After living on a desert island, they all plotted evil against me.

The last step is to fire it and then put it into use.

Zhang Liu turned his head and glanced at the girls around him, feeling a little emotional in his heart.

Counting the time, the five of them had actually not sat around the earthen stove waiting for food for quite some time.

Eat in a hurry, eat and then go to bed immediately.

It has become a normal life situation for everyone these days.

But now, the words suddenly have another flavor, the flavor of life:

"Squeak..."

"Squeak..."

Xiang Wanying and Su Yan were holding a palm core and chewing it. Since the honeycomb honey had been eaten, they no longer roasted it, so the fresh palm core made a crunching sound in their mouths.

It sounds very crispy and refreshing.

"Gah bang...bah..."

Although 90.00% of the plantains have been cut, mixed with salty broth and fed to Xiao Huang and Xiao Bai.

But Anya also cut off the five greenest-looking beards from the pig's mouth and prepared to eat them herself.

In her words, "These ones look so green, they might be as delicious as bananas!"

Faced with this enthusiasm, Zhang Liu and Xiang Wanying, who had tasted the taste of plantains repeatedly, shook their heads decisively. Although Lan Yueting and Su Yan accepted it, they did not dare to eat it casually.

Anya didn't think much about it. She used a knife to peel off the banana and bit it.

Her expression that was still somewhat expectant immediately froze.

The astringent pulp tastes second, and the small stone-like seeds inside become bitter after being bitten into pieces.

Wrinkling her little face, Anya spit it out directly, then picked up the bamboo tube next to her and poured a mouthful of fresh water into her mouth to rinse.

But unfortunately, fresh water cannot remove the bitter taste on the tongue.

She could only stick out her tongue that seemed to be swollen in embarrassment, hoping that it would make herself feel better.

"Ah..."

Beside Anya, who kept peeing, Lan Yueting was holding an almost ripe papaya and putting it in her mouth.

Seeing the condition of her companion next to her, she quickly pinched off a piece and put it into his mouth.

Feeling that there was finally a bit of sweetness in her mouth, Anya's expression eased.

Zhang Liu didn't pay attention to the girls' situation.

Currently he is looking at the four bamboo tubes that are boiling in a small clay pot.

Since the rain, taro flour has lost the opportunity to dry.

As for drying it directly with fire, that is really impossible.

Because taro powder that has not yet been dried will quickly turn into a gray-white viscous translucent liquid when exposed to high temperatures.

However, the precipitation and production of taro flour has not stopped. So far, eight bamboo tubes have been accumulated. Without sunlight, everyone can only hope that it can be "dried in the shade."

But for now, Zhang Liu plans to boil them directly in water, then take them out, knead them into balls and flatten them, wrap them in egg yolk and tamarind pulp puree to make "taro dumplings", and fry them in lard.

Of course, this is the best plan.

If the taro dumplings cannot be formed in the end, they will become "taro balls".

After hearing his dinner recipe, all the girls were full of expectations. They almost didn't do anything and just concentrated on sitting around the earthen stove.

Here are the drawings for making a clay stove:

The bamboo tube inside the small clay pot is always open.

The biggest advantage of this approach is that you can most intuitively see the changes in the "taro paste" inside.

From white to gray, then gradually translucent.

This represents the maturity of the taro paste.

Zhang Liu poked the surface with a branch and found that it was already in a semi-solidified state. He immediately took out the bamboo tube and placed it next to it.

The next step is to prepare the pulp puree which should be relatively simple.

Xiang Wanying and Lan Yueting brought back twelve egg yolks, a bunch of tamarinds, six papayas, and a whole pack of mint leaves from their trip.

Mint leaves with special fragrance and papaya with high juice content are obviously not suitable to be added to taro dumplings.

Then only the first two remain.

Take out three egg yolk fruits, peel and core them, and put the pulp into a bamboo tube for later use.

Then put in the tamarind pulp that has been processed by Xiang Wanying.

Zhang Liu shook his head and declined Anya's intention to come over and help.

Holding a bamboo joint that was slightly thinner than the bamboo tube, he began to pound it up and down.

If it weren't for Xiang Wanying's quick hands and feet just now, Zhang Liu would even want to do the work of handling Tamarind himself.

Because this dinner was for him to apologize to the four girls in front of him.

Chapter 451 A good bestie never forgets to take you with her even if she eats secretly...

After tinkering for a while, the sound of "bah, bah" coming from the bamboo tube in his hand made Zhang Liu slightly helpless.

Because such a sound represents high moisture content.

Although there is no way to determine how sticky the boiled taro paste will be.

But if there are fillings with a lot of juice inside, the picture will definitely be very "cruel" when fried. This is the tragic experience he learned from frying yuanxiao for his two sisters before he was in danger...

After thinking about it slightly, Zhang Liu quickly came up with a solution, which was the same as dealing with soil...adding fried and dried taro powder.

In the slightly confused eyes of the four girls around him, he stood up and went to the side to pick up a bamboo tube of fried dried taro powder and walked to the fire.

"Zhang Liu..." Seeing this scene, Xiang Wanying swallowed the palm core in her mouth, and then said seriously: "What's wrong?"

It was only at this moment that she suddenly realized that the expression on the boy in front of her seemed a little too serious. Looking at the changes in the expression on Zhang Liu's face, Xiang Wanying began to recall what happened today.

But no matter how much she thought, she couldn't figure out what was wrong.

Aren’t everyone working hard?

"Oh, the filling was too dry, so I added a little taro powder to mix it up." Zhang Liu smiled and then explained.

