Chapter 200: Matcha Manju
Fortunately, yesterday I watched Chef Liang prepare the ingredients, and ordered many kinds of vegetables and fruits, and the recipes were all vegetarian snacks that barely used oil, but if it comes to the best to remove oil and water, you should still drink tea.
Tea is a rare product with the same price as honey in this world, and people still retain the habit of eating tea, so what Huamian has not been able to accept is that the practice of tea here still retains the same as introduced in the history books, adding condiments such as salt and garlic to boil, and chewing and eating together when drinking.
Just looking, Huamian can't accept it, I used to live in Sikong Mansion is a maid's canteen and has no chance to contact tea, and there is no tea when I come to Huajie, the only thing that can be called a drink in the building is wine, all kinds of wine, although Huamian doesn't hate wine, it can even be said that I like it very much, but I will also want to drink tea when I eat greasy.
The monthly money of the maid in the house is definitely not enough to buy tea, and the monthly money is a lot higher after coming to Huajie, in addition to the daily expenses, there can be some surplus every month, plus this Lanqiu Festival received a lot of tips from several regular customers, so I took out some money to ask Sikong Yu to buy tea back.
A part of the dried tea leaves is finely ground into powder, flour, eggs and fresh milk are added, stirred evenly and sprinkled with powdered sugar, kneaded into small balls and then kneaded into different shapes one by one, tried the temperature of the steamer, and carefully placed these small dough into it after some slight heat, originally wanted to make matcha steamed cakes, and what I saw after coming out of the pot was a full pot of matcha steamed fancy steamed buns.
"It's just in time, Li'er come over here, try this"
Li'er is walking out of the main building, ready to go to the flower stand to see the situation of cleaning up, after the last day of the performance, the flower stand will be dismantled, Li'er contacted the workers in advance to wait for the end of the Lanqiu Festival to dismantle the flower stand overnight.
As soon as he came out, he was stopped by Hua Mian, "What is this?" Can you eat this? Looking at the green that was still steaming in the pot in front of him... Steamed bread? But what's the deal with this strange green?
Huamian himself also expressed his puzzlement about the appearance of this steamed steamed bun, and he also made matcha steamed cakes in the original world, and he has never encountered this situation, is there something strange about the tea? It's no different to try it before you do it, but after steaming a few pots in a row, there are no exceptions - all steamed buns.
Huamian repeatedly promised that there would be no problem, and Li'er picked up a piece of steamed bread in disbelief and took a bite, "It's so soft, it's the first time I've eaten this kind of soft steamed bun."
But in fact, this is a steamed cake, Hua Mian couldn't help complaining.
"It's just this taste, how to say it, it's like something you've eaten, and you added hoof grass juice?"
"It's not hoofed grass, but you reminded me to try it with hoof grass juice next time."
"But if it's not hoof-shaped grass, this grass-like one..."
"I use tea"
Hearing Hua Mian say that this steamed bun actually uses tea leaves, Li'er took another bite, she had eaten tea with Sikong Yu a few times when she was in Sikong Mansion before, and the tea in her impression was not this taste.
"How can tea be so light, isn't it..."
"Salty, bitter and a pungent taste? That method is indeed tea, but there are too many seasonings to taste the taste of tea at all, this steamed bun only uses tea powder when mixing noodles, that is, the powder after crushing the dried tea leaves"
"Tea is such a delicious thing?" , Li'er said and took another bite of the steamed bun, and after a moment of aftertaste, she seemed to suddenly remember something, "Now is not the time to eat steamed bread."
