Reborn Farmhouse: Planting Fields, Flirting with People

Chapter 362 Studying New Foods

When people get along with each other, they must be measured and measured, especially between relatives.

The sale of roast duck was temporarily shelved.

Li Mingyue didn't go into details, for fear of hurting Liu Shi's heart, she just said that there are too many things to do, and she lacks energy right now, so don't worry about this matter, I'll talk about it later.

Early the next morning, Fang Yuan really took Li Mingzhi to the reed marsh again, and even took the two dogs at home with him.

The two men and the two dogs were full of fighting spirit, and a group of wild ducks in the reed marsh suffered a great crime. They were chased and ran around, and the duck feathers fell all over the ground, and even the duck eggs that they worked so hard to save were picked up.

Looking at the dozen or so wild ducks and two baskets of wild duck eggs that the two of them had caught, Li Mingyue couldn't laugh or cry.

Mrs. Liu selected a few female ducks to raise them to lay eggs, and asked Li Mingyue to roast the remaining six male ducks.

The family had another delicious meal of roast duck at night. After eating two, Li Mingyue wrapped the remaining four in oiled paper and brought them to the academy for Fang Yuan to eat. The weather has not turned hot in the past two days. , It will not deteriorate after two or three days at room temperature.

After staying in Lijia Village for four days, Fang Yuan rushed back to the academy non-stop. When he came back, he brought with him longing, and when he left, he brought a big box of food and a deep nostalgia.

After sending Fangyuan away, Li Mingyue felt empty in her heart, missing him, missing him, missing him...

It's not good to be so decadent all the time.She found something for herself to do—research on new foods.

Now Fu Sheng Ji only has three kinds of food, which is too single. If you want to continue to do it for a long time, and become bigger and stronger, it is not enough to rely on these three things.

In the past few days, Li Mingyue kept recalling modern food, especially snacks, such as KFC, Mala Tang, Oden, and skewers, and then thought of mobile phones, tablets, Weibo... The more I think about it, the hungrier I get, the more I think about it The more I miss it, the more I think about it, the more depressed I become...

Thinking about it this way, it reminded Li Mingyue of a good thing—preserved fruit.

In this year and month, there is no greenhouse for planting and no cold storage, so basically only seasonal fruits and vegetables can be eaten.Especially in the northern region, in the winter, if you want to eat apricots, plums, etc., it is simply a dream, and it doesn't cost much.

Li Mingyue originally wanted to make canned fruit. Compared with canned fruit, the appearance of canned fruit is better, and it can better maintain the original taste of fresh fruit.But that thing does not add preservatives, and the shelf life is at most one or two months, and it is completely sealed. If it is not sealed properly, it will become moldy and smelly.So, this is useless.

Although preserved fruit loses the freshness of the fruit, the taste is also unique. It can be eaten as a snack. In the winter when there is no fresh fruit, it is not bad to use it to satisfy the craving. Moreover, the most important point is that this thing is better preserved and not easy to rot , also convenient for transportation.

However, if you want to make preserved fruit, it is best to have a fruit forest at home.

Most of the peasant households in this era made a living by growing food, and no family grew fruit at all, because the fruit was rotten and not durable for storage. If it could not be sold when it was ripe, it would just rot in the ground and be worthless.

There are wild fruits on the mountain, and they don't cost money, but the output of wild fruits is too small to be enough.

After discussing with Li Shou, Li Mingyue spent 700 taels of silver to buy a barren hill of nearly a thousand acres near Lijia Village.
