The daily life of the kitchen god 020
"Queen Mother, you take a short rest, and the slave will prepare some wine and some pastries for you later." After that, Hua Yu helped the Queen Mother to sit down, she looked out the window, thinking that Cui'er should be back soon.
The moment she saw Cui'er, Hua Yu's whole person was overjoyed, came to Cui'er, and looked at the ingredients in her hand.
"Cui'er, just now the Queen Mother gave me a piece of jade pendant, she said, as long as you have this jade pendant, then you can freely enter the Queen Mother's bedroom, and this side hall is also free for us to choose."
Cui'er held Hua Yu's hand tightly, and her eyes rolled.
"What's wrong with you, isn't that good?"
Cui'er shook her head, wiped away her tears like a child, and pinched her nose, "No, it's Cui'er who is happy for Yu'er." ”
"You, you, how old are you, still like a child, don't cry, go do things with me, when the queen mother is in a hurry, why do you suddenly have to slide through like water."
"Uh-huh!"
In this way, the two of them together, Hua Yu chose a place that was relatively remote from the Queen Mother's bedroom, the so-called common and tired, short to see relatives.
The world pursues the same principle, and if it lasts for a long time, it will be tired, and if it is new, it will be happy.
Hua Yu chose a relatively remote side hall.
This hall is called Wuxin Pavilion.
As soon as they entered the Wuxin Pavilion, Hua Yu and Cui'er immediately ran to the kitchen, and the ingredients in their hands were expecting to become the food on the plate.
The nutritious soup made by Huayu this time is not full of bells and whistles.
The Queen Mother is weak, if it is too bells and whistles, maybe the Queen Mother will not like it very much, but it is some ordinary things, which are pleasing to the eye.
Once you enter the old age, then you will look down on all kinds of things in the world, and the Queen Mother is the same, if you play some clever tricks in front of the Queen Mother, bells and whistles, then the Queen Mother will definitely be irritable, and when the time comes, the flower rain will be cool.
Not long ago, Hua Yu's little trick was seen through by the Queen Mother, and if she made some small moves in front of the Queen Mother, she would definitely feel impatient.
"Cui'er, you peel this winter melon, clean it later, and put it aside when the time comes, I'll boil the water first, and then make some dipping sauce, hey, I don't know if there are peppercorns here?"
"Sichuan pepper?"
"Yes, Sichuan pepper can enhance the flavor, there is a feeling of numbness, the more hemp peppercorns its taste is stronger, and when it is integrated into the soup, it will have some crispy numbness."
"Yu'er, you wait for me, I'll take a look, I don't know if there are peppercorns in this imperial dining room."
"Hmm" Hua Yu nodded, and then she picked up the spoon and made some green onions, ginger and garlic.
The Queen Mother is weak and should drink more hot soup.
When Cui'er brought the peppercorns, she told Cui'er to do something again.
"By the way, Cui'er, you brought the recipe of the Queen Mother to the imperial dining room recently, I forgot it just now, I'm really sorry to trouble you again." Hua Yu rubbed her head and apologized, she really forgot just now, she knew that she should have asked Cui'er to go to the imperial dining room and brought the recipe and peppercorns directly, so she didn't have to make another trip.
"It's okay Miss, you're the chef, I'm an errand runner, of course, I'll go, compared to staying in this Wuxin Pavilion with you, Cui'er doesn't need to look at other people's faces!"
Cui'er thinks about it in her heart, and now she finally doesn't have to see that mama, let alone look at her face, maybe this mama will have to look at their faces when the time comes.
"Your mouth is so sweet, go quickly, when the time comes, we will go to see the Queen Mother with our heads up!"
Cui'er left with a grin, and then Hua Yu began to make pastries while cooking.
This pastry is very simple, and it is very easy to make, not that it is almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I don't know if there was a Mid-Autumn Festival in ancient times.
Hua Yu thought about it carefully, this moon cake should not be heard of by the people here, and must not have tasted it, the day of the full moon is a symbol of auspiciousness.
This ancient person is the new one.
If you make a unique one in this palace and then create your own mooncake, everyone will definitely know it at that time.
In and outside the palace, if her deeds spread all over the palace, then the title of the kitchen god should definitely not be far away.
