Chapter 343 Rose Flower Cake

Edible roses are different from the colorful roses you usually see.

That kind of rose should be called Chinese rose to be more precise.

The rose varieties that have been passed down in China since ancient times only come in two colors: purple and white.

In ancient times, there was a custom of making nectar from fragrant roses, such as the rose dew that Mrs. Wang gave to Baoyu in "Dream of Red Mansions".

The Chinese love to eat roses and are good at eating them, so they will naturally not miss the fragrant roses, and thus various ways of eating roses have been derived.

It is used to make rose jam, which is considered the most classic one.

There were two baskets full of roses in front of them, all picked by Nanzhi and Lu Shixu from the branches. Each crown was large and full, and the petals were gorgeous and tempting.

Sister Fan was also very satisfied and praised them:

"I didn't expect you to work so efficiently. You're not much worse than the employees on our farm!"

Nanzhi was praised and laughed out loud with her head raised.

When Lu Shixu saw her smile, he smiled too.

The cooking process is carried out in a pleasant atmosphere——

Sister Fan probably hasn't seen "The Cubs", so she naturally wants to teach Nanzhi Lu Shixu.

Nanzhi smiled and declined, saying she would.

Although it was my first time picking roses, it was not my first time making rose jam.

Nanzhi likes the sweet taste of rose jam and makes a lot of flower jam every spring. The oldest jar has been fermented for nearly 10 years, and the taste is so rich that it almost turns into substance.

So, she skillfully removed the stamens, washed the petals and pounded them repeatedly, then filtered out the excess juice with gauze, then added sugar, ground and rubbed them until each complete rose flower became a very fine and uniform mud paste.

Then, organic honey and nuts produced on the farm are added to enrich the flavor and taste.

Sister Fan just watched curiously at first, but within 2 minutes, she knew that Nanzhi must be a master cook.

Such a skilled posture was beyond her reach, and made her look forward to the taste of the rose jam even more.

After the rose jam was ready, Sister Fan took the initiative to ask for a taste.

Nanzhi generously picked some up for her with a spoon.

Sister Fan: "Wow! It's so delicious, not astringent at all! How did Miss Nan make it? We make rose jam ourselves, and if it's not fermented, it always tastes astringent!"

Nanzhi replied: "It's probably because you didn't knead it enough. You should do this..."

Nanzhi never keeps anything to herself.

During live broadcasts, she can talk to millions of viewers and share her cooking secrets.

To Sister Fan, I taught her everything without reservation.

In the middle, we even let Sister Fan try it out.

Although the final taste is somewhat inferior to the rose jam made by Nanzhi, it is much better than the rose jam made by Sister Fan before.

Sister Fan kept giving Nanzhi a thumbs up and was completely convinced of her cooking skills.

Later, Nanzhi wanted to make flower cakes. Sister Fan didn't even dare to move her eyes away and kept every step in mind.

Nanzhi thinks the method of making flower cake is not difficult. It is nothing more than wrapping the oil pastry with oil skin, rolling it into dough, and then wrapping it with rose filling made of rose jam.

"It's very simple, you will learn it once you see it!"

Nanzhi promised solemnly.

Sister Fan, who was dazzled by what she saw, said: …

"Um, Miss Nan, how did you rub it just now? Your technique was too fast, I didn't see it."

Nanzhi was not impatient at all and taught it again from the beginning.

This time Sister Fan understood, and she said “oh” several times, then did as she was told. She was considered a good learner.

Nanzhi nodded with satisfaction:
"Sister Fan is very smart."

Sister Fan laughed and said, "No, no."

As the two were chatting and laughing, they suddenly felt that the temperature around them seemed to have dropped.

When he turned around, it was indeed the silent Lu Shixu, looking dimly at Nanzhi and Sister Fan, who had completely forgotten about him during their interaction.

Sister Fan was a little panicked.

She felt so relaxed around Miss Nan. Mr. Lu's usual aloofness was gone. He was so approachable that she forgot how intimidating Mr. Lu was. Although Sister Fan relied on the friendship between them, she still had awe for her boss, and she immediately bowed her head to apologize.

Seeing this, Nanzhi smiled and patted Sister Fan's hand, indicating that everything was okay.

She asked Lu Shixu as if nothing had happened:

"Why? You want to learn too?"

The coldness all over Lu Shixu's body softened instantly, like a docile wolfhound.

He spontaneously moved to the position closest to Nanzhi and quietly pushed Sister Fan aside.

Then he asked Nanzhi curiously:

"how should I do?"

Nanzhi taught him carefully step by step.

Apart from anything else, Lu Shixu was at least very satisfied with the close distance between the two of them.

As a result, the little dissatisfaction that had just been forgotten on the edge also disappeared.

Sister Fan quietly stepped back a few steps and breathed a sigh of relief.

Turning around, I thought of Miss Nan's superb dog training skills and couldn't help laughing again.

It is a smile of relief and joy.

Obviously, as a student, Lu Shixu is far inferior to Sister Fan in cooking.

Thanks to Nanzhi's patience, she even held his hand in the end.

This allowed Lu Shixu to learn how to make flower cakes after repeating it for the fifth time.

The corners of Lu Shixu's mouth curled up in a satisfied arc.

Nanzhi realized it later:

"Huh? Why do I feel like you did this on purpose?"

"Have it?"

Lu Shixu remained calm and composed, without showing any scheming.

Nanzhi thought about it carefully, but found no problem, so he didn't pursue it further.

"It's time to send it to be roasted now. Sister Fan, there is a kiln on the farm, right?"

Sister Fan responded repeatedly and said that she would leave the rest.

Nanzhi was about to nod, but then he changed his mind and realized that the baking temperature was very important and it couldn't be ruined at the last step.

"I'd better go by myself."

How could Sister Fan not respond?

She drove Nanzhi Lu Shixu to the back kitchen area where the kiln was located.

They came suddenly and caught a group of employees who were slacking off and eating melons in the kitchen.

The employees first saw Sister Fan, who was walking in front. Perhaps because they had a good relationship with her, they were very relaxed and greeted her with a smile:
"Sister Fan, you're here? Why didn't the boss follow you...ah!"

There was total silence.

Lu Shixu appeared silently behind Sister Fan like a cold-faced Shura, and easily captured the fear of all the employees with his casual attitude.

Everyone quickly lowered their heads and began to look for things to do at hand.

Perhaps Lu Shixu's intimidation was too great, so some people actually cooked on the stove without fire, and the iron pot made a scratching sound.

"Pfft."

A crisp laugh broke the silence and eased the awkward atmosphere.

Sister Fan, who was as quiet as a cicada, quickly explained:

"There's nothing important to do today, so it's inevitable that everyone will be a little relaxed..."

Lu Shixu hummed, not seeming to care.

Sister Fan wanted to divert attention, so she quickly pulled Nanzhi through the kitchen and towards the kiln.

As expected, Lu Shixu followed automatically, even more accurately than the program set by the robot.
