The two of them were busy...
The earthen oven soon took shape under the hands of the two people.
A suitable sized furnace was left and a chimney was inserted.
Seal the roof with mud mixed with straw, and then evenly apply mud to the surface of the bricks.
Then add a handful of firewood to the stove and dry it out.
This earthen oven is now built!
......
Mu Yunxi looked at the earthen oven that the two of them had built with their own hands, with satisfaction in her eyes.
At the same time, I feel a great sense of accomplishment.
Wait for the soil inside the furnace to dry slowly...
Mu Yunxi let it continue to ventilate and air-dry for two more days.
Wait until all parts of the furnace are completely dry and stable.
Mu Yunxi couldn't wait to try it out.
It was her first time baking food, so she planned to make a few simple ones.
I picked out a few sweet potatoes and potatoes of similar size, and prepared some chestnuts, and cut a slit in them.
When the oven is almost heated...
Mu Yunxi then put these things into the stove one by one.
As the fire grew stronger, a slight crackling sound could be heard from the stove from time to time.
But after about half an hour, a rich and sweet smell could be smelled, slowly spreading through the air.
The rustic aroma of potatoes, the rich sweetness of roasted sweet potatoes, and the unique fruity aroma of roasted chestnuts...
That smell... is so delicious!
Mu Yunxi and Sheng Zhiyi took a deep breath of the fragrance in the air~
Both of them squinted their eyes in enjoyment.
Smelling the increasingly strong smell in the air, Sheng Zhiyi looked at his partner and said with a smile,
"Xixi, this is a great idea. Once we build this earthen stove, we'll have a delicious meal in the future."
Mu Yunxi smiled and nodded, glancing towards the middle of the mountain.
"Well, wait a couple of days, when the bamboo shoots in the back mountain have grown a bit bigger, we can go up there and dig some more."
"Once the dried bamboo shoots are ready, let's send some back home for our family to try."
Sheng Zhiyi looked at his partner, his peach blossom eyes smiling extremely tenderly,
: "Xixi, I'm so happy to be your family." You will always keep them in your heart.
Hearing this, Mu Yunxi looked up at Sheng Zhiyi, then raised her chin slightly, with a smile on her lips, and responded shamelessly,
: "Of course! I really envy you for finding such a good fiancée!"
Sheng Zhiyi's smile became even sweeter, and he responded without thinking,
: "I envy myself too!"
Mu Yunxi looked at his perverted look, covered her lips and chuckled.
: "The contents should be baked, let's take it out!"
Sheng Zhiyi smiled and nodded, asked his partner to step back, and then carefully opened the small wooden door of the earthen oven.
The moment the small wooden door was opened...
The rich aroma of burnt...sweet...and fruity aroma instantly filled my nose...
It's simply an olfactory carnival party.
The extremely tempting and pleasant aroma rushed into the nose, reaching the forehead and heart.
The person who was hooked couldn't help but drool in his mouth.
: "It smells so good~"
Sheng Zhiyi carefully took out the contents and couldn't help but praise it.
Mu Yunxi also looked at the plate of roasted chestnuts with golden flesh exposed, and her eyes brightened a little.
The rich chestnut aroma, mixed with a hint of burnt aroma, makes people very appetizing just by looking at it.
Wait for the sweet potatoes and chestnuts to cool down slightly...
Sheng Zhiyi and Mu Yunxi each began to taste their favorite food.
Sheng Zhiyi held the peeled sweet potato, which was so soft and glutinous that it was almost oozing with oil, his eyes shining.
Take a bite,
The sweet taste instantly blooms in the mouth, the texture is dense, delicate like sand, fragrant and sweet, and it is extremely delicious.
Mu Yunxi also picked up a chestnut and squeezed it gently with her hand. The roasted chestnut shell was a little crispy, and with a "pop", the plump chestnut meat was directly exposed.
The chestnut meat is golden in color. When you put it in your mouth, the first thing you feel is its slight crispness.
Next comes the soft, sweet and fragrant chestnut meat, which has a rich taste with a strong fruity aroma and sweetness.
It has a unique toughness when chewed, which makes people linger on the taste!
It’s as if the entire flavor of autumn is put into your mouth.
"Next time we distribute food, let's exchange some sweet potatoes with the villagers."
Sheng Zhiyi said this after eating the roasted sweet potato in his hand.
Mu Yunxi tasted the roasted sweet potato and nodded with a smile.
"The sweet potatoes grown in the village are really sweet when roasted."
