Chapter 644: Cooking Skills
The antidote was given to the poisoned people, and then, according to the improvements, it was put into the upper reaches of the moat.
This also solves the problem of toxins in the water.
"Now that the situation in the county has been dealt with, we will arrange it again recently, and it is time to go back." After Rong Yan saw Zhao Yunling come back, he told her.
Zhao Yunling also thought about it this way, after all, Rong Yan is the emperor of Dongwen Kingdom, and there are still many things to deal with, and it is not so easy to say it.
"Okay, I'll arrange the seeds and sacs, and see how the people are recovering, and then we'll leave."
Rong Yan nodded.
Zhao Yunling made so many arrangements, everyone guessed that she was leaving, especially the people in the city, they were very reluctant, but they all knew that Zhao Yunling did not belong here, and sooner or later he would leave.
Ye Lang heard the news and found Zhao Yunling: "Madam, are you leaving?" ”
Zhao Yunling saw Ye Lang, smiled, and patted her shoulder: "What I said to you counts, even if I leave, you can stay here forever, no one will trouble you, you can live in peace, and when you want to leave, you can talk about it." ”
Seeing Ye Lang's unhappy appearance, Zhao Yunling pulled her to sit down: "If you miss me, go to the imperial city of Dongwen to find me, I always welcome you." ”
"When the lady leaves, I'll see you off." Ye Lang knew Zhao Yunling's intentions, and did not continue to be reluctant.
Zhao Yunling shook his head: "It's not settled yet, but I'll tell you when I leave." ”
Zhao Yunling spent a day arranging things in the city: "Let's leave tomorrow." ”
"Don't worry, you've been busy for a while, and you haven't rested yet, so take a good rest tomorrow and then set off." Rong Yan felt sorry for Zhao Yunling and rejected her words.
After resting for a day, before dawn the next day, Zhao Yunling, Rong Yan and others prepared things and prepared to go on the road.
Because they were afraid that the people in the city would send each other, Zhao Yunling and the two discussed getting up early and leaving, and now most of the people in the county town have not woken up, only some hawkers.
"No need to send it, if you have a chance to go to Dongwen, I'll take you around." Zhao Yunling said to Ye Lang, who came to see him off.
"Okay, be careful on your way." As he spoke, he nodded towards Rong Yan.
The two of them were not in a hurry to go back, they looked at the surrounding scenery by the way, and when they arrived at the imperial city, the two of them cleaned up, and then Zhao Yunling went to the dim sum shop, and Rong Yan returned to the palace.
"Ling'er girl, you're back." The Li family was very happy to see Zhao Yunling.
Zhao Yunling sat down with the Li family, and then Zhao Yunling asked about the business.
"Needless to say, the things you make are naturally here, our reputation is here, and the people next to us can't compare, but speaking of which, the restaurant we opened across from us came over from time to time to ask if you had come back." Li said as he handed the ledger to Zhao Yunling.
Zhao Yunling believed in Li's family, and did not open it, but was interested in the one who came to inquire about her.
"When I came, I did notice the restaurant, it seems that the business is not bad, there are a lot of people." Zhao Yunling said.
Li agreed: "Yes, they all say that his family makes delicious food, and the things are not expensive, and the boss is also very good at business." ”
Just as he was talking, Li suddenly laughed: "It's quite casual chatter, isn't this coming." ”
Zhao Yunling looked up and saw a middle-aged man, walked in, the man glanced at Zhao Yunling, and then asked Li: "Is your boss back?" ”
"That's it." Li Shi pointed at Zhao Yunling.
The man looked at Zhao Yunling, as if it was not different from what he imagined, his face was disgusted, and he was suspicious: "You are the owner of the dim sum shop?" ”
"I heard you were looking for me?" Zhao Yunling asked rhetorically.
The man said disdainfully: "I heard that your skills are very good, I want to learn from you, will you dare to agree." ”
"What would I not dare, but what good is it to promise you? Why should I promise you. ”
The man thought for a moment, then said, "If I win, I ask you to provide free dim sum to my restaurant, and if I lose, I will cook your dim sum shop, although I don't think you will win." ”
When Zhao Yunling heard it, he thought it was funny, although this man had an arrogant attitude, he provoked her every word, as if he was afraid that she would not agree.
Interesting, I simply agreed to him.
"Then it's decided, your dim sum shop is too small, let's try it in my restaurant, what do you need to bring, prepare it yourself, and save me from doing small actions." The man thought for a moment and added, "I will inform the people to come and witness that day, and when they are done, they will give it to the people present to taste, and then let them judge whether they win or lose." ”
"Yes, I have no opinion."
"Then I'll see you then, don't say I didn't give you time to prepare!"
"Ling'er girl, you just promised him?" Waiting for the man to leave, Li asked.
"Seeing that although he has an arrogant attitude, there is no malice in his eyes, and whether he wins or loses it doesn't affect me much, it sounds funny, so I agreed." Seeking Chinese
Zhao Yunling and the man agreed in advance that the venue of the competition was in the restaurant, so Zhao Yunling took his usual tools in advance, although Zhao Yunling felt that it didn't matter if he won or lost, but it was impossible to be perfunctory.
