For the treasures that Ivan brought today, Dong Xiaowan was full of curiosity.

According to Ivan, these things are called liquefied gas, liquefied gas stoves, stainless steel steamers, and non-stick pans.

Stainless steel steamers and non-stick pans aside, she's already seen even more amazing pressure cookers, so she doesn't think it's too unusual.

Of course, she sighed at the exquisiteness of Western craftsmanship.

As for the liquefied gas and liquefied gas stove, she is full of curiosity, because Ivan said that this can be used to make a fire to stir-fry vegetables and steam steamed buns.

How is this possible?

She watched around for a long time, but she didn't see the reason, and now she finally had a chance.

I saw Ivan fill the bottom pot of the stainless steel steamer with one-third of the water, and then put it on the liquefied gas stove.

Then, Ivan twisted a knob on the liquefied gas cylinder, and then twisted a knob on the liquefied gas stove, only to hear a "click", and the blue flame "bang" came out and began to burn the steamer.

It's amazing!

Dong Xiaowan was dumbfounded.

"Why is this possible?"

The sudden burst of flames really subverted her cognition.

"Do you know about oil and fierce fire oil?"

Ivan had to explain it again with some words.

Bringing something new from reality is a bit of a problem.

Dong Xiaowan nodded.

She still knows about oil and fierce fire oil.

Two years ago, a county school teacher named Song Yingxing compiled and published a set of books that caused a sensation in the entire Ming Dynasty, called "Heavenly Works".

That year, Dong Xiaowan was exactly thirteen years old, and her father had not had an accident at that time, and the family road had not yet fallen, because the Dong family opened an embroidery village, and the illustrated "Heavenly Creation" happened to have this content, so her father bought a complete set.

It's a pity that after the book was bought, his father had an accident before he could read it.

Out of curiosity, Dong Xiaowan also flipped through this set of books, which happened to make a systematic description of the oil exploitation process, and she remembered it very clearly.

She just didn't understand what this liquefied gas, which could automatically ignite, had anything to do with oil.

It's good to know!

Ivan breathed a sigh of relief.

The reason why he dared to bring this thing was because he consulted the information and knew that the Ming Dynasty was no stranger to the use of oil, and it was often used to attack cities.

That's easy to explain.

"In the ground full of oil, there is also a gas called natural gas. Westerners have found that as long as this gas is compressed, it will become liquid, and after this gas is put into a sealed bottle, as soon as it is released, it is still a little bit, so they call this natural gas that is compressed into a liquid liquefied gas. ”

Because when I talked to Dong Xiaowan about the pressure cooker, I had already talked about the concept of gas compression, so it was not too difficult to explain it now.

Dong Xiaowan nodded as if he didn't understand, and asked again, "Then why didn't you light the fire?"

Ivan: "......"

When you meet a curious baby, there are so many questions to explain!

He pointed to a small bump in the middle of the liquefied gas stove: "See, there is a flint-like device here, and when the knob below is twisted, it will release gas and trigger sparks at the same time." ”

In order to let Dong Xiaowan see clearly, he had to turn off the fire and fire again.

Now Dong Xiaowan finally saw it clearly.

She exclaimed again, "It's amazing!

Ivan: "......"

Fortunately, this suggestion uses a mechanical ignition device similar to a disposable lighter, and if it is a battery, it really can't be explained.

After explaining, Ivan was finally able to steam the dumplings.

A few minutes later, Dong Xiaowan shrugged her nose and suddenly said, "Okay, I already smell the smell of shrimp." ”

Ivan: "......"

It's worse than a dog's nose.

He found that after steaming dumplings many times, Dong Xiaowan didn't need to look at the timing of the hourglass at all, and could accurately judge the heat of the steamed dumplings just by relying on his nose and experience.

She is really talented in cooking!

Ivan had to accept this.

He lifted the lid of the steamer and looked, and sure enough, the crystal clear shrimp dumplings were presented in front of him, and the heat was indeed just right.

Dong Xiaowan took the initiative to take on the responsibility of a taster.

"Well, the shrimp dumplings stuffed with lotus root taste really better, this one is more crispy, and there is a hint of sweetness of lotus root, and there is a feeling of tongue when you chew it. ”

After a pause, she added: "But I think the amount of lotus root can be a little more, so that the taste may be better." ”

Dong Xiaowan is still continuing.

She picked up the next dumpling.

After yesterday's tasting, she had learned her lesson, and she only took one bite of the dumplings that she was not completely satisfied with, and then put them on hold.

"This one is a little bit better, but the lotus root could be a little bit more. ”

Next.

"Well, this one is the best, and it tastes great!"

Dong Xiaowan actually began to chew again regardless of the image.

At this moment, another "ding" sound sounded in Ivan's mind.

Ivan was overjoyed.

Could it be that the masterpiece is freshly baked?

But he was immediately disappointed.

"Congratulations to the host, on the basis of the first-class crystal shrimp dumplings, the new product has been trial-produced, the quality is better, and 1000 points will be awarded. ”

Ivan: "......"

That's it?

Gone?

What about the best of the best?

This disappointed him slightly.

Facts have proved that he changed the lotus root to replace the baby cabbage to make the shrimp slippery filling, which should be effective, but it still can't reach the level of a masterpiece.

Why is that?

He couldn't help but think of what Jiang Menglin had told him, where it is top-notch and delicious, the ingredients must be the best.

This is the best, which refers to the best parts of the body of the top ingredients, for example, to make shrimp slippery, you should use the most elastic meat of the 7 sections of the shrimp belly.

Let's do it!

Ivan didn't say a word, and immediately moved again.

Dong Xiaowan was also interested, and they also moved together.

It's just that in this way, the ingredients are really a bit wasteful.

A large green shrimp was originally only five or six centimeters long, and now if the breast, which has the most meat, is removed, the usable part is not even one-third of the original one-third.

Waste is waste.

Ivan let it go.

Not only that, but he only chose the crispest and most tender part of the lotus root, and he threw the rest aside.

After another period of busyness, another batch of crystal lotus root shrimp dumplings was freshly baked.

"It tastes really good, I can eat a large plate by myself. ”

After Dong Xiaowan swallowed a few shrimp dumplings in a row, the evaluation finally came, but it was very general.

It may be that there is a lack of the right words of praise.

But her eating appearance is the best evaluation.

Ivan himself tasted two.

He was also very satisfied with the taste.

He felt that he could not make better shrimp dumplings than this.

But......

The system beep he wanted didn't come.

Why?

He couldn't help but roar in his consciousness.

"Come on, this shrimp dumpling is only a thin line away from the superb. ”

The system finally responded.
