Chapter 5: The Book of Creation for the Transformation into Recipes
In this way of making dough, he can even micro-manipulate, such as making the starch molecules arrange more regularly in the same order, and superimpose them, so that the resulting dough is naturally very thin, and full of toughness, and can be directly thrown into the oil pan for frying without rolling it out in a glass bottle.
Huang Si made several pieces of fried noodles in a row, and then tasted them.
This dough sheet is thin, crispy, and oily, but I always feel that it is not delicious enough.
Why is that? Huang Si felt that the taste was still different from normal pasta.
He pulled out the original bag of flour and looked at the ingredient list.
Main ingredient: wheat flour.
No additives? Huang Si scratched his head.
He pinched out a pinch of flour and continued to look inside.
Huang Si saw the molecular composition of the flour again, and this time, he pulled in and looked at it carefully, and finally found a molecule that he hadn't noticed before.
It was an extremely complex and huge molecule, at least much larger than starch and water molecules. It's just that this molecule is different from the bright-colored starch and water molecules, showing a faint gray color, so that Huang Si didn't notice it at first.
Its amount is also on the low side of flour.
What is this? Looks like a fighter in a molecule.
After thinking for a while, Huang Sicai realized that this is probably the protein component in flour?
Plant protein molecules?
It seems that this kind of thing provides part of the flavor and texture of the pancakes, which is why the pure starch pancakes made by Huang Si are not delicious enough.
According to Huang Si's memory, starch molecules are made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, while protein molecules are much more complex, at least there must be nitrogen molecules, and then there may also be elements such as iron.
But it doesn't matter, what matters is, can you try to replicate the protein molecule?
Trying to find a trace of power to envelop the plant protein molecule, Huang Si struggled to unravel and memorize its molecular structure.
Then the power condensed slightly.
A peculiar-looking macromolecule suddenly appeared near Huang Si, then produced a strange twist, and finally disintegrated into some short chains, which dissipated.
Failed, but it was okay, Huang Si tried a dozen more times.
Anyway, the operation at the molecular level, as long as the power thread he divided is fine enough, the consumption is very small.
After twenty-three attempts, Huang Si was finally able to condense a protein molecule with an intact structure that would not collapse.
Huang Si recorded the composition of protein molecules in his book.
Next, Huang Si kneaded the ordinary flour into a small dough, then looked at its onlooker structure, tried several times, and finally succeeded in making a dough with starch, water and protein that is no different from ordinary dough!
Get out of the pan and fry!
Eating the second version of the fried noodles, Huang Si was satisfied, the taste was crispy and delicious!
Huang Si also registered the dough structure of the second edition in the book.
But Huang Si made a mistake when facing fried dough, because the structure of fried dough is not single, if it is just according to what he learned in junior high school chemistry, the full gelatinization of starch in the frying process, and the denaturation of protein, these two are just that.
But the key is that the dough will have an overall change during the frying process, such as foaming, layering, and so on.
The resulting dough is not a simple chemical formula that can be manufactured in batches.
Huang Si tried until his strength ran out, but he couldn't completely replicate an oil cake. It seems that in the future, you can only use oil to fry the dough.
At lunch, Huang Si thoughtfully cut half of the potatoes and ham and stir-fried a dish, and chopped the carrots and threw them in. Carrots that have been left out for a long time are a little dehydrated at most, and they can still be eaten.
The staple food is still pancakes.
Huang Si, who ate what may be the last big meal in his life, touched his stomach and continued to spread it out in the living room.
Comfortable, although the last meal may not be the next meal.
He deliberately kept half of the potatoes and ham, maybe he could make some replicas based on them in the future?
After the strength was used up, there was nothing to do, and Huang Si, who was bored, checked the battery level of his mobile phone.
Only 69% of the battery is left.
To be reasonable, I used my mobile phone as a flashlight last night and shone it all night, and there is still 69% of the electricity today, and this battery is already very interesting.
Huang Si set the phone to super power-saving mode and threw it over. There is still no water or electricity in the house, and there is no energy source other than the creation of books to provide lighting.
couldn't play with his mobile phone, so Huang Si went to the study.
He has a lot of books in his study, and as an engineering student, he also has a lot of science books. Huang Si decided to find out if there were any chemistry books, which would definitely help him in his manufacturing career.
After a short time, Huang Si rummaged through the bookshelves.
However, what made him desperate was that he really hadn't bought any chemistry-related books.
Come to think of it, as a computer science graduate, just buy some physics and circuit-related books to read, is chemistry related to computers?
It doesn't matter much.
Huang Si couldn't help but ask himself: why am I not a chemistry major, and why did this book pick me as a computer science person to come here? It's so chemical, why don't you just find someone to study chemistry?
But now that it's a fait accompli, there's no way to worry.
Huang Si, who was extremely bored, could only casually find a copy of "VOA Constant Speed English: Science and Technology News" to read.
It's not that he wants to learn English, but he finds that this book hasn't been opened since he bought it, and since this room of books is his only remaining spiritual wealth, then why don't you have to read it carefully?
