"......"
After playing around, it was time to get down to business. The two of them couldn't bear to waste the flour in their mouths, so they forced themselves to drink some water and swallow the raw flour.
There are many ways to use flour: steamed buns, dumplings, bread... and even cakes can be made from it.
After thinking for a moment, Su Yuan decided to make steamed buns and dumplings. The former was to let everyone distinguish between whole wheat flour and white flour, while the latter was simply because he wanted to try the meat dumplings from another world.
"Alright, stop fooling around. Next, I'll teach you how to use this to make food."
Pulling the two people who were annoyed by his playful fight apart, Su Yuan added water to each of the two basins and began stirring until the flour formed a lump.
Looking at the lump of dough, he suddenly realized a serious problem: damn it, he didn't have a steamer!
"You two go find a round wooden board, one that can fit into the pot, and then poke some small holes in it."
In my past life, when I was at home, my mother wouldn't buy special steamers to make buns. She would usually coat the stainless steel steamer with oil and put the buns directly into the perforated steaming rack.
Nowadays, even tribes have iron pots; all that's needed is a steamer rack.
Soon, the two returned carrying a wooden board. For them, it was very easy to poke some small holes in the board. Looking at the densely packed holes, Su Yuan nodded.
Now there's only one last problem: the yeast.
Steamed buns made without yeast fermentation can be used as bricks after cooling. However, this is not difficult, provided that a lot of time is required to make a batter by mixing flour and water and letting it sit at room temperature for two days to ferment.
Alternatively, you can mix rotten fruit with a batter, seal it, and ferment it to produce yeast.
However, since he had already prepared the dough, he couldn't wait two days for it to ferment, so Su Yuan directly bought a packet of yeast from the system shop.
After all the preparations were complete, Su Yuan divided the whole wheat dough into several portions. One portion was mixed with snow frost honey, another with snow bamboo juice, and the remaining portions were mixed with juices from different fruits.
Some of the same white flour was also added, but Su Yuan reserved a portion to wrap some pickled mustard greens and minced pork from the monster, making about twelve buns.
Finally, put it in the steamer!
After a while, wisps of white smoke rose from the tightly covered pot, and the rich aroma attracted almost everyone. Even Shouyan, who was studying how to make money in the market, put down what he was doing.
"Is it really edible? You're not lying to us this time, are you?"
Seeing the steam rising from the pot, Maoye's mouth was practically watering, but then she looked at Su Yuan with some suspicion, remembering the flour still on her face.
"Of course... I was just kidding. Let me try it first."
The time was almost up. Su Yuan lifted the lid and looked at the glistening, plump steamed buns. Although they were not very pretty, the aroma and fluffiness were almost exactly the same as in his previous life.
From planting wheat to grinding it into flour, and finally making it into delicious buns and steamed bread, this accumulation and experience spanning four thousand three hundred years was completed in one step on this clear snowy plain.
Su Yuan felt a great sense of accomplishment, even more so than when he researched fruit wine and made pottery. It was something ingrained in his genes.
From then on, in this alien world, people no longer had to follow nature, but instead transformed and changed it. They no longer needed to constantly migrate their territories to chase after prey, as they had before, and they had their own fixed places to live.
The future Star Tribe will take root in this snowfield and thrive until its branches and leaves cover the entire continent...