Xiang Wanying opened her mouth slightly but said nothing.

As a woman who has had "negative distance" contact with the other person through her mouth.

She can also have a preliminary grasp of Zhang Liu's expression, just like if the bite was too hard before, the left cheek of the other party would twitch slightly, and if it was too light, the brow would be slightly wrinkled...

At this moment, Xiang Wanying was very sure that the boy in front of her was in a "serious" state, so she didn't dare to speak more without knowing the situation.

"This taro powder is what you will use when you set out to explore the wilderness later..." Next to Xiang Wanying, Su Yan could not confirm the other person's emotional changes through Zhang Liu's micro-expression.

So she immediately spoke out her worries.

Hearing what someone said, Xiang Wanying nodded in agreement.

"Well, it does need to be used in the jungle, but it doesn't matter if you use it now." Hearing the worry in Su Yan's tone, Zhang Liu explained with a smile: "In my plan, it only takes eight days at most to cross this jungle. , I currently have five bamboo tubes of taro powder, and even if I eat one tube a day, I will still have two bamboo tubes of meat floss left."

In fact, he also understood the preciousness of food after entering the rainforest.

But at this moment, Zhang Liu understood even more what excessive things he had done to the girls in the past few days.

So he was mentally prepared.

That is, I would rather be hungry for a day, but I would also give the four people in front of me a good meal as compensation and apology.

"Okay... okay." After hearing the explanation, Su Yan nodded, and then her eyes began to show an expression of expectation involuntarily.

Compared to Anya who hates the taste of fried dried taro powder.

Su Yan, who had only dipped a little bit with her fingers before and tasted the sweet taste, was quite satisfied with its taste.

After Zhang Liu spoke like this.

An Ya and Lan Yueting, who had originally planned to speak, stopped talking.

Concentrating, several people continued to watch the cooking process of the man in front of them.

Add one-sixth of the taro powder into the stuffing bamboo tube, and when Zhang Liu used the bamboo joints to pound it again, there would be no more "squeaking" juice sounds.

After stirring it up and down for a while to make sure that the pulp and taro powder inside were completely integrated, he turned the bamboo tube upside down on the banana leaves that had been laid on the ground.

As Zhang Liu hit the bottom of the bamboo tube hard with the bamboo joint in his hand, it made a "bang bang" sound, and a large ball of puree filling slowly came out from the inside, and then landed on the banana leaf.

Since the egg yolks account for a relatively small proportion, the entire filling looks darker, like newly sticky chocolate or bean paste.

"I'll try..."

Anya has a character that dares to put anything into her mouth, so facing this almost black fruit puree filling, she directly dipped some of it with her fingers, then put it in her mouth and started to taste it.

Pursing her lips and feeling the taste bursting out of her mouth, Anya's eyes suddenly lit up.

The sweet and sour taste of tamarind and the sweetness of egg yolk fruit have been completely blended together.

The addition of taro powder also improves their original rotten taste.

If she were asked to give an adjective, maybe sweet bean paste would be fine.

"It's so delicious! Yanyan, take a bite too!" Anya has always been willing to share good things with her friends.

Otherwise, Zhang Liu would not have brought his 1000 yuan tool to serve Su Yan before he was in danger.

After eating something good, she immediately scooped some of it up with her fingers and brought it to her best friend's mouth.

After sending it off, Anya looked at Zhang Liu with a little regret.

If they were alone together, then she would deliver it to the other person's mouth.

Without hesitation, Su Yan opened her mouth and ate the puree filling handed over by Anya. Then her clear eyes suddenly lit up, and an expression of uncontrollable joy appeared on her face, and she exclaimed: "It's so delicious!"

Seeing the reaction of their two companions, Xiang Wanying and Lan Yueting couldn't help but pick up their usual bamboo chopsticks and put a piece into their mouths.

Then because of their fondness for desserts, the four girls couldn't stop, but after a while, half of the fillings had been wiped out.

Zhang Liu, who was staring at four bamboo tubes and thinking about how to make taro dumpling wrappers, had just finished thinking.

Then he turned around and saw such a scene, and others were immediately dumbfounded...

Noticing Zhang Liu's expression, Xiang Wanying took the lead to stop her chopsticks.

She secretly glanced at the already confused opponent, and her face immediately showed a guilty expression of "I know this is wrong, but I just can't help it."

Xiang Wanying's behavior also made the other three excited girls aware of it.

Realizing that they might have eaten the fillings, they quickly stopped their chopsticks.

Feeling that the filling was not very symmetrical, Anya hesitated for a few seconds, and suddenly she felt "obsessive-compulsive" and quickly picked up the chopsticks and put a big dollop into her mouth.

Although there is still some asymmetry...

But under the gaze of the other three girls, Anya was too embarrassed to take action no matter how thick-skinned she was.

He could only say in a low voice: "Zhang Liu, this is delicious, you should take a bite too..."

Hearing that Anya was still trying to make things worse in this situation, Xiang Wanying couldn't help but show a bit of admiration in her eyes...

"It's okay, you guys keep eating. I'll make some more after you're done. There are still plenty of tamarinds and egg yolks left." Zhang Liu looked at the "I'm sorry, I ate it" expressions on the faces of the four girls at the same time.

He couldn't help but smile and said, "Everyone should relax tonight."

……………………This is the dividing line.

Sorry, sorry, this is the drawing of the earthen stove that I forgot to add in the previous chapter.


Chapter 452 makes me cry...

After hearing Zhang Liu's words, the four girls decisively continued to taste the rare dessert in front of them.

In fact, they all want to feed the boy in front of them alone.
