After entering the bird tribe, I want to farm
Chapter 140 Playing cards
The winter bamboo shoots buried in the ashes were boiling hot, and the fresh fragrance of the bamboo shoot shells was forced into the meat of the bamboo shoots.
Taking advantage of the fact that the winter bamboo shoots were still hot, Bai Wu and Nan Yao peeled off the thick bamboo shoots, and quickly got a whole piece of jade white bamboo shoots.
The bamboo shoots were steaming slightly, and a unique fragrance of bamboo shoots wafted out, filling the room.
Bai Wu swallowed, he hadn't eaten vegetables for several days, the taste of the bamboo shoots was so fragrant, it made his stomach growl louder than hunger.
Nan Yao put the peeled bamboo shoots in his hands on the black pottery plate, turned his head and said, "I'll peel the bamboo shoots, do you prepare the ingredients for frying the bamboo shoots?"
"This proposal won my heart!" Bai Wu stood up, threw the bamboo shoot shells into the stove, and ran happily, "I'm going to cut the bacon."
Their family has all kinds of cured meat, cured pig, cured sheep, cured cattle, cured deer...every kind is very fragrant.
Bai Wu went straight to the bacon.
The pigs are the domesticated wild boars fed by their family. They are all castrated boars. They usually eat wild vegetables, grain bran, wheat bran and aquatic plants, which are fat enough but delicious.
The bacon made from this kind of pig is dark red in color and yellow in fat. The whole piece of meat is very oily. If you eat it directly, you can taste the salty aroma of bacon brewed by the cold wind and sunshine. The flavor is stronger than that of fresh meat.
Bai Wu stood under the eaves, picked left and right, and chose a piece of fat and thin, good-quality bacon of the right size.
He took the bacon back, cleaned the impurities on the surface with warm water, and then changed the knife.
The bacon was harder than a wooden stick, and when he changed the knife, he used all his strength to cut it, but it was still very difficult to cut.
Nan Yao threw the last stack of bamboo shoot shells into the stove, stood up and took the knife from Bai Wu's hand, "I'll do it."
Bai Wu stood by and watched him use a knife to slice the tough bacon into even thin slices. The red and oil-yellow bacon was placed on a black pottery plate, like a blooming flower.
Each slice of these bacon is fat and thin, and it is just translucent when viewed in front of your eyes.Just looking at the appearance of the bacon, Bai Wu felt that if he didn't cook it properly, it would be a waste of this piece of meat.
Bai Wu looked at it for a while, then went outside to pick up two frozen garlic sprouts and came back, took another chopping board, and cut the side dishes.
The two stood side by side, the chopping board under their hands was rattling, and side dishes were neatly stacked on the black pottery plate, like flowers blooming on the black pottery plate.
Bai Wu put down the kitchen knife: "I'm done."
Nan Yao put it down almost at the same time, "I'm fine too."
The two looked at each other and smiled, Bai Wu pushed Nanyao, "Fire the fire for me, I'm ready to cook."
Nan Yao sat down under the stove and started a fire.
Bai Wu rolled up his sleeves, ready to stir-fry.
Bai Wu looked at the cleaned and smoldering wok, and made fried bacon for the first dish.
He put the bacon into the pot, stir-fried the fat inside, then put in the garlic white and dark brown mouth-bite puree, and after boiling, put in the simmered winter bamboo shoots and stir-fried until every piece of bamboo shoots was coated with fat and The aroma of bacon, and then add sauce and garlic leaves.
In winter, their windows were only opened a crack, and as the dishes in the pot sizzled, the rich and delicious smell lingered in the kitchen.
Bai Wu swallowed her saliva, "It smells so good."
The pot next to it is steaming in a steamer, and the rice steamed from this year's new rice is steaming inside, and the fragrant smell makes people more and more hungry.
Nan Yao stood up, leaned forward and took out a pair of chopsticks from the chopstick holder next to him, rinsed it, picked up a piece of bacon from the pot, and handed it to Baiwu's mouth, "Taste the saltiness."
