Chapter 580 Preparation time before the dinner (1)
In the afternoon, the island on the training ground.
Because the number of people in the fleet has increased again, and people from Donghuang and the Royal Family will be coming, even placing so many people in the villa area is still too cramped.
However, Yang Sikang had been prepared for this situation. Since the construction of the military base on the island was completed, the ground part that had not been significantly modified has been idle.
But Yang Sikang had no idea of building any large buildings on the ground, so he simply used the place in advance.
A fairly spacious site has been organized not too far from the seaside, but at a distance that will not be disturbed even by high tide, and there is an independently powered building used as a kitchen.
The fence controlled by the circuit is usually raised to protect this area, and when necessary, it is hidden under the floor tiles of this place that is almost a square.
Since that time, Yang Sikang and his friends have intentionally raised some animals on this island, such as chickens, sheep and so on.
Some edible plants were also sown, such as onions, ginger, and fungi.
The maids were already purchasing when Yang Sikang was building it. When they came to the island after the construction was completed, the maids had already prepared tea and snacks and made a lot of preparations.
The time-consuming and laborious preparation stage before cooking has been solved by the maids in advance, so there is a lot less work to do in the entire cooking process.
Moreover, the maids were not the only ones helping Yang Sikang today.
Yang Sikang was sitting on a chair, holding a branch in one hand and a knife in the other.
Cut a suitable size piece of wood from the branch, trim it slightly with a knife to remove the bark and adjust any irregular edges.
Soon, a log piece appeared in his hand.
It is about two to three millimeters thick and about the size of a coin.
Then wrap a layer of cotton on the outside of the wood chips, and then wrap it with a piece of cloth.
The rooster they caught in Minneapolis was being dumped and bled into a basin. Yang Sikang picked out some feathers of suitable size and beautiful color from the rooster, plucked them out, and then simply cleaned the roots of the feathers. Then use needle and thread to thread all the feathers into a string from the base of the feathers.
Then roll up this string of feathers, fix it with needle and thread, combine it with the base you just made, and fix it completely with needle and thread.
In this way, a feather shuttlecock is completed!
After casually weighing it in his hand for a few times, Yang Sikang nodded with satisfaction.
"It's not bad. Although it was made temporarily, it's okay."
Yang Sikang smiled and handed the shuttlecock to the archer fish who had been waiting for a long time. The children immediately ran away.
On the other side of Yang Sikang, Song Snapper was seriously doing another shuttlecock.
"Commander, what do you think of this?"
Dafeng trotted over from the kitchen happily, with thin slices of a variety of vegetables of even thickness and size neatly stacked on the plate in his hand.
The vegetable slices are about the same size and thickness and arranged in a circle along the plate.
Because the colors are different, they look quite beautiful.
"Well, it's pretty good. Dafeng, your knife skills are getting better and better."
Yang Sikang praised seriously.
Dafeng's original cooking skills were not bad, but if anyone said that he was more advanced than Donghuang in knife skills, it would make people laugh to death.
Some Donghuang dishes often put people off during the ingredient preparation stage, and a large part of the reason lies in the knife skills.
After learning a lot from Yang Sikang and practicing repeatedly, although Dafeng is still not able to skillfully cut tofu shreds that can pass a needle, he can cut different vegetables into the same vaguely light-transmitting pieces. Thin slices have been able to do it.
"Just right, I'll use these vegetable slices to make a simple vegan dish later."
"Yes! Then I'll take these back~"
Dafeng said happily that she originally cut these to show Yang Sikang the results of her practice, but Yang Sikang didn't want to waste the materials cut by Dafeng just by looking at them.
Simple doesn't mean it doesn't taste good, and vegan dishes can be great if cooked correctly.
"commander."
Yang Sikang turned his head and saw a completed shuttlecock in his hand.
After checking it carefully, Yang Sikang smiled and touched the bream's head.
“Excellent job, what a great job with the pine bream.”
The snapper smiled happily, but still seemed a little shy when he heard the compliment.
Yang Sikang looked at the time and then looked at the people over there who were trying hard to kick the shuttlecock.
Needless to say, Javelin, Santiago, Big Mackerel, and Archerfish, but Baltimore, Fog City, and even Fearless and Essex were all interested in shuttlecock, which he didn't expect at all.
Originally, he had an impromptu idea of shuttlecock. He happened to see the chicken they brought back from Minneapolis and thought of making it for fun.
Unexpectedly, this Donghuang child's gadget was very popular among his ship girls.
But as he watched, Santiago caught the shuttlecock he threw up with great momentum, and successfully kicked the shuttlecock for the second time. He cheered with joy, but the next second the shuttlecock fell directly and hit her on the head. .
"Fortunately, no metal pieces were used."
Yang Sikang smiled and shook his head.
“Even Janus participated in the shuttlecock kicking activity. Everyone likes this activity very much.”
Dafeng sighed from the side.
Yang Sikang didn't ask Dafeng why he didn't go to play. After all, Chongying was close to Donghuang and they also had shuttlecocks.
"It's a good thing that they like to play. After all, they have nothing to do while preparing the food."
Yang Sikang smiled, talked to Song Hai and walked to the kitchen.
After all, he had to cook the main course of the dinner himself, and while chatting with the ship girls while making shuttlecocks, he also had some ideas for other dishes.
Although it is on an island, the underground foundation here was originally used as a commonly used research institute, and some common ingredients are reserved.
And this time it was something that had been explained a few days in advance, so the preparations were of course extremely sufficient.
What's more, it's not very far from the port area.
Not long after Yang Sikang entered the kitchen, the royal fleet had arrived at the small port on the island in advance.
Belfast and King George V went to greet Yang Sikang instead, and naturally a few of the maids around Yang Sikang were transferred there.
Dafeng happily took advantage of the situation and started to attack Yang Sikang from the side.
"Commander, what do you want to do first?"
When Yang Sikang heard this question, he started thinking.
"Meat is better cooked later. It's best to eat it when it's fresh out of the pot. However, the royal family arrived much earlier than scheduled. Let me think about it..."
Yang Sikang looked around in the kitchen and soon noticed an inconspicuous vat.
There are shrimps in it, lots of shrimps.
