The smoking of bacon and sausage is cumbersome,? In addition, there is only one biggest difficulty in making these bacon in ancient times-salt.

In the ancient earth materials that Du Changqiu saw, human beings did not have any systematic search for and edible salt records for a long time, and the earliest records about salt appeared? It is the record in "Shuowen": "Susha's Boil the sea for salt".

This time is more than 2000 BC, it can be traced back to the period of the Yellow Emperor, and more archaeological materials found in the coastal area can prove that in the Yangzhao period of ancient China, that is, from 5000 BC to 3000 BC, it was There are already tools for boiling salt.

In the long time evolution, from the initial boiling of sea salt, then the discovery of pool salt, to the emergence of well salt at the end of the Warring States Period, human beings have been looking for salt as a seasoning for a long time.

Not only is it long,? It is also very hard to cook salt.

However, orcs have not suffered from this kind of suffering. They retain a lot of animal instincts in their genes, and eating and finding salt are obviously a kind of animal instincts. Therefore, in the places where orcs choose to live, basically Accompanied by a source of salt.

That's right, the river valley tribes don't look at this poor and white, but they have their own salt caves.

What is even more shocking to the luck of these guys is that the tribe's salt cave is actually the kind of mine salt cave that is directly exposed to the outside.

You can’t see it from the outside, so you drill all the way inside the mud hole that looks like an ordinary cave, go in and walk around a few turns, the middle of the mountain suddenly becomes empty,? Then you can see it if you take a closer look. , the entire cave is filled with pale pink salt mines.

This ore-like salt is very beautiful, it can be eaten directly after being ground into granules, and in fact, mineral salt is also the cleanest table salt among all salts.

After all, mineral salt is formed after long-term evaporation of the sea, and then after 6 million years of geological extrusion and high temperature underground, it is finally formed. There are even data showing that mineral salt has an individual name, called "salt fossil.", It can be seen how precious it is.

What is even more enviable is that although most of the mineral salt is very precious, it also requires a lot of manpower to mine, but the orcs of the valley tribe are very lucky. The mineral salt they found is very rare. - that is, in the earthquake - mountain faults, thus directly exposed to the salt mine caves in the caves on the surface.

Finding salt is one of the instincts of orcs, so salt, which has plagued humans for many years, has evolved into one of the most important resources for various salt policies and taxes. In the world of orcs, there is no pressure at all.

This is also the biggest reason why Du Changqiu dared to assure the patriarch that he could solve the problem of meat storage.

If it was in the ancient times in the real historical records, when salt was cherished very much, Du Changqiu would not dare to think about bacon.

When we arrived at the salt cave, Du Changqiu picked up an ax and easily knocked off large chunks of salt, put them into the bamboo basket, and quickly filled most of the basket.

He picked up half a load of salt and went out.

The females over there are still working on yesterday's mountain of meat.

"Qiu, do you want my help?" Tuqiu heard Du Changqiu said that he wants bacon just now, saying that it is easy to preserve, the meat will not spoil, and it is very delicious.

Although he didn't know what bacon was, he had strong confidence in Du Changqiu. Seeing Du Changqiu pick out the salt, he immediately jumped over to help.

"Okay, you can crush the salt and put it in this iron bucket. I'll try to make sausages with cured meat." Du Changqiu didn't refuse, and immediately arranged.

He is also very much looking forward to making bacon and sausage as soon as possible. After all, Du Changqiu has never eaten this bacon himself, especially after reading the information that the bacon tastes very delicious, and it is very delicious when cooked with anything.

Thinking about the records again, since the summer time, after Suiren discovered fire, he discovered the deliciousness of bacon by the way. After the "Great Freeze Period", human beings were forced to lose their food inheritance in order to escape. Before all of them became dependent on nutrient solution, bacon was well preserved by humans...

Du Changqiu could tell almost immediately that this bacon was definitely a rare delicacy!

After all, his experience told him that as long as the food can be preserved by the ancestors for many years, it must be very delicious food.

The bacon is the simplest. Generally, it is directly air-dried or marinated and then smoked. Since I have never eaten it, Du Changqiu plans to cook both. Put the lid on the basket and set aside.

Wait for two days to marinate, then take it out to air-dry and smoke.

Sausages are not so simple. The first thing is to choose intestines—the large intestine is definitely not good. All sausages use animal small intestines, which are not only cleaner, but also moderate in size.

Most sausages are pork, as is bacon, but beef, mutton, cured chicken, and duck are also very common. It is best to choose fat and thin meat for bacon.

