Chapter 137: You Two Are You Making Sugar?

In the small courtyard.

The cameras around have already been set up.

There are several cauldrons in the middle of the courtyard, and in the corner there is a simple sugar cart designed by Ye Luo himself.

Director Zhao, they also came back with the collected raw materials.

There are four kinds of sugar to be boiled in Yeluo, brown sugar, white sugar, rock sugar and starch sugar, and there are not many materials used in these four kinds of sugar.

Director Zhao and the others hired a car to pull them all back.

A lot of sugar cane, beets, some sweet potatoes, corn.

In fact, the ancient sugar production process is similar to the modern sugar production process, and the raw materials are basically these things from ancient times to the present.

As the so-called sweet in the south and sweet in the north, because in ancient times, due to the restrictions of transportation and climate, the raw materials for making sugar in the south were basically sugarcane, while in the north it was sugar beets.

Of course, there are different types of sugarcane here. In ancient times, there were two kinds of sugarcane, such as the kind of sugarcane we usually eat called "fruit cane", which was not used as a raw material for sugar production. It is called "sugar cane" that is specially used to make sugar. Compared with the two, the fruit cane stalks are thick and soft, contain less plant fiber, and are not easy to scratch the mouth. Sugar cane is much thinner, similar in shape to a reed, with a firm and sharp skin, but a high sugar content, so it is mostly used to make sugar.

With the development of agricultural technology, modern society also has feed sugarcane, energy sugarcane and fiber sugarcane.

As for the sugar beets grown in the north, there are also many varieties. Depending on the type, it can be used not only to make sugar, but also to make medicine, and even to make pigments, sake brewing, etc., and its shape is similar to that of large carrots.

At this point, the camera is turned on.

Some young men in the program team are helping to move raw materials to the yard.

Ye Luo lit a fire here, and Director Zhao came over and asked, "Teacher Ye, is there anything else to do?" ”

"Yes, you cut the sugar cane into small pieces and go over there to juice it." Ye Luo said.

"How much do you cut?" Director Zhao asked.

Ye Luo glanced at the fact that there were more than a dozen sugar canes over there, and said deliberately: "Just in moderation." ”

When Director Zhao heard this, he almost didn't blow up!

God's special amount is enough!

Director Zhao gritted his teeth and said, "No! You've got to say the number! ”

The camera brother is also a veteran, and the camera is hard to scold Director Zhao's face, and his expression change from reluctance to reluctance to now gritting his teeth has not fallen at all.

Ye Luo laughed, stopped teasing him, and said, "You and Director Deng can just squeeze five roots." "Mr. Zhao, the sugarcane they bought back is of good quality, ten is probably enough.

"Five roots per person, right? Yes! ”

Director Zhao feels that this is okay!

Not too much!

Greeted Director Deng, and one person pulled a few sugarcanes and went to peel them at the root of the wall.

In fact, whether it is a modern method or a classical technique, there is a way to peel without peeling.

For example, Song Yingxing recorded in "Tiangong Kaiwu" that the kind of sugar cart used to squeeze sugarcane juice in Guangdong and Fujian has two large solid wooden rollers on the top and bottom, and the whole sugarcane is put between these two rollers, and the juice squeezed out flows directly into the wooden barrel below. This is actually the prototype of the juicer of the modern sugarcane farm, but the equipment at that time was relatively simple and the juice extraction efficiency was relatively low. Moreover, the recovery of this sugar cart is slightly more difficult, and Ye Luo did not take such a method.

This sugar cart made by Ye Luo is relatively simple. A round wooden barrel half a meter square is fixed on a low chair, about 30 centimeters above the ground, and there are four small holes around the lower side of the barrel, and a hollow bamboo pipe is inserted into the small holes to guide the flow.

To use it, you only need to put the cut sugar cane pieces into a wooden barrel and hammer it back and forth with a round wooden pestle.

This kind of sugar cart is similar to a stone sugar cart, but the structure is much simpler than that of a stone sugar cart.

Although the speed is relatively slow, the juicing effect is very good, and the juice in the sugar cane can be squeezed dry. Moreover, the sugarcane juice extracted in this way is also relatively clean.

Of course, it's just a bit of a hassle.

Soon, Director Zhao and Director Deng each took a wooden pestle and began to pound it.

Here, after Ye Luo finished lighting the fire, he was not idle.

Called Tang Rou and began to teach her how to handle malt and sweet potatoes.

"The malt should be chopped, and as much as it can be chopped."

Malt, sweet potato, and glutinous rice are all used to make caramel, which is now also called maltose.

In order to facilitate the shooting, the board was also moved to the yard.

Ye Luo and Tang Rou stood side by side in front of the board, "Sweet potatoes should be washed and cut into slices. ”

"Is that all?" Tang Rou asked.

"Cut it first." Leaf Fall.

