delicious little cook

Chapter 658

In the end, Bai Kou drove Gu Yun out of the tent and asked him to invite his companions to hunt foxes. The fox farm needs more fresh foxes to maintain the population.

Gu Yun licked his lips unsatisfactorily, and walked leisurely out of the camp, but met a distinguished guest at the gate of the camp. The eldest daughter of the crown prince, Princess Jingyun, brought a group of little sisters to look for Bai Kou, followed by a group of other people in the carriage. Bringing a lot of ingredients, Gu Yun asked people to hurry to find Bai Kou, while he personally led the group of little ladies to the kitchen.

At that time, Bai Kou was in the maidservant's tent, and heard that Princess Jingyun was taking the lead, and a group of noble girls came to learn cooking from him. After being dazed for a moment, she hurriedly changed into the clothes in the kitchen and rushed to the kitchen to greet her.

The two parties arrived at the same time, Bai Kou led the cooks and cooks to salute the noble ladies, and then all the men backed away, and the kitchen was full of women for a while.

Along with Princess Jingyun, there were noble daughters from Prince Bie’s family, and cousins ​​from Zhu’s family, Marquis of Fuyang. There were about a dozen of them in total, and every young lady followed maids and servants. So many people stood Together, pack a spacious kitchen to the brim.

"I just came back from the imperial camp, and I didn't notice that Princess Jingyun came to participate in the winter hunting this year. Please forgive me."

"The imperial grandmother brought me here, and she has been sitting in her tent. How would you know? Those who don't know are innocent." Gong Jingyun waved her hands boldly like her mother and concubine.

"Thank you, Princess."

"Okay, okay, stop being polite, so many of us are not here to chat with you."

"I see, I brought so many ingredients, do you want to make baked snacks?"

"I can't forget the pudding you made before, but the Royal Kitchen doesn't know how to make it. Can you teach us?"

"Okay, this is not a secret recipe, it's an entry-level dim sum." Bai Kou said with a smile, "You go wash your hands with the cooks first, and the servants will arrange these ingredients."

As soon as Bai Kou finished speaking, the cooks started to take action. They brought hot water from the cauldron and turned it into warm water outside to serve the ladies to wash their hands. There was a table, and they prepared all their own tools, which were exactly the same as those used by Bai Kou. One could tell at a glance that the women of the clan used the craftsmanship of Donglinfang craftsmen, and the ladies of the Fuyang Houfu used the ones of Zhangji Iron Shop. craft.

No way, every time I go to Donglinfang to customize tools, it is tantamount to contributing the style map. Fortunately, those who are qualified to use Donglinfang's utensils are the clan circle, and other people can only follow Zhang Jitie It is an exclusive operation, and the grandfather and uncles also gave Bai Kou a generous share of the profits.

After a while, the table was cleared, and the noble ladies washed their hands and came in. Bai Kou saw that there were too many people in the kitchen, so he only allowed one maidservant for each noble lady, and the rest went to the dining room to rest and wait. They took the food and stayed in the dining room together, leaving the kitchen to Bai Kou and the ladies.

Except for Princess Jingyun, the other noble ladies all have some culinary skills. Gong Jingyun lived in the East Palace since she was a child, and she didn't know which direction the door of the imperial kitchen opened. She and her maidservants were all clumsy, but Bai Kou asked the two of them to boil milk on the stove while others watched.

The milk is boiled and divided into ten parts. Everyone has a bowl in front of them. When the milk cools down to the point where it is not hot, add eggs and stir evenly, then add cream and stir again. For a quarter of an hour, pour it into a baking bowl. The preheating of the oven is also very particular. How hot it is is a matter of experience. The women identify the different fires, wait until the oven is ready, add some water to the baking tray with the baking bowl and send it into the oven, and just clean up the table while waiting for the completion of the final time.

The noble ladies brought enough ingredients, so that everyone can practice. In the end, there were a lot of preparations, but the oven was too small, so they couldn’t finish baking at one time, so they could only bake a batch and eat a batch. Caramel was boiled on the table, and the ladies were asked to cut some fruit cubes at will, so they made creme brulee and fruit pudding. The maidservants brought food boxes from the car and packed the leftover pudding together go back.