"Huh—it's so hot!" Bai Wu snorted with the piece of bacon in his mouth, "It's delicious! Our pork is really delicious as bacon! You should try it too."
"I'll eat it if I taste it." Nan Yao handed the chopsticks to Bai Wu, took the spatula from his hand, and put the fried bamboo shoots and bacon in it.
Bai Wu took the opportunity to grab two more pieces, the front one was given to Nan Yao first, and the latter one was stuffed into his mouth, and he squinted his eyes to enjoy it slowly.
The two big wolves were the first to smell the aroma of fried bacon with winter bamboo shoots. They ran out of the room, flicked their tails, and arched their noses outside the kitchen door, making a "beep, beep, beep" sound.
They also used their claws to pull the wooden door until it rattled.
Nan Yao put the bacon and winter bamboo shoots in a black pottery pot, filling a big pot full.
While stealing the vegetables, Bai Wu turned around and shouted at the two big wolves, "Don't act like a spoiled child, you can eat it later."
"Aww!" The two big wolves were circling anxiously, they saw that Bai Wu was eating!
Bai Wu put down his chopsticks and prepared to stir-fry other dishes, "Go and ask Father and the others to come over, we are ready to eat!"
"Ow!"
Bai Wu had no choice but to pick up the bacon and throw it to the two big wolves, and waited for them to eat the meat before urging, "Hurry up and ask Father and the others to eat."
The two big wolves stretched out their pink tongues to lick their mouths, and went obediently.
It is cold in winter, and their family sometimes eats in the kitchen and sometimes in the room.
Today's food is very smokey, it is better to eat in the kitchen, otherwise it is easy to smoke the quilt.
Bai Wu quickly finished frying the remaining three dishes and brought them to the kitchen table.
Nan Yao stuffed the last handful of firewood into the stove and got up to help set the dishes.
Chuan pushed open the kitchen door and walked in, Kishi and Mo followed behind him.
Two big wolves squeezed in from under their feet, wagging their tails, circled around Baiwu, and acted coquettishly in their noses.
Bai Wu was almost tripped by two big wolves, and couldn't help laughing, "Go and bring in your rice bowls, I'll fill them up for you now."
The two big wolves didn't understand, An opened the kitchen door, pointed to their rice bowls, "Go grab that!"
Kishi pointed for a while, but there was really no way to communicate with the two big guys, so he had to take them to find two rice bowls in person.
The two big wolves thought it was time to eat, so after hopping on their front feet, they hopped on their back feet, hopping around the shore vigorously.
Kian picked up their rice bowls and stuffed them into their mouths.
The rice bowl in Nanfeng's mouth fell to the ground with a clang, Bai Xue reacted first, and ran to the kitchen with the rice bowl in her mouth, wagging her tail, Nanfeng hurriedly followed.
Bai Wu rubbed the heads of the two big wolves before feeding them food.
The food that their family feeds the two big wolves has always been very mixed, mainly starch, plus various meats, and they will mix the food well every time they feed.
It's the same this time.
The two big wolves especially appreciate their food and are currently adapting very well to their home.
Not only did the big wolves adapt very well, they were even raised to be chubby, especially in winter, when their thick snow-white hair exploded, making them look much bigger.
If it weren't for the innocuous expression on their faces and the smirk that always sticks out their tongues, they would look like majestic beasts.
They feed them bite by bite. As one of the main breeders, Bai Wu has a great sense of accomplishment.
It was the same today. After the two big wolves waited for the meal, they immediately went to the corner with their rice bowls in their mouths and started eating immediately.
From the look of devouring it, it can be seen that they are very satisfied with today's meal.
Bai Wu was also quite satisfied.
Bai Wu left food for the two little wolves, and another for the two little porpoises.
He left more food for the two porpoises, but not much.
In addition to eating the same food as them, the porpoises in their family also had an extra basket of fish, half a basket for each porpoise. Otherwise, the food at home alone would not be enough for them to eat.