Tang Rou nodded, bent down to pick up a large handful of newly sprouted malt, and spread it on the board.

Picking up the kitchen knife, I cut it very skillfully with almost no hesitation.

"Bang Bang ~"

Tang Rou looked at the board intently, just looking at her using a kitchen knife, she was definitely not a novice!

Especially after cutting the malt, when cutting the sweet potato chips, the knife worker was a little surprised to see the leaves falling.

Professional!

This Tang Tianhou definitely cooks no less!

Otherwise, there would not be such a sharp knife work!

Thinking that Tang Rou, a great diva, would still cook?

Everyone thought it was a little incredible.

Not to mention Tang Rou's diva, even ordinary girls don't know how to cook, right?

But the facts are right in front of you, people not only know, but they also seem to be very skilled!

Pure magical realism!

After a while, Tang Tianhou finished processing these raw materials according to Ye Luo's requirements.

The malt is finely chopped and the sweet potato is sliced.

"Steam the sweet potatoes, and by the way, steam the glutinous rice."

The process of making caramel is relatively simple, and the steps have not changed much since ancient times.

Steamed sweet potatoes, glutinous rice, and chopped malt are put together and stirred well, then set aside to ferment for four or five hours, then the fermented rice soup is drained out, and the rice soup is boiled into a paste until it can be drawn.

The process is not complicated, but it requires patience.

A total of four cauldrons were erected in the courtyard.

In the middle of the courtyard, there are three pots that are connected together, which are used to make cane sugar. Another pot is on the edge of the yard, and the bottom of the pot is already on fire, which can be used to steam red pigment and glutinous rice.

Ye Luo and Tang Rou put on the steamer together, and the preparation of the caramel was almost there.

Tang Rou clapped her hands and asked, "Are we just waiting like this now?" ”

Ye Luo said: "It's just caramel candy." As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at Director Zhao and the others who were still juicing over there, estimating that they would have to wait a while, so he said to Tang Rou: "Let's deal with the beetroot first." ”

Mr. Zhao, the beetroot they bought back is quite large, one has to have nearly two catties, and beetroots like this only need three to make one catty of sugar.

Ye Luo picked three beetroots, washed them, put them on the cutting board, and said to Tang Rou: "Just cut them into strips." ”

"Hmm."

Tang Rou nodded, and did as Ye Luo said.

Ye Luo watched from the sidelines, and I have to say that the Tang Datian Jedi is a model of the upper hall and lower the kitchen. On the stage, there are music superstars sought after by thousands of people, and there are still beautiful chefs in the kitchen who can be steamed and cooked. It's Chinese New Year's Eve today, but it doesn't matter. If anyone can marry Tang Tianhou home, it will really be to save the galaxy in his last life!

Thirty, only five years older than me!

The ones that people maintain are similar to the little girls of twenty-five or six!

It's not a big problem, no, it's not a problem at all!

Female junior, hugging gold bricks. The fifth female college is better than the queen mother!

Ye Luo looked at Tang Rou and began to think of some messy things in his mind.

"Teacher Ye, hair ......" Tang Rou suddenly stopped what she was doing, looked up at Ye Luo and said.

"Huh?" Ye Luo was stunned, hair? What hair? Ye Luo didn't react.

Tang Rou gestured with her eyes, the hair on her forehead was a little blocking her eyes just now, and her eyelashes were fighting with her bangs. Tang Tianhou's hands are full of beetroot juice, which is inconvenient.

Ye Luo understood, and helped her with his hand.

Seeing Tang Rou with her hair scattered, Ye Luo took the opportunity to say, "Do you have a rubber band?" I'll tie it up for you? ”

Tang Rou glanced at him, but didn't refuse, "Well, it's okay." The rubber band is in my pocket. As she spoke, Tang Rou looked at her right trouser pocket.

This?

Shall I take it myself?

If you want to do this, you're welcome!

Ye Luo didn't twist it, everyone Tang Tianhou said that he was still afraid of a fart?

walked to Tang Rou's side, reached into her trouser pocket, touched it, and felt the rubber band.

A black velvet leather band, very simple, and no other decorations.

It can be seen that Zhao Xiaotao, the assistant, is almost the same as the furnishings.

Tang Rou even has to bring her own rubber bands!

However, the pockets of jeans are relatively thin!

Although Ye Luo didn't touch it, the fabric in this trouser pocket is indeed relatively thin!

And it's a good location.

Tang Rou glanced at him expressionlessly, Ye Luo coughed lightly and didn't speak.

came to Tang Rou's back, pulled up her hair, and simply tied it together.

"Don't you know how to tie a ponytail?" Tang Rou asked in a low voice.

"No, it won't."

"Haven't prick your girlfriend before?"

"Former girlfriend? It's been so long that I've forgotten about both men and women. ”

"Huh." Tang Roupi didn't smile and ignored him.

The two of them were muttering while cutting vegetables.

