Chapter 138: Tempting the Taisun

The meat is marinating, and the melon seeds are boiling. Chen Xiao began to knead the dough.

Little Twist's dough doesn't need to be fermented, but in order to be crispy, she puts some baking soda, adds a few eggs, a little sesame oil, a little salt, and a little sugar, kneads it into a smooth dough, and lets the dough wake up.

Next, she washed the wooden table and prepared it to be used as a cutting board, only to realize that there was no rolling pin in the kitchen.

The cook and mother-in-law were called away by Su Xiaowan after packing up their things, she disdained to learn Chen Xiao's cooking skills, and she didn't want to leave anyone to help her, so Chen Xiao was the only one in the kitchen at this time.

Where can I find a rolling pin?

Chen Xiao called the post guard and asked him to go to the kitchen of the compound to see if there was a rolling pin. After a while, the postman came back and said no.

It's weird, the kitchen in the small courtyard is usually not used, but this time the grandson came, so he started cooking. It makes sense that there is no rolling pin here, but there are usually guests living in the compound, and they have to cook every day, so there is no rolling pin?

But think about it, South Vietnamese people don't like to eat pasta, and they don't know how to make pasta, and it seems possible that the people who come to stay at the official post are basically South Vietnamese people, and the kitchen doesn't make pasta.

There was a rolling pin in Chen Xiao's space, but just now she asked the post guard to look for it, saying no, and now she suddenly conjured a rolling pin, wouldn't it be strange?

After thinking about it, Chen Xiao went to Luo Qing and asked him to go out and help her find a rolling pin.

Luo Qing has been in Xiling for more than ten years, and he has been in the Huotou Army, and he is very familiar with rolling pins.

"What are you going to do with the rolling pin?" Luo Qing asked.

There are many types of rolling pins, one-handed canes, two-handed canes, mallets, etc., depending on what you are going to do and how big of dough you are rolling.

"It's about that long." Chen Xiao compared it with his hand, which was about forty or fifty centimeters long in a normal home.

"Understood. You help me guard my grandson, and I'll be back soon."

Luo Qing said to his grandson and rushed out.

In fact, Taisun doesn't have to guard him for anything, just chat with him to kill boredom.

The melon seeds in the kitchen had been boiled and were soaking, Chen Xiao didn't have to guard the stove, so he went to the grandson's room to take a look.

"I've seen Your Highness." Chen Xiao saluted.

"No need to be polite." Taisun reclined on the bed: "Luo Qing said you want to roll the pin, what are you doing?"

"I'm going to fry the twist flowers. After the dough was kneaded, I realized that there was no rolling pin." Chen Xiao smiled ashamedly. She is almost the same as Fang Yuxian grinding pea flour.

"Twist?"

"A pasta pastry, fried in sesame oil. After it is ready, it can be stored for many days, and when you are hungry or hungry, you can eat whenever you want."

"Oh, that's good, give me a taste when you're done?" The grandson has a snack at any time in the prince's mansion, and here he is hungry and has nothing to eat in the morning.

Chen Xiao smiled: "I just heard that His Highness woke up hungry in the morning, so I thought of fried twist flowers."

"I have a heart." Taisun stared at Chen Xiao's face and felt that her smile was particularly bright, like a blooming lotus flower, pure and white, soft and pleasant.

"By the way, does Your Highness like to eat sweet or salty?"

"Can twist be made sweet or salty?"

"Yes, the sweet ones are made into brown sugar twists, and the salty ones are made into pepper and salt twists."

"I like sweet dim sum, but I can also make a little salty and I will taste it." A few days ago, Taisun was seriously injured and had no appetite, but in the past two days, he has begun to have an appetite.

Not only did he begin to have an appetite, but he also began to have thoughts about women. Although the current physical condition does not allow it, it does not prevent you from having ideas. Of course, he knew that the Chen family was Fang Yu's wife, and he would not think anything wrong about her, but the other woman clearly wanted to give it to him.

Chen Xiao chatted with her grandson, telling her that she was making spiced melon seeds and pork jerky, which made her grandson greedy.

"Fang Yu has gone to grind pea flour. With pea flour, not only can you fry crispy, but you can also make pea jelly."

Chen Xiao began to talk about pea jelly again, talking about chili oil, which is indispensable in jelly, and then talking about planting chili peppers.

Taisun said, "I'll try you to make a pea jelly later, and if it's delicious, I'll find it for you."

Peppers are grown in state capitals." He was referring to the order that the people of the whole state should grow chili peppers.

Chen Xiaoxi smiled: "Your Highness, let me tell you, chili peppers are really a good thing! Whether fresh or dried, there are hundreds of ways to make it! From now on, the diet of the people will change! From now on, I will live a life of eating and drinking spicy food."

Taisun smiled. Eat fragrant and spicy, "eat fragrant" means to eat meat, and "drink spicy" refers to drink alcohol. Chan: This is a paraphrase.

The two chatted happily, and Luo Qing came back.

Chen Xiao got the rolling pin and prepared to roll the dough.

Taisun said, "Can you move here and do it?" I want to see how you do it." He was bored and wanted to find something interesting.

Chen Xiao thought about it. She can understand Taisun's boredom, since he wants to see it, then do it for him.

She brought tables, dough, and even stoves, oil pots, clay pots, and so on.

She takes the awakened dough to the cutting board and kneads it, uses a rolling pin to roll the dough into a rectangular pie shape, then cuts the dough into long strips, and kneades the long strips into thin and long strips.

She pressed the two ends of the slender strips on the board, rubbed her hands in different directions, and lifted them together, and the strips automatically twisted together. Then put it back on the board and rub it a few times, pick it up and close it again, and a small hemp peanut billet is ready.

Taisun saw that she was very skillful, and praised: "Xiling people do have a set of pasta dishes."

Chen Xiao smiled and said, "Your Highness forgot that we are running a snack restaurant! We make pasta every day. I have three South Vietnamese guys in my shop, and they are also very good at making noodles."

Luo Qing watched her do a few on the side, roughly understood how to rub it, and said, "I'll help you."

Chen Xiao said, "No, you are responsible for frying."

She told Luo Qing to fry slowly over low heat. So one person was responsible for making twist flowers, and one person was responsible for frying twist flowers, and soon there was a smell of oil smoke in Taisun's room.

The first batch of twist flowers came out of the pot, and the grandson wanted to taste it, Chen Xiao said that he would wait until it cooled a little bit, and it was crispy when it was cold, but now it is hot but not crispy.

Finally, the first twist flower was cooled, and the grandson couldn't wait to taste it, it was fragrant and crispy, and it was very delicious.

"Didn't you say there are sweet and salty ones? Why did I eat this, but it was sweet and salty when I didn't eat it." Taisun felt that this twist flower had a salty taste and seemed to be a little sweet, but neither taste was obvious.

Chen Xiao said: "That's fried and then processed. The sweet ones are covered with sugar juice, and the salty ones are sprinkled with salt and pepper."

"Oh." Taisun chewed on the twist flower, thinking that this snack was really good. In the future, there will always be something in the house, and there will be something to eat whenever you are hungry.

Speaking of being hungry, he felt that Miss Su was not a wife after all, and she was not very good at serving people. Looking at the Chen family, it can be imagined that she must have served Fang Yu very well in normal times.

As soon as he thought of Fang Yu, Fang Yu appeared at the door with a pocket.

Seeing that Chen Xiao was actually frying twist flowers next to his grandson's bed, Fang Yu helped his forehead.
