MTL - Reborn To The Start Of The Apocalypse To Farm-Chapter 32 The first meal in the last days?

The meat that has been soaked for a whole night in advance is already soft. At this time, the meat is taken out and cut into large pieces, and some of the color of fresh meat can still be seen inside. In addition to meat, Wei Xuan also soaked some dried beans and cabbage in advance, and they were all soaked together at this time.

Wash the rice collected from someone in the community, and stew it in a pressure cooker. Wei Xuan connects another induction cooker with a charging power supply, puts the pot, pours oil, puts in the chopped pork belly and starts to stir-fry.

Although he doesn't know how to cook, he is not completely ignorant. It should be no problem to simply combine and try to make something that can be eaten. Although he doesn't know how to stew meat, he can barely do it to make the ingredients as delicious as possible.

The meat, which was obviously dried, could still emit fat after frying it in hot oil. Wei Xuan, who hadn't eaten serious food for a long time, had the urge to fish out the meat and eat it when he smelled the aroma. However, firmly believing that the real delicious food can only be eaten until the end, Wei Xuan waited patiently for the meat to be fried until it turned crispy and golden brown, and then poured in soy sauce, cooking wine and other seasonings— Occupying such a community has a lot of benefits. Wei Xuan collected a lot of oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar after thoroughly tidying up a few buildings without going out to collect any seasonings. People who cook with hot fire have used it for at least one year.

When the meat had completely turned into sauce, Wei Xuan scratched his head, looked left and right, randomly grabbed some spices that he didn't know what they were, but looked like they would be put into the pot to enhance the fragrance when stewed meat, and sprinkled them into the pot, so The cumin, aniseed, and even peppercorns are so fully mixed with the pork belly... Fortunately, Wei Xuan was careful not to add more because he was worried that he might accidentally put in the wrong seasoning and cause the whole pot to be wasted. Let it go, or he will feel uncomfortable when eating later.

Once the items were settled and some water added, he threw the fresh, diced potatoes into the pot along with the other soaked vegetables.

It took a full hour for this pot of stew soup to be completely collected, and the rice had already been stewed and kept warm.

Wei Xuan looked at the pot of "delicious food" with almost all potatoes melted in the pot. At this moment, there was only one sentence echoing in his heart - I must go out tomorrow! Go to the bookstore for the recipe!

It's not that he never cooked potatoes in his previous life, but at that time he didn't have other high-end luxury goods such as seasonings and meat, so in most cases, like everyone else in the Douyu base, he lit a fire, put Throw the potatoes directly into the fire and burn them. When eating, pull them out to remove the burnt black outside and eat them with salt.

If he knew that he put too much water in the beginning, he wouldn't be able to throw the potatoes in so early if he was killed!

Fortunately, although the potatoes are almost all stewed, the taste of this weird stew is extraordinarily strong! The taste of the meat was fully integrated into the pot, because there was a lot of cooking wine, there was no fishy smell in this weird stew. Compared with potatoes, those dried and soaked vegetables are extraordinarily resistant to cooking! After stewing for such a long time, it is still very rich in taste, absorbing all the aroma of gravy and soup.

The only fly in the ointment is that Wei Xuan put those spices directly into the pot before. Although they can enhance the fragrance, they are all mixed into the whole pot at this time. The rhythm of surprises...

When he accidentally ate peppercorns for the third time, Wei Xuan silently swallowed it with rice, and put the task of going out to find recipes on the top priority of the action list again in his heart.

———

From the day after harvesting the first wave of potatoes, Wei Xuan first chopped up all the useless vines in the field with a manual stuffing machine, and then mixed them into the soil. In this way, new, germinated potatoes can be planted in just a few days later, and there is no need to worry about the problem that the land is too barren and the production will be reduced in the future.

It took him more than two full days just to process these things. In the rest of the time, he sliced, washed, and boiled all the harvested potatoes except for the sprouted ones, and put them on the top layer to dry. . The potato chips made in this way will not be too broken after drying, and the taste will be better when they are ready to eat.

After finishing all the trivial tasks at home, Wei Xuan planned to go out early the next morning - looking for books.

Of course, what he was looking for was not some world famous books or professional books, but the recipes that he had tricked him once before. People who can't cook are not a big problem in themselves. Wei Xuan didn't have the time to study before the end of the world, and he didn't have time to study in the past and after the end of the world. But now that his life has been guaranteed and he has found a relatively stable place to live, he will naturally have to make some efforts and research to improve some quality of life.

