Chapter 301: Eating in Wisteria Flowers
Xue Wu looked at the queen as soon as she heard that the wisteria flowers could be eaten, and immediately turned into star eyes, and the regret just now was gone. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
She didn't feel a little funny, but her heart couldn't help but soften. Although the queen is four or five years older than her, she is still her master, and there is a difference between superiority and inferiority. But because of the childishness that the queen often shows, she is like her sister.
Xue Wu said softly: "People often pick wisteria flowers to steam, or blanch and salad, or wrap noodles and fry, or make wisteria cakes, the taste is excellent." It's just that the seeds of this wisteria flower are poisonous, so you have to pay attention to picking them out. β
Gillian listened and said nonchalantly: "That's not simple, let's take off the flower stems and keep only the buds." β
Her temperament has always been that it is rain, and I heard that wisteria flowers can be eaten. After lunch that day, he instructed Sifu to go to the greenhouse hall and tell Chuntuo to bring a message to His Majesty to come back early, and then went to Huanghuan Pavilion on the foot, except for Magnolia who was left to watch the house, the rest such as Begonia, Snow Dance, Bauhinia and Wooden Pen all took small baskets to follow.
After arriving at the Huanghuan Pavilion, I saw that the wisteria flowers in the corridor were still blooming tirelessly, and the deep and transparent sea of purple flowers reflected the green jade floor tiles with a clear purple light.
Gillian is seven months pregnant and is still a twin, so naturally she has no chance to get started in person. She was carefully supported by Begonia and Snow Dance, one left and one right, standing under the corridor at the end of the sea of flowers, watching Bauhinia and wooden pens lead the palace people to pick wisteria flowers.
The afternoon sun is good, the sky is blue, and the warm wind is blowing on the face, all of which is refreshing.
Gillian took a deep breath and was immediately intoxicated by the sweet and elegant warm floral fragrance in the air.
She looked at the palace people who were picking and thought, how can this long palace corridor be one hundred and eighty meters, even if it is now at the end of the flowering period, there must be no flowering seeds and flower stems, there should be a lot, enough for her to eat happily.
If it's delicious, when it first opens next year, pick it up when it's the most tender.
Well...... But when you think about it, it seems like a pity......
It's better to look at the flowers first, and then eat the flowers.
Gillian struggled sweetly for a while, and then finally thought of a satisfactory solution.
I have to say that she has been pregnant stupidly for three years.
She didn't notice the difference between her so-called solution and what she had dealt with this year.
Aren't they all the same? Silly Jiaojiao.
Everyone worked in the shade of the flowers for a full hour, and finally two baskets of wisteria flowers were filled.
But in terms of a long corridor full of flowers, only half of it has been picked.
Xue Wu stopped and explained to Gillian: "Queen, this has to be eaten while it is fresh." If you pick too much, you won't be able to finish eating, and there are enough two baskets. β
Gillian nodded kindly, and consciously took the initiative to disperse for about three quarters of an hour, but she really felt tired before she got on the step.
After returning to the greenhouse hall, these two baskets of wisteria flowers were immediately sent to Shaofu, and Haitang personally went to spread the word that the queen would eat at night.
After the Taiguan Ling smiled and promised to send the begonias out in person, he came back and looked at the two baskets of wisteria flowers, which was really a headache. Why does this queen still want to eat these things that ordinary people eat?
But fortunately, his master was born in hardship in the past, and after the beginning of spring, he loved to ask Xiaohuangmen to pick some wild vegetables for him to eat.
Because of this, the Taiguan Order is not as accustomed to making bear's paws and deer tendons as the imperial chef next to him, and he is confused when he touches these ordinary ingredients.
He rolled up his sleeves and called more than a dozen small yellow doors to bring a roll of silk silk and spread it out, and poured two baskets of wisteria flowers on it. He explained to them in a solemn tone, "This flower seed can be used in medicine, can cure muscle and bone pain, and can also prevent wine rot from deteriorating." But if you eat it, it's poisonous. So, boys, they're all picky. If you leak in, we'll wait for the top and bottom to add life to it. β
The little yellow men were frightened by what they said, trembling like quails, and they didn't dare to come out.
The Taiguan ordered to inspect them round and round, until their heads hung down to the ground, and then he spoke again: "It's not that I'm scaring you, I'm still talking lightly." This is not right at all, it is not only that we all have to be killed and fed to the dogs, but your relatives outside the palace, as long as they do not have five suits, will all die with us! Do you know what the Nine Clans are? β
His voice was low and soft, but it resounded like rolling thunder in the hearts of people, making people's scalps tingle.
The little yellow men listened to his words, and they all hurriedly leaned over to Daonuo.
