Rong Jing came back faster than Yu Lili today. When Yu Lili came back, Rong Jing and Chu Ming had already started cooking.
Although she was not injured today, Rong Jing still felt a little subconsciously guilty when she saw Yu Lili walking towards her.
No, why is she feeling guilty?
Rong Jing was about to speak when she saw Yu Lili rushing towards her faster: "Rong Jing, you're back?"
"Yeah." Rong Jing nodded.
Then she saw Yu Lili looking her up and down, his nose twitching: "You're not hurt today?"
Looking at Yu Lili's happy and surprised little face, Rong Jing nodded again.
"That's great." Yu Lili was even happier. She puffed out her chest proudly and said, "I learned how to make potions from my teacher today, and it was successful every time!"
Rong Jing, a pseudo-interstellar person who had no knowledge of or sensitivity to potions, smiled calmly and praised, "That's amazing."
"Hehe, it's only Level 1 potions that I'm learning so quickly." Yu Lili felt a little embarrassed. She said, "Then can you bring me some mutant animal bones tomorrow? I want the leg bones of a Level 1 mutant rabbit and the skull of a Level 2 mutant chicken."
"Okay, then we'll have rabbit and chicken tomorrow." Rong Jing agreed immediately.
Yu Lili happily hugged Rong Jing and said, "Rong Jing, you are so kind!"
Rong Jing laughed.
After talking about the potion, Yu Lili thought of the 'fruit' she had picked. She was very excited: "Rong Jing, I brought back a kind of fruit today. Do you think it's edible?"
"Take it out and let me see it."
Rong Jing originally thought that the fruit that Yu Lili was talking about was similar to the red fruit and white fruit that Yu Lili wanted to eat before, all of which were real fruits, but she didn't expect Yu Lili to take out - corn.
That’s right, corn.
Although it had grown much larger, Rong Jing could still tell at a glance that it was corn. But when she thought of Yu Lili calling corn "fruit," she didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "This isn't fruit."
"Ah? I can't eat it?" Yu Lili was puzzled. "I quite like it."
In the past, Yulili liked only edible things, but this time it seemed that he made a mistake, and Yulili was a little disappointed.
[??? No way? How could baby Carp not like food?]
[Yes, she always finds something useful.]
[No way... I like the good luck of baby Koi.]
"This is also edible, but it's not fruit." Rong Jing shook her head and said with a smile, "This is something very delicious."
"Hey?" Yu Lili's eyes lit up again: "Really?"
"Really?" Rong Jing weighed the corn in her hand and asked, "How many did you pick?"
"Just four. My subspace can only hold four." Yu Lili took out the other three, and she and Rong Jing each held one in their hands.
"Chu Ming, take a look here first. I'll peel the corn first." Rong Jing shouted.
Chu Ming nodded: "Okay."
"This thing is called corn, and it's a very delicious food." Rong Jing taught Yu Lili: "The outer layer is the husk, which needs to be peeled off. We only eat the kernels inside."
As Rong Jing spoke, she moved, and Yu Lili imitated her to peel corn.
The corn was very big. Rong Jing and Yu Lili peeled one each and then stopped. Then Rong Jing used the corn husk as a cushion and took a kitchen knife to cut the corn.
First, cut a corn into five sections horizontally, each about 20 cm long, and then cut each section into four parts vertically.
This is about the right size.
——Here I have to say that the quality of the Star Era kitchen knife is very good. It can cut such a large corn very smoothly.
The corn was cut, and Yulili was eager to eat it: "Can I eat it now?"
"Of course... no." Rong Jing paused for a moment, then saw Yu Lili's eyes light up. Then, she was stunned and couldn't help laughing. "Let's add another dish today, pork ribs stewed with corn. Can you help me peel the corn kernels?"
"Sure!" Yu Lili nodded.
Rong Jing patted her head and said, "I'll go roast some corn for you now."
"Can corn be roasted?" Yu Lili wondered.
"Not only can it be baked, but it can also be boiled and fried." Rong Jing estimated: "We don't have much time today, so I'll fry it for you next time. Today I'll bake two for you and boil the rest."
