Chapter 324: Cold Houttuynia Cordata
Bai Qianmo shook her head: "Grandfather Huang, I won't eat it today, otherwise I won't be able to eat barbecue for a while." ”
"Alright! Bake potatoes again tomorrow. ”
After tasting it, the emperor also praised it: "This baked potato is really good, it looks inconspicuous, and it tastes quite fragrant." ”
Bai Qianmo smiled slightly, in modern Spring City, baked potatoes are one of the snacks that can be seen everywhere, and those dozen kinds of dipping sauces make people unable to stop eating more and more.
Especially the cold houttuynia cordata, which is her favorite.
It's been a long time since I've eaten cold houttuynia cordata, so I miss that taste!
Unfortunately, now, the wild Houttuynia cordata has withered, and there is no way to find it, so I can only wait for it to germinate.
Houttuynia cordata is not only a Chinese herbal medicine, but also a rare delicacy on the table.
It's just that people who are not used to eating will find it difficult to eat.
Seeing Bai Qianmo's pensive face, Ye Chufeng asked, "Mo'er, what are you thinking?" ”
Bai Qianmo replied: "Father, my daughter is thinking of a delicacy, and when spring begins, my daughter has to find that thing." ”
"What kind of food?"
"Cold salad Houttuynia cordata, also known as folded ear root, I wonder if there is such a thing on the outskirts of the capital?"
Wu Xiaolei, who was standing behind Ye Muchen, spoke: "Miss Eight, is the Houttuynia cordata you said the kind that can be used in medicine, the leaves are a little red, and the roots are white and cut off one by one?" ”
Bai Qianmo smiled and nodded: "Yes, that's it." ”
Wu Xiaolei smiled and said, "Where do your subordinates know?" Although the leaves are wilted, the roots should be able to dig up. ”
Bai Qianmo's eyes lit up: "Where is it?" ”
"There are a lot of them near the ditch on the edge of the rice field that we tried to plant."
"Let's go, go dig now, and see if you can dig some."
"Then go down and get a hoe and a basket."
After Wu Xiaolei finished speaking, he turned around and ran to the utility room.
Ye Mulin said: "Eighth sister, eldest brother will accompany you." ”
"Okay, brothers, let's go together!"
Ye Chufeng looked helpless: "Butler, prepare horses for the princes." ”
Bai Qianmo stopped: "Father, you don't need to prepare a horse, we can run and exercise." ”
"Alright! Stay safe on the road. ”
Luo Jiuying spoke: "It's better for the old man to go with them!" ”
Ye Chufeng nodded: "It's okay, so as not to cause them any danger." ”
Waiting for Wu Xiaolei to bring the hoe and back basket, the eight brothers and sisters set off with Bai Qianxue, Bai Qianling, Su Wanqing, and the Ninth Princess.
Out of the gate of the palace, Bai Qianmo shouted: "Brothers and sisters, run!" ”
The group began to run wildly towards their destination.
A quarter of an hour later, everyone was drenched in sweat, but they didn't slow down.
Under the leadership of Wu Xiaolei, he soon came to the ditch.
In the withered grass, Bai Qianmo really saw the withered Houttuynia cordata leaves.
Wu Xiaolei picked up a hoe and began to dig Houttuynia cordata.
After a few hoes, the fat, white roots of Houttuynia cordata were revealed.
"Wow! The houttuynia in this place is really fat, and I want to eat it when I look at it. ”
Ye Mulin asked uncertainly: "Eighth sister, are you sure that this Houttuynia cordata can be eaten cold?" ”
"Of course it's certain, and Houttuynia cordata is also a good medicine for reducing inflammation and sterilization, clearing heat and removing fire."
"Okay, let's dig together, and you little girls will be responsible for picking up Houttuynia cordata."
Ye Mulin and the brothers picked up hoes and excavated, and Bai Qianmo and the girls squatted on the ground to clean up the Houttuynia cordata.
