039 Sugar cheese with cherries 1

A sunny day gradually rose.

Ning Ying actually didn't wake up too late—but after listening to the minion, she realized that the fourth master had been gone for nearly an hour.

After a brief wash, breakfast was served.

A room of frontyard minions waited, somewhat restrained.

So Ning Ying didn't let go of eating, and tasted a red crispy ball cake from the honey mountain - it was too dry and a little choking.

She simply drank a few sips of porridge and put down her chopsticks.

The consequence of not eating well is: on the way back, walking and walking, Ning Ying felt a little hungry......

Before she reached the door of the house, from a distance, Ning Ying saw a fluffy ball lying at the door of the courtyard where Gege lived.

Then the ball was facing her direction, and suddenly trembled, and instantly changed two ears, and stood up with a snort.

It's the little ravioli waiting for her!

The little wonton didn't see the owner last night, and it didn't fall asleep all night, and when it saw the owner coming back, not to mention how excited it was—it pounced on Ning Ying's legs, desperately fluttering its little claws to hug it.

Ning Ying immediately lifted it high and pressed it to her face with the little wonton.

Little Wonton's eyes were filled with tears tightly, and he looked very aggrieved.

Shovel, where have you gone again!

Ning Ying touched its puppy head for a long time, and then tossed and turned in her arms like holding a baby.

The little wonton finally calmed down.

Ning Ying suddenly thought that the dog rice with the little wontons and ink marks had not yet been prepared.

It just so happened that she didn't eat enough in the morning, so she simply asked Ting'er to go to the dining room again to bring a breakfast back, and by the way, she also prepared the ingredients for the dog's dog rice.

After a while, Ting'er went out with the food box.

Although she has been carrying food more often now and is gradually familiar with the way to the dining room, she is still a little nervous when she walks alone in the back garden.

Thankfully, Wu Gege's maidservant, Siyun, had told her a few paths that only the minions knew about - not only to take shortcuts, but also to avoid other masters she might encounter in the back garden.

Ting'er quickened her pace, and only when she got into the leafy path did she pat her chest and breathe a sigh of relief.

In the dining room, it was the busiest time in the morning, and the copper stove on the stove was boiling hot soup, and the air was filled with a slightly choking smoke and fire.

The miscellaneous eunuchs pushed small carts and sweated profusely on the path next to the dining room to send all kinds of miscellaneous goods, some of which were piled with firewood, and some of which were sent to the kitchen of vegetables and fruits.

Ting'er looked carefully at her feet, carefully avoiding it.

Then she looked up and saw Lux standing across from her, smiling at her.

Ting'er grinned suddenly.

She is most familiar with this kind and sleek little brother in the dining room - with this little brother here, she is not afraid to carry food!

Ting'er immediately jumped over, stuck to the back of Lux like a fart, counted her fingers, was very serious, and said with a general endorsement: "Gege said, if there is, I want to mention some sweet and glutinous pastries - don't be too dry and crispy, and the porridge should be sweet." ”

Lux nodded while listening, pondered for a moment, and said in his heart: If it is according to this request, it is not impossible to prepare it in the morning in the dining room today.

But it has to be sweet and soft, and it can't be dry......

In this way, only three pastries meet the requirements.

There are three things in this food box, and you can't make up one of the four things that you want - it doesn't look good, does it?

If he changes to another personality - if it doesn't look good, it won't look good, so he doesn't want to be verbose!

But Ning Gege has just entered the eyes of the fourth master, and she can't afford to be lazy.

Thinking like this, Lux groaned a little and asked Ting'er: "It has to be sweet and soft, and it can't be dry...... Is annatto steamed cheese okay? ”

Ting'er was a cluebreaker, and she was a little dazed when she heard it.

She hesitated for a moment, and asked Lux humbly: "Is it delicious?" ”

Lux smiled: "Try it!" ”

As he spoke, he had already led Ting'er to the stove room, uncovered the bowl in the same way, and loaded the pastries and desserts for Gege.

When the sugar steamed cheese was brought over, before the lid was opened, Ting'er already smelled the strong milk fragrance.

She couldn't help but swallow.

When the bowl was opened, I saw that the white and greasy milk inside was like grease, and the center part was sprinkled with red beans and wolfberries, the color was like rouge, and you could faintly smell the aroma of rice brewed with wine.

Lux motioned to the little eunuch to help Ting'er pack all the pastries, and brought a large basket of fresh cherries that had been newly delivered to the dining room in the morning and stuffed them to Ting'er.

The cherries are not very large, but they are bright red and translucent, full and uniform in size, and grow on bright green fruit stalks, lifting them like carrying a large string of red agate balls.

Under the basket, there are ice cubes taken from the freezer, and the cold air goes up and condenses on the peel of the cherries, which sets off a gorgeous cold feeling.

It's so pretty!

Ting'er's eyes lit up.

When Ting'er returned to the yard, she took out all the things she had brought back.

Qing Yang had just waited for Hao Ning Ying to comb her hair in a bun, and she was changing her clothes at this time—the buttons were all buttoned.

Ning Ying stepped out of it while arranging her cuffs, and at first glance she saw the cochineal steamed cheese on the table.

"What is this?" She looked closer and asked Ting'er with interest.

Ting'er held her hands behind her back and repeated it to her word by word: "Gege, this is 'Rouge Sugar Steamed Cheese'"

Ning Ying was happy when she heard it, this looks very much like the palace version of double-skin milk, it is smooth and greasy, it must be delicious!

Qingyang came over to help Ting'er take out the cherries, handed the coarse cloth handkerchief to Ting'er, and asked Ting'er to wipe her hands.

A large bunch of cherries fell heavily, and because it was cold, Ting'er's fingertips were still slightly red from the cold.

Ning Ying's heart suddenly moved.

She thought of a traditional dish that she had recommended on the homepage of her food app: sugar cheese and cherries.

Sugar cheese with cherries - to put it simply, when eating cherries, with cheese.

This way of eating was available in the Three Kingdoms at the latest.

Subsequently, the Tang people followed the custom of the Northern Dynasty - they were accustomed to eating dairy products, so when the nobles tasted cherries, they would also pour cheese on them.

Because the taste is very wonderful, this way of eating has been passed down forever, so the Song Dynasty will have the words: "Yesterday's cheese will be cooked, and today's cherry blossoms can be eaten." ", "Inner Garden Zhu Ying and Cheese Gift" and so on.

After eating breakfast, Ning Ying began to stare at the cherries with her hands behind her back, and began to ponder the sugar cheese and pour the cherries.

The first step starts with corring.

After washing her hands, she first soaked the cherries in warm salt water, and after washing them several times, Ning Ying held down the cherries and used the cold tip of the knife to draw a circle along the side.

Then use your fingertips to stick to the sides and gently twist to separate the flesh slightly.

With a little more exertion, the nucleus is pinched out.

It sounds easy, but it's actually hard to do: it's a very clever way to do it.

If the strength is great, the flesh will inevitably be crushed; If the strength is small, it will not achieve the purpose of denuclearization.
