Traveling through ancient times: Savages are hungry for food

Sang Tian originally planned to make wine with grapes, but this process requires sugar.

I've been so busy these days that I don't have time to cut sugarcane and make sugar. Besides, by the time the sugar is ready, the grapes will have gone bad.

So I can only put this idea aside for now...

But don’t we have pomegranates? Sang Tian plans to make pomegranate wine after harvesting the sugarcane and boiling the sugar!

……

Sang Tian picked the grapes one by one, removing the seeds. Then he placed them in a vine basket and immersed two-thirds of the basket in water.

Sprinkle some wood ash in the water and rub it more than three times to ensure that the grapes are clean.

After the stone pot is slightly heated, pour the grape skins into the pot, add a little water and simmer over medium heat. The boiling juice will slowly turn purple-red... Cook until the color of the grape skins becomes lighter and then remove them.

Pour the grape pulp into a stone pot, bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low heat and continue simmering until the soup is thick and stringy.

Sang Tian dipped his finger in it and tasted it. The sour and sweet juice burst into his mouth, which was delicious and refreshing, with endless flavor...

If only there were a piece of bread at this time, dipped in grape jam, how delicious it would be...

Sang Tian took out the bamboo tube that had been boiled and sterilized in advance, poured grape jam into it, covered it with a lid and sealed it for storage.

After all this was done, some chestnuts and a taro in the fire were also cooked.

I've been so busy these days that I haven't had time to cook delicious food in different ways. Once this period is over, it will be time for me to enjoy a feast!

After finishing the meal and cleaning up the scene, Sang Tian returned to the cave with the sauce she had made.

It was already completely dark outside, and Sang Tian had just walked to the entrance of the cave.

Then she saw a tall and straight figure holding an oil lamp slowly walking towards her...

The bright light hit his face, and the sidelight made his clear facial features stand out clearly in the darkness. His high nose bridge, deep eyebrows, sharp jaw, and concave collarbone were all soft and sharp at this moment...

The dark hair and skin were also set off by the warm light, and the muscular body looked strong and powerful under the light...

A pair of eyes filled with love looked at Sang Tian in the warm light.

Sang Tian only felt the breeze whistling in his ears, but could not hear any sound.

Her eyes were filled with only sadness. He held a bright lamp and walked towards Sang Tian in the darkness and chill. It was as if she was stuck in a quagmire, but there was someone as pure and indifferent as the magnolia, willing to jump out and get covered in mud to reach out to her...

At this moment, Sang Tian finally understood the meaning of "redemption"...

I was already stuck in a quagmire. Even though I had been admitted to university, the cold memories of the past still accompanied me every moment, never forgotten...

I have never been chosen and loved firmly by anyone, and the cold place has been filled with love. How can I not feel dull?

Cang, if you do this, I will really fall in love with you forever...

……

"Cang, come in and sit down!"

Sang Tian immediately lit the oil lamp on the bamboo table, and the cave finally became bright and warm...

"San, you're too busy to make do with food now! I grilled a cuckold beast for you! Come on and eat!"

As he spoke, he tore a chicken leg for Sang Tian.

……

It turns out he's been watching me from places I haven't noticed. He even noticed me when I only ate some chestnuts and taro... He even roasted something for me...

Sang Tian was actually really full, but looking at Cang's expectant eyes, she couldn't bear to say no.

Sang Tian took the chicken leg and also pulled one off for Cang...

"There's so much, I can't finish it. Let's eat it together!"

……

The two of them sat there in the warm light, chatting from time to time...

When Cang was about to leave, Sang Tian gave him two bamboo tubes of grape jam!

……

Sang Tian fell asleep with a heart full of joy.

A dreamless night...

The next day, morning.

As soon as Sang Tian and his group set out on the road, they saw Han leading a group of males out of the woods.

It turned out that he was carrying taro.

They are strong and each basket of taro is full to the brim. They are more efficient than females in carrying taro.

Han also said that he would come back to carry it again as soon as he came back from hunting this afternoon.

……

After arriving at the taro field, the group immediately began busy collecting taro, working tirelessly even though they were sweating profusely...

……

By one o'clock in the afternoon, all the taro had been dug out.