The Taiguan Decree saw that the beating was almost done, and relieved their hearts. "Of course, we have to do a good job, Her Royal Highness the Queen is having a good time, we are rewarded from top to bottom! You half-grown children, it's time to grow your body, isn't it good to eat and eat when you get a reward? β
As soon as the little yellow men said this, their fear of this errand disappeared a little. I thought in my heart that as long as I cheered up the spirit, was cautious and carefully picked five times according to the requirements of the Taiguan's order, how could I make a mistake? I was a little happy and eager to try.
After the Taiguan Ling told the little yellow men in a frightened and coaxed manner, he went to the desk to make corresponding preparations.
He had just cracked up more than a dozen eggs and stirred them up to froth before he could cook the candy cubes. I heard Xiao Huangmen timidly call him: "Taiguan order, these flowers are all selected." He looked up, and heard the sound of one after another, all saying that the flower had been cleaned, and that the flower seeds and stems had been removed.
He was suspicious in his heart, and even after washing his hands, he went to sort it himself.
As a result, it was really all dealt with.
The Taiguan Ling couldn't help but sigh, who can serve by the queen's side is not a clever person?
But even if the people around the queen have already chosen it, he can't just leave it alone, just wash it and cook it and present it.
Maybe there's something missing here, you can't steal this lazy!
This was sent to him to do, and it was naturally his responsibility if something happened.
Taiguan Ling clapped his hands and stood up, and said softly: "It seems that the greenhouse hall has picked it up before sending it over, but we can't take it lightly." I still have to do it five times from beginning to end, for fear that one or two of them will not be cleaned. β
When the little yellow men heard this, they all lowered their heads and carefully picked them up to see if they could find the fish that slipped through the net.
The Taiguan Ling looked at them for a while, and then admonished: "Light! Tap on your hands! How can you eat this delicate flower when it is crumbled? β
The little yellow men were stunned by what he said, and their hands almost didn't know how to move.
After the little yellow men carefully selected the two baskets of wisteria flowers five times, washed them with water and controlled them dry, they were divided into three pots according to the requirements of the Taiguan order.
After everything was ready, the Taiguan ordered the little yellow men to go down, and they didn't even leave anyone behind.
He had to make three dishes, in that order, wisteria flower cake, wisteria flower steamed cabbage, and wisteria flower pancake.
The Taiguan ordered the first pot of wisteria flowers to be marinated in boiled and melted and cooled starch sugar, which had to be marinated for half an hour. Then mix the flour, oil, and water into a dough, and add oil to the flour and mix it into a puff pastry.
After the dough has risen for two quarters of an hour, knead the dough smoothly, wrap it in puff pastry and roll it into an oval shape, fold and fold it again, roll it out into long strips, and cut it into nine pieces of suitable size.
While the wisteria flower still had to be pickled for two quarters of an hour, he put it aside first.
Turn your head and mix the beaten and well-mixed eggs into the flour, pour them into the second pot and stir them into a thick paste with the wisteria flowers. This is to make pancakes, and they have to be served as soon as they are fried. So, after he reconciled with him, he also put this down and made steamed vegetables.
Taiguan ordered his hands and feet to quickly spread a layer of leeks on the bottom of the steamer, which can not only prevent the pot from sticking, but also make the steamed vegetables carry a faint leek fragrance. Then he poured a small bowl of oil into the third pot, mixed with the wisteria flowers, and mixed with flour and salt. Then it's time to light the fire, put the food in the steamer and start steaming.
After steaming for a quarter of an hour, he used his long chopsticks to copy the steaming white steam to prevent sticking.
The wisteria steamed vegetables had to be steamed for more than a quarter of an hour, so he took advantage of this time to heat the oil in the pot, poured the wisteria paste in the second basin into the pot, and spread it evenly.
The scent of flowers and oil creaked straight into his nose, but he didn't dare to be distracted. Wait until the two sides of the oven are golden and quickly come out of the pan, and this wisteria flower pancake will be ready.
He took the time to glance at the carving in the hall, and saw that it was four quarters of the unitary hour, and the wisteria flowers in the first pot had been pickled for half an hour. I hurriedly rolled out the nine agents, wrapped them with pickled wisteria flowers, closed them, flattened them, and put them in a frying pan to burn them golden inside and out.
It's a May day, it's already a little hot, and it's in the kitchen again. Taiguan Ling had a slight sweat on his head, but he didn't dare to rest, so he hurriedly brought out the wisteria steamed vegetables in the steamer.
The three dishes were finally ready, and there was a smile on his face, and he shouted: "Hurry up, send it to the greenhouse hall while it's hot!" β
*****
Liu Che returned to the greenhouse hall at two o'clock today, thinking expectantly along the way: I don't know why Gillian asked him to come back early, and the Sifu who came to talk is also a person who doesn't know anything, so he just said that the queen said so.
The snow lion is being brushed under the porch by Xiao Dongzi, and it is comfortably leaning back its neck.
Suddenly, it heard the sound of familiar footsteps, and it lowered its head to look at the door, and after a while it saw that the emperor had returned.
Xiao Dongzi also saw the emperor and hurriedly knelt down and saluted.