With the food intake of porpoises, if they eat all the vegetables, it will be too much burden for the cooks.
For the two porpoises, meals at home are mainly snacks, not staple food.
Chuan and the others had already set up the dishes and greeted Bai Wu, "Come over for dinner."
"I'll wash my hands and come!"
Bai Wu washed it with the water in the basin, and quickly ran to the table and sat down.
Today is Kishi Sheng's rice, and he filled the rice bowl very full, it was compacted, and it seemed to be full.
Steam is still rising from the white rice, and the log-colored chopsticks are placed beside it.
As soon as Bai Wu was seated, Chuan waved his hand, "Eat!"
Without saying a word, the whole family raised their chopsticks and pointed them towards the pot of fried bacon with winter bamboo shoots in the middle.
The bamboo shoots in their family are so precious this year. The family has planted bamboo for almost a year, and they have never eaten a bite of bamboo shoots.
Today is the first time.
The winter bamboo shoots are different from the bamboo shoots in other seasons. The winter bamboo shoots are obviously not as stretchy as the bamboo shoots in other seasons. The bamboo shoots are very dense, and the small pieces look a little delicate.
The white jade-like bamboo shoots are wrapped in fat and sauce, and once eaten, they are tender, crisp and fresh.
The umami taste is different from any umami they have tasted before, it is a pure umami from plants, very pure umami.
The sweetness of the bamboo shoots is reminiscent of spring. Like silkworms in spring, they quickly kill a few pieces of bamboo shoots, and only pick up the bacon when they are satisfied.
The bacon absorbs the umami flavor of the winter bamboo shoots. It is salty and delicious without being too oily. It is a perfect match with white rice.
After quickly finishing a bowl of rice, Bai Wu rubbed her stomach and announced, "I can eat three bowls of rice today."
Kishi followed immediately, "I can eat four bowls!"
Chuan glared and warned the two of them, "Keep it safe, only three bowls are allowed, if there is more, there is no rock candied berries to eat this year."
Last year, Bai Wu and Nan Yao made a lot of rock candied ground berries and put them outside the kitchen.
In addition to eating sour and sweet rock sugar ground berries as a snack, they also use it to digest food. Every time they are full, they will pick a bunch and eat it, appetizing and promoting digestion.
This year, they were busy collecting serious food, and they didn't have time to pick ground berries.
When it snowed heavily later on, the ground berries were buried under the snow. Now they don't even know if there are any ground berries, let alone pick them.
Thinking of this, Bai Wu felt quite regretful, "When the snow melts, let's go out and have a look. There are no rock candied berries. I always feel that something is missing in winter."
Nanyao looked out the window, "There should be hot springs there, go up the mountain early tonight and look for them."
"Then I'll prepare early."
After the family finished eating, Chuan and Mo cleaned up the dishes, while Bai Wu and Nan Yao went down to feed Xiao Dolphin with the food.
The two of them had just met each other after being separated for many days, and needed some alone time.
The two walked down deliberately, and talked for a while on the road.
The two little dolphins had been waiting for them by the river a long time ago when they heard their voices.
The river has not been frozen for the time being. Maybe this river is relatively large and the flow rate is relatively fast, so it is more difficult to freeze.
It was cold, and the two little dolphins didn't like to move even underwater. In other words, there were fewer fish in the river, and they couldn't catch many fish underwater, so they were too lazy to do useless work.
Now, the two porpoises are mainly fed by Bai Wu's family.
After feeding the little porpoise and comforting the two little ones, Bai Wu stood up and looked around.
Now the sky and the earth are white, and a few dead trees are exposed outside, which is also dark brown. It looks like an ink painting. "The scenery in winter is really monotonous."
Nan Yao stretched out his hand to hold him, "Let's go to the hot spring, the hot spring is warmer, it should be better."
Bai Wu slapped his head, "Yes, there is also a hot spring, why did I forget to plant the bamboo there? You reminded me, when we go later, dig a few more bamboos, we can save a few more so that they don’t freeze to death in winter.”
