Su Xiaoqi has been looking forward to this for a long time.
The audience had already seen that Su Xiaoqi's eyes were shining, and everyone laughed.
"Xiao Qi is so greedy, hahahaha!"
"What a cute little Qi, even a girl like me is so excited!"
"I'm a lesbian. I like Xiaoqi like this. I really want to fall in love with Xiaoqi!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Xiaoqi, stop following the capitalist Ye Han. Come to me and I'll sell my blood to make money for you."
"Hurry up and start making chocolate. I can't wait. I'm making Ye Han's same chocolate at home!"
............
In fact, there are people who insist on making things with Ye Han.
Whatever Ye Han does on the island, everyone does.
For example, the homemade milk tea I made last time was relatively simple, and many people succeeded. Then they posted it online and received a lot of likes and comments.
When it comes to likes, it's really amazing.
People who post things often hope to get more likes. When they see someone like them, they will be very happy and feel recognized.
There is a saying that goes well, if a person never likes you, then he definitely doesn’t like you.
The premise is that he can check Moments, because there are some people who basically do not check Moments, so they are not included.
This time, when Ye Han discovered cocoa nuts and proposed making chocolate, someone had already purchased some cocoa nuts online and wanted to make chocolate with Ye Han.
When Ye Han is fermenting, they are also fermenting, keeping in sync with Ye Han.
After having lunch, Ye Han and Su Xiaoqi had moved out clay pots one by one from the wooden house, which were filled with cocoa beans that had been fermented in the past few days.
When the jar was opened, Ye Han and Su Xiaoqi's expressions were a little subtle.
To be honest, the smell is very unpleasant.
Of course, since they were on the island, the situation was better.
When the wind blows, the smell will dissipate.
Many of the audience were indoors, and they followed Ye Han and opened their own fermented cocoa beans.
Then the whole house was filled with a strange smell.
It's sour, smelly, and very addictive.
Lao Ba said it was so satisfying...
"The next step is to dry the cocoa beans in the sun."
"Xiao Qi, look, the cocoa beans are now brown, which proves that the fermentation has been successful."
"It probably needs to dry for two or three days."
Ye Han said to Su Xiaoqi.
Two or three days?
Su Xiaoqi slapped her forehead, which means we have to wait for two or three days!
"Ahem, if you have an oven, you can dry it directly in the oven."
"If you want to use fire to dry it yourself, you can actually do it. It's just that the heat is difficult to control."
Ye Han said to Su Xiaoqi.
Then he realized that he had said nonsense at the end.
When it comes to controlling the heat, Su Xiaoqi is definitely the number one person on this island.
Even if she is not on the island, her level is still far ahead of others.
Because she is professional.
"Use fire, I'm anxious to eat chocolate!"
Su Xiaoqi didn't want to wait for two days.
Therefore, she advocated using fire and handling it herself.
Ye Han spread his hands, what else could he say, just start lighting the fire quickly.
"I'm a little hesitant now whether to follow them or not."
"It's you! The one who made wine with durian last time, didn't you say that the neighbor was going to come and beat you? What's next?"
"This time the neighbor is probably coming again. The neighbor said, thank you."
"Huh? Listen to me and say thank you. Thank you for having you and warming the four seasons?"
"Why can you make a voice call? I don't want to hear this song. Turn it off. Turn it off!"
"I have an oven at home and I have prepared it for a long time. Now I am starting to roast the cocoa beans in the oven."
"Come on, come on, I have a hunch that I will succeed this time. I will make chocolate with Ye Han. Although I don't have an oven, I have a pot. Like Xiao Qi, I want to use the pot to dry the cocoa beans!
"
...........
The audience in the live broadcast room all followed suit.
Needless to say, the smell of fermentation is indeed unpleasant.
But for the sake of chocolate, I endured it!
Ye Han and Su Xiaoqi lit a fire, poured the fermented cocoa beans into the pot, and Su Xiaoqi began to stir-fry and heat them evenly.
Suddenly, the smell became stronger. Ye Han felt the wind direction and silently moved to the upwind.
But even so, the smell cannot be completely avoided.
Su Xiaoqi was fine. As long as she thought about chocolate, she could tolerate it.
She even once cooked canned herrings...
Of course, the canned herring was not what Ye Han wanted. It happened a few years ago. At that time, Su Xiaoqi had not eaten for several days and could only drink a few sips of water.
As the temperature increased, the audience also saw that the fermented substances on the surface of the cocoa beans gradually evaporated, leaving only the brown cocoa beans.
"There are no temperature or time requirements for this process. You just need to roast the cocoa beans until they are crispy, but not mushy."
"It's not difficult for me. There's no need to wait two or three days to dry."
Su Xiaoqi said to Ye Han while weighing the pot.
There were a lot of cocoa beans in the pot. When she raised her arm, the cocoa beans in the pot flew up, and then they all returned to the pot without missing a single one.
Ye Han applauded wildly beside him and shouted 666 to Su Xiaoqi.
"Oh, okay, okay, your clapping makes my ears hurt."
"Your hand doesn't hurt!"
Su Xiaoqi rolled her eyes at Ye Han. Ye Han deliberately slapped Su Xiaoqi's ear, which was very bad.
"It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt. If you applaud our little Qi, how can you complain that your hands hurt?"
Ye Han said with a wicked smile.
"Smelly and shameless."
Su Xiaoqi's face turned red, she ignored Ye Han and continued to stir-fry the cocoa beans in the pot.
She was quite careful, always paying attention, for fear that the cocoa beans in the pot would get burnt.
This is all we have discovered for now. If we fail, we may not be able to find more cocoa fruits in a short time.
Wouldn't that just delay eating chocolate? That's not okay.
As Su Xiaoqi stir-fried, gradually, the taste coming out of the pot also changed.
It was sour and smelly at first, but gradually turned into a fragrance with a bitter taste.
It seems to be almost healed!
After doing it for such a long time, Su Xiaoqi also felt a little sore.
Then, she took out a cocoa bean from the pot. It was still a little hot, and she pinched it with two fingers. It made a crisp sound, and the outer shell was crushed by her.
"It should be almost done. It's been almost two hours. I'm exhausted."
Su Xiaoqi shook her hand and nodded.
Now that drying is complete, you can proceed to the next step.
The cocoa beans are still a bit hot to the touch at the moment, so you need to let them sit for a while before handling them.
Ye Han brought another pot over, and after the cocoa beans cooled down a bit, the two of them began to crush the shells of the cocoa beans. This process was very relaxing.
Listening to the crisp sound, many viewers were eager to try it, and began to regret that they did not make chocolate with Ye Han and Su Xiaoqi.
Of course, it’s not too late to start now, people have already started placing orders to buy cocoa fruits.
Making it yourself is fun on the one hand, and cleaner on the other hand, making it safer to eat.
Soon, Ye Han and Su Xiaoqi peeled all the cocoa beans and put them in a pot.
