Although Chen Qing's family is not rich, he is indeed a very upright person, if it weren't for something that held him back, it would be absolutely impossible for him to take advantage of Han Peacock.

After Han Peacock discovered the difference between the manuscript of the Dream of Red Mansions, he thought about how to use the recipes on it, and the methods recorded in the manuscript of the Dream of Red Mansions were too detailed, which made Han Peacock come up with the idea of experimenting with the above records, and this experiment was out of control.

Over the years, Han Peacock has found a lot of things from the antique street, and what he finally left behind was only a mutilated nameless ancient book, that is, the ancient book that recorded the jade powder, and then this Red Mansion, and the rest were dealt with by him.

And the biggest difference between this Red Mansion and other editions is that it records a large number of methods for making delicious food.

The Dream of Red Mansions originally described the preparation methods of many dishes, and this manuscript of the Red Chamber has made detailed additions to all the dishes involved in the Red Mansion.

It was because Han Peacock saw the special features of this Red Mansion that he really collected this book.

At that time, he only spent ten yuan to buy this manuscript of the Red Mansion, after all, it was not a famous manuscript, but also a manuscript with pen characters, so he didn't pay much attention to it, but just threw it on the desk, if he hadn't discovered it later, this manuscript was not properly protected, and with the conditions in his basement, the book would soon be destroyed.

Fortunately, Han Peacock accidentally discovered the anomaly of this manuscript and solemnly protected it.

At that time, Han Peacock studied for a while and found that there was really nothing special about this manuscript of the Red Mansion, and the recipes in it were probably because the author who copied the book was a chef, so he would clearly write down the dishes involved in the books he knew about the Tao.

This book is no different from other versions of the Red Mansion except for supplementing the recipes of the Red Mansion, so after Han Peacock couldn't study anything, he put it on the bookshelf and collected it.

When he thought of helping Chen Qing and his wife, he reminded him of this manuscript of the Dream of the Red Chamber, and in this way, he realized the true value of this manuscript of the Dream of the Red Chamber.

Chen Qing and his wife make snacks, and in this manuscript of the Dream of Red Mansions, there are a lot of snacks recorded. Inside, Han Peacock remembers the sugar steamed cheese, pine nut cake, air-dried chestnuts, sugar-pickled rose marinade, deer breast, rice wine, shochu, lotus root flour cinnamon sugar cake, and pine goose oil roll.

Others are like small dumplings with crab stuffing that are one inch big, melon seeds fried in chicken fat, rhombus flour cake, chicken fat rolls, cream-fried small flour fruits, cream-fried peony pattern small flour fruits, powdered plum slices, snowflake candy, auspicious fruits, ruyi cakes, steamed new chestnut flour cakes with osmanthus sugar, hot cakes, sand kernels, red lings, chicken heads and other snacks.

With so many snacks, no matter which one can be made, it can become a special delicacy in a small restaurant.

When he first got this manuscript of the Dream of the Red Chamber, Han Peacock saw that this manuscript of the Dream of Red Mansions was different from other versions, so he studied some of the recipes and snacks recorded on it, and tried to use the above methods to make it.

At that time, he only discovered that the recipes recorded in the book were real, and the food made with the above methods was quite delicious.

Now that he wants to help Chen Qing and his wife, naturally he can't let them sell ordinary meat buns anymore, but to have characteristics, what kind of snacks can be better than those special snacks in the Dream of Red Mansions?

He happened to have such a book again, and he happened to learn some from it, but he didn't pay attention to it, but he just tried to find out that the books recorded in the book were all real and effective recipes, and now that he uses them, it is naturally different.

Han Peacock's memory is outstanding, he flipped through the book for a few minutes, and then settled on the first snack, tofu skin buns.

In Dream of Red Mansions, the tofu skin buns appear because of Baoyu.

In that paragraph, Baoyu smiled: "Okay, it's too early. Because asked Qingwen again: "I had breakfast in that house today, there is a plate of steamed buns with tofu skin, I think you like to eat, and I told Grandma Zhen, I only said that I kept it for the evening to eat, and asked someone to send it, can you eat it?" ”

Qingwen replied that Baoyu had prepared it for herself, but it was taken away by Baoyu's nurse, and Baoyu's nurse took the cheese that had been given to the attacker, and took the tofu skin bun on her own initiative, and Baoyu lost her temper.

Later generations criticized Baoyu for forgetting to dig a well, Baoyu is in adolescence, and his performance in front of girls is the main contradiction, and the others cannot be taken care of for the time being.

Tofu skin is rich in protein, calcium, iron and other minerals, and is believed by traditional Chinese medicine to be able to relieve cough, clear away heat, and nourish the stomach.

Tofu skin is very common in various parts of the country, tofu skin buns, that is, tofu skin wrapped with golden needles, fungus, green vegetables, mushrooms, or pork, chicken, shrimp, plus oil, salt, ginger shreds, sugar, sesame oil steamed.