As soon as Baiwu mentioned planting, he immediately became interested, "There are also peppers, taro, etc., which are not very cold-resistant species. We will plant a portion at the hot spring."
As he spoke, he was about to run home, Nan Yao took his hand and pulled him back, "I've been away for so many days, do you remember your plants?"
"Of course not. If I didn't just remember you these few days, how could I not think of my crops until now?" Bai Wu leaned forward and kissed Nan Yao, then bent his eyes and said, "Let's get things done first before we can get married." Focus on doing the right thing.”
As for what is the real business, the two looked at each other, Nan Yao's smile deepened, while Bai Wu showed a provocative look.
Bai Wu and the others have been busy for several days in a row, and the "business" has been done, and the ground berries have also been picked.
They cleaned the ground berries, wrapped them in a thin shell of sugar, and inserted them into specially made straw handles.
The purple ground berries are wrapped in a thin sugar shell, which is especially suitable for snow.
Every time Bai Wu passed the courtyard, if it wasn't time to eat, he would always make a few strings and eat and play with his family.
It has been snowing almost every day for the past few days, and the snow that fell before has not melted. It is frozen outside, frozen into an ice shell, very smooth.When people walk on it, if they are not careful, they will slip far away, and then they will fall solidly.
Although Bai Wu's balance ability is good, she doesn't want to go out every day for the challenge of not wrestling.
What's more, it's freezing and snowy outside, and the wind is strong, and there's nothing to do, so it's better to stay at home.
He had nothing to do, so he just played cards with his father and brother at home. Five people played together. If he lost, he was punished to drink water. If he drank too much, he ran out to pee outside tremblingly. It was very fun.
Playing cards is not boring at all, and the one who always loses quits. "The water is not good to drink. I have admitted to the punishment. I must let me drink something else?"
Bai Wu leaned lazily on Nan Yao's body, "What else do you want to drink?"
Kishi: "Wine!"
Bai Wu narrowed her eyes, "Huh? Is the bitter grass wine at home ready?"
Kishi felt guilty for a moment, "Should it be brewed? I could smell the wine that day."
Just as a hand of cards was played, Bai Wu put the cards on the table, "You play first, I'll go and have a look."
Nan Yao: "I'll go with you."
Kishi shouted loudly behind them: "I opened it up to take a look the other day, and the brewing was pretty good."
The taste of bitter grass wine is much better than that of bitter grass, but it has a slight bitter taste, which is very stimulating to drink.
If you don't like bitterness, you can put a little seasoning in it to cover up the taste.
They drank a crock of bitter herbal wine in the autumn, when they used to put cool herbs and sour fruits in it.
Baiwu "dengdeng" ran into the utility room to take a look, and found that the mud seal on the side had been opened. Then he opened the dustpan covering it, and it was obvious that a layer of wine liquid had been scooped off, and there were still a few layers on the tank wall. There is a faint imprint.
Bai Wu poked his head out from the utility room and yelled towards the room: "An, you're stealing wine again!"
Kishi: "I just tasted it!"
"You liar! I've seen it all!"
Kishi retracted his neck and stopped talking.
Bai Wu went to the kitchen to get clean spoons and bowls, scooped up two and a half bowls, handed one bowl to Nanyao, and drank the other bowl himself.
The taste of this batch of bitter grass wine is heavier than the previous batch, and the bitterness is relatively strong, the taste is more mellow, and the flavor is fuller.
A gleam of surprise flashed in Bai Wu's eyes.
This is already a qualified wine. Compared with the wines he drank in his previous life, it is not inferior at all. Not to mention equal, at least it can be said to have a unique flavor.
Bai Wu licked her bright red lower lip, stared at her wine bowl, "It's still a bit bitter, I'll drink something sweet and see if it tastes better."
Nan Yao took the bowl in his hand, "I'll add sugar for you."
"No sugar, we boil it and drink it."
Bai Wu gulped down the wine in the bowl in one breath, the wine was cold, which made him tremble violently while holding the empty bowl.
