Chapter 447 Lotus Seed Porridge (Recipe)
A few days ago, Yu Feizhong was admitted to the National Academy of Chinese Studies from a young age.

In order to reward his younger brother and to use resources rationally, Yu Feicheng sent him to patrol the capital every morning and evening to maintain law and order in the capital, so that it would not affect his schooling, and would not waste his status as the county king.

As for Chai Keji, he volunteered to be transferred from the idle department.

Working in a fixed place, although free but unable to move, is simply an embarrassment for a lively person like Chai Keji.

How good is the law and order patrolling the capital? It is not only an important position, but also able to walk back and forth.

The most important thing is that from time to time, you can pass by the gate of the Prince's Mansion in Qingping County to satisfy Comrade Lao Chai's inner joy.

At first, Yu Feique waited in the county palace shyly and timidly.

After a long time, she figured out the patrol rules of Chai Keji and Yu Feizhong, and she became more bold. Sometimes she took the initiative to go out to talk to them, and sometimes she simply gave them some food that Qiao Lianlian made.

After that, every time I passed by, I didn't empty my hands.

Today, the lotus seed soup that Qiao repeatedly made looked good, so Yu Feique wanted to share it.

She definitely didn't want to see that silly big man anymore.

Absolutely not!

But Qiao Lianlian is so shrewd, he can see through the child's little thoughts at a glance.

There was a smile on the corner of her mouth, she didn't expose Hanchun's girl, she just stirred the translucent thick soup slowly, and said with a smile, "Okay, it's cold, give them more to warm their bodies, Que'er will feel distressed Brother."

Yu Feique nodded seriously, as if she really just ran this trip out of love for her younger brother.

Li Chunhua handed over the food box with a smile, Qiao Lian connected it, scooped spoonful after spoonful of thick soup, accompanied by the aroma of peanuts, melon seeds, sesame, hawthorn and beans inside, echoing in the noses of everyone.

Lotus seed porridge, also known as lotus seed soup, is not difficult to make, mainly because the extraction of lotus root powder is a bit troublesome.

Qiao Lianlian also wanted to eat lotus root noodles a while ago, only to find that the Dayu Dynasty didn't have this thing.

But there are lotus roots. She will never stop eating whatever she wants, and she will not be afraid of troubles, so she immediately asks Liu Erge to buy several hundred catties of lotus roots.

At that time, the weather had already entered winter, and it was not the season for lotus root to be marketed. Many shops only had scattered lotus root joints, and there were very few huge fresh long lotus roots.

Second Brother Liu stayed in the Prince's Mansion in Qingping County for a while, and he was very familiar with many traders outside. This seemed rather difficult problem, but he solved it in less than half a day.

Soon, hundreds of catties of lotus root were transported to Lianxin Pavilion.

Brother Liu showed a smiling face like a chrysanthemum, and asked Qiao for credit repeatedly, "How about it, sister Xiao Qiao, I'm right, I still have some use for my second brother, right?"

Qiao repeatedly smiled and nodded, "Second brother is naturally powerful. I think you can take over the butler's affairs after the old butler retires. It just so happens that Gouwa's illness won't be cured in a short time."

These words hit Second Brother Liu's heart, he nodded hastily, "Yes, of course it is."

Although he was only a small butler of the county prince's mansion, but the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door, he was Liu Lao Er who was the top ranked.

If it weren't for Qiao Lianlian's relationship, he would have been a small businessman for the rest of his life, and it would be impossible for him to get in touch with the business circle of the capital, let alone being called a brother by many people as soon as he went out, and clinging to him.

"Then little sister Qiao is busy first. I'm going to do other things. If I don't have enough lotus root, I'll find someone else to buy it." Second brother Liu was slick in his work and smart in life, so he left Lianxin Pavilion in a short time.

Qiao Lianlian began to direct the little maid to wash the lotus root festival.

Sometimes, having a status is a good thing to do.

For example, in Gujia Village, if you want to cook and eat in the past, you have to do it yourself. The food for a family of seven often makes Qiao Lian's waist sore and back ache, and it is still with Yu Feique's help.

It's different now. It took half a day to clean the two big maids and six young maids in the courtyard, and the hundreds of catties of lotus root.

Under Qiao Lianlian's command, Second Brother Liu brought in a large stone mill and a stone pounder. After cleaning, he began to make lotus root noodles.

Cut off the roots of the washed lotus root joints, then cut them into moderate chunks, throw them into a stone mash, mash them into a sticky state, add water into the stone mill, and grind out a thick paste.

This is the first step.

The thick pulp is wrapped in a cloth bag, placed in clean water and scrubbed repeatedly until no white pulp comes out.

This is the second step.

The rinsed lotus root slurry is still until the starch and water are separated, poured off the clean water, and cleaned up the lotus root residue and bottom sediment. After repeated two or three times, the pure lotus root powder can be extracted, and it can be stored after drying.

So far, the lotus root powder has been extracted, but the amount of a few small cloth bags has kept the maids of Lianxin Hospital busy for half a month.

After that, Chen Shen's sudden attack made Qiao forget about these bags of lotus root starch.

A few days ago, Big Fatty yelled in the pond like he was in heat, and when Joe scolded him again and again, he remembered these bags of lotus root flour.

The gluttons that had settled down were picked out again, and she immediately asked Li Chunhua to prepare cooked sesame seeds, chopped cooked peanuts, hawthorn grains, and several kinds of cooked beans.

In Qiao Lianlian's memory, this kind of street snacks usually appeared near the school. Students who go to and from get out of class would often hold a cup of lotus seed porridge in the cold winter, while sipping, they walked towards the class at different speeds.

Dilute the dry and cracked lotus root powder with a small amount of water to form an opaque liquid, then wash it down with boiling water, and stir a few times quickly, the liquid will gradually become thick and transparent, and the resistance of stirring will gradually increase.

At this time, add cooked sesame seeds, crushed cooked peanuts, hawthorn grains, japonica rice pears, crushed red beans, etc., mix with a spoonful of sugar, stir together, every sip will have a luscious taste, and chew two more It's a mouthful of sweetness, which makes people linger and forget to return.

As soon as Qiao Lianlian was finished, he won unanimous praise from the children.

Yu Feige even asked to eat a bowl of lotus seed porridge every day.

Qiao repeatedly nodded in response and at the same time couldn't help laughing. Who would have thought that the food that children love to eat in the 21st century would still be loved by children in a different place and dynasty.

Yu Feique is a caring person. When he is satisfied with his meal, he still doesn't forget to bring two bowls for his family.

Qiao repeatedly agreed, and filled her with two large bowls, and asked someone to pack them in an insulated food box, and took her to the outer city with her.

"Mother, I'll be back later." The eldest daughter refused to let Qiao Lian leave the yard, "It's cold outside, let's stay indoors."

Qiao Lianlian nodded slightly, and was about to speak when suddenly there was a rush of screaming.

It's fat.

This big fat goose, which is quiet and quiet, only knows how to eat and drink every day, has been calling for several days in a row.

Could it be that there is something unsatisfactory?
Qiao Lian was curious, and took the people in the yard to the pond in Fuchu, just in time to see Fatty howling up to the sky like a convulsion.

"Ga~~~Ga~~~Ga~~~~"
