"Get up~" Yu Wuya glared and used his arms to exert force. The stone mill began to rotate instantly. Chen Xu quickly put a spoonful of wheat into the grinding eye.
¡°Whoa whoa whoa~¡±
As the stone mill rotates, the wheat grains enter the grooves between the grinding teeth. The stone mill suddenly becomes a lot lighter. Every two turns, Chen Xu will find a way to pour a spoonful of wheat into the grinding teeth. , after seven or eight rounds, the ground wheat flour fell from the grinding gap between the two stone mills and fell into the pottery basin under the grinding frame.
¡°Look, look, the flour is out!¡± Myolie screamed excitedly.
Mrs. Chen Jiang looked excitedly at her son's serious movements, and secretly studied and imitated them carefully in her heart.
Shui Qingrou's beautiful eyes were wide open, her mouth was open, and her face was full of disbelief.
"Haha, my benefactor, this is so amazing. It's much faster than the stone mill!" Yu Wuya seemed to have discovered a new continent, shouting excitedly, using his hands harder and harder, and the stone mill whirred and spun. So fast, his butt was twisting like a 1,500-watt electric motor. Chen Xu almost had his arm grinded and the spoon flew away several times when he fed the wheat.
"Slow down, slow down, don't be so fast!" Chen Xu reminded repeatedly in fear.
Densely packed flour mixed with brown bran continued to fall into the pottery pot like a waterfall, and soon accumulated into a ring of mountains.
And Yu Wuya was like a tireless motor. He pushed for twenty minutes at a stretch before he felt a little tired and his speed slowly slowed down.
"Enough, enough, enough for several meals!" Chen Xu looked at the flour in the pottery basin, and he estimated that it was two or three kilograms before he stopped.
"Haha, it's fun, it's fun!" Yu Wuya stopped and still had some unfinished thoughts.
Chen Xu squatted down, grabbed a handful of flour and kneaded it with his hands. He found that the flour was very fine. As long as the bran was screened out, it would not be much different from the flour of later generations. Then he showed a satisfied smile. .
When he originally designed the stone mill, he had thought of process issues. Therefore, the diameter of the millstone was nearly 20 centimeters larger than the stone mills used at home in later generations, and the weight was also much heavier. Chen Xu remembered that the diameter of the stone mill at his home was only 4 cm. More than ten centimeters, the thickness is only more than ten centimeters, and the diameter of this stone mill is sixty centimeters, and the thickness reaches more than twenty centimeters. Although the grinding process is much rougher, the enlarged and thickened grinding disc still lives up to expectations. , completely achieved the result he wanted.
Compared with the flour ground by flour mills in later generations, the current flour particles are slightly rougher, but there is no problem at all when used to make noodles and steamed buns.
¡°Mom, go take out the fine flour sieve you made a few days ago!¡±
"I'll go, I'll go!" Xing'er turned around and ran into the house. After a while, she took out a round bamboo sieve with a diameter of about 30 centimeters.
This was made by Chen Xu according to the memory of later generations when he was making mosquito nets a few days ago. The purpose was to prepare in advance for eating noodles. It was made of very thin blue bamboo silk and the holes were very fine. However, because of the technology The problem is that the sieve is very rough. It would be completely unacceptable to later generations of bamboo craftsmen, but in the eyes of Yu Wuya and Shui Qingrou, it is an incredibly beautiful object.
Chen Xu took out the pottery basin for collecting flour, put the flour mixed with a large amount of bran into the flour sieve, and shook it gently, and saw the snow-white flour falling down like snow.
Yu Wuya, Shui Qingrou, Xing'er and Chen Jiangshi all watched Chen Xu's movements without blinking, watching the flour mixed with brown bran turn into snow-white and clean flour.
"Amazing, it's really amazing. The combination of my benefactor's stone grinder and noodle sieve is a perfect match. It can only be described as miraculous." Yu Wuya was completely dazzled by Chen Xu's incredible creativity this time. , squatting next to it and praising it again and again.
Flour was not unknown in this era, but it was slowly pounded out with a stone mortar, and it was impossible to grind a large amount of wheat to such a fine size, and there was no such a fine flour sieve to sift out the flour. What you get after grinding is A mixture of flour and brown rice, and then make some pancakes, but they are rough and chewy.And even this kind of rough flour can only be eaten by wealthy families. Ordinary poor families don't even have enough food to eat. Many people have never seen what flour looks like in their lives.
"My dear friend, can we start making noodles?" Yu Wuya asked with eyes shining as he watched Chen Xu finish sifting the flour.
"Well, let me try making some noodles with the noodles. I hope the noodles are chewy enough!" Chen Xu nodded, and then told Mrs. Chen Jiang to prepare a chopping board and a clay pot for mixing noodles. After everything was ready, they started to prepare the noodles. The first pastry chef in my two lifetimes.
Scoop out a bowl of noodles and place it in a small earthen basin, add water to knead the noodles, knead repeatedly to form a dough, cover with a semi-dry wet linen cloth to ferment.
Because there is no yeast, we can only wait for the dough to ferment naturally.
The temperature in summer is very high. Although there is no thermometer, Chen Xu feels that it is more than 30 degrees. This temperature is very suitable for the growth of yeast.
After sitting under the pergola, drinking a cup of herbal tea, chatting and resting for half an hour, Chen Xu took off the linen and pressed it with his hands. He found that it had some elasticity. Then he took off a ball and put it on the chopping board. The bamboo tube began to roll out the noodles.
A group of people stood watching without blinking.
Chen Xu clumsily rolled out the dough into a piece of unevenly thick dough, then spread a layer of flour on it, rolled it together and cut it into thin strips, shook it out, and the noodles were done.
Chen Xu can easily do the next steps together.
In future generations, there will be no other way. Cooking noodles can be said to be a commonplace meal.
With the help of Xing'er, make a fire and boil the water. After the water boils, lower it. After boiling it for three times, put some salt and lard in the bottom of the bowl, then pour a spoonful of the fragrant pork ribs that have been stewed since the morning, and sprinkle Add some chopped wild garlic sprouts and scallions.
"Come on, let's try how it tastes!" Chen Xu, like a later-generation noodle restaurant chef, put a few bowls of noodles on the dining table, and then looked at Yu Wuya and Yu Wuya, who had already picked up their chopsticks and sat at the table with their chopsticks, with a little uneasiness. Myolie, even Shui Qingqing and Chen Jiangshi looked a little excited.
"Let's eat~" Yu Wuya couldn't wait any longer. Before he finished speaking, Chen Xu put his chopsticks into the bowl, stirred it up and clumsily picked up a few noodles and stuffed them into his mouth.
In fact, the moment Chen Xu poured on the braised pork ribs, he felt that countless greedy insects were about to crawl out of his body.
"Wow~, it's delicious, soft and smooth full of fragrance the color is like ice and snow, it can be called the best delicacy in the world!" Yu Wuya's eyes widened as he ate, mumbling. Qing praised him repeatedly.
Myolie has already known about her brother¡¯s methods, and she doesn¡¯t think it¡¯s too magical. She keeps her head buried like a little pig eating and not talking, because her brother is magical every day.
Shui Qingrou couldn't care less about her ladylike demeanor. From the first bite, she never stopped with her chopsticks. She opened her little cherry mouth to reveal her neat teeth. She seemed to be chewing slowly, but her speed was not slow. Not even the ribs were spared.
Mrs. Chen Jiang also tasted it for the first time, and then praised with a smile: "The braised pork ribs noodles made by Xu'er taste really good, soft and glutinous. You have been busy all morning, sit down and eat!" (note) Please visit our website: www.hlnovel.com
