Yuan Qing heard a few fruit farmers sighing, her brain was working, she didn't know if these apples could be made into apple cider vinegar?

"A few folks, I just heard you talking about apples, I want to ask, how many apples do you still have unsold?" Yuan Qing came to the side of several people and said.

"This girl, are you going to buy apples from us?" A middle-aged woman said.

"Yes." Yuan Qing nodded.

"Girl, I'm afraid we can't get into your eyes." The woman said, looking at the boxes of apples behind her, these apples were bitter and dry yellow, and it seemed that they had been picked and left for a long time.

"Oh, I'll see." Saying that, Yuan Qing picked out one of the apples in the recent box, and looked up and down, the apples were extremely bad, the skin was crumpled, and the fruit farmers planned to pour them here and let them rot.

"Well, these apples are rotten, and they can't be sold, and we're going to pour them here, and if the girl wants to buy apples, I still have one that I have just picked from the tree, and it's still fresh, so why don't you go to my house and take a look?" Woman.

"You're going to throw all these apples out?" Yuan Qing was very surprised, these apples were all dry skin, and the flesh was still crisp and juicy.

"Yes, these apples can't be sold, and there are still many apples at home, and if they don't fall away, there is no place to put them at home." The woman sighed.

"I see, I want all these apples." Yuan Qingdao, "How much?" ”

"Girl, you...... Just kidding, right? A middle-aged man didn't believe it.

"Well, you're going to lose all of this anyway, so I'll reluctantly buy it." Yuan Qingdao, in fact, she didn't want to buy it, they were all going to be dumped, and she would just pick it up when the time came...... However, these apples they planted with hard work, and Yuan Qing still felt a little unhappy in his heart.

"Is the girl telling the truth?" A man said.

"Really." Yuan Qing nodded. "Cheaper." She tried her best to pretend to be a bargain. Because she bought these apples, first, the price was cheap, they had to pour it out, and the price would definitely not be as high as that, second, Yuan Qing wanted to reprocess these apples, which was considered a trade secret, and before it was successful, it was better to keep it as low-key as possible.

"Girl, do you buy these apples, or so many? It's not a good deal. A kind middle-aged man said that these apples are not pretty, and they can't eat them all.

"It's okay, these apples are still edible." Yuan Qinghui was extremely simple.

"That's fine." The middle-aged man nodded silently.

"These apples don't cost much, girl, three taels of silver, will you buy them?" The woman tried to say that if the fruit were fresh, it would have been bought for fifteen taels of silver, and now that the skin was so bad, it would have been so priced.

"Yes, but I'll have to trouble a few people to get these apples to my home." Yuan Qingdao.

"No problem, girl, if you are willing to buy it, we will be very happy."

So the three of them happily brought a carriage from home and transported the basket of apples back to Qiuzhou.

"Master, aren't these apples cost-effective?" Qi Yan said.

"Forget it, they are also very hard, and they don't lose three taels of silver." Yuan Qingdao.

The apples were transported by them to the urban-rural junction of Qiuzhou, and in the house that Yuan Qing had rented before, the fruit farmer paid three taels of silver and the freight was also included, so they went back happily.

Yuan Qing looked at the six baskets of bad-looking apples. What can Apple do?

Apple cider vinegar, apple juice, preserved apples, apple slices, apple paste, dried apples......

"Yes, there are so many Apple practices." Yuan Qing nodded knowingly. Let's start with a simple one to make, applesauce. Yuan Qing tried to recall in her mind that the recipe she had read in her previous life had introduced the method of applesauce.

To make applesauce, peel 1 apple, dice, together with the pineapple first put in the microwave uncovered on high heat for five minutes. 2Add sugar, 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to play the role of preservative, and lemon juice can also be used. 3Then put it in a blender and crush. 4. Return to the microwave oven without covering the high heat for 5 minutes, and if there is no microwave oven, use the stove to simmer for 30 minutes. 5. Take it out, let it cool, and seal it.

Without further ado, just do what you say, buy all kinds of materials, and Yuan Qing and Qi Yan will do it.

An hour passed, and a plate of applesauce was baked.

Of course, due to the constraints of the conditions, the above method is a standard practice, and it seems that there are no pineapples and no microwave oven blenders in this era, so ...... You know.

Although this plate of applesauce is not as beautiful as the one taken in the book in the previous life, it is also very good at applesauce in this era, and it tastes very fragrant and delicious.

Yuan Qing recorded the process of making applesauce just now, and then she was going to make preserved apples. First, peel the apples and cut them into cubes.

They make samples and choose a few apples to make, so the workload is not large, and it will be very fast. After all, there are six baskets of unsellable apples waiting for them to be further processed and then sold.

