Chapter 4 Fragrant scallion pancakes
From today on, I want to be a filial child, and compensate her for all the suffering that my mother has suffered over the years, although I have no blood relationship with her, but I now occupy the body of someone else's son after all. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
And this filial piety starts with letting her eat a good meal.
When he carried a few stones selected by Wang Xu back to the tribal station, although his strength was more than 1,000 catties, he was still tired and out of strength, lying on the ground like a livestock gasping for breath.
"Tamping goods, it's really useless. ”
Wang Xu kicked Mang's ass heavily.
"Go and find Kang, Jian, Wei, and Min, and tell them to help me with their work, and I will treat them to delicious food in the evening." ”
The temptation to eat is not ordinarily great for Mang, especially for the barbarian boy who is extremely lacking in material resources and starvation is a common thing, as soon as he hears that there will be delicious food tonight, he immediately forgets his exhaustion, and the speed is even faster than the wind rabbit in the woods.
However, in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen barbarian teenagers were dragged in front of Wang Xu by recklessly.
In order to eat, Wang Xu really spent a lot of money, more than a dozen teenagers, and were soon divided into four groups, one group helped Wang Xu make a stone mill, and was responsible for grinding the wheat ears that had already been dried into flour, and one group went to the mountains to peel the tree membrane of Tiankun tree, which has small holes that can separate wheat bran from flour.
The remaining group is responsible for digging up soil and stones in the mountains that were gnawed off by Ying Long before, Wang Xu has tasted it, the soil and stones there are full of salt, as long as the method is appropriate, with Wang Xu's current ability, he can completely extract salt from it.
The last group was assigned to cut the syrup on the side of the sugar water tree, the so-called sugar water tree is actually a maple tree, which contains rich maple syrup, but the barbarians do not know the technology of refining maple sugar, so they can only look at the large maple forest and lament that they can't eat at all.
After assigning the task, Wang Xu himself also devoted himself to the complicated work, and he took out the Vientiane pen from his arms, which was a treasure specially used to carve the array talisman given to him by Yu Linglong.
The original engraving of the array must be supported by the vitality of the vitality, but on the body of the Vientiane pen, there is an engraving specially used to absorb the vitality of heaven and earth, which can automatically absorb the vitality and store it in the pen, there is no need to use the vitality in the body at all, it is extremely suitable for Wang Xu, who has not practiced martial arts at all, and has not formed a little bit of vitality in the body to use.
Moved out of his own stone cauldron and carved a rune on it with a Vientiane pen that specially absorbs the heat of the sun's rays, this kind of rune is the simplest inheritance in his mind, and it can be done in three or five minutes, and it doesn't cost much soul power at all.
Wang Xu carved a sun-absorbing pattern on a flat stone slab, a slightly curved stone slab, the previous stone kettle, can only be used to steam rice, in addition to the rice cooker, there must also be a wok and a cake pan, right?
After all this, the quarrying team had already rushed back with large pieces of stones, and Wang Xu instructed them to grind the large stones into powder, and then use stone buckets to bring water and soak the black powder in it.
When the water in the stone bucket completely changed color, Wang Xu found a few pieces of animal skin, there was no linen, he had to use this kind of thing as a filter cloth, the animal skin was dipped in water, and then put it in the stone bucket again to filter and soak it repeatedly, and then put it in the sun to dry, but in the blink of an eye, a large piece of snow-white crystals formed on the animal skin.
This is salt, although the purity is not at all comparable to the iodized salt made by the earth, but in this barbarian realm that is completely uncivilized, this can definitely be said to be a great achievement.
After refining half a pot of salt, Wang Xu stopped what he was doing, poured the syrup collected by the sugar picking group into the stone bucket one by one, carved a sun-absorbing pattern on the stone bucket, and began to boil maple sugar with the sun-absorbing pattern.
The heat generated by the sunset is very sufficient, less than half an hour, the water in the syrup has been completely dried, put it in the sunset that has begun to fall for a while, it is the maple syrup that can be preserved for a long time, take out a piece and put it in your mouth, sweet with a little natural aroma of maple, beautiful!
A-Niang came back from outside dejectedly, the tattered animal skin in her hand was beaten into a big package, and she began to complain before she entered the house.
"This Shanghai is really getting more and more excessive, in the prey allocated before, there is still a little meat, this time, why did you give me these things. ”
Wang Xu took the animal skin burden from Ah Niang's hand and opened it, there was only a large piece of coagulated grease on the skin of the beast, white and miserable, a boxy boss, and then a few big stick bones, the bones were full of white tendons, and there were a little bones in the middle.
