Second Sister Nongmen has space

Chapter 57 The first taste of acorn jelly
At this time, the benefits of having space are fully reflected.

Wherever the line of sight is locked, you can get in as many as possible, which is thousands of times more efficient than ordinary people.

When Song Liyun came out, he didn't just collect acorns, he collected whatever was available, even dead trees and rotten grass. Wherever he passed was like a tornado blowing by, the ground was instantly slick, Xiao An and Hei Jin were stunned.

Several times, if Hei Jin didn't jump fast, she would almost be taken into the space by her.

Fortunately, the space can only hold things that cannot struggle and move, so Hei Jin survived.

The mountain where Song Liyun was located was swept away in half a day.

After her space was filled with messy branches and hazelnuts, she finally stopped to rest.

Because he was going up the mountain, Song Liyun prepared steamed buns in advance and boiled acorns in a pot.

Acorns are known as "the millet on the tree", and they are edible, but they contain tannins and have a bitter and unpalatable taste. If it is not for the extreme lack of food, no one is willing to taste them.

But acorns are also a good thing, rich in nutrition, and good for the stomach, but they have to be finely processed before they can be eaten.

Acorns that have been boiled in water destroy the tannins and greatly reduce the bitterness.

But just boiling once is not enough. You need to boil the water with acorns and then pour it out, then add water and boil again, and repeat it many times until the filtered water no longer turns brown, and the bitterness inside is gone. remove.

There was a time in the last days when mutated acorns that grew into fists were life-saving food for human beings.

Everyone knows how to deal with the tannins in acorns, and a series of acorn products have been developed, such as acorn vermicelli, acorn biscuits, etc.

Xiao An used to eat raw acorns and burnt acorns in the mountains with Song Zhenping, but now he eats boiled acorns, and it feels sweet with a slight fragrance.

With such a delicacy, Hei Jin also lost its raw acorns, and ran over to compete with Song Liyun and the others to eat.

It has not eaten the cooked food it likes for five years, and it tastes stronger than Xiaoan. Often the water is boiled, and it eagerly stretches out its claws to fish it.

Still grinning to protect the food, Song Liyun pushed him to the ground and beat him up.

There are endless acorns on the mountain, and Hei Jin is just a habit, and he behaves honestly after being beaten.

Because it was the first time going up the mountain, Song Liyun didn't stay for too long.

After lunch, they put Xiaoan on their backs again, and the two of them returned from the river beach the same way.

Back at Baolin Residence, Song Liyun had something to do.

First dump the acorns in the space into the cellar, stack the firewood to the backyard, and cook a big pot.

He also brought a stone jar in the yard, poured half of it into the jar and soaked the other acorns in a large jar.

Boiling acorns needs to change the water frequently, and soaking acorns also needs to change the water every day, until the water color is clear and there is no other color.

This process generally takes half a month, and the tannins in it are gone, and the grinding powder will no longer have a bitter taste.

In comparison, although cooking acorns takes a short time, it consumes a lot of firewood, which is unaffordable for most people. Soaking is the most economical and economical, but there is no rush.

After the acorns are cooked, they are boiled in stone-milled slurry, and then cooled thoroughly.

When Song Zhenping came back at night, he could already eat acorn jelly.

The acorn jelly mixed with oil, salt, shallot, ginger, and garlic has no astringency at all, but an indescribable crispness.

The trace of bitterness left in it adds to the rich taste of sweet, sour and spicy.

Song Zhenping sighed while eating: "I only ate steamed bread with acorn noodles before, why didn't I think of making it into such a frozen skin?"

When he was in Xiaoshi Village, every spring when there was a shortage of food, he and Xiaoan had to eat acorn noodle steamed buns for a long time, which tasted bitter and astringent, making it difficult to swallow.

Song Liyun smiled and said, "Today I only picked it up at the edge of the forest. I'll pick up some more tomorrow, and grind it into acorn noodles to eat every day."

She didn't say that this acorn jelly is delicious not only because it has no bitter taste, but also because there is oil and salt in it.

Song Zhenping used to know how to remove the bitterness, so he didn't need these seasonings.

Xiao An ate the bowl sullenly.

Acorn jelly is a coarse grain, rich in nutrition, and good for the stomach, Song Liyun didn't stick to him either.

This madness took everything, and his forehead was sweating, his belly was bulging, and his sallow face was flushed.

The three of them ate the acorn jelly and they were full. At the end, Song Zhenping said, "In a few days, I will go up the mountain with you."

He no longer objected to picking up acorns.

But Song Zhenping was working, so it was empty talk to say that he was going up the mountain.

Only Song Liyun took Heijin Xiaoan to the mountain several times.

She has almost picked up all the acorns on several hills, and high firewood piles have been piled up in the backyard of Baolinju.

Song Zhenping went out early and returned to work every day, and could only watch the changes at home.

Knowing that you can hold so many things back, you must have used a "treasure bag" that can be stored and stored.

Before dinner, Song Liyun replaced the tank soaked with acorns with fresh water.

It has been soaked for five days, and the water is still turbid black and yellow.

This is not good!
Thinking of the tons of acorns already piled up in the cellar, Song Liyun felt a little headache.

It’s like soaking every day, and when to soak, you still need a big pool.

And milling.

It is impossible for my three brothers and sisters to eat jelly every day, even if they make porridge or cakes, they can't finish it.

Song Liyun was thinking about how to deal with the acorns, and she was still grinding the acorns.

Just after filtering the ground acorn pulp and pouring it into the pot, Song Liyun was about to light a fire to boil the pulp, when she saw Xiao An hiccupping and ran into the stove, followed by Hei Jin who bared his teeth and claws.

Now Hei Jin is more and more returning to its essence as a pet, and it is a great pleasure to play with Xiao An.

Seeing that her sister was making delicious cold cakes again, Xiao An stopped playing and sat obediently in front of the stove to help light the fire.

Hei Jin followed and snuggled up beside Xiao An, handed him firewood, whimpered at the fire, and showed Xiao An its half tail, looking pitiful.

Xiao An also muttered words that only one person and one monkey could understand, and the two children got along harmoniously.

After the jelly was ready, put it in a small basin, and Song Liyun began to prepare the seasoning again.

Take out the onion, ginger and garlic from the space, and mince the last few cilantro.

Cut the shallots and coriander roots, found a pottery pot filled with soil, and put it in the corner of the kitchen.

Song Liyun poured the rice washing water again.

These onions have been stored in the space for almost a month, and they hope they can still grow.

Hey, the food in the space is getting less and less.

There is still more than half a year to go before the production in spring. Should I also build a greenhouse to grow some side dishes or something?

The quarter house occupies about an acre of land, and the backyard takes up more than half of it. After being burned, it was basically abandoned.

To rebuild, it is necessary to tear down the broken wall and dig up the waste soil to move away. This kind of project is not what Song Liyun is considering now.

However, the ground that has been dug up and mixed with charcoal ash has become fertile land, which can be cultivated for vegetable gardens.

This matter needs to be discussed with Song Zhenping. After all, when it comes to farming, I am only theoretical, and the actual operation is not as good as him.

In the afternoon, before the end of work, Song Zhenping came back early with a large bale of hay, and at the same time brought a big news.

Xue Xiaoqi wants to marry Xu Yan'er.
