Chapter 38 The long-lost aroma of rice

While steaming the rice, Su Yu started cooking on another stove.

Heat the pot, put the evenly fat and thin meat slices into the pot, stir out the fat first, and wait until both sides of the meat slices are slightly golden. Su Yu quickly pours all the red fruit slices, knotty nuts and fungus prepared in advance. Into the pot.

The sound of "sizzling" sounded as the side dishes were put into the pot, and the oil splashed with the fragrance.

Su Yu manipulated the spatula skillfully and quickly stir-fried the vegetables in the pot. The aroma and heat rose together and penetrated into Su Yu's nasal cavity, causing secretions to secrete in her mouth unconsciously. body fluid.

The speed in her hands increased a bit. After the fried meat came out of the pot, Su Yu quickly blanched the shredded potatoes, took them out and drained them, and then started the next step.

Scooping out a spoonful of oil from the oil barrel, Su Yu poured all the prepared bean sprouts, knotweed nuts, and spinach nuts into the pot, stir-fry out the fragrance, and then, Pour the blanched shredded potatoes into the pot and stir-fry.

After adding salt, Su Yu took a small half cup of vinegar and poured it into the pot with a "squeak" sound.

The rich sour taste, mixed with the spiciness of the fruit, rushed into the nose and shocked Su Yu!

Ah, this familiar smell is so tempting!

Quickly taking out the pot and scooping the steamed rice into a bowl, Su Yu took the vegetables and rice and sat down at the dining table with a smile on her face.

Let’s eat!

For lunch this day, Su Yu was extremely full.

Half a bowl of rice, a bowl of spicy and sour potato shreds, and a bowl of fried meat slices with fungus and red fruits were all eaten by Su Yu alone, not even a bit of soup was left!

Xia Na came back when Su Yu had just finished washing the dirty clothes from last night. He carried a thick piece of wood on his shoulder and put it down before entering the cave.

In the backpack on the back, in addition to the half tiger beast that was distributed today, there is also a complete tiger skin.

As soon as he walked into the cave, Xia Na smelled a faint fragrance, which was also mixed with the smell of knotweed that he didn't like very much.

But Shana said hello to Su Yu naturally as if he didn't notice anything, and then carried the tiger beast's meat into the food storage cave.

Coming out of the food storage cave again, Xia Na held the milk berries he brought back yesterday. When he saw Su Yu looking over, he smiled and said: "Xiao Yu'er, do you want to open it now and take a look? It just so happens that I have time tomorrow."

How could Su Yu not know what Xia Na was thinking? Open it as soon as possible and continue cooking it tomorrow if you can!

Su Yu happened to be curious about what this milk berry was, so naturally she would not refuse.

Su Yu asked Xia Na to get a clean wooden bucket from the kitchen, and then placed the milk berries across the bucket.

Choose a spot in the middle. Su Yu holds a fruit and vegetable knife and prepares to make a hole in the middle to let the slurry inside flow into the bucket.

The idea is good, but the reality is a bit of a slap in the face: Su Yu can’t cut it!

After trying several times, the skin of the milk berries still could not be completely cut. Su Yu thought bitterly that the fruit and vegetable knife must be too blunt!

Xia Na on the side saw that Su Yu had tried several times but failed to open the milk berries, so he kindly took the fruit and vegetable knife over.

Pressing on the mark that Su Yu had made, the knife in Xia Na's hand clicked three times, and a triangular opening came out.

Su Yu: ...

I don’t want to talk for the time being.

Xia Na pretended not to notice Su Yu’s depressed expression. He held a fruit and vegetable knife in one hand and the cut milk berry skin in the other. He pointed at the thick milky white liquid flowing out and looked at it expectantly. Su Yu.

"Xiao Yu'er, come and see if this thing is edible?"

"Haven't some orcs eaten it? It must be edible!" Su Yu said deliberately, but as he spoke, he still said He moved closer to get a closer look.

The slurry, which is thicker than yogurt, flows continuously into the bucket.

After staring for a long time, Su Yu finally stretched out her index finger, dug a little bit into the bucket, and put it into her mouth. After feeling it on the tip of her tongue for a while, Su Yu made the same move, scooping out a little bit and putting it into her mouth.

After two attempts, Su Yu's original depression had long since disappeared, and her eyes were replaced by faint joy.

"I'm not sure now, but I can give it a try and see if I can make something to eat!" Su Yu raised her eyes and looked at Xia Na with a smile.

The milk berries were very big, and the liquid continued to flow out. Su Yu asked Xia Na to watch from the side, while she quickly walked into the kitchen, took a large bowl, and scooped out more than half of the bowl of liquid. .

Back in the kitchen, Su Yu took out a red fruit, quickly cut it into thin strips, then grabbed it with salt for a while, washed it, squeezed out the water, and then put it into the milk berry slurry and stirred it.

Getting a piece of fat meat, Su Yu started to light a fire.

Heat the pot slightly, brush the inside of the pot with fat a few times, then take out a spoon, scoop a spoonful of the slurry into the pot.

The slurry slowly formed in the pot. Su Yu quickly turned it over with a spatula, grilled it for a while, and then took it out of the pot.

The same action was repeated countless times, and finally all the slurry in the bowl was used up. Another large bowl on the stove was already filled with a bowl of berry cake.

Yes, Su Yu named this thing berry cake.

Xiana, who was staring at the berries in the main cave, was already ready to move when he first smelled the fragrance.

Seeing Su Yu finally carrying things out of the kitchen, Xia Na's eyes seemed to be fixed on the wooden bowl and could no longer be moved away.

“Here, try it.” Su Yu handed the bowl to Xia Na and said with a smile, “But it’s the first time I’ve made it, so I’m not sure if it tastes good.”

When Su Yu handed over the bowl, Xia Na had already excitedly reached out and took two. How could he hear what Su Yu said next.

Besides, since Su Yu produces it, the taste must be guaranteed.

I ate a cake the size of Su Yu's face in two or two mouthfuls. When one hand was free, Xia Na quickly gave a thumbs up to Su Yu, and then just swallowed it, he nibbled on another one. Bread in hand.

Su Yu looked at Xia Na who had no room for words in a funny way, then picked up a piece of cake and ate it in small bites.

It is soft and delicious. The red fruit shreds in the cake are pickled with salt and are sweet, crisp and delicious, which adds a lot to the whole berry cake.

Because it was still some time before dinner, Su Yu only ate one and stopped eating. Shana, on the other hand, ate six in one go. If Su Yu hadn't stopped him, he probably could have continued!

One person and one animal have eaten well, and the milk berries on the barrel have stopped flowing out.

Su Yu asked Xia Na to cut the milk berries in half and pour all the remaining pulp into the bucket.

A milk berry took out a bucket full of pulp.

The milky white berries are rippling slightly in the barrel, making people feel happy just looking at them.

Su Yu asked Xia Na to bring the pulp to the kitchen first, and carefully closed the lid.

Xia Na looked at the remaining berry cakes in the bowl. Xia Na looked at Su Yu expectantly: "Xiao Yu'er, can I pick a few more tomorrow morning?"
