Chapter 21: Boil Salt
The shelter was located under a large tree, and the air was full of fresh air as it was covered with greenery, a salty and wet sea breeze.
The air quality here is excellent, and it is a good place compared to the cities that are full of gunsmoke and polluted by civilization.
Especially when facing the vast blue ocean connected to the sky, your mood will also become lofty and comfortable.
"When you face the unknown, take a brave step, there may be a bright pure land waiting for you, I like this new shelter more and more, the view of the seaside is extremely wide, and there are many useful tools. ”
Xiao Lingfeng picked up the iron bucket on the beach, "Like this, this is an iron bucket of cooking oil, there is no crack or anything like that, I can use it as an iron pot, and these Chinese characters on it look very kind!"
"I've never seen this kind of iron drum in the supermarket, most of the cooking oil is in plastic drums, but this is the first time I've seen an iron drum. ”
"The quality of this vegetable oil is super good, it is generally exported, and it is rarely seen in China. ”
"It's like the organic tea that a certain rich program said, all of which are exported, and few people in China are willing to spend more money to drink this organic tea. ”
"It doesn't matter if this bucket is an outlet or not, now I'll briefly test it to see if it's leaking. Xiao Lingfeng filled the iron bucket with water, "It seems that I have good luck, this iron bucket is not leaky, it can be used as a pot, with it I can make some fish soup!"
"This bucket is used as a pot, it doesn't seem to be very easy to use, it is too thin and it won't take long to burn through. Duan Xuerong held a few worn-out bottles, pursed her lips and said what she was worried about.
Indeed, the power of the flames was so powerful that even stones could be burned and iron could be turned into molten iron, not to mention the iron bucket with a thickness of about 1 millimeter.
"This bucket will crack sooner or later if it is burned on a fire, but it will prolong its life by cutting it through the middle like this. Xiao Lingfeng used a knife to split the iron bucket in two, "Then put the top of the bucket under the iron bucket, which is equivalent to wearing a pair of pants on the iron bucket, with an extra layer of protection!"
"Awesome! The anchor's brain is so good. ”
"There should still be vegetable oil residue in the barrel, which can be scraped out and used. ”
"Just now, the anchor rinsed the iron bucket with water, and the salinity of the seawater is very high, and the role of alkali is to carburetize oil, even if there is vegetable oil residue, it is removed. ”
Xiao Lingfeng cleaned the barrel with sand, "Indeed, as this friend said, the salinity of the seawater is extremely high, and the inside of this bucket is very clean, and there is no vegetable oil residue. ”
After careful searching, the beach is full of sand, and there are no salt-containing plants as desired, and the most important thing now is to make salt.
Yesterday's grilled rays were washed with seawater, which contains more or less salt, but the fishy smell of seawater is strong, and the food is more or less compromised.
"There are still no salty plants around here, now I have an iron bucket, I can make a little sea salt appropriately, sea salt contains alkali, which will cause harm to the human body, but fortunately, our human kidneys have a detoxification effect, and this salt intake must be controlled!"
After that, Xiao Lingfeng began to use the spotlight circle to make the fire, and now that the sun was shining, the fire was quickly ignited.
A simple stove stand was made out of three stones, and the triangular shape was stable and much easier to use.
"Now I'm going to use distillation to get salt, and the water vapor is evaporated by heating the seawater, and all that's left is salt. ”
It didn't take long......
Half a barrel of seawater boiled over the fire, and a large number of pungent smells rose from the iron barrel.
"Are you sure this salt can be delicious?" Duan Xuerong lightly covered her nose, trimming her eyebrows and frowning slightly, the smell of seawater in the iron pot was too pungent.
"Hmm!" Ling Ling also ran over on tiptoe, his pink cheeks distorted a little, "Pickpocket, this smell is so bad......"
"Brother Feng, you can't do this, after the sea water is heated, the taste is very fishy, and the salt boiled out is also very bad. ”
"The anchor still lacks knowledge of daily life, which is different from the rumored almost omnipotence. ”
"Isn't it possible to boil sea salt when you warm seawater?"
"It's sea salt, but the taste of the boiled salt changes, so it smells bad. ”
The live broadcast room is also full of high energy, which is different from ordinary brainless viewing, and they know a lot about some life knowledge.
"I have thought of this, for the removal of odors, human beings have had a way since a long time ago, early human hunting meat only roasted with fire will have a peculiar smell, and then gradually found that many plants can get rid of odors, such as star anise, pepper, cumin and other seasonings slowly into our lives. Xiao Lingfeng picked up the bamboo leaves he had just collected.
"Putting these bamboo leaves into the boiling sea water is like making tea, and the fishy smell of the sea water will be masked by the bamboo leaves, so that the boiled sea salt will not be so fishy. ”
When the emerald green bamboo leaves are put into the boiling seawater, the color of the sea water changes and the smell becomes fragrant.
“666666666”
"Awesome, people have already calculated, and they will prepare bamboo leaves when building a house. ”
"Dad asked me why I was kneeling to watch the live ......"
"Brother Feng is amazing, it turns out that he has long known that seawater boiled salt has a peculiar smell, and he has already prepared bamboo leaves. ”
The amount of seawater in the barrel is about a dozen liters, and it takes a long time to evaporate the water inside, but the amount of sea salt that can be obtained is extremely limited.
After all, the ratio of salt to water in seawater is extremely low......
"Well, the sea will need to boil for a long time, so it's time to explore the island and find some supplies by the way. ”
Xiao Lingfeng added some firewood to the fire, which could supply the flame to burn all the time, and the exploration was estimated to take about two hours.
"I'll go with you too, and I'll take care of the crowds. Duan Xuerong proposed to follow him, after all, no one knew what was on this island.
"Pick up~!Lingling is going too!" Lingling blinked his big clear eyes like black gems, with a look of anticipation.
Lingling's move once again overwhelmed everyone in the live broadcast room......
Xiao Lingfeng stroked the little girl's little head and smiled slightly. "Daddy won't leave you, let's explore this island together!"
"Uh-huh!" the little girl nodded again and again, and a smile appeared on her pink little face, "It's the best to pick up!"
"Your daughter is so cute......" Duan Xuerong also stroked Lingling's little head, with a doting face.
"You bad woman of rice, don't touch my head!"
