prehistoric chef

It was a hot day in June, Gao Ming wore only a pair of shorts, and hung a piece of wet leather around his neck, wiped his face, squinted his eyes at the scorching sun, and said, "It's going to be so hot today. "

"Brother Ming, are you hot again?" Landa was covered in water beads, fanning the wind with one hand, and said, "It's not too hot, it will be hotter in a few days."

"It's still hot—" Gao Ming drooped his eyelids. He was the most afraid of heat when he was fat in modern times. Now the weather here, the water in the river is warm. After swimming back and forth in the water, it will be hot again soon. no.

Seeing Gao Ming's wrinkled face, Xiao He said relievedly, "Actually, it's not very hot, it's very cool inside the cave."

That's right, now it's hot from noon to afternoon, and it's cool at night, even in the middle of the day, it's cool in the cave.Gao Ming turned his head and asked: "If it's still hot in a while, we won't come out at noon, and the time will be changed." Do more work and hunt in the evening.

Together, the three of them arrived at the entrance of the cave while talking.One of Bujialinzi mills wheat and the other is Yanghuzi. This is their last batch of wheat to be husked. On the ground next to the stone mill, Sado and Dashi turn the stone mill, and the other fills the top hole of the stone mill with wheat. , a wooden bucket is attached to the bottom of the slot, and it is already half full. When it is full, it will be poured into the big clay tank in the cave.

Gao Ming glanced into the wooden barrel, the wheat flour is not as white as it is in modern times, and the texture of the yellowish yellow is not delicate, I don't know if it tastes strong or not.In order to save trouble, they have not started to grind the flour. They have been busy drying the wheat for husking a few days ago. Now the last batch of husking is almost ready, and now they are grinding together.

"This amount is enough for the few of us. How about I make hand-rolled noodles for everyone at noon?!" Gao Ming swallowed when he thought of the chewy and smooth noodles. Back then, the conditions were not enough, and he was eating bland barbecue all day long. He was almost suffering from meat anorexia. Now that he has flour, he has to serve a bowl of noodles first!

"Brother Xiao Ming, are the noodles delicious?" Landa stared at them with bright eyes, and Xiao He next to him licked his mouth, and added, "Brother Xiao Ming, I will help you."

"Okay!" Gao Ming rubbed his chin, chuckled, and said, "I don't know if I can eat the sauerkraut I accumulated a few days ago." Yes, wild vegetables, I don’t know if the jar has not been touched these days!

Qi's legs and feet have been swollen a lot lately, and the sun is getting brighter at noon. At the moment, she is taking a nap in the small cave. The three of them entered the cave lightly. Export water, this should be edible.

"Xiaohe Xicai Landa boils bone soup, I'll knead the noodles." Gao Ming hurried out of the hole with a large pottery basin, the wooden bucket was almost full, Gao Ming poured the flour from the wooden bucket into the big basin, Carefully, he returned to the cave with the basin in his hand. He was afraid that he would not be able to knead the noodles with salt water.

Xiao Hecai was ready, Gao Ming put the kneaded dough on a basin, Xiaohe saw him, and asked curiously, "Why do you need to use a basin to cover the dough?"

"Let him wake up for a while." Gao Ming simply said: "It will taste better after a while." Holding the bowl in one hand, he lifted the lid of the altar, picked up a bowl of sauerkraut, put it on the chopping board and chopped it, and it will be ready later The toppings are poured directly on the noodles when they are eaten, and the mouth is watering just thinking about it.

The soup was still boiling on the stove, and Xiaohe Landa was doing nothing to stay beside Gao Ming and watched Gao Ming rolling the noodles with admiration in his eyes.This rolling pin was made a few days ago. Their chopping board is not big and there are many people. Gao Ming plans to roll it in two times.

Gao Ming rolled the rolling pin with both hands, and a round dough came out after a while. The flour here was yellowish, and the rolled out dough was also yellow.Xiaohe Landa admired it so much, he knew it was definitely delicious again when he saw this trick, and the two of them were almost drooling.

