The Splendid Peasant Girl of Space

Chapter 50 Taro
"Yeah, this is what uncle has been unable to figure out. You said that the cooking process is different, and the taste may be different, but I even remember every step of your cooking process, but I still can't make your taste. What's going on? Is there some trick in it?"

"Yes, but it's not the trick, it's this." As he spoke, he took out a small white porcelain bottle from his sleeve and put it on the table as if by magic. "This is the one that makes my dishes taste better than your Uncle Hong's."

"Qingyan, how can you do this? This is to prescribe medicine to the guests. What if they feel unwell, what can I do?" Lu Chengfu turned pale with shock, and Hong Dingshan also showed disapproval.

Shen Qingyan also thought that there would be such a reaction, but she didn't care, shrugged her shoulders easily, and said, "Isn't there no accident after using it for so long? And this kind of thing is not addictive, so I have to eat it, If Uncle Fu doesn't believe it, you can show it to a trusted doctor."

"Then what exactly is this?" Hong Dingshan thinks about it, Shen Qingyan has not been in Chengfuji for a day or two, if there is an accident, it will have happened earlier, and we have to wait until now.

"Actually, this is a condiment, just like the salt we commonly use in the kitchen, but it is optional. I call it monosodium glutamate, and it is used to enhance freshness." Shen Qingyan found that there are not many condiments in this era, and there are not many condiments in modern times. All kinds of monosodium glutamate, simply borrow this name to use it. "Not only does this thing have no side effects, but it also has the effect of strengthening the body. It is made of many kinds of medicinal materials, so you can relax. How could I harm Chengfuji? But in order to prevent people who are interested in making a big fuss about it, I It is recommended to mix this monosodium glutamate with the salt that is usually used in every dish, anyway, it is a medicinal material, and adding more or less will not cause any problems."

"Qingyan, uncle, ask again, why are you so cautious, and where did you get this monosodium glutamate." Hong Dingshan was still a little uncertain.

"I made this myself, the quantity is not much, and the prescription was given by my mother." Now, if there is anything that cannot be explained, she will push it on Song Cuiyun. Will Cheng Fu Ji's business be the same as before? If more people know about it, some people will inevitably become greedy. Then, Cheng Fu Ji can't produce so much monosodium glutamate, and can't explain the source. ?"

Lu Chengfu nodded when he heard this, but he was still puzzled, "Then why didn't you take it out at the beginning, but now, you don't know, that cooking competition made Lao Hong awkward for a long time."

"It's Qingyan's fault, but at the beginning I wasn't sure if it would work, even though I knew my mother wouldn't lie to me, but there was always a contingency in everything, so during that time, my sisters and I ate I also put monosodium glutamate, and I was relieved when I saw that everyone was fine." Shen Qingyan explained, "Besides, there were no medicinal materials for making monosodium glutamate at that time, and my mother gave me what I used at that time, and I had to ask for money to buy it. Medicinal ingredients, these are what I made."

Lu Chengfu and Hong Dingshan looked at the small bottle, then looked at Shen Qingyan, and waited for her next words, and Shen Qingyan said again: "Chengfu Ji has only one chef, Master Hong, and it will not change in the future. In fact, if I can't trust the two elders , you can directly mix the monosodium glutamate into the salt, anyway, the color is the same, no one will notice, I forgot to do that day."

"Then you mean that Cheng Fu Ji will be ignored in the future?" Lu Chengfu finally heard something, but what about those novel dishes.

"It's not that I don't care, it's just that I will come here every once in a while to think about new dishes for Chengfuji." Shen Qingyan said: "My sister and I are girls after all, it's not good to go in and out of restaurants like this, wasn't it at the beginning With this in mind, did you always push Uncle Hong to the front? I want to try to do other things with Yuer." Finally she said frankly.

Seeing that Shen Qingyan had reached this point, Lu Chengfu and Hong Dingshan didn't say anything more. Indeed, it's not good for a girl's reputation to show her face in places like restaurants all the year round.

Shen Qingyan will be fifteen in two years. In the countryside, girls of this age should discuss marriage, and there are not a few who even get married. Therefore, it is not unreasonable for Shen Qingyan to say this now. Even if she ignores her reputation, she The reputation of that baby sister must also be taken into account.Just don't know what she wants to do in the future.

Hearing Lu Anyang's question, Shen Qingyan smiled, "I didn't think about it, but now the people in the village are very nice, but there are too few fields in the village, so I wonder if I can open up a piece of wasteland and grow some fresh food myself. Look, isn't it still not very different from this line?"

"That's true." Hong Dingshan first laughed, and then asked seriously, "Just now I saw a big bag of things in the kitchen, you brought it here, right? Is it some fresh material?"

As soon as Lu Chengfu heard that he was refreshed, he looked helplessly at Shen Qingyan who was eating, his little eyes were full of resentment, "Qingyan, don't bring such things, why does Lao Hong know what you brought, but Uncle Fu doesn't know, Not as partial as you."

After hearing this, Shen Qingyan couldn't laugh or cry, why did she feel that Lu Chengfu's temper was becoming more and more like a child's, even Shen Qingyu didn't seem to be able to ask such unnutritious questions.

"Uncle Fu, don't tell me, you haven't been in the back kitchen all day long." Shen Qingyan swallowed the food in her mouth, and said with a slight headache: "I put the bag of taro in such a conspicuous place, and you never saw it? And I was taken aback by your expressions when I came here, and then I went to the county government office, and I didn't have a chance to say okay?"

Lu Chengfu blushed, he really hadn't been to the back kitchen today, but then he choked at Hong Dingshan, "Qingyan brought something, why didn't you tell me when you saw it."

"I thought you already knew. Usually when Qingyan arrives, don't you always go to the back kitchen for a couple of rounds?" Hong Dingshan said bluntly, "You are lazy."

"However, Qingyan, what is this taro, and what kind of food is it used for?" After choking on Lu Chengfu, he turned his attention to the things Shen Qingyan brought.

Hong Dingshan is a truly qualified chef. Shen Qingyan praised him in her heart, swallowed the last bite of rice, and said calmly: "This taro was also found on the mountain, but it is Pingshan next to Jiangping Village. Not only can it be cooked, but it can also be eaten as food."

"What? Can you still control your hunger?" Lu Chengfu didn't care about getting angry, and turned his head to ask.

"Of course, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn can be used as food, but at the same time, they can also be used to make many delicious dishes, dim sum, and taro, of course." Shen Qingyan had a confident smile on her face. The handsome face makes people feel more attractive.
