Chapter 37: The Fruit (II)

Song Jiu whispered to him: "Pan Dalang, don't talk nonsense, she is a Qing Qi person, and she is still Yunying's body, although she is a woman, how difficult it is in that place!" ”

That is, Yuping is still a virgin, others did not touch her, and Song Jiu did not touch her. Let Pan Weide not think nonsense, now Song Jiu finally saw that none of their fathers were simple, but it was not the same thing in their hands. I sighed in my heart, in another thirty or forty years, these older generations will all be gone, how many families will be left in these high-ranking families to continue to be glorious? There will be a few left, it's not Song Jiu's ability to worry about it, now I have to borrow their momentum.

In particular, this morning I prepared a kind of fruit, which is not a fruit, but a candied fruit and pastry.

Fu Zhaoshou didn't look for him, and he was also going to invite them over another day to try it.

It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, since it's here, including Yuping, it's just right to give it away.

Song Jiu asked Zhu San to stand outside the door to inform the students who came one after another that they were on vacation, and he took Yuping and Cui'er into the back room to get some ingredients. There are also people, four painters, who are so poor that Song Jiu can cook food, so Lai does not leave in Song's house, and huddles in the two rooms to the west of the back wing, painting during the day and resting at night.

Song Jiu looked at the ingredients in his hand, he had a headache, and prepared the ingredients for more than a dozen people, but now it includes twenty-eight princes, four painters, plus himself Zhu Sanyu Ping Cui'er, a whole thirty-six people! There is simply not enough to eat.

I did it first.

Deliberately let Blacksmith Li make a strange pan and use it as a simple oven.

Cui'er and Yuping played miscellaneous, and Zhu San bragged about Song Jiu's craftsmanship outside. More than 20 sons were suspicious, and it was not until the four painters testified that they all believed it.

After a while, the fragrance wafted away.

This is the first bread and cake in the true sense of the Song Dynasty!

There must be one thing to make these two kinds of dim sum, baking powder, in his previous life, Song Jiu had a friend who opened a cake shop, and the business was very prosperous, mainly because it tasted good. Song Jiu is a foodie who runs to ask for scriptures. They are all friends with good relations, and he took Song Jiu to visit, not that flour is good, but one thing, yeast!

Other pastry shops use industrial yeast powder, and his friend said that eating too much of it is harmful to people, which is probably a bit sensational. But the difference is yeast, others use industrial yeast, while he is the yeast that he ferments.

First of all, you can use apples, but you can also use other fruits, such as pears, strawberries, grapes, kiwifruit, carrots and milk, there is no problem, and the yeast made from different materials has a different taste of snacks. It's just that the yeast made by apples has the highest success rate and the fastest speed. Chop and put water and sugar, at this time there is no sugar, so I have to use frosting to boil into sugar water instead, put it in a container, and put the container in a high-temperature place, preferably at 28 to 35 degrees. After six or seven days, when you open the lid and smell the liquid, it is considered a success, if the smell is rotten or white, it is a failure. The liquid is then filtered and three to four times the amount of juice is added to grow the yeast. After ten hours of cultivation, it can be put into the cold storage as the stock solution, but if it is not used for a week, 100% fruit sweat must be added to the room temperature environment to let the yeast survive, and the precipitation will also be produced below, which is inactive yeast and must be re-filtered, and this is the second time to enter the cold storage.

At this time, the yeast liquid can be drunk as a high-end drink, sweet and sour, the taste is better than champagne, and the nutritional value is also higher. You can't make bread directly, because the bread will taste sour. Before making bread, you have to make yeast seeds, put flour, salt, and water in different steps, and the fermentation time is different in summer and winter, which takes more than ten hours, like the current temperature can be completed in two hours. Fermentation is good, and as long as it is fed regularly, this yeast seed can survive for a year. In the Song Dynasty, there were no conditions to make artificial yeast in winter, but as long as the yeast seeds were done well in summer, the yeast problem in winter could be solved. You can't make bread directly, and the bread will still be sour. After that, the yeast seed, flour and water are mixed evenly, and then fermented for the second time, and the dough expands to two or three times before it can be baked.

The formalities are a bit cumbersome, but delicious is guaranteed. Not only fruit yeast, but also tea yeast and brewer's yeast can be used to make snacks, and his friend said after introducing him: "You can eat it, don't expect to make it at home." ”

I didn't expect that visit, but it came to the Song Dynasty to come in handy. When the painter first arrived home, Song Jiu was fermenting this artificial yeast, most of which failed, and only two bottles of yeast succeeded by luck.

No one knew the process in the middle, and the middle seed was also prepared last night.

There are also a few related things, milk cool, sugar, honey, chicken, and other ingredients.

Honey has been available for a long time, and sugar has to be replaced by frosted water, and milk is cool, which seems to be greasy and cool, like condensation and floating. The bottom of the corn pan is broken, and the snow is frozen to the sun, which is ice milk cool, that is, ice cream. But like frosting, it's so expensive.

Of course, if you want to make high-end bread, cakes, pizzas, and sushi, you have to waste countless ingredients before you can gradually develop and improve. Now Song Jiu only makes a few simple breads.

There are no food additives and aromatics, but under the cultivation of the simmer, the bread is gradually baked, and the fragrance of milk, sugar, and yeast gradually permeates the air.

Dr. Yan and Dr. Zhang also arrived.

Song Jiu has thick skin and thick meat, and slowly brought the two serious and old-fashioned gentlemen, knowing that Song Jiu wanted to make breakfast in the morning, and gradually came early, not buying buns on the road, but running to Song's house to eat. But there is a long way to go, and you have to get up very early and very early, and it is actually very bitter to eat a meal of noodles......

