Chapter 80: Sugar Cane

After tinkering with the pine nuts, Di Mu remembered the 'sugar cane' that had been piled up after picking it back, and she had asked the orcs of the brown bear tribe, but no one knew what the name of this species was.

Although this 'sugar cane' is quite different from the sugar cane on the Blue Star, and even the growth method is very different, Di Mu still decided to call it sugar cane.

The patriarch of the Brown Bear Tribe, Vanke, is a simple orc, and when Di Mu asks him about sugar cane, he says it's a weed, and no one wants it.

Although they can eat, they will occasionally break a stick. There are many beehives in their brown bear tribe, and when they are used to drinking honey and then eating sugar cane, they will naturally feel that it is not so sweet.

But the taste of this sugarcane is really wonderful, it looks like a snow lotus when you bite into it, but in the end, it is like a mouthful of slag like a sugarcane on the blue star.

Since the orcs of the brown bear tribe usually don't care, the sugar cane in the creek grows wildly, and when they go to harvest it, there is a large one.

Di Mu silently thought about how to use sugarcane in his heart, and after thinking about it, he finally decided to make sugarcane candy and try it.

Cane sugar is a general term that includes brown sugar, white sugar, rock sugar and many others. Cane sugar is not necessarily brown sugar, whereas brown sugar must be cane sugar.

First of all, the sugarcane is washed and peeled, and the skin of these sugarcanes is red, which is quite beautiful.

The washed cane is placed in a wooden juicer. It is said to be a juice press because this machine is very simple, it is to press the juice out of the wooden board with brute force.

It may be a difference in variety, but the juice yield of sugarcane here is much higher than that of serious sugarcane on the blue star. Originally, the price of handmade sugarcane sugar sold on Blue Star was generally high, on the one hand, it was the manual fee, on the other hand, the juice yield of sugarcane was too low, and the final boiling evaporation part of the raw material cost was high.

Put the collected juice into a stone pot and boil and stir constantly, until it turns caramel color and bubbles, then pour it into the mold and let it cool. The mold is also wooden, and Di Mu originally asked Shi Hao to make it into the shape of a small square, but the ingenious Shi Hao made a lot of small animals in a while.

Di Mu didn't use all the sugar cane to make brown sugar, and the sugar cane was quite well preserved.

She had seen bundles of sugar cane in people's cellars before, surrounded by sugar cane leaves and mud. The tribe now lives in a cave with only one storage room and no cellar.

Di Mu called a few orcs to beat all the remaining sugar canes into bundles with vines, and there were about seven or eight in each bundle.

The bundled sugar cane was taken out and found in a moist place to be buried.

Dig a large rectangular pit for them, pile it in, and sprinkle a layer of wet soil around and on top.

After these are done, the brown sugar is almost cooled and ready to be demolded, and the shape of the animal has attracted the interest of many orcs.

I heard Di Mu say that this is brown sugar, which is particularly delicious to drink in water, and it can also drive away cold and replenish blood. When they went to the Tao, they consciously and slowly went to boil water.

Di Mu didn't feel distressed, and after a large pot of water was boiled, he directly threw a lot of brown sugar into it. Brown sugar contains a lot of trace elements and vitamins, and its nutritional content is much higher than that of white sugar.

The brown sugar quickly melted as soon as it touched the water, and a pot of water instantly turned reddish-brown.

The orc cubs smelled the sweet and greasy taste in the air and struggled hand and foot in the arms of the old orc, seeing this, the old orcs simply hugged the little orcs and also surrounded them.

The orcs are getting more and more around, but Di Mu originally wanted everyone to drink a little hot water to warm up. The wooden spoon was handed to the captain of the cooking team, and she arranged for each orc to serve a bowl.

The orcs who got it would find a corner to sit or squat, holding a bowl and taking small sips while eating and drinking. The moment the brown sugar water was drunk, it quickly captured their hearts.

She had long discovered that the Sky Wolf Tribe, both men and women, young and old, liked sweets. It's not that the taste is sweet, but some people don't eat any sugar at all, but the orcs of the Sirius tribe have shown interest in sweetness.