A large piece of Houttuynia cordata was dug up by Wu Xiaolei and the others, cleaned up and loaded with nearly a basket.
Bai Qianmo said excitedly: "Enough is enough, leave some seeds, and after germination, you can come and pick Houttuynia cordata sprouts and go back to eat." ”
Ye Mulin said: "Then go back!" Carry it to me, and you will run back. ”
Wu Xiaolei snatched the back basket and put it on his back: "It's okay for subordinates to carry it, this thing is not heavy." ”
Bai Qianmo smiled and said, "Big brother, let Brother Xiaolei carry it!" He needs to train harder, otherwise he won't even be able to protect himself in the future. ”
Ye Mulin smiled and nodded: "Okay, then go back and run!" ”
"Woo Woo ......"
One by one, the children rushed out in an instant like arrows from the string, and ran towards the capital at the fastest speed.
When he returned to the palace, he called the flower pig almost roasted.
Bai Qianmo took Xiang'er and a few of their girls, and with the help of their subordinates, they cleaned up part of Houttuynia cordata and cleaned it to prepare it for cold dressing.
Some coriander was planted in the back garden of the palace, and Bai Qianmo asked Xiang'er to pluck some and clean them and chop them.
Take out soy sauce, vinegar, chili pepper and other seasonings from the space, cut some garlic paste, add soy sauce, vinegar, salt, oil consumption and other seasonings and add coriander, stir well.
I picked up one with chopsticks and put it in my mouth, squinting my eyes and chewing it.
"Well, that's the taste, it's the most classic with baked potatoes or grilled meat."
Xiao Jiu's eyes lit up: "Is it really so delicious?" Little Eighth Sister, give me a taste. ”
Bai Qianmo took one and stuffed it into Xiao Jiu's mouth.
Xiao Jiu chewed contentedly, and after chewing a few times, her little brows furrowed, and then she spit out the houttuynia in her mouth.
"Wow! It's so unpalatable, it tastes weird, I can't eat it. ”
Bai Qianmo smiled: "It's good to eat a few more times to get used to it, and if you get used to it, you will feel very delicious, and I couldn't stand this taste when I first started eating." ”
Xiao Jiu's face was puzzled: "Little Eighth Sister, when have you ever eaten?" ”
"Eh~, it's been a long time, I haven't come to the palace when I ate Houttuynia cordata, so you don't know."
"I see, little eighth sister, before you came to the palace, you must have had a bad time and suffered a lot."
Bai Qianmo smiled casually: "No, I used to be okay." ”
Of course, she is not talking about life in the General's Mansion, but about life with her godmother in modern times.
Xiao Jiu pursed his lips and said secretly in his heart: I got such an unpalatable thing to eat, and I didn't admit that I was not doing well.
Following the old lady Bai, the old witch, it's no wonder that it can be better.
Bai Qianmo smiled and said, "Okay, let the past pass, let's go eat roast pig." ”
Su Wanqing served the cold salad houttuynia and followed behind Bai Qianmo.
When they came to the main hall, Luo Jiuying and Cheng Yunhai had already knocked open the mud on the roast pig, tore off the rice paper, and put the roast pig on the table whole.
At this time, Bai Junhong and Nie Wenjing had also come to the palace, and they were looking at Bai Qianmo with a smile.
Bai Junhong knows very well that if his youngest daughter hadn't rescued his wife today, where would he have the opportunity to taste the flower pig?
Cheng Yunhai licked his lips and said with a greedy expression: "The emperor, the emperor, this roast pig is the most fragrant when it is cut and eaten, how about we each take a dagger and eat it while cutting?" ”
The emperor nodded happily: "No problem, I have no opinion, how delicious it is."
Fourth brother, get me a dagger. ”
Bai Qianmo smiled and said: "Uncle Huang, the niece of the dagger is there, and the niece will bring it to you." ”
