Having packed all the books and gathered all the things she needed for school, Yunxi was ready to start making lunch for her school lunch.
Nowadays, most people prepare steamed buns made from two kinds of flour, but those with better conditions will certainly eat something better.
Yunxi didn't want to eat anything that didn't taste good. Now that she finally had the chance to eat all sorts of delicious food, she wasn't going to eat less just to keep a low profile.
He immediately took out the cookbook he had bought, intending to cook more food and make rice balls or big steamed buns.
Originally, it was supposed to be steamed buns, but if you stuff vegetables inside, it becomes a big steamed bun, and you can taste the flavors of various vegetables.
Grandpa told her she didn't have to go to work today, so she could have free time in the afternoon. I decided to make a lot of rice balls.
Wash the rice directly and put it in the pot to cook a large pot of rice, enough to last you for ten days or even a month.
While the rice was cooking, Yunxi took out a large bag of flour from her spatial storage. She had used about half of that bag of flour this morning, and then took out another bag, intending to make all of it into big steamed buns.
Let's knead the dough first; it needs to ferment before we can use it.
A full one and a half bags of flour, which adds up to about 70 jin (35 kg), and each bag weighs 50 jin (25 catties), so a full one and a half bags would weigh about 75 jin (37.5 catties).
Looking at all this flour, I used three basins the size of a bathtub to avoid it fermenting; it wouldn't be good to put too much in.
While the food was fermenting, I took out a lot of meat from my spatial storage. For Yunxi right now, meat is the best food, so it's indispensable.
He even found recipes for various pickles in that cookbook. While the other recipes were incomplete due to a lack of ingredients, the recipes for various mushroom pickles were worth trying.
After all, I don't have much of anything, but I have a lot of mushrooms.
You can make mushroom sauce directly by adding lean meat, or you can add cured meat.
According to the book, beef sauce made with beef would taste even better.
Yunxi could only feel it was a pity. She knew how precious the cattle in the village were, and she would never dare to set her sights on them.
In addition, the villagers work so hard, and it is only because of the ox that they can have an easier time. Yunxi felt that she could not do such a thing as slaughtering the ox just because of her appetite.
I've heard that there are wild buffalo in some very remote mountains, even further than the Yunxi Reclaimed Land. It might take another day to reach a particularly deep mountain.
That place is home to not only bison, but also other very rare animals. This is just a rumor that has been circulating for a while, supposedly because an old hunter once went there.
But as the years passed, the deep mountains became increasingly dangerous, fewer and fewer people went there, and ferocious wild animals slowly emerged from within, so no one dared to go anymore.
Yunxi thought that if there were really all kinds of delicious prey, or even wild beef, it wouldn't be a bad idea to venture out.
With her innate wood-elemental abilities, she can still concoct plant essences to repel wild beasts, allowing her to roam freely in deep mountains and forests.
I quietly calculated the time; school is about to start, and there's definitely not enough time for a round trip. The next holiday will probably be during the autumn harvest.
During the autumn harvest, everyone has to work in the fields, so there's no opportunity to go out. The only chance is when school is out for break and the village is in winter.
After all, it's too cold during the winter, and everyone stays at home and doesn't go out at all. If someone leaves on their own, even if they don't come back for ten days or half a month, no one should notice.
I silently made a mental note of this, planning to venture out during summer vacation and experience the legendary, extremely dangerous area.
Since we don't have any beef now, let's make wild boar and mushroom sauce instead. Just add more oil, and it should taste pretty good.
While the rice was still steaming, I took out a lot of meat from my spatial storage, washed it, and chopped it up.
Then they took out a large bowl of the chopped mushrooms from the space, and then took out various seasonings.
Once the rice is ready, we'll start making the meat sauce.
Then we can make rice balls and stuff them with our own homemade meat sauce. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water.
He quickly wiped the non-existent drool from his mouth, deciding to deal with the immediate issue first.
The filling for the rice balls is ready, but the filling for the steamed buns hasn't been prepared yet.
Yunxi was thinking about egg and chive filling buns, lean meat and pickled cowpea filling buns, and also just big meat buns with nothing but meat inside, which would definitely be especially delicious.
I acted on my idea immediately. I quickly took out the chives I had cut a few days ago and washed them again. The quantity wasn't much, but I felt that it would be pretty good if I could make about 30 big buns.
After chopping it up, I cracked about ten eggs into it and then mixed them together.
Fortunately, perhaps because we fed the snails well during this period, all the chickens worked diligently and each gave themselves four eggs a day.
After preparing the egg and chive filling, I quickly made the lean pork and pickled green beans. The jars of pickled green beans I made a while ago were ready to eat, so I opened them today.
After opening it, I took one and put it in my mouth to taste. It was sour and crunchy, quite delicious. I was very satisfied with the pickled green beans I made.
Yunxi plans to store more green beans in her space after they are no longer in season, and then cook some more.
After finishing the pickled cabbage and green beans, I took out a lot of fatty meat, because I felt that big meat buns would be more fragrant if they had more fat.
Once all the minced meat was prepared, and the rice was also ready, Yunxi quickly started to stir-fry the mushrooms in the pot.
Half a pot of mushrooms, stir-fry them until the moisture evaporates, then pack them away.
Then he took out a lot of oil from his space, poured about a bowlful into the pot, and after the oil was heated, he poured in the meat he had just chopped.
There was about ten pounds of meat in total, which was quite a lot. Then, I put in all the seasonings that I had taken out, and after making sure it was cooked, I poured in the mushrooms that I had just prepared.
I initially thought it would be quite greasy, but once the mushrooms went in, they instantly absorbed all the oil, making the amount of oil just right, not at all excessive.
It smells wonderful. I'm glad most people are home alone these days, otherwise even if the nearest neighbor is two or three hundred meters away, I'm worried they might smell such a wonderful aroma.
After all, in those times when food and drink were scarce, almost everyone had a particularly sensitive nose.
With so much oil and so much meat, the flavor was incredibly intense.
