Chapter 1185
Xiao Se is very busy today, busy making wine songs.

She had already prepared all the materials needed yesterday.

Just waiting to do it today.

She took Ocha and Oye and ground the rice into powder.

Rice noodles are born.

To make distiller's yeast, you need Polygonum spp. leaves, verbena, and perilla leaves.

The ingredients vary from place to place, and some places only use Polygonum leaves.

Chop the three herbs into fine pieces and knead them together with the rice flour, like kneading dough.

After kneading, shape into small balls.

Place thatch in a bamboo strip basin, lay the prepared pellets flat on top, and then cover with a layer of thatch.

In this weather, just leave it for thirty hours. If the weather is colder, leave it for 48 hours.

Thirty hours later, the thatch covering it was removed, and all the small balls spread inside had a layer of white hair.

This is the fermentation of the small meatballs, and this is the desired effect.

Carefully take out the pellets and put them in the sun to dry. [An important step is to sprinkle the small meatballs with mother song powder. There is no mother song here in Xiao Se, so just dry them. 】.

After drying in the sun for two days, this is the koji.

But at this time, the distiller’s yeast was not added with mother yeast, so the wine produced was bitter.

There is no mother song in Xiao Se, so these made jiuqu balls are used to make the mother song.

Crush the prepared koji balls, mix them into the rice noodles, and repeat the steps again.

After four or five times of brewing, the koji is almost pure, and when used to make wine again, it will not be so bitter.

There is another method that is the simplest and most commonly used in rural areas.

The koji made this year can be used next year. The longer it is left, the better it will ferment.

Many aunties will keep such jiuqu balls as mother koji for the next time they make koji.

When I take out the aged koji, it has the aroma of wine, which is very fragrant. Because the wine is also made of rice, it has that aroma.

Xiao Se looked at the prepared rice balls and put them in the sun to dry: "Don't worry, wait."

Aye sighed: "It's really delicious food, but it takes time."

In the past, when they ate barbecue, they just grilled it and ate it after it was grilled.

Since Arthur arrived, braised pork, winter melon soup, etc. all take time to cook.

I really didn't expect that the food in my mouth would be so exquisite.

In the past, I would have been unwilling to be so delicate when I was not full, but now, I am willing.

Xiao Se smiled and agreed: "Isn't that right? These good things were all discovered by our ancestors little by little."

Think about it, from the time when no one recognizes a kind of weed that grows on the ground, to the time it is cured and made into food, how can words be used to express the countless hardships in between.

The ancestors worked really hard to change their lives in a better direction and leave a better path for their descendants.

She just taught one billionth of what she learned from her ancestors to the tribesmen in need.

Ah Cha swallowed her saliva: "Will it taste the same as tree wine?"

"No." Xiao Se shook his head, "It's a little spicier than tree wine. It tastes like dogwood, spicy."

Ah Cha shrank her neck and asked, "Would it taste good?" She couldn't imagine the taste.

"So let's make a little bit and try it." Xiao Se just wanted to try it. She used to help her grandma make jiuqu, so now she wants to try it herself.

After the rice is harvested in the countryside, they will make grain wine. The fragrance is so fragrant that it makes people stop in their tracks when passing by their homes.The grandfather of her elementary school classmate liked to make his own grain wine, and she once visited her classmate's house to see it.

She still remembered the time when she and her classmates entered the room where the wine was steamed, smelling the sweet smell, and she walked out feeling dizzy.

That was the first time she got drunk. She really got drunk from the smell, and was laughed at by her classmates for more than ten years.

Later, she accidentally learned that her classmate was drunk on rice wine, and she laughed at her for several years.

Xiao Se stood up and looked at the rising sun: "Well, there's still time, let's try some pine needle sprite water."

Ah Cha felt something different when he heard the name: "Pine needle sprite water, is it delicious?"

"Yes." Xiao Se said, "Yesterday I went to the pine forest with Ye Feng. When I came back, I suddenly thought of this and came back with pine needles."

"I only know how to do it, but I haven't tried it and I don't know if it will work?"

What Ah Cha and Ah Ye said to Xiao Se were using their nine heads to guarantee that she could do it: "It will definitely work."

Xiao Se looked at their faces that believed in him and said with a smile: "So let's try it together."

Ah Cha and Ah Ye were very happy, they had fresh food again.

In the past, new things were not allowed in the tribe for fear of causing trouble.

Since Arthur came, I wish there was something new every day.

Pine needles are very oily, and there will be a lot of dirt on them. If they are not cleaned well, the water produced may cause death instead of diarrhea after drinking.

Soak the pine needles in warm water first. There is no need to use a brush, otherwise it will destroy its nutrients.

Pine needles can also ferment themselves. If you damage the surface, the effect may not be achieved.

After soaking for one hour, soak in 5% salt water for three hours to remove some of the bitterness of the pine needles and also remove impurities.

Finally, soak in clean water for two hours and rinse.

Put the cleaned pine needles into a clay pot and add cold boiled water. Do not use boiled water. Drinking boiled water will cause diarrhea.

If there is no sugar, use honey instead. This honey is really versatile.

If there is sugar cane, Xiao Se will jump up happily and start refining sugar.

It is said that sugarcane was introduced to China during the Zhou Dynasty. 【Body poison is Tianzhu】

However, the word '昘' has long existed in the Chinese language family, and later the word '昘' was derived from 'sugar'.

Moreover, sugarcane does not have the word 'Hu' or 'Fan'.

Moreover, the temperatures in Shendu and Huaxia are so similar, it is impossible for such a large area of ​​land to have sugar cane only in Shendu, but not in Huaxia.

Moreover, the derivation of Chinese handwriting is first formed, and then the characters, and the evolution of the characters is based on its own birth.

Whether sugar cane is native to China is a controversial topic, but Xiao Se believes that sugar cane is native to China.

Xiao Se thought that if sugar cane could be discovered, their food kingdom would reach its peak again.

Pour the honey into a clay pot, seal it, wait until it ferments, and take it out after two days.

Honey cannot be mixed with many things to eat, but pine needles can. Pine needles are mild and non-toxic.

Ah Ye and Ah Cha stared at the clay pot put aside: "Is this good?"

"We'll reveal it in two days." Xiao Se giggled twice. She had never tried it before and didn't know how it tasted.

Ah Cha and Ah Ye looked at each other and could only wait for two days.

I used to think two days was so short, but now I think two days is so long. Why is it so long?

Unhappy.
