Imperial Chef Rookie - Chapter 9
It is said that I have a leisurely time in this palace. Although the name of the chef is hanging on the surface, the work that can be done is less than one-third of them. Usually only responsible for the princess’s three meals a day, occasionally make one or two medicinal meals.
It’s just that where I live, the distance from the princess’s Yihua Palace really hurts me. At first, the princess knew my identity and wanted me to live there.
But I was a “man” in the eyes of others, and it was really inconvenient to live in the princess as soon as I entered the palace. In order to avoid gossip in this palace, she asked me to live temporarily in a far away residence.
Later, it took a long time. I used to send food in and out of the princess’s Yihua Palace, and the ladies gradually became familiar with me. Only when I was a “clean” **** did I stop paying attention to me.
The princess took advantage of this opportunity and reasonably arranged her to a private courtyard in her palace, so I was just a petty **** cook in the eyes of others.
From then on, I began to live under the same roof with the princess. It can also be said that all my every move is under her eyelids.
“You are the eunuchs, and your family is eunuchs.” I packed up in the other courtyard arranged for me by the princess.
I am very dissatisfied with the rumours outside. The big girl in Huanghua, who is clear and innocent, is not like the big girl, but also the young man who is the wind of the Yushu, and it is alive that they have been passed by them as eunuchs. I will not come.
“Is it easy for me, I have to suffer this in order to cook for the princess…” I muttered as I packed my things.
I didn’t notice at all. The princess who didn’t know when she came in already stood behind me.
Last time, the little house girl Kite, who accompanied her out of the palace, coughed a little and reminded me that the princess was here.
“I don’t know when the princess arrived, so I didn’t inform me. I’m so good to meet you.” I glared at the kite while smiling flatteringly, and complained about why she reminded me earlier. Too.
I have been in the palace for a long time, and these days I have long been acquainted with the little ladies, and everyone will often chat and joke.
Kite is the princess’s confidant, so she usually serves the princess herself.
Kite gave me a helpless expression, and at first glance knew what it meant to be a princess.
“Song Yiran, you are whispering something, are you talking about my bad things? It seems that I have accumulated a lot of resentment, let me tell you how to listen.”
It was the same way that the skin smiled and the meat didn’t smile. She obviously heard what I said, and she deliberately set my words.
How could I win the trick? Immediately began to quibble: “When I return to the princess, how dare you dare to say bad things about you, but this outside rumor spreads that I am the celebrity in front of you… The **** little cook. I feel very wronged. Yeah.”
After listening to my words, the princess couldn’t help smiling, the smile was still intoxicating.
“Isn’t that okay? Isn’t it a lot easier for you to live here. Okay, in order to make up for your grievances and to thank you for your life-saving grace, how about I take you to visit the imperial garden in this palace?”
“Okay~” I heard stars appearing in the eyes of “Yu Garden”, it must be very beautiful, and I went with the princess. This beautiful beauty is really great~
I immediately put down what was in my hand, and I came to the Royal Garden with the princess.
This imperial garden has strange flowers and weeds, pavilions and pavilions, rugged mountain stones, curving and winding trees in a circle of peculiar trees, small gazebos for people to rest in, various statues with strange shapes and strange shapes, and rockery with strange shapes and rocks.
Although it is summer, the garden is still full of flowers. Lots of lotus flowers, gorgeous peonies, elegant jasmine in the lotus pond… there are more than ten kinds of names, and there are more than the name, which makes people dazzled and dazzled.
I was walking in this imperial garden, and asked her casually and casually:
“Princess, did you take me into this palace, just for cooking?”
“Neither is it, probably, because you saved me, and I happened to see you very pleasingly, so I want you to stay with me. I wonder if this answer, are you satisfied?”
She turned her head and smiled at me, her smile more charming than before. After answering, she kept silent and walked slowly forward.
I stood staring blankly at her back. There are thousands of cooks in this world. Why did she choose me? Is this the fate of the legend?
“I see that I am pleasing to the eye, do you want me to be with me?” I felt a touch of emotion to this person in front of me.
Immediately, he eased in place, then followed.
When I was a little tired after walking, I sat with her in a pavilion and rested while chatting while enjoying the view of the imperial garden. Suddenly, my eyes flashed and said to her very excitedly:
“Princess, I’ll make lily white fungus lotus soup for you at noon, OK? There are also colorful flower cakes. This is not to disappoint this great beauty ~ It is interesting to eat after enjoying the beauty.”
“Okay, colorful flower cakes? I haven’t heard of them yet. I want to see how you make them?”
