Chapter 195: Acorns
The firewood crackled in the fire, and the huge eel was cut into several pieces, which were pierced with sticks and stuck diagonally in front of the fire.
The fish has few bones, the meat is delicate, and when grilled, the meat is full of bright fat, but it will take some time before it is fully mature.
Duan Xuerong held her delicate and fair face in both hands, her big eyes flickered and stared at the grilled fish above the fire, her upturned nose was inhaling the fragrance all the time, and she had swallowed more than 20 mouthfuls of saliva since the beginning of the grilled fish.
Seeing the embarrassment of his sister, Xiao Lingfeng shook his head and said, "In fact, the more you watch the food production, the more painful the process becomes, especially when you are very hungry, you can do something else to divert your attention, and when other things are ready, the food will naturally be cooked, and you will eat it directly later." ”
The girl glanced at him and said, "What you said is light, I just want to fill my stomach now, I shouldn't have eaten that little fish roe just now, and now I'm even hungrier!"
It's not just Duan Xuerong who is hungry, Lingling is also hungry, if it weren't for the girl pulling her, this little Lori would probably be able to pounce directly and nibble on the half-cooked fish to eat.
"That's it, Lingling is also super hungry, and the speed of cooking is too slow!" Xiao Lori also stared at Xiao Lingfeng with a reproachful face.
it!
What happened to these two women today?
Why are you scolding me together?
And it's still madness!!
"While the grilled fish is still cooked, we can make some delicious acorn sauce to eat first!" Xiao Lingfeng poured out the acorns he had picked up in his backpack.
"Oh!" Duan Xuerong stared at the acorns on the ground, "I've forgotten these acorns, but isn't this what pine trees love to eat?"
There are very few acorns sold in China, most of them are melon seeds, peanuts, walnuts and chestnuts, etc., but this kind of thing is indeed a very delicious dried fruit, but it is a little troublesome to handle.
Xiao Lingfeng said, "Acorns are one of the most important foods in early human beings, acorns are hard shell on the outside, brown-red, and the inner kernels are like peanut kernels, rich in starch, with a content of about 60%. It is not only edible, but also can be used as a raw material for sizing in the textile industry. So acorns are not lethal toxins. ”
"But some acorns, especially the black acorns of this red oak that I picked up, contain a lot of tannins that can be bitter when eaten directly without treatment, while white oak has a lower tannin content and a sweeter taste that can be eaten raw or cooked. ”
When explaining the acorns, most of the officials began to rage the barrage......
"What do you do with poisonous acorns in the wilderness? Could it be that you have some other tools for dealing with them?"
"The way to eliminate toxins is generally to use 84 disinfectant, our school's tap water is this smell, now that the weekend is closed, the water in the house does not have the taste of 84, and you can't drink it directly." ”
"You can add a little laundry detergent or dish soap to the water, I think it should taste like 84. ”
"Wouldn't it be cooler to add dichlorvos and herbicides, huhu~!"
"Acorns themselves are non-toxic, Brother Feng said that they contain tannins, but what are these tannins?
"Tannins are one of the two phenolic compounds contained in wine, especially in red wine, which is beneficial for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases. The tannins in wine are usually fermented from the maceration of grape seeds, skins and stems, or from the extraction of the tannins in oak barrels. ”
The amount of tannins determines the flavor, structure and texture of a wine. Red wines lacking tannins have a light texture and do not have a thick feel, as exemplified by Bojolais.
Red wines with rich tannins can be stored for many years and gradually develop a rich and delicate aging flavor. When the mouth feels dry and the oral mucosa feels wrinkled, that's when the tannins are at work.
The basic method of acorn is to boil it for a long time and change the water to remove the tannins contained in it, and after cooking, it can be eaten directly.
Usually people eat acorn noodles, pick up acorns from the mountains and dry them, remove the hard shells, grind the flesh into a fine powder, and sift away the coarse residue. Boil a pot of water, pour in acorn powder when it boils slightly, stir well, wait until it thickens and solidifies, take it out and let it cool, and cut it into cubes.
"Then how do we get rid of the tannins in the acorns?" Duan Xuerong asked.
"We can soak it in hot water and change it a few times to absorb the tannins in the acorns, which saves time and effort. Xiao Lingfeng replied.
The crowd in the live broadcast room coaxed again.
"It's okay to heat it, provided that you have a pot, Brother Feng, just a broken kettle and your sister's heat. ”
"The so-called heating is not only for the pot, in fact, it is also heated when placed in the sun, and it is also heated when thrown directly into the fire to roast. ”
"I knew that Brother Feng was going to start making pots again, so I waited quietly for Brother Feng's performance without saying anything. ”
"Okay, Brother Feng, you can start pretending to be forced and make a pot here for everyone to see. ”
"Actually, it's very simple, dig a pit and add some water, count 12345, and in the end you will find that it is all mud. ”
Xiao Lingfeng did dig a pit in the ground, then collected many huge leaves, and then put them in the pit layer by layer, and then he injected water.
"This pit is my pot, I only need to cover a lot of leaves without worrying about water seeping down, and even if I heat it, I don't have to worry about the leaves being boiled because the leaves are too thick. ”
Xiao Lingfeng took out a sock from his backpack, "This is my sister's socks, or is it new, I can crush the acorns and put them in it, and then put the socks in this pot." ”
As for the fire that heats the pot, it is replaced by stones, and the stones are already placed in the fire when the fire is made, and the stones only need to be put in.
This method is convenient and allows the water to boil faster, but it is important to note that the stone may crack due to thermal expansion and contraction, and the water will have some grit in it.
The girl's socks have a good isolation effect, and I believe that the acorns will be processed soon.
"Damn, this is fine, use socks to eat, and then boil acorns with such dirty water. ”
"The water looks dirty, but there aren't many bacteria, because it's hot, so the bacteria can't survive. ”
"So it seems that Brother Feng has succeeded in pretending to be forced again?"
"That's right, he successfully pretended to be forced once!"
"Brother Feng's grilled fish is about to be cooked, plus these acorn powder particles, is he going to start the show again?"
"Fortunately, I had the foresight and prepared the food a long time ago, come on, Brother Feng, I'm not afraid of you!"
