Chapter 53: Making Yogurt
As the sun sets, the sunset gradually recedes, and the sky darkens. At this time, two figures came from a distance, a man and a woman; The man is tall and handsome, and the woman is delicate and feminine, which is a good match.
"Xianggong, call the door, right?" Su Su and Gongsun Yan walked to the gate of the Qin family, looked at the time, and felt that the time was about the same, so they were ready to call the Qin family.
"Bang bang bang-" Gongsun Yan took a few steps forward and knocked on the door.
"Who? Here comes ......" From inside the door came the voice of a young man, followed by footsteps, accompanied by the sound of 'squeak' opening the door, and a person wearing the Qin family's clothes came out from inside.
"Who are you two looking for?" The janitor of the Qin family saw that Su Su and the two had never seen each other, so he asked curiously.
"This little brother, is this Qin Huaihai Qin Old Man's Mansion?" Su Su asked him with a smile.
"Yes." The little girl replied with a smile, "Are you two looking for my master?" β
"We are looking for your Miss Qin Youran, if you tell her that my name is Susu, she will know who I am."
"Oh, okay, you two wait a minute, the little one will send someone to report." After the janitor finished speaking, he found someone to inform the young lady.
After waiting for a while, he walked out of the inner courtyard with Wanyun and Wanxue and a few family members.
"Susu, Gongsun Yan, you're here!" Walk into them with a leisurely smile.
Xiao Ran ...... Sister, we're here to bring you something. Su Su saw Ran come out leisurely and greeted him happily. Originally, she wanted to be called 'Lord Xiao Ran', but suddenly she thought of the daytime and told them not to call her adult, but to call her girl, miss, sister.
"Uh-huh, you've come a long way, haven't you? Come on in......" looked at her with a leisurely smile and winked at her.
"Well, good!" Su Su nodded, almost bursting out laughing, but fortunately she couldn't hold back, otherwise this scene would be ruined.
"Let's go~" He turned around with a leisurely smile and led them into the Qin Mansion, and then instructed the family on the side, "You send two people over and bring in the boxes brought by these two." β
"Yes, Miss!" The housekeeper saluted, and then went out to carry the box.
Leisurely in the courtyard, they went in with their front feet, and Qin Yanran came over with their back feet. Before he entered the house, he began to ask Youran, "You'er, I heard that you have a guest?" β
Leisurely walked over to meet him, and said with a smile: "Brother, are you here?" Come on, I'll introduce you to someone. β
With a light smile on the corner of his mouth, Qin Yanran followed behind her gracefully, ready to see who was coming?
"Brother, this is my good friends Gongsun Yan and Su Su when I was in Lingyun Peak, the two of them are a young couple." Leisurely smiled and introduced the two parties, "Gongsun Yan, Su Su, this is my brother Qin Yanran." β
"Hello!" Qin Haoran smiled and nodded to them, which was regarded as a greeting.
Gongsun Yan arched his hand and said, "Gongzi Qin."
"Alright, everyone sit down! Evening clouds and late snow prepare refreshments. Said after seeing the two sides say hello.
"Yes, miss."
"Miss Xiaoran, this box of things was sent by your foreign friends, and they couldn't find you, so they sent it to my house." After a few people sat down, Gongsun Yan opened his mouth to explain the purpose of their visit.
"Really? What are they? Leisurely tried to surprise herself as much as possible, although she already knew what was inside, but she still had to pretend not to know.
"Sister Xiao Ran, this is the key." Su Su handed over a key, which was used to open the box and lock it.
He took it with a leisurely smile, walked to the box, and opened the lock. Lift the lid on the top, and inside are bags of neatly stacked seeds and saplings.
"Seeds?" Qin Haoran walked to Youran's side, looked at the contents of the box, and asked in surprise.
"Yes...... nodded leisurely, reaching out and picking up two packets of seeds to look around.
"Are these the seeds of fruits and vegetables?" Qin Yanran turned his head curiously and asked leisurely.
"Only a few packets are fruit and vegetable, and the rest are flower seeds." Leisurely put the seeds in his hand back into the box, turned his head and grinned at him.
"What do you want so many flower seeds for?"
"Secret." Winked at him leisurely and said mysteriously.
Qin Yanran smiled helplessly and shook his head gently, "You, you like to toss!" β
Youran hooked the corners of her mouth slightly, and didn't say anything.
β¦β¦
"Smack-" A hot cup of tea was smashed towards the two people who were kneeling on the ground.
"O forgiveness ma'am!" Xiao San'er and Xiao Quanzi, who were kneeling on the ground, didn't dare to get up at will, so they could only lie on the ground and let the broken teacups and hot tea splash on their bodies.
"Forgiveness? Hum! Useless things, such a small thing can't be done, and you still want me to forgive you? Ren Fu, pull them out and give me a heavy beating! Wang Hui said angrily.
"Yes, ma'am." Butler Ren Fu commanded. Then he waved his hand outside, called in four family members, and two pulled one and dragged the two people who were lying on the ground out.
"Madame, spare your life! Madameβ"
"Hmph......" Wang Hui snorted fiercely, picked up the freshly poured tea from the red hearts, took a sip, and said, "Manager Ren, what kind of shit luck do you say this Qin Huaihai and their family have taken?" Why can't you fix them every time, but make them more and more frustrated? β
"Ma'am, shall we continue?" Butler Ren asked with his head down.
"Don't act yet, when the master comes back in the evening, I will discuss with him, and then we are talking about what to do next!"
"Yes, ma'am." Ren Fu bowed and retreated.
Wang Hui looked into the distance with cold eyes, didn't know what to think, and put the tea lid in his hand back on the tea cup, then put it on the tea table, stood up and walked outside without saying a word.
Another day.
