Lin Nuo selected some samples from the goods that were counted, and handed them over to Gu Han for processing. He probably still had something to say with Dizzy, so she would not cause any trouble.
She had already seen those seeds, saplings and the like, and they were only three or four-quarters of the ones she had seen on Earth before. Lin Nuo planned to group them into groups and make a test field according to different methods. Plant growth requires cycles, and data is accumulated bit by bit. This is not something that can be achieved overnight, so she can put it aside for now.
Lin Nuo returned to her studio which Gu Han had arranged for her in the manor, specifically for processing thorn tomatoes a few days ago with the peaches, strawberries and sour plums.
After entering the house, changing clothes and disinfecting, and completing a series of sterilization tasks, Lin Nuo began to purify in front of the test bench. At the same time, she carefully felt the molecular composition inside the fruit and wrote down a string of data in her mind until the purification was completed.
Take peaches as an example. Their appearance has not changed much. They still look like immature peaches, which are half the size of an adult’s fist. However, the cyan color is slightly lighter, and there is a tendency to turn into yellow.
Lin Nuo hesitated for a moment, but still couldn’t take a bite. She simply took a knife and cut directly on the surface of the peach twice. Then she turned the tip of the knife, picked out a thin slice as big as a fingernail, and put it in directly in her mouth.
The first taste was astringent and sour. Lin Nuo frowned and chewed twice before the subsequent sweetness came out, as if it was wrapped inside. Only by biting through the initial outer skin can you enjoy this taste.
“A strange way of evolution.”
Lin Nuo cut another piece and stuffed it into her mouth. With the sweet base, the sourness was diluted a lot, and then the sweetness followed, washing away the small discomfort.
After eating half a peach, Lin Nuo affirmed its edible value and was not suitable for selling alone, but it was okay to squeeze the juice into jam. Not to mention the sourness at the beginning, the subsequent sweetness is a bit like peach, plump and juicy. It is hard to imagine that the taste is produced by the same fruit.
“Sell a small amount individually, put some notes on the vicissitudes of life, learn about life and so on. The rest will be made into jam and juice later to try.”
Lin Nuo dictated her experience to the optical brain, and her hands were not idle, and she immediately purified the next one. The bright red strawberry is as big as the palm of her hand, and it’s hard to eat just staring at it.
“It’s so big that even a small eater can feel full after eating just one. It’s the best choice for weight loss fruit.” Lin Nuo muttered, raising the knife in her hand and cutting a few more pieces with two “shuashua”s. She still inserted the knife into her mouth.
“Hmm! It’s delicious!”
Compared with peaches, which still have a sour feeling at first, strawberries are completely different. The pulp is brought into the mouth and bitten gently. The sweet taste instantly fills the mouth, without a trace of sourness, only the intoxicating sweetness.
Along with chewing, bursts of fruity aroma overflow from the lips and teeth, bringing with it the breath of morning, making people feel comfortable. When the pulp is still finished, she was still savoring the remaining sweetness on her tongue, and just want to take another one to continue this unforgettable deliciousness.
“Absolutely! We will only sell purified fruits, any other method is a waste!”
Lin Nuo immediately made a decision after eating one. Taking into account the individual differences of the fruits, she purified some more, choosing strawberries with different appearances and tasting them one by one, until she couldn’t eat anymore, and was sure that everything was fine.
“It should be the effect of purification.” Lin Nuo thought for a while and gave the credit to her purification ability. Otherwise, there is really no way to explain why the strawberries taste surprisingly the same even though they are different individuals.
Obviously, when she was on Earth before, the oranges she bought in the same batch might still be sour or sweet. It makes no sense that in the interstellar world where plants mutate, the taste would be unified. So, it must be the effect of supernatural powers. The same goes for the thorn tomatoes she sold before. They were all delicious, and no one found them unpalatable and had to return them.
“This is the last one… Damn it!”
Lin Nuo pinched a green plum and put it into her mouth, then spat it out with a pop. Damn it, it was so sour, it broke her bottom line. Even if this thing is used to make sauce or wine… will it really taste good?
At this moment, Lin Nuo had deep doubts about this.
But she still has to try, just in case, right? It’s not economical to immediately sentence it to death if she doesn’t try it. As for the brewing methods, there are a lot of recipes on the common star websites, all of which are shared by enthusiasts themselves. Most of the ingredients are synthetic and the taste is all kinds of weird.
Some people even live broadcast the brewing process not for the taste, and use the gimmick of unexpected events or simply breaking it, attracting a large number of people who watch this as a funny video.
The real way of making wine is still in the hands of some professionals, and Lin Nuo herself has it. Before the end of the world, she went back to her hometown with her best friend and learned the craft from a local old man.
The ingredients are plums grown by the old man himself, and the tools are also homemade. The taste is certainly not as good as those carefully made by big manufacturers, but it has a unique natural flavor.
When making wine this time, Lin Nuo wanted to restore the skills she learned at that time. The tools had to be customized and the steps had to be carefully recalled for a while. After all, after so many years, she could not remember it clearly.
There is only one thing that is certain. The plum wine made by the old man’s tutor is not simply dried and then sealed with sugar and water. There are two to three steps in between, which is a critical point.
Putting off the plum wine for now, she can try making peach jam now.
After gathering the required materials, Lin Nuo fed the purified peaches into the machine, which automatically peeled and cored them and then chopped them into small pieces. She herself set up a pot and filled it with water. After the water temperature was almost 50 degrees, she added the prepared peach flesh.
