"This is Mr. Zheng, Mr. Brown's friend in China, a true friend. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoZheng will settle in this town for a long time and is ready to open a restaurant here. ”

Mrs. Brown spared no effort to promote Zheng Qing.

"Oh! Is it a Chinese restaurant? Someone asked.

They may not be interested in experiencing Chinese food, but they are still curious.

"Sort of." Mrs. Brown wasn't sure, but she didn't know it herself, but she had the impression that Chinese food was definitely not as magical as Zheng Qing's food.

Mrs. Brown helped Zheng Qing introduce, Zheng Qing smiled and nodded to say hello, there are still a lot of people, it is impossible to remember them one by one.

Head to the shopping section of the supermarket to find what you need.

The things he needed were simple, just soybeans, corn, peanuts, and mung beans. Soybeans are intended to be used to make bean sprouts, corn is used to make cornmeal, peanuts are intended to be made into peanut cakes, and mung beans are intended to be made into mung bean cakes.

Of course, Zheng Qing's approach is different from food cooking in the general sense.

In addition to this, he needs three or four things, one of which is a casserole, preferably a purple casserole, and a clay pot.

As for why you don't use an iron pot, you have to use a clay pot and a clay pot, because the food made from the clay pot and clay pot is better preserved than the nutrients of the iron pot.

Compared with Zheng Qing's special cooking, the vitality is more well preserved.

In addition, Zheng Qing's practice is mainly steamed, boiled, stewed, and boiled, and there will be no frying, frying, frying, or roasting.

Although the food tastes better with these latter methods, the nutrient loss of the food is also quite serious.

Special cooking, that is, the loss of vitality is quite serious.

Zheng Qing cooking usually uses a casserole or clay pot to stew or boil, sometimes steamed, simmered slowly over low heat, but never fried, stir-fried, fried, or roasted, just to reduce the dissipation of vitality in the food as much as possible.

In addition, he also needs a pressing plate and a mold, which is the one used to make peanut cake or mung bean cake.

After the peanuts and mung beans are steamed or cooked, if you want to make a cake, you should first crush it, then add sugar or honey and then press it with a pressure plate, put it in a mold to shape, and after cooling and solidifying, it is a peanut cake or mung bean cake.

The addition of syrup is mainly for better adhesion and by the way to improve the taste, as for the special effect, it is not at all.

Of course, Zheng Qing can also boil sugar by himself, and even better, he can grow sugarcane with stronger vitality.

The syrup made of sugar has vitality. But it's quite troublesome to do, at least so far, Zheng Qing hasn't done it.

Not to mention, with his current ability, he can't cook sugar cane yet.

First, I went to look for a casserole and a clay pot, but Lao Mei didn't use a casserole, so I didn't find it. The clay pot was found, but unfortunately it was not used to cook food.

But it can be used even if he is alive, so Zheng Qing took a few more, three large ones and four small ones. The prices are very cheap, the big ones are three yuan nine cents, and the small ones are two pieces nine cents.

Then the pressure plate and the mold were selected.

There are many tricks in the mold, because Lao Mei will use it to make cakes, Zheng Qing picked a few that don't look too fancy.

I couldn't find the platen, so I had to choose two small cutting boards as a replacement.

Little Ryan helped him push the car, looking at Zheng Qing's selection with a curious face, the little guy didn't quite understand what Zheng Qing was going to do.

Mrs. Brown chased after her, saw what Zheng Qing bought, and hurriedly said, "Zheng, you don't need to buy cutting boards and molds, I have them at home, you can use them as you like." ”

Mrs. Brown makes cakes, and there are many molds in the house, and there are all kinds of them.

Zheng Qing put it back and asked Mrs. Brown again, "Louise, do you have a pressure plate at home?" ”

Lao Mei doesn't cut cakes, so no. Zheng Qing also made a long gesture before he made it clear to Mrs. Brown.

Mrs. Brown told him no, but there was something similar, a mechanized briquetting machine.

Lao Mei likes to eat nut cakes, which are made of almonds, raisins, pine nuts, hazelnut kernels, etc. with syrup, cream, honey and then glued and then pressed.

In short, the method is similar to cutting cakes, but adding more sugar.

Mrs. Brown asked Zheng Qing what he was buying a clay pot for, he also had it at home, and if Zheng Qing needed it, he could vacate it at home and use it.

Zheng Qing said that he would cook food for Jenny in a clay pot, and Mrs. Brown immediately stopped talking. The clay pot is not worth a few dollars, and the ones at home are already used to store items, so it is better not to wash them and give them to Jenny again.

Then I went to buy peanuts, corn, etc.

This is particularly time-consuming, and now Zheng Qing can't use that kind of big potatoes and sweet potatoes to cook, and the largest can only use peanuts.

The main thing is that the larger the individual, the stronger the vitality. The vitality contained in these big fruits was beyond the scope that Zheng Qing could control at present.

Everything is very cheap, such as corn, which is only 0.15 dollars a pound.

