it."
"Thank you, why do you add sour soup to the soy milk?" Mao Bai stirred the soy milk.
"After filtering, I like to call it vinegar. Its function is to turn soy milk into tofu." Qiao Xin took over the iron pot and poured vinegar into it while stirring.
You can't pour too much vinegar at one time, you have to pour small amounts several times. Qiao Xin watched the changes in the soy milk in the pot. Once there was resistance on the spatula and the bean sprouts appeared, she immediately stopped adding the diluted vinegar water.
There is still half of the vinegar in the small pot, and the soy milk in the pot gradually solidifies into flocculent tofu pudding.
Witnessing the transformation of soy milk from water into solidified tofu pudding, Mao Bai and Bai Ru marveled at how magical it was.
Mao Bai: "Is this tofu?"
Qiao Xin found a shallow ivy basket and covered it with a layer of white cloth, "No, this is bean curd. Do you want to eat it? The taste is different from soy milk."
Qiao Xin didn't give them time to think about it, so she took out three bowls, mixed a spicy stew, sprinkled a handful of chopped green onions, one bowl for each person.
It's salty, tender and smooth. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed it was made from the same thing.
After Bai Ru took the last sip, she tightened her arms around Lang Yu and lowered her voice, "Don't tell Lang Yu that we didn't take him with us when we were eating Dou Hua. If he wakes up, he will probably make a scene."
Mao Bai suppressed a smile and nodded.
I saw Qiao Xin scooping out all the tofu curds in the pot and putting them into a green cane basket covered with white cloth. The full pot was filled with soy milk and tofu curds. Only half of the pot was left, and they were all put into the green cane basket. In the rattan basket, Qiao Xin folded the white cloth on the side and covered it.
He took a basin and filled it with water and pressed it on it. The water was squeezed out. "You can eat it after pressing it for one afternoon. You can come over and eat tofu in the evening."
"Why can vinegar turn soy milk into tofu curds?" Bairu also ate the tofu curds, but still couldn't figure out many things.
"The lactic acid bacteria in the vinegar will hydrolyze and precipitate the soy protein, causing the soy protein to gradually aggregate into a solid and form a floc..." Qiao Xin explained.
Bai Ru didn't understand. She looked at Mao Bai, who also looked confused and balanced.
Qiao Xin: "Anyway, it's the fermentation in the vinegar that solidifies the soy milk." The specific explanation is unclear.
Bai Ru didn't struggle with this question and continued to ask. There must be a question she could understand!
"Then why do you scoop out the bean curd and press it with something?"
"The purpose of pressing something with something is to squeeze out the moisture inside, so that the bean curd can solidify into blocks better to form tofu. If it is in a fixed utensil, the heavier it is, the thicker it will be solidified, and the taste of the stuff will be different. It’s different, like tofu skin, dried tofu is more solid than tofu.”
Bai Ru understood. This is probably why some tribes send young people to travel. This is probably the purpose of traveling.
Only by walking thousands of miles can you enrich your knowledge and increase your life experience.
Without leaving the White Fox Tribe, she would not have realized how rich and varied the world was.
