"Ah - I'm so exhausted."
After taking a bath and changing into pajamas, Kagawa threw himself directly on the bed.
The mattress is so soft and it’s nice to have money. This is the first impression.
Today is indeed very tiring. On the first day of time travel, she had to busy herself with her "picky" tongue, including a simple breakfast, a stressful lunch, and a dinner that completely replicated the contents of the lunch...
If I remember correctly, my plan last night was to cook snail noodles today and be done with it, right? Kagawa thought tiredly.
Looking at the brother and sister who eat the same kind of gnocchi from morning to night but are not tired of it and want to lick the bottom of the bowl clean, it can only be said that the food of the 21st century is really a treasure to modern people. For Xiangchuan, who had just eaten sweet and sour pork ribs and Lanzhou beef noodles yesterday, it was still a bit overwhelming.
"Ah... I want to eat pineapple buns tomorrow."
Xiangchuan looked at the terminal placed on the bedside table. The golden terminal looked like the little pineapple buns sold by a street bakery for some reason, which aroused her greed again.
Of course, you can't buy it in this day and age.
I can’t do it if I can’t buy it?
Today, Xiangchuan, who has conquered the tongue of modern people, confidently picked up the terminal and opened Geegle to start searching for the recipe of Hong Kong-style pineapple buns.
Recipes are easy to find. Hong Kong-style pineapple buns have been popular in China for longer than her age. You can even find some more appetizing versions with fillings, but the problem is...
You actually need both high-gluten flour and low-gluten flour?
butter? But the only seasoning available now is ordinary edible peanut oil?
Yeast and oven? ? ?
Xiangchuan suddenly felt that his craftsmanship was not so omnipotent. Without giving up, she opened the search page of this world and searched for food raw materials. Five minutes later, she sat on the bedside and thought about life.
High-gluten flour and low-gluten flour have a poor taste (Kagawa: I think flour tastes the same when eaten raw), so the output is very small, but fortunately, I am currently working for the third ship group "Demeter" that accounts for the majority of agricultural product exports. "Ear", you might be able to find it if you look carefully.
There is also an unexpected gain when searching for flour-related information, that is, in modern times, rice is still one of the staple foods. The problem is that only rice flour is circulated in the market.
That's okay, at least I can make more rice cakes and rice noodles. Xiangchuan, whose hometown was in a rice noodle province in his previous life, said this is not a problem.
Butter isn’t a problem either, it just takes some work to make the cream.
The problem is the yeast and the oven, especially the oven.
After just completing a search, Xiangchuan understood why the food in this world was so unpalatable - because people in this era did not have the concept of heating food.
Modern people are determined to make all raw materials into liquid food and zero-moisture solid food that can be eaten immediately to supply a population of 200 million in each fleet. Although there are many kinds of ingredients, the lack of condiments and cooking techniques have led to excessive production of agricultural products in all ship groups, although there are also technicians who take the ingredients and convert them into energy for the ship groups (Kagawa: What a waste! ), but the conversion rate is far lower than that of metal materials, so the production escorts of each fleet are gradually regarded as a burden. There is discussion on the Internet that in the next fleet exchange year, the first fleet will officially produce escorts to force escorts. The ship organization change bill will adjust the escort ships of each convoy from the current force production of 6 ships to a formation of 8 force ships and 4 production ships.
The heating plates in various kitchens are now only used to process some ingredients that are about to expire, and are not even used to boil hot water, because modern drinking water can be directly supplied from the water circulation center through water pipes, and mineral springs can also be selected. water and purified water.
Theoretically speaking, it is not difficult to get an oven. With her parents' current status, she can just find an acquaintance to customize one privately. As long as she makes one for the kitchen AI to refer to, she can have freshly baked pineapple buns at home at any time. .
But……
Looking at the bill to change the escort ship's establishment and the current diet of modern people, Kagawa felt very uncomfortable.
