Xiao Nianzhi thought the cook wanted to eat it and smiled: "It's almost ready. My sister-in-law will help me taste it later."
The cook waved her hand sheepishly: "No, no need."
She is greedy for this dish, but she is even more greedy for the craftsmanship.
It's not that I covet it, it's just a cook's instinctive reaction.
The tofu and cabbage stew came out of the pot quickly. Xiao Nianzhi left a bowl for the cook and sister-in-law, and left the rest in the casserole to take away while it was hot.
The cook wanted to help, but Xiao Nianzhi was a step too late and turned around to serve the rice.
At the same time, a reminder from Delicious Kitchen also popped up.
[The experience value of Delicious Kitchen is 6, and 24 experience points are needed to upgrade.]
Aunt Yu waited for a while, feeling a little sleepy because it was time for her nap.
As soon as I stood up to ask about the progress of lunch, the unique aroma of food rushed in.
Xiao Nianzhi came in right after the scent, and Aunt Yu knew it as soon as she smelled the smell in the air...
This dish is delicious!
It tastes like cabbage and tofu.
What else?
It's a little spicy, but Aunt Yu can eat spicy food. Xiao Nianzhi asked about this before.
When Aunt Yu calmly twitched her nose and smelled the aroma in the air, Xiao Nianzhi had already come in, placed the casserole on the temporary small dining table, and then gently opened the lid.
The strong aroma inspired by the combination of tofu and cabbage rises together with the curls of white smoke.
The concentration of fragrance in the air reached its maximum in an instant, and Aunt Yu swallowed slightly.
My eyes have unconsciously fallen on the vegetables in the casserole, which are cabbage and tofu, but...
The surface of the tofu looks burnt yellow, as if it has been oiled?
Most of the greasy food tasted very fragrant, and Aunt Yu swallowed slightly.
Xiao Nianzhi quickly took the rice from the cook, and then greeted Aunt Yu with a smile: "Aunt, let's eat quickly."
Two people were sitting at the table in the small reception hall of the main house, one on the left and one on the right, each holding a bowl of rice, happily eating!
Aunt Yu first picked up a piece of tofu. She was curious about the oily tofu. After picking it up, she endured the strong aroma of the tofu and looked at it carefully.
It should be wrapped in eggs, fried in a pan until both sides are crispy, and then added to the pan with the cabbage, right?
After Aunt Yu made a rough judgment, she put the tofu into her mouth.
The mellow and rich flavor hits the entrance, and the fresh and delicious seasonings are all blended into the soup, and then slowly soaked into the tofu and cabbage, further sublimating the taste of these ingredients.
The fried tofu is soft and tender on the surface with a slight chewy texture, and the aroma of plants is wrapped inside. When you bite it lightly, the aromas on the outside and inside merge with each other after a fierce collision, bursting out with a stronger fragrance.
Son.
Aunt Yu originally wanted to chew it carefully and feel it, but the smell was too fragrant and she couldn't hold it back. By the time she realized it, the tofu had already been eaten.
The tofu was cut into equal triangles, not too big, and half of it was already bitten off in one bite.
Aunt Yu bit into the remaining half and carefully felt the amazing feeling this bite of tofu gave her.
After finishing the tofu, Aunt Yu picked up a piece of cabbage that was cooked until tender but not soft.
Take a bite of the cabbage that has soaked up the soup. It is tender and delicious, with endless aftertaste.
Aunt Yu felt that she didn't particularly like eating cabbage before.
But the cabbage in this dish made by Xiao Nianzhi makes people unable to refuse, and they even want to ask for more.
Aunt Yu quickly picked up cabbage, cabbage, cabbage...
After finishing most of the bowl of rice, Aunt Yu discovered that she had eaten a lot of cabbage, which she had not liked before.
Moreover, I was very satisfied with the meal!
She secretly observed Xiao Nianzhi and found that the little girl lowered her eyes slightly, eating elegantly and seriously, and then quietly looked away.
It would be nice if no one saw her losing her composure like this!
Didn't Xiao Nianzhi see it?
Of course I saw it.
However, sometimes, this is how people get along with each other. If people don’t want you to see it, just pretend you are blind.
At this time, she was thinking about another question, which was...
Seasoning.
Although she has a delicious kitchen and the seasonings are refreshed every day, she doesn't need to worry.
However, if there is an opportunity to promote delicious food in the future, what should we do with the seasoning?
Even if the delicious kitchen reaches level 99, there is an upper limit on the seasonings provided, and it is not unlimited.
So, you have to do it yourself.
Thinking didn't delay Xiao Nianzhi from cooking, so he finished the bowl of rice quickly.
Aunt Yu actually wanted to eat a second bowl, but after taking one look at herself and her puffy belly, she reluctantly gave up.
Xiao Nianzhi didn't eat much, so when her aunt put down her bowls and chopsticks, she also put them down.
The cook quickly put away the things, and Aunt Yu made simple arrangements for the two of them.
Aunt Yu must live in the main room of the main house. According to Xiao Nianzhi, for the sake of safety, Aunt Yu did not arrange her to live in the guest room, but let her sleep in the left side room of the main house.
Manager Hu and his servants quickly packed up, and Xiao Nianzhi could go back and take a nap.
Although this day is just over halfway, I have experienced a lot of things.
I was fishing leisurely in the morning, and started to escape in despair at noon.
At least for Xiao Nianzhi, it was a bit of a desolate escape!
The male protagonist of the original text...
Thinking of this person, Xiao Nianzhi muttered: "This piece of shit."
Xiao Nianzhi didn't feel sleepy, so he simply got up and sat at the table, starting to think about the seasoning.
There are only a few kinds of seasonings for improving freshness. If the requirements are not high, two of them may be enough.
As for pepper, this is due to the place of production. No species have been introduced for the time being. If there is an opportunity in the future, we can introduce species.
It's just that it's probably a bit difficult.
After all, those in Fanbang may not be willing to let go of chickens that can make money and lay eggs.
However, if he doesn’t want to, we have the means, right?
Forget pepper, freshness-enhancing things, and seasonings such as oil and chicken essence.
Whether it’s fuel consumption or chicken essence, one thing cannot be avoided...
Seafood.
Whether you are making oil-consuming main ingredients, raw oysters, or making chicken essence, shrimp skin, you need to go to the beach.
However, the capital is far away from the sea.
Chicken essence is easy to make, but if you don’t add dried shrimps to enhance the freshness, it will always taste bad.
Xiao Nianzhi thought about it for a whole afternoon, and decided to explore Aunt Yu's words later to see if there was any way she could get some back.
Aunt Yu didn't let Xiao Nianzhi cook for dinner, but her own cook cooked whatever she wanted.
I just ate the tofu and cabbage stew for lunch, and then the food cooked by the cook...
Hey, there is no harm without comparison.
Aunt Yu is not very happy.
It is unknown what the situation is at the Imperial College. Xiao Siye and the others are probably very busy and cannot spare the time to inform them.
Aunt Yu was worried and asked Manager Hu to arrange for someone to go over and inquire about the situation.
The distance is not far. Do you think the other party will be back before you go to bed?
