Chapter 156
Unfortunately, in this era, people still mostly eat sour bread, and wealthy families will add sugar.
The pure alkaline buns made by Yu Sui are snow-white and delicate. Kneading them into dough can effectively eliminate the sour taste. He plans to make more next year. After the food supply increases, the canteen will also start making pasta. He can't bear to let his people eat sour buns.
Berea nodded, not quite understanding. After all, it had been a long time since she last came into contact with leavened food. However, she still remembered that dough without sugar did taste sour, and dough made with fermented grape juice was even more sour.
Minotaur is not afraid of hard things, so in Berea's mind, that sour bread is not as good as black bread. Of course, the steamed buns that Xuer brought back last night were more delicious. They were not sour at all, and only had the aroma of wheat.
Berea was surprised to hear Yu Sui say that food made with this grayish-white powder would not turn sour.
The next step is to knead the dough. The more dough is kneaded, the more distinct the layers of the steamed buns will be. In the past life, there was a region where people specialized in making thousand-layer steamed buns. The layers were so fragrant. I tasted them once.
Berea took the initiative to start kneading the dough. She was very good at it. In the past, the Tauren did not have stone mills, and the flour they ground was not so fine. The black bread she made was very delicious.
Seeing Berea's skillful movements, Yu Sui was unable to get started. In fact, as long as you know how to knead the dough, it is very easy to learn how to make the dough ferment. He just took advantage of the fact that he knew more.
I kept pressing tofu in the kitchen today. The whole kitchen was warm and the dough rose quickly.
After Berea kneaded the dough, they sat together and chatted for a while. Yu Sui ran to the kitchen to check every once in a while. When he ran over for the third time, the dough had risen to twice its size.
In fact, if Yu Sui hadn't been so impatient that he always wanted to lift the lid to take a look, the dough would have risen twice as fast. As soon as he lifted the lid, the air conditioner ran in.
I'll ask the dwarves to make some transparent glass lids someday, whether they are for pots or basins, so that people who cook can observe at any time.
"Aunt Berea, this is about right. If you let it rise any longer, it will taste sour. If you forget to let it rise too much, add some of this. Don't add too much, or it will turn yellow and bitter."
Yu Sui pointed to the dough in the basin and said to Berea, and handed Chun Alkali to her and gave her some instructions.
When he was little, he often ate yellow steamed buns made by his grandmother, who accidentally added too much alkali. He thought they had a special aroma and even pestered her to make yellow buns. Only when he grew up did he realize it was because she had added too much alkali...
Berea nodded, memorized the appearance of the dough, and carefully put the pure alkali that Yu Sui gave her into her pocket.
Yu Sui asked Berea to deflate the dough. The dough was too big, so Yu Sui asked her to separate the dough and roll it into large pancakes. He evenly brushed the pancakes with the pastry made by Yu Sui with a ratio of 1:1.5 of flour and oil, rolled it up along the edge of the pancake, and then divided it into small pieces and pressed them into pancakes.
He also kept some dough for steaming buns. Berea was not there last night and did not see Yu Sui steaming the buns, so he used these as a demonstration for her.
Boil water in a ceramic pot to steam the buns, heat an iron pan, brush a thin layer of oil on it, put the dough into the pan, wait for bubbles to appear on the upward side, then turn it over.
The leavened bread is cooked when it puffs up. Place the golden and crispy round bread on a plate. Even with slight movements, some crumbs still fall off, which shows how crispy it is.
If you don't add pastry, the leavened bread will be a thick and soft bread, but this one has many layers and a soft and crispy crust.
"The dough kneaded in this way can also be put into the oven to bake into bread. It is softer than brown bread and tastes better." Yu Sui said, holding the dough.
He actually knew something about baking. Although he had never succeeded, he had learned a lot of theoretical knowledge.
After all, ever since technology and cooking were exposed to the public, Yu Sui and his friends have tried to learn to cook as much as possible by themselves, and his cooking skills have improved greatly since then.
Making bread by hand is difficult. Yu Sui was still working at the time and didn’t want to spend all his time kneading dough during his only few days off, so he spent a lot of money to buy a bread maker.
He also remembered that if he made bread by hand, he needed to knead the dough into a glove-like film and add butter to make it fluffier. It would also be best to brush a layer of egg yolk liquid on the surface to make the baked bread look better, etc.
The conditions in the orc world do not allow it, and there is no butter. Only glove membrane is a piece of cake for the Tauren. The dough that Berea just kneaded is probably about the same.
But the minotaurs are not picky eaters, and this simple toast is much more delicious than the black bread they usually eat.
Berea listened very seriously, and her eyes looking at Yu Sui became softer and softer, and she followed Yu Sui in making pancakes.
The big iron pot in the Orc World was much more suitable for her to use than Yu Sui. Yu Sui had a hard time reaching the pancake in the center of the pot with a shovel, and had to stand on tiptoe. Berea couldn't bear to watch, so she took the shovel and flipped the pancake over with ease.
Yu Sui secretly glanced at Bereya, who was two heads taller than him. The villain in his heart knelt down and cried bitterly. When will he grow taller too?
After traveling through time, Yu Sui ate a lot. The tribesmen picked the best food for him. With enough nutrition, he finally grew a little taller, about two centimeters, and was not conspicuous at all among the snow wolves.
The orcs' long lifespan is an advantage, but they are also reincarnated as cubs, and their slow growth is really a pity.
The original owner's physique was not as good as that of people of the same age, and Yu Sui was always worried that it would affect his height. Even though he was a little taller than he was in his previous life, this was the world of orcs, and people would be laughed to death if they were not even 1.8 meters tall.
Yu Sui was teaching here, and Chief Xiuer and the Snow Wolf people had a great time. The prepared leavened bread and steamed buns were eaten up in no time. Especially Notting, who helped to grind flour after being beaten. Yu Sui couldn't bear it and gave him a few more bread, and Notting was very happy.
Afraid that Berea wouldn't be able to learn it in one go, he decided to help her to the end. Under Yu Sui's supervision, Berea made several more bowls of dough by herself, and Yu Sui taught her how to make buns, steamed buns and steamed cakes.
It was the first time for Berea to discover that food could be made in so many ways. She was amazed and tried hard to remember all the steps taught by Yu Sui.
Fortunately, Sui took this issue into consideration and taught her simple food.
On this day, the wooden house where the snow werewolves lived was filled with the aroma of food from morning to night, making the other orcs with a keen sense of smell suffer terribly.
Chief Xiuer gave Yu Sui 5 million kilograms of grain and 500,000 kilograms of vegetables. They could not take so much back. Yu Sui originally planned to ask the warriors to make another trip, but Chief Xiuer waved his hand and directly sent Blue and Jerry to help them transport the food.
