She nodded her head with certainty.
“Don’t worry, Aunt Hongguo, we can do it.
The strips of at we’re cutting right now are too small.
Once Yuanyuan and the others find the right materials, I’ll teach everyone how to weave bamboo stears, and then we can make bigger pieces of at!”
Aunt Hongguo breathed a sigh of relief.
There was plenty of wood, and the fire was burning brightly, plus the at strips were cut rather fine.
So, the first batch of smoked at was done!
The hardness to the touch, the strong flavor of smoke and fire, weren’t they just like the smoked at they had seen before?
Relieved, Su Tang broke into a smile.
Looking at Aunt Hongguo and Rin, she exclaid excitedly, “We did it!
We’ve made smoked at!
We succeeded!”
Upon hearing this, Rin walked over joyfully and picked up a strip of at.
The strip of at was only as thick as two of Rin’s fingers, and even smaller than his palm!
He couldn’t wait to put it in his mouth and chew it.
Su Tang didn’t even have ti to stop him!
The smoked at still had salt frost on its surface.
It needed to be washed before eating, and it should be boiled in water or roasted to soften it before eating!
Although this batch of smoked at just ca out and wasn’t too hard, just seeing the layer of salt frost on the surface made Su Tang find it too salty!
She cautiously looked at Rin and asked softly, “Uncle?
Want to take a sip of water?”
Rin nodded very satisfactorily, “Hmm!
The taste is good!
It’s quite chewy!
Delicious!
But a little salty!”
Su Tang couldn’t help but smile wryly, “Uncle, the extra salt is to ensure that these strips of at won’t rot.
We have to wash them before eating in the future!”
Rin gave a few hearty laughs, looking more like Xiongda and Xionger!
Aunt Hongguo also excitedly told everyone, “Alright, don’t just stand there, continue smoking and roasting the at strips according to what Tangtang just taught us!”
The first batch of smoked at wasn’t much, only enough to fill less than a basket, but knowing the thod now, it was much easier to keep going!
After smoking and roasting six more baskets of smoked at, they finally stopped despite wanting to continue.
There was still plenty of at, but the salt used for marinating was gone…
“Oh no…
We ran out of salt so quickly, hurry, hurry, bring the salt back!”
Huang Guo was energetic.
She couldn’t weave baskets or mold mud embryos.
Aunt Hongguo didn’t want her to go outside and cause trouble, nor allowed her to collect things.
This was sothing she could help with and enjoyed doing, but it was halted before long, why?
Su Tang smiled faintly, “That’s my oversight.
It’s not that easy to make salt.
We’ll bring all the extra pottery to the seaside to store more salt.
After that, we’ll make smoked at!
Let’s not go hunting in the next two days, and eat the at we’ve got.”
Rin thought for a mont and agreed, “Alright, I’ll arrange for them to chop down trees.
Don’t we need wood to make charcoal as well?
Let them chop more!”
Su Tang: “That’s good, but rember, when cutting down trees, cut down one and leave one.
Don’t focus on one area only.”
“Hmm, don’t worry!
We know what to do!”
Huang Guo ca over with a curious look, “Tangtang, what is this charcoal you just ntioned?
Is it delicious?”
Qing Guo laughed behind her, “You, how co everything you think of has to be about food?
You’re just like Yuanyuan!”
Su Tang blinked her eyes.
