Chapter 38: Tertiary Fermentation and the Redstone Oven
"Triple fermentation? And then use the oven?What is the oven?Combination redstone? That's too whimsical, isn't it?"
There are more whimsical ideas, but I don't have time to try them. Erica couldn't help but think to herself.
"Why Erica, do you have such thoughts?" asked Tamara.
Vera also persuaded: "It's just that you need a thousand servings, although white bread is not a strong dish, but as long as it is done, I believe that a thousand servings are fine, and we don't need to take this risk at all." ”
"It's hard to say whether white bread will sell a thousand copies. After all, white bread is just ordinary bread, and if you want to make it well, you need more exquisite skills, otherwise others will not buy it at all. And I understood my mother's true intention to leave only the white bread recipe. ”
"What is the real intention, teacher, what is she doing to keep only such a simple bread?" asked Vera curiously.
"Because what she expects is that we will be able to develop different breads based on this simplest of methods. Tell us all the basics, and then we can unleash our creativity and make something completely different. That's what Mom intended. Hopefully, we don't just learn to make a kind of bread, but make our own. In this way, you can really learn how to make bread. "By white bread, we actually mean bread that looks like white paper. What later learners want to learn is not this blank paper, but can draw their own colors on the blank paper.
"And what do you want to do with this triple fermentation? The bread only needs to be fermented twice!" asked Tamara, who asked.
Erica explains: "The second fermentation is almost enough, but the bread I am going to make this time would be even better if it could be fermented three times. ”
"No, the risk of triple fermentation is too great. You see, even the notes just record the secondary fermentation, which means that the tertiary fermentation is completely undesirable. Vera said, pointing to the note on it.
Indeed, this notebook first records the bread made by the primary fermentation method, and then describes the procedure for making the bread by the secondary fermentation method.
However, the note says that the more it is fermented, the better the flavor of the bread becomes. Isn't that telling us that we need to do three ferments!" Erica also pointed to the note, and expressed her opinion.
"No, every fermentation not only requires more time and energy, but also increases the risk. The second fermentation already requires considerable experience and control, and if it is a third fermentation, there is only one possibility, and that is an explosion!"
Even in Erica's previous life, in the Earth Realm of the Earth, the three fermentations were relatively rare, not to mention that this was the Otherworldly Realm, because of the threat of explosions, by the time of the three fermentations, the risk was already high and terrifying.
However, the increase in the number of fermentations, in addition to the change in flavor, will also reduce the likelihood of explosion later, and the dough will be easier to handle when making bread.
The first time Erica touches bread, there is an explosion. Not only because Erica is a novice, but also because it was the dough that Sora had fermented, and at that time, Sora was using the one-time fermentation method, and this piece of dough was still not fully fermented. That's why it explodes immediately after a little stimulation. In fact, Erica is still black for nothing.
"And what's going on with this redstone oven?" asked Vera, pointing to the crooked diagram that Erica had drawn during her explanation.
Seeing that picture, Tamara resisted the urge to laugh. It's just a very simple chest with redstone on display, but it's twisted by Erica into an abstract style.
Erica explained again, "Isn't bread divided into redstone pies and fireplace pies? I found that the advantage of a fireplace pie is that it has a comprehensive firepower, and the advantage of a redstone pie is that it has stable firepower. So I decided to piece together redstone into a fireplace-like device. ”
"Adding redstone to the fireplace allows the temperature to be kept extremely stable and comprehensive. Is this a magic array? Using the principle of the magic array, it really works!" Vera calculated, and suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
"That, it's just a simple arrangement and combination, it's not a magic array. Erica whispered, a little shame in her voice.
She also knew that this picture showed her handicap's skills and curious style. The oven was filled with redstone, but it looked like a magic circle, and it was the kind that could summon an alien god with tentacles at any moment.
However, I didn't expect to be able to join the magic array, and Erica didn't expect that wizards would also know these things of magicians. Could it be that high-level wizards use magic arrays to make food?
Erica couldn't help but imagine herself standing high in the air, holding a bow and arrow, wearing a pink dress, and then shouted loudly: "Magical girl Erica, my wish is to let everyone in the world be able to eat delicious bread!"
Then shoot an arrow into the sky yourself.
With a bang, a huge magic circle was drawn on the sky overhead.
Countless arrows were shot across the continent, and then turned into all sorts of delicious breads. All the people who received the bread smiled with joy and shouted Erica's name.
It seems, so, is it also very good?
Erica shook her head, banishing the delusions in her head, this was not the time for cranky thoughts. However, if you have the opportunity in the future, it would be good to give it a try!, Erica thought to herself.
"In that case, I'm going to try to find the best combination of these redstones. Vera picked up the blueprints and began to go to the kitchen to try out how to use a magic circle combination with redstone to achieve the best results, and make a redstone oven.
"I'll see if I can help too?" Erika stood up and was about to run towards the kitchen.
"Wait a minute!" Tamara called out to Erica.
Running to the door, Erica held her hand to the edge of the door and turned back and asked, "Is there anything wrong?"
Tamara lowered her head, but she didn't look happy to start a new practice, but rather a depressed mood.
"Isn't it good to just make white bread? Why do you have to work so hard? You before you didn't think of a way, and you who just came up with a new way, it's as if they were not the same person. This method is very dangerous, whether it is to make bread or to sell bread. Do you know what this town calls boom boom because there are explosions every day. How can you be sure that what you're making is a delicious bread? Maybe it's just a lump of charred charcoal. ”
"Because I want to win!"
"Then you don't have to ......"
"Because I still want to win beautifully! I promised others that I would become a Sky Wizard, but I just passed the competition. What I want is complete victory!" said Erica, gripping the edge of the door.
Tamara stood up, sighed, and said, "Oh, I can't help it!" and as she spoke, she casually picked up the coat by the door and put it on, passed through Erica, and walked out of the door.
Erica couldn't help but ask, "What are you going to do?"
Under the night sky, the voice of Tamara could be heard.
"If you want to win beautifully, then a thousand servings are far from enough!" Tamara's back disappeared into the street under the night sky.