Zhao Xiaotao was on the side, holding the mobile phone and slapping at the two of them, and his aunt smiled on his face.

……

Ye Luo and Tang Tianhou chatted hotly, but on the other side, Director Zhao and Director Deng, who were juicing, were going to be tired like dogs.

It's so tiring!

They both felt that their arms were no longer their own.

"Teacher Ye is really excessive! Our brothers are tired and tired here, and he is eye-to-eyeing with Tang Tianhou over there? You see, it's all go? Where is this hand going? Still tie your hair? It's a video! Is this something that can be broadcast? I'm really convinced! ”

Director Zhao's envious eyes were green, and he complained unceremoniously about Ye Luo, "Is that a sugar making Mr. Ye?" I'm too embarrassed to break him! Bah! Insulting Sven! ”

Director Deng also pouted enviously, "Where are they making sugar, I think it's going to be sugar!" The name of Mr. Ye's "Sweet as Food" is so good! ”

"But what do you have to say, I feel that Tang Tianhou and Teacher Ye are still quite compatible. Don't look at Mr. Ye's low position in the entertainment industry, but he is a contemporary writer! The status is not worse than Tang Rou, right? ”

"Look at how you compare, now this world, hehe." Director Deng shook his head and didn't continue to say anything on this topic, but said: "However, Tang Tianhou's temperament is too cold, and ordinary people can't stand it." I think most of Teacher Ye can't do it, it's been ten years since Tang Tianhou debuted, and she has never been in love, so Teacher Ye can take her? As he spoke, he shook his head, "I'm struggling." ”

But Director Zhao didn't see it that way, "Queen Tang must also be interested in Teacher Ye, otherwise she could let Teacher Ye tie her hair?" Did you touch your ass just now? ”

"Huh? Did you touch it? Why didn't I see it? Director Deng widened his eyes and raised his eyebrows.

"Nonsense! I can see it clearly! Teacher Ye secretly stretched out his hand! I didn't expect it, my brother Ye looked at a talent, and he was so ......"

"Pull it down! People are digging pockets, right? What kind of yellow eyes are you? ”

"Pockets? Really? It's not like that! ”

These two old men, if they gossip, it will be quite terrifying.

Even the eldest brother who was in charge of filming them couldn't listen anymore, "Mr. Zhao, Director Deng, my machine is on!" ”

"Then you're not going to turn it off? Come here and pound the party! ”

Director Deng couldn't handle Ye Luo, but the camera crew under his command still held the handle. He's going to be tired, and he really doesn't want to move at all. Damn, in the next episode, I must find a few big injustices to replace myself.

Director Zhao also said: "It's okay, you delete this paragraph first, and delete it now." He knew that if this paragraph was passed out, he and Director Deng would probably be gone. It's okay to arrange Ye Luo behind the scenes, but Tang Tianhou's background is really untouchable.

By the time the sugarcane juice was almost done, the glutinous rice and sweet potatoes had already been steamed and cooled.

Just stir together the mashed sweet potatoes with the malt and glutinous rice.

However, Tang Tianhou is a girl after all, and she can't do this kind of work alone.

Seeing this, Ye Luo also got started, and the two of them stirred together.

Seriously, the cameraman doesn't even know how to shoot it.

I know that you are making sugar, but I don't know that I think you are here to show your affection!

What is this?

Are Mr. Ye and Tang Tianhou already together?

Is this hair tied and hand-stirred?

Can this thing be recorded?

The camera crew wondered if they were on the wrong set today!

Moreover, there are also Tang Rou's fans here, and their eyes have changed a little when they look at Ye Luo.

These two people have interacted on Weibo before, and today they came out like this, this won't really be the case, right?

But Ye Luo and Tang Rou didn't forget what today's theme was, and after these preparations were done, Ye Luo began to formally teach Tang Rou how to boil syrup.

Boiling syrup is basically manual work, and Ye Luo also started it himself.

Basically, Tang Rou was playing on the side, and Ye Luo told Tang Rou while operating.

There are fewer steps to boil brown sugar with sugarcane juice, just boil the sugarcane juice into a paste and then skim off the impurities.

As for white sugar, it is necessary to add several processes on top of brown sugar, the most important of which is to pour sugar with yellow mud water. The so-called yellow muddy water is literally, turbid muddy water, which is used to adsorb the pigments in brown sugar, and can also play a certain role in neutralizing the acidity in brown sugar, which is somewhat similar to the role of lime.

Of course, the specific tools and steps used are also shown one by one. Ye Luo's method of pouring sugar with yellow mud water this time is the process of making white sugar by condensing the icing sugar in a clay pot recorded in "Tiangong Kaiwu".

As for caramel and rock sugar, we have to wait a little longer to make them.

Speaking of which, Tang Tianhou really wanted to taste the taste of these sugars made by herself. Especially brown sugar, which is a good thing for women.
