Chef Mad Queen

Chapter 1502
The emperor has the custom of bacon on this day in heavy snow. A group of people have been arguing in this kitchen for a long time, and they gradually became interested. They even clamored to follow the custom and try to make bacon. Asahi did it herself.

"This bacon is not good for cooking!"

Feng Qian retorted, but Xuanyuan Che was very firm. He placed Feng Qian on the seat and said, "Sit here and guide people how to do it. You are not allowed to do it yourself."

This... I don't know if the system will count as cooking by myself if I cook under my own guidance.

[Master, dishes that are not made by yourself are not counted! 】

Feng Qian just thought about it in her heart, she didn't expect that Fan Fan came out early to block her thoughts, but seeing Xuanyuan Che's uncompromising expression, Feng Qian could only compromise.

"Okay, okay, I'll just sit on the sidelines, never intervene, just talk about it, okay!"

Only then did Xuanyuanche smile with satisfaction: "You're still obedient."

Making cured meat is a big battle, and nine out of ten of them have never been in the kitchen, so Feng Qian specially ordered everyone to help together. Aunt Qing He and Ye Zisu brought the servants of Wanjin Pavilion to Daxue On this day, I was busy beating gongs and drums.

This cured meat was originally prepared for the New Year's feast. Furthermore, Star Emperor's birthday is gradually approaching, so if I serve this cured meat at that time, I think Star Emperor will definitely like it!

Aunt Qing He added seasonings such as star anise, cinnamon, pepper, and sugar to the white salt used to marinate the meat, poured it into the pot, and fried it skillfully.

Young Master Xiang looked at this prosperous scene, and thought that his Wanjin Pavilion might really become like a dining room, but this time Feng Qian didn't force him to participate, but mobilized all staff.Except for those cooks, the rest of the attendants have almost never cooked, but today I heard that Feng Qian was going to instruct everyone to make bacon. This is a rare opportunity, and it is very attractive!
The little servants and servants helped the meat washers to wash the meat and light the fire. After Aunt Qing He cooled the overcooked pepper and salt, the cooks on the other side did the same.

Ye Zisu carefully smeared the cooled pepper and salt on the washed and chopped meat, and the maidservants followed suit. Aunt Qing He instructed: "When wiping the meat, be careful. Be sure to get the marinade on every corner."

"Yes! Auntie!"

The little girls seem to be very interested in this kitchen thing, all of them are full of energy, working with their hands, with smiles on their faces.

Gongzi Xiang looked at these young girls, all of them were smiling, he had never seen them so lively and happy like today, and he couldn't help being happy too.

Seeing Young Master Xiang's unconcealable smile, Feng Qian asked, "What is Young Master laughing at?"

"Why didn't the owner of the pavilion realize that these little girls have such a lively side? It really is because the old Wanjin Pavilion was too quiet and suppressed their nature."

"Who told you to act inscrutable all day long? Obviously you are only a man of the same age as Archer, and you are not an old man. Why do you want to live this life in a lifeless way? As the saying goes, what Such a master has all the servants he wants, Hong Ming next to you is clearly a young man, but he insists on forging an old-fashioned look, no good, no good."

Young Master Xiang bowed with his hands behind his back and said, "Miss Feng's words are very reasonable. Zi Xiang has been educated."

And Tang Chenyu brought out the newly made salted peanuts from the kitchen as snacks for everyone.Hua Mengying grabbed a handful casually, threw it into the air and opened her mouth to catch it, it was a joy to play.

"I also want to eat sweet-scented osmanthus rice cake, Chen Yu, please arrange it." Bu Jingyue said without hesitation.

What Tang Chenyu could do, he could only quickly turn around and bury his head back, and continue to do it.

In the courtyard, Ye Zisu taught the little girls how to make bacon.She picked up a piece of fresh meat and demonstrated: "After putting the pepper and salt on it, remember to knead and massage repeatedly until the color of the meat turns from bright to dark, and the work is not finished."

"It's my first time to massage meat!"

"It turns out that cooking is so interesting!"

The little girls were talking and laughing, and their work became more vigorous. Originally, in this world, what kind of power, status, gold, silver and wealth can compare with the joy of cooking three meals a day?
Steaming puffer fish in spring, making iced drinks in summer, brewing fine wine in autumn, and making cured meat in winter, this is the human spirit brought by the fireworks in the kitchen.

Aunt Qing He checked them one by one, and when she saw liquid seeping out from the surface of the meat, she said, "That's all right, put the meat and the salt on it into a porcelain jar, compact it with stones, Don't get mad!"

"Okay! I'm going to move the big tank!"

"Your slender arms and legs, how can you move it, let me help you!"

"Then hurry up, you see those boys are rushing to move, and we won't have any later!"

The little girls don't want to lose to the little servants at all, they scramble to be the first.

Xuanyuanche laughed and said, "Zixiang, the girls and servants in the Wanjin Pavilion, are nothing like you, the pavilion master!"

Young Master Xiang asked back, "Why did Archer say that?"

"Look at you little servant and the little maids, all of them are innocent and bright, but the master of the young pavilion is quite a man of the city, isn't he a little bit different?"

"Haha, you're starting to make fun of me too!" Young Master Xiang smiled and looked at those innocent figures, "They were originally a group of poor children. Since they were destined to enter the Wanjin Pavilion, I should protect them."

"It's really hard for you to manage such a large family business by yourself."

"Hard work is natural, but it's worth it."

The subordinates actively put the well-marinated meat into the tank according to Aunt Qing He's order, and before they even had time to wash their hands, they asked, "Auntie, what are you going to do next?"

Aunt Qing He turned around, saluted Feng Qian who was sitting, and said, "Your Majesty, everything is done."

Feng Qian stood up, walked in front of everyone, and said, "Move the big vat to a cool, dark place and put it there for half a month."

A greedy little servant girl asked, "Your Majesty, after half a month, can you just take it out and eat it?"

As soon as the words came out, everyone couldn't help laughing, even Feng Qian was amused, she said: "Where can I eat it directly? You need to take out the marinade of the bacon, add water and boil it , put the marinated meat in the pot and boil it, take it out and put it in the vat again, after ten days, take it out and put it under the eaves until it dries, then it’s done.”

After hearing His Majesty's words, the little servant girl couldn't help saying: "Ah? Are you still in such trouble?"

"Of course, if this food is too easy to get, wouldn't people not know how to cherish it?"