Rhubarb smelled the smell of bones and stared at the pot eagerly by the side of the road. Gao Ming took the pot down, picked up a bone with his chopsticks and threw it to Rhubarb's mouth, saying, "Good boy! Go play somewhere else." Rhubarb wagged his tail, He lowered his head and ran out of the hole with a bone in his mouth. This guy likes to bask in the sun in the shade outside.

"Landa set up the frying pan!" Gao Ming gave it enough, Landa set up the wok with half a spoonful of lard and put it in the pan. When the oil was [-]% to [-]% hot, Xiaohe held the ingredient bowl and handed it over. There was garlic and chili in it. A bowl full of diced bacon and diced bamboo shoots was poured into the pot, with a sizzling sound, the aroma came out all at once, and Qi, who was sleeping, was also fragrant.

Landa controlled the heat, Gao Ming stir-fried it twice, poured the sauerkraut into the stir-fry, added the sauerkraut soup into the pot, and started to stew.

"Xiao Ming, this smells delicious." Qi looked at the pot curiously and asked, "What are you eating today?"

"Hand-rolled noodles are made from ground wheat flour." The pot was gurgling, Gao Ming lifted the lid of the pot and stir-fried it a couple of times, then started the pot. "Add bone broth to another small deep pot."

The toppings for the noodles are ready, and the soup starts to boil after a while on the stove. Gao Ming has already cut the noodles evenly, with the width of a little finger. The pot is open.

Xiao He sniffed the scent, moved his nose, got up and ran towards the entrance of the cave, saying: "Brother Xiaoming made something delicious, Brother Dashi!"

This is tipping off!The noodles in the pot have been cooked. Gao Ming likes a slightly harder texture, which is delicious. After taking three bowls of noodles from a pot, Lan Daqi took over and put them on the table. Fragrant.

Those who worked outside the cave had gone to the river to wash when Gao Ming smelled the fragrance when he was making toppings, and the four of them just came back from washing when Xiao He went out.

"Just in time!" Gao Ming saw that a few people were not moving their bowls, and said with a smile: "I made enough, eat it quickly, otherwise the noodles will not taste good after a long time, so that Qi and Landa still have Xiaohe to eat, and the noodles in the pot will be eaten immediately." Just fine."

As soon as Gao Ming finished speaking, Landa blew on the pottery bowl like a puppy, took a sip of the soup, put his mouth to Sado's lips, and said, "It's sour and delicious!"

Saduo couldn't help Landa bowed his head and took a sip, his eyes lit up immediately, Landa looked terrified, and said, "It's delicious!"

Here, Gao Ming’s second pot of noodles has been cooked. This time, he ordered more, four bowls at a time. He likes this kind of noodles with toppings with less noodles and more toppings. Serve more.

"Brother Ming, these noodles are delicious! They are even better than meat!" Landa took a mouthful of the noodles, smelling the aroma, and fed Sado with chopsticks, "Isn't it delicious!"

Gao Ming poured toppings on Bujialinzi Dashi Sado and the others. Seeing Landa's appearance, he couldn't help but joked, "Compared to chestnut stewed Gu Gu?"

"This is delicious!" Landa said without raising her head.

Bujia picked up the noodles with chopsticks and brought them to Gao Ming's mouth, and Gao Ming took a sip of it without hesitation, breathing hot, it was really beautiful.I am used to eating big fish and meat, and now eating a bowl of hot and sour noodles is simply delicious!

"You eat first, I'll get the noodles!" One portion of the dough had already been cut, Gao Ming quickly cut the other rolled out, "Who wants more?"

Needless to say, they were not full. Half a bucket of flour was enough for eight people to eat, and there was not a single drop of soup toppings left. Landa even sat on a stool and rubbed her stomach, and said, "Brother Xiaoming, the noodles are thin. Delicious and filling."

Gao Ming understood Landa's meaning, it was really delicious, although the color was not good, but it still had some strength, he had a big appetite, he thought about another bowl, and wanted to continue eating when his stomach was full.

