Chapter 30 Food Preparation
Accompanied by Leaping Fish and Mud, Moto Sato carefully reads the contents of the notebook.
As the minutes ticked by, Moji Sato raised his head and twisted his stiff neck, taking a look at the time.
Yo, I didn't pay attention to it at 8 o'clock.
I went to bed too early at this time, and I was too tired to read, and after thinking for a while, Sato Mo closed the notebook: "Well, I'm going to the forest tomorrow, although there are trees and fruits in the forest, but ...... It's rare to get this notebook, don't do something to be struck by lightning, hehehe~~"
Moto Sato was covered in stinky mud, and he came to the kitchen downstairs with a dozing water leaping fish in his arms.
According to the notebook, the blue orange fruit is a versatile tree fruit with a variety of flavors and excellent physical recovery effect, so it is not wrong to put some blue orange fruit when making elf food.
After searching in the kitchen for a while, Sato Mo put the tree fruits he found in turn, as well as some other auxiliary materials.
There are some more colorful and different shapes of tree fruits on the board.
There are more than 10 blue orange-shaped blue orange fruits, about 4 cm in diameter, and 2 of them are less than 2 cm in diameter, and the small ones are not ripe.
Next to it, there are two cherry blossoms in the shape of red balls, with long green stems growing on them, and the fruits are bright, but they are a little spicy and have a pungent taste.
There are also 2 normal-sized pieces of about 8 cm in size, which look like a hazelnut. Compared to the tip of the needle, the bottom of the fruit is much more rounded. From the top, the blue-purple part occupies two-thirds of the whole, while the bottom is light brown.
This was bought from the town, and contrary to its simple appearance, the skin and flesh of the fruit were really hard and astringent, but all of them could be eaten, and it was effective in waking up the sleeping elves.
This is very important for Momu Sato, who often waves in the forest. (Blue orange fruit, poison; cherry fruit, fire; Zero residual fruit, water)
What's next? Sato Mo looked at the ingredients in front of him, and then looked at the notebook in his hand, a little worried.
Momo Sato looked at what was written in his notebook: "Eh, I'll look at the ingredients that need to be prepared... Tree fruit is there, meat? There is some meat (ordinary meat) in the refrigerator, and the water leaping fish should be eaten by the water, and the mud can eat everything, which doesn't matter. Do you need eggs, well, there should be some eggs (there are normal creatures in the elven world). Finally, the milled millet is used...... Flour should work, probably. ”
"First of all, the fruit and meat are made into a minced ......" Mo Sato looked at the notebook while preparing to process the tree fruit, because the meat is very simple to handle, and the more troublesome thing is the processing of the tree fruit, especially the blue orange fruit and the residual fruit, the texture is extremely hard in the tree fruit.
The blue orange fruit is a very wonderful tree fruit, which has a variety of flavors, including sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and astringent. When you wash the blue orange fruit, you will have an incredibly good taste when you take a bite of it in your mouth. (Note 2)
Sato Mo looked at the tree fruit placed in front of him, and then suddenly thought, "That's right! Ah Yue, what flavor do you like? After speaking, Sato Mo took one of the three tree fruits and put it in front of the water leaping fish, "Then again, Ah Ni likes sour food very much, but he hates sweetness~"
The water leaping fish glanced at the next three tree fruits, and then leaned in and sniffed them all.
The blue orange fruit is a little elf who likes it, and the water leaping fish feels that the zero fruit has a strong attraction to itself, but the astringent taste around the zero fruit is a little nasilous, and this taste is not hated or liked; As for the last cherry blossom fruit...
Let's go! The water leaping fish pressed its front foot on the cherry blossom fruit: "Click! "That's it!
"Oh~~ Do you like spicy taste? OK! Ink Sato said.
Seeing that Shui Yueyu chose cherry blossom fruit, Ah Ni on the side also breathed a sigh of relief, and he could accept the spiciness, as long as it was not sweet.
Put the two green blue orange fruits aside, wash the remaining larger blue orange fruits, Sato Mo is ready to dice them with a knife, and then ......, "Ah Mud, help me cut the blue orange fruits into cubes, and then stir them into puree, remember to bring gloves." ”
The blue orange fruit is very hard, and Sato Mo tried to cut it a few times, and found that he was very difficult to handle, and his small body would be very tired and tired to deal with this tree fruit.
"Phew!" Ah Ni, who was watching from the side, put on gloves and excitedly took over the guy who processed the blue orange fruit from Sato Mo, and began to process the blue orange fruit.
Takeshi Sato cut the fruit into chunks and took out large pieces of meat from the refrigerator. In the same way, Moto Sato made the meat into minced meat and set it aside.
At this time, Ah Ni also finished processing the blue orange fruit, but ...... Sato Mo took it and took a look, it could only be regarded as a mixture of pomace and juice, so it could be used alive.
Then mix the pomace and minced meat together, stir slowly to make it well mixed, and then throw the mixture into the pot and start to boil slowly.
"This should take a while..."Moki Sato estimated that this process would take a while. Taking advantage of this gap, Ink Sato began to process two slightly green blue orange fruits and spicy cherry blossom fruits.
The unripe blue orange fruit is very sour and sour, so Sato Mo chopped a green blue orange fruit and mixed it with the residual fruit, hoping to remove some of the astringency of the residual fruit, and still put it aside after processing.
