Yang Shen only felt a sweet taste, which suddenly filled every corner of his mouth. It was the taste of sugar, but it was completely different from the brown sugar he had eaten before.

The gritty touch rolled on the tip of the tongue, but there was no urge to spit it out, and with a hard click, the sugar that was already a few pieces completely melted. Yang Shen couldn't help but lick his lips and said, "What kind of candy is this?" How is it different from the previous one? ”

Lin Xiaoman forcibly suppressed the strange feeling that had sprung up just now, looked at Yang Shen, and asked with bright eyes, "Is it sweet?" How does it taste? With that, he pushed the rest of the candy to the men waiting outside the house.

Yang Shen's subordinates are basically tough guys, and they don't touch sweets very much. And the previous taste of brown sugar had other impurities besides sweetness, and they basically didn't touch it. This time, the owner requested, and the eldest brother watched from the side again. I can only stiffen my head and step forward, and one person picks up a little with his fingers and puts it in his mouth.

But I don't want to, the melt-in-your-mouth sweetness is too delicious. Everyone's faces showed delicious expressions, and some people couldn't help but step forward again, took some more and put it in their mouths. They found that the white sugar was not like the brown sugar at all, and there was residue left in the mouth.

"Boss, is this sugar?" One of the men had the audacity to ask.

Lin Xiaoman nodded, and then said to Yang Shen: "It seems that my steps are correct, wait a minute, you let them buy a batch of people, and then I will teach everyone a few steps." Let's try to produce small batches first, and if it's okay, we'll increase the production volume. Looking at Lin Xiaoman's sparkling eyes. Yang Shen nodded dotingly, turned around and ordered, and asked his subordinates to do as Lin Xiaoman said.

Lin Xiaoman rewrote a batch of raw materials needed for sugar production, after all, although the sugar beets and sugarcane taken out of his space can also be made into sugar in small batches, if the production volume is increased, it will definitely not be enough. Moreover, how to take out raw materials from the space by yourself, how to hide the production from others, this is the biggest key.

So, it's still the actual reality of looking for the object of supply. That's the most important thing. Moreover, sugarcane is abundant outside the city of Quanzhou. The beets were grown in the north, and she took the beets out of the space and asked Yang Shen, who said that she had seen this kind of vegetable in the north. It's just that although this dish is common in the north, it is not popular in many varieties. It is probably planted in some fields or wilderness fields. For feed.

Only the poor people will use it to cook and eat when they really have no vegetables, because the taste of the dish is sweet. It's not suitable for the salty and heavy taste of the Northland, so I don't like to eat it.

Lin Xiaoman listened to Yang Shen's words and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, there are beets, or she really doesn't know what to do! This beet originated in Europe, and it is not known when it was introduced from overseas to the Great Qing Dynasty. After all, the space is limited, and the crops in the space cannot be used outside, so it is impossible to achieve large-scale production.

She first sent people to the north to collect a large number of these beets, and asked them to bring back the seeds of the beets to see if they could grow them outside Quanzhou.

Sixteen people looked like a lot, but when Lin Xiaoman was assigned, she felt that it was still not enough. No wonder there are so many people in the big family, it is entirely because there are so many people in need, not because they want to be stylish.

It takes a certain amount of time to harvest and plant this sugar beet, but sugar cane is everywhere in this city of Quanzhou. After instructing everyone to do what should be done, Lin Xiaoman threw himself into the house again, to study how to refine sugar cane into sugar.

And this time she didn't just want to make white sugar, she wanted to make rock sugar even more. She knows how to make rock sugar, and she needs to choose high-quality white sugar, and she just wanted to make rock sugar before, so she worked hard to study how to make sugar.

To make rock sugar, add white sugar to clean water3 and stir well to fully dissolve the sugar in water. Then use the boiling method to add vegetable oil to the sandwich pot before the sugar solution is boiled, and then pour the prepared sugar solution into the upper pot, boil it with fire, when the sugar solution boils for five to six minutes, then add the saturated alum solution at room temperature, stir while adding it, make it fully mixed, measure it with a thermometer, stop the fire when the temperature in the sugar solution rises to about 150 degrees Celsius, and cool down and get out of the pot. The best temperature is 115 to 120 degrees Celsius. The crystallization method is to put the sugar solution out of the pot into the plate, put it on the clay kang and cover it with a clean quilt, and keep the temperature in the plate at about 90 degrees Celsius that day, and then cool down by 10 degrees Celsius every day until the fifth day. If the temperature is not enough, you can add fire to increase the temperature of the kang, under normal circumstances, the sugar solution in the crystallization process, afraid of cold and not afraid of heat, because the crystallization water is mostly in the vaporization, the greater the vaporization, the higher the crystallization rate of rock sugar.

When the first pot of rock sugar was made, Lin Xiaoman couldn't help but hug the rock candy and kiss him. It's been a long time since I've seen such beautiful rock candy? The color is transparent, and it has a multifaceted ice-like shape like a diamond, so you can't help but want to taste what it tastes like.

This batch of rock sugar is made from sucrose made from sugar cane, and Lin Xiaoman found that the sucrose made from sugar cane tasted a little sweeter than that made from sugar beets. I don't know if it's her psychological effect, but she personally thinks that sugar made from sugar cane is more suitable for things like candy, while sugar made from beets is suitable for cooking.

In addition, she also took the brown sugar on the market and re-refined it. After removing impurities, the brown sugar has a sweet aftertaste, and everyone agrees that it tastes 100 times better than the original brown sugar.

When Lin Xiaoman returned home, he put three kinds of sugar in front of the Chen family and let them taste it, and he called Hongyi to help her boil water and take a bath. During this time, in that room, the most he could do was wipe it with a wet towel, and if he didn't take a bath, Lin Xiaoman felt that he was going to stink all over!

Chen, Gu Yu and Lixia looked at the white sugar, rock sugar and brown sugar in front of them and each chose one to try, and after eating one, they hurriedly tasted the other two. By the time Lin Xiaoman came out of the shower, the candy had already been divided among the three of them.

"Little Four, how did you come up with the idea to make this candy? It's really sweet! "Lixia was actually beaten by the second sister who has always been slow just now because of his slow hand. The remaining half was taken into Chen's arms, making her stare at her.

Seeing Xiaoman come out, she rolled her eyes and immediately stepped forward to hug her little sister slimy. Lixia didn't dare to snatch it in the arms of her mother and second sister, she could ask for this little sister who made rock candy! If you can do it once, you will definitely be able to do it a second time. (To be continued......)