"Hey, the things to be prepared now, but all are ready, this Shanghai, but thoughtful, Lao Tzu wants to eat scallion pancakes, he sent us oil, and even the ingredients for the big bone broth are ready for us!"
Wang Xu shouted excitedly, picked up the bones and grease in A-Niang's hand, and ran away.
Along the way, there are always a lot of wild vegetables, among which there are a lot of wild onions, Wang Xu picked a few casually, washed and peeled them in the pond at the door, and chopped them with a stone knife.
At this time, the flour grinding group had already ground out the flour and asked Wang Xu to go over to see, Wang Xu made a sieve with tree film, and put a clean animal skin underneath, and the hairless side was facing up, and a sieve was used to sieve the tree film, and the bran skin was left in the sieve, and the flour was spread on the animal skin.
Due to the poor grinding process and the lack of bleaching, the flour is pale yellow, and if you steam steamed buns, you will inevitably have a rough grain feeling.
However, if it is baked into scallion pancakes, it is definitely a mouth-watering super delicacy just by smelling it.
Wang Xu picked up a large ball of flour, mixed the chopped green onion with a large piece of fat, then salt, and water to form a dough, and kneaded it vigorously.
When the dough woke up, it was already sunset, Wang Xu skillfully played with both hands, let the sun-absorbing pattern dissipate the heat absorbed during the day, and put a small piece of grease on the stone slab that was used as a cake pan.
The grease was quickly dissolved by the intense heat, making a sizzling sound, and a large piece of dough was pressed down, and soon a tempting golden color hung on the side that came into contact with the slate.
Turned over, out of the pot, the thick aroma of oil cakes diffused in the air, swallowing saliva recklessly, just wanted to reach out to take it, but Wang Xu mercilessly slapped him away, Lao Tzu is a filial son, this first piece of cake, must be eaten by A-Niang first.
The sun, which had lost its brilliance, soon fell behind the mountain, and the children, who had been busy all afternoon, sat in front of Wang Xu's house with their tired bodies, their eyes staring closely at the large number of dough cakes placed in the stone plate, swallowing saliva from time to time, and their eyes clearly shining with greedy blood.
If it weren't for the fists of this guy, these guys would have turned into beasts and rushed up mercilessly, taking all those delicious things into their stomachs.
The two teenagers staggered out of the tree house with two huge stone buckets, filled with a snow-white soup like milk, with a rich aroma mixed with steaming water vapor, which almost made everyone's saliva flow down the corners of their mouths.
Wang Xu's face was depressed, he just smashed those bones open, let the bone marrow melt into the soup, by the way, he ordered a few points of fat, added some wild onions, wild ginger and other seasonings to the soup, and sprinkled a few handfuls of salt, as for making you hungry like this?
"A-Niang, come and try your son's handiwork. ”
Wang Xu helped his mother to sit down on the bluestone slab at the door, put two flatbreads that were still a little hot in front of his mother, and waved his hand at Mang, who immediately brought a big stone bowl with considerable discernment, and a large bowl of bone broth was carried in the stone bowl.
The bone broth is bright and mellow, with snow-white and translucent oil flowers floating on it, wild onions and oil, and a large piece of tendons and bones connected with a little bit of meat star.
Two oil cakes, one is salty, and the other is spread on the cake surface with maple syrup, sweet syrup, with salty scallion pancakes, bite into the mouth, it is simply the most delicious food in the world.
"Xu'er, you are awesome. ”
Ah Niang took a sip of the soup bowl and secretly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, the child finally grew up and was able to survive independently, so that he would not go hungry in the days to come, for a barbarian, this sense of accomplishment is no less than someone on the earth who has found a job with a monthly income of absolutely no less than five figures.
As a mother, it is natural to be able to see her son have this kind of achievement, and that kind of pride.
"It's delicious, it's delicious! To be able to eat such a delicious thing, even if it is tomorrow to meet your father in heaven, A-Niang is also content. ”
Ah Niang choked and kept stuffing the bread into her mouth, the tears in her eyes couldn't stop no matter what, the barbarians have been short of food and clothing since ancient times, but her own son can make such a delicacy from the wolf's tail grass that ordinary people don't even look at, with this craft, I am afraid that my son will not be able to eat enough in the future?
Thinking that her son would never have to go hungry in the future, A-Niang's heart immediately surged, and the grievances over the years were mixed with emotion, making her cry while eating, and no matter how Wang Xu persuaded her, it was useless.
As for the others, it was completely out of control, they were like locusts in a large field of crops, and they quickly launched a swift attack on the big bone broth and scallion pancakes with the momentum of the wind and clouds, but in the blink of an eye, they were already attacking the city, completely destroying the enemy.
