Chapter 258
The embroidery competition was replaced by a cooking competition, also because every year the embroidery competition won by those few people, there was nothing to look at, and the queen was tired of it. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Cooking skills are different, although every girl can learn, but no one will spend a lot of effort on it, otherwise what is the use of the chef invited at home.
Cooking is a compulsory course, but it is because the emperor has such a custom: the second day after the new daughter-in-law enters the door, she needs to set up rules and cook a table of dishes for the family to eat.
Although the custom is like this, in fact, most of them are also made by the cook, and the new daughter-in-law only needs to mean it, put the dishes in the pot on the plate, and serve them to the table.
Therefore, most girls learn to cook, in fact, they only need to learn one thing, which is stewed soup.
As for why most of them will learn to stew and tonic soup seriously, everyone knows it, so there is no need to explain it.
The tournament was held in the Imperial Dining Room.
The queen, the prime minister's wife, the wife of the Guogong Mansion and several wives of the six books were the judges.
For the sake of fairness, lest a certain lady be biased towards a certain girl, the queen unified the proposition that everyone needs to make a meal with fish, soup, vegetables or others, as long as it is made of fish.
The girls were dumbfounded when they heard this!
"Fish?"
"How do you make fish?"
"Can fish be stewed in soup?"
"I don't like fish, I haven't eaten it before, how can I do it?"
……
Wails abound!
"The girls can choose a fish for themselves and ask the eunuch in the imperial dining room to clean it up. The palace maid beside the queen said to everyone.
Everyone looked at the fish swimming in several barrels, completely dumbfounded.
What kind of fish are these?
It's true that it knows itself, and it doesn't know it!
You look at me, I look at you, and I can't start.
Xiao'er walked into the barrel and picked out the most ordinary grass carp.
I didn't let the chief eunuch help deal with it, and cleaned the fish by myself, then deboned it, and cut the fish fillets all in one go.
It took less than half an hour to do all this.
The sisters are dumbfounded, this is over?
Don't say that the girls present are dumbfounded, even the imperial chefs, eunuchs, and palace maids in the imperial dining room are dumbfounded.
How can the sword skills of the county lord of Rui'an look more powerful than those of them who have been immersed in the kitchen for many years?
"Rui'an County Lord, how long have you practiced this sword skill? Who is the teacher? Even I sigh to myself, and I am willing to bow down. The chef of the imperial dining room looked at the pieces of fish that were the same size and as thick as paper, and praised them sincerely.
"Since I was a child, I have been learning from my mother's side, and I will become familiar with it after practice. Xiao'er replied as she began to process the slices of meat.
"Hmph! Sure enough, you are born with mud legs, and you are so skilled in such a dirty job, that is, you will show it off!" Chu Die couldn't help but attack her with Xiao'er's background when she heard the chef's words.
You must know that in this circle, noble origin is more important than anything else.
"What's wrong with the mud legs? Is it in the way of you? Or do you need you to support the people born with mud legs? That's why you have such a big opinion about people born with mud legs? You also grew up eating the grain grown by the mud legs, why do you look down on the mud legs so much? May I ask Miss Chu, do you behave like an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf?"
"Who are you scolding for being a white-eyed wolf!" Chu Die was so angry by these words that his face stinked.
Seeing this, Li Yuning pulled Chu Die: "Okay, don't say a word, you are also rude first, and you can't compete with the competition?"
After she said this, she smiled at Xiao'er and said, "Don't blame the county lord of Rui'an, Miss Chu doesn't mean anything else." ”
She can be regarded as helping the county lord of Rui'an to break the siege, so she should remember this situation.
It's really a waste of saliva to talk too much, everyone knows that she has no other meaning, only one meaning, that is, to look down on herself from a low background.
But other people don't look down on themselves, and they really don't matter to them at all.
It doesn't matter where people come from, what matters is where they are going.
Xiao'er ignored the two of them, lowered her head and did her work seriously.
Li Yuning saw that Xiao'er's movements were skillful, and her heart moved and said to the eunuch beside her: "What kind of fish is the Lord of Rui'an County choosing? Then please ask my father-in-law to help me dispose of the fish like the county lord of Rui'an. ”
If you don't know how to make fish yourself, it doesn't matter, someone can do it, learn and cook it yourself, and the taste will not be too far off.
The other girls still didn't understand anything when they heard this, and then everyone found the backbone of the heart, and they didn't panic, and after ordering the eunuch, they watched Xiao'er do it without blinking, and then hurriedly followed.
Xiao'er makes raw porridge with fish fillets, after the white porridge is boiled soft and glutinous, then add the marinated fish fillets, and when the porridge in the pot rolls again, the fish turns white, and the bowl is put in a bowl, and a few green onions are sprinkled by the way.
During the boiling of the white porridge, Xiao'er fried the fish bones and fish head by the way, and then boiled a fish soup, adding an appropriate amount of salt and a small amount of pepper to the milky white fish soup, and sprinkling a little coriander.
It's a very simple and homely meal.
The palace maid stepped forward to test the porridge and soup silver needles made by Xiao'er for poison, then packed them in small bowls and brought them out.
Seeing this, the others also got up and put the bowl in one after another. For a while, chickens and dogs jumped, and they were in a hurry.
The queen and the ladies saw that what was served was a bowl of porridge and milky white soup, which looked a little ordinary, but they all felt that this was normal, and if the things that were served were full of color, flavor and flavor, they should be suspicious.
A few people elegantly spooned a small spoonful and put it on the tip of their noses and sniffed it, it smelled good!
Then I ate it carefully.
Huh, it tastes good!
The taste is fresh and sweet with a little green onion, the fish meat is tender and refreshing, and several people quickly finished eating the porridge in the small bowl, and there is a feeling of unfinished.
It's delicious!
Then a few people tried the bowl of milky white soup again, and it was delicious!
"Is this a soup made of fish and milk?" asked the Prime Minister's wife, uncertain.
"No, if you have milk, why doesn't it have a sweet taste of milk? ”
"Let's try the next one. "The first dish is so delicious, the queen is full of anticipation for the rest of the food.
Several people put aside their doubts, rinsed their mouths, and began to taste the next meal.
"Is this also fish porridge? This color is quite special. Yellow, what did you add to it?"
"This porridge seems to have a mushy smell. ”
……
A few people spooned it and ate it.
Evil~
I want to throw up!
Several people looked at the queen in unison, and if the queen vomited, they also decisively vomited.
It's a pity that the queen swallowed it.
Several ladies wanted to cry: Can this be eaten or not! Queen, human life is at stake, this is not a joke!
Forget it, let's die! I don't know whose daughter made something that is simply harmful, and the prime minister's wife scolded in her heart.
