Guozijian little cook

Chapter 183 It's still a Baking Soda Problem
Xiao Nianzhi can only think of military rations that are slightly better than the current dry rations...

compressed biscuits.

Even if it is this, there is no way to produce it on a large scale for the time being.

the reason is simple.

Foodstuff.

In other words, the auxiliary materials are incomplete.

In order to reduce the possibility of water absorption of compressed biscuits, a leavening agent should be added inside.

The most suitable, in fact, is baking powder.

If you don't have it, baking soda is fine too.

Baking soda has no way to be a substitute for baking powder, it can only be said to be a choice under no other means.

Baking powder is an extended seasoning after acid-base reaction on the basis of baking soda.

However, the baking soda hasn't been made yet, relying on this in Xiao Nianzhi's hands, he really can't make enough compressed biscuits for the army.

However, this is a good opportunity.

Yan Xingxuan said that he had already greeted the Imperial Hospital, Shanglinyuan Supervisor, and the Agricultural Supervisor to remind them to pay attention to this kind of thing.

Xiao Nianzhi gave out a part, and let them research and discover.

The production of baking soda involves a lot of knowledge.

If you don't specialize in chemical knowledge, it is actually difficult to extract it.

However, without a leavening agent, it is difficult to achieve the purpose of compressing and compacting biscuits.

In particular, there is no suitable packaging nowadays, only paper bags, if the waterproof performance is poor, and there is no leavening agent, then the compressed biscuits will probably become water-absorbing biscuits soon?

Seeing that Xiao Nianzhi was lost in thought, Guo Sixue pursed her lips, and quickly said: "Let's play cards, think about it later, it's not a very urgent matter."

The tense relationship in the Northwest does not mean that there will be a fight.

Of course, if the other party is provoking frequently, then His Majesty will definitely not spoil them.

He just doesn't want to fight and takes good care of the people's livelihood. It doesn't mean that he is scared and dare not fight.

That rabbit will bite people when it is in a hurry, not to mention that His Majesty is not a rabbit!

The matter of military rations is urgent, but it may not be able to be produced in a hurry.

Guo Sixue knew it in her heart, so she calmed down even more.

Without Xiao Nianzhi, could it be that they would not be able to fight?
Guo Sixue also just wanted to let the border soldiers eat a little better if conditions permit, so that they will be more powerful when fighting.

Seeing that the little girl seemed a little discouraged, Xiao Nianzhi explained in a low voice: "It's not impossible, but there is a lack of materials."

Guo Sixue's eyes lit up when he heard that there was a solution.

When she heard it again, there was a lack of materials, so she immediately raised her head: "Tell me, what's missing, I'll find a way!"

Her voice was a little high, and she immediately attracted the attention of everyone who was about to play cards.

Yan Xingxuan didn't hear anything else, only two words: material.

Material?

what material?
Do you want to study what to eat again?

What is missing to find him!

If he doesn't have it, he can still go to the emperor, the queen mother, and the king of Kang...

Everyone looked over and did not put too much pressure on Xiao Nianzhi. Facing Aunt Yu's suspicious gaze, she explained softly: "Xue Niang asked me if there is any more nutritious and better-tasting military rations. It has been written in the books I have read before, but there are few materials.”

As soon as he heard that it was military rations, Yan Xingxuan's interest was halved.

Marching and fighting, the conditions are difficult, and the food is definitely not good.

Even if it is an improved version, it is estimated that it will not work.

It's just that the situation in the northwest is tense now. Although he doesn't care about the government, he is the prince of the Jin Dynasty, so it's impossible for him to really not care about it at all.

If that family is gone, he is still a fart prince?

"What material is missing?"

"What's more?"

"Is there anything I can do to help?"

……

After hearing this, everyone looked at each other and almost made noise.

Xiao Nianzhi took out the baking soda wrapped in paper from his cuff, gently opened it, revealed it, and motioned for several people to see: "Here, this is it."

Yan Xingxuan and Yan Changxia are no strangers to this thing.

After all, they brought this back to the palace and went to places like the Si Nong Jian before.

However, the others didn't quite understand it, so they got closer to take a closer look.

"Huh? So white?"

"Is this medicine?"

"It doesn't look like it, it smells like nothing."

……

Everyone didn't care about their manners, they all gathered around and took a closer look.

After discovering this thing, after they didn't understand it, they finally understood what Xiao Nianzhi meant by not having enough materials.

They really don't know about this.

Guo Sixue was puzzled: "This thing...is it hard to find?"

Regarding this, Xiao Nianzhi nodded: "It should be, I'm not sure, it was left to me by my father, at first he was planning to research medicine, but he didn't see any effect, and then he tried I went to the food side to study, if you put this in the noodles, the steamed buns will be softer."

Speaking of this, Xiao Nianzhi smiled with a hint of nostalgia in his eyebrows and eyes: "At first, my father and I didn't dare to eat it. Later, after experimenting with rabbits and chickens, we found that there was no problem, so we dared to try it. , the taste is not affected, but the dough is softer."

As soon as I heard that it was discovered by the deceased Father Xiao, and hearing what Xiao Nianzhi meant, it was obvious that Father Xiao did not pass on this craft to her.

Aunt Yu guessed that Xiao's father was probably afraid that the medical girl's survival would not be easy, so he refused to teach his only daughter all his medical skills.

If it were Aunt Yu, she wouldn't know how to teach it.

Although it is said to be a family study, but...

This world is still a little difficult for women.

Especially in medicine, many people say that there is no gender in the eyes of doctors.

But is that really the case?
In the eyes of doctors, there is no need, but in the eyes of ordinary people?
Others understand this more or less. Zhou Libai actually has a lot of questions that she doesn't understand, but seeing that other people seem to understand, she is too embarrassed to ask more questions.

Seeing that Guo Sixue was lost in thought, Yan Xingxuan thought for a while and said, "I've already looked for this thing before, in places like the Imperial Hospital and the Supervisor of Agriculture, and they will work hard, but if your family has the ability, they can also help. try to find."

Guo Sixue: .

to their house.

hiss!
A group of simple-minded reckless men, apart from being good at fighting, they are really not good at other things.

However, you can't give up on yourself just because of this, right?
Still have to work hard!

The Eldest Princess took a closer look, then signaled Shen Ye to remember the taste and shape, and at the same time asked Shen Ye to speak on her behalf: "Your Highness said, she will also pay attention to it."

After hearing this, Yan Xingxuan turned his head and looked at the eldest princess expectantly.

The princess's scalp was numb from his gaze, and she took a few steps back in an instant.

Don't look at her as the emperor's sister, but she can't stand it...

Little Sixteen, he's an asshole!

Princess Huayang didn't want to understand the meaning of the other party so quickly, but she understood the other party at a glance.

Sometimes, she wondered if they were brothers and sisters of the same mother.

This tacit understanding, the brothers and sisters are here, they must be jealous!
