Chapter 56: Really Capable (Qiong Ru rewards 15,000 coins for more updates)
“Mom, this, this…what is this?”
“This is called... popcorn, also called popcorn. When the popcorn grains are exploded, they explode into flowers, and they become popcorn flowers.”
"This cob is the same color as topaz, and it comes in grains like rice. It is also called corn in some places, so some people call it corn flower."
While Su Mulan was talking, he put all the stick flowers from the pot into two bamboo baskets and spread them out flat, so that the stick flowers could dry out the heat and become even crispier and more delicious.
"Here, help me carry it into the yard first." Su Mulan picked up one of the bamboo baskets and called to Bai Lixia.
Bai Lixia was still curious about how the stick grains turned into stick flowers. She was holding a stick flower and looking at it carefully. When she heard Su Mulan say this, she quickly walked out of the kitchen together with the bamboo basket.
The three little carrot heads also heard the crackling sounds in the yard, and even smelled the fragrance. However, Su Mulan didn't call them in, so they didn't go to take a look. Now they saw Su Mulan holding a bamboo basket. When he came out, Bai Zhuye and Bai Mi Dou hurriedly surrounded him.
“Mom, what is this?”
"It looks white and smells pretty good." Bai Mi Dou raised his face, "Mom, is this food?"
"These are stick flowers." Su Mulan grabbed a handful and stuffed them into the hands of white bamboo leaves and white rice beans respectively. "These are almost enough. Do you want to try them?"
"Put down the bamboo basket at the beginning of summer and eat some quickly."
Su Mulan grabbed another handful and handed it to Bai Shuiliu who was sitting beside him, "Try Shuiliu, too."
“Thank you, mother.”
The four little carrot heads thanked them and stuffed the white stick flowers in their hands into their mouths.
Crisp, fragrant, sweet…
It can be said that these three feelings burst out in the mouth in an instant, and then quickly condensed together. The four little carrot heads were stunned for a moment, and then they stuffed a stick flower into their mouths.
One, two, three…
It can be said that this subconscious action could not stop at all. It was not until all the sticks and flowers in his hands were eaten that the four little carrot heads smashed them and smacked their lips.
“Mom, these stick flowers are so delicious.” Bai Zhuye praised.
As he spoke, he couldn't help but stick out his tongue and lick his lips.
There is also a slight sweetness and a strong aroma of stick flowers.
“Not only is it delicious, but the name also sounds nice. My mother said these popcorn flowers are also called corn popcorn, and what else...yeah, yes, popcorn, the name sounds very fresh.”
Bai Lixia subconsciously raised her chin.
Mother is so capable, she can make such novel and rare food.
"I feel like once I eat these popcorn flowers, I can't stop at all. I can't help but want to eat another handful." Bai Shuiliu also said with a smile, looking at the basket where the popcorn flowers were placed. Look.
Su Mulan couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
She also tasted the popcorn just now. Because there was no butter, the taste was not rich enough, but it was fragrant and full of flavor, and the amount of sugar was enough, so it tasted pretty good.
But this popcorn obviously hasn't appeared here yet. Even if it tastes good, Su Mulan is worried about whether the popcorn can be adapted to the local environment and be liked by everyone.
But now Bai Shuiliu, who has always been the least concerned about eating, has said this. I guess this popcorn here should be able to adapt to the public's taste and become a popular snack.
