66. Chapter 66 Making jerky


Food is hard to keep during the hot season, but it is in short supply during the cold and rainy seasons.

Su Yu looked at the endless food in the hot season, and somehow always wanted to prepare for the cold season in advance and store more food.

Although bird fruits and milk berries are good, eating only staple food without meat is probably not enough for orcs.

Of course, she has space, so she can stock up on food in the space, and she is already doing it.

But there was nothing she could do to store food for the entire tribe of orcs.

So, she still had to think of some way to allow other orcs in the tribe to store more food, especially meat.

Dried meat is one of the methods she thought of.

Hearing that Su Yu planned to dry the meat, Xia Na hesitated for a while and finally spoke.

"Xiao Yu'er, there were orcs before who hung up the uneaten raw animal meat and planned to dry it, but it was all broken, so..."

Xia Na's words He didn't finish speaking, but Su Yu already knew what he wanted to say.

"That's because the method used by the orc is wrong!" Su Yu said with a smile.

As a citizen of Blue Star’s country who is best at eating, Su Yu thinks that she has some knowledge about eating.

Not to mention daily meals such as stir-fries, stews and mixed vegetables, she can also make cured meats such as bacon, sausages, braised pork, and jerky.

Although in the world of beasts, many seasonings are insufficient, sometimes, the original flavor may be a kind of delicacy.

Seeing that Xia Na was still somewhat orderly, Su Yu said with a smile: "Okay, hurry up and prepare for dinner. We will know everything after we try it tomorrow!"

Xia Na thought After thinking about it, that's right.

It’s just some raw animal meat anyway.

It’s the hot season now, so it’s a pity that it spoils if you can’t finish it. Why not let Xiaoyuer try it, maybe it will succeed?

If it is really successful, perhaps the tribe will have more food in the cold season.

After they both thought about it, they stopped talking and began to seriously prepare for dinner.

The stewed meat, slightly spicy fried pork slices, and enough fruit rice made both of them satisfied.

While Xia Na was cleaning up the dishes, Su Yu took the time to feed the cubs in the pen.

After a few days, the six cubs of the flat-mouthed beasts have completely adapted to the comfortable life of "opening their mouths when food comes" after being kept in captivity.

Every day at midnight, he would open his mouth and wait for food. Every once in a while at night, he would raise his neck and scream, which made Su Yu very happy.

The two flat-mouthed beasts that Shana captured before had been eaten two days ago, but their fur was kept by Su Yu and dried.

Su Yu has been too busy recently and has accumulated several planned things in her hands, but she has never had time to do them.

After the herbs were dried, Su Yu planned to try to make something, but later, due to the discovery of black fruits, bird fruits and other foods, it has been postponed until now.

In addition, the dustpan for drying bird fruits, the shelf for the food storage hole, and the hair of the flat-billed animal still need to be dealt with...

"Oh, why is there not enough time?" Su Yu glanced at the sky, which was almost darkening, and sighed helplessly.

Back in the cave, Xia Na was already heating hot water for Su Yu in the pot.

Seeing Su Yu come back, Xia Na said hello, and then ran out to take a bath in the river before it was completely dark.

Xia Na came back quickly.

Su Yu just got the hot water into the bucket when Xia Na came in from outside the cave.

Walking into the kitchen silently, Xia Na held a wooden bucket in one hand and poured hot water directly into Su Yu's bathtub.

Su Yu came out after taking a shower, and Xia Na was still lying on the bed.

When he saw someone coming out and lying on the bed again, he said good night, turned over and fell asleep.

In the past few days, Su Yu’s points have reached 242 because she shared the new food bird fruit and taught everyone how to cook fruit rice and fruit porridge. As for the experience value, it is already over half, reaching 820.

Since there was no new income today, Su Yu was too lazy to wander into the space. After turning off the lamp, she went to sleep.

On the second day, after breakfast, Xia Na went out alone after sending Su Yu to the witch doctor's cave.

He had to take advantage of Su Yu's study time to prepare enough knotted trees and some wood.

If he still had time, he would go to the river to get more herbs, because the little fish said that those things have other uses.

Xia Na, who has a clear goal, does things faster.

It was only a little more than halfway through the first half of the day when he returned to the cave carrying a large bundle of clean knotted trees, a waist-thick piece of wood, and a small half bag of knotted nuts.

Seeing that there was still enough time, Xia Na ran to the river again and carried two buckets full of vanilla.

When Su Yu came back, there was a large bundle of knotty trees on the ground behind and below the cave, as well as a thick piece of wood (thick for Su Yu).

Climb up to the cave entrance. Outside the cave entrance, there are two buckets full of wet herbs.

When you walk into the cave, you can see the busy figures in the kitchen at a glance.

Su Yu walked into the kitchen, brought a basin of clean water from a wooden basin, and took a clean wooden board left over from before. Then she sat at the entrance of the cave and started to process the newly brought herbs.

After cleaning half of the bucket, Shana greeted her for lunch.

The sky is big and the earth is big, and eating is the biggest thing.

Su Yu immediately put down her work and turned around to devote herself to the food business.

After lunch, Su Yu did not continue to deal with the herbs, but asked Xia Na to move all the bacon out of the food storage cave.

Before breakfast, Su Yu had washed and cut the meat, then marinated it with spinach and wild onions.

Considering that it had been marinated with salt before, Su Yu did not add any salt this time.

Put the meat strips into the pot, boil them in water until they are six times cooked, then remove them and drain them.

Then take advantage of the charcoal fire in the stove, set up the grate, place the meat strips on the grate one by one, and bake them full of charcoal fire.

Barbecuing strips is a time-consuming task. Seeing that the sunshine outside the cave was just right, Su Yu finally picked up some and placed them outside the cave to be dried in the sun.

While Su Yu was processing the dried meat, Xia Na had already prepared a lot of bamboo strips for Su Yu.

Then, when Su Yu freed up her hands to weave a dustpan, Xia Na went into the food storage cave again, preparing to build a shelf.

Su Yu had already discussed how to set up the airs with Xia Na early in the morning, so she didn't need to be present.

Su Yu was sitting at the door of the kitchen, making a dustpan and staring at the strips of meat on the charcoal fire.

When the charcoal fire was completely extinguished, Shana's shelves were all set up.

Su Yu also used up all the bamboo strips prepared by Xia Na and completed ten dustpans early.

Putting the meat strips on the grate into the dustpan one by one, Su Yu moved them outside the cave entrance to dry.

Su Yu moved all the meat strips to the dustpan. Four dustpans were full of meat strips, and they were placed outside the cave entrance one by one.

At night, move them to the shelf in the food storage hole.

After finishing what they were doing, one person and one beast took priority in dealing with the remaining knotty trees.

Then, they packed up the remaining bucket and a half of vanilla together.

I can’t do it anymore, I’m hiding in the quilt writing words, my eyelids are so heavy, good night, my dears.

It’s the end of the month, dear friends, if you still have monthly tickets and recommended tickets, please use them to hit Qiongtu
