As soon as I was reborn, my fiancé came to propose marriage!

After another four or five days, the wheat placed in the bamboo sieve in the kitchen grew tall green sprouts.

Cui Yunzhu called Xiao Zheng in and together they pulled out the malt leaves.

Because the malt is connected into one piece, you need to tear it apart first and then wash it with water.

Then use a knife to chop them into pieces, then take out the glutinous rice that has been soaked for a day in advance, mix the cut malt with the glutinous rice and add a small amount of water.

Let it rest overnight before starting to make maltose.

Here comes the most critical step.

The next day, after the glutinous rice and malt were mixed together to produce juice, the two of them took the fine cotton cloth and placed it on a large vat.

Cui Yunzhu is responsible for scooping the mixture of malt and glutinous rice onto the cotton cloth until a certain amount is added.

After washing her hands, Xiao Zheng wrapped the cotton cloth into a ball and squeezed it hard to squeeze out the juice, which she collected in the large vat below.

The two of them repeated this process for a long time and finally squeezed out juice from all the mixture in the kitchen.

Then all that’s left is to turn on the fire and simmer, stirring constantly during the simmering process.

After boiling for nearly two hours, the maltose finally took shape.

The room was filled with sweet fragrance, and Yaoyao, who was so greedy, couldn't help but stand on tiptoe to peek into the pot.

Cui Yunzhu took out the small wooden sticks that she had prepared in advance, put two small wooden sticks together and stirred them in the pot, and the malt sugar was successfully hung on the wooden sticks.

Then separate the sticks, hold one in each hand, and start spinning.

The maltose begins to turn white and stringy until it solidifies slightly.

She stirred three and handed one to Yaoyao first.

The little girl couldn't wait to lick it, and immediately clapped her hands happily, "Auntie, it's so sweet!"

"If Yaoyao likes it, I'll leave some for you and we can eat it at home too!"

It seems that the mixture of malt and glutinous rice can actually be used to make a pot of sugar, and it is not in grains like white sugar.

It looks like a liquid like honey, but it is quite different from honey. It is even more viscous than honey.

After stirring it with a stick, it actually took shape.

Xiao Zheng exclaimed it was amazing!

She put the maltose into her mouth, and her whole mouth felt sweet. She had never eaten such delicious candy since she was a child!

"Sister-in-law, this candy will definitely sell well!"

She shouted happily that her hard work over the past few days had paid off and all she had left was to go to town and sell them.

"Of course! The sugars in town now are all white sugar or honey produced by farmers. Maltose has never appeared before."

"And this kind of sugar can be eaten by stirring it, or it can be made into desserts. It has a lot of uses."

"The price is also affordable, so there is no need to worry about sales."

"I'll make you some sweets later, and then we'll go to town to sell candy this afternoon!"

Everyone was immersed in the joy of successfully making maltose.

Cui Yunzhu saw the tutorial on the Internet. She didn’t expect to succeed at her first try. She felt a little excited.

After finishing the maltose in her hand, she fried another pot of peanuts, and Xiao Zheng helped her to light the fire.

After frying, the two of them picked up the peanuts and placed them on a bamboo sieve to rub and peel them. After rolling them repeatedly in the bamboo sieve a few times, they gently blew at the peanuts.

The skin was blown away.

After peeling the peanuts, crush them with a wooden hammer. Don’t crush them too finely, some granular texture will be better.

After crushing, take out a small piece of maltose and heat it, then put the peanuts into the pan and stir-fry, stirring constantly with the maltose.

Before long, a small piece of maltose immediately covered all the peanuts in the pot.

Cui Yunzhu took it out while it was still hot, placed it on a wooden plate and pressed it into shape, and a large rectangular piece of peanut candy was made.

After it cooled down, she cut it into small pieces and gave them two to taste.

After tasting it, Xiao Zheng was full of praise.

How come my third brother’s wife has such a smart brain that she can come up with such a delicious recipe?

Recipes for making sugar are already hard to come by, and now there’s a way to make sweets, she’s really amazing!

Little Zheng looked at Cui Yunzhu with admiration. She was now full of hope for their business!

She hasn’t been to town yet, but she was amazed after just one bite. Is she still afraid that the bosses in town won’t snatch their malt sugar?

Cui Yunzhu put the remaining malt sugar into a ceramic jar and sealed it, and also wrapped the peanut candy with oil paper.

Excluding the small bowl of malt sugar left for Yaoyao, there were a total of eight full pottery jars.

It’s enough for the first time, but I’m afraid I’ll have to increase the production volume in the future.

Cui Yunzhu decided to send six pottery jars to Heshun Restaurant first, and take the remaining two to Yunji Pastry Shop to discuss cooperation with the owner.

I also brought some homemade peanut candy to show the boss the use of maltose.

Before the two went out, they soaked the wheat for the next use in advance.

..........

Chen Yan originally wanted to go with them, but was politely declined by Cui Yunzhu.

He and Chen Ping had just come down from the mountain and hadn't had their meal yet, so they decided not to go for the time being.

Stay at home and chop more firewood, as you will need it in a few days.

Yaoyao was left to the two of them.

As soon as they entered the kitchen, they saw the peanut candy left for them and started to eat it right away.

It is sweet, fragrant and crispy when you take a bite. The flavor of peanuts and maltose blend perfectly, leaving a lingering fragrance in your mouth.

Chen Yan has eaten too many delicious things during this period, but every time he tries something new, he can't help but marvel at his wife's cooking skills, it's really good!

The fragrance makes people dizzy!

After Chen Ping ate it, he was even more shocked.

Oh my god, he never knew peanuts could be made so delicious, and he didn’t know how the sugar was put in there, there was no trace of it on the surface.

From a distance it looks like a square piece of peanut, but who would have thought that this sugar could stick to the peanuts so tightly and so solidly!

One bite and you'll know it's well-made.

My wife told me that such a large piece of peanut candy was made with only a small piece of maltose.

My sister-in-law is such a genius.

"If this delicious food can't be sold, I, Chen Lao Er, will chop off my head and let you kick it like a ball!"

When he said this, everyone in the kitchen burst into laughter.

Chen Yan and the other person stayed at home for lunch.

Cui Yunzhu and Xiao Zheng carried seven or eight pottery jars and a large bag of peanut candy and went to the town.

If someone asked him about it on the way, he would just say that he was accompanying Xiao Zheng to visit her parents' home and would not mention anything else.

.........

After getting off the bus, they went to Heshun Restaurant immediately.

Shopkeeper Zhang was counting the bills at the counter when he looked up and saw a familiar figure. He hadn't seen Cui Yunzhu for a long time, and it took him a while to recognize her.

"Madam Cui, why bother you to come here in person?"

He spoke in surprise, quickly put down the abacus in his hand and walked out of the counter.

Business has been really good recently, and his hands are sore from using the abacus.

Now that he saw that the person who brought him fortune had arrived, he had to greet him enthusiastically.

Cui Yunzhu was not in a hurry. She slowly walked over and stood in front of the counter, looking at him with a smile, "Manager Zhang, I'm here to deliver the candy."

Normally, Manager Zhang would send his waiter to fetch the seasonings at the village entrance in the evening. Chen Yan was responsible for the delivery, and she only had to provide them.

But now that this is the first time that Maltose is cooperating, she has to come in person to show her sincerity.
