Crossing the wasteland: Farming and peasant girls can't be provoked

Chapter 76
Jing Yi lowered her head and tidied up the medicine box, so as to calm down her fast heartbeat and hot cheeks.

After tidying up the medicine box, Jing Yi said, "Brother Xiao, take a rest, I'll go to the big kitchen and teach the cooks how to cook."

Xiao Yilin said while wearing his belt, "Go, don't be too tired, some work doesn't have to be done by yourself, just leave it to others."

Jing Yi went directly to the big kitchen, and today she was going to teach the cooks how to make Dongpo elbow and sweet and sour pork.

Jing Yi thought that opening a restaurant would require a lot of soy sauce.The ones she makes at home don't last long.Although she made another batch of soy sauce before, it was not enough.

When eating with Xiao Yilin at noon, Jing Yi said: "Brother Xiao, this cooking is inseparable from soy sauce and other seasonings. If our restaurant needs a lot of soy sauce every day when it opens, I think we can open a soy sauce workshop to brew soy sauce. Not only can you use it yourself, but you can also sell it outside.

In the future, our restaurant can be opened into a chain store. As long as the food is delicious, we don't have to worry about no customers.But to open a soy sauce workshop, I can only provide recipes, and you are responsible for both the people and the venue. "

Of course Xiao Yilin knows the magical effect of soy sauce, as long as it is made, it will not worry about selling it, "You don't have to worry about this, I will send someone to do it. We will still share [-]-[-] of the profits of the soy sauce workshop."

Jing Yi waved her hand, "That's not okay, I'll just come up with a prescription, and you have to do everything else, brother Xiao, I just need three achievements, don't give in to me this time. I think the three achievements are already A lot."

Although the person in front of him was still dressed in men's clothing, Xiao Yilin already knew that this was a woman, so no matter how he looked at it, he didn't feel like a man anymore, just a little girl.

Seeing that the little girl insisted on insisting, Xiao Yilin didn't refuse, and said helplessly, "Okay, then do as you say."

Xiao Yilin asked Gu Yu and Feng Zhi to guide the craftsmen to build two bread kilns.It will be ready to use in a few days.

It's almost the New Year's Day, that is, the Spring Festival.Jingyi started to make some pastries.

Jing Yi discovered that Xiao Yilin had a sweet tooth, so she made steamed cakes, red bean cakes, biscuits, bean paste bread, etc.

Xiao Yilin follows newcomers every day and is in a good mood.

He held a piece of steamed cake and said: "This steamed cake is soft and delicious, my father must like it, and this biscuit is also delicious. Jingyan, you really have a pair of skillful hands. I don't think even the royal chef in the palace can compare to you. It's just a pity that these cakes can't be given to the emperor. The cakes must have been damaged when they were sent to the capital from Huizhou."

Jing Yi said: "What's the matter, you can send the recipes of these pastries to the capital."

Xiao Yilin shook his head, "The royal chefs in the palace don't have your skills, even if they read the recipe, they may not be able to make this taste."

Jing Yi said: "It can be done after a few experiments. Otherwise, I will make some long-lasting ones. This biscuit can be stored for a long time as long as it is placed in an airtight container, and it is still very crisp. I am frying some twist, Candied dates, sanzi, etc., send them to the emperor together."

Xiao Yilin had never seen these foods before, "Jingyan, I'll try it first if you make it. I'll let the cooks learn from you."

Jing Yi first made the sanzi.To make sanzi, you need to use high-quality flour, add a little salt and water to knead it into a dough, then knead the noodles, cut into strips, knead them into strips, arrange them around the basin, and sprinkle some cooking oil on them.

When the noodles are soaked in the pot and the spring tension is just right, wind the noodles around your hands, stretch them back and forth with your hands, and stretch them into evenly thick sanzi strips, then put them into the oil pan and turn them gently with chopsticks. Master the heat and fry for coloring, and deep-fry into large or small handfuls of golden and crispy sanzi.

Jing Yi made another fried twist.There are sweet and savory flavors of small twists, which are equally crispy and delicious.

Xiao Yilin nodded after eating the Sanzi and Twist, "Well, both of these are delicious, and my father will definitely like them. Thank you, Jingyan. I'll have someone pack up what you made today and send it back to the capital. But I won't be able to do it until after the festival." received."

On the capital side, the gift that Xiao Yilin asked Xiao Zhen to send before has arrived.

Han Li quickly walked into the hall and bowed to report, "Your Majesty, the boxing gift from Prince Jing has arrived, and there is also a letter from Prince Jing."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chenghan immediately put down the brush in his hand, "Oh, present the letter quickly."

Han Li submitted the letter and the gift list together.

Xiao Chenghan opened the letter first, and the more he read it, the happier he became, the corners of his mouth were raised high, overflowing with joy, and then he laughed loudly, "Hahaha, the fourth son is well, the letter said that the toxins in his body are quickly It can be cleared up. In the future, the body will be fully healed after a period of consolidation and recuperation. Now I can practice martial arts a little bit. Great, my Lord of War God of Jin Dynasty is coming back."

Han Li bowed in congratulations, "Congratulations, Your Majesty. When Prince Jing returns, Beiyan will definitely not dare to act rashly again. Those young people in the court will be much more honest."

Xiao Chenghan nodded and continued to read the letter and said: "Yo, this kid also sent me a cook who said he could cook a lot of new food. He also sent me vegetables grown by Dr. Chu himself. It's delicious. Hehehe, it seems that he respects that Doctor Chu very much. He also knows how to care about my meals, which is really a progress."

Xiao Chenghan was so happy, a big stone that was pressing on his heart fell to the ground.As long as his fourth child returns safely, the situation in the court will be much more stable.

Han Li smiled and said: "Your Majesty, this shows that Prince Jing has always been thinking about you. I saw the vegetables that Prince Jing sent, and the Chinese cabbage grows really well. It is said that there is a new kind of heart. Beautiful radish. Tonight, I will ask the cook sent by Prince Jing's mansion to cook some dishes for you to try."

Xiao Chenghan nodded, "Okay, let the cook make some food for a taste. Later, you send the boxing gift that the fourth brother gave to Concubine Shu to her palace."

After reading the letter, Xiao Chenghan picked up the gift list and looked at it. There were gold, silver and jade wares, some furs, mountain products, and some precious medicinal materials.There are also those vegetables grown by Dr. Chu.

At dinner, Xiao Chenghan ate his son's filial piety.The cook from Prince Jing's mansion had learned cooking skills from Jing Yi, and today he made steamed dumplings stuffed with braised pork, cabbage and pork, made ribs and radish soup with white radish, and made sweet and sour shredded radish with Xinmei radish.

In addition to the meals made by other cooks, there were many dishes on Xiao Chenghan's dining table.

Han Li was waiting on the sidelines, and the aroma of the braised pork continued to penetrate his nose, making him swallow involuntarily.

He lifted the lid of the porcelain pot containing the pork rib soup, and a strong fragrance wafted out.

Xiao Chenghan pointed to the braised pork, and Han Li immediately picked up a few fat and thin pieces of meat and put them in the bowl in front of Xiao Chenghan.

Han Li said: "Your Majesty, this is called braised pork. It is said that Doctor Chu taught the cooks in Prince Jing's residence to make it. You can try it."