Hua Yu thought to herself that this moon cake must be varied, as for what filling, it depends on whether the Queen Mother can digest it, if it is too complicated, it will be difficult to digest at that time, then the next thing...
People who have a bad stomach, if they eat too many moon cakes, they may have diarrhea, and they may also have indigestion that causes her to be anorexic, the Queen Mother has reached a certain age, if you eat too much, it will definitely be bad for your health, it is better to wrap some fruit filling or vegetables.
Although this is not very delicious, but easy to digest, in comparison, those meat may be eaten too much, which is not very good for the body of the Queen Mother, but it must be indispensable.
In the end, Hua Yu thought about it carefully, so she thought about making only one or two meat fillings, and then the others made fruit or vegetable fillings. That's all there is to it.
This dough has been fermented yesterday, and it can be used directly, if you wait until today to make the dough in person, it will take a certain amount of time, I'm afraid the Queen Mother can't wait that long.
Shape the dough into a small lump, then knead it into a ball, then roll it out with a rolling pin, sprinkle with a little flour, and let it aside.
On the other hand, the flower language makes the filling, and then mixes the exclusive honey sauce inside.
This mooncake filling is salty, sweet, and slightly spicy.
In addition to these three, the others are all fruit fillings and some vegetable fillings that have never been tried before.
Carefully wrapped them one by one in order, and then picked up the mold that had been made a few days ago, and the mold was engraved with the word moon cake, which she carefully carved not long ago.
Because thinking that the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming? So I thought about making moon cakes, but there were no ready-made tools, so I had to engrave them myself.
She printed the mold and pressed it on the dough she had just reconciled, and a round mooncake came out, which didn't look very bad.
Hua Yu looked at the carefully printed moon cake in front of her with satisfaction, and began to steam it in the pot after a while.
In ancient times, there was no machine for making moon cakes, so it could only be made according to the methods of ordinary people, and there may be some differences with modern moon cakes, but it should not be very large.
When Cui'er came back, she happily handed the recipe to Hua Yu's hand.
Suddenly, she noticed the carefully made round cakes on the table.
"What is this thing? I saw what you were carving a few days ago, I thought it was a toy you made, but I didn't expect it to be used to make food, what kind of principle is this? ”
"This is called a mold, and it is something that can be used to make mooncakes!"
"Molds? Then this mold..."Cui'er picked up the mooncake, then looked at it and said, "Is this a mooncake Yu'er?" Why is he called Mooncake? There's no moon in there, it's just an ordinary round cake, and it looks pretty thick! Does it taste like a stone? ”
"When the time comes, you will know if you taste it!" Hua Yu sneered.
Looking at the two big-character moon cakes on this round cake, Cui'er felt for a while that there was really nothing strange in the world.
"Yu'er, can I taste this mooncake for the first time?"
"Of course you can taste it for the first time! It's not that the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming..."
Cui'er suddenly thought that this was indeed the case, and the Mid-Autumn Festival seemed to be coming.
"Yu'er, I almost forgot when you said this, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, and in the past Mid-Autumn Festival, Cui'er admired the moon with the lord and the ladies. Now that I am alone in a foreign land, there are some who miss their masters! ”
"Cui'er, don't you still have me?"
Cui'er smiled with satisfaction, and then hugged Hua Yu into her arms.
Miss is still Miss, Cui'er is just a little maid, and Miss can treat Cui'er as a sister, which is the happiest thing for her. And the so-called relatives, Miss is.
No matter where she is, as long as there is a young lady, it is the happiest time for Cui'er.
"Yu'er, you are my best relative, no matter where you are, as long as you are there, then Cui'er is happy!"
Hua Yu was stunned for a moment, and then buried her head silently, busy with the moon cakes in her hands, how much she loved each other to be able to become relatives.
Hua Yu didn't dare to treat Cui'er as her closest person, because she was afraid that she would lose it, because she knew that this was just a task arranged by the system, and after the task was over, Cui'er might no longer remember her name, and what she had experienced with her, she might only remember the time she spent with Hua Yu, but not the days with her Ling Muxue.
Thinking about it like this, she suddenly felt that she hadn't seen her relatives for a long time, and if she wanted to talk about relatives, the closest one was her mother and mother, who had children. It was her mother who pulled her up with a handful of and urine.
