Chapter 51: Rose Yam

Chen Er is thinking about this very seriously at the moment, what should he do? After all, when I was out just now, I had already pretended to be all the coercion.

After a glance around the kitchen, it landed outside.

Then he immediately had an idea in his mind.

Chen Er beckoned Liu Yunya to come over, "You go and help me find some ingredients." ”

Liu Yunya hurriedly looked at him very seriously, but the names of the ingredients that came out of Chen Er's mouth made Liu Yunya stunned.

"Fifteen fresh half-opened roses, half a catty of young jasmine leaves, and fifty fresh and beautifully shaped bamboo leaves."

Are you sure these things are all edible? Are they all ingredients?

Liu Yunya looked at Chen Er for a long time and didn't speak.

Chen Er's eyes were still outside, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

He thought for a moment, then pointed to the outside of the restaurant and said, "I remember that some bamboo was planted at the entrance of the restaurant, so I went there to pick it." ”

After speaking, he added, "By the way, remember to cover the ingredients." "Keep it mysterious, after all.

Liu Yunya hurriedly went out.

Liu Jiming had been watching from the side, he seemed to be in deep thought, and after a while, he asked Chen Er.

"I know that roses can be used to make pies and desserts...... But what are the jasmine leaves and bamboo leaves used for? ”

Chen Er smiled and did not speak.

Liu Jiming thought about it again, then patted his thigh and said, "That bamboo leaf has a wonderful use, spread the bamboo leaf in the steamer, and then put food on it, and the steamed food will naturally carry a smell of bamboo leaves." ”

Chen Er nodded, "This method is really useful, but I won't do this today." ”

Chen Er said this, and Liu Jiming was even more confused.

What else can you do with bamboo leaves?

When Liu Yunya brought in all the ingredients, Chen Er was taking out the steamed yam from the steamer.

The peeled yam slowly revealed its snow-white and slender body in a pile of steam, like the arm stretched out by a young woman, as if it could be broken with a slight poke.

Chen Er put the steamed yam into a large bowl, took out a pound, and carefully mashed all the yams in the bowl into a puree.

Once pounded, pour it into a square mold, smooth the surface, cover it with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator to freeze.

Liu Yunya hurriedly handed the roses she bought to Chen Er.

"Today is Tanabata, and the roses are expensive."

Chen Er didn't pay attention to these days, no wonder he said that there were so many couples on the street today, just one pair of front feet stepped over, and two more could be poked with the back feet.

Chen Er took the rose and looked at it, it was good, the color was gorgeous, the petals were delicate, and it was very fresh. The floral scent is also natural.

"How much does this bouquet cost?" Chen Er asked casually as he folded off the petals of the roses and put them in a clean pool of water to soak.

Liu Yunya saw Chen Er's movements, the corners of his mouth twitched, as if a piece of meat had been dug up on his body, and he shook his body.

“520。”

Chen Er's movements immediately froze, and he turned his head and said, "What? ”

Then he silently looked down at the rose branch that had been picked by himself, and couldn't help complaining, "It's too expensive......

Chen Er threw away the flower branch that had plucked all the petals, and then said to Liu Yunya seriously, "When the time comes, remember to include the cost of these ingredients in the cost of the dish." ”

Liu Yunya nodded vigorously in agreement.

Chen Er cooks very quickly, it seems that he has already mastered every step, and he can quickly get things done without the slightest hesitation and pause.

Liu Yunya looked at it with a learning attitude and didn't even blink his eyes.

"The first course is called Rose Yam."

In fact, when Chen Er was making yams, Liu Jiming combined with other ingredients, and he had already roughly guessed what Chen Er's dish was.

It's just that the rose yam made by Chen Er seems to be a little different from what they usually make.

To make rose yams, you must have sugar roses, but there are no sugar roses in the kitchen now. Chen Er chose to replace sugar roses with fresh roses, which made Liu Jiming feel a little interesting.

He guessed that Chen Er should have to do some more with these fresh rose petals.

Sure enough, Chen Er roughly cleaned the roses soaked in the water, then salvaged them and drained them, and put them aside.

Boil a pot of water in a large iron pot, put the washed rose petals into the iron pot, blanch, and wait for the aroma of the roses to be heavier and the color stronger, quickly take them out with a large colander and put them in a bowl for later use.

Drain the water from the iron pot, wipe it dry, and then put it back on the stove over low heat.

When the pot is hot, pour in two tablespoons of honey and put in the rose petals on the side.

At this time, you can use a small wooden spoon to carefully stir-fry in an iron pot, stir-fry the honey and rose petals together, and try to mash the roses a little bit to get out the juice.

Liu Yunya watched carefully from the side, and lost no time in asking, "When is this going to be fried?" ”

Chen Er's hand kept moving, "Stir-fry until the honey turns a faint red, and the aroma of roses is also contaminated with a faint honey fragrance." ”

Liu Yunya nodded.

Chen Er took the nectar of roses out of the pot.

He took out the yam puree in the refrigerator and patted it gently through the transparent plastic wrap, the yam puree was not as soft and rotten as it was just now, it had become a little harder, but this degree of hardness could still be manipulated and deformed.

Chen Er put the yam puree in the mold upside down on the table, and then used a knife to divide the yam puree into small squares.

It's all served on a plate in the shape of a green leaf.

"The first dish is ready, it's a dessert."

Although Shui Jikun should have eaten the dessert before the meal just now.

Chen Er scooped out the red rose nectar with a spoon and sprinkled it on the yam cubes.

"Let's go."

Liu Yunya hurriedly poked out his head and sniffed the fragrance in the air vigorously.

It is expected that plum quenches thirst and does not smell white and does not smell.

It wasn't until Liu Jiming glared at her that she took the food and left.

In the restaurant, Shui Jikun didn't wait for a long time, and he was also very patient. Unhurried, looking at the scenery outside the window, occasionally picking up a glass of water and drinking some water.

Xie Chunhua and Zhuo Yishu also restrained a lot at this time, just sat quietly and did not come forward to talk again.

Liu Yunya came with food.

As a foodie, Shui Jikun's sense of smell is still very sensitive.

He immediately smelled a hint of cold sweetness in the air.

The sweet smell was unlike anything he had smelled before.

Today's sweetness is more like the fragrance of flowers, just like the best time for flowers to bloom in spring, and it is also the busiest time for bees, the flowers are gorgeous, the fragrance is rich, and the fragrance of flowers contains a lot of nectar.

There is sweetness in the fragrance, and there is fragrance in the sweetness.
