Guozijian little cook

Yan Xingxuan, who had no idea that his duck was being missed again, let Laishun return to the carriage with the brine jar in his arms.

Xiao Nianzhi was in the carriage behind him, so it's not easy to share this matter for the time being.

After they entered the city, they had to go back to the yamen of Shanglinyuan to check in, and then they could find a place to prepare their lovely dinner.

As for the location, Lord Yu was afraid that it would be too high-profile in Wei Wang's mansion, so his suggestion was to go back to his own mansion, since his yard is not small anyway.

It doesn't matter to Xiao Nianzhi, he can go to anyone's house.

Yan Xingxuan also listened to her, so Master Yu said that after they checked in, they went directly to the other party's house.

Cong Xiangwu and Xu Nian were embarrassed to accompany them, even though Xiao Nianzhi kindly invited them, they still refused.

Master Yu lives in Lu'an Lane, which is mostly a gathering place for officials, but compared to Zhuque Street, the rank of officials is relatively lower.

Liu'an Lane is not too far from Changqing Street. It is three streets away, and it takes about a little more time to walk a stick of incense by horse-drawn carriage.

When we arrived at the gate of Lord Yu's mansion, seeing everyone get off the car, Lord Yu explained with a smile: "There are few people in my house and it is quiet, Your Highness and the Lord of the Township don't need to worry about it."

After being on duty, Master Yu thought about it, and thought that Xiao Nianzhi should have another identity.

Xiao Nianzhi adapts well to this.

In fact, she doesn't know much about the situation in Mrs. Yu's house, but she worked all day today and had dinner together, and accumulated a little friendship.

Now that the other party invited, Yan Xingxuan didn't object, presumably she knew it well, so she followed.

Without Yan Xingxuan's company, Xiao Nianzhi would not easily agree to go to a colleague's house for dinner.

after all……

Her situation is special, her colleagues are almost all men!
Although most of them are honest and upright, they will not have other thoughts, but Xiao Nianzhi still has to protect himself as the premise.

It was only after Xiao Nianzhi entered the gate of Yu's residence that he realized that Mr. Yu said that his residence is quiet, it is really...

It was already dark at this moment, and the house was very quiet, except for their footsteps and some small noises prepared by the servants, nothing else could be heard.

Master Yu invited them to the banquet hall first, and then to the kitchen.

After all, the rabbit head hasn't been made yet, of course, they can't just eat the rabbit head.

Although Master Yu thinks that the cooking skills of the cook in his house are mediocre, but...

If they come here, and come to his house, then Xiao Nianzhi and Yan Xingxuan will be regarded as guests, the rabbit head and the others can't help, but the rest must be prepared by their own house.

So he spoke to the cook.

He eats it for daily use and is not luxurious.

As soon as the cook heard that a distinguished guest had arrived, she immediately got busy, and the butler sent two maidservants and a servant to help.

Can't cook, can't handle ingredients?
Xiao Nianzhi still needs to marinate the rabbit's head, so he definitely needs to join in.

Before the rabbit head is officially stewed, it needs to be blanched to remove the fishy smell.

After removing the fishy smell layer by layer, the taste of the rabbit head can become more delicious.

Therefore, this step is also very important. The onion, ginger and other spices must be added to the water for blanching the rabbit head.

A lot of spices took away the fishy smell left on the rabbit's head.

After blanching, rinse and then process the brine.

The marinating time needs to be longer to make it more delicious.

Therefore, half an hour is the base time.

For rabbit heads, this time is enough to taste delicious.

If you want to eat something heavier, you can marinate it for a longer period of time.

During the waiting time, Xiao Nianzhi did not stay in the kitchen.

Although it is getting colder and colder today, once the kitchen is busy, it will be hot and smoky.

So, she didn't stay and came out to prepare some tea.

Master Yu just bought fresh oranges two days ago, after Xiao Nianzhi saw them, he peeled them carefully, and then made oolong tea.

The orange-flavored oolong has both tea and fruity aromas. It tastes refreshing and relieves greasiness. It is very suitable for them to eat tonight.

Xiao Nianzhi moved swiftly, and the little cook over there was about to wave the shovel to smoke!
After a busy trip, the rabbit's head was almost stewed.

At this point, it’s not over yet, we still need to fry the red oil to make the rabbit’s head more flavorful, and at the same time to completely cover up the spicy and delicious taste, and the rabbit’s head may still have a little bit of fishy smell left.

Xiao Nianzhi moved quickly, but...

The spicy aroma of the red oil is overbearing and wafts out directly.

Master Yu was still talking to Yan Xingxuan at first, although he had no intention of climbing up, but he couldn't stand in the cold and let a prince stay here and say nothing, right?
So, I still have to find something to talk about, it's okay to be a little embarrassed, just don't be cold!

As a result, a strong spicy scent wafted over suddenly, Master Yu couldn't control it, and took a big gulp!

Well!
It's too delicious!

The combination of spicy and hot oil is originally a fierce collision of food, and the aroma that burst out at the end is overbearing and unreasonable, and it floats directly into the distance along the cool wind.

Master Yu was afraid of being rude, so he sat in the pavilion outside the kitchen and waited.

As soon as the fragrance wafted out, it hit his face directly.

He sucked in this one, and he didn't feel choked, but felt very comfortable.

This made Mr. Yu couldn't help but reflect: Is he really from Jiangnan?
No... Come to him, mutated, right?

Master Yu usually eats spicy food, and when he eats in the street ahead, he occasionally adds cornel chili oil to wontons or noodles.

But, I don't eat much, Master Yu has always felt that he is actually not particularly good at spicy food.

It's just that the sip just now was called a natural and comfortable one.

Therefore, he has doubts about his level of eating spicy food, or his ability.

This fragrance, along with the cold wind, drifted to the backyard.

Yu Shujing, who was reading a book under the lamp, smelled the faint scent, and asked the maid beside her in a low voice: "Has father eaten yet?"

The fragrance wafted in the wind, and in the backyard, it was actually not strong anymore.

However, it can still be smelled, which should belong to gourmet food, with a faint smell.

Yu Shujing didn't feel greedy, after all, the impact was not obvious, she just asked out of curiosity.

When her father came back, he sent someone to tell her that there were male guests in the house, and it was up to her to decide if she couldn't think of meeting anyone.

Yu Shujing wasn't going to go out, and her father didn't force her, which meant that she could see her or not.

She didn't want to impress today's guests. When a male guest came, she couldn't wait to go out and have a look, as if she hated being married.

Maybe other people wouldn't have such an idea, but Yu Shujing didn't want others to misunderstand her.

I was thinking about the time when my father would return to the mansion, it must be an hour, right?
Haven't eaten for so long?
Yu Shujing was really curious!