Soak the tofu skin in water to soften, cut it into squares, soak the shiitake mushrooms and dried shrimp until soft, shred the shiitake mushrooms, fungus and bamboo shoots, finely chop the celery and coriander, pour in the seasonings, fry in the pot, and mix with the chicken breast.

Flatten the tofu skin, put the stuffing one by one, grab the wrapping, tie it tightly with silk thread, or glue it with something else, put it in the steamer and it will be cooked for a quarter of an hour.

There are several ways for Han Peacock to get this manuscript, the above one is the simplest, and there are several others, one is to wrap the filling in tofu skin, such as the four folds of a paper package, into a square bag, seal it with egg white, and steam it in a basket.

Then it is cut into small pieces with tofu skin, stuffed into a pocket, closed with twine, steamed and formed, and then removed from the twine, and also chopped with tofu, mixed with condiments as the filling, wrapped in noodles, steamed.

Tofu skin buns used to be a tribute in the Qing Dynasty, and there is a record of this thing in the imperial food archives of the Qing Palace, and the production method obtained by Han Peacock is more exquisite than the tribute in the Qing Palace.

The stuffing of the tofu skin bun is also very particular about sitting up, generally the special good tofu skin is washed with water, soaked in boiling water, cut into about 3 cm long filaments after softening, and then cut the washed enoki mushrooms into small pieces, and the black fungus is also cut into shreds after it is good, and then with a little minced shiitake mushrooms to enhance the flavor.

Blanch the rape with boiling water, cool it with cold water, chop it, mix all the raw materials above, pour it with green onion pepper oil and sesame oil, then add a little salt, monosodium glutamate, chicken powder and sugar, add minced chives and ginger and mix well, and then match the skin of the noodles or semi-hot noodles, take the folding, and wrap it into a chrysanthemum-shaped round bun.

These processes are more or less now circulating, but the material selection part is now incomplete.

At that time, the tributes in the court were also specially supplied, and now this aspect is precisely its shortcoming.

All the things used in the palace must be the best, so the soybeans used to make tofu skin are also the best, and now, the soybeans used for the offering are almost impossible to find.

The diet of the Qing Palace was managed by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Guanglu Temple, and the chickens, ducks, cows, sheep, and vegetables supplied in various provinces and regions had strict regulations, and they were generally the best and most famous in the country, so they would be listed as tribute.

And modern food is not bad if it doesn't poison people, it is not easy to choose such good materials, and Han Peacock has tried several times with the recipes in the manuscript of the Dream of Red Mansions, but the effect is not good.

At the beginning, it was okay, he mainly made meat products, and the selection of materials was not very difficult, although the materials could affect the deliciousness of the food, but it was not very powerful.

When it came time to make tofu skin with soybeans, ordinary soybeans were no longer good, and although they were much better than the tofu skins sold outside, they were still not as delicious as those described in the manuscript.

The most popular Han peacock can only carefully select soybeans according to the selection method provided in the recipe, but he has found a lot of so-called organic soybeans or soybeans under various other names, which are not ideal.

After several unsuccessful experiments, Han Peacock did not give up, but found more soybeans to do experiments to see if the bean juice made from these soybeans was different.

Because soybeans need to be soaked, once Han Peacock had no water around him, so he thought of a lazy way to directly control the small flag hanging around his neck, and released the water absorbed in the small flag to soak soybeans.

I didn't expect that the soybeans soaked this time, the bean juice made of it, but it was obviously better than the original one, and the tofu skin made with this kind of soybean completely reached the level recorded in the book, especially the taste of the tofu skin, which cannot be said to melt in the mouth, but it also completely lacks the roughness of ordinary tofu skin.

If you simply eat tofu skin, you will feel that the tofu skin is difficult to swallow after chewing, which is mainly a problem of bean dregs.

However, in the hand-copied Red Mansion, it is clearly recorded that the tofu skin of making tofu skin buns is smooth and refreshing, and ordinary tofu skin cannot reach this level.

It was because of this that Han Peacock knew how special the materials in the hand-copied Red Mansion were in the hand-copied Red Mansion, and it was because of the huge difference between the original materials and the current materials that he would spend a lot of effort to find suitable soybeans to use to make the imperial tofu skin of the palace.

Han Peacock couldn't think of anything to use the water in the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag, and the soaked soybeans would change, so he sent the soybeans to a special food testing agency for testing.

The result of the test is the best quality, this kind of soybean soaked in the water in the Xuanyuan water flag, is still the same as the original soybean, but this soybean has become the best quality soybean.

In addition to a small amount of pesticides and metal residues in soybeans, other aspects of soybeans have reached the top level of beans.

Such soybeans can be compared with the special soybeans of the Qing Dynasty in the United States, and such soybeans are unique in today's large-scale agriculture.
