Chapter 406 Magical Lotus Root Starch
After tasting the black sesame paste and soy milk powder, Lin Yutang came to brew the last lotus root powder.
Why leave it to the end? Because brewing lotus root powder requires some little skills.
Lin Yutang poured three bags of lotus root powder into a large bowl. She took the original flavor of lotus root powder, which can best taste the uniqueness of lotus root powder.
Then, everyone saw that there was half a bowl of white powder in the bowl.
Xiaotang just said that lotus root powder is made from lotus roots. Now look at it, apart from the color which looks like lotus root, I really can't see any connection between it and lotus root.
Then I saw Lin Yutang actually picked up the cold water beside him and slowly poured it into the bowl of lotus root powder.
Huh? This lotus root starch needs to be brewed with cold water?
Use cold water. It is quite convenient. After all, you don’t have to boil a pot of boiling water.
It’s okay to eat in the summer, but it’s not very comfortable to eat cold in the autumn and winter, right?
Before anyone could ask, Lin Yutang poured cold water into the bowl, almost covering the lotus root powder, and then stopped and started stirring it with chopsticks.
The powder also melted and turned into half a bowl of turbid water.
"Is the lotus root starch ready?"
Cao Yang couldn't help but ask curiously.
"No, we need to add more water!"
Lin Yutang took the teapot with a smile and quickly poured the boiling water into the bowl. His other hand was not idle either, stirring it quickly, and then everyone saw a magical scene!
The small bowl of liquid that was turbid just now gradually became transparent after being stirred!
Oh my god, can I eat lotus root powder and watch a magic show for free?
"This is how you have to brew lotus root powder every time. Although it's a little troublesome, if you pour boiling water directly into it, there's a chance it won't be successful."
Lin Yutang saw that everyone's mouths were open in surprise, almost enough to fit an egg.
In my previous life, I was sometimes lazy and boiled a pot of water and brewed it directly, and there was a high probability that I would only get a bowl of lotus root powder water. But then I listened to my sister's advice and decided that if the lotus root powder didn't work, I could just put it in the microwave and heat it up.
She had tried it and it indeed worked, but Uncle Cao and his crew didn't have a microwave on their boat, so it was better to use the safest method.
Lin Yutang and Lin Zhi distributed some of the prepared lotus root starch to everyone, and Lin Yutang continued:
"If you don't want to have milk lumps on the soy milk powder, you can also brew it the same way you brew lotus root powder. Dissolve it in cold water first, then add hot water and brew it, and there won't be those milk lumps."
Everyone took note, but a few didn't care. The sticky milk lumps were delicious! They were the soul of soy milk powder!
After the lotus root powder was distributed, everyone picked up their small cups and started eating.
The light pink lotus root powder looks very pleasing to the eye. When you scoop it with a spoon and put it into your mouth, you can feel the slippery texture of the lotus root powder and the light sweetness of the lotus root powder itself.
"My daughter would love this. It's like a little dessert."
Someone took a bite and gave it a positive review instantly.
“The slippery ones are pretty good, but I feel like I can’t be full even if I eat a big bowl, hahahahaha.”
Everyone laughed and chatted, then reported the quantities they wanted, and Shopkeeper Tong carefully wrote them down one by one.
However, Lin Yutang also discovered that the quantity of lotus root powder they ordered was not as much as that of black sesame paste and soy milk powder. After all, the slippery texture of lotus root powder is not liked by everyone, so it is not as widely accepted as black sesame paste and soy milk powder.
After tasting the three items, everyone left the staff lounge and continued with the large-scale purchasing process.
"Huh? Is that a banana? Why does it look so weird?"
Yu Jie suddenly noticed several bananas in the basket of a customer passing by. He took a quick glance and felt that the bananas looked a little strange.
The sizes seemed to be quite similar, and each of them lived in a luxurious single room - each one was wrapped tightly in a transparent bag.
After hearing what he said, Linzhi followed his gaze to look at the customer's shopping basket, then went to the side and got an identical "banana".
"Uncle, is this what you just saw?"
Linzhi handed the "banana" in her hand to him, and Yu Jie exclaimed, "It is it, it is it, it is it."
I excitedly reached out to take this unique little banana. Oh, the weight is not right, it is quite light.
Oh, no? He moved his fingers. Why is this banana so soft?
I took a closer look and realized that this was not a real banana at all!