Seeing that Zhu San was asking the students to go back, Dr. Yan said angrily: "Zhu San, what are you doing, today is another holiday?" ”

"Dr. Yan, it was Jiulang who asked me to do this," Zhu San didn't dare to talk back to Dr. Yan, and hurriedly shirked his responsibility.

Dr. Yan angrily barged in and questioned Song Jiu.

These two people have rigid education methods, but their sense of responsibility is stronger than Song Jiu.

Song Jiu said while baking bread: "Dr. Yan, many families want me to recruit more students these days. ”

"It's not easy," said Dr. Yan, with a straight face, but his nose was wrinkled, and he clearly smelled the aroma of bread.

"It's not easy, but where there's a will, there's a way, how about Taiyi Academy and Bailu Cave Academy?"

"Okay, why do you mention them?" Dr. Yan yearned, Hunan Yuelu Academy and Yingtianfu Juyang Academy have not yet appeared, but later the four major academies of the Song Dynasty have come out of two, one is the Southern Tang Dynasty Lushan Bailu Cave Museum, the Southern Tang Dynasty in the Tang Dynasty Li Bo brothers lived in seclusion to study the place to establish the Chinese Academy of Chinese Studies, also called the White Deer Cave Museum, because the Southern Tang Dynasty was more developed than the Song Dynasty literature, it was called the first school in the world. Later Zhou was not to be left behind, and rebuilt on the basis of the palace built by Tang Gaozong in Songshan, and established Taiyi Academy, which is not far from Shaolin Temple. These two academies are the predecessors of Bailudong Academy and Songyang Academy. One in the south and one in the north, known as the top two schools in the world. As for Guozijian, it was a place to play with the princes, how could it compare with these two academies? One is flowers, the other is cow dung, the other is the paradise of the literati, and the other is the place stained with the smell of worldly copper. Don't look at the two doctors who are angry in front of Song Jiu, but when they go to Taiyi Academy to apply for a job, even an ordinary teacher will not let them do it.

Song Jiu Da Yan smiled and said, "The bread is out, and the academy is out." ”

Lift the pan and bake the bread.

"Don't worry," although seeing the bread with good color and flavor, Dr. Yan couldn't help but swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva, but still pulled Song Jiu back: "What academy came out?" ”

"Do you want to set up a academy in the capital as well? Do you want to be a mountain chief, a cave chief, or a deputy mountain chief, a deputy cave chief? ”

I thought about it, but I couldn't understand it: "Song Jiu, make it clear." ”

"When the bread is eaten, the academy will slowly come out."

"What do you mean?" Dr. Yan was even more anxious, it was not easy to establish one college, and the two colleges were renovated on the basis of the original buildings, and a lot of money was spent. Not only that, but there must be a great Confucian willing to teach, and there must be a lot of teachers. The second is books, which are very expensive nowadays, and some rare books are not easy to find, but the college must have them. The last thing is maintenance and other expenses, such as the teacher's salary, the renovation of classroom tables and chairs, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and a lot of money a year, not only needs the help of the state, but also needs the recognition of some squires who are willing to contribute money and donations, so that the college can be maintained. If it was easy, the imperial court would have set up a academy in Beijing a long time ago.

"If you want to set up a academy, you have to take your time, right?"

"yes."

"You have to take it one step at a time, right?"

"Nonsense!"

"I talk a lot, but I never talk nonsense, the first step is to eat good bread first."

"What are you going to say?"

"Heaven must not be revealed, and one day, you will know the meaning of eating bread. Eat, eat for the sake of the academy. Song Jiu stuffed a loaf of bread into his mouth, just when he was hungry, the sweet smell came to his brain along his tongue, and Dr. Yan couldn't help but chew it. Realizing that something was wrong, he took the bread down with his hand and asked again: "Song Jiu, explain it clearly." ”

"The secret of heaven must not be revealed, and it will not work if you say it. For the sake of the college, I have a day off today. Let's eat, everyone. ”

Start eating bread.

First he ate it, and then grabbed it and ate it. Cui'er said unconvinced: "You are all big men, are you embarrassed to grab food with me, a little woman?" ”

Han Qingchao kindly patted her head and said, "Little girl, grab it, don't make any noise, you won't have your share if you quarrel again." ”

Only Yuping took a piece of bread and put it in front of her, carefully brought a porcelain bowl, and poured tea for everyone. Because of his weak heart, Dr. Zhang rarely talked to Song Jiu during this time, but at this time, he couldn't help but glance at Yuping, and thought to himself, Song Jiu, this kid is so blessed, this trip is so gentle.

After pouring tea for everyone, Apple watched everyone grab the bread with a smile and took a small bite, but Dai's eyebrows couldn't help jumping. No wonder it's so delicious. Sweet and fluffy, the mouth seems to melt.

In just a moment, dozens of loaves of bread were snatched up.

Pan Weide shouted: "No, Xiao Jiu, we haven't eaten enough, we still have to do it." ”

"Pan Dalang, no, it's not that I don't do it, but this will be very troublesome to do, and it must be prepared overnight. I'm ready now, and you'll have it in the evening. ”

"Don't lie to me."

"No, swear to God."

Han Qingchao said on the side: "Weide, don't embarrass him, this kind of delicacy is not easy to make." ”

Xiao Cao Jue whispered: "This is the best fruit I have ever tasted, and I still want to eat it." ”

Dr. Zhang, like him, was still unsatisfied, but he was too embarrassed to say it, so he asked, "What is this noodle eat?" ”

"Bread."

"What does eating bread have to do with the Academy?" I really don't understand!
