And the milk fish fillet, the casserole deer tendon, and the green onion fried beef tenderloin, this is all from the imperial diet, the milk fish fillet is actually very simple, take a grass carp, and then the fish slices down, with ginger slices, cooking wine, salt, etc.

To steam the deer tendons in the casserole, you need to steam the deer tendons in the pot first, then cut the steamed deer tendons into thin strips, put them in the casserole, add ginger, green onions, and garlic cooking wine and simmer over slow heat.

After the simmered deer tendon is clamped out, then put in peanuts, start another casserole, pour in water, simmer until the soup is white, the deer tendon is soft and rotten, and then put a little salt to taste.

The green onion fried beef tenderloin is to choose the best beef tenderloin, first use vegetable oil, egg white, soy sauce, cooking wine, marinate the beef, marinate for a while, heat the oil, fry the beef in the pot until it turns white, and then put in the green onions, chili pepper together and stir-fry until cooked, add an appropriate amount of salt, you can.

Finally, make a cabbage roll, make a lotus roll, and a rock sugar bird's nest, and you're done.

When Hua Manxi was cooking, Li Xi's eyes didn't leave for more than half a minute, and she only felt that her every move, stir-frying, oiling, and serving the dishes were particularly pleasing to the eye, not to mention the dishes made, which were placed like flowers, which was breathtaking. Even the smell of oil smoke in the kitchen has a strong aroma, which is different from the past.

The dishes have gone to the front hall one after another, Lin Zhicheng is entertaining those clan elders and uncles, he has eaten what Hua Manxi cooks, a simple bowl of clear soup and white noodles, she can make a little bit of taste, and took the imperial kitchen golden knife, I think the cooking skills will not be very bad, but there is already a foreshadowing in my heart, and when the dishes come up, Lin Zhicheng is still amazed.

Ham and bamboo shoot soup is a famous dish in Kyoto, it is not unusual, but among those cold dishes, garlic and white meat have never been seen, not to mention hot dishes, not only the dishes are novel, but also the color and flavor are complete, even the shape of this plating, are fresh, delicate and elegant, people can't bear to put down chopsticks.

"Uncles of the clan, hurry up and eat, everyone has been busy for so long, I think I am hungry, this is a family banquet, don't be restrained." Lin Zhicheng ordered someone to come forward to serve soup to the uncles, and warmly entertained him.

Those clansmen's hometowns are not as prominent as the Weiguo Mansion, and they rely on the Weiguo Mansion on weekdays, but now they just help a little thing, and they can eat the dishes made by their daughters, and this daughter is still a golden knife kitchen, and they immediately feel honored and very useful.

A bowl of steaming, fragrant ham and fresh bamboo shoot soup was handed to him, and after a bite, it was indescribably salty, delicious, and mellow.

"I've eaten this ham and bamboo shoot soup for decades, and I never knew that it could make such a taste." One of them tasted only one bite of the soup and exclaimed.

"Don't say it's you, it's my old man, I'm seventy years old this year, and I've never drunk such a fragrant ham soup, you see this ham, it's already simmered soft, this smoked ham, it's the most difficult to cook, my teeth are not good, if you want to make this soup on weekdays, the sons and daughters-in-law at home are prepared early, stewed for three or five hours, I don't know how much water is added to it, even the stove is hot, not as soft as this ham. How long has the big girl been in the world, and she has cooked a table of dishes so quickly, and this ham is so soft and smooth that it melts in your mouth, which is really amazing. The patriarch touched his white beard and praised it.

"Patriarch, then you have to try this, this pigeon egg, delicious and fragrant, it also melts in the mouth, and it is delicious."

"And this deer tendon, this deer tendon is the most chewy on weekdays, this big girl is stewed soft, delicious and tender, these dishes seem to be specially arranged for us old men, it is really heartfelt." Another uncle chimed in.

"Yes, yes, it's the beef that can't be chewed on weekdays, it's also smooth, tender, and refreshing, but you can swallow it after two chews, and this field of chicken is not stuck, it's really a dish specially made for our group of old men."

Lin Zhicheng heard that those uncles and uncles all praised Hua Manxi's superb cooking skills without exception, and his heart was as careful as hair, and he turned his head and complimented him again: "Grandpa Guo, you big girl doesn't seem to be born in the countryside at all, with the imperial kitchen golden knife, you can often appear in front of the master in the palace in the future, with the cooking skills and mind of the eldest girl, the creation can be great." ”

"Yes, Grandpa Guo is really a blessing, the first two girls in front of him have set up the family affairs of the Zhenguo Mansion, and now the eldest girl is like this, even if she is sent to the heavenly family, it may not be impossible——"

Everyone, you and I complimented me one by one, Lin Zhicheng was very useful, and ordered someone to take a good lotus white altar and drink a few cups with the elders and children of the clan.

A meal is naturally enjoyed by the guests and hosts, and the people at the table have round stomachs and are very satisfied.

