Chapter 434 What to Eat Today

"I've told you all the details, have you remembered them?" Su Ying asked.

"I'll remember it!" Apo, Diexiu and others replied respectfully.

Elder Aying's skills are enough to ensure that they and the descendants of Jinfeng Village will never go hungry for generations.

"That charcoal powder isn't ordinary charcoal powder. Only Uncle Wang and his team can make it. Others are useless. It's called activated carbon.

"Jinfeng Village and Huanggou Village have been friendly for generations, so only then can we produce rock sugar and white sugar, otherwise it would be in vain," Su Ying reminded.

The entire process was taught, but the key ingredient, activated carbon, is in the hands of Huanggou Village. Even if the technology is leaked, it will not be easy to produce.

"I know! Jinfeng Village and Huanggou Village have been friendly for generations!" Apo and others solemnly promised.

"These are the costs of purchasing brown sugar!" Su Ying handed over a box of silk.

"No need, Grandpa said that these brown sugars are our wages!" Apo waved his hand.

Compared with white sugar and rock sugar, this little bit of brown sugar is simply not worth mentioning!

The shock I felt when I saw the pots of crystal clear rock sugar!

The strings of ice crystals on the twine, and the thin layer on the surface, when tapped gently, turn into tiny particles of white sugar.

The seemingly inadvertent twine is actually the key to crystallization! Oh my god, how did Elder Aying come up with this?

"Take these cans of candy back for grandpa and the village elders to try!" Su Ying gave some rock sugar, white sugar, winter melon candy, and mint candy.

"Yes! Thank you, Mr. Aying Village Chief!" Apo and his friends went back happily.

Su Ying sprinkled the sifted lime powder on the winter melon candy, mint candy, rock sugar and white sugar.

"What are you doing?" Fuxi looked at him in confusion while chewing winter melon candy.

"Keep it dry to prevent the sugar from melting when it gets hot." Su Ying replied.

"?" Fuxi looked at the winter melon candy in his hand, "Is this still edible?"

"It's just a little bit, why can't I eat it?" Su Ying laughed, "You soaked your winter melon candy in lime water, and you ate it just fine!"

"Why didn't you tell them just now?" Fu Xi seemed to be thinking about something, and he always felt that it was not Su Ying who forgot.

Su Ying smiled and said, "You will understand later."

"What do you understand?" Song Xuanyu and Master Liu came in casually.

Looking around, he saw the winter melon candy in Fuxi's hand, and his eyes lit up, "Is this the winter melon candy?"

"Well, try it!" Su Ying handed it to the two Taotie.

When you take a bite, it is sweet, with sugar juice bursting out, but it melts into crumbs in your mouth, as if there is something, but there is nothing.

"I don't taste any winter melon!" I took a closer look at the winter melon candy. It was light green, as thick as a finger, and hard.

"Try this!" Su Ying broke off a piece of mint candy.

"What is this?" Song Xuanyu put it in his mouth and was stunned. His mouth was filled with the refreshing and cool feeling of mint.

"What is this? Why is it so weird?" Song Xuanyu felt a chill in his throat.

"Mint candy!" Su Ying packed some for both of them.

"I knew it wouldn't be a wasted trip!" Song Xuanyu opened the lid and saw rock sugar, white sugar, winter melon candy, and mint candy.

I am very satisfied. Only this young Master Su is so generous, which is hard to find outside.

"What's not to come here in vain?" Fuwang's voice came from the door.

"Oh, I thought you forgot!" Su Ying laughed, "Did you guys make an appointment? You all came today."

"What agreement? If I don't come soon, you will deliver them all!" Fuwang said in his usual sarcastic tone.

Song Xuanyu looked at Fuwang. He was wearing the uniform of a ninth-rank official, so why did he have the surname Fu?

"Come, come, let me introduce you. This is the new county magistrate, County Magistrate Song, and Master Liu, and this is Master Fu Wangfu, the manager of the Ministry of the Imperial Household!"

Su Ying introduced both parties.

"I've heard a lot about you!" Both sides bowed and exchanged polite words.