While everyone was resting, Sang Tian led a team of people to pick all the dates from the red date tree.

These red dates are large and red, each one perfectly round and smooth, making them very appealing. The rich aroma of the dates and the soft texture blend together to blossom on Sang Tian's taste buds...

Sang Tian used a long bamboo pole to beat the densely packed red dates until not a single one was left.

If it falls to the ground, other females will pick it up and put it in the backpack.

This date tree is tall and lush, not to mention the huge red dates. I actually picked up 23 baskets of red dates...

……

After everything was packed up, everyone picked up their backpacks and prepared to go back.

Red dates are lighter, so they are carried by younger and pregnant females. The others naturally carry the taro...

As for the large amount of things that are still left to be carried back, let Han and the others carry them back in the afternoon.

A group of people were walking shoulder to shoulder through the forest carrying food on their backs. The sun shone through the layers of swaying leaves onto the ground, forming tiny jade shadows... The jade shadows hit everyone's faces and hair.

Like a masterpiece of inclusiveness, Mother Earth, the vitality and maternal radiance flourish at this moment...

……

It was already three in the afternoon when they got back. Sang Tian was not idle either, grinding all the dried chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, star anise and other spices into powder and putting them into a bamboo tube.

In addition, some of the ingredients she uses to make tea are also dried, such as jasmine petals, red dates, sea buckthorn, mulberries, etc.

Behind the stone mountain, Sang Tian also found a lot of lilies, which she picked, sliced and dried in the sun.

Lily has the effects of clearing away heat and calming the mind, clearing the heart and relieving troubles, and beautifying the skin. It is also a good ingredient for making tea.

……

Since both red dates and lilies are available today, Sang Tian plans to make steamed chicken with red dates and lilies.

First, soak the washed red dates in water until softened, then remove the core and chop them.

Then prepare the seasoning and marinate the chicken.

Sang Tian chopped the garlic, ginger, and onion, then sprinkled them with salt and peppercorns. Pour the mixture over the chicken, mix well, and marinate for 20 minutes.

After marinating, sprinkle the red dates and lily slices evenly on the chicken pieces.

Place the bamboo steaming plate in a stone pot, cover with a bamboo lid, and steam over high heat.

Before I even lifted the lid, the sweetness of red dates, the freshness of lilies, and the aroma of chicken wafted out through the cracks in the lid...

Sang Tian estimated that the time was about right, so he lifted the lid of the pot.

Snow-white steam suddenly appeared, and after being blown away by a gust of wind, it revealed the steaming plate.

The chicken nuggets, mingled with various seasonings, were a vibrant yellow, with translucent chicken fat clinging to the bottom. They were also adorned with red jujube segments and snow-white flower petals. The entire dish was a breathtaking sight...

In addition to the ultimate platter, there is also the irresistible aroma of garlic and onion...

Sang Tian’s first step was to find an extra-large stone bowl and fill it up.

The hunting team has not returned yet, so this bowl is for Cangliu.

Sang Tian believes in reciprocity. If someone is nice to her, she will be nice to him five times as much.

Of course, for Cang, it is more than just a matter of reciprocity and gratitude.

What guides Sang Tian's behavior is still what his heart desires!

……

Sang Tian took a bite of the chicken nuggets. The sweet and delicious taste of dates and the light fragrance of lilies blended perfectly with the firm chicken.

It’s so delicious that Sang Tian wants to call for her mom!

While Sang Tian was enjoying the food, he did not forget to feed Ping An and Xi Le, who were anxiously waiting for the food.

After eating cooked meat every day these days, the two little guys have grown a lot and look even more chubby than before.

They eat happily, with good appetites, large appetites, and are not picky about food. They eat whatever they are fed. Of course, it is not ruled out that nothing Sang Tian cooks is bad...

Sang Tian was still not satisfied after eating, but she immediately washed the pot.

Finally, he covered the bowl of rice he had left for Sang Tian and Cang in the stone pot. There was still some unburned firewood in the fire. He made sure the food would still be hot when he came back...

……

She had something else to do in the evening, and she had also made appointments with more than a dozen females, including Lan, Duo, Yu, and He...