"Good!" Yu Lili was already satisfied to be able to eat three flavors of corn at one time.
She sat on a clean big rock next to her and peeled corn kernels. Rong Jing went to prepare some spare ribs. The main course for dinner was originally steamed buns, but now steamed buns are also half a main course. They are all steamed, but only half of them need to be taken out. After all, corn can also be a main course!
Two portions of roasted corn were prepared for Yu Lili, but Rong Jing didn't just roast two portions, after all, there were so many mutant animals and so many people.
After calculating, she found that the number was too large, so Rong Jing simply started a new fire, then planted a circle of corns around the fire, and wrapped the corns with corn leaves to prevent them from being burned.
Yu Lili was quick with his hands and peeled the corn quickly, even peeling a lot.
She didn't know how much she needed, and Rong Jing didn't expect her to be so fast, so in a blink of an eye, the bowl she gave to Yu Lili was piled high.
Rong Jing: “…”
She quickly stopped him: "Okay, that's enough, no need to peel it."
"Is that enough?" Yu Lili hesitated as he looked at the half-shelled corn in his hand. "How about I continue shelling it? There's still room in this bowl."
"...You peel it." Rong Jing didn't know what to say for a moment.
With five mutant animals and four people, Rong Jing roasted a total of ten portions of corn.
A corn was divided into twenty portions, and seven portions of corn kernels were peeled for stewing pork ribs. There were twenty-three portions of corn left, and Rong Jing prepared to cook them all.
The pork ribs and corn stew were already stewing. Rong Jing took out another big pot and put in twenty-two portions of corn.
Add water to cover the corn and build another fire to cook. Rong Jing warned Xiao Jin and Xiao Yu who were playing nearby: "Don't touch the fire, or your feathers will be burned."
Xiao Jin said happily: "Chirp."
Xiaoyu is very obedient: "Chirp."
The two little ones obediently avoided the fire. Rong Jing peeled the last portion of corn and put it in the bowl next to them.
Corn is naturally sweet, and after being boiled and roasted, the fragrance comes out.
The only thing I didn’t eat in today’s dinner was corn. It’s easy to guess what the fragrance came from today.
When Rong Jing noticed, Yu Lili had already squatted next to the pot of pork ribs stewed with corn.
"What are you doing here? Be careful, there might be oil spills nearby that could burn you."
"It smells so good..." Yu Lili sniffed, "It smells the best here, Rong Jing, can you smell it?"
[To be honest, I smelled it too. When I first saw this thing called corn, I didn't think it was anything special.]
[I've seen this before, but I didn't expect it to be edible.]
【And it smells really good! 】
[I want it to be cooked quickly, and I want to try it too. I'm in the same position as Lili right now, squatting next to her.]
【What a coincidence, me too. 】
【I also……】
"This one does smell good, but you don't have to squat here, do you?" Rong Jing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She estimated that it was almost time, so she simply pulled Yu Lili up and said, "Come on, this one should be cooked."
Rong Jing caught the fish and walked to the pot where the corn was cooked and opened the lid.
To be honest, when the lid of the pot was not lifted, the strongest aroma that Yu Lili and the audience could smell was the smell coming from the pork ribs stewed with corn. But when Rong Jing lifted the lid of the pot, a sweet fragrance hit them in the face.
The aroma made Yu Lili's eyes brighter. Rong Jing took a chopstick and stuck it into the corn cob. She held the corn up and handed it to Yu Lili: "Be careful, it's hot."
"Yeah." Yu Lili nodded, puffed out his cheeks and blew on the corn, then carefully bit off a grain of corn.
The corn was so big that one grain was as big as her thumb.
The corn was still hot when it first entered his mouth. Yu Lili was breathing heavily because of the heat, but he was reluctant to spit it out.
Because it’s sweet and fragrant!
After finally finishing the first kernel, Yu Lili's eyes sparkled as he saw Rong Jing take out several more corns and put them in the basin next to him.
Seeing the fish carp looking at her, Rong Jing smiled and asked, "How is it? Is it delicious?"
"Mmm, it's very delicious! I declare that I like corn the most!" Yu Lili nodded in the affirmative.
The author has something to say:
good evening.
