Chapter 72 072 Dry Goods
As soon as the soup was cooked, Xia Tian took advantage of the opportunity to find the vegetables and berries that Si Ye had brought back, and went out to pick some flowers, preparing to process them into dried goods for storage.
Si Ye had brought her nearly ten kilograms of various fruits and vegetables before, and she had almost eaten them all. Some of them had to rot because they had not been processed in time, which she thought was a waste.
The weather was hot in the past few days. Although there has been no sun these days, the temperature has not dropped at all, and the humidity in the air has increased. The shelf life of these fruits and vegetables will only be shorter.
Si Ye had just gone out, perhaps because he felt awkward being with Xia Tian, but it also gave her some time to deal with the live broadcast. "These fruits and vegetables need to be processed into dried fruits. If you want to eat them daily, just cook them, or boil them in hot water to make flower and fruit tea. It's good for beauty and skin care."
[I don't believe what other anchors say about beauty and skin care, but I do believe what Xia Xia says!]
[Looking at Xia Xia's lifestyle, you'll understand that mindset is truly important, especially for people like us who are under so much pressure...]
[Stop talking, I almost want to cry. By the way, is there a similar model for sale? ]
[Looking at this is quite relaxing. I heard it can treat hair removal.]
Treatment for hair removal?
Xia Tian didn't know where this statement came from, that watching live broadcasts can cure baldness... This is as ridiculous as eating iodized salt to prevent radiation.
However, if watching her live broadcast can relieve your mood, it cannot be said to be a cure, but it should be able to delay the baldness caused by excessive stress.
"I am very grateful for everyone's support, and I am also very glad that some people can find healing through my live broadcast. But if there are any physical problems, everyone should go to the hospital for a check-up in time." Xia Tian chose to remind at the right time.
"Next, we're going to start making dried vegetables. The basic steps are actually very simple. First, wash all the raw materials, then cut them into appropriate sizes... and remove the inedible parts. Finally, prepare clean containers to hold them and place them in a cool, ventilated place to air dry."
However, the humidity in the air is very high at the moment, so the air-drying plan may not be successful. We may have to use fire to steam it dry.
In addition, you also need a container to store these dried fruits and vegetables. It needs to be clean enough, have a large enough surface area, be easy to organize, and be ventilated.
The first thing Xia Tian thought of was a winnowing basket.
A winnowing basket is a flat container made of bamboo, which is both hard and flexible. It is usually used for drying fruits and can also assist in shelling operations.
This thing is very common in rural areas of China. Farmers usually use it to dry pickles and radishes. Some families in cities also use it. It is very convenient.
But in a place like the Beast World, and the "galaxy" where the audience in the live broadcast room are, even seeing flint and eating fish is a big deal, so a dustpan is probably... a fairy tale, right?
Moreover, the winnowing basket is woven with bamboo strips. Xia Tian has no pressure in terms of technology, but it is not easy to find material that looks like bamboo.
After all, this is not a fish basket. There is a certain amount of adjustment space when placed in water. If you use vines to weave it, I am afraid that in the end you will only weave a big pocket for things, so you cannot use a winnowing basket.
Then we can only use the old method. First, build a frame with branches, then fix the frame with vines, weave a grid with the warp and weft method, and cover it with leaves for drying.
