I do research in ancient times

Chapter 220

To tell the truth, except for the use of lard for medical treatment regardless of the cost more than ten years ago, Aunt Niu can rarely consume fat like today.

For Mozong people who have been living a miserable life, oil is a good thing, and every drop is cherished.

After training in Ding'an City for a long time, it was also the first time for Aunt Niu to see so much clear oil, golden and shiny, slightly rippling, and panicked a little at a loss.

With so much oil, eat sparingly and eat for a long time!

Aunt Niu hesitated a little.

"The potatoes...why fry them in oil? They taste delicious when boiled in salt water, so there's no need to waste the oil."

Hearing her question, Ning Zhizi smiled and shook his head.

"Don't worry about using it, Auntie, it's not something expensive."

"This oil is pressed from beans. The raw material is very cheap, but it is a bit laborious. If you don't believe me, ask them."

As he spoke, he turned his head and pointed to the oil extraction team behind him.

"They squeezed the oil."

Suddenly being named, Badou and the two frontier soldiers were taken aback.

When they came back to their senses, the three of them shook their heads hastily.

"Not tired, not tired, not tired at all!"

"Yes! It doesn't take much effort! It's much easier than pressing lamp oil, so you can use it without worry!"

"No, if it's not enough, we'll squeeze it out for you."

When she heard that it was soybean oil, Aunt Niu breathed a sigh of relief, and then her eyes widened in surprise.

"Soybean oil? There is also oil in beans?!"

"Yes, yes, quite a lot!"

Badou felt that he had gained a lot of insight this time, and replied hastily.

"It's all made by Ning Juzi. It's steamed, soaked and baked. It's so complicated!"

"I thought it was Ning Juzi who was cooking, but when I put it in the gate and squeezed the beans, oil came out. It's amazing!"

ah?Can it still be like this? !

Aunt Niu was dubious.

But she has an extraordinary trust in the children she raised with her own hands.Since Jizi spoke, Aunt Niu had nothing to question, so he prepared a cauldron according to his request.

"I think this oil is much clearer than lard. Is there any difference in using it? But it needs to be boiled?"

Ning Zaozi, who is not very good at cooking, could not answer this question.

He thought for a long time, but he could only come up with the sentence "this oil won't solidify at room temperature", nothing else was useful.

"All right, I'll figure it out myself."

Aunt Niu stared at the two oil barrels for a while, then stirred the oily noodles with a spoon, and then beckoned people to cut the potatoes.

"Sliced ​​or diced?"

The helper asked Aunt Niu.

"Slice it, first cut a pot of slices, and then cut a pot of strips."

"okay!"

The helpers are all hands-on, cutting a potato slice is a piece of cake, and soon cut a few large pots of potato slices.

Huo Lu poured two barrels of soybean oil into the cauldron, and the clear liquid rippled slightly, like a small golden lake.

"It's so beautiful."

Badou murmured.

This is all oil, such a big pot, so much oil.

Rao is Badou who grew up in Feng's family, and has never seen such a scene.

"Pour it all in and blow it up."

At the order of Aunt Niu, several pots of potato chips were poured into the large oil pan.

The golden waves are rolling, and the light yellow flakes are undulating up and down, looming between the oil waves.

A seductive fragrance exploded in the air and quickly spread to every corner, domineeringly occupying everyone's sense of smell, making people salivate uncontrollably.

fragrant!It's really fragrant!The fragrance is attractive!

Ning saw that his throat rolled.

Human beings' pursuit of heat can be traced back to ancient times. This desire has been engraved in genes and passed down from generation to generation. Even in modern times thousands of years later, as long as people smell the aroma of heat explosion, people will still feel pleasure involuntarily. feel.

This is an exhortation from the ancestors.

Heat, heat!Heat is the kingly way of survival. It can help human beings survive the most difficult days. It is the basis for maintaining life and an unchangeable passion in instinct.

Modern people are insensitive to this kind of pleasure because they worry about getting sick due to excessive intake of fat.But in Daye Dynasty when it is very difficult to fill the stomach, being fat is not something to worry about at all, oil and water are the source of happiness!

"It's almost there. If you fry it again, it will burn."

Aunt Niu stared at the cauldron with a serious face, as if she was dealing with some important problem.

"Fill them all out, and then put new potatoes in, this time change."

The helpers responded, and swiftly lowered the fence, took the fried golden potato chips out of the pot, and poured them into a pot of potato chips.

Seasoning is the job of Aunt Niu.

She pondered for a while, divided the potato slices into several clay pots, and poured different sauces on them.

The charred aroma mixed with carbohydrates and fats is an irresistible temptation. The aroma wafts out of the food room and instantly captures a large number of unlucky people who pass by by chance.

This group of people was fascinated by the hook, their legs and feet were so weak that they couldn't walk, and all they could think about was going to the big kitchen to see what wonderful things they made today.

So fragrant, so fragrant!It smells so good!It smells so good!

A young boy squatted on the steps and sniffed desperately, surrounded by people in the same posture as him.

"Aunt Niu... is this making fried food? This smells so delicious!"

"Fried food? How is that possible! Where did so much oil come from!"

Oil is a good thing in Mozong, and currently it is mainly produced in pig farms.

But lard is not only used for food, but also supplied to workshops to make soap.Therefore, there are a lot of pig farms, but if it is really used for food, the amount that can be deployed is still very limited.

