Chapter 297: Homemade Rock Sugar Gourd (II)

In addition to Yan'er, the guy who is stealing food on the side, there are a few foodies next to him who are also very restless.

As soon as Jin Yang took out all those delicious fruits and other ingredients, he was smelled by the few guys in the house who had a sensitive nose, and without anyone saying anything, a few foodies rushed over from different places in the villa.

Anyway, the kitchen space of the villa is very large, and the overlord, marshmallow, Andy, and stupid melon, these guys will not seem a little crowded when they stay inside.

The fruits that have not been washed are stacked in baskets, and they are placed on the left side of Jinyang in rows, and after he washes one, he will put them in the basket on the right, waiting for the next step.

Only Yan'er dared to eat the cleaned fruit, and she wouldn't eat the unwashed fruit, so she was the only one sitting next to the basket on the right.

But they don't care about this kind of thing, they don't care at all, as long as they have something to eat, you saw that wild animal picked an apple and washed it by the river before eating?

If you really want to do that, you will starve to death.

Andy this guy has its unique physical advantages, according to the ugly words, it is a little white face who can only sell cute, whenever there is something delicious, it only needs to stretch out two little paws to sell cute, and it can easily achieve its purpose in the hostess.

This will be no exception, seeing the little guy coming, before it sells cute, Yan'er picked it up, hugged it tightly in his arms, and the stolen little fruit was naturally sent to its mouth.

The overlords are not so good, they can only rely on themselves, and when Jin Yang is not paying attention, they secretly steal a few with their claws, and then quickly stuff them into their mouths and eat them, leaving no traces.

Jin Yang knew about Yan'er and the behavior of these guys, and he saw it in his eyes, he just didn't understand, he just didn't understand, he just ate it if he wanted to, and he couldn't afford it, so he could steal it?

We have a lot of space for fruits, and we are worried that we can't finish eating, and if you have the ability, you can make it, and you can finish it.

However, since Yan'er and the overlord wanted to eat secretly like this, he had to pretend not to know to satisfy their (them) pleasure of stealing food.

Maybe it's really a little more fragrant than eating it openly!

When the cleaning is finished, the core of the fruit is removed, and the big ones are cut into pieces, and then all the bamboo skewers are worn into strings, anyway, the style should look like that.

Put these strings of fruits aside, and the next thing is to boil the sugar, the ratio chosen by Jinyang is 1:1, that is, rock sugar, white sugar, and space honey, which together are the same as the amount of water, and then put them all into the pot together.

Turn the fire to the maximum, watch the flames lick the bottom of the pot fiercely, and the next thing is to wait.

Yan'er said, "Why don't you use a 2:1 ratio?

The water has not yet boiled, Jin Yang said while paying attention to the temperature change of the water: "This is actually okay, the key is that the speed will be faster, anyway, our materials are good, you can rest assured, it will definitely be delicious when it is made." ”

After chatting for a while, the water boiled, and the rock sugar and white sugar all melted after a while, boiling very much, and the sugar had already foamed a lot, like a light golden beer, and the color was very beautiful.

Take out a pair of chopsticks, stir the sugar in the pot to prevent the phenomenon of pasting the pot due to uneven heating, and turn the heat down a little, probably on medium heat, otherwise it will be troublesome to burn dry.

By the time of more than twenty minutes, there was very little water, and the bubbles from the sugar had become dense and fine, and the color looked more brilliant and darker, like amber honey.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Jin Yang took out his chopsticks and dipped them in the syrup, and then gently pulled them up, looked carefully at the slight silk coming out, nodded secretly, it should be considered good, turned off the fire, and quickly put this pot of syrup on the other stove on the side.

If the sugar is boiled for too long, the color will turn brown, and if the silk can be clearly pulled out, it means that the sugar has been burnt and has lost its original sweetness. Moreover, try not to blow the wind when boiling the sugar, so as to make the sugar color translucent.

Therefore, the heat is very important.

If the fire is underfired, the sugar foams, and the gourd dipped in it becomes a paste, and the appearance is not transparent; it is too hot, the sugar color is heavy, and the entrance is slightly bitter, and it is not allowed to be eaten. Copper pots should be used to boil sugar, and copper pots are the best to ensure that the color of the sugar is clear and not muddy, but unfortunately there is no copper pot in Jinyang, so it has to be replaced by ordinary pots.

These knowledge were all learned in the video just now, but this pot is a little lacking because of the lack of experience, but it's not bad, after all, it's the first time.

Seeing that he seemed to be boiled after just one glance, Yan'er asked curiously on the side: "How do you know that it is boiled? I see that the host in the video just now seems to have dipped his chopsticks in the sugar, and then put it in his mouth and tasted it, and tried it several times in a row before saying that it was boiled, don't you need to taste it? This is too hasty, right?"

She was a little puzzled, she also watched the same video, and even the time was the same, but why is this gap so big? She still thinks that it is not easy to make sugar gourds, but it seems that Jinyang's appearance is simpler, is this an IQ problem?

You're not that stupid, are you?

Seeing her careful thinking at a glance, Jin Yang said helplessly: "I often cook, and I study these things almost every day, and you can't even make egg fried rice, what do you say?"

This is called specialization in the art industry, not sloppy!

You practice yoga every day, you know a lot about this stuff, and now you let me practice yoga to make your big teeth laugh, that's the difference. ”

Saying in his mouth, but his hand was not slow, the cutting board on the side had already been prepared, Jin Yang smeared a layer of space spring water on it with his hand, put it aside for later use, and then tilted the pot full of syrup slightly, so that all the hawthorn and other fruits could be dipped in sugar.

Gently turn the skewers of hawthorn and other fruits on the foam of the boiled hot sugar, wrap it in a thin layer, and then quickly put it on the prepared water plate to cool, about two or three minutes later, a bunch of sweet and sour rock sugar gourds is considered successful.

When dipping sugar, the action must be fast, and the sugar will cool down and solidify if it is slow. Dipping sugar requires skill, and if the sugar is wrapped too thickly, it will affect the taste. Sugar should be dipped in a thin and even layer to be delicious.

The rock sugar gourd made by experts is clean and beautiful, crystal clear, crispy in the mouth, not sticky to teeth, and not sticky to sand when dropped on the ground. Boiling sugar and rolling sugar are all handicrafts.

A skilled master can dip a pound of sugar into more than 30 strings of sugar gourds. The gourd dipped in sugar was taken out, and he slammed it the board, snapped, and left it to dry. When it cools, there will be a large crystal clear sugar flake on one side of the rock sugar gourd, which is very beautiful.

It's a pity that Jinyang is a half-way monk, and the rock sugar gourd made can only be said to be okay, and it can't be talked about if it looks good.

Fortunately, he is not ready to make a living from this, and it doesn't matter if it looks good or not, as long as it's delicious. If the technology is not at home, the rock sugar gourd made may not taste so crispy, and it may stick to the teeth, but with a space material as the foundation, I believe the taste will not be bad.
