How to eat pineapple buns on the immigration ship

Chapter 197: White Porridge is Popular

When the students of Class 8 of Grade 1 were drinking their second bowl of white porridge, the workers who were working the early shift on the production escort ship also came to the cafeteria one after another.

The adults were surprised that these students came to the cafeteria to eat so early, but when they found that the bowls in the children's hands seemed to be filled with white liquid that they had never seen before, they immediately rushed to the cafeteria food window.

Fortunately, this pot was much larger than the first pot of porridge that Xiangchuan had just made, so there was still one third of porridge left after the second bowl of porridge was made by the students in Class 8 of Grade 1.

Even so, there were still many employees who were unable to get porridge, so they had to eat white rice from the window next to them.

However, some sharp-eyed employees noticed that the pots in the kitchen were placed on the heating plate, and all the robotic arms of the kitchen AI were constantly stirring something. The light screen on the food window showed a countdown, which was obviously the remaining time before the white turbid liquid could be served.

They rubbed their stomachs and said: Well, it’s not impossible to wait a little longer.

Not long ago, before Manager Wu had time to express his praise for a bowl of porridge, he saw that more than half of the porridge had been eaten by Class 8 of Grade 1. He did not bother to chat with the students around him, and hurriedly logged into the kitchen operation backend to ask the kitchen AI to replace 90% of today's breakfast with white porridge.

The reason why all of them were not replaced was that when the kitchen AI made the first pot of porridge in Xiangchuan, the first pot of rice was also ready. It was just that everyone in the kitchen was focusing on the porridge at that time and no one noticed it.

The agricultural bureau staff of the escort ship who failed to grab the white porridge gnashed their teeth at the lucky ones around them, expressing their envy and jealousy, and then hypnotized themselves with their plates: It’s okay, maybe this new food is not as delicious as white rice, maybe this new food is not as sweet as white rice...

If Kagawa could hear their voices, he would probably be amazed: Are there people who say the grapes are sour so soon? There is hope for the revival of social psychology research!

But at this moment, she was holding a camera with a light screen and taking pictures of her second bowl of white porridge, and didn't pay any attention to the diners at other tables.

After taking the photos that he would send to Xiangxue to show off later, Xiangchuan slowly began to drink his second bowl of porridge.

When it comes to drinking porridge, of course you can't drink it too hot. Look at the students around you. After getting the second bowl of porridge, they start to show off anxiously. As expected, their mouths are scalded by the boiling porridge.

Drinking boiling porridge is good when the weather is cold, but it is still autumn on the escort ship. Although it is cool in the morning, it is not to the extent that freshly boiled porridge is needed to warm the body.

The temperature of porridge water that Kagawa likes is around 50 to 60 degrees, which is suitable for drinking, just like the boiled water she usually drinks.

The porridge in front of her was too hot, so she naturally wouldn't rush to drink it. Xiangchuan picked up the spoon and stirred the porridge up and down while chatting with Ouyang Yating and Qiu Manman beside him.

Stir the porridge water appropriately to allow the boiling hot porridge water in the middle and lower layers to come into contact with the air and dissipate heat quickly, which will help to cool down quickly.

Of course, the most convenient method is to scoop up a spoonful and blow on it twice, but... Kagawa glanced at the second bowl of porridge.

When everyone in Class 8 of Grade 1 just rushed to get their second bowl of porridge, Kagawa, who was too lazy to queue up again, directly asked Ino to help him get the porridge - as members, they should be ordered around well, let alone those members who usually treat the leader of their own club with disrespect, who should be treated like slaves when they can be ordered around.

However, because of this, Kagawa, who was sitting at the dining table and reading the news at the time, did not notice how the students of Class 8 of Grade 1, who turned into gluttons after tasting the white porridge for the first time, asked the kitchen AI to get a big bowl to make the porridge.

When Ino handed over a "bowl" that was about the same size as the shabu-shabu she occasionally ate when she was a corporate slave, Kagawa's expression was full of speechlessness.

Although, considering the morning schedule and Kagawa's appetite which had become increasingly in sync with that of everyone else in the class in the past two months, it was not that she couldn't finish the porridge, but it was impossible to cool down such a big bowl by just blowing on it.

If he really did that, Kagawa would have to go find a doctor to treat his painful cheek after finishing his porridge!

But there are some warriors who try the ruthless iron mouth challenge.

When Chief Butler Wu squeezed to the table where the Tongue Tip Society's relatives and friends were sitting with his mouth swollen like a sausage, Kagawa couldn't help but ask Chief Butler Wu if he needed burn medicine.

