MTL - Transmigrated To Ancient Times To Farm And Build A Kingdom-Chapter 6 Boil oil for fried meat
Long Xia was poor.
However, this does not mean that the Heluo tribe is poor.
In terms of wealth, the Heluo tribe is second to none in the Twilight Forest. Of course, this wealth means that the tribe will not starve and freeze, and the clansmen will be able to eat, and nothing else.
"You said about building a kiln just now, what's going on?" Nanfeng asked. He was busy eating just now, but Nanfeng didn't ask. At this moment, when she was full and had time to spare, she couldn't help asking questions.
Eating the stewed meat and fish **** one by one, Chang Xia, who was beside him, began to pour the river prawns into the earthenware pot to prepare for blanching. Seeing Chang Xia's patient actions, Nan Feng felt that she could eat three more bowls.
"I want to build my own animal nest. I call it a kiln. The location is on the west side of the hillside, and I will build a mountain-backed kiln by the hillside." Chang Xia said happily, without stopping. Down, stirring with a wooden spoon, the river prawns in the pot were quickly dyed golden yellow in the boiling water, and the faint fresh fragrance with a little fishy smell came to the nostrils.
Nan Feng stared at the river shrimp in the pot while listening to Chang Xia's explanation.
"If you need help, say it directly." Nan Feng opened his mouth to speak, but in the end he was not willing to speak out. After all, Chang Xia's expression made her unable to say anything to refuse.
"Yeah!" Chang Xia nodded, Nan Feng's support made her very happy.
Right now.
The river prawns in the clay pot are already cooked.
Chang Xia fished out the river prawns, took the washed fruit, pinched it hard, and dropped a little juice into the bowl. This yellow-skinned wild fruit has a sour taste. The tribe calls it sour fruit, and few people eat it. Chang Xia has stockpiled a lot, and she usually does not eat it directly, but uses it as a seasoning.
At noon, I was too hungry.
I didn't expect that at night, Nanfeng put half a fan of meat into the back basket.
She just saw it when she was packing up.
"Chang Xia, what are you doing with the sour fruit?" Nan Feng pouted, looking at the sour fruit in Chang Xia's hand with disgust. This sour fruit, no one in the tribe will collect except Changxia.
Even if they are extremely hungry, no one picks them, and some cubs in the tribe will pick them up by mistake.
"Squeeze the juice to taste. When you eat river prawns, dip them in some, it tastes better." Chang Xia took a river prawn, pinch the head and peeled off the shell. The snow-white prawn meat was dipped in a little sour juice.
Suddenly, a different kind of umami mixed with a little sour taste exploded directly on the taste buds. The amazing taste surprised even Chang Xia.
"How?" Shen Rong asked lightly.
Chang Xia gave a thumbs up and praised: "Delicious."
"Really?" Nan Feng drank the remaining soup in the bowl, learning how to peel shrimp in the long summer, hesitantly did not dare to dip in the sour juice. He turned sideways and looked at Shen Rong.
Shen Rong didn't say a word, he used the shrimp to dip a little sour juice.
"Ah!"
He exclaimed in a low voice, looking at the sour juice in the bowl in surprise.
Sour fruit, a very sour fruit in the Twilight Forest, few orcs will eat it.
Today, Chang Xia once again opened his eyes.
"This river prawn tastes more delicious than noon!" Shen Rong lowered his head and stared at the sour juice in the bowl. He never imagined that the sour and sour juice, combined with the river prawns, would evolve into such a wonderful delicacy.
See you.
Nanfeng no longer hesitated.
Peel the river prawns and dip them in the sour juice with chopsticks.
"Hey! It doesn't seem sour?" Nan Feng's beautiful eyes were wide open, full of shock and confusion.
"Pick more sour fruits this year and save them." Chang Xia said. Sour fruit, in addition to the sour juice can be used as a dipping sauce, the pulp is also delicious when pickled and dried.
Sweet and sour, soft and waxy.
Eating it, it has both the sour taste of lemon and the light fruity sweetness of hawthorn/green plum.
At the same time, it can also be used as dried tangerine peel for cooking.
Like ginkgo, it has a wide range of uses.
"Yes." Nan Feng agreed, but rarely did he say Chang Xia.
This meal, Nan Feng directly suffered.
Sit down and watch Shen Rong clean up the tableware. Chang Xia took the fine rattan, measured the size of Nanfeng's feet, and was skilled in weaving rattan shoes for Nanfeng.
