Sikong Yao pondered for a moment and said with a wry smile: "Macaron's words are more high-end than puffs, but are you sure your cousin won't think about the reputation of a girl's crispy breasts, you are pushing your cousin-in-law into the fire." ”

Jean smiled awkwardly and said, "So, it's better to decide to be a puff, right?" ”

Sikong Yao shook his head lightly and said, "But why does Puff seem too insincere, right?" Although it's nice to have cream, chocolate and even ice cream wrapped in a fluffy and empty cream dough, no matter how you look at it, it feels a little childish, and it's okay for a lover in love to try one, but your cousin and your cousin-in-law are arguing right now. ”

Jean smiled and said, "No, the story of the puff was originally a gesture of goodwill, you probably don't know how the puff was invented, right?" ”

Sikong Yao shook his head and said, "Although I don't know? Although many people think that Puff is the French Queen Catherine? Morality? Invented by the Medici, but in fact the puff is a sweet of Italian origin and was not introduced to France until the 16th century. ”

Jean said with some surprise: "I didn't expect you to know so well, but despite this, you don't know why there are puffs, do you?" ”

Sikong Yao pondered for a moment in embarrassment and said, "Uh...... I really don't know. ”

Jean explains: "In the thirteenth century, when there were many farms in Italy, and the owners were very powerful local people, and on a large farm in the north of Florence, the farmer's daughter fell in love with a young man who was herding for her master, but very quickly. Their sweet love was discovered by the father, who ordered the young man to be kicked out of the farm and never to see the girl again. The girl begged her father, and at last the farmer came up with a problem and asked them to 'put milk in eggs'. If they do it in three days, they are allowed to be together, otherwise, the lads will be sent far, far south of Italy. ”

Sikong Yao asked, "So they invented the puff?" ”

Jean nodded, "Yes, the clever lad has made a kind of snack in the pastry room that no one has ever seen, and the outside is as crispy as an eggshell." And it has the color of an egg. And the main ingredient is eggs, and the filling inside is frozen milk. The unique pastry won the approval of the farmer, and later the girl and the boy became a sweet husband and wife, and opened one shop after another selling sweetness and love in northern Italy. The first pronunciation of this lad's name is 'bubble'. And the farmer's daughter. That is, the last pronunciation of the girl's name is 'Fu', so the little snack they invented was named Puff. This is a well-known story in Italy. ”

Sikong Yao shrugged and said, "Okay, it's the first time I've heard of it, but I still don't think puffs can impress your cousin, what do you think?" ”

Jean nodded, "Well, it's not enough, but we can go further." ”

Sikong Yao said puzzledly: "Go further? ”

Jean smiled a little smugly, "The birth of the puff is technically thought to have been discovered by accident. Puffs soon became popular in Italy and began to spread to the Habs of Austria and the Bourbon of France, exhausted by the long struggle for European dominance, and later agreed to a political marriage in order to avoid the profits of the neighboring fishermen. So the Austrian princess and the French crown prince held a wedding banquet in the Palace of Versailles, the puff is the finale dessert of the feast of the two countries, drawing a break for the long war, since then the Hamil Hatton puff has become a symbol of auspicious dessert in France, in the festival occasions such as the birth of a baby or the marriage of a newlywed, it is customary to dip the puffs in caramel and pile them into a tower to celebrate, called the puff tower, symbolizing the meaning of celebration and congratulations. It is precisely because the Empress of France invented the puff tower that many people think that the puff was invented by the French. ”

Sikong Yao nodded and said, "I know, you mean Puff Tower?" ”

Jean smiled and said, "That's right, that's it, just imagine, because Hamilton Hatton cream and Hamilton cake entered the wedding hall, so there is Hamilton cream cake." And the bread that loves Hamilton Hatton's cream can only bury the love in your heart and become a lefu puff, and when you take the first bite, you will fall in love with it. The bread is wrapped in water, Hamilton cream, flour and eggs. The loaf eggs in this bread form a hole during the baking process, and the contents of the puffs are added by injection or tearing the top of the bread. Isn't it enough to shake people's hearts with hundreds of puffs filled with chocolate, ice cream or cream fillings, and if we like, to make all sorts of flavors, and then stack them one by one in an orderly manner and turn them into a tower? ”

Sikong Yao thought about what Jean described, and was silent for a moment and said, "I understand, quantitative change to qualitative change." ”

Jean nodded, "That's right, that's what it means!" ”

This method sounded more reliable after all, and Sikong Yao continued to ask, "Okay, your proposal passed, but will your cousin buy it?" ”

Jean smiled and said, "No problem. ”

Sikong Yao nodded and said, "Okay, then wait for your cousin-in-law to come out." ”

At first, Jean's cousin-in-law, Hebrew, the general manager of the foundry, didn't recognize Jean, but soon after Jean revealed his identity and intentions, Sikong Yao and Jean were instantly treated as VIPs.

