Yunxi raised her hand and looked at the time on her watch; it was already midnight.
If I were to cook another pot, it would be around 2 or 3 a.m. when I go to bed.
Finally, he thought he might as well cook another pot. He was worried that some people with particularly sensitive noses might smell it when they slept at night. If word got out tomorrow, people would definitely take it to heart if he cooked it again next time.
I might as well cook a larger batch this time, and then cook it every few months in the future. That way, not many people will notice the overpowering aroma.
After making up his mind, he immediately took action. He first took out a large vat from his spatial storage and poured all the braised food from the two pots into the vat, filling it to the brim.
It seems this large water vat can hold quite a lot; it can hold about 70 or 80 kilograms of food, plus some brine. It really can hold a lot.
This time, Yunxi was worried that the ordeal would take too long and she wouldn't even have time to sleep.
So she directly put boiling water from her space, because boiling water makes blanching faster.
After blanching them, take them out, change the water, and then add the seasoning packet to cook.
This time, Yunxi added another seasoning packet to each of the braised pork dishes. She plans not to add new seasoning packets next time, as the braising liquid can still be used. If she is worried about not having enough salt, she can just add more salt.
It's such a waste to put the seasoning packet back in every time you cook.
I heard from the grocery store owner that it can be cooked up to five times, but by the fifth time, it won't taste as good.
That's understandable. If it always tasted the same when you cooked it, how would they make any money?
After everything is done, all that's left is to wait two hours before you can put it away.
Yunxi felt that cooking this meat would be a waste of firewood, so she would always bring some back whenever she saw firewood while cutting pig feed on the mountain.
Otherwise, if I continue to waste firewood like this, half the firewood in the woodshed will probably be gone in no time.
While waiting for the meat to be ready, Yunxi's hands were also busy, constantly fiddling with the clothes in her hands according to the recipe she remembered.
As her needlework skills improved, she sewed faster and faster, almost without noticing, and the clothes were nearly finished.
It took about four hours to finish making that garment. After shaking it a few times and feeling that it wasn't so wrinkled anymore, I quickly picked it up to take a look.
There seemed to be nothing wrong with it; it should be a successful piece of clothing. Yunxi felt that she was really amazing, but she also benefited from the original girl's fame.
After all, the little girl already knew how to make clothes and shoes, so her body had muscle memory, and she didn't find it difficult to make them herself.
I glanced at the pot over there; the smell was already quite strong. I quickly put all the finished clothes and tools into the winnowing basket, and then took out a large vat from my spatial storage.
After putting all the meat from the iron pot into the large vat, it was stored in the spatial dimension.
It's still warm now, and when we take it out to eat later, it will taste just like it came out of the pot.
I quickly washed the two pots and then put them back into my spatial storage. As for the temporary stove, I could only leave it here for the time being.
I plan to collect them tomorrow.
After cleaning everything up, Yunxi checked her watch and it was already past three in the morning.
It would be dawn in about two more hours, so I quickly grabbed her little winnowing basket and went straight into the house.
Just as Yunxi was about to go to bed, she suddenly realized she hadn't taken a shower.
After thinking about it, I realized that I hadn't taken a shower after a busy day. So I took out a wooden basin, filled it with warm water from my storage space, and wiped my body.
I also changed my clothes; from now on, this basin will be for my own use only.
I washed the clothes as well and hung them directly under the eaves, planning to hang them in the yard tomorrow.
I smelled myself; the aroma of braised meat was still there. It seems I should avoid others when I go up the mountain tomorrow, or maybe I should take a good shower and use plenty of soap to wash away the smell of braised meat.
After tossing and turning for a while, my eyes felt like they were about to close, so I quickly lay down on the kang (a heated brick bed) and prepared to go to sleep early.
Yunxi felt like she hadn't slept for very long when she heard the rooster crowing in the backyard, as if she had just fallen asleep and been woken up.
Yunxi sat up groggily, feeling utterly exhausted. She decided that she shouldn't stay up late whenever she had free time.
Even if I need to cook meat in the future, I'll go deep into the mountains and forests. That way it's safer and I won't have to sacrifice my sleep.
Get out of bed and quickly wash up, brush your teeth and wash your face.
The water was quite cold in the morning, especially the water that had just been drawn from the well. When it was poured on my face, I felt a chill run through me and I was instantly wide awake.
I no longer felt sleepy at all. I shook my head and touched my face; it felt smooth and soft.
However, just in case, I plan to use my wood-type ability to extract the essence of some medicinal herbs while cutting pig feed today, specifically the essence of herbs that are good for the skin, to give my skin a good nourishment.
Although we are still young, we should grow up to be little beauties and become great beauties.
After washing up, I went to the backyard, fed the chickens, and glanced at the basket to see if there were any eggs.
Seeing that there weren't any eggs inside, I knew the hens hadn't laid any yet. By the time I came back at noon, they should have already laid them all.
I went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast and thought about the white rice I ate yesterday, which was quite delicious.
Today she wanted to try making noodles from wheat flour again. Although she had already eaten plain noodles made from wheat flour at the stalls in town, she had never tried making noodles herself.
Kneading and rolling out the dough takes quite a bit of time; it took about half an hour to roll out the noodles.
Yunxi felt that she was just not skilled enough yet, and that it wouldn't take her so long once she became more proficient.
I took out a bottle each of the oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar I bought yesterday. I thought that using lard would make the noodles taste better, since it would be more fragrant. But yesterday I was so busy making clothes and braising meat that I forgot to render the lard.
