Chapter 39: Making the Cake

When she came out of the farm, Zhang Xiaoxue wanted to try the consciousness operation and put the waste straw on the firewood.

Like a thief, when she saw that Zhang's mother and aunt didn't look this way, Zhang Xiaoxue's mind moved, and a rectangular discarded orange pole compression appeared on the firewood pile.

This is a bit obvious, and the firewood at the bottom is very different, mainly the waste orange pole is compressed too tightly by the system, boxy, one next to the other, although the size of the waste orange pole is different, the thickness is also different, several varieties, but there is no gap between them, it looks like it is packed.

Hey! This was seen by the family and had to take a lot of saliva, and I had to continue to make up the reason, it was really a headless, and there was no way to do it, so it could only be like this.

This time, by the way, in the warehouse, Zhang Xiaoxue took out the firewood chopped by Zhang Xiaoxue on the mountain, and there was also a small pile.

It's not early, it's time to make lunch. Zhang Xiaoxue went to the kitchen and took out the six eggplants stolen from the warehouse with her mind, preparing to make a braised eggplant to eat at noon today, then stuff with rice, and then stew two eggs for Bin'er.

Zhang Xiaoxue is particularly good at the dish of braised eggplant, and when friends came to dinner at home in the past, Zhang Xiaoxue would make this dish to entertain friends, and they would praise this dish for being delicious.

Zhang Xiaoxue washed the eggplant and cut it vertically into 4 strips, then cut it horizontally into sections, and used half of the pork belly left by Zhang's mother last time to cut it into shreds.

There were no fresh chili peppers at home, so Zhang Xiaoxue used dried chili peppers. Slice the chili pepper and crush the garlic.

After the fire is boiled, pour oil into the pot to heat, put the cut eggplant into the pot and fry it immediately, this is the key step to make this dish delicious, if you omit the step of fried eggplant, the taste of this dish will be much worse.

Put two spoons of oil in the pot again, first fry the chili pepper and garlic, then add the shredded meat and stir-fry until it changes color, then add the fried eggplant, add soy sauce and a little honey to taste, and then you can get out of the pot.

The honey here should actually be flavored with white sugar, but there is no white sugar at home, so Zhang Xiaoxue still uses a little bit of honey instead.

After Zhang Xiaoxue finished all the meals, Bin'er also went home to eat, hehe, this time all the children looked for their own mothers and went back to their respective homes, and agreed to go to fight sparrows again after eating, they seemed to really want to eat this dish made of sparrows.

The eldest aunt and Zhang's mother also hurriedly finished eating at noon and hurried to spread the pancakes, the two of them really raced against time and did not want to waste any time, of course, the eldest aunt also ate here, and several people were full of praise for the dish of braised eggplant.

The people here have never seen such a dish as eggplant, remembering that these six eggplants were stolen from Mu Yiyi's farm, Zhang Xiaoxue casually made up that it was given by her senior sister, and now Zhang Xiaoxue is really not red and out of breath when she is lying.

Because there are pancakes at home, the male laborers of both families bring pancakes to the field to eat at noon, and they don't have to bring them food, which saves a lot of trouble.

This pancake Zhang's mother doesn't need her help, Zhang Xiaoxue is fine after eating, and she got up very early this morning, so Zhang Xiaoxue plans to take a nap to make up for sleep, not to mention, she is indeed sleepy, and she fell asleep after a while next to the pillow.

I slept for two or three hours. When I woke up, I didn't have anything to do, and I thought that I was going to entertain the children at home this afternoon, so I might as well make a little snack at home to entertain the children.

Zhang Xiaoxue thought about it, there is no sugar at home, so she can only use honey instead, and there are no things like yeast and milk, so she suddenly remembered that cakes can be made without yeast.

And the oven obtained by the lottery has not been used, so Zhang Xiaoxue decided to make a big cake for the children to eat.

Thinking of this, I started to prepare for it, and first took out the oven and put it in the kitchen.

The capacity of this oven is large enough, Zhang Xiaoxue is ready to make a twelve-inch cake, although there are many people, but it should be enough, anyway, it is not to let them eat enough, just to taste it.

In the past, when I made cakes at home, I mostly made a six-inch or eight-inch small cake, but now I want to make a 12-inch one, Zhang Xiaoxue calculated the eggs needed in her heart, and ten eggs should be enough.

Separate the egg yolk from the egg white first, because there is no electric whisk here, so Zhang Xiaoxue is ready to stir out the most troublesome egg white first.

Alas, it's just that this stirring egg white is really too tiring, Zhang Xiaoxue took two pairs of chopsticks and stirred them together, and wanted to give up several times, it was really tiring, and the two arms were used alternately, and they were all sore and painful.

After stirring for a long time, I missed the modern electric whisk very much, gritted my teeth and persevered, the egg white was finally stirred, it looked very much like white cream, I picked up the basin and looked at it upside down, and it didn't fall down, haha, it's finally done!

It's really not easy to eat something delicious! I made myself so tired and said that I wanted to invite the children to eat cake, but in fact, Zhang Xiaoxue, a foodie, wanted to eat it myself.

Add water, honey and oil to the egg yolk and stir it together, and the egg yolk liquid is very beautiful after stirring.

Then the flour is added inside, because there is no sieve, so the flour should be added slowly.

When stirring, you can't stir casually, you have to stir up and down, left and right or rice, you can't make circles, if you make circles when stirring, the flour will be strong, and the taste of the baked cake will be much worse.

After stirring the flour and egg yolk liquid until there are no small particles. Stir together the beaten egg whites and egg yolks in three times, mix well, and pour into a container.

By the way, there is no container for making cakes at home, what can I do? Zhang Xiaoxue was stumped all of a sudden.

The pots at home are all porcelain, there is no iron at all, and the iron here is very expensive, so if you can use iron, you don't need it, and there will be no iron basin at home.

It's really terrible, it's hard to put it in a porcelain basin and steam the cake in the pot, but the steamed cake is not the same as the baked cake at all, and the taste will be much worse.

Annoying, when I have money, I will definitely buy it ten or eight iron basins, Zhang Xiaoxue thought of it with hatred in her heart.

Zhang Xiaoxue inadvertently opened the sliding door of the oven, hehe, the baking tray inside is quite deep, although it is rectangular, but it is used to bake cakes, it should be possible, no one stipulates that the cake must be baked round.

There is no one who is in this mood, and when Zhang Xiaoxue pours the cake liquid into the baking tray and puts it away, he begins to study this source energy oven.
