Chapter 129: Make a sugar gourd
Dango knows a lot of things that don't exist in this world, but most of those things, most of which can't be made in this backward world.
However, sugar gourd, a low-grade food, of course, does not need high wisdom.
"Oh, isn't the sugar gourd sweet on the outside and sour on the inside, but it's not delicious." Xiao Ayu frowned.
Xiao Ayu is not a picky eater, as long as any food is given to her, she will eat it.
Even if the sugar gourd is particularly unpalatable, I will endure the discomfort in my heart and eat it.
[Your fruit is originally sweet, so it won't be sour in it, and you tasted sour before because the hawthorn in it was sour. 】
[Generally, food does not change its taste, of course, sometimes it is not good to operate, and it may turn sweet things into sour. 】
Tuanzi explained to Xiao Ayu about the theory of food, but Xiao Ayu heard it in a fog, and in the end he only understood it, and when they made this fruit, it might be sweet.
"But we don't have any sugar at home."
The old Wang family only has a little bit of sugar, which is usually not used, and sometimes the old lady Wang will mix a little sugar water for Xiao Ayu to drink, and other people don't have this blessing.
Qin Huai: "My family has it, what are you going to do?" ”
Xiao Ayu: "I want to make a sugar gourd, which is the same sugar gourd I used to eat, but I don't know if it will be delicious." ”
Qin Huai thought again that he had brought a string of sugar gourds over and wanted to give it to her, but she said that she didn't like it.
Until now, Qin Huai still remembers.
"Don't you like to eat?" Still don't like him to give.
Xiao Ayu said: "In the past, the sugar gourd was sweet on the outside and sour on the inside, and I want to eat it that is sweet on the inside and outside. ”
Hearing Xiao Ayu's explanation, Qin Huai's face finally got much better, just a greedy little girl.
"Go to my house and do it." Qin Huai said to Chijia on the side, "You go and invite the fourth aunt over." ”
When the children of the Lao Wang family heard that they were going to make sugar gourds from wild fruits, they were all very excited, they had never eaten sugar gourds before!
It doesn't matter if it's good or not, this thing is made of sugar anyway, and even if it's not delicious, the sugar can't be wasted.
Liu has never made sugar gourds, and Xiao Ayu, with the help of dumplings, described the taste of sugar gourds to Liu.
"Okay, then I'll try it first." Liu probably thought about it in his heart and began to operate.
She was still a little apprehensive in her heart, sugar, but it was a very precious thing, and if it was wasted, it would be really guilty.
"Fourth aunt, don't worry about doing it boldly, the sugar tube is enough."
He has a big jar of sugar at home, which was originally prepared for Xiao Ayu, thinking that Xiao Ayu will like to eat sweet things, and is planning to let Chijia learn some.
Liu thought that if he wanted to coat the outside of the fruit with a layer of sugar, the sugar was still red and hard, so he should use brown sugar to boil it, but Qin Huai only had white sugar here.
It is said that it is white sugar, but it is not very white, mixed with a little red and yellow, which is also because the sugar production technology in the town is relatively backward.
More delicate sugar, I'm afraid you have to go to Wanning City to buy it.
"I've seen craftsmen melt the sugar water, then wrap the fruit in sugar water, and after it cools, it becomes a sugar gourd." Seeing that the Liu family had not dared to start, Qin Huai said beside him.
Liu was suspicious, and tried it once according to what Qin Huai said, and the first time the sugar was boiled for too long, causing the sugar to be burnt, and after wrapping it, the fruit was also scalded.
But the children still ate with relish.
"Fourth aunt, your sugar gourd is so delicious!"
"Yes, yes, this is the best sugar gourd I've ever tasted!"
"Wow, that's great, we can go to the stall, there must be a lot of people buying it!"
A few boys were very supportive, even if one person only got one, they cherished it very much.
Xiao Ayu naturally got it, she took a bite, only to feel that her mouth was full of sweetness, and when she bit it, the fruit turned into juice and melted into her mouth.
"Whew, it's hot!" Xiao Ayu curled her tongue, feeling a little bitter on the tip of her tongue, she didn't like to suffer hardship, but she still raised a smile and said, "A-Niang's cooking is delicious!" ”
Liu knew that these children were patting themselves on the back, and they did it for the first time, but they didn't do it well, but they were finally formed, which also gave Liu a lot of confidence.
The second time I made it, I didn't have enough time to boil, and the syrup and particles were still there, and after it dried a little, the taste was a little rustling.
The children said that it didn't taste as good as the first time, but it was still delicious.
"You little elves, you just want to eat a few more." Doing it twice in a row was not successful, and Liu was still a little distressed, "Xiaohuai, don't do it, I haven't done it, it's too bad." ”
"It's okay, Fourth Aunt, you can do it with confidence, you see that Ayu also likes to eat." Qin Huai said a series of words in one breath, speaking quickly, and his tone naturally took on a bit of childishness.
He pursed his lips again and didn't continue.
Afraid of talking too much, the fourth aunt treated him like a child.
He doesn't like to be a child.
Qin Huai usually speaks concisely and to the point, because he knows that adults often talk like this, talking too much, like a chattering doll.
Liu didn't think about it that much at all, and when he was encouraged, he felt that it was not good for him to give up halfway, so he continued to do it.
I did it four or five times in a row, and finally made a crystal clear sugar gourd.
The fruit inside is red, and the outside is coated with a layer of semi-red syrup, and when it cools slightly, the syrup on the outside becomes a transparent icing.
Because it is just one to do, the fruits are put on a plate and not skewered.
In the past, the children who failed could eat it without any psychological burden, but now they don't dare to eat it when they see such a complete and extraordinarily beautiful sugar gourd.
"Why don't you eat it?" Chijia was the first to ask.
Wang Wulang was embarrassed and touched his stomach: "I have eaten too much, I am a little full, let's keep these first." ”
Wang Liulang was also a little embarrassed, although the fruit was theirs, but the fruit was not valuable, sugar was valuable, and they had eaten too much.
"Just keep these, give them all to Qin Huai to eat, let's give you another basket of fruits, we have eaten too much today."
Of course, Xiao Ayu didn't eat enough, and only ate four or five in total, but she covered her cheeks and said, "It's too sweet, it's too sweet, Ayu's tongue doesn't feel it!" ”
The look of playing treasure made everyone laugh.
Qin Huai said: "Do you want to make sugar gourds to sell?" Can I participate? You produce the fruit, the fourth aunt produces the technology, I will be responsible for the sugar, and then let the person sell it, and then we will divide it, what do you think? ”
A few children were a little dumbfounded, they didn't know what to divide and not to share, which sounds a bit complicated.
Liu was also a little hesitant: "Can this thing really be sold?" ”
Although they tried many times today, they made it in half a day, and the production technology of other people's sugar gourds can be passed down.
Is it really so easy for them to copy?
