Seeing him like this, Jiang Fuhai said in a dark voice that only two people could hear: "Are you risking your life if you don't leave yet?"
Only then did he react, suppressing his fright, he got up and followed Jiang Fuhai out.
When he arrived at the door, Jiang Fuhai squinted his eyes and looked at the craftsman's back. He thought to himself, "Can you see someone like the master?"
If he hadn't been afraid of affecting his master's reputation, he would have prevented him from seeing the sun tomorrow.
He usually smiles in a pleasant way, but now he is smiling, but with a coldness.
After a while, the look in his eyes changed, and he smiled again, and went out to buy a stove for Chu Yu.
After they went out, Chu Yu got up and went to the kitchen. She wanted to see how Wang Dali was doing.
When he got to the kitchen, he found that Wang Dali had already cooked the mooncakes, so he picked them up to taste.
The taste was average, but she still wanted to eat fresh meat mooncakes.
In fact, the pastry of fresh meat mooncakes is not easy to make. The flour used to make the pastry needs low-gluten flour. Where can she find low-gluten flour at this time?
In fact, low-gluten flour is just cornmeal plus white flour. I’m a little unsure whether corn is available now. She hasn’t eaten much since she was born.
Then after asking, there was indeed some corn, and the little eunuch brought it to him in a short while.
The name of corn at this time was maize. Although it looked smaller than modern corn, it smelled more fragrant.
We also learned from their mouths that corn had already been produced in the late Ming Dynasty, and it had already been planted in many areas at this time.
Since it is not a precious thing, it is not often served on the table.
Chu Yu held the corn and already had more than a dozen ways to make it in his head. It was a huge loss to not eat such sweet corn because it was so common.
Then Chu Yu asked people to find some dried corn. Grinding corn flour was very troublesome, so he let them grind it first.
When I saw the corn in front of me, I was a little greedy, so I asked someone to peel off the corns, fry them with carrots and cucumbers, and eat them for dinner.
I was busy in the kitchen for a long time, and before I knew it, it was already dinner time, so I just took the food back.
Fourth Master arrived at the main courtyard one step ahead of her.
When Chu Yu came in and saw him, she said, "I'm back just in time, there's something delicious today." He smiled, took the food box directly, and put the plates inside on the table.
The fourth master looked at her again and sat down, feeling a little disappointed.
Why didn't you just rush over to hug me? I wasn't in a good mood.
It can be seen that the habit is really terrible.
But Chu Yu didn't notice that this man had a cold face all day long. She really couldn't detect such a small emotion.
After the meal was laid out, they started serving soup to Fourth Master, and then another bowl.
He also muttered: "Drink soup before meals, it's beautiful and healthy." She stared at Fourth Master and asked him to try it. This is corn rib soup.
Seeing her stupid look, Fourth Master felt that being angry was something he couldn't get along with.
Then he took a sip of the soup and it tasted really good, so he nodded.
Chu Yu kept asking him to eat more, but in the end he didn't eat too much, but she ate too much.
The fourth master looked at this and frowned: "I told you to eat less, but you just didn't listen. You must have endured it again."
"I've been exercising a lot recently." After saying that, he curled his lips.
Fourth Master was just about to continue teaching him a lesson, but she changed the subject.
"Master, am I fat?" She touched the flesh on her belly and felt that she was indeed a little too much.
The fourth master glanced at her chin, which was so sharp that it could poke a hole in the ice, frowned and said, "She's not fat."
"Really?" She looked at Fourth Master very doubtfully.
"Of course it's true." Extremely serious.
Chu Yu felt a little more comfortable, but inexplicably, she thought of what one of her female leaders said in her previous life.
She said that in this world, anything you do in excess will be rewarded, but eating in excess is of no use.
But, the food here is really delicious. Since arriving here, her appetite has become bigger and bigger day by day.
...
Early the next morning, Chu Yu had just finished washing up and was still leaning on the soft pillow on the couch a little weakly. The fourth master had been really obsessed with making people recently and couldn't help himself, which made her feel weak every day.
It saves me a lot of exercise, because the daily amount of exercise is enough.
After a while, Jiang Fuhai brought the stove over with a smile. Chu Yu immediately became energetic.
When I went out and took a look, I found that it was much better than the stove she drew.
Then he sent it to Wang Dali and slowly went to the kitchen.
The key point of Su's mooncakes is the puff pastry. It's actually easier to make some meat filling, just mince the pork.
Just mix salt, sesame seeds, honey, sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger and minced garlic and put them together.
Then the key point came. Chu Yu asked Wang Dali to knead the dough with lard. The lard became crispy and some cornmeal came out. He kneaded two doughs, one mixed with corn flour and the other with normal flour.
After the noodles woke up, they started to wrap them. Wang Dali was better at wrapping things than Chu Yu, so he wrapped them every moment. Chu Yu asked him to brush a layer of egg wash on it, stick some sesame seeds on it, and then put it in the oven to start.
bake.
What was burning under the oven was fine fruit charcoal. Chu Yu set the time and asked Wang Dali to take it out after about half an hour.
When the mooncakes came out, Chu Yu was still a little nervous. After all, she had never made this before.
Wang Dali was also a little nervous. He took the plate without opening his eyes, held his breath and put it on the table.
It looks pretty good at the moment, because it's brushed with eggs, looks golden, and smells delicious.
Chu Yu immediately took one and quickly put it down when she felt it was hot. She waited a moment before picking it up and taking a bite.
The taste is a little different from what it was in my previous life, and the pastry is not as delicious as before, but it is still edible.
"You should have a try too." She said to Wang Dali, who was waiting impatiently beside her.
He hurriedly agreed twice, reached for a piece, broke it open, smelled it, and then put it into his mouth.
Then his eyes widened and he nodded vigorously, thinking that mooncakes can also be made with meat fillings, and they taste so delicious.
Although this thing was made by Wang Dali himself, he still couldn't believe it. Making mooncakes these days has simply subverted his cognition.
Seeing that he could still accept it, Chu Yu said, "You all should try it too."
Zaoer, Xinger and Xiao Anzi all came over together.
Surprisingly, everyone thought it was good. Chu Yu was a little surprised that they were so accepting of the fresh meat mooncakes?
In fact, people in the Qing Dynasty were willing to eat meat and used less sweets. The mooncakes before were only used for sacrifices, and few people ate them.
Chu Yu made a mistake.
Although everyone praised the mooncakes for making them like this, Chu Yu was still a little dissatisfied, and then guided Wang Dali to make them again.
After a while, a batch of mooncakes came out. When I tasted it again, I found it was not as delicious as the last one. Then I made it again.
Finally, when the slaves had dinner, there were a lot of mooncakes on the table.
In the evening, when I had dinner with Fourth Master, the mooncakes were served on the table. Fourth Master tasted them and liked them quite a lot.
Early the next morning, Chu Yu asked the fourth master to bring some mooncakes to the palace to give them to Emperor Kangxi and Concubine De to taste first.
