Chapter 108: peanut!

   No matter how you complain, it is truly a good thing to find peanuts.

   Although the beans are also very good, they can make porridge, can make tofu, can make soy milk, can supplement protein, but where are the peanuts enjoyable?

Peanuts can be eaten raw, fried, cooked, or porridge. The most important thing is that with peanuts, you can squeeze the oil, and with the oil, the tofu made from beans can change in the future. Eat it in a tricky way.

   Braised tofu, spicy tofu, stewed tofu, um, there are also potato roast beef, stewed beef, grilled beef strips, chili beef... When I think of the stir-fries, Ishikuma feels that his saliva is increasing rapidly.

   "Great Bear, Great Bear, what do you think? Why don't you talk when I ask you?"

   Hong Yun's dissatisfied voice pulled Shi Xiong out of the wonderful food fantasy. Turning around, Hong Yun was staring at herself unhappy.

   "Oh, I was thinking about something just now. If you have any questions, you can say it again."

   Hongyun stared at Shixiong dissatisfiedly and then said: "I just asked you, can these peanuts also make tofu?"

"Peanut tofu? Of course! This peanut can of course be made tofu, and the tofu made from peanuts tastes better. Well, besides making tofu, the most important thing is to squeeze oil! This is peanuts. The greatest use."

   "Oil extraction? What is oil extraction? Can it be eaten?" Hong Yun asked in a puzzled manner, and the women next to her also had a "please inform" expression on their faces.

   "Cough cough...you can't eat this squeezed oil..."

   "Oh..." Before Shixiong's voice had finished, the ladies said a long "Oh" in unison, and their tone was full of disappointment.

"Well, what? Although you can't eat this oil, the oil is necessary to make a lot of delicious food. To put it bluntly, oil extraction is only a method or a process, and the extracted oil is the key. ."

   "The squeezed oil? Is it delicious?" The ladies asked again in unison.

   "My God, how come I met such a bunch of hungry ghosts and reborn girls!" Shi Xiong slapped his forehead helplessly and muttered in Chinese in a low voice. He was completely defeated.

"You can’t eat the squeezed oil, but this oil is specially used for cooking. The cooked dishes are delicious... Forget it, now I’ll explain to you that you don’t understand it. I’ll use it later. You know what the peanuts are used for when the oil is squeezed out."

   "Then wait for you to use the squeezed oil to make delicious dishes, we will eat again..." The ladies said in unison again, turning around one by one after speaking.

   "Oh...Don't go, how many peanuts are there? Where are they?"

   Hongyun turned his head and smiled at Shi Xiong and said: "Dali Xiong, you can find it by yourself. There are a lot of peanuts in this room. You can leave the seeds, and you can call the rest." Finished. The lady also walked out of the wooden house.

   "Damn, eat and wipe and leave!" Shixiong muttered helplessly again.

   But I heard Hongyun said that there are a lot of peanuts, which is indeed good news.

   Shi Xiong searched this wooden house and found a lot of peanuts. Some of these peanuts are peeled, some are peeled, and some are already moldy...

   But in general, the quantity is a lot, there are hundreds of bags.

   It can be seen that peanuts are still very popular in the tribe, otherwise it would be impossible to keep so many peanuts in the warehouse.

   Where is the origin of peanuts? It’s still hard to say. Some said the country of origin was Brazil, some said it was Egypt, and some said it was in China.

Before the 16th century, China basically did not have a peanut crop. However, archaeologists discovered carbonized peanut seeds in China twice. This evidence shows that peanuts existed in China as early as the Neolithic. I know why this crop once disappeared in China, and it was introduced to China by Europeans in the 16th century.

   Anyway, no matter where peanuts are originally produced, Central and South America started planting peanuts a long time ago. There is no doubt about this.

   And because of geographical reasons, there are also some Indian tribes in North America that have started planting peanuts long before Columbus discovered the New World. This is also an indisputable fact. Not to mention other tribes, the Gaoshu tribe alone has a history of planting peanuts for hundreds of years.

   This history is much longer than the history of the tribe planting soybeans.

   And the peanut stuff is really delicious, even if it is eaten raw, it is a very good food, so it is not surprising that there are so many peanuts in the tribe.

   There are only a hundred bags of peanuts, but in fact it is less than three thousand catties. Everyone in the tribe still weighs less than ten catties.

   This quantity is not much, really not much, so it must be used together to reflect the value of peanuts.

   Although peanuts are delicious, they are better for squeezing oil.

  Peanuts are among the top crops in terms of oil yield, especially peanut kernels after peeling. The oil yield is second only to sesame seeds. However, the yield of sesame is far lower than that of peanuts, so peanuts are the best crop for oil extraction.

  Of course~www.readwn.com~ Compared with soybean oil squeezed from soybeans, although peanut oil is far inferior to soybean oil in quantity, it tastes stronger than soybean oil.

   In China, peanut oil is a high-end oil, while soybean oil can only be regarded as a medium-to-low-grade oil.

   There are peanuts in the tribe, so who still squeezes oil from soybeans?

   These three thousand catties of peanuts are deducted from the seeds, and then peeled off, there will be about two thousand catties left at most. However, the oil output rate of peanuts is as high as 40%. Even if there is no modern oil press of later generations, even if the most primitive methods are used to extract oil, the oil output rate will not be less than 30%.

   Two thousand catties of peanut kernels can produce at least six hundred catties of peanut oil!

   If you can really squeeze 600 catties of peanut oil, save a little bit and eat enough for the tribe for a few months.

  Looking at the peanuts that were found, Shi Xiong's mind couldn't help but toss up a lot of stir-fried vegetables. Unknowingly, a gleam of crystal appeared on the corner of this big head's mouth...

   put out his tongue and licked the corner of his mouth fiercely. Ishikuma decided to start the preparations for oil extraction immediately.

  In later generations, oil extraction is all mechanized oil extraction, and various oil presses emerge unconsciously, and oil extraction is also a very easy task.

   But here, in this North American Indian tribe with nothing, to squeeze these peanuts out of fragrant peanut oil, a lot of preparation work is needed, and the complexity is no worse than steelmaking.

   But no matter how complicated it is, I have to do it!

   As a glutton of a big food empire, how could Shixiong let go of peanut oil?

   There are many iron pots in the tribe now, and even the frying ladle is easy to make. So, as long as peanut oil is squeezed out, can those delicious dishes be far away?