After watching Huang Si, he gave up, and he was not in the mood to learn English at all. After tossing it aside, he touched the novel again.
After a safe day, in the evening, Huang Si considered that if he stayed in this closed environment for a long time, he might have physical and mental health problems.
Fortunately, there is an elliptical machine at home as fitness equipment, although it is a bargain bought from Ma Yun's house for 899, and after a few uses, it has been gloriously turned into a rack for clothes.
But now, it seems to come in handy?
Huang Si stepped on the elliptical machine for half an hour, until he was out of breath and sweating profusely.
Then he went to the bathroom, condensed a large amount of water on the surface of his body, and showered himself with a shower.
The power consumed by simply condensing water molecules is very small, and after showering, it is at most 1 unit of power.
Huang Si felt the recovery speed in his body, and this bit of strength could be recovered after just a while.
After taking a bath and feeling a lot refreshed, Huang Si put on his pajamas and went to bed.
It's only 8 o'clock. Once you don't have a mobile phone or computer to play, you can't surf the Internet or play games, this time becomes particularly difficult.
Huang Si flipped through his bookshelf again, and there were half of the professional books on the shelves, as well as dozens of social science books, such as "Someone Changed China" and the like. and a whole bunch of textbooks for learning English, as he prepares for an IELTS exam recently. And then there's all sorts of idle books.
Huang Si now regrets that he didn't bring more books from his hometown. He had two sets of encyclopedias and a whole set of 100,000 whys, but these were the books he read as a child, and he stayed at his parents' house after he came out to work.
Think about it carefully, if he had those three sets of basic popular science books in his hands, wouldn't he want anything, and he wouldn't be blind to making things!
Huang Si regretted it while touching a novel and lying on the bed to read it.
The novel was not very good, Huang Si read it absent-mindedly, and then, suddenly, he felt that he had missed something important.
Encyclopedia?
Encyclopedia to help make things?
Because there is a more detailed explanation above?
"Damn!"
Huang Sishu didn't look at it anymore, threw it to the side of the bed, and jumped up from the bed with a straight carp, how could he forget this, in his laptop, there is a full set of Wikipedia offline versions!
It was a good way to learn English that he had searched for, so he downloaded the Chinese and English Wikipedia databases, and then used a software to read them out and make an offline version of the browser.
In this way, he can easily learn English through bilingualism in Chinese and English.
But...... Isn't that the most precious and important treasure?
The simplification of the crystallization of human civilization, Wikipedia bilingual offline version in Chinese and English!
I didn't read the book, I didn't sleep, Huang Si jumped up, and ran to the study without wearing slippers.
There is no electricity now, but his laptop is plugged in all year round, so the battery must be full now.
Huang Si immediately turned on the phone.
The familiar system interface appeared, and Huang Si clicked on the database program on the desktop.
The English and Chinese versions of Wikipedia were opened by him one by one.
Now, he can consult any of the entries. Although the description is relatively brief, there is all the knowledge you should have, including molecular formulas and so on!
Great, great! Huang Si cried with joy, he has never been so grateful that he has been studying English and preparing for the IELTS exam recently.
However, it was not too early to be happy, Huang Si glanced at the battery level in the lower right corner of the screen.
99%, it's still sufficient, he clicked, and the system prompted: It can still be used for 5 hours and 32 minutes.
In other words, he only had five and a half hours to review the data.
Thinking of this, Huang Si immediately closed the database, and then clicked shutdown.
After the laptop screen went black, Huang Si pondered in the dark room for a while.
It seems that it is necessary to plan the use of these five and a half hours well.
Huang Si took out the pen and paper, put the creation book aside to illuminate, and tapped the tip of the pen on the paper.
He is not a short-sighted person, and he does not regard these five and a half hours as an absolute limit.
The top priority is to find a way to keep the laptop in use before the five and a half hours are consumed.
That is, find a way to provide it with energy, recharge!
Huang Si looked at the creation book that radiated a bright light on the side.
The book is providing light, and this light is currently the only inexhaustible source of energy in this room.
Other energy sources, Huang Si thought to himself, although he can't create energy directly, he can create matter.
And there is also energy in matter!
For example, liquefied petroleum gas, for example, batteries, these things have energy.
Huang Si has already tried, and he cannot make changes to the existing matter, that is, his power can only be used to create, and cannot directly change the object itself.
So he can't restore a dead phone to a battery.
Then charging, you can only start from the outside and find a way to generate electricity.
Huang Si drew a mind map on paper.
In the middle of the mind map, he wrote the word "energy".
Then, extend out four branches:
"Light energy", "chemical energy", "electrical energy", "thermal energy".
Next to chemical energy, Huang Si wrote: "carbon battery", "alkaline battery".
Next to the light energy, it is written "solar cells".
Next to thermal energy, it is written "steam generator".
Next to electrical energy, "direct current" and "alternating current" are written.
Then he connected the three types of batteries to direct current, and the generator to alternating current.