Naturally, no one asked a horse to do anything, and the snow lion still stood leisurely. It looked at the sky and thought to himself that the master had come back early today.
The sound of footsteps reached it in an instant, and a hand gently landed on its neck, touching it again and again, and talking to it warmly. "The bristles are comfortable."
The snow lion raised its head to look at Liu Che and gently kicked its four hooves.
Liu Che only paused for a moment, then raised his feet to leave, and he was still thinking about seeing Gillian immediately.
When the snow lion saw that he was leaving, he didn't want Xiao Dongzi to brush it, so Da followed him.
Liu Che walked for a while and saw that it had been following, thinking that the snow lion wanted to order snacks to eat, so he turned around and asked Chun Tuo to take a piece of caramel to feed it.
After the snow lion happily ate the candy, he still followed, and now Liu Che finally understood that he also wanted to follow up to see Gillian.
He crouched down and put his arm around its neck and touched it back and forth several times. After enjoying the enthusiasm of his master, the snow lion smiled and stuck out his tongue to lick his hand. Liu Che laughed out loud from the licking of its hot wet tongue, and he touched it a few more times before getting up and calling it away.
When I entered the dormitory, I could hear that there was silence all around.
Xue Wu and Begonia were standing at the door, and they all saluted when they saw the emperor coming back.
Liu Che waved his hand and asked, "Is the queen asleep?" β
His voice was so small that he almost had to look at the shape of his mouth to understand what he meant.
Xue Wu didn't speak at all, just nodded lightly in reply.
The snow lions could see from their tiptoeing that their master was asleep again and had not yet risen.
Will it always be like this when you are pregnant? Or will it always be like this in the future?
The snow lion didn't know the answer, so he had to bear the worry and worry on his own. It drooped its head and walked out slowly, that aggrieved little appearance, it was really pitiful.
Liu Che called Xiao Dongzi to lead the snow lion out for a run and relax.
After he turned to the side hall to wash and change clothes, he was just about to go to the side hall to read the medical book, when he heard that Gillian had woken up, and he should go to the dormitory.
As soon as Gillian woke up, she remembered the food made of wisteria flowers, and asked Xue Wu: "Has Shaofu sent food?" β
"Not yet." Xue Wu carefully helped her to stay with Yulan and replied to her. "Are you hungry? It's almost time to figure it out. β
Gillian was noncommittal and smiled lightly.
How could she say that she was afraid that she had slept with it? I'm afraid that the food sent will be cold, and no matter how hot it is, it won't taste so good.
As soon as Liu Che entered the hall, he vaguely heard Gillian say something to eat, and turned his head and told Chuntuo to go to Shaofu to urge.
The long-haired carpet in the hall was finally removed when it was really warm in May, and Liu Che's bare feet stepped on the green jade inlaid gold floor tiles, and it was finally not silent.
Gillian listened to the sound and knew people, and she didn't have to look back, so she called him in a cheerful tone: "You're back." β
He was turning the screen and going inside, and when he heard the words, he hummed softly, and a smile appeared on his face.
He can't tolerate anyone ignoring his supreme majesty as the emperor of the Han Dynasty, even to his sisters in private, he calls himself me, but he is especially fond of Gillian like a folk husband and wife to get along with him.
He wants his Jiaojiao to always treat him like he was a child, treat him as a husband and a friend, but don't treat him as an emperor.
He was already lonely enough, and he would be even more lonely in the future.
But as long as there is Gillian, he has the most precious company in the world.
That's enough.
In particular, wait another two or three months, and he will be able to welcome their child right away.
He will love them with all his might!
Liu Che walked to the dresser with a smile, looked at Gillian in the dusk brass mirror and asked her, "Are you tired today?" Is there anything uncomfortable? β
Gillian shook her head, and then happily told him that she went to pick wisteria flowers today, and asked Shaofu to make meals.
Liu Che was also very curious, and asked her with interest what kind of dishes she made? How?
Gillian was stunned by his question, she really didn't know. "I have to ask the official orderβ"
Liu Che smiled, turned around and went to the basin to twist a handkerchief to clean her face.
After washing up, the person who came from Shaofu to deliver food happened to come.
Gillian was finally able to eat the wisteria flowers she had been looking forward to all afternoon.
Overall, all are very good, and the most obvious feature is the overflowing floral fragrance. Take a bite and make people feel like they are under a wisteria trellis.
The wisteria cake is sweet and palatable, crispy and soft, and full of fragrance.
The wisteria steamed vegetables are a little creamy, and when you taste them carefully, they seem to have a little other fragrance.
As for the wisteria flower pancakes, they are a little crispy and sweet.
Liu Che loves the fragrance of this flower very much, and he said that he could see the dense purple flowers with his eyes closed.
Two people, you have one chopstick, and I have one chopstick, and you eat the three dishes cleanly, and the other dishes sent are only slightly moved.
