(Additional update 5/5 for book friends’ Eden rewards)

Han Cheng got up in surprise, and then went all the way to the warehouse where the grain was stored. According to his previous memory, he opened the door of the warehouse marked 'Nineteen' on the wall.

Most of it is stored in soybeans, and the other part is stored in peas with slightly black skin.

After Han Cheng came in this time, he ignored the soybeans that had become a versatile food since the stone-milled salt brine was taken out. Instead, he walked straight towards the peas stored on the other side.

After figuring out their value, Han Cheng also paid high enough attention to peas, a new grain obtained from semi-agricultural tribes.

So this spring, Han Cheng directly asked people to plant all the pea seeds they got in the ground, covering about thirty acres.

Now after harvesting, we have obtained several thousand kilograms of peas.

Looking at these black peas, Han Cheng was filled with joy and excitement. What kind of peas are these? They are clearly jelly!

Now that the autumn tiger continues to show off its power, the weather is unbelievably hot, and many tribesmen with strong appetites have lost their appetite due to the heat. It is a good time for jelly, an appetizing tool to relieve the heat, to come on stage!

"Carry out two bags!"

Han Cheng said to the senior brothers who came over.

There are many people in the tribe, and everyone is a complete foodie. Now when you encounter food like jelly in such hot weather, you can imagine what will happen next.

So Han Cheng directly asked his senior brother and the others to carry two bags, which weighed almost two hundred kilograms.

The senior brother and others naturally obeyed Han Cheng's orders.

After carrying the grain out of the granary and closing the door of the granary, Han Cheng took his senior brother and the others to the large canteen where they were cooking.

Have someone find several large pots, pour the peas in the bags into them, and add water.

The process of making jelly from peas is similar to that of making tofu from soybeans. You need to soak the dried beans in water first, and then grind them with a stone mill.

However, Han Cheng did not ask people to add water and then ignore it. Instead, he called two primitive women who had done the work of washing grain and asked them to wash the peas.

When the tribe shelled the peas to extract seeds, it was on the threshing floor.

Although the threshing floor has been ground flat with stone rollers before starting to process the grain, it is inevitable that the grain will still be mixed with some sand and dust. It is still very important to wash it before officially making food.

of.

The two primitive women sat on the wooden pier, each holding a fence made of broken bamboo strips under the guidance of Han Cheng, and began to wash the grain.

The so-called fence is a necessary tool for washing grain. It is a round shape about ten centimeters in diameter, with a handle and a slight depression in the middle.

Because it is made of woven bamboo strips, it has good water leakage.

The two female primitives held the fence in their hands and stirred the peas that had been submerged in the pottery basin in front of them a few times with their hands to spread them out so that the fine sand and gravel inside could fully settle to the bottom.

.

Then he used a picket to fish out some pea shells that had not been cleaned floating on the water and put them aside, and then the formal washing of food began.

The two primitive people held the handle of the fence, which was also made of bamboo, in their hands, sank the front end of the fence into the water, and then began to rotate rapidly in circles.

During the rotation process, it does not always rotate flatly, but sinks to both sides one to the left and one to the right.

In this process, some peas will be stirred by the fence and float along the water, and then be fished out on the fence.

As for sand that is denser than peas, it will basically not be stirred up.

After the two men fished out all the peas one by one, the water in the basin was also muddy, and there was still sand deposited at the bottom of the basin.

The washed peas were put into a large basin, and water was added to soak them again. The next morning, you could start making jelly.

Wu, who was fanning himself with a cattail leaf fan in his hand, watched from a short distance away as Han Cheng and others were processing peas.

He already knew that Han Cheng was making a kind of food.

If it were in the past, when they found out that the Son of God was getting something new, especially food, the witch would definitely join in.

But this time it was different. The hot weather made Wu feel breathless, and he had no desire to eat food.

Even when I think about food, I feel a little nauseous.

What a sin!

After realizing his current state, the witch waving the cattail leaf fan couldn't help but repeat his mantra in his heart again.

In the past, when tribal food was scarce, they could eat all kinds of food, and they always felt that they didn't have enough food.

But now, facing the food that is much better than that then, I feel a little nauseous. Isn't this a sin?

After reciting the words of sin several times in this way, Wu suddenly realized one thing, that is, he was already old.

If you can't even eat delicious food, doesn't this mean you are old?

After such thoughts came to his mind, Wu immediately felt a little panicked.

In the past, witches were not afraid of death, but now it is different. As the life in the tribe gets better day by day, witches don't want to die less and less.

Because he wanted to see how far his tribe could develop under the leadership of the Son of God.

