Chapter 18: The Jade Pear Paste of the Chitanda Brothers and Sisters
On Sunday morning, I received a call from the switchboard of the Engetsu Group, which was to remind the Chitanda family that it was time to leave for Enzuki Resort in five or six days to attend the banquet of Miss Erina.
I have to say that the reminder is very thoughtful.
It's the 13th in the blink of an eye.
Qianantitian Chengyu is really busy this February, and troubles are coming one after another.
Count the days, and in a few days, the results of the Chiba General Martial Arts High School International Class should also be announced.
At that time, it is time to decide whether to go to Feng Zhiqi or go to Zongwugao.
As for staying in Shenshan to study in Shenshan High School, he didn't think about it at all - after all, he had already gotten the admission slip from Fengzhiqi School Park.
However, there are still matters such as rental housing that need to be considered, which can also be expected to be troublesome.
It's time to think of some way to be cute to your mother and ask for some rewards.
Otherwise, this summer is going to be tough...... Although he also has the consciousness of working like An Yilun, it is better not to make things difficult for himself unless he has to.
Worried for a while, Qian Yan Tian Chengyu still decided to take advantage of the fact that there was no one at his alma mater on Sunday morning, and first go back to his alma mater, which had been on leave for nearly a month.
Then quietly packed the anime peripherals that have been stored in the school so far, and delivered them to An Yilun's house. If it alarms other people, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble.
While she was worried, Chitanda Airu emerged from an unknown corner of the house, and she was as excited as a little girl.
Although the house is very large, no matter how you toss it, you can't be shocked, but at least pay attention to the image of the eldest lady.
"Brother, let's boil jade pear paste!"
Well, Cheng Yu's plan was scrapped before it even began......
He had been planning things for several days, and he had no reason to refuse, as for the school's affairs...... It can only be postponed.
It is said on the Internet that boiling jade pear paste is really a bland and time-consuming task, but the result is sweet.
However, for the two brothers and sisters of the Chitanda family, not only the result, but also the process is quite enjoyable.
The home-made jade pear paste is the favorite of Qianantitian Chengyu in his past and present lives. On the other hand, Airu is curious and exploratory about all kinds of cuisine, no, maybe she's curious about everything in the world.
Chitanda Ai Liu tied her hair up with a rubber band, revealing her white and tender ears and the back of her neck neatly and refreshingly.
Hearty and youthful and not lacking in sexy appearance, she looks like a perfect goddess.
There are even some subtle differences between before and after tying a ponytail......
Well...... This reminds Sentanda Chengyu of the urban legend that "boys are all horsetail controls", as well as the cute essay "21 reasons to become a horsetail control".
Hawkers, the gentleman's topic is really embarrassed to reverie his sister, or let's talk about the jade pear paste.
Pears have always been a nourishing thing to nourish the lungs, and the pear paste with pears as the main ingredient should naturally be an autumn drink. However, in the spring, when it is dry, it is also suitable to drink in small amounts.
Because it is not the first time to make it, Airu has surpassed Chengyu to become the new leader, and Chengyu is naturally familiar with rolling up his sleeves to help.
Standing in the kitchen, Chitanda Airu is extraordinary, and it's hard to say whether he has the ability of a five-star chef, but the aura of a five-star chef is absolute.
"Brother, you wash the pears you bought first."
"Well, leave it to me!"
Cheng Yu meticulously completed the task ordered by Ai Liu, and also paid attention to Ai Liu, who was selecting and arranging the proportion of various ingredients.
Licorice, ginger, honey, Chuanbei, and loquat that I bought yesterday.
There are stocks, there are new purchases, they are all found from all corners of the home, and then neatly placed.
Airu's movements are clean and methodical, and her speed is amazing.
Chitanda is always so neat when she enters the state, and it works like a supercomputer that operates millions of times per second.
It's just that I usually feel a little dazed...... Oh, no, no, no, I must say that everyone is reserved and steady.
But now, she was like three heads and six arms, and suddenly she had already solved several preparations, and began to peel the pears that Chengyu had just washed.
Chiba's Komizu pear specialty dances in the palm of Ai Liu's hand, and in the blink of an eye, the pale yellow pear skin turns into a thin strip that falls off, revealing a snow-white and juicy pear puree.
The number of fortunate pears is not much, only about 20. After they were all washed, Cheng Yu continued to take over some imported red dates, which also required him to wash them carefully one by one.
When Chengyu washed and put a large plate of red dates on the plate, he found that the pears had been peeled and turned into small pieces of pear paste and placed on the cutting board.
Hey, hey, it's been less than five minutes! Qiantanda Ai Liu, you have broken the record again.
It is a little troublesome to peel and remove the core of jujubes, but it is difficult to love the pomegranate.
Just look at her agile knife work, delicately peeling off the thin skin of the red dates, and then smoothly taking out the jujube pits, you can know how superb her knife skills are.
Cheng Yu was not idle, and had already boiled two casseroles of pure water on the stove. With one pot on high heat and one pot on low heat, Ai Liu can quickly be used to boil different ingredients.
It's a match made in heaven.
On the cutting board, Ai Liu's movements became more and more fluid. She began to peel and slice the ginger she should have prepared, and the mashing action was flawless.
In the end, Chitanda Ailiu boiled the pear, licorice, and ginger together, and boiled the red dates, rock sugar, Chuanbei, and loquat on the other side.
The first phase is considered complete.
The movement was so fast, it was almost full of strength, but Chitanda Ailiu was happy and not tired at all.
Before long, the sweet smell of sugar, pears, dates, and other ingredients fills the kitchen. Passed into the noses of the two of them, no matter how many times, the smell was always indescribable.
It's not that high-end cuisine, and it doesn't use any high-end ingredients, but if there is such an irresistible thing as a kitchen heart, Airu's kitchen heart must be SSS-grade.
Chitanda Ai Rou happily scrubbed and cleaned up the kitchen utensils that were already unnecessary, like an angel who rejoiced in doing something good, and did not even forget to make a small, triumphant gesture to his brother.
Oh, this cute seller has a high score here with your brother Chengyu.
