Chapter 242: Pineapple Fried Rice
Shen Shuang gave the curious baby Jiang Zitong a rough explanation of the tropical sub. What does tropical and temperate mean, and he didn't notice the confused expression of Jiang Zipei's brother on the side.
Jiang Ziyan has always thought that he is well-informed, but he didn't expect that one day he would let a girl compare.
It's not that he looks down on the girl's family, but because he is well-informed, he thinks that women and men should have the same status, but this is also the deep thought in his heart, and he is not good at saying it, for fear that others will think that his thoughts are too shocking, or that no one will be able to understand him, it is better to hide it himself, and avoid causing any criticism or causing a lot of trouble, he is most afraid of trouble.
But Jiang Ziyan felt at this moment that maybe Shen Shuang could understand his opinion, he frowned, and thought about it, thinking that he might find time to talk to her.
Shen Shuang didn't know that she was being targeted by Jiang Ziyan and became the object of his earnest conversation, after she explained to Jiang Zitong the climate in which pineapples grow, she asked Brother Xiao Li to take a knife for cutting fruits and bring a basin of salt water over, and cut a pineapple neatly.
Jiang Ziyan on the side looked at her neat appearance and wondered, "Miss Shen has eaten this pineapple before?" I looked at Miss Shen, you seem to be very skilled. ”
Shen Shuang was picking pineapples, and his heart was even more chuckled, realizing that he was a little carried away when he saw the familiar fruit, but he forgot that he was in ancient times.
If others knew that she was from the future, they would definitely have to catch her and tie her up, and put her on a high pillar like on TV and burn her, but she has acted in such a scene, and she is also called a witch.
Shen Shuang shuddered violently, realizing that his heart should not be so big.
Jiang Zipei and Jiang Zitong will not doubt her, but the well-informed Jiang Ziyan is different.
Shen Shuang's thoughts flashed through him in just a few seconds, and when he looked up again, he squeezed out a smirk, "I've eaten it, I've eaten it in the capital before, and I'll still use it to cook." ”
Jiang Ziyan's eyes lit up, and he was relieved, you must know that the capital of their Liang is all merchants from the south to the north, and it is not strange to have this pineapple, and he does not often stay in the capital, so he did not have any suspicions, but asked with some curiosity, "It turns out that Miss Shen has been to the capital?" ”
Shen Shuang had never told Jiang Zitong's brothers and sisters about being replaced by the daughter of the official family, but now, there was no one else in the room, just the three brothers and sisters, Shen Shuang lowered his head and spoke lightly while continuing to pick pineapples.
"Oh, I've been, I grew up in the capital since I was a child, and I only returned to Xishan Village this year."
Jiang Zitong really didn't know Shen Shuang's life experience, and when he heard this, he asked curiously, "Sister Shen, didn't you grow up with your father?" Your family has relatives in the capital, if only I had known you. ”
You look at me and I look at you on the hills and rocks on the side, but I don't speak.
Xiaoshan remembered that his former sister was missing, and that his new sister, who had been kind to him, suddenly came to the house.
And Shi remembered that when his little sister Shuang first came to the house, he still thought that he could take silver from her to buy delicious food and become fat, and he blushed a little when he thought of this.
Shen Shuang didn't shy away from it, if a clear explanation could dispel others' doubts about her 'good cooking skills and literary talents', she felt very good.
Shen Shuang was suddenly a little glad that she was not wearing it on someone else, otherwise she wouldn't be able to tell if she had a mouth at that time.
"No, my family has no relatives in the capital, that is, my grandmother quietly replaced me and an official lady when I was just born, until this year, the official lady returned to her hometown to visit relatives and saw her daughter, and then realized that I was an impostor, so she replaced me."
Jiang Zipei: "......" He sighed in his heart, what happened, Miss Shen's life experience was so bumpy.
Jiang Ziyan: "......" He sighed in his heart, I see, no wonder this Shen girl is well-informed, it turns out to be an official lady.
Jiang Zitong didn't have so much mental activity, his eyes were a little red, he looked at Shen Shuang with sympathy, and pouted and spoke.
"Sister Shen, it turns out that your life experience is so bumpy, why is your grandmother so excessive? I'm going to swap you in, and I've never heard you mention it before. ”
Shen Shuang smiled, "What's there to say about this?" It's not a big deal, though. ”
Jiang Zitong said again, "Sister Shen, you must have worked a lot of effort to adapt to life here, right?" ”
This is true, she has done a lot of physical and psychological construction, so she reluctantly persuaded herself to live well, "Fortunately, I'm not all fine now, I'm much thinner than before." ”
Seeing that Jiang Zitong was still going to speak, Jiang Zipei and Jiang Ziyan hurriedly grabbed her and asked her not to talk nonsense, "Okay, don't ask too much about Miss Shen's private affairs, and don't hinder her from showing her skills." Miss Shen, you continue, let's just watch. ”
Shen Shuang nodded, and then continued to pick pineapples, feeling a little happy in her heart, as long as she didn't doubt her.
