Chapter 60 Bacon
In fact, a refrigerator made of wood is not good. After all, wood products are easy to rot. If ice is placed for a long time, the wooden refrigerator will be soaked in water, and the service life will be shortened.Yun Yiyi also thought about painting the outside with a layer of paint, or using better materials.But this world probably does not have paint as a material. As for using other substances, the cost is high and it is not easy to do.

Yun Yiyi hasn't figured out this place yet, at least she doesn't know if there are good blacksmiths and manufacturers.

This thing that surprised the cubs, in her opinion, is only for temporary use, and when there is a chance in the future, it will be made with the best materials.

In this plastic-free world, perhaps something like brass could be used.

Yun Yiyi quickly calculated in her mind that if she wanted to live a good life, she had to work hard to make money, which was far from enough.

This winter is coming soon, Yun Yiyi also plans to make some dry goods for storage.Now that the weather is cold, she also has a refrigerator, where she can put some food.

After all, every household is now preparing food for the winter, and she followed suit to avoid being treated as a different kind of fresh food when it comes time.Of course, the most important thing is that she is also hungry.

Yun Yiyi plans to make bacon. She always thinks bacon is better than fresh meat, and it tastes better. Her family used to make it every year.

The weather in ancient times was a little different from modern times, perhaps for this reason, they prepared food for the winter much earlier.If this is in modern times, it will take a while to start bacon.

Although the ancient times were also divided into four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, Yun Yiyi discovered that summer is not long, that is, when the weather is hot, it is short.This is also normal. The air in this ancient time is good, there are no industrial waste products, the environment has not been damaged, and the weather is naturally not hot, but it is cold most of the time, which makes many people really helpless.However, the weather is cool and leisurely, and it is also suitable for placing food.

This time Yun Yiyi took out more than a dozen pieces of big meat from the space, and each piece of fatty meat weighed several kilograms. Bacon has been stored for a long time, so she will make more if she wants to make it, so that she can eat it slowly .

Yun Yiyi put the meat in the big basin, didn't care, went to steam the rice by herself, then fried two side dishes, cooked an egg soup, and was ready to eat.

She is now very handy in making these dishes, and the speed is very fast, and they are ready in less than half an hour. On the contrary, the rice has not been cooked yet, so she has to wait for a while.

After the two cubs heard the sound of cooking, they obediently entered the kitchen to serve the dishes, and naturally saw the meat in the kitchen.

It was the first time Yan Dashuang saw so much meat, he pointed at the basin in surprise: "Meat, meat, a lot of meat."

She usually eats meat, but this is the first time Yan Dashuang has seen so much meat put together, one on top of the other, the scene looks very spectacular.

In Yan Xiaoshuang's eyes, these meats are huge, enough for him to eat for a long time.But in Yan Dashuang's mind, these meats have become a plate of delicious braised pork, stewed pork, sliced ​​meat soup, meatballs...

Yan Dashuang pointed the corner of his mouth with his index finger and laughed.

Yun Yiyi gave them a sideways look, "What are you laughing at, bring the food in."

After she finished speaking, she held a plate of egg drop soup by herself. The soup had just boiled, and if it was accidentally spilled, it would burn people. Yun Yiyi usually wouldn't let the two cubs move.

The two cubs also knew that one was holding a plate of shredded pork with green peppers, and the other was holding a plate of stir-fried cabbage. Their expressions were very serious, and they were afraid of spilling the vegetables.

Today is a rest day, and the two cubs don't have to go to class.

Yun Yiyi didn't need to teach the two of them, so she planned to let them go to bed, and she went to deal with the meat first.

Unexpectedly, the two cubs were extremely energetic, looking at her with watery eyes, not wanting to go anywhere.

Yan Dashuang stepped forward and hugged her leg, rubbing his fat face against it, "Mom, I'm going to see the meat."

Yun Yiyi said: "What's so good about meat, don't you eat it every day?"

Yan Xiaoshuang raised his head, "Mother will definitely have to deal with that meat, there is so much meat, it won't fit in the refrigerator, it will go bad." He opened his hand and made a big circle, indicating that it was a lot of meat.

Yan Dashuang didn't understand the refrigerator or anything, but he knew that Xiaoshuang had the same meaning as him, so he nodded in agreement.

Tsk, I also know how to infer other cases from one fact, knowing that the refrigerator can store things, but it can't store so much meat.

However, although this refrigerator preserves food, it only prolongs the time and cannot achieve permanent preservation.Yan Xiaoshuang's learning ability is so strong, she needs to find an opportunity to explain to him in detail, so as not to mislead him.

"Okay, I'm going to make these meats into bacon so that they can be preserved for a longer period of time. If you're interested, come over here." After Yun Yiyi finished speaking, she got up.

Yan Da's eyes lit up quickly, and he didn't slump on the chair as usual, but took the initiative to clean up the bowls and chopsticks before Yan Xiaoshuang, and followed behind like a curious baby: "Mother, what is bacon?"

