Chapter 354 Pork Slices and Pistachios
After arranging everything, Su Nuannuan went to Yu Weiwei's house again.

Since getting married, the couple has been living a blissful life together, and their complexions have become much rosier.

They were all very happy to see Su Nuannuan arrive.

Su Nuannuan put down the gifts in her hands and said to Su Sanquan and Yu Weiwei.

"Third Brother, Weiwei, Mingzhou and I are going on a three-month business trip to the Southern Province tomorrow, and we probably won't be able to come back for the Spring Festival this year. Things have been a bit unsettled in the county these past few days, so you and Weiwei need to take good care of Mom and Dad."

Upon hearing this, Su Sanquan immediately made a promise.

"Nuan Nuan, you and your brother-in-law can go without worry. Weiwei and I are here at home."

Yu Weiwei nodded charmingly.

Although the two live in the city, they go back to Hongqi Village every week, even more often than Su Nuannuan.

Su Nuannuan trusted the two of them completely.

After explaining everything, Su Nuannuan went home.

Tomorrow, the two of them will be leaving for the Southern Province, so they need to pack some of their visible belongings today.

The climate in the southern province is more humid and warmer than in the black province; it's still very hot there at this time of year.

Therefore, Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou did not bring any warm clothes. They only packed two sets of light clothes to change into.

Besides that, there's food.

The journey from Heilongjiang Province to Nan Province takes six days and six nights by train, so it's essential to have a full supply of food that can be stored for a long time.

Su Nuannuan brought Chu Mingzhou into the space and prepared food with her.

Although there is space to keep food fresh, it's understandable to take out some fresh food to eat at the beginning when there are many people on the train.

However, if I continue to eat like this, it will definitely arouse suspicion.

Moreover, Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou were accompanied by quite a few people on this train journey.

Chu Mingzhou surveyed the space and then asked Su Nuannuan a question.

"Nuan Nuan, what are we going to do?"

For a while, Su Nuannuan had no clue.

Suddenly, her gaze was drawn to a pile of pork on a shelf in the corner.

This pork was from her previous life; she had used up quite a bit of it when she ate it before.

Su Nuannuan checked and found that there were about a thousand catties left.

Upon seeing pork, Su Nuannuan thought of a type of food: pork jerky.

In layman's terms, it's baked meat slices.

Just thinking about the taste of pork jerky made Su Nuannuan swallow hard.

She tugged at Chu Mingzhou's sleeve and said.

“Mingzhou, let’s use this pork to make some pork floss… slices.”

At that time, the concept of pork jerky did not exist, so Su Nuannuan used a different term.

Chu Mingzhou looked at the bloody pork on the shelf with some confusion, wondering how this pile of pork could be made into pork slices.
Although he was somewhat confused, Chu Mingzhou did not voice his concerns.

He nodded, directly affirming Su Nuannuan's idea.

"Okay, I'll do whatever Nuannuan says."

After receiving Chu Mingzhou's approval, Su Nuannuan began to direct Chu Mingzhou's actions.

Chu Mingzhou spent many years conducting experiments in the laboratory, making him quite skilled at manual labor. Su Nuannuan's explanation was also very clear, which made Chu Mingzhou even more adept at it.

Making pork jerky is very simple. First, mince the pork with a 1:9 ratio of lean to fat. Then, add a little starch to the minced meat to increase its binding properties.

After mixing, add light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, salt, MSG, and other seasonings to flavor the mixture.

Finally, roll them out into a large sheet of meat using a rolling pin, then cut them into appropriate sizes with a knife. Brush the surface with oil and bake in the oven.

Because of the oven, the cooking process is very fast.

The oven was a gift from the landlord when Su Nuannuan bought the apartment in Beijing. After renting out the apartment, Su Nuannuan moved the large pieces of furniture into her spatial storage. Fortunately, she had the foresight to do so.

Otherwise, making pork jerky this time will require a lot of effort.

The oven was very fast, and Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou made another batch, as the ones they had just made were already cooked.

The aroma of roasted meat filled the entire space, and Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou both subconsciously swallowed.

When Su Nuannuan was making it, she made sure to slice the pork very thinly.

Therefore, the finished product is somewhat browned. However, pork slices roasted like this are really delicious.

After Chu Mingzhou took the baking tray out of the oven, Su Nuannuan tasted a piece and couldn't stop eating it.

In the end, Su Nuannuan restrained herself and put the rest into a glass jar and sealed it.

Chu Mingzhou also really likes pork slices.

After tasting it, he made many more without Su Nuannuan's prompting.

Seeing that Chu Mingzhou could already cook on his own, Su Nuannuan wandered around the space, looking at the food that was easy to preserve.

Su Nuannuan couldn't bear to see her stomach suffer.

After inspecting the edible fruit trees grown in the space, Su Nuannuan actually found some food that was easy to preserve.

That's a nut!
However, since the nuts were all growing well on the tree, Su Nuannuan needed to pick them all, roast them, and then take them out to eat.

Su Nuannuan's favorite nut is pistachios.

Coincidentally, there were two mature pistachio trees in the space. These were seeds that Su Nuannuan had specially found and planted.

This happened three years ago.

Su Nuannuan had almost forgotten about this tree. She remembered it today, and realized she could roast some pistachios.

Su Nuannuan found two large baskets and used her mental power to control them, picking many fruits.

The key to making pistachios is to bring out their aroma through low-temperature roasting.

Su Nuannuan planned to soak the pistachios in salt water first, and then bake them at a low temperature. This method is called salt baking, and the resulting pistachios not only have a unique pistachio aroma, but also a salty taste, making them perfect for pairing with alcohol.

Without further ado, Su Nuannuan took a large wooden basin, put all the washed pistachios into the basin, and then added water and salt.

Besides salt-baked, Su Nuannuan also plans to dry-roast some pistachios.

When Su Nuannuan brought the pistachios over, she saw that Chu Mingzhou already had five large glass jars filled with pork slices in front of him.

Seeing that Chu Mingzhou was still going to make it, Su Nuannuan quickly stopped him and said.

"Okay, that's enough to eat."

Then, Su Nuannuan revealed the basket containing pistachios and spoke to Chu Mingzhou.

"Mingzhou, could you roast these nuts for me? I'll take them with me on the road."

Chu Mingzhou had seen this fruit in a book and heard that Westerners loved to eat it.

Seeing Su Nuannuan's longing expression, Chu Mingzhou knew these nuts were delicious. He also felt a sense of anticipation.

Chu Mingzhou took the basket from Su Nuannuan and said.

"Nuan Nuan, just let me do whatever you want to do."

Su Nuannuan smiled and said.

"Row."

Su Nuannuan then looked around the space again, found some fruits that could be stored for a long time, and brought them over.

When she arrived, Su Nuannuan smelled the familiar aroma of pistachios.

Since they were fresh out of the pot, the temperature made the pistachios even more enticing in aroma.

Su Nuannuan put down the fruit and ran over in a few steps.
