Traveling through the world of beasts: I light up my survival skills in the wild

Chapter 102 The Thoroughly Ripe Green Soap Fruit
The weather is getting hotter.

I don't think there are trees blocking it in the woods.

Now at the beach, Su Ran felt a little dizzy from the sun after only picking up shellfish and blue worms on the beach for a while!

And she already felt that the hot weather was unbearable, let alone Hui.

At this moment, its whole body was soaked in the sea water, with only one head exposed.

Occasionally, it would turn over and dive into the water, and after a while, it would throw a fish up from the water.

It was only now that Su Ran discovered that the reason why the orcs were naked and refused to wear clothes was probably because they were sensitive to heat but not cold.

In the cold spring before, my body was hot to the touch without an inch of ash on it.

Now it is midsummer, as long as it is exposed to the sun for a while, Hui will rush to the house or under the tree to escape the heat.

At this time, Su Ran didn't dare to stay in the sun for too long.

She moved the fire and cooking to the edge of the woods behind.The tall trees overhead cast shadows just enough to block the scorching sun.

As she had imagined before, she built a canopy here that was slightly larger than that on the river beach.

Then she put some tools that she didn't need to take back and put them all inside the awning.

Not far outside the canopy, Su Ran also set up a cooking stove for cooking food and salt.

At this moment, there were two baskets of green soap fruit in front of Su Ran.

Nearly three months have passed, and the green soap fruit has been fully hydrated before, and then slightly hydrated later, and now, the pulp inside has become completely dry.

After opening, even as long as you scrape the pulp lightly with your fingernails, the dried and powdered saponin pulp will fall off like powder.

This should be what the green saponins look like when they are fully ripe.

Because of the construction of the house, Hui rarely flew to the beach to find food during this period of time, so Su Ran and the others didn't eat green saponins much.

Although Su Ran knew that the flesh of the green saponaria was drying all the time, she didn't know what it would eventually look like.

So when she first saw the appearance of the current green saponin pulp, Su Ran was stunned!
After she scraped off a piece of flesh that had turned into white powder with her nails and tasted it, the expression on her face instantly became shocked!
The state of this pulp!
This powdery taste!
Isn't this just flour!
The fully matured saponin pulp has been dried without any moisture!
In the same way, the sweetness that the pulp would have had in the past is almost gone now.

If you don't look at the original appearance of the green soap fruit, but directly grind the white flesh into a fine powder, and compare it with the flour, you won't be able to see the difference between them now.

Su Ran, who discovered the change of the green saponin fruit, picked a basket of fruit and went back that day.

After returning, she put two tables on the grass outside the house, and spread a clean animal skin on the table.

Then she cracked most of the fruit onto the hide.

There are still some undried fruits in the cracked fruit, so they are placed on the animal skin to continue drying in the sun.

As for the dried ones, she used a wooden spoon to dig out all the pulp that had turned into dry powder.

The fully ripe acacia fruit has a thick skin, the color changes from green to a little yellow, and it is hard to the touch, a bit like a coconut shell.

After digging out the flesh of the saponins, Su Ran directly found a round thick wooden stick, sawed it into a length of more than 20 centimeters, and then used the wooden stick to crush the flesh first, and then crushed it into powder .

Before starting to make food with these green saponin powder, Su Ran was still a little uncertain.

Because she remembers that when the green saponaria was boiled and eaten, the flesh of the cooked green saponaria would turn translucent.

She wasn't sure if the green saponins would look the same after they were cooked.

If it is, then these green saponins may have to be removed from its and ash's recipe.

Because the sticky texture of the pulp after it becomes transparent is really unpalatable!
On the same day, Su Ran made pimple soup directly with the saponin fruit powder.

Because she was afraid that it would not taste good and waste other ingredients, so she only used one green saponin.

Put the mutton oil into the pot, heat the pot, first put in the fresh scallops picked up from the seaside, and then add thick lettuce leaves and kelp leaves to stir-fry together. After the frying is almost done, add water and salt.

Stir the green saponin fruit powder with water into a slightly thicker paste. After the soup in the pot boils, use a spoon to scoop the fruit powder paste into the pot with a small spoon.

The fruit powder sticking to the spoon immediately fell off when it hit the boiling hot water, rolling in the pot with the boiling scallop and vegetable soup.

Su Ran was putting the batter while watching the situation in the pot.

And until the bowl of pimple soup came out of the pot, the white noodles in the pot did not change in color.

Su Ran's excited hands trembled slightly!

She fished out a piece of noodles and took a closer look, and found that the edges of these noodles were still slightly transparent, but it was not as obvious as before.

She couldn't wait to quickly blow on the dough twice, and put the dough into her mouth.

When the teeth bite open the cooked soft noodles, the umami taste of the seafood on the outside of the noodles overflows the mouth, and then a familiar taste of pasta sticks to the tip of the tongue.

Su Ran almost burst into tears the moment she tasted the texture of the noodles!

This is pure flour!

This is a carbohydrate staple food that makes people feel extremely satisfied after one bite! !
Unexpectedly, she could still taste the staple food of flour in her lifetime! !

So almost all the pimple soup in this pot went into Su Ran's stomach.

Compared to Su Ran, who was delighted because she found flour, Hui didn't like the taste of flour that much.

But it just doesn't like to eat gnocchi, but it doesn't mean it doesn't eat it.

Su Ran served it a bowl of soup with only a few pieces of gnocchi, but it drank it up.

The pimple soup has the umami taste of scallops and kelp, and the thick lettuce leaves are tender and soft after being stir-fried and then boiled.

After a meal, Su Ran felt a great sense of satisfaction.

From that day on, Su Ran began to pay special attention to these green saponins, which had reached their ripening season.

Su Ran counted the green soapfruit trees by the sea, and there were 24 in total.

And according to what Hui said, there are still several places where saponaria trees grow in the nearby forest.

But because what they eat during this time is all from the seaside.

So now there are not many green saponins left on the trees here.

After all, there was a period of time when Hui was very addicted to eating roasted green soap fruit.

And now, Su Ran had to take all the green soap fruits back home before they were destroyed and eaten by other animals.
