God of Cooking, grilling skewers attracted the fairy beasts

Chapter 574 Return and Process the Ingredients

As night falls, the people on the beach are still in high spirits.

Eating, drinking, talking and laughing, it was such a lively occasion.

"Brother Li Heng, are they not ready yet? The flowers I was waiting for have all wilted!"

Xiao Chi leaned lazily on Li Heng's arm. Even though his stomach was already full, he was still thinking about the roasted coconut that he hadn't eaten yet.

"Don't tell me you haven't eaten yet?"

Li Heng saw that Xiao Chi had difficulty bending over, so he didn't believe that she could still fill her stomach.

"Hiccup~~"

Xiao Chi burped, regained some energy, and then continued.

"Hey, I'm full, but I can still eat another coconut."

"Okay, then you eat it!"

Li Heng cut open a burnt coconut and placed it in front of Xiao Chi.

The rich aroma immediately gushed out and successfully aroused Xiao Chi's appetite.

Lu Xiaoxiao and Li Heng did not lag behind either. The three of them scooped a spoonful of steaming coconut milk to taste it first.

The heated coconut milk has a sweeter taste and a somewhat strange texture. Li Heng still prefers to drink the "original flavor".

Li Heng, who had just satisfied half of his curiosity, began to taste the coconut meat.

The roasted coconut meat becomes much softer and tastes a bit like jelly, and the milky flavor is stronger than when it is eaten raw.

For Li Heng, who has tried all kinds of delicious food, the taste is only acceptable.

The two little ones were really not picky at all. Not only did they finish their own portions, they also finished the ones that Li Heng hadn't finished.

When the disciples who were nearby saw this, out of curiosity they also followed the two little ones and started roasting coconuts to eat.

After eating it, he found it tasted good and recommended it to the disciples around him.

As a result, this delicacy, which was created by Xiao Chi on a whim, gradually became popular among the disciples and spread more and more widely.

After finishing this innovative dinner, everyone was no longer in a hurry to go back, but sat in a big circle around the campfire.

What started out as just a casual chat eventually developed into a bonfire party.

Those with talents went to the middle to show their talents, and those without them could only applaud and cheer at the side.

After playing like this for more than an hour, everyone reluctantly returned to their residence.

......

Day two.

Li Heng was in a very good mood, simply because of yesterday's bumper harvest.

After a quick breakfast, Li Heng couldn't wait to start sorting out the harvest from yesterday afternoon.

Some things cannot be used directly for cooking, such as kelp and bird's nest, which need to be processed first to remove impurities before being cooked into delicious food.

Li Heng felt that he probably wouldn't have time to go out and have fun in the next few days.

In addition to simply processing the ingredients brought back from the ocean, he also planned to make some things that he remembered in his mind.

For example, as mentioned before: sand crab juice, coconut oil, oyster sauce, etc.

But things have to be done one by one, and now he plans to deal with the kelp first.

Generally speaking, after being brought ashore, the kelp will be dried and dried, or made into salted kelp.

Both of these processing methods are aimed at extending the shelf life of kelp.

Making dried kelp is relatively simple, which is to use the sun to remove moisture from the kelp.

The disadvantage of this method is that it depends on the weather, because it cannot be used if it rains.

Although the preparation of salted kelp is relatively complicated, it does not depend on the weather.

A total of four steps are required to get the final product.

They include: boiling, cooling, pickling, dehydrating and more.

The "boiling" here cannot be done with ordinary water, but sea water.

For Li Heng who has the storage ring, all of the above are not a problem at all and can be skipped completely.

The only thing he had to do was to clean the impurities attached to the surface of the kelp to make it easier to cook and eat.

While having breakfast, Li Heng greeted several apprentices and asked them to stay and help.

Now is the time to use them. Li Heng took out several large water jars from his ring in one breath, and also took out some freshly picked kelp to share with everyone.

Although the backyard space here is not as spacious as Xiaochufeng, it is sufficient for Li Heng and his friends' daily use, and is more than enough to accommodate a few water tanks.

The water tanks were lined up in a row, with an apprentice standing next to each tank. Li Heng stood opposite them, demonstrating the subsequent steps to everyone.

“First, put the kelp into the water tank, and then fill the tank with clean water.”

"Attention! The water surface must cover all the kelp. This process will take about a quarter of an hour..."

The step that Li Heng is doing is called pretreatment, which aims to soften the kelp and help remove dirt or other impurities on its surface.

In order to speed up the softening process, Li Heng used warm water.

In fact, using boiling water would be faster, but that would also destroy the nutrients in the kelp, which is not worth the loss.

Several apprentices and Li Heng were busy, but the two little ones could only watch from the side.

Because even if they stand on tiptoe, they are not as tall as the water tank, so it is not very convenient to operate, and they might fall into the tank if they are not careful.

So Li Heng didn't arrange any work for them.

"Brother Li Heng, why don't you arrange some work for me and the young lady?"

Xiao Chi is very idle and wants to find something to do. Lu Xiaoxiao is in almost the same situation.

The board game that Li Heng made for the two of them before was too much to play every day and they eventually got bored of it.

"This job is really not suitable for you two, how about I change you to something else?"

Li Heng knew that with the temperament of the two little ones, it would be impossible to get them to sit still for a while.

Sure enough, after just a few minutes, the two of them couldn't stand the loneliness anymore.

"Yes, yes! Anything is fine."

The two little ones clapped their hands in approval. Either they should be given snacks so that their mouths would not be idle, or they should be given work to do so that their hands would not be idle.

Li Heng didn't have time to make snacks now, so he decisively chose the latter.

"Here! I'll leave these little things to you. Just help me clean them up."

"What is this? Is it edible?"

The two kids took the bird's nest from Li Heng's hand, examined it curiously, and asked Li Heng.

Yesterday afternoon, when the three of them were exploring the island, Li Heng put the bird's nest into his ring as soon as he got it. It was normal that the two little ones couldn't recognize it.

"This is bird's nest, so it's edible."

While soaking kelp, Li Heng took the opportunity to teach the two little ones how to process bird's nest.

"Eat? Bird's nest?"

"Is it delicious?"

Several apprentices also came over to Li Heng and the other two out of curiosity.

They can understand the meaning of bird's nest, but they cannot associate it with eating.

"This thing is a very precious tonic in my hometown, and I have never eaten it!"

Li Heng shook his head and said truthfully that in his previous life he had only heard of the name of "bird's nest".
