Chapter 201 Making Jelly
At this time, Hua Murong said, "I think it should be feasible. However, the spring in Shacheng is a little colder than that in Guyang County. Planting the jelly grass can be done a month later. It shouldn't have any impact, right?"
Yan Yiyi shook her head and could not guarantee: "The seeds of jelly grass are few and small, and the probability of germination is very small. This place is so far away from Sand City, and I have never tried to plant jelly grass by cuttings. I can't give you an answer for the time being."
Hua Murong: "It doesn't matter. When the time comes, let's see how many seeds there are here. We will cultivate the seeds and then slowly expand the planting, just like you planted sweet potatoes."
Yan Yiyi was speechless for a moment. Anyway, it was not her job to manage, so they could do whatever they wanted.
"You can try." She really didn't know much more. It seemed that she would have to study the book carefully with A Ye again tonight.
After collecting the agar-agar grass, the group returned home with a full load.
Yes, no one's backpack was empty. In order to free up the baskets for medicinal herbs and jelly grass, several secret guards filled their backpacks with pheasants and rabbits.
After returning home, Xin Ye began to direct everyone. The medicinal herbs were taken to the pharmacy, and Yan Yiyi helped to dry them under his guidance. Xin Ye did not need to tell anyone about the wild vegetables, as someone had already started to sort and clean them. The living pheasants and rabbits were temporarily kept in captivity, and the dead and injured ones were all slaughtered.
After asking Xin Ye, the three brothers of the Hua family began to wash the grapes. Hua Bei and others also joined in to help, after all, there were several baskets!
The rest of the people, apart from those responsible for washing the jelly grass, were the secret guards who were on duty to cook for everyone today. Everyone had something to do, and we achieved the goal of no one having to eat for free.
After a simple lunch, they couldn't start making wine for the time being. Although there were no pesticides here, Yan Yiyi still decided to follow the online tutorial he found on the 2nd and soak it in salt water for an hour, then dry it.
During the drying period, making jelly is the most important thing at the moment.
The secret guards brought by Hua Muxin and Hua Muyu didn't quite understand why they had to go to the trouble of doing all these things themselves. Especially the secret guards directly under the eldest young master, each of them was in high spirits and they really didn't understand why they were so happy.
But since their masters followed suit, they naturally dared not not do so.
Everyone holds a plate of grass jelly in their hands, and everyone rubs the grass jelly by hand, and everyone's mood is different.
Yan Yiyi and Xin Ye belong to the experiential research school that puts the prescriptions on paper into practice.
Hua Murong is a knowledge-seeking and experience-seeking person who wants to satisfy her curiosity, learn new knowledge, and try everything.
Hua Muxin follows the trend out of herd mentality and a little curiosity.
Hua Muyu is a curious baby who wants to try and play with everything. She is a naive experimenter.
Hua Murong's secret guards are the type who are used to taking things for granted and rarely enjoy life.
Hua Muxin and Hua Muyu's secret guards just followed the herd mentality at first, but as they rubbed, they inexplicably felt a little bit high and experienced a vague sense of relief.
Hey, I seem to understand why the young master's secret guards accepted it so calmly and enjoyed it.
After rubbing the jelly grass, filter out the residue with a filter mesh, then put it into a pot and cook it, stirring while cooking, then add starch and stir, when it is almost done, pour it out and let it cool, then wait for it to solidify naturally.
Afterwards, Xinye boiled another large pot of brown sugar water, and after it cooled down, he put it into the prepared artificial ice and refrigerated it.
As for making ice, no one is interested because this method has been popularized ten years ago.
Xin Ye looked at the green jelly in large and small pots at home, discussed with Yan Yiyi, and moved two pots onto the ox cart to deliver to Father Li.
As for the sweet soup, they cook it in Li Ji’s backyard. The key point is that they don’t sell the sweet soup directly, but sell jelly. Customers can take the jelly home and cook the sweet soup themselves.
Hua Muchin was very curious about Li’s Grocery Store, so she followed Xin Ye. Hua Muyu hesitated for a few seconds between going with them to watch the fun and staying at home to eat jelly, and made a decisive choice - to go with them!
Because he heard his sister and brother-in-law discussing making samples for the guests to taste first, so he could still eat jelly when he went to Li Ji Grocery Store, hehe!
Yan Yiyi did not follow them. It was such a hot day and she was too lazy to go out.
I used the excuse of going back for lunch break to look for relevant information on the cultivation and production of agar-agar grass, and then I discovered that it can actually be dried and then boiled to get juice, but the problem is that edible alkali needs to be added.
Where could she get baking soda here?
I need to wait for A Ye to come back before asking this question, or I can ask my eldest brother who has broad knowledge and my second brother who has business all over the country in the evening.
I wonder if the general's wife has any way to get edible baking soda. If she does, there's no need for her to waste her time thinking about it.
At this time, Xin Ye and the other two came to Li's grocery store. There happened to be a regular customer in the store. An old man from the neighborhood was playing chess and chatting with Li's father in the store. Li's father came out to look after the store so he had company and was not bored at all.
"Dad." Xin Ye was holding a wooden basin, followed by the two brothers of the Hua family who were carrying a larger wooden basin.
Father Li raised his head when he heard the voice: "You, why are you here?"
"Hey~ What new food did Aye bring?" The uncle standing by and watching the chess game was the first to notice what Xinye was holding, "What is this green thing?"
Hearing this, the others stopped playing chess and stood up to watch. Xin Ye glanced at the two people behind him and said, "Everyone, please make way for us. There are more pieces behind us. I will introduce them to you uncles after we have put them away."
Upon hearing this, several people immediately made way for him. Xin Ye put the things on an empty table and cleared out an empty counter for them to put their things on. These things would be sold soon, so there was no need to put them in the inner courtyard.
"This is jelly..." Xin Ye began to introduce the benefits and methods of making jelly. He was worried that they would be repulsed by the green, soft, and unappetizing jelly, so he explained that it was made from fresh leaves picked from the mountains today.
The leaves are green, so the food cooked in it will naturally be green as well.
"This is a dessert. I will cook some sweet soup for you uncles later. You can have a taste."
Since they were all old customers, they naturally knew that his “try it” was a free tasting, so they didn’t hesitate to be polite with him. If the taste was really good, they would be happy to buy some to take home for their families to try.
The food from Li Ji Grocery Store has never disappointed them.
After a while, everyone had a bowl of jelly in their hands. Hua Muyu was the first to taste it. Although Xin Ye was responsible for distributing the jelly to everyone, he was the second to taste it.
The third person to taste it was Uncle Li. He was just studying the jelly and was not as fast as the two young men.
Hua Muchin wanted to wait until Hua Muyu had tasted it and confirmed that he liked it before trying it. If it didn’t taste good, he would try a little bit to see how it tasted.
Hua Muyu did not disappoint him. Seeing him eating with big mouthfuls and shaking his head, Hua Muxin took a big bite with relief.