"I ate a bit too much today, next time I will make pancakes." Talking about pancakes, Gao Ming remembered that he had to dig out bird eggs last time, and egg-filled pancakes should not be too delicious! "Have any of you ever seen Gu Gu's eggs?"

"Brother Xiao Ming is delicious again?" Landa, who had eaten too much, immediately regained his energy when he heard about eating.

Gao Ming nodded, deliberately seducing Landa and said, "Roll the flour into a cake, break up Gu Gu's eggs and pour it in, and fry it until golden brown on both sides. It's crunchy and fragrant after one bite..."

Landa Xiaohe licked his lower lip, and Landa even patted his chest to promise: "Next time I hit Cuckoo, I will definitely get the egg back!"

A meal of sauerkraut noodles conquered everyone's stomachs, and he was even more diligent about grinding flour. During this time, Gao Ming simply changed his ways and changed all kinds of pasta until the advent of July.

The three large pottery vats in the cave were full of flour. After more than a month of milling and shelling, the people in the cave were quite dark. This is a lot of muttering.

Since the last time I found Bai Yingying, I haven’t seen it since the cave is calm and calm. Rhubarb has gained a lot of weight. Qi’s belly is very big, and she looks like she’s about to give birth. Ke Qi herself said that it’s still early, but she rarely goes up the mountain now. Yes, they are basically activities outside the entrance of the cave.

Gao Ming was sitting by the river bored, and beside him, Lan Da Xiaohe imitated his behavior, his feet soaked in the cold water was very comfortable.Xiaohe kicked the water with his feet swinging, Landa propped his chin in a daze, Gao Ming boredly looked at the red clouds in the sky, and sighed slowly, this is too boring!

"What were you doing at this time in the past?" You don't have to worry about eating flour, bacon, fresh meat, or clothes. In this midsummer, as long as you carry bamboo baskets into the mountains, you will always get something, and you don't have to worry about food and clothing. Gao Ming is really bored, as expected, one cannot be idle.

Xiao He tilted his head and thought for a long time, and suddenly found that the memory of the past seemed very far away, and he couldn't remember what he was doing at this time before, it seemed to be... "Should I hunt?!"

Landa nodded and said affirmatively: "Every morning, I hunt until noon, and I have a meal at noon, and I hunt or pick fruits in the afternoon." All the days are the same, and there is nothing to say about hunting every day.

"It's really boring!" Gao Ming kicked his feet, and suddenly remembered his backgammon. Although it is simple, it can really pass the time, and said: "Let's go kill a game of backgammon. It would be great if it can be paired with a plate of iced watermelon." Xia Tian It's the season to eat watermelon, so I don't know if this place exists, but I've never seen it anyway.

"Watermelon?!" Landa has a scanning function for food, and Gao Ming's backgammon and so on are all overwhelmed, and only the word watermelon is in his mind. "What is this? Is it delicious?"

"It's delicious. It's green on the outside. When you smash it open, it's red inside. It's full of water and seeds. It's sweet to the heart when you bite it down." Gao Ming picked up the kettle and took a sip of it, imagining the taste of watermelon juice in a mouthful. ,not bad.

Xiao He opened his eyes slightly, and said, "Isn't this the red fruit!"

"Red fruit?!" Gao Ming became interested, and asked, "Have you ever eaten Xiaohe? How big is it?"

Xiao He gestured for the size, it was as big as a small ball, and said: "We used to have it in the place where we lived, and it was ripe when the weather was hot, and when you smashed the water, it was red, sweet and delicious."

Landa was drooling. He had never heard of it or eaten it. Seeing Gao Ming nodding, he knew that the red fruit and watermelon should be the same thing.

Buga and Dashi bathed in the river and went ashore.Bujia said: "There are wild fruits in the mountains. If you want to eat them, let's look for them."

Gao Ming put on straw sandals, looked at half of the sun above the sea, "I'll look for it tomorrow, and go back to cook." It's been hot recently, people in the cave don't have a good appetite, and dinner usually consists of cooking soup or noodles.