Continuing to simmer over medium heat, Lin Nuo picked up a long-handled wooden spoon and stirred slowly clockwise in order to make the peaches blend with the water as quickly as possible. After stirring for about 1 minute, she covered the pot with a transparent lid and stood aside to wait while the juice is boiling.
Bubbles bubbled up in the pot, and the sweet and sour smell came out of the air valve, lingering on the tip of Lin Nuo’s nose, and then spread to the entire work room.
Lin Nuo sniffed the smell and felt that it was almost done. She opened the lid and the heat rushed out of the pot. She hurriedly turned her head to let go of the steamy heat wave, then stirred it a few times with a wooden spoon, then picked up the sweetener she had prepared before and slowly poured it into the water.
This sweetener is from another brand. It tastes more like maltose than white sugar, with a mellow taste. After estimating the amount to be used, Lin Nuo squeezed out a full 1/3 of the sweetener, and then continued to stir it with a wooden spoon to avoid the trouble of sticking together.
This process requires patience. She cannot increase the firepower just because the cooking time is long. Lin Nuo opened the free music library in her brain and slowly simmered her peach jam to a gentle tune.
Lin Nuo was very attentive when doing things, and because she was in a peaceful world, she had even put down most of her vigilance against zombie attacks. So she didn’t realize that Gu Han was standing outside, observing her through the glass on the door.
From Gu Han’s perspective, he could only see Lin Nuo’s profile. The girl was concentrating on the contents of the pot. Her long eyelashes were slightly drooped, and the sunlight hit them and dyed them golden. The expression on the delicate face is gentle, and the slightly raised corners of the lips reveal the girl’s current good mood.
At this time, Lin Nuo was like a model in an oil painting, quiet, graceful, and so well-behaved that she seemed unreal. Gu Han didn’t know why, but he just felt that Lin Nuo was so unfamiliar, which made him feel unspeakably uncomfortable.
“Dong dong dong -”
The knock on the door broke the silence. Lin Nuo woke up from his concentration, looked up blankly, and waved to Gu Han after seeing Gu Han outside the door.
Seeing the girl’s expression suddenly become more alert, Gu Han secretly exhaled, and the discomfort just now disappeared instantly, as if the strangeness before was just his illusion.
“I’m not going in. I have to disinfect, first.” Gu Han used the hands-free intercom. “How long do you want? It’s almost lunch time.”
Lin Nuo looked down at the thick paste jam in the pot, scooped a little bit of it with the wooden spoon and put it into hrr mouth. She squinted and tasted it for a moment, and then answered loudly: “Come here, wait until I bottle it and bring it up for you to taste.”
“I know, I’ll settle Dizzy first.
Gu Han responded, took a deep look at Lin Nuo who was busy bottling the jam, turned around and left the studio.
As soon as the peach jam was served, Dizzy received a warm welcome, as did the freshly purified strawberries and the classic signature dish – scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
“Goddess of Light! I love you so much. What a divine taste is this! Guys, tell me, is this the work of a purification master? This level of purification food, I thought I could only eat it when I was about to die. If I eat it – I will die later, right?”
Lin Nuo was amused by Dizzy’s exaggeration and couldn’t stop laughing. She came back from the apocalypse, and her amusement level was so low that even she found it incredible.
Gu Han slapped away Dizzy’s hand that was reaching for the last strawberry, and quietly placed the plate next to Lin Nuo’s hand, and then asked slowly: “What happened to the goddess of light? Last time, wasn’t it still the God of Poseidon?”
Dizzy looked at the plump and juicy strawberry and replied absentmindedly: “The God of Poseidon is the past tense, and like Lisa, the God of Light is the new favorite – haven’t you seen the latest news? In a batch of information, the words God of Light and Goddess of Light are everywhere. After all, I am a man, so of course I have to choose the opposite sex to believe in. I guess she will give me the opportunity to meet more beautiful girls who are as passionate as Sunlight. ”
“Cough cough cough cough -”
Lin Nuo choked and coughed at Dizi’s words. God of Light and Goddess of Light, did the archeology community dig into the Western Fantasy library of some website?
Gu Han quickly stood up and poured water for Lin Nuo, but did not go up to pat her on the back. According to his limited experience of being choked, it is better to recover by herself. An inappropriate patting rhythm on the back can only be counterproductive.
Lin Nuo recovered quickly and felt a little embarrassed. After thanking Gu Han in a low voice, in order to ease the embarrassment, she decided to change the topic.
“Dizzy, you said you were a gypsy before?”
Dizzy shrugged and decided to eat another piece of bread with jam, ketchup on one side and peach jam on the other.
“I don’t know, but my grandmother said that we are gypsies, and she never said anything about missing anything – you see, she said that I was not good enough to go to college, but as a result, I didn’t even get into middle school. ”
Lin Nuo: emmmmmmm, I don’t think there is any causal connection between the two.
“As far as I know, your skin color… seems to be different from the legendary gypsies.”
“Spirit, madam, the spirit is the most important thing.” Dizzy took a bite of the bread and explained vaguely, “Gypsies are nomadic and we’ve been moving from planet to planet since my great-grandfather’s generation – so we are gypsies, don’t tell me ‘no’, I don’t want to hear it, this is my “The second belief.”
Lin Nuo blinked: “What about the first one?”
“Money. What else can it be?”
Lin Nuo: It makes sense. I can’t refute it.
The author has something to say: Dizzy jumped into his head on his own. I think it’s quite interesting. What about you?