There is a special kitchen prepared for the emperor’s feast in the Royal Garden. She ordered someone to send me the other ingredients I needed from the royal dining room. The other flowers I requested were all freshly picked and cleaned by me. Everything is ready. .
“Princess, then I started~”
I smiled confidently at her, and I was a little bit emboldened in cooking here.
The first thing I did was lily white fungus lotus seed soup.
I put aside the white fungus that had been soaked in warm water and sent to the restaurant.
Then add water to the pot and bring it to a boil, add a little rock sugar, and cook the lotus seeds removed from the lotus heart.
After the lotus seeds are cooked for half a lifetime, continue to put the white fungus into it and cook until boiling. Then add freshly picked lilies, wolfberries, and simmer slowly.
While the white fungus soup was slowly cooking, I set about making colorful flower cakes.
Take out all kinds of petals to make juice, add water, and puff pastry to make pastry.
In order to dye the cake skin with colorful colors, it makes people look more appetite.
Then wrap it with fillings made from flowers such as roses and jasmine.
Pour in oil and slowly fry them evenly until the shell is crispy and distinct.
The finished product of the colorful flower cake is bright and colorful, like a rainbow of colors.
Coupled with a slightly golden meringue, it is very crispy and delicious, sweet but not greasy, and very tempting.
After the white fungus soup was cooked crystal clear, thick and thick, I put some longan in it again.
After a few minutes, turn off the heat and pour it into the cup, embellishing a few pieces of mint, so that the whole white fungus soup suddenly has a different sense of freshness.
Then I put them on a tray and carefully brought them to the princess, and told her to drink slowly and be careful.
She took a bite of the flower cake and looked very satisfied.
After that, one bite after another, there was no way to stop, a look of happiness and satisfaction, coupled with the fragrance of flower cakes in the air, I could not help but see the saliva.
“Well, you just cook pretty well. The colorful flower cakes are quite novel and delicious. I am very satisfied. Say, if you have anything you want, I can consider giving it to you.”
She looked like a person when she was eating, a pair of big blinking eyes looked at me, and there was a little bit of debris left by eating flower cakes in her mouth, like a kid stealing.
I couldn’t help but get close to her and gently wipe the crumbs around her mouth with a veil.
The movement was so natural that she didn’t get away from the reaction in the future. The ambiguous breath spread in the air. The distance between us at this moment is close enough to see each other’s faces. Time seems to stop at this moment, and we can only hear each other’s heartbeat quietly.
At the moment she blushed, but I leaned boldly and said to her in front of her ear:
“Look at how you eat it, your mouth is stained. I wish I could think about it. I will tell you in a few days. Okay?”
After I finished speaking, I slowly backed away, and she seemed to suddenly realize that the action was so tempting. She could not help pretending to calm down and started to pick up the white fungus soup in front of her and pretend to drink, as if nothing had happened just now. of.
“Cough, it seems that your white fungus soup is also good, it is clear of heat. Well, the weather is not early, I will go back first! Come back soon after you have gone shopping, Kite, let’s go.”
After talking, she didn’t look at me. She stood up and left in a hurry. I just thought that the movement was even more ambiguous, but I couldn’t control myself at all.
Since the last time she lay in bed with her, she behaved in a panic.
For the rest of the time, she has always been a very dignified person in my impression.
“But what’s wrong with this today? How can it run so fast? It’s not like her usual style. Wait, she called me to act…”
After some time, it was the annual Qiqiao Festival.
There is a cloud in the poem: “Lanshan stars are decorated with pearl lights, Qixi Gong’e is busy.”
Every year on the seventh day of July, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet at the Magpie Bridge. In the palace, you will sacrifice the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, salute the incense, and hold a begging activity.
On this day, the emperor set up a family banquet in the imperial garden, invited the empress to go with all the princesses, and ordered the imperial dining room to make some new dishes this year.
This can hardly damage the chefs in the imperial dining room. Usually the chicken, duck and fish meat in the palace, and the seafood and seafood, they are all tired of eating. How can this be good.
A group of men cast their eyes on me for help. I really couldn’t see how they looked so desperate that they couldn’t help but take this initiative.
“How about we make some homemade dishes and add some folk dishes? Shanzhen seafood tastes tired, and needs other to adjust the taste. I will do it, you can help me.”
So the chefs in the imperial dining room thanked me very much, and almost didn’t hold my thigh.
They often watched me cook and knew my strength. Although it was semi-compulsive, since I offered to help them, they naturally moved their noses to tears.