Anyway, he just knew it was meat, so it must be delicious!
Yun Yiyi thought it was funny, Yan Dashuang was so active only when it came to eating, she couldn't explain the bacon for a while, she said lightly: "It's always good to put a lot of seasoning on the meat and then smoke it eat."

Yan Da's eyes rolled around, and he repeated: "It's delicious." It looked like he wanted to have a bite right away.

After Yun Yiyi cleaned her own bowl and the bowls with vegetables, she made room for the two cubs to clean their rice bowls and chopsticks.

The rice bowls were not stained with oil, and they were freshly eaten bowls. They were easy to wash and not dirty, but they still soaked them in hot water and washed them carefully over and over again.

Yun Yiyi didn't really ask them to do a lot of housework, but she still hoped that the two cubs could do things by themselves.On the one hand, it can cultivate their independent ability, on the other hand, it can also allow them to join the big family, feel that they are part of it, and experience a sense of accomplishment.

In the past, she liked to do some experiments, and she did it alone in the kitchen, not letting the two cubs get close, making them mistakenly think that they couldn't get close, and she was careful every time.This time, when she made bacon, she simply let the two cubs join in and taught them new common sense.

There is also bacon in this world, but few people know how to do it. They usually make bacon, which saves the last step of smoking.

After all, it can be preserved. If you spend time to smoke the meat, you need to spend a lot of firewood. For the frugal people, this is a loss-making business.

Yun Yiyi simply likes the taste of bacon.

"You guys move the stool over here." Yun Yiyi directed the two cubs.

The two cubs moved over two small benches very obediently, Yun Yiyi took out all the seasonings needed, put them on the table, and sat on the bench herself, talking while acting.

"This meat needs to be smeared with 1000 grams of salt, it must be spread evenly..." Yun Yiyi said and poured salt on the meat.

Yan Dashuang saw that the meat was smeared with a layer of snow-white salt, like white snow attached to it, crystal clear and beautiful, and couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of water.

Yan Xiaoshuang asked: "How much is 1000 grams?"

She read nine chapters of arithmetic these days, and taught them simple arithmetic problems, but since they were still young, she simply taught them the addition and subtraction of single digits.

Yan Dashuang also knows simple arithmetic. Every time he knows that adding his own fingers is not enough, he will add his own toes. If it is more complicated, he will not be able to do it.But Yun Yiyi was already very satisfied.

Yun Yiyi didn't teach them the conversion between grams and kilograms.The knowledge in this world is endless, if everything is systematically instilled in them, it is not good.

Besides, they were still young, and Yun Yiyi didn't want to force this knowledge into their minds, but now that there was a ready opportunity, Yun Yiyi gave them a popular science.

Yan Dashuang was not interested in these at all, his eyes were fixed on the meat, and his little paws were eager to move.

Yun Yiyi said, "You can feel it if you want."

After Yan Da washed his hands in vain, he touched the meat very excitedly, and also tried to put salt on it.

Because of the surrounding temperature, the meat is naturally cold, cold and hard to the touch, and occasionally a piece of meat is very soft.

Yan Xiaoshuang seemed to be still calculating the amount of salt in his mind, Yun Yiyi didn't care if they understood, and waved, "Xiao Shuang, come and try."

Yan Dashuang opened his eyes wide, "Nest?"

It was the first time for him to do this kind of thing. He carefully sprinkled salt on the meat, afraid that he would be very nervous if he sprinkled too much or too little.

But seeing that Yun Yiyi didn't have any expression on her face, she breathed a sigh of relief, and joined in the process of marinating meat, feeling more and more fun.

Yun Yiyi waited for them to play, and told them some stories during the period.When I felt that the salt had entered the meat, it was already an hour later.

Then she added an appropriate amount of soy sauce, sugar, and white wine into the basin, and turned it around again during the period.

Yan Dashuang asked curiously, "Mother, is this all right?"

"It's so fast, it's marinated first, and it will take a few days to smoke." Yun Yiyi said.

"Oh." Yan Dashuang glanced at the meat in the basin, narrowed his eyes contentedly, his hands smelled of meat, Yun Yiyi poured a plate of warm water for them, and told them to wash them well.

The meat had been marinated all the time, Yun Yiyi thought about it and went to the kitchen to turn over the meat to make sure it was all marinated and tasty.

The two cubs also often think about bacon.

On the second day, the meat tasted good, so Yun Yiyi pierced a hole in each piece of meat, threaded it with cotton thread, and hung them on the eaves of the kitchen.

She plans to hang such meat for a few days before starting to smoke it.

Yun Yiyi heard that the bacon here will be coated with sulfur to make the pork more bright and beautiful, but eating too much sulfur is harmful to the body, so naturally she will not do this.

Bacon needs a bacon stand, and no one in this village knows how to bacon, Yun Yiyi felt a little embarrassed.If there is no shelf, she can find a substitute. After all, all she needs is a shelf. She can smoke meat by building a shed at will, but there are risks. The substitute she can find is wooden products. If the rack is lit, it will shorten the time to smoke the meat, and maybe the taste will not be as good.

The two cubs didn't know Yun Yiyi's concerns, they only knew that the bacon was about to be ready, but unfortunately there was no shelf for bacon.
