Chapter 300: Boiled Fish (Medium)
It was so interesting, Concubine Jing couldn't help but feel good, and after seeing her brother's uneasy appearance, she said, "If you don't worry, why don't you go over and have a look?" ”
"It's... It's not very polite", the family members of the concubine still have to be more restrained at the moon viewing banquet, although Sikong Yu is also worried about the condition of Huamian, and at the same time wants to see how she looks after makeup, but she is now wearing women's clothes, and it is not appropriate to look around and look around.
"Worry about the past, if someone asks, they say that they went to see it on behalf of the palace, and the palace is the master of the palace, and he is worried that the people in his palace are normal, and others will never say anything."
Sikong Yu thought about it, it was indeed reasonable, nodded to Concubine Jing and thanked him, then stood up and walked to the stove in front of him.
Hua Mian cut the processed fish into thick pieces of fillets, put them in a porcelain basin at hand and knead the starch.
"See her knife work when she cuts fish? It's rough."
"It's not beautiful at all when it's cut so thick"
"But look at her movements are quite smooth, after all, she is a chef"
"The person who can be favored by Concubine Jing Niangniang may be found casually?"
"I said I used a seasoning called chili pepper, and this is the first time I've heard of it."
Sikong Yu relied on his height advantage to be able to see the situation next to the stove at a glance without squeezing too far forward, but it was easy to hear these people talking to each other when he stood behind, but what they said made Sikong Yu also curious, isn't this chili pepper the culprit who was kicked out of Sikong Mansion in the first place? To this day, she still hasn't given up trying to use this spice?
Since it was made in front of the Imperial Palace, it was a rare time for Huamian to not listen to the chatter around her when she was cooking in public, but she didn't care about listening to it at all according to her current high nervousness.
After marinating, the fish fillets are first fried in a pan at low temperature, and then poured into another pot with various vegetables and fried a few times before being served, and then the broth with a large amount of fish bones in advance is filtered several times before returning to the pot to add seasonings.
Seeing that the originally milky white fish soup gradually darkened after a handful of red powder was poured into Huamian, and finally turned red, Emperor Deyuan couldn't help but stretch his neck forward, wanting to see this magical transformation process clearly.
When the red fish soup began to tumble in the pot at a rapid pace, Hua Mian poured the fried fish fillets into the soup, and the golden fish fillets floated up and down in the red soup, causing people to nod their heads up and down.
The last step is to put the fish soup with the fish fillet into a porcelain bowl where the vegetables are fried in advance, and Hua Mian puts down the spoon used to hold the soup in his hand, as if he is very satisfied with his work.
The palace people on the side stepped forward again, took out a set of small silver tableware, and used a porcelain spoon to bring out the dishes in the soup pot and brought them to the front of the first person under Emperor Deyuan, who ate a few bites and the eyes of the whole audience converged on him.
"Nothing seems to be the case"
"This is in front of the emperor, and the amount of courage given to her will not do anything against Your Majesty."
After eating the dishes in the bowl, this person made a slight inhalation to attract the attention of the people around him, and immediately there was another round of discussion.
After eating the fish fillets in the bowl, the harem people picked up the water cup and drank it all, licking the fish residue on their mouths with some lingering aftertaste, "This taste is really unique, like using a lot of Sichuan pepper, but it is stronger than the flavor of Sichuan pepper"