I signaled to them that it wasn’t time to move, cooking was the right thing, and the whole dining room started to get busy.
I asked them about the tastes of the empress dowager and the ladies and princesses in the ordinary palace. According to the taste of each person, according to the number of heads, I made some simple and lovable folk dishes.
The first is three appetizers: curry-flavored potatoes mixed with other vegetables for cold salad, toon mixed with tofu, plus Tsing Yi steamed and seasoned with carrot leaves, enoki mushroom segments, shiitake mushrooms wrapped in tender cabbage leaves;
Seven hot dishes: sweet and sour five flavors stir-fried with five kinds of fruits and vegetables including green and red peppers, pineapple, beef tenderloin and onion, wild white scrambled eggs, pepper and chicken shreds, thick soup mountain mushroom pot, hairy prawns, green onion and green bamboo shoots, and finally It is a red clam red chicken soup with snow clams, which is served as usual.
At this time, the feast has been held in the Royal Garden, and the whole night is illuminated with bright lights, which is very beautiful.
There is still a creative dish left. You have to take advantage of the time to serve the dish, and you will make mistakes one second later.
So I first picked a rib muscle on the back of the marinated beef, and cut it at the best angle. Asked them to find an iron plate, carefully clean it, put it on a charcoal fire, and put a little oil on the iron plate.
Put the marinated beef steak on it, and a “sizzle” sounded suddenly. The meat flavour slowly spread from the iron plate to the surroundings. I shoveled it down for a while, sprinkled with a little wine, and the iron plate burned instantly. A wonderful blue flame.
Finally, my right hand was gently turned, the shovel was raised, and the steak wrapped in flames suddenly drew a beautiful arc like a firework in the air, and landed safely on the fine porcelain plate on my left hand, cutting the steak into small pieces. Chunks, drizzle with the prepared black pepper juice, decorate with coriander and shredded red pepper.
I dared not delay, and quickly put it on the carved tray, covered the dish with a lid, and brought a tribute of red wine. I asked the **** who passed the dish that I had to present it in person, otherwise it would not show the effect of the dish, and Long Yan might be displeased, because we have no benefits. They weighed the pros and cons and agreed.
At this time, the female families were talking and laughing around the emperor at the banquet. Together with the new dishes tonight, Long Yan was very happy and the atmosphere was very pleasant. I ran forward in three steps and two steps, for fear of a second delay.
“Song Yiran, the minion’s royal dining room, please please the emperor and all the princesses. The small one has a dish, and the small one needs to serve it at this time, so I don’t dare to delay it for a second. I may disturb the emperor and the princesses. The emperor and all the princesses forgive sins.”
“Flat body, do you have any dishes coming up quickly.” The emperor did not investigate why I rushed in, and it seemed to be in a good mood.
I picked up the plate of steak and put it in front of the emperor. The moment the lid was lifted, the blue flame was still burning. Fortunately, it was too late. I picked up the red wine in my hand and slowly poured it into the steak. It came up again, swaying on the steak, like a Persian dancer from a foreign country.
Everyone present at the moment was fascinated by the blue flames on the dish. They had never seen such cooking methods, nor had they seen such novel dishes.
When the flames disappeared, the aroma of red wine suddenly filled the air. The steak that combines color, fragrance and taste seems to be a success.
When the emperor and the concubines were tasting the dishes, I looked up and looked at the audience with Yu Guang, looking for the shadow of the princess. But it was found that someone was staring at me tightly, and the burning eyes were not from the princess, but from Li Fei, Su Yueran.
She sat next to the emperor and ate my food quietly, still with the charming charm of the soul, and when I looked at her, she slowly raised her chopsticks and picked up the steak to signal to me, and then slowly In the entrance, the corner of the mouth evoked an evil smile.
This concubine is too brave. On such a big occasion, she does this. She is not afraid of the emperor’s blame for such unchecked points. Anyway, I am afraid. I pretended not to see anything, and looked down again. .
After the emperor and the concubines had tasted the steak, they were full of praise, and Long Yan was even more delighted.
“What’s the name of this dish?” the emperor asked.
“For the Emperor, this dish is called Lan Ji Flame Steak.”
“Okay, you have done a good job with this dish. Come and reward~” The emperor looked very happy.
I returned to thank Lord Long, and slowly withdrew from the banquet venue.
Why didn’t you see the princess?
I didn’t see the princess after a few glances. Where did she go?
While thinking, I walked inside the Royal Garden and looked for it. From afar, I saw a huge banyan tree, which was covered with red threads and sachets.
Look under the tree, hey, there seems to be someone? !