This may be the reason why the science and technology points of various countries will be allocated to various weapons and fortifications during the war, and the reason why everyone will use these points to various high-tech products that improve the quality of life in peacetime.

Early the next morning, when Wei Xuan was about to get up after being woken up by the alarm clock, his face drooped as soon as he opened the curtains—it was raining again outside.

Rain is a good thing, especially in the last days when the water system is completely paralyzed, but it is not a good thing for people who are going to go out.

Sighing: "It's because God doesn't let me go out, forget it, go to the roof to catch water."

A few days ago, when washing potato chips and boiling potatoes, a lot of purified rainwater was consumed. Although there is still a lot of water in the house, it is not forbidden at all. If there is more clean water, Wei Xuan can take a bath frequently. In this sweltering midsummer, there is nothing like taking a bath every night. In order to save water, he took a bath every night. They only dare to wipe their bodies.

After a brief wash, Wei Xuan took Du Hang and climbed up to the roof first, turned over dozens of large and small buckets and basins on the roof to catch the rainwater, and ran away all the buildings with roofs and containers in the community. convenient. After finishing all this work, Wei Xuan dragged Du Hang back home with nothing to do. The two of them stayed at home for another two days, packing up some things that needed to be tidied up at home, and when the weather cleared outside, most of the accumulated water on the ground should be drained. It should be dried in the sun, and then calmly walked out of the community and walked towards the relatively prosperous commercial street nearby.

It’s not that Wei Xuan hadn’t discovered a bookstore when he was picking and collecting materials before, but the books at that time were just used as paper for lighting a fire when he didn’t have any firewood. It's real and useful.

But now, the role of these books has been raised by more than one level in his mind.

The shelves in the small bookstore found by Wei Xuan were basically shaken to pieces in the previous earthquake. At this time, those books seemed to have piled up into hills, scattered everywhere in piles. What is more pitiful is that the waterproof eaves at the entrance of the bookstore were cracked in the previous earthquake, and the two rains caused the rainwater to flow directly into the bookstore along the cracks, soaking all the books near the entrance beyond recognition.

Fortunately, most of the review materials and children's books placed at the door are all kinds of review materials and children's books. The recipe reference books that Wei Xuan is looking for are all placed deep in the bookstore. Wandering around the room full of books, Wei Xuan filled his and Du Hang's big backpacks to the brim. Most of the recipes he selected were those with illustrations, the ones that were sold very expensive before the end of the world but didn't have many dishes.

After all, he didn't have time to study the dishes in the full-text recipes and the various spices that were completely unrecognizable without pictures. In the days when only potatoes and carrots are available, it is enough to find recipes that are clear at a glance, with pictures for each step, and all spices and seasonings with pictures for identification. Wei Xuanfan found almost all recipes related to potatoes, as long as he brought these back, it would be enough for him to study for a long time.

If he finds all kinds of things like Lu Cuisine and Sichuan Cuisine, he would be looking for abuse—he can’t even find all the materials these days, and reading those books will not do him any good except to speed up the secretion of saliva .

In addition to recipes, Wei Xuan took back a bunch of reference books that might be useful, such as maintenance books for some common equipment and so on.

After picking up the book, it was as if he had learned hundreds of recipes in an instant. Wei Xuan took Du Hang's hand and walked out of the bookstore in a very relaxed and happy mood. After looking around and confirming that there were no suspicious zombies nearby, the two walked around Large and small puddles, collapsed walls, skewed vehicles, and deep pits all the way home.

When packing up the materials in the community, Wei Xuan sorted out a huge amount of various seasonings and rice noodles. At this time, these found materials were piled up in other rooms of the building where he lives now.

In the past few days, Wei Xuan has been eating the mashed potato stew he made a lot the day before, and the baked potatoes he often ate in his previous life. Today, the recipe came in, and he can finally change the taste again!

Randomly jumped out of a book and flipped through it for a long time, picked out a recipe with the simplest method of making, and Wei Xuan started to work—he chose the method of potato pancakes. Although he didn't have fresh scallions at hand, he had collected a lot of these common vegetables when the end of the world first arrived. At this time, those scallions had already been processed into dried vegetables by him, and there were still a lot of them. Just took it out and used it together.
