Chapter 45: Finger Cakes

Since Chen Du demonstrated to Du Jiajia twice, he has never touched the work of "kitchen" again.

And Du Jiajia seems to be very talented in cooking, and the rice crackers she has improved taste much better than Chen Dui, to put it bluntly, Chen Dui is just a poor man's child who is in charge early, and he doesn't really like to cook.

But in terms of experience, Du Jiajia, who has only been exposed to rice so far, still can't be compared with Chen Du.

"There's rice, there's flour, there's oil, there's salt, there's vegetables, there's jerky, let me think about what I can do......"

Chen Du was also a little difficult to choose in the face of the sudden abundance of ingredients.

"Can you cook noodles?"

As soon as this proposal came out, everyone felt like their saliva was going to water.

The simplest foods, such as rice and noodles, seem to be a fatal temptation now, and the feeling of seeing rice and noodles but not being able to eat them can really make people collapse.

"All kinds of cooking methods are not possible at the moment." Tang Jing shook her head in denial.

"Or is it because of the evaporation of water?"

"That's right, the amount of water is too small to withstand a few boils and then it will be boiled dry, and the food will not be cooked at all."

"So what to do?"

"It will only be possible until the water source problem is solved and a large enough pot is built."

Dong Junwei suddenly asked: "I have an idea, can you let Chen Du make a completely airtight container out of metal, then seal the water and rice grains inside, and then heat it, so that the water will not be lost, maybe you can cook rice." ”

Tang Jing nodded and said: "I have also thought about this method, to be honest, it is not completely impossible to achieve, but there are still many problems." ”

"What's the problem?"

"First of all, I don't doubt Chen Dui's ability, but the so-called 'completely airtight' container is actually very difficult to achieve, and it may not be visible at room temperature and pressure, but once heated, the liquid water inside is converted into water vapor, and the pressure increases dramatically, and when the time comes, a very small crack will lead to a failure and a waste of food.

"Of course, at this point, Chen Du tried a few more times, and it is estimated that he can succeed, but the biggest problem is that it is too dangerous to do so."

"You're worried about exploding?" Chen Du asked.

"Yes, the squad leader's heating ability, I don't think it's very skilled, in case the force is too strong, it's okay if the container is not sealed at that time, if it is really completely sealed, and the bearing capacity of the container is not up to standard, it is easy to cause an explosion. The food is tempting, but there's no need to take such a risk just yet. ”

"Yes, yes, yes......" everyone echoed in unison.

"However, when the squad leader is more proficient, he can try to heat the container to a certain extent, and then let it cool naturally, if it is a few times, it will probably be able to cook rice."

"Then I'll use more metal to practice my hands lately."

Among the materials that Dong Junwei used to practice now, the most were stones, and during the time when Chen Du and the three of them left, she added more than 20 grenades to the team's arsenal.

This undoubtedly greatly increased the combat effectiveness of the team.

"There's no hurry, now that there is oil and salt, even if it's still rice crackers, the taste will be much better."

Ultimately.

Chen Du still decided to make cakes.

However, the main ingredient used was changed to flour.

The taste of the dough cake is naturally much better than that of rice cake, especially after the various ingredients and seasonings.

Chen Duan skillfully took the flour, added water, and adjusted it into a semi-thin state, and then asked Dong Junwei to heat the iron plate.

Today's cooking environment is much better than it was at the beginning.

Not only has the area of the iron plate been increased, but the entire stove has also been expanded, which is really a bit of a kitchen.

Chen Du made two stainless steel jars, one for salt and one for oil. This prevents frequent opening of the packet and accelerates spoilage.

The so-called oil is not oil in the real sense, and it is definitely not good to use it for stir-frying and frying, but adding a little to prevent it from sticking to the pan when spreading the dough cake can still be done, and for people now, a little sauce with oil is already a supreme delicacy.

Chen Dui hung his hand above the iron plate.

After feeling the temperature enough.

Immediately apply a layer of oil, then use a homemade stainless steel iron spoon, scoop a spoonful of batter, and pour it on top of the iron plate.

The sound of sizzling and the aroma of frying suddenly diffused.

Everyone gathered around Chen Dui, drooling to watch him operate.

Spread the batter out and spread out into a pancake.

Afterwards, Chen Duan crushed the egg and sprinkled it evenly on the cake.

Turn over and spread the sauce.

The celery leaves are torn to the right size and spread on top of the dough.

There are dehydrated green onions in the vegetable bag, but considering that there are already celery, there is no additional addition, after all, these fresh celery leaves cannot be stored for too long and must be eaten quickly, while dehydrated vegetables can be stored for a long time, these things can be regarded as strategic materials after a few days, who knows when the next batch of vegetable food will appear.

The beef cubes are torn into tiny strips and placed horizontally on top of all the ingredients.

Chen Du skillfully rolled up the pancakes, turned the angle, and then used the knife and spatula in his hand to cut the burrito from the middle, took a plate casually, and put it on it.

"Who's coming first?"

Chen Du held the plate and looked at the crowd.

Everyone swallowed at the same time.

"Da Lei eat first, I see your eyes are about to burst into flames."

"Fart, you're just as good."

“……”

Chen Du handed the plate to Wei Dalei.

"Then you're welcome."

Old Wei Le reached out and picked up half of it, and gave the remaining half to Zhao Xiaoyan.

There was no paper or bag to pad their hands, and both of them kept blowing hot air, which felt a lot like office workers hurrying to buy a pancake on the side of the road in the morning.

"Woo ......"

Since Wei Dalei took the first bite, his mouth couldn't stop, just humming there, probably wanting to say that it was delicious, but he was reluctant to stop.

Even Zhao Xiaoyan felt a little gobbling up.

At the same time, Chen Du has already started to work on the second one.

Greasing, pouring batter, turning over, spreading sauce, spreading vegetables......

The movements are becoming more and more proficient.

"Chen Du, have you ever sold pancakes in your own cart?" Tang Jing said with a smile.

"I have sold pancakes, but I don't have my own cart, I help people to watch the stall for a while, and each cake earns five cents, and if the business is good in the morning, before going to school, I can also have a small income of more than a dozen yuan." Chen Du replied with a smile.

Everyone was stunned.

I thought it was funny and laughed.

But laughing and laughing can never smile again.

He Ying didn't know Chen Dui's origin, and was a little puzzled, but she didn't ask after all.

……

"What kind of bread is this?"

"Pancake fruit?"

"No, it's a little thicker than that, and there's no fritters and crunch."

"You're so exquisite."

"It's more like a finger cake."

“……”

"Just grab a cake, it's just that there are not many materials, and it's a little shabby."

As he spoke, he handed out the second copy to everyone.

"Where is it simple, it is obviously a noble luxury invincible luxury version of the finger cake!"

Sun Yuan took the lead in touting.

But his sycophant this time was unanimously recognized by everyone.