"Someone, go and call the eldest girl to come up, my lord wants to reward her!" Lin Zhicheng saw that the patriarch attached great importance to Hua Manxi, and was very happy, although the patriarch's family was not particularly noble, but he was a highly respected person in the clan, and he still had the heart to wait for the patriarch to take over this errand after a hundred years, so he decided to appreciate Hua Manxi again.

Hua Manxi soon followed the subordinates over, her posture was still down-to-earth and generous, and she saluted everyone: "Manxi has seen uncles and fathers. ”

"Good, good." Lin Zhicheng was even more overjoyed when he saw her courtesy, and he actually had some regret at the moment, if he hadn't agreed to Mrs. to let her go to the family business, with her appearance and cooking skills, she might not be able to earn a future in the heavenly family, and at that time, it would be the Weiguo Mansion, and she might be able to get her light.

"Today's table of dishes you have done very well, your uncles are very satisfied, thank you for your hard work, whatever reward you want, you can ask, my father will definitely satisfy you." Lin Zhicheng promised.

Hua Manxi raised his head at this time, and did not open his mouth to ask for a reward, but said in a loud voice: "Father is serious, since I recognize my ancestors and return to my ancestors, I am a member of the Lin family, and cooking a meal is just a matter of effort, how can I still ask for a reward?" What's more, the second sister has already reminded me, saying that the Guogong Mansion is my home, one is prosperous, and the other is lost, no matter what you do, you must think about the reputation of the Guogong Mansion. ”

"Your second sister is right." Lin Zhicheng mentioned Lin Fengxuan, and there was a little more love in his eyes, although he is kind and pleasant to Hua Manxi now, it is just because Hua Manxi has satisfied his vanity, if you really want to say love, the person he loves the most is naturally Lin Fengxuan, who has been raised by his side since childhood.

"I also think that the second sister is reasonable, knowledgeable and polite, treats people kindly, and has the demeanor of everyone's ladies, and Manxi is ashamed of herself." Hua Manxi smiled slightly and continued.

"She was raised in Beijing since she was a child, and the rules are naturally a little stronger than yours, but your cooking skills are very good, which is also incomparable to her, you don't have to be arrogant." Lin Zhicheng reassured.

"I will learn some rules from the second sister, but I heard people say that the second sister is ten fingers that do not touch the spring water, but not to mention the housewife of the family in Kyoto today, she is the mother of the palace, and she also knows one or two specialty dishes. If the second sister is married, it is still like this, isn't it laughed at? Anyway, I'm also a golden knife chef, and my sister doesn't even distinguish between salt and sugar? Hua Manxi changed the previous smoothness, and he beat up, but he disliked Lin Fengxuan.

"Well, that's right, I'll ask her mother to urge her to learn some cooking." Lin Zhicheng's face was a little unbearable, and he said perfunctorily.

However, Hua Manxi hit the snake with the stick, and said: "To learn cooking, you must first learn chores, just cooking today, I can't support people, so I rewarded them with some silver to let them go to tea, and now there is no kitchen now, it is better to let the second sister help me clean up these dishes and chopsticks." It not only shows the filial piety of the second sister, but also exercises her, killing two birds with one stone. ”

Let Lin Fengxuan clean up the dishes and chopsticks? It's-

A look of embarrassment flashed on Lin Zhicheng's face, and he was about to speak, but he didn't want to spend Manxi but preemptively said, "How about it?" Father? Could it be that I can go to the kitchen for the old uncles of the clan myself, but the second sister refuses to even clean up the dishes and chopsticks? Or does the father feel sorry for the second sister, or can't he call the second sister to borrow? ”

Her words seem innocent, but in fact, she is heart-wrenching, whether she feels sorry for Lin Fengxuan or can't call Lin Fengxuan, it will be a joke when it is passed out.

The eldest girl is cooking, what about the second girl washing the dishes and chopsticks? His heart can't be too biased! Besides, those old uncles are still watching here!

Lin Zhicheng categorically couldn't lose his face, and immediately said, "What are you talking about?" Come on, ask the second girl to come up and clean up the dishes and chopsticks, if there is anything you don't understand, ask the eldest girl for advice. ”

Lin Fengxuan's arrogant personality asked her to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, just think about it, you know how violent she will be, but in front of so many people, whether she refuses to make a fuss, or obediently cleans up the dishes and chopsticks, she can't please her.

This is called treating others as they would have done their own thing. Hua Manxi never holds grudges, and if there is anything unpleasant, she will take revenge immediately.

Sure enough, as soon as Lin Fengxuan heard Lin Zhicheng tell him to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and asked Hua Manxi for advice, she immediately became angry and came here angrily.

She was about to make a fuss, but she didn't want those uncles and clan elders to be there, they all looked at her expectantly, her face stiffened, the anger in her heart was suddenly suppressed, she squeezed out an ugly smile, secretly gritted her teeth, and said to Lin Zhicheng: "Dad, I heard that you asked me to clean up the dishes and chopsticks?" ”

Lin Zhicheng nodded and said, "Yes, your sister has worked hard to make a table of dishes, and you should help clean it up." ”