I want to watch these minors in the tribe grow up and work together for the development and growth of the tribe.

Because of this thought in his mind, Wu suddenly realized that he was old and became a little worried. He didn't eat much food that night.

The next morning, Han Dashenzi, who also lost much appetite due to the hot weather and missed the jelly so much, got up and grinded the soaked peas himself.

The fat-bellied Bai Xuemei was still standing aside, holding a wooden spoon in her hand, pouring half a spoonful of peas and half a spoonful of water into the grinding eye.

The air in the morning is crisp and clear, with a look of someone who has not yet woken up. A few dogs bark, chickens croak and sheep bleat from time to time in the silence.

The yet-to-be-heated sunlight spreads through the bamboo forest, leaving little shadows behind.

The ground soy milk formed a column of water and fell into the large clay pot below. It made a gentle sound and at the same time, a piece of fine bubbles was released. The air was filled with the smell of raw soy milk.

The leisurely and soothing morning actually gave Han Cheng the idea of ​​letting time freeze here.

The sling is hung up again, and the bowl of soy milk grinded out also goes through the process of filtration.

With the passage of time, the innocent Chaoyang gradually turned into an old driver, no longer the gentle and clear appearance before, and began to show its power.

The weather also became sultry and hot, and everyone who worked began to become sweaty.

After thinking about it for half a night, Wu decided to force himself to eat more food, but now he didn't have much appetite anymore.

At this time, Han Cheng had already poured two jars of soy milk into the pottery pot and asked people to cook it over a fire.

As the flames rise and a large amount of white gas rises from the pottery pot, the temperature in the already hot kitchen becomes even higher, turning the whole place into a steamer-like shape. As soon as people enter, they are immediately covered in heat.

of sweat.

In summer, cooking in the kitchen is really not a good job

Han Cheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and saw that the bowl of soy milk boiling in the pottery pot was already boiling, so he scooped it up with a ladle and poured it into the basin that had been prepared nearby.

"Son of God, are you going to use salt brine?"

People in the tribe, especially those who help in the kitchen, are familiar with the process of making tofu.

Although peas and soybeans look different, they both carry the word "dou", and they both come from the "dou" character.

And the series of operations before this were exactly the same as when making tofu, so after seeing Han Cheng scoop up the cooked bowl of soy milk, except for letting people continue to put the bowl of raw soy milk into the pot and continue to cook, what else happened

He didn't do anything, and he had no intention of ordering tofu. After waiting for a while, he finally couldn't help but speak out to remind him.

After all, if you wait too long to cook the soy milk and add some tofu, it won't be as good.

Han Cheng wiped the sweat on his face with the towel hanging around his neck, shook his head with a smile and said: "No need to add salt brine, this is not making tofu, but another kind of food.

Moreover, except for soybeans, other beans cannot be made into tofu."

Compared with tofu, jelly is easier to make. You only need to cook the raw soy milk, scoop it into a basin and cool it.

If you buy pea flour directly, it will be more convenient and faster to make it.

Unfortunately, there was no ready-made pea flour for Han Cheng to buy at this time, so he had to grind the pea flour himself.

"This is a very delicious food. I'm sure you'll have a good appetite once it's cooked!"

Thinking about the refreshing feeling of eating jelly in later generations, Han Cheng swallowed a mouthful of saliva and explained the new food that was about to be released to the people who asked him with a mysterious look and some yearning and intoxication.

It's hot now, so the soy milk cools down and solidifies relatively slowly. After waiting here for a while, seeing that it still takes some time for these bowls of soy milk to solidify into jelly, Han Chenggong explained to the people helping in the kitchen and turned around to get out of the steamer.

An average kitchen.

The people helping in the kitchen are all people who are used to cooking food. With Han Cheng's demonstration just now and his experience in making tofu, it will not be a problem to do this.

As for Han Dashenzi who came out of the kitchen, he also had a very legitimate reason to leave the kitchen.

The reason is that he needs to prepare some condiments for this new food.

In fact, the real reason is that he couldn't stand the heat in the kitchen.

Chili sauce poured out of sesame sauce and hot oil and green coriander are good ingredients for seasoning jelly.

It's a pity that Han Cheng doesn't have any of these things.

Fortunately, there is vinegar, an indispensable seasoning when preparing jelly, otherwise the jelly made this time would be almost impossible to eat.

Coming outside, Han Cheng pulled out a lot of garlic from the garlic braids hanging on the wall under the eaves.

The tribe has owned garlic for several years. After several years of artificial cultivation, it has become much larger than before.