"I smell like croquettes."

Another dude smacked his mouth.

"Aunt Niu used to nourish Juzi's body. She once made fried meatballs. Alas, that smells delicious!"

When he said this, everyone immediately sighed.

Although the meatballs are delicious, they are too expensive.Only those who are in poor health have the opportunity to enjoy it.After all, Aunt Niu used lard meatballs to save Xiao Ningfei back then, and it was no less than an elixir in Mozong.

"Hey, work hard! When Zongmen makes a lot of money, we can also serve croquettes in the dining room."

An apprentice in a blacksmith's workshop drooled and imagined.

"At that time, I will not only eat croquettes, but also fried sugar cakes! Every day I eat sweet cakes and meat pies next. They are soft, sweet, fragrant and spicy. That is the life of a god. !"

This is really a wonderful dream, which makes everyone's heart itch, as if there are already countless plates of delicious fried food in front of them.

"It's really delicious."

Yu Xin bit her finger, drooling.

"Not only let's go in and have a look, but it's also good to smell it."

Even though he said that, no one dared to move the counselor at the door.

Aunt Niu has dominated Mozong for many years, and the dining room is where she can cover the sky with one hand. If you don't go to the restaurant, you can't enter the door. This is the rule set by Aunt Niu.

When they think of Aunt Niu, everyone is cowardly, but the smell in the yard is really attractive, and they are unwilling to leave like this.

Just at the moment of dilemma, the door of the food room was suddenly opened from the inside.

Just as Ning Fei was about to take a step, he suddenly saw this group of people squatting at the door in unison, so he could only withdraw his foot abruptly, almost reaching his waist.

"What are you blocking the door for?"

"Brother Xiaofei..."

Yu Xin took a deep breath and looked at Ning Juzi eagerly.

"Is Aunt Niu giving you croquettes? Are they delicious?"

In fact, this is really a nonsense question. Except for Ning Juzi himself, no one here knows that Aunt Niu's lard meatballs are extremely delicious. Thinking of the crispy outside and moist inside, everyone's saliva is about to choke.

"what?"

Ning Fei was taken aback, then shook her head.

"Not croquettes, but fried potatoes."

The next moment, he saw the distressed expressions on everyone's faces.

"Lard is so expensive, why use it to fry potatoes? Potatoes are delicious when boiled, so why waste oil and water."

Look, if they are exactly the same, everyone is really short of oil in their stomachs.

Ning Shaozi was not angry either.

His soybean oil was basically successful. Aunt Niu heard about the cost of soybean oil, and now she has completely let herself go, opening the door to a new world where everything can be "fried".

Now on the stove of time, two large pots are boiling hot oil.Fried potato chips, fried potato chips, fried cabbage balls, fried thick face mask, fried calabash, fried soybeans, fried Chinese cabbage, fried eggs, fried shallots and garlic, and even the combination of fried pickles has been put on the big table in the dining room .

At the end of the explosion, everyone forgets themselves.The three members of the oil extraction team ate their mouths full of oil, clutched their stomachs and refused to leave. They insisted on fighting the potato chips for another [-] rounds.

Ning saw that he couldn't take it anymore.

Aunt Niu obviously regarded him as a gourmet, and asked him to comment on every new dish.

Thinking that it was this straightforward and stubborn woman who saved the dying baby and gave the original body a rare life, Ning Fei felt unable to refuse.

He had a light diet in his previous life, and in this life he also prefers fresh and sweet tastes.Although I miss fried food, I will be full after a few bites, and I will feel a burden on my body if I eat more.

At the end of the meal, he had no choice but to escape from the house to take refuge on the grounds that the cooking fume was choking.

Unexpectedly, I just ran into a group of drooling cowards.

Ning Zazi rolled his eyes, and immediately opened the door with a smile.

"You guys came just in time. Aunt Niu has tried out a new menu, and there is a shortage of people to try the dishes. If you have time, you can take a look."

No one to try dishes?We are free!

In the next second, a group of people scrambled towards the door of the restaurant, and even ran off their shoes in a hurry, rushing in with one bare foot.

"Auntie! Auntie! I heard that you are short of a dish tester. I might eat it. Let me come!"

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

"Give me a potato chip, please, I'll give you vegetable balls instead..."

"Who the hell is pulling my pants!? Well, where is the fried green onion that I just took? Who gave it away?!"

The oil splashed, the smoke evaporated, and the smell of fireworks in the world floated in the air, as blazing as golden clear oil.

Standing at the door of the dining room, Ning Fei watched everyone scrambling for a taste, every face showed happiness and satisfaction, and felt warm in his heart.

Soybean oil is undoubtedly a success, and it will also change the lives of people in Jiuling City and even Yongxiguan.And just now, he checked the progress of the system tasks and found that under the item of oil extraction technology, he had gained 10 points of influence.

He asked Zha Tong, this is the basic score that means that new technology has come out and has application value, and the impact value evaluation has not yet seen the effect.

Next, he plans to consider improving the oil extraction process and increasing oil production.Not only soybean oil, but also rapeseed oil, peanut oil, etc., enriching the non-staple food of the people in this era is definitely a great achievement.

Not only does he want to make this soybean oil a big deal, but he also wants to expand its application and earn more influence points for himself!
