Chapter 94 Black Melon Processing

Milu thinks about the manufacture of chocolate. In his memory, chocolate is the large pod produced on the cocoa tree, which is fermented after the pulp is fermented to affect the beans, making the beans produce complex flavor precursors and removing most of the astringency.After the pulp is removed and the cocoa beans are taken out, the cocoa beans are further roasted and fermented to transform the flavor precursors into various flavors. The roasted cocoa beans must be broken to remove the kernels.

Then the seeds are ground and refined. In the early days, tools similar to stone mills with grooves on the contact surface were used for repeated rolling to crush the seeds finely and release cocoa butter. At the same time, other solid components can not be felt by the tongue. It is granular, so the mixture of cocoa butter and broken into fine particles is called cocoa pulp. It is not sweet, not smooth enough, and full of bitterness, but it has many complex aromas.

Milu stretched out a finger to dip some cocoa liquid leaked from the black melon, licked it, and tasted it carefully. Fruity, floral, and even wine aromas, the complex flavors that are difficult to describe, are better than raw cocoa beans that have not been processed, but they lack layers and the flavor of the Mena reaction during the roasting process.

After all, this is directly skipping the processing stages of a bunch of large pods to milling, and it is directly cocoa pulp.

After thinking about it, Miru used a shelf to support the black melon that was still slowly dripping cocoa syrup, and let Ufa do what he wanted to do, while he took a single-handled milk pot and poured some cocoa syrup into it, and then proceeded Heat over direct heat.

Milu knew that the oil layer would be easily separated when chocolate was heated directly. It was because the temperature rose too quickly in a short period of time. Usually, the safer method of heating the chocolate block was melted, but what he wanted now was the flavor of baking. The current cocoa mass is not the final chocolate block obtained after processing. Without the seed shell, the baking process is missing. We have to try to heat the cocoa mass with rapid stirring under a low heat, and test to see what it will taste like.

Perhaps next time before removing the cocoa liquid, the black melon should be rolled in the pan to give a baked effect?

Milu took a spoon and vigorously stirred the small pot of cocoa syrup so that it could be heated evenly. While stirring, his nose moved, and a strong fragrance came out from the pot. Milu immediately removed from the fire and continued to stir.

In order to avoid overheating, Milu took another sip after cooling it to a thick consistency with water, and his eyes lit up. This method is effective!The cocoa pulp heated directly is very fragrant!

But the time and heating temperature must be controlled. Milu thinks there should be an easier method, that is to roll and heat the black melon directly in a dry pan, just do it, anyway, there are [-] black melons.

This time Milu put another melon on the big Chinese frying pan. In order to prevent the black melon from being burnt, he asked Ufa to help him find a pile of small round stones at the corpse beach. He planned to fry the chestnuts with sugar. Let's fry that melon.

A large Chinese frying pan is half filled with small round stones, and a melon is placed on it. Milu picks up a shovel and fry...it can't be fried at all, it's so heavy!

Looking at Ufa sadly, he asked him to help fry black melons.

"No need to cut it?" Ufa looked at the big black melon in the big frying pan and raised his eyebrows slightly to express his doubts.

"No, just let him roll in the small stone to heat up."

Bagh, who came to see what his two sons were doing because the strange smell spread to his family, saw Ufa frying a big black melon with a stone as soon as he entered the door, he was at a loss.

"This thing seems to be a black melon I saw in a sunny meadow in the Warcraft Forest, but this melon is inedible! It's full of bitter water, sour and astringent!"

I have to say the truth about Bagh. In the early days, cocoa pulp was indeed called "bitter water" by people in a certain area.However, Miru heard the important point, there are black melons in a sunny place in the World of Warcraft Forest!