"Changxia, when are you going to build the kiln?" Nanfeng asked.
She brought half a fan of meat, enough for Chang Xia and the two to eat for ten days. Even if you don't go out for hunting, you won't be hungry.
Chang Xia shook his head lightly and explained, "I want to build the kiln before the cold season. I'll go out to the salt lake tomorrow to get salt and pick some ginkgo fruits. In the afternoon, I'll start preparing the things needed to build the kiln..."
Said, she tilted her head to look at Nanfeng.
Building a kiln is different from animal dens.
However, some materials are required. Things like wood, stone, and the resin used to bond, all need to be prepared in advance.
Some orcs start preparing three or five years in advance in order to build a nest.
There are wood and stone materials near the tribe, but the resin used for bonding is scarce. It is produced from a special tree species called oil tree. When the bark of the oil tree is cut, a sticky yellow sap will flow out. After the sap is dried, it will become a building material similar to cement. resin.
When this resin is heated again, it will melt.
After melting, it becomes a cement-like adhesive, which is used to build animal dens.
"Chang Xia, wood, stone, and resin are used to build the nest. These are not prepared in advance. What are you going to use to build the nest?" Nan Feng covered the corners of his twitching mouth and looked at Chang Xia helplessly. Isn't this child whimsical?
"I will prepare the wood and stone materials, but the resin is more troublesome, can you exchange some with the tribe?"
Chang Xia was slightly embarrassed, she seemed to have really forgotten about these things.
Nan Feng raised his hand and pointed at Chang Xia, and said, "I use mine first for wood and stone. Whose wood and stone were just chopped down? Resin, I'll help you ask the tribe. Fish balls. It just happened to be exchanged. Originally, I planned to use the method of fish **** to help you replace some pottery and bone tools."
No matter how dissatisfied she is, it is the cub she has grown up with.
It is rare for Chang Xia to be aggressive, and Nan Feng is reluctant to attack.
Nanfeng has been an adult for many years.
The patriarch Gen did not hesitate to urge her to get married, but Nan Feng never found a male he liked, so he simply dragged her along.
However, the wood and stone used to build the nest.
Nanfeng began to prepare when he was an adult, and this time he will be transferred to Chang Xia to use it first.
"Nanfeng, that's what you'll use to build the nest..." Chang Xia shook her head, wanting to refuse.
Nan Feng rolled his eyes and asked, "Do you still want to build a nest? Besides, I haven't met a suitable male, so I'm not in a hurry to build a nest."
Mostly, UU reading www.uukanshu.com lived in my grandfather's house and was talked about.
"Changxia, let's build the nest first with the wood and stone prepared by Nanfeng. For hers, I will help prepare new ones later." Shen Rong said.
Nan Feng was satisfied with Shen Rong's ease, and asked Chang Xia about his next plan.
She got up to leave.
Chang Xia sent the people away, and asked Shen Rong to cut the half-slice of meat sent by Nanfeng into pieces. When the weather gets warmer, the meat cannot be stored for a long time, and it is easy to spoil.
"Chang Xia, are you still hungry?" Shen Rong said hesitantly as he cut the meat.
Chang Xia glared at him, washed the clay pot and placed it on the stove, planning to boil the meat in oil.
It's warm, so I can't make bacon.
Smoking takes time, and at the same time, it will go bad if it is not stored well.
So, she thought of fried meat.
Fried meat is simple to make and easy to store. In the era of simple materials such as tribes, fried meat is the most suitable storage method for this season.
Cut the meat into palm-sized pieces and put it in a clay pot to boil oil.
Wait for the meat to be fried to a golden color, wait for the oil to cool down, and then pour the oil and meat into a clay pot and refrigerate. This not only prevents the meat from rotting and spoiling, but also facilitates storage. At the same time, the fried meat tastes good too.
Soft and glutinous, burnt fragrance.
Add some wild vegetables to stir-fry, it is very delicious.
"This half-slice is too much meat, and we can't finish it. I'm going to fry it to make it into fried meat, and put it in a clay pot, so I don't worry about it breaking." Chang Xia explained, picking out a few pieces of the meat that Shen Rong had cut. Put the fat meat into the clay pot and start to boil the oil. After the oil is boiled, then put the other pieces of meat in, and soon a gluttonous smell of meat quickly fills the entire beast nest.
this moment.
Shen Rong was extremely glad that Nanfeng had left.
Also, their animal den is far away from the tribe.
Otherwise, with this smell, no one in the entire tribe would be able to sleep tonight.