"Miss, Uncle Wu has sent you the milk you wanted, there are four big buckets!" Wanyun ran into the house with a smile and said to Youran.
As soon as he had breakfast in the morning, he leisurely instructed his subordinates to go to Zhuangzi to find Uncle Dawu, the eldest son of Tian Bo, and asked him to go to the villages below Nancang County to find out if there was any milk? If you have, get as many as you can.
Unexpectedly, it was not yet noon, and he got the things; This work efficiency is too high, give praise!
"Let's go, Wanyun, you go and ask Uncle Dawu to bring the milk to the kitchen." If you are in high spirits, you will go outside with the evening snow and evening clouds.
"Yes, miss." Wanyun ran away with a grin.
In the kitchen, looking at the four large vats full of milk in front of me, my eyes almost straightened. I kept fantasizing about all kinds of delicacies made from milk, and I couldn't help but secrete my saliva.
"Uncle Wu, thank you, and thank you for your hard work!" Said to Tian Dawu with a leisurely smile.
"No, it's not hard, it's what a slave should do to do things for Miss, it's not hard or hard!" Tian Dawu was a little embarrassed by the leisurely politeness, and shook his hand at the leisurely manner.
Leisurely grinned and didn't say anything, just nodded in response to him.
"Hey...... Then, if the eldest lady has nothing to do, the slave will go back to Zhuangzi. In the future, if the young lady has anything to do, just tell her subordinates to come to the Zhuangzi to find me! Tian Dawu saw Youran smiling at him, he also stood stupidly and scratched the back of his head, and then patted his chest and said to Youran.
"Okay, Uncle Wu, if you're busy, go back first." Leisurely nodded in agreement.
"Yes, the minion stepped back." Tian Dawu saluted and left.
Turning around leisurely, she looked at the four large buckets of milk on the ground, thought for a moment, and then told the cooks to come and help her.
First of all, let the milk be divided into several portions and sterilized separately; In ancient times, there were no high-tech devices that could eliminate bacteria in milk, and they could only be sterilized by boiling at high temperatures.
Boiling raw milk, on the other hand, is a very particular thing, and it can neither be boiled for too long nor too short. If it is too long, the nutrients in the milk will be lost; If it is too short, it will not play a sterilizing role.
Then you can't boil it for too long when you boil it, there will be carcinogens produced, so you must be cautious when cooking!
While leisurely sharing the milk, he talked about the precautions to the big guys.
"Miss, how do you cook it?" Wanyun was almost dizzy when she heard it, and she really couldn't figure out how to cook it so that it could be considered just right for a short time?
"We heat it over high heat, remove it from the heat as soon as the milk is about to boil, and then heat it up, and we do that three or four times." As he spoke, he left it to everyone for a demonstration.
Once you've cooked a pot, put it in a porcelain container and set it aside for the cooks to cook the others. And the one she cooked was ready to be made into sour milk.
Let Wanxue go back to their courtyard and get the old yogurt that Su Su brought yesterday, and she wants to use it as an introduction.
When the milk is cooled to about 60 degrees, because the milk is too pure, there will be a thick layer of milk skin on the surface, gently pick it out with clean chopsticks and put it aside, and then add a certain proportion of yogurt primer to the milk, fill it and stir evenly; The last step is to close the lid of the container, wrap it tightly with a thin quilt, and put it in a place where the temperature is between 10 and 15 degrees Celsius for fermentation, about 10 hours, that is, more than five hours.
Black and White Impermanence brought her about 300 milliliters of old yogurt this time, and leisurely used all of them as an introduction. Probably tomorrow the batch of yogurt she made will be ripe and ready to eat.
I can't help but drool just thinking about it. Y(^_^)Y
"Miss, is that all right?" Wan Xue saw that she clapped her hands leisurely, looking like she was done, and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Well, it's done!" He nodded his head with a leisurely smile, and looked at the six yogurts he had made in porcelain jars, feeling a special sense of accomplishment.
"Miss, what should I do with the rest of the milk?" Wanyun is worried, there are still three porcelain jars of milk here!
"Hmm-" Leisurely touching his chin, his eyes rolled, and a flash of inspiration flashed, he said, "One jar is left to drink like this, and the other two jars can be made into food!"
Later, when the Qin family had lunch at noon, they saw a few dishes made of milk on the table.
Milk stew, which is made leisurely for her younger brothers and sisters, is pure and milky, smooth and tender, sweet and delicious. The two little ones couldn't even bother to speak, and only ate their share of the custard wholeheartedly.
"Hmm~ You'er, this cup of milk peanut rice milk tastes good! How? Qin Yanran drank most of the bowl in one go, and said to Youran very enjoyed.
"yes, I love it too!" I also took a sip with a leisurely smile, and then said: "I boiled the peeled peanuts with milk and rice, stirred with a mallet while cooking, until it was stirred into rice milk, and added honey to taste before leaving the pot."
"Haha, sure enough, the food made with heart is the most delicious! Our family's You'er is the most attentive! Qin Huaihai glanced at his wife with a laugh and said with praise.
"Hmm!" Qin Mu nodded with a smile, and looked at the leisurely eyes full of doting smiles.
"Daddy, big brother, try this, mushroom milk soup, the taste is different from that rice milk, try it, do you like it or not?" Leisurely said, each of them served a small bowl and handed it over.
"Well, that's good! Daddy loves this. Father Qin took a sip, his mouth was full of milky flavor, and the taste was not sweet, but fresh and salty, which was very suitable for people like him who didn't like sweetness.
"If Daddy likes it, it's fine!" Smiled leisurely and bent a pair of apricot eyes, which were as bright as the crescent moon in the night sky.
"Here, let's try something else."
"Okay, let's tasteβ"
"You'er, you can eat more ...... too"