There are many kinds of prey from the beastman world, many of which are not even recorded. Du Changqiu tried his best to choose the meat with moderate fat and leanness, then cut the meat, stirred Xin Huzi, sprinkled a lot of ground salt, and then found out what he brought from Gun Gun early in the morning. The returned, custom-made ironware in the shape of a funnel, slowly separated the cleaned small intestine soaked in water, and then put it under the funnel.

The next step is simple, stuff the meat down from the big mouth on the top, then squeeze the meat into the intestines, stuff it tightly, use a small needle to poke air holes to prevent the sausage from bursting, and then use a small piece of thin beast Tie it up with a strap, and you're done.

Du Changqiu worked very slowly. Stuffing the sausage was very simple in the information. It is said that from ancient times to the present, the headed women of every family would do this job. The unique knowledge of households, the kind that will never be passed on to the outside world.

Du Changqiu originally thought that since it could be passed down to this level, basically every household would make its own smoked sausage, so it can be seen that this job is not difficult.

As soon as I got started, I realized that it took me a long time to put the intestines on so they wouldn’t slide away. After finally grasping the funnel and the small intestine with one hand, and starting to stuff the meat with the other hand, I realized that sitting up is still a good idea. It takes a little effort.

Forget it, you have to control your strength to squeeze the sausage. If you have more strength, you will explode it directly. If you have less strength, it will not move at all. In addition, you have to pierce the casing with a needle to deflate it. It is really troublesome.

But just for a while, after getting started, the speed has obviously increased. Du Changqiu has studied it, and the rabbit next to him can basically keep up. The two of them taught the females who came over after spreading the bacon evenly , Everyone stuffed the sausage together, and after filling a large portion, tied it with a thin leather belt cut from tanned soft animal hide.

After the pile of sausages was tied up, they hung all the bacon and sausages in the shed next to the livestock shed. This was a place reserved long ago, and the crossbars on it were all fixed well according to Du Changqiu's requirements. , Du Changqiu took everyone to hang up the meat and sausages, and then walked down the wooden ladder, and Rabbit Hill came holding a torch.

Du Changqiu immediately took it over, lit the torch on the pile of firewood, and saw that the firewood was burning, then immediately picked up the green and white beech branches that had been put away a long time ago and directly covered the fire. These green leaves It was densely covered, and the fire was quickly smothered, and a thick color rose, rushing straight to the sausages and bacon hanging on it.

This is the process of bacon.

Hanging here for half a month, these fresh meat and sausages will become slightly golden in color, delicious in taste, and if stored properly, they will not go bad for more than half a year.

It's just that during the smoking process, the fire must not be turned off, otherwise the meat will stink with insects.

Not only sausages and bacon are smoked in this way, but ingredients such as cured chicken and duck can be salted and then smoked.

The meat looks like a lot, but it’s actually not much to hang. Fortunately, there are still more than ten days before the middle of winter. If the orcs keep hunting like this and store it day by day, it will definitely become very impressive.

In the next ten days or so, apart from Leopard Stone, he went to the Black Iron Tribe with Rabbit Hill, who learned how to smoke meat, and handed over the method of storing pickled food to Gun Gun, and repeatedly emphasized that "Qiu said this thing is very good. Eat, stewed bamboo shoots in winter is more delicious than any food you have ever eaten!”, causing the Gunners to fall into a frenzy of bacon, and Du Changqiu and his clan did not do anything else, repeating it almost every day Hunting, curing bacon, cutting barnyard grass... This series of storage.

It lasted for half a month, and the cold wind had shortened the time for the females to be outside. Du Changqiu and the females raced against time to harvest a whole warehouse of peanuts.

The peanuts are almost dried in the sun and put into the warehouse.

The day before the orcs were very happy to return with a full load of prey. That night, the cold wind suddenly blew wildly, and the sky was gloomy. Everyone couldn't stay in the square any longer. They all shivered and hurriedly washed their hands and feet, and quickly hid in the square. in the house.

At night, the stove was burning vigorously, and the kang quickly warmed the whole house. The doors and windows were closed so that the orcs didn't notice, and the females and cubs slept very soundly.

The next day, Tuqiu, who didn't realize it, opened his eyes and found that the outside was very bright. He smiled unpreparedly and said, "Why is the sun so bright today...Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

There was an unexpected scream from behind.

"Why is it so cold?!"

"Why is the wind so strong?!"

……

Almost at the same time as Rabbit Hill was screaming, the females were all woken up by the cold wind, each stood up trembling in a daze, and all looked outside in surprise.

Rabbit Hill didn't notice them, because he was stunned to see that there was nothing but white outside the window.

In mid-October, when it was still autumn in the past, overnight, the whole world outside was covered with snow.

Winter came so unexpectedly.

The author has something to say: It’s finally winter!