After waiting for a while, Sato Mo poured out some of the water from the pot according to his instincts, and then continued to boil until the water in the pot disappeared completely. Then add some flour to it, add a few eggs by the way, and continue to knead until it is half-formed.
Sato Mo paused to breathe a sigh of relief, then divided the food into three portions, one of which was significantly less. Add the green blue orange fruit pomace and juice (for Ah Mud), a mixture of blue orange fruit, zero fruit and half of the cherry fruit that was flattened by a kitchen knife (for the water leaping fish), and add the remaining one and a half cherry fruit to the last part of the reduced amount (for the wind speed dog) after flattening the remaining one and a half cherry fruits, and start kneading the three parts until they are fully formed.
Finally, Sato covered the surface with a layer of plastic film, carefully kneaded and patted them into the shape of a disc with a thickness of about 1 cm, and then put it in a steamer to start steaming. Sato Mo looked at the time and estimated that it would take about 15 minutes.
Sato Mo stopped what he was doing and beat his little waist, but he was tired. If it hadn't been halfway through, seeing the saliva flowing from the corners of Ah Ni and Ah Yue's mouths, Sato Mo would have given up a long time ago.
"Wait a minute, and you'll be fine in a minute." Sato Mo grabbed one with one hand, especially the restless A-Ni. Sato Mo estimated that if he hadn't pulled it himself, Ah Ni would have swallowed the food in one gulp. But looking at their performance, Sato Mo is looking forward to it.
The time soon came, and the three servings of the food with different condiments were baked, all of which were dark brown, except that the surface of the food with cherry fruit was a little red [Note 3].
However, after steaming, the food looks ugly. Sato Mo took a deep breath, and the same was true of the mud and the water leaping fish around him, and the room was filled with the faint fragrance of stimulating his appetite [Note 4].
"Bah!" Ah Ni endured from the beginning of processing the ingredients to the end of the pot, and he was really about to run out. Sato Mo is also not ambiguous, respectively, cut a part of the mud and water leaping fish to taste the taste, and then ate some himself, the mud food is very sour, it seems that there is too much blue orange fruit, but the food of the water leaping fish is not a little spicy, Sato Moha thought angrily.
Ignoring the steaming appearance of the food, Ah Ni couldn't wait to swallow it in one gulp? Bei~"This tastes okay~ You can eat it!
The water leaping fish has not been deviated by a mud, and the act of eating is to be sven, chew slowly, "Carlo-" The reaction of the water leaping fish is a little bland, this taste can only be said not to hate or dislike, you can eat it. Moji Sato: In other words, is it just the right amount of spiciness?
Ignoring Ah Ni, a foodie, for the performance of the water leaping fish, Sato Mo doesn't care now. After all, this is my first trial production, and it is normal to be unsuccessful. What's more, looking at the performance of Ah Ni and Shui Yueyu, it shows that there is still a lot of room for improvement! Uh-huh, keep up the good work!
After tasting the taste, Ah Mu and the Water Leaping Fish were not interested in it before, after all, the taste was there. However, what should be eaten is still eaten, and Ah Mu and Shui Yueyu instinctively feel that the food in front of them is very good for them. Sato Mo was not discouraged by this, and after the food was cool, he used a kitchen knife to draw a line on the surface of the food, which was generally in a grid, and was ready to be taken upstairs to dry, almost until tomorrow morning...... Bar~~
"No, you've already had dinner!" Sato Mo did not hesitate to refuse Ah Ni's request to eat, and together with the water leaping fish, there was a trace of pity on his face, "I want to try its air-drying speed, shelf life and others!" Stealing is not allowed! After saying that, Sato Mo took out a Poke Ball and shook it in front of Ah Ni, the threat was obvious. Ah Ni suddenly twisted his neck and didn't look at Sato Mo.
"Hee-hee~" Look at the time It's almost 22 o'clock, after setting the alarm clock, Sato Mo yawned: "Wooha~~", ready to go to bed, there is something to do tomorrow... Suddenly, I noticed a shadow flickering outside the window, probably some elf smelled the fragrance.
"......" tilted his head and thought about it, but Sato Mo still decided to take the food back to the house, otherwise it would be good to have a plate left tomorrow morning. It's just that there is a problem with taking it back, Sato Mo glanced at Ah Ni, who was a little stupid, and there will be no leftovers of this special plate!
No, I'll have to figure out a way...... Pregnant~~
(Note 1: The energy attribute of the fruit is determined by the attribute embodied in the consumption of the fruit by the grace of nature.) For example, if you consume a blue orange fruit, it is a poison attribute energy attack)
(Note 2: Astringency can be regarded as salty, see Pokémon Encyclopedia - Grass Silkworm Fruit for details)
(Note 3: The basic color of the elf food is brown and black, which is the same as in the anime, so I don't want to mess with the setting; Energy blocks to be determined)
(Note 4: Meat can be deflavored by tree fruit - Wozkishuod)
PS: Elf food preparation: Refer to the steps for making dry dog food or cat food. Hehe~~ My DIY soul can't help it.
In addition, only in this chapter I wrote a little about the steps of making food, and I will touch it on later. However, there are exceptions.
