Chapter 130 Make Candied Haws
Danzi knows a lot of things that this world doesn't have, but most of those things can't be made in this backward world.
However, such a low-level food as candied haws, of course, does not require high-level wisdom.
"Oh, isn't the candied haws that sweet on the outside and sour on the inside, but that's not delicious." Xiao Ayu frowned.
Xiao Ayu is not a picky eater. As long as it is for her, she will eat it.
Even if the candied haws were particularly unpalatable, he would endure the discomfort in his heart and finish it.
[Your fruit is originally sweet, so it won't be sour in it. Before you tasted it, it was sour because the hawthorn in it was originally sour. 】
【General food does not change its taste. Of course, sometimes it is not handled well, and it may turn sweet things into sour. 】
Tuanzi explained to Xiao Ayu about the theory of food, but Xiao Ayu heard it in a fog, and in the end, he only understood that the fruit they made might be sweet.
"But we don't have sugar at home."
Lao Wang's family only has a little sugar, which is usually not used. Sometimes Mrs. Wang will mix a little sugar water for Xiao Ayu to drink. Others don't have this blessing.
Qin Huai: "My family has it, what are you going to do?"
Xiao Ayu: "To make candied haws, it is the same candied haws that I used to eat, but I don't know if it will be delicious."
Qin Huai thought again that he brought a bunch of candied haws and wanted to give it to her, but she said she didn't like it.
Until now, Qin Huai still remembers.
"Don't you like to eat?" Still don't like what he gave.
Xiao Ayu said: "In the past, candied haws were sweet on the outside and sour on the inside. I want to eat both inside and outside."
Hearing Xiao Ayu's explanation, Qin Huai's face finally improved a lot, she was just a greedy little girl.
"Let's do it at my house." Qin Huai said to Chi Jia who was beside him, "Go and invite the fourth aunt over."
The children of Lao Wang's family were very excited when they heard that they would use wild fruits to make candied haws, but they had never eaten candied haws before!
Don't care if it tastes good or not, this thing is made with sugar anyway, even if it doesn't taste good, the sugar can't be wasted.
Liu has never made candied haws. With the help of dumplings, Xiao Ayu described the taste of candied haws to Liu.
"Okay, then I'll try it first." Liu Shi probably thought about it in his heart and started to operate.
She was still a little nervous, sugar, but a very precious thing, if it was wasted, it would be really uncomfortable.
"Fourth aunt, you can do it with confidence, enough sugar."
He kept a big jar of candy at home, which was originally prepared for Xiao Ayu. Thinking that Xiao Ayu would like to eat sweet things, he was planning to let Chijia learn some.
Liu thought, if you want the fruit to be coated with sugar, the sugar is still red and hard, so it should be boiled with brown sugar, but Qin Huai only has white sugar here.
It is said to be white sugar, and it is not very white. It is mixed with a little red and yellow. This is also because the sugar-making technology in the town is relatively backward.
More delicate sugar, I'm afraid you have to go to Wanning City to buy it.
"I have seen a craftsman who melted the sugar water, then wrapped the fruit with sugar water, and after cooling, it became a candied haws." Seeing that Liu Shi had been afraid to start, Qin Huai said beside him.
Liu was skeptical, and tried it as Qin Huai said. The first time he boiled the sugar for too long, the sugar was burnt, and after wrapping it, the fruit was also scalded.
But the kids still enjoyed it.
"Fourth aunt, your candied haws are so delicious!"
"Yes, yes, this is the best candied haws I have ever eaten!"
"Wow, that's great, we can go to the stall, there must be a lot of people buying it!"
A few boys were especially supportive, even if one of them only got one, they would cherish it very much.
Xiao Ayu naturally also got it. She took a bite, but she felt that her mouth was full of sweetness. When she bit it, the fruit turned into juice and melted into her mouth.
"Huhuhu, it's so hot!" Little Ayu rolled her tongue, feeling a little bitter on the tip of her tongue. She didn't like to suffer, but she raised a smile and said, "Aniang's cooking is delicious!"
Liu knew that these children were flattering themselves. The first time they did it, they didn't do it well, but they took shape anyway, which gave Liu a lot of confidence.
When I made it for the second time, I didn’t cook it for enough time, and the syrup that was coated was still grainy. After a little dry, the taste was a little rusty.
The children said that they did not taste as good as the first time, but they were still delicious.
"You little elves, just want to eat a few more." After two attempts in succession were not successful, Liu Shi was still a little distressed, "Xiaohuai, otherwise don't do it, I haven't done it, it's also What a waste of sugar."
"It's okay, auntie, you can do it with confidence, you see that Ayu likes to eat." Qin Huai said a series of words in one breath, speaking quickly, and his tone naturally took on a bit of childishness.
He pursed his lips again and didn't say any more.
Afraid of talking too much, the fourth aunt treats him as a child.
He doesn't like being a child.
Qin Huai usually speaks concisely, because he knows that adults often talk like this, and they talk too much, like a chattering doll.
Liu hadn't thought about it that much at all. After being encouraged, he felt that it was not good for him to give up halfway, so he continued to do it.
made four or five times in a row, and finally made a crystal clear candied haws.
The fruit inside is red and covered with a layer of semi-red syrup. After a little cooling, the syrup on the outside turns into a transparent icing.
Because it is only done one by one, these fruits are all placed on a plate and not strung together.
Those who failed in the past, children can eat without any psychological burden, but now they are afraid to open their mouths when they see such a complete and beautiful candied haws.
"Why don't you eat?" Chi Jia asked first.
Wang Goro was embarrassed and touched his stomach: "I ate too much, I'm a little full, so keep these for now."
Wang Liulang was also a little embarrassed. Although the fruit belonged to them, the fruit was not valuable, and the sugar was the valuable one. They ate too much.
"Let's keep these and give them to Qin Huai. We'll send you an extra basket of fruits. We ate too much today."
Of course, little Ayu was not full. She only ate four or five in total, but she covered her cheeks and said, "It's too sweet, too sweet, and Ayu can't feel it on her tongue!"
That playful look made everyone laugh.
Qin Huai said: "Do you want to sell candied haws? Can I participate? You will produce the fruit, and the fourth aunt will produce the skills. I will be responsible for producing the candy, and then who will sell it, and then we will divide it. What do you think?"
Several children were a little dumbfounded. They didn't know what was divided or not. This sounds a bit complicated.
Liu also hesitated: "Can this thing really be sold?"
Although they tried many times today, they made it in a short time. Other people's candied haws can be handed down to their families.
Is really so easy to be copied by them?
