Transmigrated to a Famine Year, a Fortunate Wife Relies on Her Farm to Prosper the Whole Family

Waking up from a dream, Su Yun transmigrated from a modern office worker to a young wife in an ancient rural village. Not only did she have an elderly and frail mother-in-law, but also two young an...

Chapter 166 Liquids Can Explode

As she walked in, talking, it was Sun Wanqing.

"You've got a big mouth! I just finished making this, and you're already here." Su Yun'er scooped up some golden and crispy coconut milk sticks onto a plate and carried them into the yard. "I made this first, have a taste, do you like it?"

Sun Wanqing had just eaten breakfast at home and wasn't hungry at the moment, but the aroma of fried food mixed with an unknown milky scent made her a little hungry.

She pulled Xiaoshu and Xiaocao down to sit under the grapevines, and gave each of them a coconut milk stick: "Here, eat it while it's hot."

The coconut milk sticks were still hot. Sun Wanqing blew on them, carefully put them in her mouth, closed her teeth, and after a crunchy sound, a burst of hot air shot out, burning her teeth.

She blew on it again before daring to continue biting.

The inside was very soft, and that soft texture reminded Sun Wanqing of tofu pudding.

"Is this filled with tofu pudding? But why does it have such an... indescribable aroma? And a hint of milky fragrance."

"This is not tofu pudding, it's coconut milk sticks, or you could call it fried coconut milk."

"Fried coconut milk? What's coconut milk? Coconut, coconut milk, is it made from coconuts?"

Sun Wanqing asked one question after another out of curiosity, but that didn't stop her from continuing to enjoy the food. In the meantime, she had already finished a fried coconut milk!

"Yes, coconut milk is the milky white liquid left after coconuts are squeezed. Because it is milky white, just like cow's milk, it is called coconut milk or coconut cream."

"Slurry? Milk? Isn't that a liquid? Can you fry liquid?"

Sun Wanqing was quite shocked by the fried coconut milk dessert. Wouldn't the oil splatter when the liquid was poured into the oil pan?

Su Yun'er smiled mysteriously and offered no further explanation: "Fried coconut milk, others can't make it, but I did. Isn't it delicious?"

"Delicious, you're the best." Sun Wanqing said, picking up the cup beside her and taking a sip.

This was given to me by Su Yun'er after I sat down.

The cup felt a little cold to the touch, and the contents were cool and refreshing with a subtle sweetness.

"!"

"What is this? I've never had this before!" Sun Wanqing exclaimed in delight.

"Isn't this the coconut you brought? You haven't tried it?"

"I have tried it before. The taste is somewhat similar, but also different. This one is cool and refreshing, which makes it taste better," Sun Wanqing honestly admitted. "But didn't you just say that you made fried coconut milk with the two coconuts that were delivered?"

"Both coconuts were used up. Coconut water is sweet and thirst-quenching, so naturally some should be saved for drinking. You said it tastes different from what you've had before, which is probably because I chilled the coconut water. In my opinion, coconut water should be drunk chilled! That's when it has the best flavor! Please sit for a while, I'll go check if the ice bowls I made are ready."

After Su Yun'er finished speaking, she turned around and went back to the kitchen, mysteriously closing the door and instructing everyone not to peek.

Sun Wanqing called Xiaoshu to bring out two cups, and shared the coconut water with Xiaoshu and Xiaocao.

"Is this what Mother put in the well yesterday? It tastes so good!" Little Tree exclaimed.

Unfortunately, this thing is too expensive.

Su Yun'er fiddled around in the kitchen for a long time before finally opening the door and bringing out a bowl.

Sun Wanqing and the little trees and grass eagerly awaited their arrival.

"Mom, you're finally done! We've been waiting so long!" Little Tree chuckled.

"Hey, try this."

On the tray that Sun Wanqing brought over, there were several bowls and plates. In the middle were two large bowls. One bowl contained something that looked like water, neither liquid nor solid, and it trembled slightly. The other bowl contained a milky white liquid that smelled similar to the fried coconut milk from earlier.

The two large bowls are surrounded by a ring of smaller bowls, each containing a different item.

"How...how are we supposed to eat this?" Sun Wanqing looked at Su Yun'er, waiting for the answer.

"This is the ice bowl I was talking about; there are many ways to eat it," Su Yun'er said with a smile.

As luck would have it, a couple of days ago, when Su Yun'er was taking stock of her game inventory, she found a bag of ice jelly seeds in a corner. Ice jelly seeds were not among the crops that Su Yun'er had already unlocked, and she didn't remember getting them from a quest gift pack. After thinking about it, she figured she probably stole them while stealing vegetables, but she probably stole too many different kinds at one time, so she didn't notice them.

Having found the seeds for making ice jelly, Su Yun'er decided to make ice jelly to eat.

But before we could even do anything, Sun Wanqing sent over some coconuts. What a coincidence! We could use the ice jelly seeds to make coconut jelly.

Ice jelly seeds are tiny granules that, after being soaked in water and rubbed, will secrete a sticky liquid. This liquid can be used to make ice jelly.

Place the ice jelly seeds in a cloth bag, seal it, and soak it in water for an hour. Then, squeeze the bag and rub it in the water; the sticky liquid will be released from the ice jelly seeds inside. After washing the ice jelly seeds, slowly pour the top layer of a bowl of pre-sedimented lime water into the ice jelly seed water.

After chilling for one or two hours, the ice jelly is ready.

Iced jelly was a common item served at many hot pot restaurants in Su Yun'er's previous life. It was crystal clear with a jelly-like texture. When eating it, you could add brown sugar syrup, raisins, hawthorn slices, fruit pieces, and even some shaved ice. After stirring it all together, it became a perfect way to beat the summer heat.

"This is ice jelly, this bowl is coconut milk, these bowls contain diced fruit from the fruit you brought yesterday, this is watermelon cubes, these two bowls contain red bean paste that I made myself, and this bowl contains steamed brown sugar syrup. You can combine these things however you like. They're not only delicious, but also icy cold, refreshing, and sweet to cool you down in the summer."

Listening to Su Yun'er's explanation, the two gluttons, Little Tree and Little Grass, were already drooling.

Sun Wanqing also found it very strange. Not to mention that she had never seen some of the food before, she also found the way of eating it strange.

As Su Yun'er explained, she prepared a portion and delivered it to Sun Wanqing.

"Mom, I want one too!" Little Grass said, shaking Su Yun'er's arm affectionately.

"Yes, yes, yes." Su Yun'er couldn't help but laugh and made a bowl for each of her two gluttonous cats.

But no matter how much Gai Xue pleaded, she couldn't get a single bite.

Sun Wanqing scooped up a spoonful of ice jelly. The transparent jelly trembled on the spoon. When she put it in her mouth, it was cool and refreshing. It didn't have much flavor on its own, and the broth was what gave it its taste. The fruit, on the other hand, had been soaking in well water all night. The coolness of the well water had seeped into every fiber of the fruit. It was sweet, sour, and refreshing. After taking a couple of bites, she felt the heat in her body being dispelled by the coolness emanating from within.

"Phew, delicious!" Sun Wanqing ate a big bowl, but still lingered, staring at the bowl of white coconut milk. "Yun'er, how do we eat this?"
