Chapter 209
The weather in November gradually became cooler. The autumn air was clear and crisp but also very dry. Su Miao always felt static electricity when she combed her hair every day.
The frizzy ponytail and the loose hair made her look like a little lion, so she changed the ponytail into a bun. Wang Xin saw her from a distance at the school gate and ran over to call her.
"Su Miao! You tied your hair wrong! You have to split it in two to look like Nezha."
After saying that, without waiting for her reaction, he made a face and ran away.
Su Miao said to Ye Jiayin speechlessly: "Why don't you tell his parents about his score manipulation?"
Ye Jiayin smiled and shook his head: "Forget it, he will make more trouble then."
More and more customers come to the store to eat shenggun porridge, and the self-service porridge can be temporarily removed by the end of December.
Su Miao looked at the milk that had just been delivered and suddenly had the idea of making milk tea to drink.
Milk tea is also known as milk tea. In her previous life, a roommate from Inner Mongolia made it for them once. It was really fragrant, but it was salty, so she was not used to it.
At that time, there were already a few milk tea shops on the street, but they used powder packets to make tea. She liked the sweet taste, but she always felt that it was not as fragrant as the tea made directly with milk.
The only milk tea she had in this life was at the tea restaurant in the city center. The talkative boss would always talk to her while making it, and he wasn't afraid of being cheated on.
She recalled the process of the tea restaurant owner making milk tea. It seemed that he had to do this and that, and also stir the tea and so on. It was really not too simple. She could only try it first.
The first step is to boil tea. Su Miao took out a can of black tea from the cabinet. This was a New Year's gift from Brother Xiaopang during the Chinese New Year. Her family didn't usually drink tea, but now they finally had it.
Put the tea leaves into a small bag that you usually use to hold spices to make tea bags. Boil water in a small pot, then add the tea bags and simmer for 5 minutes.
Ye Jiayin came over with the wrong answer book, and saw Su Miao squatting in front of the small stove, "poking" with chopsticks, so she asked: "Miao Miao, are you cooking?"
"Sister Jiayin! I'm making milk tea!"
"Milk tea? Is it milk tea? The kind you get at tea restaurants or the kind with fried rice?"
"It's the kind from a tea restaurant. I like sweet drinks. Let me try making it. Sister Jiayin, please move away. I'm about to start stirring the tea, and the tea might splash out."
Su Miao took out the tea bag and put it into another small pot, then poured boiling hot tea into it.
When pouring, lift it higher so that the tea forms a stream of water that "hit" the tea bag.
At first she was a little hesitant, but after practicing a few times she became familiar with it and her pull became higher and higher.
Ye Jiayin asked curiously: "Is this called tea-shaking? What's the principle?"
"The owner of the tea restaurant said it was to reduce the bitterness of the tea and make the milk tea taste smoother."
Su Miao put the milk into the pot and heated it on low heat, added sugar and stirred it until it melted, then mixed it with the tea, and then pulled it several times using the tea-bumping technique.
"Miaomiao, doesn't this milk need to be boiled?"
"Actually, I don't know either. I just wonder if boiling milk will lose its nutrients."
"It's okay, the difference shouldn't be that big."
The finished milk tea was divided into two cups. Su Miao took a sip. Hmm? It tastes good!
Ye Jiayin also liked it and said, "This milk tea is delicious. Although it tastes a little different from the one in the tea restaurant, it's still just as delicious."
"Yeah, the owner of the tea restaurant said he wanted to make it into evaporated milk or something. I don't quite understand, but it's probably this step that makes the taste different."
Su Miao took a few more sips and felt his mouth was a little empty. It would be nice if he had some snacks to chew with the tea.
Suddenly, an idea came to me. I took out the black jelly from the refrigerator, cut it into small pieces, put it in the bowl, and ate it with a spoon.
After making milk tea, Su Miao and Ye Jiayin thought about making other dairy products. Another most representative dairy dessert should be double skin milk.
But there is only so much milk in a bottle, and you can’t do more if you move once.
So Su Miao called the milk station and asked if they had large bottles.
The site currently does not have large bottles, but they can help order them from the dairy factory. A one-liter bottle costs 1.2 yuan, which is much cheaper than the usual 200 ml small bottle.
When the milkman brought the milk into the store, the regular customers were stunned and laughed at Su Yuanzheng.
"Xiao Su, you must have spent a lot of money to make Miaomiao grow taller. Your stomach will explode if you drink so much milk in one day."
"Is Miaomiao not tall enough? I think she's already much taller than her peers. We can't expect her to grow to 1.85 meters like you, that would be too scary."
"Why not? When you grow to 1.85 meters tall, you can play basketball and volleyball and win glory for your country."
"Miaomiao is such a good student. Becoming a scientist would bring glory to the country. Being an athlete is too hard!"
…
When Su Miao came home from school and saw the big bottle of milk her father put in the refrigerator, she was instantly happy. She wanted to make more double skin milk for everyone in the family to try.
Ye Jiayin changed her clothes and came over to squat beside Su Miao. Although she didn't know how to do it, she could still cheer her on.
It is not difficult to make double skin milk, but it is easy to make. If you don’t use the right technique, you will fail.
Pour the milk into a small pot and heat it, but do not boil it, otherwise it will be difficult to form milk skin.
Su Miao poured the heated milk into small bowls. As the milk slowly cooled, a layer of wrinkled milk skin formed on the surface.
This milk is indeed very pure and of good quality, with less water and more fat. It is particularly fragrant and forms a thick milk skin quickly.
While waiting, take another empty bowl, put two egg whites and two spoons of sugar in it, and stir until the sugar dissolves.
Then use a knife to cut an opening in the milk skin, slowly pour the milk into the large bowl containing egg white, stir evenly, but there should be a layer of milk at the bottom of the bowl.
Pass the mixed milk through a sieve to remove the foam and impurities on the surface.
Pour the milk slowly along the edge of the bowl through the gap in the milk skin you just cut. In theory, the milk skin will float up by itself.
However, Su Miao was a bit conservative in his technique. The cuts in two bowls were not big enough, and the milk skin was pressed underneath.
Fortunately, most of them are successful. Then steam it in a pot for ten minutes, and the soft, smooth and fragrant double skin milk is ready.
It was the first time for Ye Jiayin to see double skin milk being made. She found it very interesting, like doing a chemistry experiment.
I scooped a spoonful and tasted it. The thin skin on the top was soft, and the milk foam on the bottom was dense. The sweetness was moderate, and the milk flavor was mellow without being too sweet.
"Miao Miao! You made this double skin milk so well! It's exactly the same as the one in the tea restaurant!"
I made several bowls of double skin milk and put them in the refrigerator first. The taste is different after refrigeration.
After closing the stall that day, everyone at Su Ji was given a bowl of double-skin milk, which was undoubtedly a huge hit. Yingzi loved the taste and asked Su Miao, "Miaomiao, this double-skin milk is so good, do you want to sell it in the store? And the milk tea you made yesterday was delicious, too."
Su Miao thought about it, then looked up and saw the smiling lady working at the convenience store across from her. She shook her head and said, "Let's not sell it yet. It's impossible to make all the money. When we open a branch later, we can set up a special window for desserts and drinks, and have dedicated people to do just that."