After simply rinsing the bowl, he scooped up another bowl full of wine with bitter grass rice, planning to use this wine to make some special drinks.
They are now burning the kang, and there are burning briquettes in the stove.
Baiwu lifted the pot of boiling water, poured in the fermented rice, added water, and put it directly on the stove to boil.
Seeing him busy outside, Kishi ran out to take a look, "It smells good."
Bai Wu drank half a bowl of wine, feeling hot all over, he stretched comfortably, "When it boils, let's add a little sugar to it, and crack two duck eggs to make egg wine, the taste will be even more fragrant. "
Kishi said: "I think it's delicious to drink it empty mouth."
"It's also delicious when made into egg drop wine. It's fragrant and sweet. It can fill your stomach and protect you from the cold. It's a pity that you don't like ginger very much. If you like ginger, it's also good to make ginger wine."
"Ginger wine is fine, I'd rather drink ginger milk."
"That will have to wait until next spring, how can the sheep have milk now?"
The weather is so cold that their sheep don't produce much milk.
There is less goat milk, and they are too lazy to squeeze it.
They are not milking diligently, and the goat milk is even less, and now there is basically no milk.
Bai Wu estimated that they would have to wait until next spring, when they caught new ewes, or when the ewes gave birth to lambs next summer, that they would have new milk to drink.
The stove was burning very vigorously, and the pot on it boiled for a while, and the strong smell of wine drifted away with the water vapor. If they sniffed carefully, they could smell a unique aroma of grain.
Bai Wu brought Zicao sugar over and added two pieces to the pot.
Eggnog was originally a bit bitter, but after adding sugar, it became fragrant and sweet, and was unanimously welcomed by the whole family.
In their house, eggnog was warmed in the pot from morning till night.
Egg wine is delicious, but no matter how delicious it is, there are only five people in Baiwu's family. Even if you add Big Wolf and Little Dolphin, you can't consume much in total. After all, you can't eat it every day.
When Bai Wu scooped up the wine that day, he looked at the wine vat and froze in place.
Nan Yao gently pushed him, "Why?"
"I want to use this vat of wine to do something else." Bai Wu looked at the big wine vat below, and felt that one vat of wine was enough for drinking, and they could do something else with the remaining vat of wine.
"for example?"
"Steam some shochu?" Bai Wu raised her head and smiled, showing her neat little teeth, "Last time we said we were going to steam shochu, but we didn't have enough raw materials. We can try it this time, and brew another vat after steaming. Just do it."
There is still a little bit of bitter grass left in their house, which can be brewed again after pounding.
The taste of newly brewed wine is relatively light, which is suitable for eating empty stomachs or making egg drop wine.
Bai Wu wanted to steam wine, but his family had no objections.
He found out the set of utensils used to steam the rose dew earlier. The principle of the two is the same, both are distillation and condensation purification.
They don't even bother to just set the set up on the stove.
Anyway, they burn the kang all day long, and the temperature is enough to steam the wine.
Bai Wu is not in a hurry to steam, nor is he in a hurry to taste the shochu, just let the liquor drip slowly.
For a while, there was a faint smell of wine in the air, very intoxicating.
The fire on the stove was low, so they didn't have to watch the fire. They sat back in the house and continued to drink eggnog and play cards.
Drinking alcohol is much more comfortable than drinking water, but it is easy to cause frequent urination.The unlucky guy who lost the most drank and drank, and had to wrap up his robe and run out trembling to pee, which was painful and happy.
At this time, the two big wolves would flick their tails and run out to have fun after them. Even if they were driven back, their mouths would whine happily.
Bai Wu is very familiar with the routines of playing cards, has a good foundation in mathematics, and has never lost much.Nanyao's luck and mental arithmetic skills are good, and a family member in Chuan quietly released the water. Among the five of them, Mo and An lost the most.
The cards of both of them are relatively reckless, and they often lose badly in headwind games, but they are still competitive, the more frustrated they become, the more courageous they are, and they never take the initiative to admit defeat.
