Rice pounding is a very ancient and practical agricultural production activity, and its history can even be traced back to the early days of human civilization.

It was born from the earliest farming era of the early germination of human civilization, and it was passed down in Yan Kingdom for thousands of years. It was not until the emergence of modern and modern mechanical processing that it gradually replaced this ancient agricultural production activity.

But even so, this ancient skill can still be seen in the vast rural areas of Yan Kingdom.

Chong, the pronunciation of Chong, means to put things in a stone mortar or mortar and use a pestle to mash them.

This is an ancient hieroglyph with a mortar character at the bottom, while the upper part is in bronze inscriptions and small seal scripts. They are two people holding a pestle, vividly expressing the meaning of this character.

After understanding the meaning of this word, it is very simple to restore this ancient agricultural production activity.

Find a container that is strong enough, put the rice in it, and then use a heavy object to pound it continuously until all the rice husks are broken and the rice grains are exposed, and the rice pounds are completed.

In the vast rural areas, this container is usually made of stone mortars. What is more primitive and ancient is to burn a pit with a tree stump.

As for the tools used to pound, wood, stone and metal, as long as they are heavy enough to mash the rice husks.

The method Chen Xin used was to make a large bowl and a metal rod with metal material, then put the rice into the bowl and pound it with the metal rod.

Because the rice was not dried, he did not pound all the rice, but just processed a little to cook. It was enough to pound the rice with a large bowl.

Putting the golden rice into a bowl and pounding it hard with a metal rod one by one, watching the rice shells gradually break, revealing the light brown rice grains inside is something that can feel the joy of labor.

Especially since these rice are not dried, they also emit a faint fragrance, which makes people feel more happy and makes Chen Xin look forward to tasting the rice he planted himself.

Since Chen Xin only pounded a bowl of rice, he had already pounded the rice without spending much time.

However, the rice and bran have not yet separated at this time, and they obviously cannot be cooked directly when mixed together. They need to be screened again and separate the rice and bran.

The most traditional method that Chen Xin knew was to use a flat basket to sif the pounded rice bran mixture together? The rice grains are heavier? After sifting, they will fall back into the basket under the action of gravity potential energy, and because the bran or grain is relatively light, they will be blown away by the wind during the sifting process.

And the dust mixed in the rice grains will fall along the gaps in the flat basket? In the end, only clean rice grains will be left.

However, Chen Xinshu didn't have a flat basket on him at this time, so he couldn't make one by himself? Because the flat basket was made of bamboo strips, where can I find bamboo in the end of the world?

If you use metal materials, then you are just suffering? How much effort does it take to sifte a flat iron basket?

So at this time, we need to use some more modern means.

Sieve rice itself is a very classic and simple application of physics knowledge. Although the ancestors who did this may not be able to understand the physics principles contained in it? It does not prevent them from doing so.

And knowing that the principle of sifting rice is to use the difference in weight between rice grains and grains? Use the wind to take away the bran and grains, and then things will be easier.

Chen Xin only needs to make a blower, blow the mixture of rice and bran with a blower, and blow the bran inside out.

Blowers are not difficult to make, especially when separating bran and rice, it does not require too much wind. Even electric fans or hand-crank blowers can do this job.

Using the help of the system, a hand-crank blower is made on the workbench? A funnel is installed at the air outlet of the blower and a hole is made on one side of the funnel. This facilitates the separation of brans, and Chen Xin can easily obtain clean rice grains.

He carefully collected the chaff he had blown out in a small bag? He put the light brown rice grains in a bowl? Chen Xin could not wait to taste its taste.

Clean the rice grains with water? Put them in an iron pot, add an appropriate amount of water and cook them together, and the rest is just waiting for the rice to be cooked.

While waiting for the rice to be cooked, in order to celebrate today's harvest, Chen Xin specially went to the food pantry to cut some Jinhua ham and Iberian ham, and took a cabbage, as well as canned pork and canned tuna.

Iberian ham is a raw ham. The best way to eat it is to cut it and eat it raw directly.

Although you can also use it to make salads or bread and fruits, or use it to make soup and other hot dishes, the former has no conditions and the latter is too wasteful.

So Chen Xin just cut a few slices and planned to use them to match the rice.

Jinhua ham can be used in a wide range of applications. It can be used to stir-fry cabbage, stew soup, or even spread it on rice and stew it together, which is an excellent delicacy.

Therefore, when dealing with Jinhua ham, Chen Xin cut half of the ham he cut into thin slices to put it on the rice, while the remaining half was cut into pieces and planned to stir-fry cabbage.

As for canned pork and canned tuna, this is just a simple side dish after heating.

Humming a pleasant tune and cutting cabbage, Chen Xin felt that he had found the joy of cooking for a long time.

Being able to take the chef certificate as a non-professional chef is enough to prove that Chen Xin really likes cooking, but his lack of ingredients after the end of the world caused him to be unable to display his cooking skills and could only eat ready-made food. This really made him feel like cooking for too long.

Although there are still only a few simple ingredients, you can already make up one or two dishes.

Compared with the shelter food that is simply seasoned, the meal he is preparing is equally simple, but the taste and the sense of happiness and satisfaction it brings are completely different.

The former is just to fill your stomach, while the latter brings real enjoyment of food.

In this extremely cold and dark end of the world, it is a very luxurious act to be able to enjoy the joy brought by real food.

But it has to be said that rich food in many construction games can enhance people's happiness and increase the morale of the Warriors. This is really reasonable and very reasonable.

Eating full and eating well can indeed make people feel great happiness and satisfaction.

When Chen Xin added Jinhua ham to the rice and exuded a strong fragrance as the rice gradually matured, Chen Xin swallowed his saliva while gaining the deepest experience.