And now it's really desolate to be in a different place, she can't go back, maybe the world has changed when she goes back, it has become incredible, maybe she doesn't belong to that era, maybe she will stay between the systems forever, always doing tasks, feeling family, love, friendship, although these don't belong to her, but at least once experienced.
Different joys and sorrows, different loves, hatreds, and hatreds, different entanglements, as if reincarnation.
Life like a machine, although it will be disgusted, although it will be disgusted, but if you get used to it, you will get used to it, and you would rather live in the system than return to that strange world, maybe if you can make her do it all over again, yes, she is still willing, maybe that time will end her life.
But at the same time, she will cherish the life in front of her more, and her limited life to love more people, care for her mother, get close to this society, and help those in need.
Everything seems insignificant, but it's still willing.
"Miss, why are you distracted again?"
"Rain?"
"Ah, what's wrong? I'm so embarrassed that I'm distracted again! ”
"It's been like this a lot lately, and I don't know what's going on, maybe I'm too homesick, I miss my dad too much!"
"Cui'er also misses the master and them, although sometimes Mrs. is not good to Cui'er, but she is still used to it, after all, she has been away from there for many days, and I don't know if I can get out of the palace in the future."
"We'll definitely be able to leave the palace, but it's going to be very rare! This journey home will also take a few days to be sure, and if you leave the palace, you won't be allowed to take such a long time! ”
Cui'er looked at the mooncakes on the chopping board in disappointment.
"But it doesn't matter, when I become a chef in the future, I will definitely have a chance to go out then! Think about it, if I become a god of cooking, when the emperor travels or the queen mother travels, we can still travel around the world with them! Maybe you can taste different foods from different worlds, and then follow me to eat and drink spicy food! ”
When it comes to ancient food, there are many kinds of common practices, and Hua Yu is still very interested, after all, in ancient times, meat was the mainstay, whether it was beef or pork or chicken, duck and fish, they made a big lump of meat.
Eating meat and being addicted to it is a beautiful thing.
"In the future, we will be blessed and share hardships, as long as my sister has a bite to eat, there will be no less soup for you!" Hua Yu was as big as a modern person and patted Cui'er on the shoulder, and Cui'er was startled by Hua Yu.
Seeing this Cui'er's eyes dodging, she was even a little scared, and then Hua Yu realized that she seemed to have done something too much.
She unnaturally removed her hand and then put her hand behind her back, and then looked at Cui'er in embarrassment, "Don't worry, I won't let you down, I will definitely take you to taste the food of the whole world when the time comes!" ”
"Cui'er believes that Yu'er will definitely be able to do it!"
"Okay, this mooncake is almost done, tell me what flavor you want to eat when the time comes! I'll get it for you. ”
"If Yu'er puts this moon cake on the day of moon appreciation, will it be more meaningful, the moon is wrapped in the moon cake, it will definitely attract the emperor's attention!"
There is no need for Cui'er to say that Huayu also knows, after all, in ancient times, there was no such thing as moon cakes, if it was placed in front of the emperor, the emperor would definitely praise it. When the time comes, it will be one step closer to being a chef.
"It seems that our family Cui'er has observed very carefully, this moon cake is indeed planned by me a long time ago! On the day of moon appreciation, if you take out this moon cake, you will definitely be able to please the emperor at that time! ”
"Cui'er must have been following Yu'er for a long time, so even if she is very stupid, she will become smart! It's called influence! ”
"I'm embarrassed to say that again! Hurry up, put that winter melon in the pot! Then the low heat is slowly boiled, and when the time comes, the Queen Mother can melt in her mouth when she eats! Then sprinkle a little chopped green onion, and ginger pepper! ”
"By the way, I beat two eggs just now, and I'll use them to make a few dishes when the time comes."
"How many dishes do eggs make?"
"At first glance, you are short of knowledge! Don't look at this single egg, there are so many tricks she can make! Have you ever heard of omelet rice? ”
Cui'er couldn't imagine how this egg could wrap white rice?
"Yu'er, I'm afraid you're not teasing me, how can this little egg wrap rice? Cui'er is not so stupid and will not be easily deceived. ”