Because of the egg white wine and the game of cards, Bai Wu's house was full of laughter all day long.
Bai Wu felt that being with his family, having enough food and clothing, and having some entertainment, even if it was freezing outside, this was a good time enough.
Taking advantage of the fact that the winter bamboo shoots were still hot, Bai Wu and Nan Yao peeled off the thick bamboo shoots, and quickly got a whole piece of jade white bamboo shoots.
The bamboo shoots were steaming slightly, and a unique fragrance of bamboo shoots wafted out, filling the room.
Bai Wu swallowed, he hadn't eaten vegetables for several days, the taste of the bamboo shoots was so fragrant, it made his stomach growl louder than hunger.
Nan Yao put the peeled bamboo shoots in his hands on the black pottery plate, turned his head and said, "I'll peel the bamboo shoots, do you prepare the ingredients for frying the bamboo shoots?"
"This proposal won my heart!" Bai Wu stood up, threw the bamboo shoot shells into the stove, and ran happily, "I'm going to cut the bacon."
Their family has all kinds of cured meat, cured pig, cured sheep, cured cattle, cured deer...every kind is very fragrant.
Bai Wu went straight to the bacon.
The pigs are the domesticated wild boars fed by their family. They are all castrated boars. They usually eat wild vegetables, grain bran, wheat bran and aquatic plants, which are fat enough but delicious.

Bai Wu put down the kitchen knife: "I'm done."
Nan Yao put it down almost at the same time, "I'm fine too."
The two looked at each other and smiled, Bai Wu pushed Nanyao, "Fire the fire for me, I'm ready to cook."
Nan Yao sat down under the stove and started a fire.
Bai Wu rolled up his sleeves, ready to stir-fry.
Bai Wu looked at the cleaned and smoldering wok, and made fried bacon for the first dish.
He put the bacon into the pot, stir-fried the fat inside, then put in the garlic white and dark brown mouth-bite puree, and after boiling, put in the simmered winter bamboo shoots and stir-fried until every piece of bamboo shoots was coated with fat and The aroma of bacon, and then add sauce and garlic leaves.

Thinking of this, Bai Wu felt quite regretful, "When the snow melts, let's go out and have a look. There are no rock candied berries. I always feel that something is missing in winter."
Nanyao looked out the window, "There should be hot springs there, go up the mountain early tonight and look for them."
"Then I'll prepare early."
After the family finished eating, Chuan and Mo cleaned up the dishes, while Bai Wu and Nan Yao went down to feed Xiao Dolphin with the food.
The two of them had just met each other after being separated for many days, and needed some alone time.
The two walked down deliberately, and talked for a while on the road.
The two little dolphins had been waiting for them by the river a long time ago when they heard their voices.
The river has not been frozen for the time being. Maybe this river is relatively large and the flow rate is relatively fast, so it is more difficult to freeze.
It was cold, and the two little dolphins didn't like to move even underwater. In other words, there were fewer fish in the river, and they couldn't catch many fish underwater, so they were too lazy to do useless work.
Now, the two porpoises are mainly fed by Bai Wu's family.
After feeding the little porpoise and comforting the two little ones, Bai Wu stood up and looked around.
Now the sky and the earth are white, and a few dead trees are exposed outside, which is also dark brown. It looks like an ink painting. "The scenery in winter is really monotonous."
Nan Yao stretched out his hand to hold him, "Let's go to the hot spring, the hot spring is warmer, it should be better."
Bai Wu slapped his head, "Yes, there is also a hot spring, why did I forget to plant the bamboo there? You reminded me, when we go later, dig a few more bamboos, we can save a few more so that they don’t freeze to death in winter.”
As soon as Baiwu mentioned planting, he immediately became interested, "There are also peppers, taro, etc., which are not very cold-resistant species. We will plant a portion at the hot spring."
As he spoke, he was about to run home, Nan Yao took his hand and pulled him back, "I've been away for so many days, do you remember your plants?"
