Imperial Chef Rookie - Chapter 16

After a while, she gradually calmed down and stood looking at me vigorously.

“Song Yiran, you will not be allowed to do it without my permission…”

Speaking of which, the courage of her little daughter’s family took the upper hand again, her face was ashamed, and she was speechless.

“Princess, what’s not allowed? I think you enjoyed it just now, and your mouth is so soft~” I deliberately teased her, seeing how she was talking.

“You… you give me out now.” She saw me more and more outrageous, and hurried me out in a panic.

“Yes, that princess, we will…” I just said a few words, and before being able to show an evil smile to her, I was locked out.

Hahahaha, it was so fun to play with the princess. It seems that the time for me to turn is up~ and then I whistled and happily bounced back to my own courtyard.

On the day of the state banquet, which coincided with the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, the envoys of Xiye Kingdom brought the princess to come and kiss on time, together with the envoys of other countries who had come to see him.

When I arranged to manage everything, the owner of the dining room began to get busy in an orderly manner.

I also started to prepare the dishes I learned from the master these days.

The big crabs in the golden autumn season are of course the indispensable protagonists. Two of the innovative crab-based dishes are: crab inlaid orange and hibiscus crab mash.

I cut the top of the fresh orange and dig out three quarters of orange flakes. I put the minced pork belly, water chestnuts, crab meat, ginger, egg liquid, an appropriate amount of liquor, salt, pepper, and evenly into the fresh orange. , Cover the orange slice that was cut off, put it in the tray, let it steam for a while for a long time. Taking advantage of the gap, I started to make this hibiscus crab velvet.

Steam the crab and dig out the minced meat. Add the appropriate amount of egg whites, green onions, pepper, and salt into a small amount of wine and mix well. Put it into the oil pan and slowly shovel the egg on the medium heat. The juice is solid but not hard. After all the egg juice has condensed, come out of the pan and decorate the two dishes into the plate. The teacher taught you, crab inlaid with orange and hibiscus and crab velvet, you are done~

The other dishes are almost ready, only one dessert left.

Hearing the master said that there is a kind of dessert raw material that came from a foreign country, it is very precious, almost only in this palace, it is called chocolate.

This thing has astringency in bitterness and sweetness in astringency. Gentiles use it as tea to drink, but if it is made into a dessert, the taste will be wonderful.

The master said that he had never tried it before, so today I want to try it, but it can only succeed, not fail. So I ordered some chocolates from the royal dining room and prepared to show my skills.

I followed the method taught by the master, put it in a bowl, heat it to melt in water, and then pour the melted chocolate into a mold that I can make in half. Then close the ball and make a turn. This is to spread the chocolate evenly on the surface. Then put the ball in the ice cellar in the palace and refrigerate it for about a column of incense.

Then I carefully broke apart the mold shell and took out the complete and frozen chocolate **** inside.

To make it a lantern, I first took out a smooth ceramic bowl and rinsed the bottom of the bowl with hot water. When you feel that the bottom of the bowl is hot, put the chocolate ball up and melt its bottom enough to stand in the dish. Then prepared some snacks to be put in the goal and covered the ball. Finally, a lychee in the south and grapes from the tribute in the west are decorated around.

I have prepared some rose dew. Here, this dessert is half done and it seems to be a success. Just waited a while for this new dessert that was amazing to everyone present.

The state banquet was held at the Changxin Palace. Princess Xiye and the envoys of various countries and all the ministers gathered together to sit down according to the ceremony. They were arranged in two rows on each side, from the front to the end of the hall. There are many people, about three or four hundred people.

The dining environment is quaint and elegant, accompanied by silk bamboo rituals, cheerful singing, and there are special dancers on the large terrace outside the hall; clothes and jewelry, decoration and furnishings, and music and dance are all available.

Twenty court ladies entered the hall neatly and placed the finest blue and white fine porcelain trumpet cups and new mahogany chopsticks on the low table in front of everyone, while the empresses and princesses used a full set of pastel longevity. Tableware, with silver cup jade ivory chopsticks, rich and gorgeous.

Afterwards, the restaurant supervisor waiting outside the hall brought in the served maid fish and ordered various dishes and snacks in order (pre-dinner snacks, tea, cold dishes, appetizers, stir-fried dishes, meals, beets, after-dinner snacks and fruits) Placed one by one on a long row of table stands in the middle of the hall. Two other eunuchs sang the name of the dish with a clear voice:

Dozens of dishes were divided into dozens of fine porcelain small pots and placed on the long tables on both sides of the hall.

“Return to the emperor, all the dishes are ready, and the minions have a new dessert to serve.” The food supervisor told me, and I returned the words to the emperor.

Immediately, I presented the decorated chocolate ball, and made some engravings on the ball, which looked very delicate.

Everyone’s eyes were immediately attracted by the chocolate ball in my hand. I brought it to the emperor, took the pre-heated rosette and poured it on the ball. As the chocolate bloomed like petals, the middle melted. The desserts appeared in front of everyone like magic, and there was a sound of exclamation in the hall.

The envoys lamented Daqi’s vast land and resources, and even the dishes were unprecedented to them. Today, they really opened their eyes and more surrendered to me.

The words of these envoys made the emperor Longyan happy, and my mission was completed successfully. Then, at the command of the emperor, I slowly retreated to the side.

The cold and hot dishes in front of you are all made of fine materials, and the flavors of mountains and seas are all in it. The single cooking method includes various methods such as grilling, deep-frying, stir-frying, simmering, roasting, steaming, stewing, radon, crisp, braising, bursting, braising, wire drawing, etc.! I saw that some of the dishes are white like snow, some are red like fire, some are yellow like gold, and some are like Bitan… The colors are colorful, all exuding enticing fragrance!

Under such circumstances, in the face of such a beautiful and fragrant delicacies, how can everyone not move with their index fingers?

After a while, the group officials started chatting, eating, drinking, drinking, drinking, chatting, happy speech, and joy. Laughter swelled throughout the palace, and the atmosphere in the hall was very happy and harmonious.

At the end of the banquet, the table in the hall was swept away like a lingering cloud, and everyone seemed very satisfied. Almost at the end of the feast, I ordered the court ladies to offer farewell tea: Jasmine!

At this point, the entire state banquet was considered to be a perfect end. While everyone was drinking tea, I quietly walked out of the side entrance of the Changxin Hall and walked to a garden.

In the autumn season, the scenery in the circle caught my eyes. In the blink of an eye, the leaves all turned into golden yellow, and the sunlight grievously shined from the cracks. At this moment, not only the yellow leaves, but also the red leaves like the fire of the maple leaves, and the green leaves of the evergreen, interspersed with it. This boring and deep palace adds a lot of colors, which makes people very happy.

I walked slowly in this garden all by myself, originally was aimlessly enjoying the scenery. But I heard that Wei Qi had also come. He hadn’t seen anyone in the temple for a long time. Will he be in this garden?

I thought while looking around to see if he had come to this garden. I happened to be seeing someone between the rockery there. I was too far away to see who it was. At first I thought which maid was playing there, but I didn’t see the person until I got closer.

Isn’t this person Su Yueran?

What is she doing here alone, eh? It seems that she still talks to…