"The custard pudding is made hot, and there is also a cold method using fish gelatin powder, but it takes longer, but it is very suitable for summer. I make it in the morning and put it in the ice cellar, and it is just right to eat it in the afternoon."

The ladies immediately became excited, gathered around Bai Kou and agreed to teach them how to do it next summer, and Bai Kou agreed with all of them with a smile.

"Can we come to learn dim sum every day these few days?" Gong Jingyun asked expectantly.

"Okay, no problem, just come and make sure that no one dares to have any objections in this camp, but it's not too early. The sage wants slaves to serve tea for a few days, and today's time is pretty good."

"Okay, it's a deal, we'll come when you come out of the imperial camp."

The noble ladies happily returned to their respective cars. Bai Kou watched their cars leave and stretched lazily. It seems that this year's winter hunting is really not as tiring as the previous two times. Teaching the ladies how to bake is also quite Fun.

The girls returned to their camp with fresh puddings to share with their relatives and friends. The news quickly spread among the female relatives, attracting more people who wanted to attend the date tomorrow. The congregation of the Pomegranate Club also found Tong Mingli and invited her The vice president came forward to discuss whether they could also participate.

Tong Mingli then set off to look for Bai Kou, and sat in the carriage before realizing that it was the small camp where Gu Yun lived, her face suddenly became slightly hot, remembering that she hadn't seen him for a long time, she couldn't help complaining in her heart why the carriage was going so fast slow.

After seeing off the guests, Bai Kou started working on dinner. Seeing that she was busy, Tong Mingli didn't waste time, so she directly asked the girls from the pomegranate club tomorrow if they could come together.

"You can come if you can, but it's best not to squeeze in time with the Princess and the others. Although they came here today with only a dozen ladies, they came with a group of maids and maids. The kitchen was full."

"I don't know when is it convenient?"

"In the morning, I only have time to greet you in the morning. Do you want to learn hot dishes or dim sum?"

"Isn't the kitchen busy all morning?"

"If you're busy, let's make dim sum. You can make it in the restaurant, and it won't take up space in the kitchen."

"Okay, thank you, I'll go back and tell them."

Tong Mingli was overjoyed, said goodbye and turned to get in the car, but stopped suddenly, her face began to turn red.

Seeing that she reacted strangely, Bai Kou followed her gaze and suddenly realized that it was the prince who came over.

"Why did the prince come to the kitchen? Dinner is being made here, it's a mess, don't get your clothes dirty." Bai Kou immediately left Tong Mingli behind and went up to Gu Yun.

"Look for some tea."

"Huh? Where are Qinglan and the others?"

"Who knows where he went to play."

"All right, all right, you go back to the tent first, I'll serve right away."

Gu Yun nodded, his eyes swept away, as if he just saw Tong Mingli present.

"Hey, it turns out that Tong's cousin is here too. I'm so sorry. I didn't see you just now. It's all because I was patronizing for water."

"Brother Gu San, long time no see."

"It's been a while since I saw you. Why do you come here when you have time? Looking for Bai Kou? By the way, Princess Cheng has a lot of things to do now, and I have to rely on you, the vice president, for the affairs of the Pomegranate Club. It's really hard work."

"It's all for the happiness of the sisters, it should be, it's not hard." Tong Mingli gave a gentle blessing, and slowly raised her eyes to look at Gu Yun, "It's getting late, I'll go back first."

"Well, okay, the sun is about to go down, you should go back quickly, it won't be good if you get sick when the night wind blows."

"Thank you cousin Gu San for your concern, I'm leaving."

With the support of the girl, Tong Mingli got into the carriage like a willow in Fufeng, and the carriage turned around and drove out of the camp.

Bai Kou washed her hands now, and brought out a pot of boiling water. Seeing this, Gu Yun went back to his tent with her.

The tent was warm and full of charcoal fire, but there was no one who was supposed to be staying with a girl. Bai Kou first made tea to warm the prince's hands, and then mixed warm water to help him wash his hands, wash his face and change his clothes. After warming up, Gu Yun sat comfortably in the fur-covered chair, sat Bai Kou on his lap, squinted his eyes and fell asleep comfortably.
