Chapter 117, love never forgets
She said to Fan Xinghai, "I'm alone in this small shop, I'm a little busy cooking right away, my child's skin is always noisy, can Li Shusheng lend me your little junior brother and let him play with my child for a while." β
Although this request is not excessive, it is not good to make decisions for others, Li Zhaogui looked at his junior brother with an inquiring face.
Fan Xinghai nodded, and Li Zhaogui said, "Little junior brother, let's go." β
"Yes."
Liu Ruyue took Fan Xinghai into the store, and Li Zhaogui began to choose people in the crowd to eat together......
Everyone doesn't know what to eat in Liu Ruyue's restaurant now, except for the people who are good at drinking, everyone else just wants to pair couplets, or watch the excitement.
The ingredients were all prepared by Liu Ruyue a long time ago, and within half an hour of entering the kitchen, twelve dishes were served.
Li Zhaogui also knew what Liu Ruyue was doing with such a gimmick when she opened today, so the table she chose was the one next to the door.
Everyone didn't look forward to the dishes of this small restaurant, and she could still make a flower to come out.
There are no flowers, but the fragrance of vegetables wafting out is not lighter than the fragrance of flowers.
"What kind of dish is this, why does it smell so good?"
"Why is there a circle of green orange slices in that fish?"
"That's not orange slices, it's lemon slices."
"Huh~, lemon is so sour, can you eat it?"
The oily man looked around and looked into the strange good deeds, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he twitched the fan and tapped it on the palm of his hand.
Snorted, "That's it?" It smells fragrant, but it is carved and plated, but so, at best, it is at the level of home-cooked side dishes. β
"But this table of dishes, I have never seen several of the top ten restaurants in the capital."
The man with a shiny face didn't care, "Who knows if she's so well matched, whether it's delicious or not, it's just eye-catching." β
At this time, Liu Ruyue walked out with a tray, and the two dishes on it attracted everyone's attention.
Someone with good eyes recognized it at a glance, "What's that?" A round one, said to be a cake, but it is so thick, and it is sprinkled with matcha powder. β
A scholar also wondered, "We have always used tea to drink, how can she use it to cook?" It's slightly astringent, and if you eat it in a dish, can it be delicious? β
"It's all a mess of combinations, in order to make a name for yourself in the capital, it's really a fool's errand, and so many good ingredients have been wasted in vain." After following the oily scholar, a slightly chubby scholar was indignant.
The discussion of everyone outside the door did not affect the good mood of everyone in the store.
As far as the scholars of Xinquan Academy are concerned, today's couplet can come out before Xuanwen Academy, they have already won a big victory, and they really don't care if this meal is good or not.
Li Zhaogui also came for the jade liquor.
The dishes served on the table now are indeed unusual, but the proprietress said that the dishes are not yet complete and cannot be eaten, and they also stay on the table in a proper manner and enjoy the sour words of those people outside the door.
They attacked Shi Niang's restaurant, didn't they just want to prove that Xinquan Academy won the pair and didn't make any money.
So at this moment, seeing the strange food served by the proprietress, Li Zhaogui was still in a good mood, and asked curiously, "Shi Niang, what kind of dish is this?" β
Liu Ruyue didn't dare to speak to the matcha cake, in case she inhaled the matcha powder, it would be uncomfortable.
After serving the two desserts on the tray, he smiled and introduced, "This paste is a rose snow fungus cake, which is also made with the method of mille-feuille cake, with water chestnut powder, rose petals, and white fungus boiled and fused. β
People who can study are not poor people who can't eat three meals, horseshoe mille-feuille cake, many of them have also eaten, listening to her explanation, it is easy to understand.
Liu Ruyue pointed to the dessert they were most concerned about and explained, "This dish is a matcha mille-feuille cake, I made 21 layers, a layer of cream, a layer of pie crust, and chilled it with ice cubes, this dessert can be said to be the most energy-consuming dish on this table." β
"These two desserts are eaten before the meal, and the matcha mille-feuille cake is sweeter than the rose snow fungus cake, so I'll give it to you."
Because the matcha mille-feuille cake has been chilled, it is no longer so soft, and it is also convenient for Liu Ruyue to cut it into eight equal fan-shaped pieces.
It looks particularly good from the side, with a layer of green pie crust and a layer of white cream, which gives people a great visual impact and makes people feel appetizing.
Liu Ruyue put the cakes on the plate and placed them in front of them one by one, "You try it, how does it taste." β
Li Zhaogui was looking forward to the wine the most, but at this moment, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva in the face of the cake that exuded the smell of milk and the smell of matcha.
Pick up a small iron spoon and rip a spoonful of cake from top to bottom, only to feel soft to the touch, melt in the mouth, fresh matcha flavored powder, dilute the sweet and greasy taste of fresh cream, the two flavors are mixed together, as if a natural pair, this is a feast for taste buds.
"Good!"
"Delicious!"
"I've never eaten pastries with such a texture, how can they be so delicious."
"Take a bite and close your eyes, as if you are in the forest in early spring, with some coolness and sweetness, but not on the top."
Fan Xinghai couldn't help but praise, "It's like when I was going green, I accidentally swallowed the clouds after the rain." β
Listening to the group of scholars in the room desperately praising this pastry that everyone didn't like, the sweet-loving people couldn't help it, "Is it really so delicious, you won't be afraid of losing face and deliberately praise it." β
"Senior Brother Li, let me take a bite!"
"Senior Brother Chen, let me take a bite."
The two older brothers who were named were embarrassed to eat by themselves and put down their spoons.
"You will not be able to eat it if you are in the upper and lower couplets yourself."
"Fight for yourself."
Although he said this, Li Zhaogui also picked up the plate, "Boss, can I give the food to the junior brothers?" β
Liu Ruyue turned her head to look at the scholars who were looking forward to it, and nodded, "I just said that there can only be eight people at the table, anyway, there are only so many meals, if you don't have enough to eat, you can give it to others, but you can't change people to serve it." β
Everyone looked at each other, and there is such a shop, which does not guarantee that the guests are full?
But when they think about it, this small restaurant is supported by the proprietress alone, and these dishes look very exquisite, and making ten tables a day is already the limit.
If she meets a person with a big stomach, she really can't be satisfied.
"Okay." Li Zhaogui took out his plate and handed it to the junior brother who was the first to ask him for food, "You divide it yourself, don't fight, lose the face of our Xinquan Academy." β
"No, senior brother, we are scholars, and it is impossible for us to do things that are insulting."
As soon as Li Zhaogui sat back at the table, he saw that the juniors and disciples almost fought over a piece of cake.
"Hey." Sighing and shaking his head, he looked at Senior Brother Chen.
