Chapter 105: New Eating Habits

n the phone""How did you get here"Yang Jun frowned."Can I not come That woman even resorted to threats. If I don't come, my son's future will be ruined."Puerli, enraged and flustered, couldn't hide he...Ripples dropped the corn kernels into a leather pouch and then smiled, saying:

"Chief, get me a covered stone pot and some honey. Also, a piece of fat pork. I'm going to make a snack for the youngsters to try. You can have the females come over to help me."

The chieftain understood that Ripples' words meant allowing them to learn the crafting methods, so he immediately agreed and said:

"Okay, I'll have Chang arrange it. What else do you need"

"Please ask Chang to collect as many of these old candy pellets as possible."

"I'll be right there."

He replied with a grunt and then turned to leave the cave again.

Ripple, carrying the supplies prepared by the Chieftain, began making snacks in a corner of the Bear Clan's spacious plaza.

She first rendered the fat pork, skimmed off the lard, then sprinkled a little salt on the residue and passed it to the cubs who had gathered around. These little fellows, each taking a bite, ate with gusto. When they finished, their eyes lingered hopefully on the stone pot.

There was a male cub who, because he ate something delicious, couldn't control himself and directly transformed into a white bear. He was so cute and silly that Lian Yi was incredibly rare. She directly hugged the little guy in her arms and stroked him, and even tempted the little guy:

"Be a good girl and stay with Ripples sister for a while, sister made delicious food, the first one for you to eat!"

Upon hearing this, the little guy stopped struggling and stared intently at the stone pot with drool dripping from his mouth.

All the females around smiled when they saw it.

After pouring out the refined oil, ripples directed alone to take away a matchstick, making the fire smaller. Then, he poured the yellowed corn kernels into the stone pot. Since the stone pot had just been used to refine pork lard, the corn kernels did not stick after being poured in.

Then, using only a wooden shovel, continuously stir to ensure each corn kernel is coated in oil and heated evenly.

When the kernels of corn were plump and started to pop, the cubs would all gasp in awe. Then ripple let him add a spoonful of honey into the stone pot, stirring it continuously to coat the slightly whitish corn kernels with the melted honey. Finally, she placed a stone slab directly on top of the pot.

The sizzling sound from the stone pot never stopped, accompanied by a sweet, caramelized scent of honey, which attracted more young ones.

After the sizzling sound stopped, Lian slowly lifted the stone slab covering the cooking pot. White rice grains flowed out of the pot, one by one.

Ripple grabbed a few grains and, after tasting them herself to make sure they were alright, she blew one covered in lots of honey onto the mouth of her little white bear cub.

The little panda ate one and thought it tasted good. It licked its mouth happily, then wagged its little butt and went to compete with its friends for more. The ripples petted the little panda again and let him go to grab some food.

In a short while, all the cornflowers were swept clean. The females also liked this way of eating, crispy and sweet, suitable for young cubs to grind their teeth. Those who hadn't had enough started to cuddle and beg their mothers for more.

The females were helpless and could only turn to Ripple for help. Ripple nodded to Jotaro, letting him make another pot.

At this time, Chang brought over a bag of corn kernels, placing the contents on the ground. His partner then laughed and stuffed two white corn flowers into his mouth, letting him taste something fresh.

"It tastes good, still sweet. Was this made with old candy sticks"

Ask your own partner.

"Well, it was those two who made it. The cubs all liked to eat it."

Have you all learned how to do it

"Okay, Lily explained it very carefully. We'll understand it now."

Ripple stepped forward, pouring half a bag of corn kernels into a thick and heavy stone pot. Then she handed a stone hammer to Chang, asking him to crush the kernels as much as possible. The finer, the better. She trusted the strength of the Bear Clan beastmen.

Chang, without any hesitation, began to pound the corn kernels vigorously as instructed by the ripples. It took a while because they had been stored for a long time.

Then, Ripples immediately asked Chang's companion for a piece of hemp cloth and had Tai go find a wooden stake. He dug out two rings, large and small, placed the hemp cloth on the large ring, and used the small ring to secure it, creating a simple sieve.

Then she told Chang to stop, poured the crushed corn kernels from the stone mortar onto a sieve, and began shaking it at a certain frequency. Some of the finer cornmeal sifted through, and she then returned the uncrushed kernels to the stone mortar for Chang to continue processing.

The sifted cornmeal was still somewhat coarse, but for orcs it was already fine. Ripples directly took the boiling water, added some salt to it, and then began to knead the cornmeal. This amazed the female onlookers because they had never done this before.

They watched as the powder in the stone pot, with the blending and swirling of the water, transformed into one bouncy dough ball after another.

Put the dough into a stone pot, then cover it with a lid to let the cornmeal dough ferment for a while, which will make it more fluffy.

Then, she steamed a pot of rice dumplings with the corn dough. While the potato and meat stew was cooking, she stuck some corn cakes onto the sides of the clay pot. As for the remaining cornmeal, she simply added water and cooked it into a large pot of corn porridge.

At this moment, the sun was setting. The unique fragrance of ripe corn wafted from one corner of the square. The surrounding females took turns tasting the food they had made and immediately fell in love with this way of eating. They couldn't wait for the sweet sticks to become old now. They wondered why they hadn't thought of doing this before!

Liàn Yī gave herself a few corn dumplings, a bowl of potato stew with meat plus some corn flatbread, and a small bowl of corn porridge. She ate until she was full, then went back to rest.

The next day, Ripples was called back to the chief's tent. Yesterday's dinner had been truly delicious and filling. Male orcs have large appetites, and meals made with corn kernels are a great way to save meat, especially during rainy and cold seasons, as they can help them last longer.

"Licorice sticks can be found everywhere in our bear territory, but we've never discovered they could be eaten this way. You are the messenger sent by the Beast God, and also our guiding light. (Here three hundred words of praise are omitted)."

"Chief, rest assured, I will tell you how to store candy sticks and some methods for preserving meat for a long time."

Ripple wastes no time, getting straight to the point.

The chieftain was just waiting for those words. Upon hearing them, a smile broke out on his face. He immediately said:

Okay! Okay! Okay! You need anything, just ask!

"Let Tai take me around the bear clan's territory and see if we can find any new food."

"Sure, that's no problem at all."

The chieftain replied with a chuckle.

As long as the food is found within the bear clan's territory, they naturally get it first. Plus, it offers another item for trading, which the chieftain would be a million percent happy about.

Liàn Yī has always been a doer. After exchanging tips with Chāng on drying and storing sweets, she followed Tái to find new food under his lead.y, he has many people with him, it's not easy to get close. We can't protect you."Both were afraid that Ripple would strike again, so they took the initiative and acted as if they were protecting her,...