Add an appropriate amount of rock sugar and water to the apple chunks. Rock sugar is available in this era, and the rock sugar gourd is an example. Simmer on high heat for 2025 minutes. Visually inspect the fruit pieces as close to transparent. Prepare the hood, scrub it clean and tumble dry. Use chopsticks to place the apple chunks on the baking dough. Flip often. This ensures that the apples will not burn. When the apples turn golden brown and have a good color, the dried apples are completed.

Applesauce and preserved apples can be done successfully. However, there is a disadvantage of these two things, that is, they can't be put for a long time, so what can be put for a long time? Apple cider vinegar.

Yes, apple cider vinegar can be stored for a long time. Yuan Qing suddenly thought of this and said, "Qiyi, you go buy more rock sugar and white vinegar, we will make apple cider vinegar." ”

Qi Yan didn't ask much and left.

The recipe for apple cider vinegar is simple, it takes longer to complete, but it can also be stored for a long time, and it is the best way to save these unsellable apples.

Yuan Qing washes and slices apples, and makes apple cider vinegar needs to be cut into thin slices, Yuan Qing is not a master of using a knife, it seems that there is no spatula in this era, there is no way, you can only use a kitchen knife to cut slowly.

Qi Qi came back soon, and she bought a large amount of rock sugar and white vinegar according to Yuan Qing's request. The production of apple cider vinegar requires a lot of rock sugar and white vinegar.

Cut the apples into slices, put them in a jar, put a layer of apples, spread a layer of rock sugar, and when the jar is full, go inside to the white vinegar, and pour the white vinegar into the jar to soak every apple in the white vinegar, do this, and seal the jar. Then wait, wait for seven or eight days, and all the things in the jar will be integrated, and then the apple cider vinegar will be made.

Yuan Qing decided that six baskets of apples and four blues were used to make apple cider vinegar, after all, apple cider vinegar was stored for a long time, and two blues were used to make dried apples, dried apples, apple juice or something.

The next step is to spend it in a busy way.

This is also a trade secret, after all, a large number of fruits are dumped in Autumn Prefecture every year, because they don't know that these fruits can be processed like this, right?

After two days of busyness, apple cider vinegar has completed the previous steps, and then you only need to wait, the two blue apples, Yuan Qing made them into a lot of tricks, there are dried apples, apple sauce, preserved apples, apple juice...... In short, Yuan Qing can think of Apple's practices, and basically did it.

So she also came to the rental house for two days.

On the third day, Yuan Qing and Qi Yi packed all the apple products they could take away, and they didn't buy them directly on the street, but took them to the Moon Lake Restaurant.

"Shopkeeper, where have you been these days? Xiaobao is about to cry when she looks for you. Ge Yulian was very happy to see Yuan Qing, and he asked a little scolding, Yuan Bao is going to school now, but before, as long as he was in the restaurant, he would ask Yuan Qing where he went all the time.

"I, I have something to be busy with, it's really ......" Yuan Qing hesitated, "Xiaobao, he should be in the academy now." ”

"Yes, this kid, since the prefect's daughter didn't go to school, he has become depressed, the shopkeeper, you should accompany him more." Ge Yu said.

"I know, Uncle Lian, I'll enlighten him well." Yuan Qing nodded, she also knew that since Xiaoli left the school, Xiaobao had been a little unhappy, if she, the elder sister, was not by his side at this time, she couldn't say anything.

"Yes." Ge Yulian also nodded.

"By the way, Uncle Lian, I've been out and made some preserved apples these days, you can taste them." After that, Qi Yan brought some processed products of apples.

Ge Yulian was very surprised, he would never have thought that Apple could do this.

"Yes, it tastes good." Ge Yulian tasted some and nodded again and again.

"That's good." Yuan Qingdao.

Then, the menu of the Moon Lake Restaurant temporarily added some menus about apples, and after the enthusiastic promotion of Xiao Er, the guests bought some preserved apples, dried apples, apple juice or something to try it. But the taste didn't disappoint them, it was good.

Today, all the apple processing products that Yuan Qing brought were sold out, but in fact, she didn't have much.

In the afternoon, Yuan Bao came back from school, he is really depressed now, the innocent and innocent face in the past is now surrounded by a lazy atmosphere, and the whole person has no spirit, Yuan Qing really can't bear it.

"Xiaobao, I'm back." A familiar voice came into the boy's ears, and the boy looked up and saw a very close relative standing in front of him, he couldn't help but have teary eyes, and his choked voice sounded softly, "Sister." ”

Yuan Qing lowered his body and took him into his arms. The boy's warm tears dripped on Yuan Qing's shoulders, with a hint of grievance and a touch of sadness.

I don't know how this ten-year-old child can be so sad.

"Xiaobao, don't cry, my sister will give you something delicious." Yuan Qing patted the boy on the back and comforted his young heart, Yuan Qing really hoped that this little child would be more resistant after this "catastrophe". After all, falling out of love is something that everyone has to experience, and there is nothing to die or live, it's good to have loved once...... I'm not fragile, what's the injury? Anyway, love isn't all like this, "Lying". So just get through it. To be continued
