Chapter 90 Milk Tea Nourishes the Nine Princesses

The Ninth Princess recently had a new hobby, studying cooking. The reason is that she realizes that her sweetheart does not like to eat the food of the princess's house.

Xie Youyi is a standard southerner, with a light diet, usually eats more porridge and vegetables, and when he was sick, the cook was relatively careful, and tried to give him less oil, less salt and less meat when cooking, and when his body gradually recovered, the cook felt that this young man had to make up for it, so he let go of making meat, ten dishes per meal, at least nine of them had meat, and the remaining one had no meat? Because the remaining dish is milk tea.

The ninth princess is addicted to milk tea, drinking at least three bowls a day, Xie You thought to himself, no wonder the ninth princess has a round face, but she drinks milk tea every day.

The Northern Dynasties also love to drink tea, the difference is that the people of the Northern Dynasties love to drink milk tea, almost everyone has the habit of drinking milk tea, and the first thing people in the palace do when they wake up every morning is to boil milk tea. When Xie Youyi was unconscious under Yunling Pass, there was always a sweet milky fragrance lingering in his dreams, and he later pondered that it might be emanating from the Ninth Princess.

He guessed correctly, it was indeed the fragrance of milk tea on the Ninth Princess. The ninth princess had to sit on the edge of Xie Youyi's bed with a milk tea bowl every morning, staring at that handsome face and sipping carefully, so an hour passed unconsciously.

Boiling milk tea has to use the new clean water, the palace is exquisite, must have the well spring water to stand still, the water tank should also be soaked in one or two sections of incense, calamus root raised on the water surface, so that the water is sweet. After the water is boiled, the tea leaves are simmered for two or three minutes, and then the fresh milk and salt are mixed in, and the boil can be, and some families also like to add butter or milk skins, so that the taste is more fragrant and salty and delicious.

The people of the Northern Dynasties love milk tea until they don't eat for three days, but they can't drink milk tea for a day.

Xie You saw that the milk tea drunk by the ninth princess often added some red, red, green and green leaves, I don't know what it was for, probably to make it taste better?

In fact, these leaves are used to make incense and get tired. Although milk tea is good, it is also greasy to drink too much. In order to relieve the greasy, drinking milk tea will be accompanied by a kind of fruit, which is said to ferment fresh milk until it is shaped like a tofu brain, add an appropriate amount of butter and sugar and stir well, then put in flour and continue to stir, when all the flour is stirred up into a ball, it will be fermented for half an hour. Then roll out into slices, cut into thick strips and fry them in boiling butter or flax oil. This fruit tastes crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, lightly sour and fragrant, and very chewy.

Xie Youyi also gradually adapted to the eating habits of the Northern Dynasty, and he couldn't accept the Northern Dynasty food, but he could occasionally drink half a bowl of milk tea, and no matter how much he felt, he felt greasy.

Women in the Northern Dynasty love to drink milk tea, which is incredible in the Southern Dynasty, and the women of the Southern Dynasty regard thinness as beauty, and neither dare to eat more nor let go of eating.

In the past, Emperor Cheng was a slender concubine, and Zhao Jieyu in his harem was the most slender, light as a swallow, and according to legend, she could dance in the palm of her hand.

Not only women are beautiful because they are thin, but also because they are thin for men. The famous Zhanghua Palace, also known as the Slender Waist Palace, was built by Emperor Ling. Emperor Ling likes to read people with a slender waist, in order to have a thin waist that Yingying can hold, the courtiers only eat one meal a day, and they are so hungry that they can't stand up. The person sitting on the mat has to stand up, and he has to hold on to the wall, and the person sitting in the carriage has to stand up, and he has to hold on to the wheel. Ren Zhen's delicious food was in front of him, everyone couldn't help but eat it, and in order to be thin and thin, even if they starved to death, they were willing.

Probably drinking milk and eating meat since childhood, the skeleton of the women of the Northern Dynasty is always more stretched and wider than that of the women of the Southern Dynasties, and a petite girl like the Ninth Princess, and a girl of the Southern Dynasties of the same size, the Ninth Princess must be more plump.

