Chapter 169: Tasting Food
Chapter 169: Tasting Food
Qin Lie's people came from the south again and brought over many fruits that were not common in the north. Xiaodong divided it into several portions, and when he kept enough at home, he gave it to his relatives to taste it, and the Empress Dowager Shengci also prepared one to send.
The next day, the sixth princess came, saying that she was thanking, but in fact, she thought the fruit was delicious, and came to eat and drink again.
"Where's your family?"
"Father took him out for a visit."
The sixth prince was surprised: "Uncle An Wang is really idle, so he can't wait to tease his grandson?" ”
As soon as she entered the house and sat down, someone replied that Grandma Shen was here.
"Huh? Is it the new daughter-in-law married by Shen Dacai's son? The sixth princess was quite curious: "I haven't seen her yet, please come in and take a look." ”
The sixth princess was also ...... to Shen Jing back then Well, it's been so long, and now they're all married. The sixth princess married and beautiful, and also hugged the big fat son, and the little thing back then should not be taken to heart.
As he spoke, Shen Jing's wife, Li, had already come in.
She was wearing a tender green dress, which made her look even more childish, but her attitude was down-to-earth and generous, and she greeted Xiaodong and said hello to the sixth princess.
The sixth princess was obviously very surprised, she didn't expect Shen Jing's wife to look like this - probably in her impression, Shen Jing's wife who was so chosen to marry should be a peerless beauty, or she must also be a talented woman with extraordinary vulgarity.
But now it looks like it can't be seen from the face, it's beautiful...... I can't see it either.
The sixth princess stared at the person and didn't speak, and Li stood with a slight smile, not uncomfortable at all.
"Sit down, have you eaten the lychee fruit you sent yesterday?"
"Eat, I just sent it yesterday, we don't recognize it, or the master came back, he said that the outer layer was peeled off, and the inner layer could not be eaten, and it had to be removed. He also said that it was better to use ice water to stir it, and sure enough, he had gained knowledge. Li asked the maid to present a basket: "I came to thank you today, it is not easy to transport such a rare thing thousands of miles away." Here are some peaches and plums brought from my hometown, as well as some home-pickled crispy vegetables and crispy eggplants, which I will also give you to try. ”
Xiao Dong picked up the small jar of crispy vegetables and looked at it, and asked with a smile: "Is it the famous Sun family dish?" ”
"Ah, yes. One of my aunts is the daughter of the Sun family, and she takes the maids around her to do a little bit by herself when she has free time. ”
The sixth princess asked, "What kind of famous restaurant is Sun Jiacai?" ”
Xiao Dong said: "I also heard my cousin say that I haven't eaten it yet." The Sun family is also a well-known family in Jinzhou, with generations of scholars, but there was once a heterogeneous talent who did not like to read and be an official, but only loved to cook, and he left a miscellaneous book, which recorded many dishes. Someone once ate at the Sun family's family banquet, and was shocked and never forgotten, so the reputation of the Sun family was spread. Let's try it at noon, and eat this elegant and wonderful Sun family dish. ”
The six princesses pondered, the left and right are just pickled vegetables, and can they still pickle flowers?
However, this new young grandmother of the Shen family brought Eli Lilly, not like she ate it for nothing.
Is...... I can't see what's so good about her.
Li asked Xiaodong: "I heard that the county lord will also cook vegetables and soup by himself when he is at home?" ”
"I don't know any famous dishes, I just make them casually, but fortunately, the people who eat the dishes are my own family, so I don't laugh at me."
Li smiled and said, "I can cook two dishes at home, why don't we cook them together at noon?" ”
Xiao Dong nodded: "That's good, I also learned the craft with my cousin." ”
The sixth princess saw that they were talking about each other, and said, "Then I will make one too." ”
Xiao Dong was surprised: "Sixth sister, will you too?" ”
She had never heard that the sixth princess was so virtuous and capable, she usually didn't hold a needle, nor did she move a pen, let alone cook.
"Don't underestimate people." The sixth princess raised her head: "When I come back, I will show my hand, and you will know." ”
Li Shi looked at the sixth princess carefully without a trace, lowered his head and drank tea.
At noon, the three masters went into the kitchen together, but the cook had nowhere to stand.
Xiaodong chose tofu to make white jade balls, Li wanted to make steamed fish, but he didn't say what the six princes were going to do.
The main dish of white jade balls is tofu, but this is a rich dish, the chicken and tofu are steamed together, and then simmered with ham and chicken soup. Lee's steamed fish is not simple, and the main thing is to take care of the heat.
When the dishes were served, Xiao Dong and Li saw that the sixth princess made a dish of cold melon shreds.
The sixth princess was triumphant: "Hurry up, try my craft first." ”
Ahem, what does this make Xiao Dong say?
The melon is washed by the chef, cut by the chef, and the sauce is also adjusted by the chef, and what the sixth princess has to do is just pour the sauce on the melon shreds, so a crisp cold salad of melon shreds becomes
The cook is very good at talking: "It's all the six princesses' instructions, the slaves and maids do some rough work, and the important thing is the princess's own hands." ”
That's a great thing to say.
Xiao Dong only found out today that the cook in his small kitchen can not only cook, but also be very good at talking.
This is not wrong, washing melons, cutting melons and mixing juice is considered rough work, and the sixth princess does the key step: pour the juice on the melon shreds. The key to this cold salad is in a mix word. Since it was mixed by the sixth princess herself...... Then this dish can also be regarded as her own hand-made.
Tsk, there are Crouching Tigers, Hidden Dragons in the small kitchen, so good at talking, it's a pity to be a chef.
Xiaodong tasted a chopstick, well, his own chef's knife skills have nothing to say, and the juice is also authentic.
The white jade balls made by Xiaodong look very elegant, the soup is clear, the tofu is white, the round and tender ones are served in the deep pot one by one, and the six princesses scooped one and tasted it, and they ate it in a hurry, and they were almost burned.
"Okay, this one is delicious." She didn't care about the heat, so she swallowed one and scooped another.
Li Shi was a little curious, and looked at her a little inquiringly, but this time her demeanor was clearly seen by Xiao Dong.
Lee's gaze ...... It's a little weird.
To say, coming to the capital from Jinzhou can be regarded as a countryman entering the city, and he will always be curious about people and things.
But her eyes and expression did not seem to be the kind of person who was curious and envious at first sight.
The inverse image is to dissect, to measure......
What did she estimate the six princesses to do?
Ah, did she hear about that back then?
The sixth princess wanted to design to marry Shen Jing, but the matter did not come to pass, but she was given a marriage to Luo Wei by the emperor - not too many people knew about this matter, although people outside had some speculations, no one dared to talk about it. Nonsense, who will talk about this, it's not that the old birthday star eats arsenic and thinks it will be long.
Could it be that where did Lee hear about this?
"Sister Xiaodong, you taste this fish."
Xiao Dong answered, took some fish meat and put it in his mouth, and said: "It's really fragrant, not fishy at all." ”
However, the main dishes on this table are the two Sun family dishes brought by the Li family. The cabbage is extremely crisp and tender, and the crispy eggplant is sweet but not greasy, but since Xiao Dong has something in his heart, he can't calm down and taste the food.
