After finishing all the matters, Jintong immediately returned to his foodie nature. It is a cold winter in Beijing. How happy he would be if he could have a cup of fragrant and nutritious "Buddha Jumps Over the Wall".
It's a pity that transportation in ancient times was quite backward, and some ingredients had to be transported from coastal areas, which was quite troublesome. It took more than a year to finally get the materials needed for the Buddha to jump over the wall, and they were basically ready. Jintong immediately gave orders
Qiaolu Cuijuejinye, who is good at cooking, hurry up and start cooking.
Among the three, Jin Ye is the youngest, but her cooking skills are quite good. However, she is selfish and focuses on interests, and she is not as loyal as the plain white, green, and purple ones. Besides, Jin Ye also has an older brother in Jinzhu.
When I work as an errand in the government, I am lazy and unable to stand up to the wall.
Just in case, Jintong secretly told Qiaolu that the final recipe of "Buddha Jumps Over the Wall" should not be leaked to others. Because of the dish "Buddha Jumps Over the Wall", Jintong plans to launch it in Xiangrui Restaurant as a New Year's dish.
Naturally, cooking methods must be kept secret.
So naturally, Qiaolu is the main one, with Cuijue as the main assistant. Jinye has exquisite knife skills and high cooking skills. She originally wanted to show off her performance, but unexpectedly, Qiaolu only arranged for her to help with some ingredients. The ingredients used in this dish
Jinye didn't know much about the ingredients, cooking methods, etc., and he wasn't afraid of her leaking the secret. Coupled with Qiaolu's direct character, if you put it in modern times, she would be a proper female man and would not beat around the bush. She was clearly taking precautions against Jinye, and Jinye
How could Ye not notice it?
Buddha Jumps Over the Wall uses eighteen kinds of main ingredients and more than ten kinds of auxiliary ingredients. The raw materials include chicken and duck, pork belly, hoof tips, tendons, ham, chicken and duck gizzards; shark fin, sea cucumber, abalone, scallops, and fish belly;
A total of more than 30 raw materials and accessories such as pigeon eggs, shiitake mushrooms, bamboo shoot tips, and razor clams are processed and prepared separately. Among them, shark fins, sea cucumbers, abalone and other ingredients need to be soaked, and some ingredients such as chicken and duck are used to make broth.
As a scammer, Jintong always only provides raw materials and approximate cooking methods. How general is this cooking method?
Jintong's original words are as follows: "It seems that those sea cucumbers and other things need to be soaked in soup stock first, and chicken and duck tendons are used to boil the soup stock, and then they seem to be stewed in a big pot. Plus I specially asked Zhao Laosan
Put the prepared rice wine in and continue to simmer. Alas, I don’t know if Zhao Laosan’s rice wine is authentic or not. Anyway, you can try it casually first. We will explore in practice and gain experience through exploration, and we will always succeed."
Qiaolu looked confused but said to Jintong with great confidence: "Madam, don't worry, I will definitely make this 'Buddha Jumps over the Wall' for you."
The black-hearted boss Jintong didn't blush, didn't pant, and didn't change his expression. He patted Qiaolu's shoulder calmly: "Come on, I'm very optimistic about you!"
Qiaolu immediately picked up Jintong's waistband with excitement and ran to the warehouse to get the expensive ingredients she needed.
Although Qiao Lu had a hunch that she would have to go through a lot of difficulties to successfully make this dish, the difficulties were still a few more than she imagined. The first time she made it, she drank wine too early, and
The quantity was not well controlled, the wine taste was too strong and overshadowed the deliciousness of the soup. Although it was edible, it could only be regarded as a defective dish.
Starting from the second time, although it became more and more successful, Qiao Lu pursued perfection, never stopped pursuing the ultimate food, and constantly adjusted the proportion of main ingredients and auxiliary ingredients. As a result, the loss of ingredients was quite serious.
Although most of the defective dishes that Qiaolu thought were not perfect were eventually fed to the gang of animals in the torture room ~ Oh, strong young man, but such a large amount of food is consumed, some people can't stand it. For example, Qiaolu and Qiaolu have long been
Gold leaf that cannot be dealt with.
Among the maids, Jin Ye's appearance is not as outstanding as that of Goose Yellow, but her talent is outstanding. She is good at cooking and good at abacus. Although her needlework is not as good as Su Bai's, it is still good.
