The soft and sweet puffs really attracted everyone's attention.
The ladies have enjoyed various luxurious or complicated Chinese desserts.
However, they have never tasted this kind of Western food.
Driven by curiosity, they couldn't help exchanging glances with their friends at the same table, and then everyone got on cautiously.
Considering the eating habits of ladies, the puffs are made very small, basically one for two mouthfuls.
In fact, you can make it one bite at a time, but in that case, it is difficult to control the heat of the puff pastry, and the cream is not squeezed enough, which also affects the taste and texture.
So, the final product is two for one.
Because it involves desserts, Xiao Nianzhi had already ordered a batch of knives and forks before opening.
It's made of silver and has the right size, just right for eating desserts.
At this time, the ladies of the action group have already taken action.
For example, Yu Moyue, who had tasted Xiao Nianzhi's desserts before, had already touched the knife and fork. Someone had given instructions on how to use this thing from the beginning, and a servant demonstrated how to use it.
The ladies are just ancients, not fools, so everyone can learn it and use it now.
Yu Moyue motioned to the maid to bring over a puff, and then cut it in half with a knife.
The golden pastry was cut open, revealing the milky yellow cream inside. The sweet fragrance and frankincense originally wrapped in the pastry also floated out at this time.
Yu Moyue shrugged her delicate and lovely nose and took a gentle breath. After feeling the taste, she secretly rejoiced: It's sweet, she likes it!
She started eating generously and led her sister Yu Moyao. Because she was related to them by clan, Sun Shujing, who was sharing the table with them, also started cutting it carefully.
When thinking about the reception, Xiao Nianzhi paid a little more attention to her. Sun Shujing pursed her lips in embarrassment, and there was a bit of delicate pink on the tips of her ears.
At this time, the other two sisters on the table were squinting their eyes to enjoy the food, but they missed the girl's bright and scorching spring scenery like the peach blossoms in bloom.
When you take a bite of the puff, the first thing you feel is the sincere, sweet and soft cream.
It really melts in the mouth, and I always feel that before I feel it carefully, most of it has already melted between my lips and teeth, and together with the body fluids in my mouth, it has slipped through my throat and entered my stomach.
However, the light and soft fragrance has left its own fragrance along the way, proving that it has been here before and its presence is particularly strong.
The remaining cream and the bright yellow meringue were rolled up by the lips and tongue, touched by the lips and teeth, and then slowly melted.
The aroma of wheat and sweetness are intertwined, mixed with the frankincense in the cream, giving people a magical gourmet experience.
It was as if someone really picked off the cloud and put it gently into his mouth. He didn't dare to bite hard, but only dared to touch it lightly, and then carefully tested it and swallowed it into his belly.
It is soft and tender, and when it passes by, there will be traces of fragrance left by the other person when he walks.
Once you take a whiff, you can't help but want to know where it comes from.
Yu Moyue only ate half a piece of puff before she narrowed her eyes and wanted to stamp her feet to express her pleasure.
delicious!!!
Yu Moyue's big, watery eyes burst out with a scorching light.
She looked at her sister and found that Yu Moyao had finished the entire puff.
Yu Moyue:?
No, I only ate half of it!
Turning around to look at Sun Jingshu, he found that the quiet and delicate little girl had also killed one.
Yu Moyue:??
So, am I myself the waste material?
Yu Moyue refused to admit defeat and would kill the other half no matter what, to prove that she was not a loser.
at this time……
The sweet water chestnut soup is here.
The operation of sweet water chestnut soup is really very simple. It is not an exaggeration to say that you can do it with hands.
After cleaning the water chestnuts, cut them into bite-sized pieces, then add water and rock sugar, and simmer over low heat for about the time of an incense stick.
After taking it out of the pan, let it dry for a while and then pour a spoonful of osmanthus sauce.
The water chestnut itself has its own refreshing flavor, coupled with the light sweet scent of osmanthus, this bowl of sugar water is already tempting and satisfying enough!
There are few noble ladies in Beijing who have eaten water chestnuts. Looking at the pure white snow-like pieces in the bowl, they are a little overwhelmed.
Ah, is this food?
They were not sure, but a waiter had already begun to introduce: "This dish is sweet water chestnut soup, and water chestnuts are produced in..."
There are both men and women working in the sweet shop, and the one I’m introducing here is a female one.
Yan Xingxuan and Grandpa Feng carefully selected women with good conduct and clean family backgrounds.
Some were palace maids who left the palace when they reached their age, some were just women from ordinary families, and some were widowed women with children.
Xiao Nianzhi's principle is that as long as she has good character, a clean family background, and no criminal record, no matter what her status is, if she is honest and willing to work and is willing to obey the assignment, then she can be provided with a guaranteed job regardless of gender.
In the future, most of the visitors to the candy shop will still be ladies, so the arrangements for the female waiters are very important.
In this way, whether they are guests or employees, they will feel comfortable.
"The taste of water chestnut is crisp, tender and sweet. After being made into dessert, it still tastes good. When paired with rock sugar, its effect will be stimulated to the greatest extent. It can clear away heat and appetite, replenish qi and promote fluid production. It is very nutritious when eaten in moderation."
…
As the guys explained, everyone finally understood what the pure white snow-like pieces in the bowl were.
Everyone, look at me and I look at you. The bold ones are already trying.
The timid one also moved the spoon.
Not to mention anything else, after pouring a spoonful of osmanthus sauce, the smell is clear and sweet, which is very attractive.
They really want to endure it.
However, the rising heat, carrying the sweet fragrance of horse hooves and sweet-scented osmanthus, hit their faces directly.
Just ask, who can withstand this?
After actually eating it, the ladies discovered that after the water chestnuts were cooked, they still retained a bit of crispy texture.
Take a bite, you will find it is crispy and tender with a slight sweetness, and together with the soup, it has a smooth and tender texture.
After taking a bite, Yu Moyue couldn't help but widen her eyes: "Well, I like this taste!"
She really likes this crunchy and sweet texture!
It is said that horseshoe is produced on the southeast coast, and is most popular in the Ruzhou area.
Jiangnan is a little far away from there, so I didn't have the chance to eat it before.
This made Yu Moyue feel a little regretful, and whispered to the eldest sister: "You said that the former merchants were so unsatisfactory that they didn't know about such a good thing and wanted to bring it to us."
In response to this, Yu Moyao shook his head slightly: "Maybe it's not that I don't want to take it with me, but it's probably not easy to preserve. I heard that Ruzhou sent two carts of soil to His Highness the King of Wei. What's the matter?
Soil? I guess it’s used to preserve this thing. Didn’t the guy just say that this thing needs to be buried in the soil to keep it fresh?”
