Chapter 266 Steamed wine

Looking at the few people in front of the camera drinking peach blossom wine bowl after bowl, the audience in the live broadcast room was talking.

"Is there anything else that Brother Yi can't do?"

"It's okay to make some rice wine? Every household here can make it."

"It's not a good thing to drink homemade wine!"

"Looking at the needle, it would be great if I could taste it."

"Does there any Hakka people tell me that Hakka rice wine is really so delicious? If it is really delicious, I can place an order."

"I am a Hakka! I have been drinking rice wine since I was a child, and I have never been tired of it, and it is also very good for the body.

However, we drink homemade rice wine, and we rarely buy rice wine sold outside. However, you can try Xiaogan’s Shenglong rice wine, which produces rice wine that is close to the taste of the beverage, and even those who don’t drink can accept it.”

Liu Yifei could also see the barrage in the live broadcast room. When someone mentioned raw dragon rice wine, he nodded and said, "Raw dragon rice wine is really delicious. I have also drunk a bite of rice wine from its house. It is sweet and very appetizing."

Hearing her words, Zhao Jinmai glanced at her, suddenly pointed at her and asked, "Sister Yifei, why are your face so red?"

Liu Yifei was drinking rice wine, but was stunned when she heard this: "Is there any?"

"Yes! Are you drunk? It seems like you're in the face."

Zhao Jinmai took out his cell phone, turned on the camera as a mirror, and looked at her.

Liu Yifei looked at herself in the mirror and found that her cheeks were indeed a little flushed, as if she had drunk too much wine.

"Hey? I didn't drink much?"

She was a little confused.

"How many bowls have you drunk?" Li Yi asked her.

“This is the third bowl.”

Liu Yifei picked up the bowl in her hand and signaled.

Li Yi looked at it and there was only one bottom left in the bowl.

"You're drinking too fast, don't drink it."

Li Yi took her bowl and explained: "Three bowls are equivalent to a bottle of beer. You drink so quickly, of course you will soon get into it."

"I didn't even feel it."

Liu Yifei looked at the bottom of the bowl. This was the first time she felt unsatisfied about drinking.

"belch!"

Wu Lei burped.

He didn't say anything, but he drank four bowls in one breath.

"Don't drink anymore, what if you're drunk for a while?"

Li Yi took the steamer and the Tiandi pot beside him and handed it to him, "Wash all these, let's try to steam some wine."

Then he went to the storage room to get another can of peach blossoms. With the help of Liu Yifei and Zhao Jinmai, he poured out the original slurry of the wine.

After pouring a full basin of wine, Wu Lei also washed the steamer and the Tiandi pot.

He took the floor pot from his hand, Li Yi put the floor pot on the stove, and then poured the wine from the basin into the floor pot.

Then, he buckled the steamer barrel with his small head facing up, and then inserted the wine tube below into the hole left on the side of the steamer barrel, with the gaskets on both sides tightly sewn.

There is a funnel for receiving wine on the inside of the wine outlet tube. Li Yi adjusted it to the center of the steamer barrel and then put the Tianguo on it.

"Go and bring the ice in the refrigerator."

Li Yi turned on the stove and ordered Wu Lei.

Soon, Wu Lei brought a whole bag of frozen hard ice.

Li Yi had already added half a pot of cold water to the sky pot. Seeing that Wu Lei had brought the ice cubes, Li Yi asked him to put the ice cubes into the sky pot.

Liu Yifei and Zhao Jinmai were both watching curiously. They wanted to know how to steam high-altitude wine with such a simple tool.

After setting up the Tianguo, Li Yi brought some gauze, soaked it in water, and stuffed it in the place where the steamer bucket and the Tianguo and Earth pot came into contact, blocking all gaps and keeping it sealed.

Then he took a few prepared glass beakers, placed them next to the wine outlet, and waited quietly.

In the live broadcast room, it was the first time that many viewers saw someone using this traditional tool to steam wine, and they were curiously discussing it in the barrage area.

"Can this tool look a bit rough?"

"Why does it feel like steamed buns?"

"Isn't this the steamer for steaming rice in my hometown? Can I use it to steam wine?"

"I'm a professional winemaking company. Although this set of things looks a little older, it can really steam wine."

Under the curiosity of the audience, the flames on the stove steeped, the temperature in the ground pot began to gradually rise, and the wine and slurry inside was heated little by little.

As the temperature of the wine in the floor pot increased, it gradually exceeded 78.3℃, and drops of transparent wine gradually began to drop out of the wine tube.

Seeing that the wine dripped out, Wu Lei couldn't help but exclaim: "It's out of wine!"

"Don't be surprised."

Li Yi complained and pointed the beaker out of the wine tube.

Soon, the original drops of wine gradually began to increase, and in a short while it gathered into a trickle of water.

The smell of alcohol with the fragrance of peach blossoms began to spread. Zhao Jinmai curiously approached and smelled it, and immediately covered his nose and retreated.

"It's liquor!"

She looked disgusted.

“This is soju.”

Li Yi smiled and said: "White wine in ancient times referred to white rice wine. This distilled wine appeared in the Han Dynasty. It was called Liujiu before the Tang Dynasty, but it was changed to Shaojiu after the Song Dynasty. It was only in modern times that it was changed to white wine."

Hearing his words, Wu Lei asked in confusion: "I seem to have heard that distilled liquor was introduced to China in the Yuan Dynasty? Why did it exist in the Han Dynasty?"

"This statement was recorded by the Qing people, but whether it is true or not is yet to be concluded."

Li Yi looked at the wine that was flowing out of the mouth of the wine and explained: "In the "Dianhai Yuheng Zhi" by Tan Cui in the Qing Dynasty, the famous wine dew of soju was introduced to the country in the early Yuan Dynasty, and the Chinese people drank soju everywhere.

Zhang Mu also mentioned in "Diet Diet" that soju is also known as fire wine. This wine is not an ancient method, and people in Siam and the Netherlands at the end of the Yuan Dynasty began to preach the method in Middle Earth.

This is an argument studied by scholars in the Qing Dynasty, but modern scholars have found after extensive research that there were already distilled dew in the Song Dynasty.

The term "sauce" first appeared in the Tang Dynasty. Bai Juyi wrote the new lychee and the color of the chicken comb, and the amber light began to shine in the poem.

Among some famous wines listed in "National History Supplement", there is a famous wine called Jiannanzhi Shaochun, which is the predecessor of Jiannanchun, a famous wine in Sichuan Province now."

"Ah? I thought Jiannanchun was a modern brand, but it turned out to be available in the Tang Dynasty?"

Zhao Jinmai was very surprised.

Li Yi smiled and explained: "In fact, it is a modern winery that found a famous wine brand from ancient books and borrowed the name to create a new modern brand.

The taste and brewing method actually have nothing to do with Jiannan Shaochun in the Tang Dynasty. It’s the brand operation!”

"I just knew."

Zhao Jinmai chuckled and joked: "Brother Yi, you have exposed his old background! Don't accept a lawyer's letter."

“Not to.”

Li Yi didn't care and said with a smile: "It's not that its family does this, don't they all play like this?"

Everyone is just for publicity. To talk about the taste and craftsmanship of wine, modern times have long been dumped by ancient wine for a thousand miles.

The reason I want to make the name of ancient wine is to sell it for more money!”