She had already made her own plans. Ning Zi was already twenty, and Jin Tong had already prepared the dowry for her. Since she was in conflict with the husband's father this year, everything was not suitable, so she postponed the wedding to the middle of next year, so that there would be no room for the next one.
The position of a first-class maid.
Jin Ye didn't dare to expect this position. She thought that Jin Tong would most likely promote Yan Hong, and what she was determined to get was Yan Hong's position as a second-class maid.
Jintong was always generous to them. Although the first-class maid only had eight taels of silver per month, one look at Danzhu revealed that she had saved a full thousand taels of silver as a wedding gift. The second-class maid had five taels per month.
Two silver dollars, but you can get a lot of oil and water every day, which is better than those of them working as kitchen cleaners.
In the past few months, Jinye has been working hard to express herself. Jintong also likes the pastries and snacks she makes. Now she wants to help "Xiangruilou" develop new dishes and show off, but Qiaolu only asks her to help soak her hair.
Sea cucumbers, the core cooking ingredients, wouldn't let her get close to them, and Jin Ye was already dissatisfied.
She thought to herself that it was probably the Gou Huang incident that had affected her, so even when Gou Huang was sent to the embroidery room outside, she did not go to say goodbye. However, she thought that this action was enough to express her stance, but she did not know that this would make her even more embarrassed.
Jintong was disgusted, but Qiaolu was a person who valued friendship, so he naturally looked down on people like Jin Ye who could act according to the changing circumstances.
Jin Ye naturally didn't feel that she had done anything wrong. She just felt that Qiaolu didn't like her and was afraid that her cooking skills would surpass hers in the future, so she deliberately suppressed her.
As the saying goes, only three things come true. When Qiaolu had already started cooking for the fourth time, Jinye finally couldn't help but jumped out and asked Qiaolu to help with the cooking, but Qiaolu still refused. Jintong has always behaved himself.
It was so strict that Jin Ye did not dare to argue with Qiao Lu, so he had to start soaking sea cucumber and abalone with tears in his eyes and depression.
After Jintong learned about this, he promoted Jinye to the rank of second-class maid without hesitation. Qiaolu's violent temper made her face flush red, so she secretly took a break and immediately went to Jintong to ask.
"Madam, how come you, such a smart person, would ask Jin Ye to be a second-class maid?"
Jintong drank her scented tea leisurely and asked, "Is there anything wrong with carrying gold leaves to be a second-class maid?"
Qiao Lu had a look of disgust on her face: "Madam, that girl's heart is boundless. She plans all the good things in the world without leakage. She is selfish and has a cold nature."
Jintong asked: "You people who know how to cook, keep the fire going every day, and your temper is as hot as the fire, right?"
"Madam, why do you still have the energy to joke with me? Do you dislike me?"
Jintong laughed loudly: "You little fool, even dung water can be used to fertilize. Everything is useful. It would be a waste to discard it for no reason."
Qiaolu couldn't turn his head around, so he asked blankly: "In Madam's mind, gold leaves are excrement and excrement water? Then why would Madam put a person full of excrement water next to her? It doesn't make me sick.
Should I be panicking?"
This magical brain circuit directly made Jintong feel that she could never face Jin Ye again. She sighed: "Qiaolu, you can't always look at a person's shortcomings, you have to look at her advantages. To be fair,
Putting aside Jin Ye's personality, how do you think her cooking skills and her attitude and speed in doing things compare to others?"
Qiaolu was a little reluctant to admit it, but she still confessed: "Not to mention other things, Jinye's knife skills are much more refined than those of slaves, and she usually does things quickly, but she never helps others."
“It’s enough to be able to get things done faster than others and do your job better than others.”
"My lady told me not to let Jin Ye know the recipe and proportions of the dishes when I was making Buddha Jumping Over the Wall. I thought my lady wouldn't reuse Jin Ye."
"The dish Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is prepared for Xiangrui Lou. Since you know that Jin Ye values profit, you should know why I don't let her know the recipe." Looking at Qiaolu's stupid look, Jintong said it right.
It is even clearer: "Using people to defend against people will not lead to conflicts. Not using people to defend against people is the greatest waste."
Qiao Lu finally realized: "Although it smells bad when fertilizing with manure water, flowers, plants and trees grow quickly and well, so you can't use it to fertilize just because it smells bad."
Jintong: "!!!???" Why did she use feces and water as an analogy?
