Super Chief

Chapter 104: Tofu

   What makes Shixiong more happy is that the quality of these soybeans is not bad. After a day of picking and picking, Shixiong picked out seven bags of soybeans that could be seeded.

   Although the remaining unqualified soybeans are only four bags of 100 kilograms, it is enough to make tofu.

   One catty of dried beans can produce at least three catties of tofu even if you make old tofu. These 100 catties of dried beans can at least produce 300 catties of tofu!

   I don’t have to worry about running out of tofu this winter...

   When I think of the smooth and tender tofu, Ishikuma's saliva almost flows out.

   Since I came to this era, except for the first few days, the rest of the time is either doing this or doing that, and there is no room to eat some delicious food.

   In addition to the staple foods of the Gaoshu tribe, apart from polenta and tortillas, the dishes are basically stewed + grilled + salt, which has devastated Shixiong's stomach and taste buds.

   Now finally free up, as an elite of the big food empire, Shi Xiong can no longer bear this kind of boring food!

   Just do it, don’t be vague!

   So after Shixiong sent the selected bean seeds back to the warehouse, he staggered to the house of the best stonemason in the tribe.

   The best carpenter in the tribe is called wood, and the best stonemason is called "stone".

   And wood and stone are still brothers.

   Stone is two or three years younger than wood, and both of them are carpenters born in the tribe. It’s just that when he was young, stone was not interested in carpenter work. He liked to do stone work, so he learned from the best stonemason in the tribe, the former "stone", until the death of old stone, stone took over the name of old stone , Became the new "stone" in the tribe.

   In fact, the inheritance of North American Indians is very simple. A name or a title can often be used for several generations or even more than ten generations. This is the case of the Kabru sacrifice, the same is true of the wood, and the same is true of the stone.

   When he came to Shitou's house, Shitou was busy making big stone mills with his children and grandsons.

   Since the salt produced in Xiaoyanshan has been exchanged for so many things from Major Hank’s trading team, the tribesmen have become crazy about salt production. Stone mills, which are indispensable for salt production, have become a hot commodity, and most of the stone mills are made almost every day.

   Seeing Shi Xiong walk into the house, the family stood up respectfully.

   For this guardian, more than 90% of the tribe members are very supportive and respected. Without him, although Shi Xiong has only joined the tribe for more than a month, all the tribesmen who fell from his hands have received huge benefits, and he will naturally receive the support and respect of the tribe.

   The old stone family is no exception.

   "Dear guardian, please sit down..." Old Stone gave his seat respectfully.

   "Stop sitting." Shixiong smiled and waved his hand. "I'm here to trouble you to make me a smaller set of stone mills. I'm going to use it to make something."

   "Oh, what's the trouble to talk about. Master Guardian just say what kind of stone grinding you want. I promise to make it for you as soon as possible."

   "Okay, then I'm not welcome, I want to make such a big stone mill..."

   Shixiong said the size of the stone mill he wanted, and the old stone nodded repeatedly.

   The stone mill used by Ishikuma is almost the same as the large stone mill used for salt production, but the size is much smaller.

   The diameter of the upper fan of the stone mill is only about forty centimeters. After adding the wooden handle, one person can grind it.

   The soybeans picked out by the stone bear himself are not too many, and even if he makes tofu, he didn't think about making too many at one time, so using this small hand-pushing stone grinder is enough.

When    Shixiong was in his hometown, he watched his grandmother and his mother make tofu when he was a child, and he also did a lot of help. Later, after attending middle school, once the family made tofu, Shixiong became the main force.

   Before going to university, Shi Xiong lived in his hometown in the country. At that time, there was no soymilk machine. To make tofu, the most primitive stone mill was used.

The stone mill in   's hometown is also a small hand-push stone mill. The upper fan is a round grinding disc with holes in the side wall, and wooden handles can be added. The lower fan is fixed, and there is a large circle on the edge, and there is a material outlet.

   With this kind of stone mill, I want to make more than ten kilograms of tofu, grinding soybeans is very fast.

   Of course, if you want to make such a stone mill, you can't make it in a short while. It was not until the next afternoon that Old Stone took his two sons and used a cart to pull the stone grinder that Stone Bear wanted.

   With a stone mill, you can start making tofu.

   In fact, making tofu is very simple. Put the beans in a pot or a wooden basin and add two to three times the amount of water before going to bed at night. When you wake up the next morning, the beans are basically soaked.

   Then pick out the few beans that are not soaked, and the remaining soaked beans can be polished with water.

   The stone grinder is not big, not to mention Shi Xiong's current physique, even in his previous life, he could easily push such a large stone grinder in circles.

   The beans leaked from the grinding eye, and while adding water, the stone grinder was rotated. Soon, milky soy milk flowed out from underneath.

   However, these soy milk contains a lot of impurities such as bean skins~lightnovelpub.net~ So at the exit of the lower fan, Shixiong has already wrapped cotton cloth-the cotton cloth bought from Wasichchumen.

   This cotton cloth is specially used for filtering. The soy milk containing impurities flowing out of the outlet passes through this cotton cloth. The clean soy milk can easily leak down, and the impurities contained in the soy milk are filtered out by this cotton cloth.

   Under the cotton cloth is a big pottery pot. Yes, don't look at the Gaoshu tribe being very backward, but they knew how to make pottery a long time ago. There are also a lot of pottery in the tribe. The big pottery basin used by Shi Xiong now was brought from Hongyun's house.

   Seeing that this pottery basin was almost half received, Shi Xiong's door was pushed open, and Hong Yun walked in with a few women chattering.

   "What kind of beans are you doing..." Hong Yun squatted next to the stone mill and asked as she watched the stone bear pick up the soy milk. Several women next to each other also whispered.

"It's tofu. It's a delicious food. But it will take a while to make it." Shixiong said, sweeping out the ground residue with a cooking broom, and then removed the cotton cloth for filtering. I picked it off and squeezed it so hard that the bean dregs wrapped in cotton cloth was handed to Hong Yun, "Don’t throw away this thing. Go back and add some chopped potatoes and pumpkin. You can also add some minced meat and add some salt. , And then spread it in a pan with oil and fry it on both sides. The taste is very good."

   Hongyun took the bean dregs in a daze, hesitated for a moment and asked, "This is what tofu you are talking about?"

   "Haha, the tofu has to wait a while, this is tofu residue, but it tastes great when it is cooked."

   said, Shi Xiong began to busy with the next step.