What is certain now is that you can’t expect to eat pineapple buns tomorrow.
Let alone bread, I can’t even eat steamed buns. Xiangchuan thought desperately and got into the quilt.
Lin Yu declined the invitation from Xiang Weiguo and his wife to stay overnight and returned to the hotel prepared by the Third Ship Group government for the First Ship Group's diplomatic team. Just as he was reviewing today's experience at Xiang's house, the long-distance communication on the terminal rang.
[Buzz...Dad, good evening, have you had dinner? 】
A cheerful boy appeared across the screen, and Lin Yu couldn't help but laugh. This was his second child. After the cold war separation from his wife, his daughter and son took turns living with the couple, rotating every three months. He also serves as a microphone for him and his wife.
"I ate, and it was a big meal. It was a big loss if you didn't come with me this time."
Lin Yu was reminiscing about the noodles for dinner, and he didn't forget to tease his son who didn't want to go out just to play games.
[Isn’t it just the noodle soup and solid food made by the third fleet? I can also eat it at the production ship of our first fleet. 】
The boy was dismissive.
"It's different this time."
As he said this, Lin Yu called up the image of tonight's dinner in his terminal. Of course, he obtained the permission of the Xiangwei Guo couple and Xiangchuan before taking pictures.
[Isn’t this still soup... Hey, why is it red? What are the yellow and white things inside? What is this flat, soft thing? 】
The boy's eyes widened as he looked at the image. In the image, his father scooped up the red and yellow soup with a spoon, put it into his mouth and chewed it with gusto. From time to time, he would pick up the yellow round flat plate on the plate next to him. Put something in your mouth. What's more important is that these things are actually steaming, which means that these things are hot!
In my impression, hot noodle soup doesn't taste very good. Hot solid food smells good but tastes dry and mushy, so I don't usually eat hot food.
But the way his father put mouthfuls of them into his mouth was obviously saying: These things are delicious!
This confused the boy.
[Is this the newly opened restaurant over there at the Third Ship Group? 】
The boy's curiosity was aroused, and he inquired, thinking that if he had the opportunity to travel to the third boat group, he would try it.
"No, this is the family dinner of Xiang Wei Guoguo, the director of Yuexiang Group. I was just lucky enough to catch it." Lin Yu touched his chin, "They did prepare a hotel dinner for me, but all I could think about was this. I had a lump, so I didn’t go.”
[I wouldn’t go if it were me. Dad, bring some of this... gnocchi you mentioned? Come back, I want to try it too. 】
The boy swallowed hard when he saw his father drinking all the soup in the video.
"The little chef said that freshly made gnocchi are best. This may be a bit difficult, but you might be able to taste another delicious dish after a while."
Lin Yu remembered that when he left Xiang's house, Xiang Wei Guo and his wife no longer wanted to please him as they had in the space port. They could only treat him respectfully as a guest. He couldn't help but sigh that life is really unexpected.
【Little chef? Could this have been done by a child? 】
The boy's eyes widened.
"I think she is an older sister to you. She is a little girl who is very good at eating." Lin Yu smiled, "These are the recipes she unexpectedly harvested from the turbulent flow of information. I have a hunch that she will definitely make other ones." s things."
[Dad, you don’t want to go to other people’s houses to have meals during these two weeks in the first fleet...]
The boy looked at his father's thoughtful expression and said with shame. His father was seen as a shrewd and capable person in the eyes of others, but only his family and his direct subordinates knew that he actually had an extraordinary talent. He once took a month off for a new variety of wheat and traveled to an undeveloped route at that time. The Ninth Ship Group on board got a small bag of seeds through persistent fighting.
"It's not impossible. I'll go talk to Xiang Dong tomorrow. If everything goes well, maybe you can eat these new foods earlier?"
Lin Yu was moved. He touched his chin and began to think about the possibility of cheating. The boy wanted to complain, but was defeated by his curiosity about food and decided to wait and see.
