Reborn 1980 The Thousand Gold Peasant Girl

Chapter 69 69. Ice Cream

Yimin Food Factory is in the suburbs of Luoyang City. Ning Qiu reversed three cars and walked for more than half an hour to find the place.

An old man with gray hair sat in the guard room and read the newspaper, "Who... are you looking for?"

If you directly talk to deputy factory director Ma, the uncle in front of you will probably think that she wants to get a relationship through the back door.

"I'm looking for a technician, Brother Xu."

"Technician? Surnamed Xu? Is it Xu Qiming?"

Ning Qiu didn't know the other party's name either, "Uh...his master is Uncle Chen."

"Oh...that's Xu Qiming, just wait."

The uncle picked up the phone and dialed, and soon Xu Qiming ran out of the factory, and was also surprised when he saw Ning Qiu.

"Ning Qiu!? Why are you here!?"

Ning Qiu greeted him with a smile, "Brother Xu, long time no see."

"Go! Go in and sit and chat."

Xu Qiming led him into a building and went up to the technician's office on the second floor.

"Master! Look who's coming!"

There were still three technicians sitting in the office. When Xu Qiming called out, everyone looked over.

"Hey! Isn't this girl Ning Qiu! Why are you here?"

"Uncle Chen, I'm here to see you."

Lao Chen dragged a chair, "Sit quickly, sit quickly."

Seeing Ning Qiu sitting down, he asked again, "Did you come to Luoyang to play with grandma?"

"No, I was admitted to Luoyang's No. [-] Middle School. School starts tomorrow, so I'll come over to see you during this time."

"You have been admitted to the high school in our city! Not bad!"

Old Chen nodded again and again. When he first met, he felt that this kid was unusual and would be promising in the future.

"Hey... go and get a few of the new products we developed last month, and give Qiu girl a taste."

"Okay." Xu Qiming responded, and ran out excitedly.

"New product?" Ning Qiu asked.

"Isn't it hot? We have made several flavors of ice cream, and they are selling well."

ice cream?In her impression, there were indeed several kinds of ice cream popsicles that were very popular in the early 90s.Classic salt soda popsicles, orange popsicles, green beans and red beans.Then there are ice creams with dairy products, such as white big ice cream, sesame ice cream with sesame seeds, and banana ice cream with banana flavor.

Seeing that she was thinking, Lao Chen asked her. "What's wrong?"

"Oh, nothing, I'd love to try it."

After waiting for a few minutes, Xu Qiming came in from the outside in a hurry, still holding three sticks in his hand.

Just as Ning Qiu thought, there were salt water popsicles, a large white ice cream and orange flavored popsicles.

"Try it quickly, these kinds are selling well."

Ning Qiu picked out a big ice cream and tasted it, it was indeed the taste from memory.

Old Chen couldn't wait to ask, "How is it?"

"Well, it's delicious!"

"Then try the other two, they are also very good!"

"No need, those two are sold at the gate of our school. I have already tasted them, and they are also very delicious."

"Really, hehe, it seems that what we have done this time is still very successful." Old Chen smiled proudly.

Ning Qiu's eyes flickered, "Uncle Chen, do you know the difference between ice cream and ice cream?"

Old Chen was taken aback, "Ice cream? I seem to have heard that the snow-white bricks in Haishi should belong to ice cream, right?"

"That kind of ice cream should belong to the hard type."

Old Chen became interested, "Hard ice cream?"

"Well, there are two types of ice cream, hard and soft. The hard one is like an ice cube, and the soft one is softer and smoother, so you don't need to bite it, and it's softer."

"You can do it!?"

"Well, ice cream requires two special ingredients."

Old Chen's eyes were shining, not only him, but all the technicians in the office looked at Ning Qiu as if a wolf had seen meat.

"Tell me quickly, what materials are needed?!"

"The most important thing is whipped cream. The other kind can be added or not, which can increase the thickness and sweetness of the milky fragrance, which is condensed milk."

"Condensed milk...is it boiled with sugar and milk to make it sticky?"

"Yes! That's it."

"Oh... we also use this in our milk biscuits, so what is whipped cream?"

"Made with milk, sugar, water, egg whites, lemon juice or vinegar."

"vinegar!?"

"Well, the vinegar is to increase the acidity in the egg whites, making it easier to beat, just add a little bit."

Just from what Ning Qiu said, the few technicians were also in the dark.

Old Chen rubbed his hands and asked expectantly. "Qiu girl, can you do it for us to see? It's really..."

"sure."

Several people were taken aback, they didn't expect Ning Qiu to agree so easily.

"Then let's go now!?"

"it is good."

Yiming Food Factory has a workshop dedicated to the development of new food, which is located on the ground floor of this building.The area is very large, roughly five to six hundred square meters.There are all kinds of utensils inside, and the air is mixed with the aroma of various foods.

Lao Chen brought Ning Qiu to the refrigerator, which was a commercial refrigerator with nine doors, very large.

Ning Qiu took the required materials from the refrigerator, and several technicians also spontaneously helped.

After inquiring about the functions of several machines, Ning Qiu started to make whipped cream.During the production process, she told several people the ratio and precautions.The few people present immediately recorded it as if they had found a treasure.

The production process of whipped cream is relatively complicated, and it took nearly half an hour to complete the production.It would have been much longer without the help of those mechanical devices.

Ning Qiu asked several people to taste the taste, and seeing that there was still plenty of time, he simply started to make ice cream.

There is ready-made condensed milk, so there is no need to prepare it separately. This time Ning Qiu made the most common milk ice cream.

"Ice cream can be made into dozens of flavors, vanilla, chocolate, mint, banana, strawberry...anything that can be used as an ingredient can be used. Refrigeration is also important. The temperature of soft ice cream is around -3 to -5°C, and hard ice cream Needs -18 to -23°C."

"Does the refrigeration temperature matter too?"

"Yeah, the difference between the two lies in the refrigeration temperature."

"Interesting, I've never heard of it." Old Chen said.

"Then I'll do both, and you can see the difference." It's just changing the temperature of the refrigerator, and it doesn't take much effort to do it.

By the time the two ice creams were taken out of the refrigerator, it was already [-]:[-] in the afternoon.It was already past get off work time, but none of these technicians left, and they all looked at the finished product out of the refrigerator with anticipation.

"Try them all."

Several people couldn't wait to pick up the small spoons and tasted each.As soon as the ice cream entered the mouth, the eyes of several people lit up.

"This... this smell is too strong!"

"Yeah, you don't need to add any ingredients, it's already very good to eat like this!"

“This soft serve ice cream is really good!”

"Well... I still prefer the hard type, which is much richer than ice cream."

Amidst the admiration, one person raised an objection.

"But it's such a hot day, I'm too tired to eat this."

Ning Qiu replied with a smile, "Ice cream can be sold all year round, not necessarily in summer."