Hebrew said gratefully, "Gene, you've been a great help, your cousin hasn't spoken to me for more than half a month." ”

Jean shrugged and said, "Cousin, she has this temper, I know, cousin-in-law, you suffered." ”

Like the joy of a long drought, Hebrew met Jean as if he had seen a savior, and the grievances that had been held in his heart these days finally had a place to confide, and he was immediately relieved.

Jean then said: "But cousin-in-law, I hope that after this matter is completed, you can give me a little vanilla, I am currently in the examination of a professional pastry chef, and I need to use a variety of ingredients, I hope you can be accommodating, can you?" ”

The Hebrews were a little embarrassed and said, "Uh...... Lemon vanilla ......"

Jean shrugged, "Is it difficult?" ”

Hebrew nodded and said: "It's not neat, because the raw materials for that production, if you want to call, need to be passed down level by level, and the whole process of feedback needs to be dredged a lot of links, and the time is quite long, but don't worry, as long as I can get your cousin, I can still get some vanilla." ”

Sikong Yao added worriedly, "This won't affect your work, right?" ”

Hebrew smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay. ”

Jean nodded and said, "That's fine, Vanilla please, besides, I have to bother you to prepare some materials for us, the sooner the better, because we don't have much time." ”

Jean handed the Hebrew a list of materials that were all the ingredients needed to make the puffs, the most basic flour and cream were essential, and the eggs were abundant.

Hebrew took a general look, scanned it, and made sure that there were no particularly difficult ingredients, and then swore solemnly, "Okay, leave it to me." ”

Hebrew quickly went down to deal with these two things, and Sikong Yao asked Jean with some curiosity: "Jean, I looked at some recipes just now, it seems that the amount of butter is a bit much, do you have any other plans?" ”

Jean nodded and said, "Well, I didn't expect you to notice, it's really keen." ”

Sikong Yao smiled and said, "Hey, because you seem to like the recipe you tweak, so I also pay attention to the recipe of the ingredients you use when making desserts." ”

Jean laughed, "But this time it's not about changing the recipe, it's about doing something else." ”

Sikong Yao asked, "What?" ”

"Custard-chan." Jean laughed.

Sikong Yao pondered for a moment and said, "Custard sauce, is it mayonnaise, or mayonnaise?" ”

Jean explains: "No, there is a difference between mayonnaise, mayonnaise and custard, and what we usually call custard can be divided into two types, boiled and baked. The baked custard sauce is made by baking whole eggs or egg yolks in a water bath, while the boiled custard sauce only uses egg yolks, and the egg yolks are added to milk and sugar to make milk sauce, which was invented by the British chef Birmingham in 1837, also known as English Klimt sauce, and generally speaking, fish and chips will be served with this sauce. ”

Jean continued to explain: "And the custard sauce for baking, add caster sugar to the egg yolk, beat it at high speed with a whisk to make the egg yolk fluffy and thick, pour in the sifted low-gluten flour and continue to stir evenly with a whisk, pour the milk into the milk pot, after boiling, slowly pour 1/3 into the egg yolk paste, pour the remaining milk into the egg yolk paste, stir evenly, pour the egg milk back into the milk pot after sifting, reheat it over low heat, and keep stirring while heating until the egg milk becomes thick and smooth. Immediately remove from heat and place the milk pot in a basin of cold water to allow it to cool quickly, so that the custard sauce is ready. ”

Sikong Yao was silent for a moment, and suddenly said like a god: "I know, that yellow fluffy sauce on top of that caterpillar bread is custard sauce, right?" ”

Jean nodded and said, "That's right, that's Custard-chan." ”

Sikong Yao smiled: "Ha, it turns out that this is what I did, it's interesting, but what do we want Custard sauce for?" ”

Jean smiled and said, "Custard sauce has a lot of applications, in addition to squeezing it on the surface of bread for decoration, it is also very versatile. ”

Sikong Yao came to his senses: "For example, you can also sandwich it in bread, fill it in puffs to make stuffing, and so on?" (To be continued......)
