Su Qingluan first looked at the clear soup after sweeping it twice, turned down the heat, and let the soup base be in a slightly boiling state, but not too much, and turned around and began to process the tofu.

She cut off a piece of tender tofu and trimmed the shape: Well, it is moderately soft and hard, and it can be made into chrysanthemum Wensi tofu.

After passing his hand in the clear water, Su Qingluan held the piece of tofu in his hand, put it on the board, and began to cut it gently and quickly.

Different from the previous Wensi tofu that was simply shredded, Chrysanthemum Wensi tofu requires that the tofu cannot be completely cut off while the knife work is delicate, otherwise the tofu shreds will float out and cannot form a complete chrysanthemum, so it is necessary to master the depth of the knife work more proficiently.

When Su Qingluan first started cutting tofu, the people in the stove room were still busy, and as she cut it one after another, the originally lively stove room gradually quieted down, and everyone looked at Su Qingluan in amazement, as if they had been cast a fixing spell.

This "chrysanthemum" was cut down, although the chrysanthemum was only the size of a tea cup, but it had to be cut with thousands of knives, and after she cut it, she felt that her wrists were a little sore.

But it's not done yet, Su Qingluan went to the white porcelain cup prepared in advance, carefully transferred the tofu to it, and added the broth that had been simmering slowly, and in an instant, the tofu stretched out like a white flower, blooming in the bright and clear broth.

Suddenly, the two or three people near Su Qingluan involuntarily let out a soft exclamation, and then quickly covered their mouths, exchanged looks, and began to get busy again.

The white porcelain cup is steamed in water on top of another cage to remove the beany smell from the tofu and allow the umami of the broth to soak into the tofu.

Su Qingluan chose two more green leafy vegetables, first took out some broth and blanched them, and then quickly cooled them to allow the green leafy vegetables to absorb the sweetness of the soup, and to ensure that they were cut off and removed from the bitter taste. Overcooling will prevent the leafy greens from turning yellow during the blanching process.

When everything was ready to stop, when Su Qingluan estimated that the tofu had been steamed, she carefully took out the white porcelain cup, carefully poured out the broth inside, and scooped a new spoonful of broth again, so that the flowers could stretch again, and then placed the green leafy vegetables that had just been blanched on the side of the flowers, and used a wolfberry boiled in the broth to decorate the center of the flowers.

Cover the white porcelain cup with a lid, carefully scrub the water stains on the outside with a rag, and put it on the tray that was placed aside before, Su Qingluan turned to look at his four attendants: "I've done this dish, when will we serve it?" ”

One of the maids ran out in small steps, but after a while, she brought the old woman who had led her way before, only to see that she instructed the little maid to take a pair of dishes and chopsticks, uncover the lid of the white porcelain cup, and see the chrysanthemum Wensi tofu inside, raised her eyebrows slightly, and seemed to be a little surprised.

But after all, this woman was serving the rich and noble, and she was not surprised, but only lightly dipped a little broth with a spoon and put it in her mouth, and immediately closed the lid of the white porcelain cup to prevent the temperature from escaping.

After a while, she nodded and said to Su Qingluan, "Please come with the old woman." ”

Su Qingluan was still wondering why the old woman wanted to taste it at first, and when she saw her, she didn't move her chopsticks anymore after touching it, and then she reacted - it turned out that the old woman was "trying", which is the so-called "testing poison".

Su Qingluan complained in his heart: I thought I could see the legendary "silver needle poison test", and sure enough, the "human flesh test poison" is the safest - although it is also the most cruel in a sense.

Thinking so, Su Qingluan followed the servant woman, all the way through the courtyard with flowers and willows, and came to a pavilion with gurgling water next to her.

Su Qingluan felt that she was sour: It's good to be rich! Not only can someone help with cleaning, but there is also a yard with a pavilion and running water!

Wait - she calmed herself down and didn't turn into lemon essence - this is Party A's father, respect...... At least be respectful until the money is in hand......

It was hot, and it was just after noon, and it was the hottest time of the day, Xie Zi'an sat crookedly by the railing in the gazebo, clamoring for chilled cherries to the butler.

Su Qingluan secretly rejoiced in her heart: It turns out that there are cherries in this era? Then she has a chance to take a closer look at where it is sold!

The old housekeeper over there did not agree to the little master's request: "Your stomach is a little weak, and you are sweating when you ride a horse, and at this time you will have abdominal pain again if you eat that cold one." ”

"I'm fine, I want to eat! The heat is dead! ”

"Don't say that word, it's unlucky," the old housekeeper frowned slightly because the little master was unobtrusive, and then Yu Guang saw Su Qingluan coming over with the servant woman, and hurriedly bowed down to Xie Zi'an and said, "Didn't you say that you want to see how that lady's craftsmanship is?" ”

Xie Zi'an turned his head before he saw Su Qingluan, and hurriedly beckoned her to come over, stretching his neck curiously: "What delicious did you make?" ”

Seeing Su Qingluan holding the white porcelain cup on the tray, Xie Zi'an pouted: "It won't be any bird's nest rock sugar pear, I don't want to eat that sweet and greasy thing." ”

Su Qingluan only shook his head, took the white porcelain cup off the tray, put it in front of Xie Zi'an, and handed over the chopsticks and spoons to put them on the small tableware shelf, and said in a calm tone: "The ingredients of this dish are ordinary, but you can also see that the little girl has a little effort, and she is ugly." ”

When Su Qingluan said this, Xie Zi'an raised two points of interest, opened the white porcelain cup and looked inside, and then was stunned: "This ...... What is it? ”

"Tofu."

"Tofu?!" Not to mention that Xie Zi'an was surprised, even the housekeeper on the side opened his eyes slightly and looked at Su Qingluan again. This time, there was a hint of admiration in the old butler's eyes.

Xie Zi'an used ivory chopsticks to flick the shredded tofu that stretched out in the broth, and praised: "I can actually cut the tofu into such a flower...... However, the tofu is not very tasty, it is very bland, even if the appearance is eye-catching, it is not delicious after all......"

Su Qingluan didn't say anything, only handed over the spoon: "Please Xie Xiaolangjun use the soup." ”

"Tsk...... This soup is so light and bottom-out, it is estimated that the taste is bland......" Xie Zi'an said, lazily took the spoon and scooped a tablespoon of the pale yellow clear soup-

"It's delicious! It's delicious! Xie Zi'an's lazy look disappeared, and a look of surprise immediately flashed on his face that had not yet faded the baby fat, "How did you cook this soup?" How come I've never had such a good soup? ”

As he spoke, Xie Zi'an picked up the white porcelain cup, picked up the spoon, and ate all the chrysanthemum Wensi tofu and the soup with the soup and ingredients "sigh and snor" in three times and five by two, and looked up at Su Qingluan: "Is there anything else?" ”