"Of course not. If I didn't just remember you these few days, how could I not think of my crops until now?" Bai Wu leaned forward and kissed Nan Yao, then bent his eyes and said, "Let's get things done first before we can get married." Focus on doing the right thing.”
As for what is the real business, the two looked at each other, Nan Yao's smile deepened, while Bai Wu showed a provocative look.
Bai Wu and the others have been busy for several days in a row, and the "business" has been done, and the ground berries have also been picked.
They cleaned the ground berries, wrapped them in a thin shell of sugar, and inserted them into specially made straw handles.
The purple ground berries are wrapped in a thin sugar shell, which is especially suitable for snow.
Every time Bai Wu passed the courtyard, if it wasn't time to eat, he would always make a few strings and eat and play with his family.
It has been snowing almost every day for the past few days, and the snow that fell before has not melted. It is frozen outside, frozen into an ice shell, very smooth.When people walk on it, if they are not careful, they will slip far away, and then they will fall solidly.
Although Bai Wu's balance ability is good, she doesn't want to go out every day for the challenge of not wrestling.
What's more, it's freezing and snowy outside, and the wind is strong, and there's nothing to do, so it's better to stay at home.
He had nothing to do, so he just played cards with his father and brother at home. Five people played together. If he lost, he was punished to drink water. If he drank too much, he ran out to pee outside tremblingly. It was very fun.
Playing cards is not boring at all, and the one who always loses quits. "The water is not good to drink. I have admitted to the punishment. I must let me drink something else?"
Bai Wu leaned lazily on Nan Yao's body, "What else do you want to drink?"
Kishi: "Wine!"
Bai Wu narrowed her eyes, "Huh? Is the bitter grass wine at home ready?"
Kishi felt guilty for a moment, "Should it be brewed? I could smell the wine that day."
Just as a hand of cards was played, Bai Wu put the cards on the table, "You play first, I'll go and have a look."
Nan Yao: "I'll go with you."
Kishi shouted loudly behind them: "I opened it up to take a look the other day, and the brewing was pretty good."
The taste of bitter grass wine is much better than that of bitter grass, but it has a slight bitter taste, which is very stimulating to drink.
If you don't like bitterness, you can put a little seasoning in it to cover up the taste.
They drank a crock of bitter herbal wine in the autumn, when they used to put cool herbs and sour fruits in it.
Baiwu "dengdeng" ran into the utility room to take a look, and found that the mud seal on the side had been opened. Then he opened the dustpan covering it, and it was obvious that a layer of wine liquid had been scooped off, and there were still a few layers on the tank wall. There is a faint imprint.
Bai Wu poked his head out from the utility room and yelled towards the room: "An, you're stealing wine again!"
Kishi: "I just tasted it!"
"You liar! I've seen it all!"
Kishi retracted his neck and stopped talking.
Bai Wu went to the kitchen to get clean spoons and bowls, scooped up two and a half bowls, handed one bowl to Nanyao, and drank the other bowl himself.
The taste of this batch of bitter grass wine is heavier than the previous batch, and the bitterness is relatively strong, the taste is more mellow, and the flavor is fuller.
A gleam of surprise flashed in Bai Wu's eyes.
This is already a qualified wine. Compared with the wines he drank in his previous life, it is not inferior at all. Not to mention equal, at least it can be said to have a unique flavor.
Bai Wu licked her bright red lower lip, stared at her wine bowl, "It's still a bit bitter, I'll drink something sweet and see if it tastes better."
Nan Yao took the bowl in his hand, "I'll add sugar for you."
"No sugar, we boil it and drink it."
Bai Wu gulped down the wine in the bowl in one breath, the wine was cold, which made him tremble violently while holding the empty bowl.
After simply rinsing the bowl, he scooped up another bowl full of wine with bitter grass rice, planning to use this wine to make some special drinks.
They are now burning the kang, and there are burning briquettes in the stove.