Eating every day is a time when Xie Youyi is more painful, and he always can't swallow. But fortunately recently, the ninth princess is obsessed with cooking these days, and always makes some strange foods for Xie Youyi to try, most of these strange foods are tasted in the Southern Dynasties, Xie Youyi thinks that it is much more light and delicious than those meat, milk, and food. In fact, his mouth is still relatively picky, after all, he was born in wealth and grew up in wealth, and now he has fallen to this point, but he can't help but pick and choose.

In fact, there are also delicious foods in the Northern Dynasties, such as a kind of food called Qianli preserved that he ate under the Yunling Pass, which is said to be well prepared in the army. Qianli preserved to be made in the cold winter of Sanjiu, take the pork ribs and keep hammering, hammering must not be stained with moisture, after drying, go to the oil slick and spine belly sac inside, rub through the skin with frosting, and wipe the surrounding fertilizer, you can also use salt to smear, but it is easy to ferment after a long time, and then hang it in a ventilated and cool place. When eating, cook or add salt sauce to simmer, the taste is extremely fragrant, especially suitable for virtual people to eat and nourish. This kind of food is extremely satiating, and eating a small piece of the fist can fill the stomach for a day, Xie You thought that the Northern Dynasty actually had such a marching weapon, and how much food could be transported with such a heavy load.

The grain transportation lines of the Southern Dynasties were too long, and he was quite helpless. He can't ignore it like Ye Gushui, and eat wherever he wants. The saint is determined to move the Yongzhou area, why doesn't he want to put the northern granary into the hands of the state? How much more convenient it is to fight like this.

When the ninth princess came with a food box, Xie Youyi was picking up an idle book and had just turned two pages. The ninth princess's thin arms and legs struggled to carry the food box, and she was stunned to not let Wu Duo, who followed next to her, help, she used her strength to lift the food box and put it on the table, opened the lid of the box excitedly, and pointed to Xie You, "You, eat." ”

The Chinese language of the ninth princess is limited to simple words, and she communicates a lot, and Xie Youyi can guess what she means from her eye movements.

Xie You raised his eyes and looked at it, but it turned out to be a rather delicate dim sum, with a yellow color, all made in the style of flowers.

Well, the Ninth Princess's craft has grown more and more.

In the past, when the ninth princess first made food and sent it over, Xie Youyi refused, after all, she was also a dignified princess, and she was busy in the smoky kitchen like her subordinates.

Yuan Kecai is not in charge, he is busy with the new government's agency personnel setup.

Xie Youyi doesn't want to deal with the ninth princess more, but this ninth princess is like kraft candy, the more she rejects her, the more frustrated and courageous, if you ignore her, she will move her hands and feet, poke and poke a little bit on her body, you read a book, she is chattering next to her, you pour tea, she holds the teapot and does not let go, she has to force you to talk to her. Gradually, Xie Youyi also figured it out, as long as she let her and cooperate with her, she was still quite well-behaved.

Raised his hand and pinched a piece and took a bite, the orange fragrance was fragrant, sweet and soft, and it was surprisingly delicious. Normally, he just tasted it, but today this snack has hooked his taste buds and appetite.

Seeing that he had finished eating a piece, the Ninth Princess's happy eyes were shining, and that look seemed to be saying whether it was delicious or not?

Xie Youyi asked, "What kind of dim sum is this?" The taste is not bad. ”

The ninth princess didn't understand, and Wu Duo hurriedly replied, "The saint gave the princess a basket of oranges at noon, and the princess made this, and she didn't have a name. ”

Xie Youyi smiled rarely, "The Ninth Princess has gradually mastered the tricks of cooking." ”

Wu Duo stumbled on the translation, and the ninth princess's face turned a little red when she heard this. Picking and picking on the edge of the table, for a long time, she held back, "You, I, learn." ”

Seeing that Xie You's eyes were confused, the Ninth Princess quickly said something in the Northern Dynasty, and Wu Duo smiled and said, "General Xie, the Ninth Duke wants you to teach her Chinese." ”