How could a bowl of porridge make your mouth so messy?! Confusion was written all over Kagawa's little face.

"Oh, I just wanted to come here to ask something." Butler Wu took the cold compress brought by the kitchen AI and rubbed it gently on his mouth with some embarrassment.

After all, today the students from the Agricultural University High School will be transferred to the vegetable crop department.

Ever since the scene of Kagawa directing Class 8 of Grade 1 to cook vegetables during the field training in the freshman year was broadcast live, the vegetable crop departments of the various escort ship production departments have almost broken down the door of the Agriculture Bureau.

If I don't come quickly, those guys will rush over to grab people as soon as breakfast is over! Wu Zongguan felt bitter in his heart. Well, he didn't expect the porridge to be so hot.

But it’s really delicious.

"Kagawa-san, can you tell me more about the difference between this porridge and the rice we had yesterday? Why didn't you just use the stir-fried vegetables we prepared in the kitchen when you made the porridge today?"

Chief Wu screened the questions in his mind and finally asked the question that interested him the most.

The reason for this question was that when he was drinking porridge and eating side dishes just now, he found that the taste of the side dishes of the white porridge was indeed obviously different from that of the side dishes of white rice.

The stir-fried vegetable soup that came with yesterday's white rice had a richer flavor, while the side dishes for the white porridge seemed saltier, sourer, and spicier.

Is there any connection between the difference in taste of this side dish and the two ways of cooking rice?

"Because porridge is more suitable as a side dish with heavier flavors than rice."

Kagawa put down the spoon in his hand and summed it up in one sentence.

Last night, after she decided to make white porridge, she struggled for a while about the side dishes.

I've been asked this question a lot recently by students in Class 8 of Grade 1 and my parents at home. When Kagawa looks up recipes, he will also search on Wikipedia or Baidu.

The reason why there is a difference in taste between side dishes and porridge dishes is that the texture and taste of white porridge and white rice are different.

White rice has a solid texture and direct rice aroma. It is more suitable to be paired with some relatively mild side dishes that can bring out the rice itself.

White porridge has a soft and smooth texture and rich rice aroma, so it needs a more flavorful side dish to balance it out. For example, when Kagawa was short of money at the end of the month, he often used the must-have pickled mustard tuber as an emergency measure.

The sour, spicy, and salty flavors of the side dishes can stimulate the taste buds, making the rice aroma of the porridge more prominent and increasing appetite. Just like the sour and spicy crispy cucumbers and spicy pickled radish shreds that everyone in Class 8 of Senior 1 has not finished eating, their sour and spicy flavors echo the rice aroma of the porridge. After taking a small bite, people can't help but drink a big mouthful of porridge.

He can simply be called a porridge thief.

Theoretical explanations were an area Kagawa was not good at, so she simply paraphrased the principles.

The students from Class 8 of Grade 1 and Manager Wu were all digesting the new knowledge slowly with confused expressions on their faces.

It's not that their brains can't figure it out. Modern people's brains are more flexible and intelligent than those in the 21st century. The usually lively and gluttonous students in Class 8 of Grade 1 can even recite advanced math problems in math class, and Kagawa feels like he is reading a book written in a foreign language.

This is because the development of rice as an edible food only started yesterday, and the agricultural bureaus of all fleets only have the impression of rice in its final powdered form. Under this premise, how can they know the differences between rice and porridge?

Kagawa looked at the modern teenagers around him who were gradually digesting the daily dietary common sense that was commonplace for people in the 21st century, smiled slightly, and continued to drink his porridge.

Yesterday she was using Geegle to check the history of porridge.

In ancient times, the birth of porridge was actually accidental. At that time, people lived by gathering and hunting, and the food source was unstable.

Once, when people were cooking food, they accidentally dropped some grains into the water. After a long period of heating, the grains turned into a paste. This was the earliest porridge.

Later, with the development of agriculture, cereals gradually became the main source of food, and porridge was widely accepted by people because of its easy digestion and ability to quickly provide energy.

In the 21st century, white porridge continues to shine in modern Asian food culture as a simple, delicious and easily digestible staple food.

Of course, Kagawa didn't plan to talk about these things now. Anyway, after he returned, the uncles and aunts from the Agricultural Bureau would come to his house for various reasons to "eat for free". At that time, he would definitely grab the strong men from the Tongue Society to help organize some archival materials about rice and hand them in.

If the Tongue Tip Society knows these three, it means that the whole class of Class 18 of Senior High School knows about it. How efficient.