Lao Mei must be calculated in pounds, and the price is specially converted by Zheng Qing.

The price of soybeans is only about 40 cents a catty.

The main thing is not the price, but when buying, you need to choose one by one. Zheng Qing wanted to pick the seeds with strong vitality and take them back to cook.

Those whose germs are damaged will never be wanted.

Mrs. Brown and Ryan were stunned for this selection, Zheng Qing picked up the seeds one by one and looked at them, and after reading them, they put them in the weighing bag.

Ryan was very happy to help Zheng Qing choose, and thought it was fun.

But this kind of work, others can't help, because when Zheng Qing picks out the seeds, he also has to use the vitality in his body to completely activate the vitality of the seeds.

After activating the seeds, you can reduce the number of steps when cooking.

This was only possible after Zheng Qing's cultivation, and before cultivating, cooking was really not too troublesome, and it would take at least five times as much time as it did now.

smiled and said to Ryan: "Ryan, little man, you don't have to pick, watch me pick it." ”

Ryan stopped puzzled and looked at Zheng Qing, "Why?" Zheng. ”

There is a big cultural gap between Laomei and China, unless it is a relative of one's own family, such as brothers and sisters of parents, children are rarely called outsiders uncle and aunt.

Even if you call your parents, sometimes it is Mr. So-and-So, Mrs. So-and-So, or just call your name.

The name is just a code name, and since it is called this name, anyone can call it.

Unlike in China, if the younger generation dares to call the name of the elder, such as the son calling the father's name and the grandson calling the grandfather's name, it will be considered very impolite.

If you scream, wait to be beaten, and you will be beaten to death.

Therefore, even if it is little Ryan, it is called Zheng Qing's name.

"Because you don't know how to choose." Zheng Qing explained with a smile, and put a piece of corn into the weighing bag by the way.

Little Ryan was curious when he heard this, and came over to see what the seeds Zheng Qing had selected, but after looking at it for a long time, he didn't see a reason.

Mrs. Brown couldn't help but say, "Zheng, little Ryan and I can help, as long as you teach us how to choose." Is it convenient for you to teach us how to do it? ”

Concerned about the exclusive technical implications of the method of selection, Mrs. Brown put it mildly.

Zheng Qing thought for a moment, "Okay." However, what you have picked should be put away separately, not with what I have chosen. ”

Ryan nodded vigorously, and Mrs. Brown agreed.

Zheng Qing then instructed the two of them to do the specific thing, "Mrs. Brown, you go and pick peanuts, choose the kind of germ that is complete, full of grains, and more shiny." ”

He stopped what he was doing, showed Mrs. Brown a few peanuts, and told Mrs. Brown what she needed to pay attention to, "If the germ is incomplete, you must not ask for it, and that kind of seed has no vitality, and even if it is soaked in water, it cannot germinate." ”

"Oh! You mean, you're going to buy seeds, aren't you? "In the supermarket, of course, there are seeds for sale, and Mrs. Brown misunderstood what Zheng Qing meant.

"It's different." Zheng Qing tried to explain.

It is indeed different, the seeds sold in the supermarket are just to ensure that after this seed is planted, it will be able to germinate, and the growth is also good, and it is even divided into different varieties.

But the problem is that these seeds that can germinate and grow well may not be really strong.

Of course, compared to the bulk fruit here, the quality must be much better.

It's just that on the one hand, the price is at least several times more expensive, and on the other hand, even if you buy it back, you have to pick the right one.

In Zheng Qing's opinion, it is not worth spending money to buy seeds to make food.

"It's this, this, and this." Zheng Qing picked a few peanuts and showed them to Mrs. Brown, "Don't want this, this, and this." ”

"Don't look at this peanut with plump grains and germs, but it's already dull in color. Without luster, this peanut is a must. ”

"Also, the kind of peanuts that lose moisture and are very small are also not wanted, like this one."

"Luster, intact germ, full grain." Mrs. Brown memorized a few key words.

"That's it." Zheng Qing nodded in approval and let Mrs. Brown choose.

As for the peanuts that Mrs. Brown picked, they need to be brought back to activate the peanuts' vitality. In addition, there must be some peanuts that Mrs. Brown chose were not suitable, and Zheng Qing had to choose them again after he returned.

Either way, it can save him time in the supermarket.

Little Ryan leaned over to look at it, and couldn't see the reason at all. But Zheng Qing still asked the little guy to pick soybeans, and just pick out the soybeans with intact germs and hypertrophy.

This job is relatively simple, and it doesn't require much technical content, but little Ryan can do it, and he is very happy to pick it up with a weighing bag.

It's just that Lao Mei buys things in the supermarket, which is a little different from that in China, and few people will be so picky in the supermarket. Especially picking and choosing like Zheng Qing and them can be called excessive.

When several old beauties who bought things passed by, they couldn't help but stop and look sideways, feeling that this Chinese had brought Mrs. Brown's family to ruin on the first day they came.