Baiwu lifted the pot of boiling water, poured in the fermented rice, added water, and put it directly on the stove to boil.
Seeing him busy outside, Kishi ran out to take a look, "It smells good."
Bai Wu drank half a bowl of wine, feeling hot all over, he stretched comfortably, "When it boils, let's add a little sugar to it, and crack two duck eggs to make egg wine, the taste will be even more fragrant. "
Kishi said: "I think it's delicious to drink it empty mouth."
"It's also delicious when made into egg drop wine. It's fragrant and sweet. It can fill your stomach and protect you from the cold. It's a pity that you don't like ginger very much. If you like ginger, it's also good to make ginger wine."
"Ginger wine is fine, I'd rather drink ginger milk."
"That will have to wait until next spring, how can the sheep have milk now?"
The weather is so cold that their sheep don't produce much milk.
There is less goat milk, and they are too lazy to squeeze it.
They are not milking diligently, and the goat milk is even less, and now there is basically no milk.
Bai Wu estimated that they would have to wait until next spring, when they caught new ewes, or when the ewes gave birth to lambs next summer, that they would have new milk to drink.
The stove was burning very vigorously, and the pot on it boiled for a while, and the strong smell of wine drifted away with the water vapor. If they sniffed carefully, they could smell a unique aroma of grain.
Bai Wu brought Zicao sugar over and added two pieces to the pot.
Eggnog was originally a bit bitter, but after adding sugar, it became fragrant and sweet, and was unanimously welcomed by the whole family.
In their house, eggnog was warmed in the pot from morning till night.
Egg wine is delicious, but no matter how delicious it is, there are only five people in Baiwu's family. Even if you add Big Wolf and Little Dolphin, you can't consume much in total. After all, you can't eat it every day.
When Bai Wu scooped up the wine that day, he looked at the wine vat and froze in place.
Nan Yao gently pushed him, "Why?"
"I want to use this vat of wine to do something else." Bai Wu looked at the big wine vat below, and felt that one vat of wine was enough for drinking, and they could do something else with the remaining vat of wine.
"for example?"
"Steam some shochu?" Bai Wu raised her head and smiled, showing her neat little teeth, "Last time we said we were going to steam shochu, but we didn't have enough raw materials. We can try it this time, and brew another vat after steaming. Just do it."
There is still a little bit of bitter grass left in their house, which can be brewed again after pounding.
The taste of newly brewed wine is relatively light, which is suitable for eating empty stomachs or making egg drop wine.
Bai Wu wanted to steam wine, but his family had no objections.
He found out the set of utensils used to steam the rose dew earlier. The principle of the two is the same, both are distillation and condensation purification.
They don't even bother to just set the set up on the stove.
Anyway, they burn the kang all day long, and the temperature is enough to steam the wine.
Bai Wu is not in a hurry to steam, nor is he in a hurry to taste the shochu, just let the liquor drip slowly.
For a while, there was a faint smell of wine in the air, very intoxicating.
The fire on the stove was low, so they didn't have to watch the fire. They sat back in the house and continued to drink eggnog and play cards.
Drinking alcohol is much more comfortable than drinking water, but it is easy to cause frequent urination.The unlucky guy who lost the most drank and drank, and had to wrap up his robe and run out trembling to pee, which was painful and happy.
At this time, the two big wolves would flick their tails and run out to have fun after them. Even if they were driven back, their mouths would whine happily.
Bai Wu is very familiar with the routines of playing cards, has a good foundation in mathematics, and has never lost much.Nanyao's luck and mental arithmetic skills are good, and a family member in Chuan quietly released the water. Among the five of them, Mo and An lost the most.
The cards of both of them are relatively reckless, and they often lose badly in headwind games, but they are still competitive, the more frustrated they become, the more courageous they are, and they never take the initiative to admit defeat.
Because of the egg white wine and the game of cards, Bai Wu's house was full of laughter all day long.
Bai Wu felt that being with his family, having enough food and clothing, and having some entertainment, even if it was freezing outside, this was a good time enough.