"Are all of you, the Supervisor of the Imperial Household, surnamed Fu?" Song Xuanyu looked at Fuxi and then at Fuwang.

"We are colleagues and belong to the same generation with the surname Fu!" Fuxi said with a smile.

Fuwang saw the white porcelain jar in front of Song Xuanyu and Master Liu, and silently turned his head and glared at Su Ying.

"Everything in these jars is yours, take it!" Su Ying pretended not to notice Fuwang's glare.

Fuwang opened it and saw that the winter melon candy was not reddish-brown, but light green, covered with icing sugar. He reached out and picked up one to taste.

The taste is pure and sweet, it melts in the mouth and the sugar juice bursts out, but it does not have the sandy taste of brown sugar.

"Well, not bad!" Fuwang nodded with satisfaction, no longer angry, and said to the people outside, "Take them all away!"

A group of guys came in and carried out the jars one by one.

"If the weather is hot, sprinkle some lime powder and mix it well, it will keep dry!" Su Ying whispered close to Fuwang.

"Really? Is it possible?" Fuwang's eyes widened.

"Well, I have already spread some of these. They will last for a while!" Su Ying nodded.

"The people at Jinfeng Village have already learned it. From now on, you can ask Grandpa directly for the goods! This drying method is only for you!"

"Thank you!" Fuwang understood immediately.

In order to prevent someone in Jinfeng Village from leaking the technology, even if it can be made in the future, it cannot be preserved for a long time in hot weather.

Su Ying smiled and finally arranged everything.

Once Huanggou Village, Jinfengzhai and Fulong Caravan are separated, the sugar produced will have problems of one kind or another.

"What should we eat today?" After finishing the business, Fuwang looked at Su Ying eagerly.

The food outside is still Hu Bing and steamed cakes. Fried dough sticks, steamed cakes and rice cakes have become popular in many places, but none of them are as delicious as Su Ying's.

After a tiring journey, when I arrived in Wu County, I wanted to go to the Su family in Huanggou Village to find something to eat.

"Uh!" Su Ying scratched her head. She had been busy making sugar these days and had no energy to eat.

Several distinguished guests suddenly came to my house today, and I didn’t prepare any food, which made me feel very embarrassed.

"Xiao Tao, Atang!" Su Ying called her two sisters, "Go to Uncle Pei's house and buy ten pounds of pork belly."

The Pei family slaughtered a pig yesterday. I wonder if there is any pork belly left.

"Yeah!" The two little girls ran away and brought back a large piece of pork belly after a while.

"Sister, what delicious food can you cook?" Xiaotao hasn't eaten the food cooked by her sister for a long time.

"Cui Shao! Let's have noodles tonight! Go play, you have to wait a little longer!" Su Ying said with a smile.

Instruct Huang Cui'er and Ahua to knead the dough.

I picked off the hair from the pork belly, roasted the skin in a pan, washed it and cut it into finger-sized cubes.

Chop the ginger and garlic into fine pieces, grind the peppercorns into powder, add salt, soy sauce and a little sugar to make a sauce.

Put the diced pork belly into the pot and stir-fry over high heat. After the oil comes out, reduce the heat to low and simmer slowly.

Scoop out the boiled lard and fry until the diced meat becomes crispy, then pour in the prepared sauce and stir-fry.

Add a spoonful of vinegar when serving, and the crispy whistles will remain crispy for a long time.

Ten pounds of pork belly only gave me a large bowl of crispy shreds and a small bowl of crispy skin, and the rest was all lard.

The whole house was filled with a fresh fragrance, which spread ten miles on the wind and could be smelled by the whole village.

The people drinking tea became hungrier the more they smelled the food. They stopped chatting and gathered around the stove, staring at the crispy whistle and crispy skin with bulging eyes.

"Master Su, what is this?" Song Xuanyu asked knowingly.

"It's crispy and crunchy, try it!" Su Ying handed over the chopsticks.

Several people took it without hesitation, picked up a small piece each, blew on it while it was still sizzling with oil, and put it in their mouths.

It is fresh, crispy and has the aroma of sauce, pepper, salt and meat. It is so delicious!