Zhao Yunling told Rong Yan about this when he went back, and after Rong Yan listened: "If you want to play, just play, it doesn't matter if you win or lose, don't ask me, I support you." ”
Zhao Yunling didn't speak, and Rong Yan said again: "As long as you are safe and happy, I will support you." ”
"Alas!" Zhao Yunling sighed: "I feel that you are too used to me now." ”
Rong Yan smiled: "It's my honor to be used to you." ”
Zhao Yunling looked at Rong Yan's smile and looked stupid, after Rong Yan was with her, she often smiled, but she seemed to be unable to see enough.
What's more, Rong Yan doesn't often talk about love, the two of them get along naturally, and they don't need verbal confessions, but hearing Rong Yan say this, Zhao Yunling still can't help but want to blush.
After preparing the ingredients needed for the game, Zhao Yunling checked it again before the game.
On the day of the game, many people heard the news and came to the restaurant to watch the excitement.
The man, Lin Zhaoquan, was ready very early and waited for Zhao Yunling to come.
After Zhao Yunling came, Lin Zhaoquan said to the crowd watching the excitement: "Hello everyone, we all know that I will have a match with Mrs. Rong today, and the one next to me is Mrs. Rong, everyone should know Mrs. Rong, and I don't need to introduce me too much." ”
Then Lin Zhaoquan opened his mouth to talk about the rules of the competition: "I cook the dishes, and Mrs. Rong makes the snacks." Lin Zhaoquan had already inquired about Zhao Yunling's identity, but he only knew that she was the owner of the dim sum shop, and everyone called her Mrs. Rong, and nothing else was known.
interrupted his train of thought, and then continued to speak to everyone: "Time is two hours, when the time is up, stop, the prepared dishes are tasted by the five people on the scene, and then the winner is judged." ”
"If I win, Mrs. Rong will provide free dim sum to my restaurant for a year, and if I lose, I will be a chef for Mrs. Rong, although there is no written evidence, but I will never regret it."
Saying that, Lin Zhaoquan looked at Zhao Yunling: "Mrs. Rong doesn't have any questions, right?" ”
"Nope."
"Okay, let's ask Mrs. Rong to choose five people to be judged, I don't participate, I also believe in Mrs. Rong's character, and I won't do anything next." Lin Zhaoquan said, making a gesture of invitation to Zhao Yunling.
Zhao Yunling was not polite, and replied to Lin Zhaoquan's words before going down: "Naturally not." ”
After choosing the person, the two of them are ready, and the dim sum that Zhao Yunling is going to make is what he has just researched, because everyone prepares three things, so Zhao Yunling is ready to make a purple potato cake, a strawberry Dafu, and a red bean coconut milk cake, these things are simple to make, and the raw materials are easy to find.
The first thing to make is purple sweet potato cake, the raw materials are purple sweet potato, white sesame seeds, and a little vegetable oil, first peel the purple sweet potato, cut it into thick pieces, and steam it in a steamer.
In the process of steaming, Zhao Yunling was not idle, she was ready to make strawberry Daifuku, and the material requirements for strawberry Daifuku were not high, glutinous rice flour, caster sugar, salt and water.
Zhao Yunling first put the ingredients other than water into the basin, added water little by little depending on the hardness of the batter, mixed the dough with a hardness like an earlobe, and then peeled the dough into a block by hand and flattened it.
At this moment, the purple potatoes just now can be put out of the pot, and the dough is put into the steamer to steam.
Mash the purple sweet potato into a puree with a spoon, knead it into balls, press it into a cake, put a little vegetable oil in the pot, fry it on both sides of low heat until it is yellowed, and wait until it comes out of the pot with some sesame seeds, and it is done.
At this time, take out the steamed dough as well, use cornstarch as hand flour to prevent sticking, knead the dough into a dumpling skin while it is hot, and then wrap the strawberries in it.
After doing this, Zhao Yunling saw that only half of the time had passed.
Start preparing the last dessert, take out the red beans that have just been soaked in water, put them in the pot, add water and cook for about half an hour until cooked, then pour all the cornstarch, coconut milk, fresh milk, and fresh milk into the pot, and cook slowly over low heat, stirring from time to time while cooking to avoid clumps, until it is thick and solid.
Then add the pre-cooked red beans, stir well, pour into a bowl, let cool and cut into small pieces on a plate.
Because the last dessert takes a long time, when she is ready, the time is just over.
Over there, Lin Zhaoquan asked if it was done, and Lin Zhaoquan made braised pork, kung pao chicken and Japanese tofu.
Although these dishes are very common, the more home-cooked they are, the more difficult they are to cook.
After tasting it for the five people, the five people first felt that each had its own merits, and then after studying it, it was decided that Zhao Yunling would do better.
"You won." Lin Zhao was willing to gamble and lose: "I will go to your shop to help as a cook." ”
"No, it's just a competition, let's learn from each other." Zhao Yunling refused.
Then Lin Zhaoquan insisted, no matter what Zhao Yunling said, he didn't agree, and finally Zhao Yunling had no choice but to agree to him to help him.
When he returned home, Zhao Yunling told Rong Yan about the daytime and discussed opening a restaurant.
"If you buy a shop, it's two blocks away from the dim sum shop, and there's one next to the antique shop, I saw it last time, and I think it's good, you can go and see it tomorrow," Rong Yan proposed.
Zhao Yunling agreed, and then took Rong Huan the next day.
"Madame, please."
When he arrived at the place, Zhao Yunling fell in love with this shop at a glance, and bought it without much hesitation.