Shen Shuang quickly peeled the pineapple, removed the dots on the pineapple, and then cut it into pieces and put it in the salt water and then fished it out for everyone to eat together.
There are also two children here, so naturally the children are the priority.
Neither Shi nor Xiaoshan had ever eaten this pineapple, and as soon as they entered their mouths, they looked at each other in unison, and they both saw their love for this pineapple in each other's eyes.
It didn't take long for a pineapple to be divided among several people.
Jiang Ziyan opened the fan with a snap, and said like a merry boy, "My merchant friend said that this pineapple is very delicious, and it may have a sour feeling, but I think it is very delicious, but I don't know why I want to soak it in salt water?" Is it for the sake of better taste? ”
Shen Shuang didn't want to explain more, lest she have to explain more, "I don't know, just watch others eat like this, and I do the same." ”
Jiang Zitong didn't bother with what she had just heard, but pulled Shen Shuang to let her take the pineapple to cook and eat, and hoped that she would quickly forget what she had just done, although she seemed to be quite light-hearted, but Jiang Zitong felt that her sister Shen was forcing a smile, and she had to find something for her to do in order to divert her attention.
"Sister Shen, what can this pineapple do? Can you go to the kitchen and do it? ”
"You see there are two big baskets of pineapples here, my brother's friend is still in the mountain town, if it is really delicious, then we will buy all the glass of his caravan in Yunlailou, and also make a special pineapple dish, and keep it so that the Manfulou opposite is half angry."
Shen Shuang nodded and looked at Jiang Ziyan, "Jiang Gongzi, this pineapple is a fruit from the south, and it is relatively rare here outside, whether it is to make dishes or simply eat it as a fruit, it is very good, maybe you can consider buying those pineapples." ”
Jiang Ziyan didn't have a good impression of this pineapple at first, and thought it was very unpalatable when it looked like it, but I just tasted it and knew that it was still very good, and the appearance of this flesh was okay, and the taste was no worse than peaches and apricots, so he and Jiang Zipei glanced at each other, Jiang Zipei immediately went to call the shopkeeper to come in, and went to the Hongyun Inn to find Jiang Ziyan's merchant friends.
At the same time, several people also moved to the kitchen.
At this hour, the morning market is not as busy as just now, and the chef in the kitchen can also take a breath, only some apprentices are busy, Chef Song and Chef Tang are talking, and the two of them have to rest for a while, and then they have to start preparing the materials for the lunch market.
Although they were very busy and tired, the two cooks were very happy, and they were even happier to see Shen Shuang come in at this moment, as if they had seen their master.
Chef Song was a little excited, "Miss Shen, you can be counted, we have recently developed a lot of new dishes, but we are still waiting for you to comment, by the way, the dishes you taught us to make before, the guests liked them very much." ”
Chef Tang also spoke, "Miss Shen, you might as well sit for a while, let's make two dishes for you to taste, and you can also give some suggestions." ”
Although Jiang Zipei is the owner, there is only Shen Shuang in the eyes of the two cooks, and seeing them so enthusiastic, Shen Shuang almost couldn't resist it, and nodded again and again.
"Naturally, you can, but I'll try it later."
Jiang Zipei also opened his mouth to stop the two masters who were now extremely enthusiastic about cooking, "Two masters, now Miss Shen plans to use these pineapples to make two dishes, if they are done well, this time can become one of the signature dishes of our Yunlai Building, you put aside the things at hand, and there are fewer guests in front, you also rest for a while and follow Miss Shen to learn." ”
When Chef Song and Chef Tang heard that they could learn something, their eyes suddenly lit up, and they hurriedly let the apprentices who were okay go out.
Shen Shuang had already been promised before she came in, if it sold well, Jiang Zipei would give her a dish of one hundred taels of silver this time, but in fact, for the current Yunlailou, one hundred taels of silver for a dish is not much.
Of course, Shen Shuang would not refuse to make money, and accidentally earned a few hundred taels of silver, and his mood was much better.
Just do it, Shen Shuang first chose a piece of fat and thin meat in the place where the meat was placed, and Chef Song cut it into small cubes according to Shen Shuang's requirements, and put it in a big bowl.
Shen Shuang walked to the place where the spices were placed, and found that the seasonings in this kitchen were also readily available, she picked up a small spoon and added salt to the pork, as well as a little bit of wine specially used for cooking, two egg yolks, and then used chopsticks to stir it evenly and put it aside to marinate.
No one said anything about this process, and Chef Song and Chef Tang both memorized the recipe and the steps of adding seasonings in their minds.
"This meat needs to be marinated for fifteen minutes, now prepare the ingredients, Master Song, you help cut this bell pepper into small pieces for later use, Master Tang please cut the pineapple into small pieces, cut it and soak it in lightly salted water, and I will deal with it later."
Master Tang and Master Song did it without saying a word, Master Tang saw this so-called pineapple for the first time, and he didn't know how to do it at first, Jiang Zitong had just seen Shen Shuang cut pineapple, so he pointed him out on the side.
With Chef Song and Chef Tang helping her, Shen Shuang saved a lot of effort and went to make another dish: pineapple fried rice.
