Chapter 225
The weather these days has been slow for the dough to rise, so Yu Sui is not in a hurry. After making the pastry, he picks all the ripe peppers in the pot.
After a winter, and with the occasional natural magic of Yu Sui Nian to nourish them, the peppers planted in the pots have begun to mature. Each pepper has grown as big as a pointed horn, piled up next to each other, and looks particularly beautiful in red.
The peppers grew too tall, and seeing that the weather had improved, Yu Sui simply moved them and the onions and garlic outside.
This pepper is big and spicy, and has a strong unique aroma. When the ripe peppers are picked, there are still many small ones left, which shows that it won't be long before another batch matures.
As a person who loves spicy food, Yu Sui's eyes lit up when he saw so many bright red peppers.
In addition to drying them to make dried chilies, there are many ways to eat fresh chilies. These days, the tribe has started fishing in the river again. Every time Yu Sui eats a big fish head, he can't help but miss the fresh and delicious chopped pepper fish head.
The braised fish head is delicious, but it is slightly inferior to the spicy taste of the chopped pepper fish head.
There are two types of chopped pepper sauce, one is a fresher chopped pepper sauce, and the other is red oil chopped pepper sauce with oil added. Yu Sui has a strong taste and prefers the chili sauce with red oil flavor. Adding a little bit of it to noodles or cooking tastes very good.
After removing the stems of the freshly picked peppers, Yu Sui took out the crusher and put the peppers and the washed and peeled garlic into the crusher to grind them.
When using a grinder to grind chili and garlic, be sure not to make them too fine. If the particles are too small, the taste will not be good enough.
Everything here is served in generous portions, and the chopped pepper sauce is no exception.
Yu Sui brought out a huge ceramic jar that looked like a water tank, put the chopped chili and garlic into it, then added salt and sugar, and finally added white wine and stirred it evenly, so that the chili sauce would not spoil.
The mouth of the jar must also be sealed well, and it can be eaten after about twenty days.
After making the chopped pepper sauce, although Yu Sui did not chop the peppers by hand, after handling so many peppers, he always felt that the air was full of spicy flavor.
These are the first batch of peppers picked. The subsequent peppers are spicier than the previous ones. It is probably because they have used too much natural magic and the peppers have excess nutrients.
The peppers he planted were all seeds taken from dried peppers he exchanged with human caravans. The size of those peppers was about the same as the chili peppers he had eaten in his previous life. Who would have thought that the ones he planted would be the same size as big pointed peppers.
Not only is it so big, it also tastes so spicy. Yu Sui likes it very much. This kind of pepper is a good and dedicated pepper.
Yu Sui picked up a heavy jar full of chopped pepper sauce and put it in the cellar. He accidentally glanced at the ceramic jars of pickled eggs and then remembered that there were so many pickled eggs that he had not eaten. He had been too busy recently and forgot about them after putting them in the cellar.
Originally, the pickled eggs could be eaten after more than 30 days, but they have been kept for nearly two months. Fortunately, the temperature in the cellar is low, otherwise they would have probably become rotten.
Yu Sui opened a can and smelled it closely. Fortunately, there was no strange smell. Fortunately, when he first pickled the eggs, he was afraid that they would freeze if left outside at night, so he put them in the cellar. Otherwise, the temperature is rising now, and they would really go bad if left outside for two months.
He fished out a large bowl full of pickled eggs (actually all kinds of eggs) and couldn't wait to serve it.
Boil water in a pot. When the water boils, pour the eggs in, cover the pot and cook them. The pickled eggs take longer to cook than fresh eggs.
Just then he remembered it, so he simply went down and fished out two more jars of salted eggs and put them in the pot to cook.
Cooked salted eggs can also serve as dry food for eating on the road, and they taste good with sesame seed cakes.
When it was cooked, Yu Sui picked a green duck egg and tasted it. He gently broke the slightly hot salted duck egg open, and the red oil inside kept oozing out. He couldn't resist the temptation and tasted the egg yolk. The salty and fragrant egg yolk tasted like golden sand, and his mouth was full of oil. It was really a success.
Of course, this is also because the leather of the raw materials is too hard. In my previous life, I pickled duck eggs I bought, and the taste was far worse than the salted duck eggs in my hand.
It is indeed good for the tribe to be rich. There is no shortage of salt and food. You can bring plenty of dry food when you go on a long journey. Thinking back to the last time we went to the beach, Yu Sui and others had only seasonings and dried meat on them, and they didn't even have a bag of flour.
The salted egg tasted good when eaten alone, but it was a little salty. Yu Sui couldn't stand it after eating half of it, and drank water with a grimace.
His daily drinking water is now summoned by water magic. He used to drink river water with his tribesmen, and later he drank well water from a well in his yard. But one time, out of curiosity, Yu Sui tasted the water summoned by magic and found that this water tasted even clearer and sweeter than well water, and was quite delicious.
In other words, he hasn't found any tea leaves yet. It would be a shame not to use this water, which is comparable to high mountain cold spring water, to make tea.
At this time, the dough bathed in the warm sunshine began to rise. Yu Sui started with the dough that was kneaded the earliest, found a chopping board and a rolling pin, and rolled out a large piece of dough until it was rolled into a large round cake.
After working hard for a whole day, Yu Sui gritted his teeth as he rolled out the noodles. How could this job be more tiring than clearing land? He looked around and saw that he had mixed nearly twenty basins of dough that he had prepared that day. A rough calculation showed that there were several thousand kilograms of dough. No wonder he could hardly lift his arms.
He had just started to bake his first batch of pancakes, and rolling out the pancakes required the strength of his arms, so Yu Sui couldn't help but feel a little worried.
He just wanted Qi and the others to have better food on the road, but he was a little too impatient. If he had known it would be so tiring, he should have done it slowly or found a helper. Now, he almost died of exhaustion.
Thinking of this, Yu Sui couldn't help but begin to admire the snow wolves and dwarves working in the cafeteria. They needed to cook several times more meals every day than he did this time, and it was all physical work.
"Little Patriarch, why didn't I see you go out today?"
From a distance, before anyone appeared in front of the courtyard gate, Blue's loud voice came first.
Yu Sui happily jumped up, holding up a rolling pin. "Bruce, why are you here? Aren't you learning how to dig a well?"
As he finished speaking, Blue walked in and looked at the basins scattered on the floor in surprise. "Oh, the last well has been dug. The dwarves are installing the water pressure device. We don't understand that either. We can just trade with you for food when the time comes."
He lifted the lid of one of the basins and looked inside, then said in surprise, "How did you mix so much dough? Are you going to make us a delicious meal yourself again? Why don't you cook in the cafeteria? The kitchen there is bigger, so you don't have to cook in the yard. Luckily, there's no wind today, otherwise all the dirt would have been blown into the dough."
