The Imperial Concubine Chef - C149
Su Xinyu had revealed a small trick today. She cooked four dishes that she had never cooked in the Yuxiang Restaurant before.
This dish is made with chicken antlers to make a sauce, and then sprinkled on top of the scalded dish. The so-called Ruyi dish is the root of the bean sprout to remove the bud, leaving only the snow-white part in the middle. After being boiled and cooked with broth, the Ruyi Cuisine’s entire body was half transparent. The seasoning in the soup avoided the fishy taste of the bean sprout, as well as the refreshing taste of the bean sprout itself. In the end, add the sauce of chicken antler. It looked light and light, but it was filled with the fragrance of meat and the rich spices, yet it could not mask the taste of the bean sprout itself.
When this dish was just served, Ji Linhai was still smiling. As a result, he was unable to control his chopsticks after taking the first bite. If Su Xinyu had not done so much, the Chief Officer Ji alone would have been able to eat a huge plate of meat.
“Yu, what is this? Why is it so delicious? Furthermore, the texture is crisp and refreshing. Ji Linhai was very curious.
Su Xinyu replied, “Look at what you’re saying, aren’t these the bean sprout vegetables sent out by the soybeans? Most of the dishes in my house are made of this stuff. However, if I were to end up with this, it would be very different. Since the bean sprout looked flawless and it also seemed like a tiny ruyi, it was also known as the Ruyi Cuisine. This sauce is made from chicken antler, so I gave this dish a name, Mascot. ”
Zhuo Qianling put down his chopsticks, and couldn’t help but give a thumbs up. “I’ve long heard of how great Young Master Su’s cooking is. Seeing it now was indeed extraordinary. Good luck, good food, good name, good restaurant, good little boss! “Hahaha!”
Although General Zhuo had a straightforward personality, and he didn’t know that Su Xinyu was a girl, Shangguan Lin himself felt a little depressed. But when he saw Su Xinyu looking at him and even giving him a meaningful glance, he awkwardly ignored the small grievances in his heart. General Zhuo might as well try this. Xinyu, what’s this called?
The dish looked like a pink ball. Su Xinyu picked up a spoon and knocked on one of the balls. In a flash, the ball split open and a wave of hot air emanated from within. What followed was a refreshing wave of fragrance.
At this point, Ji Linhai could no longer hold it in. Yu, what exactly is this? ”
Su Xinyu took out the thing inside the “ball”, placed it on a clean plate and cut it into three parts. I named this dish Four Seas. In fact, it’s just salt grilled abalone. It’s just that I did a little bit of salt and made them into balls. I also put spices in the salt outside. When I roast it, the juice of the abalone will merge with the salt and the spice, and then steam it back to the abalone itself. You three can try it and see, how does the heart taste when it tastes like the four seas? ”
Just the production process alone was enough to tempt the three of them. Then the chopsticks were added to the abalone fish. The fragrance spread from her lips and teeth, as well as the juice of the abalone itself. It was so delicious that it made people close their eyes and only want to carefully savor it.
There were not many dishes on this dish, but because the outer shell was not easy to make, Su Xinyu cooked ten of them. Now one is shared by three. The other nine would naturally have three each. SShe quickly finished the abalone. This time, no one had time to praise him. He quickly looked at the third dish.
“Su Xinyu opened the lid of the” poached pot “. This dish is called a pineapple. They used swallows nests, fish wings, sea cucumbers, abalone, dried shellfish, deer tendons, viscose, stomach slices, yellow throat and other ingredients. Originally, she should have stewed it under water for four hours. However, I’ve used a special method to quickly make the materials inside soft and rotten to the core. ”
In the end, Ji Linhai gave him a bowl of First Pot. He first drank a mouthful of soup, and then clicked his tongue with emotion, “Good fellow.” I borrowed the light from the Thousand Ridge. Normally, Yu would never cook such expensive and troublesome dishes. This taste is truly seventy percent better than the imperial meal I ate at the palace back then. ”
Su Xinyu scooped up another similar bowl and handed it over to Shangguan Lin, then she scooped it all up and handed it over to him. If it was originally a normal customer, he would have given it to Zhuo Qianling first. “But what can be done? Ji Linhai is still an elder, but Wen Ling is a prince and Zhuo Qianling is a general. When uncle says this, it’s because nephew is being slow on a daily basis. ”
Ji Linhai promptly shook his hand: “I wouldn’t dare to say that. Your aunt will be angry with me if she hears that. Hahaha. “However, this pot is truly delicious. It is truly a pity that your aunt was unable to taste it since she did not come today.”
Su Xinyu laughed. Of course not. I have already asked Xiao Tong to send it over to Aunt. You don’t bring your aunt. My nephew is very pained. ”
Ji Linhai laughed: “Look! This brat really didn’t allow anyone to say anything. Tell us quickly, what is your last line today? Does it look like braised pork ribs to me? But the color doesn’t look right either. ”
Su Xinyu told him, “You guessed wrong. The ribs were ribs, but they were not braised. It’s the tea. ”
Shangguan Lin saw that the one he liked was talking to his uncle the entire time. Somehow, today, he was so petty that he hurried to catch up with him. Burn it? It’s the kind you’ve done before, the honey? ”
“Su Xinyu laughed. No. This is tea. It is made of tea as supplementary material, spices and even fumigant. There was nothing strange about the meat, but after being cured and roasted with tea, the aroma of the meat carried the scent of tea, and the tea was able to make the oil go away. I made the fire a little older during the cooking process, and it was very suitable for drinking wine. “I don’t believe you three can try.”
Wasn’t it to give it a try? Hearing Su Xinyu’s words, the three of them could not help but extend their chopsticks. “This time, Shangguan Lin was the one who hurried over to make his opinion known. Delicious. Even eating empty-mouth food is excellent, not to mention wine. Xinyu, your cooking skills are truly impeccable. ”
Su Xinyu laughed: “Is it even comparable to Royal Kitchen?”
It was originally a teasing remark, but Shangguan Lin replied seriously, “Indeed, you’re better than a imperial chef. The things that those people were used to doing only served them well and rarely brought them new ideas. How could I have such thoughts like you? “So they can’t compare to you.”
Zhuo Qianling felt the same way. His Royal Highness was right. In fact, it’s like a lot of officials. He did not seek for meritorious service, but instead, he lived a life of luxury. How much of it was sincere for the people? The Left is only doing what the Emperor asks. The few who were willing to do something big had been cheated by Lady Lou quite a few times in the past few years. What a pity. ”
Ji Linhai sighed: “What’s there to regret about? Now, just come back one by one. It’s just that you can’t agree to this matter, Fifth Bro. “Don’t end up with a personal contract.”
They also didn’t treat Su Xinyu as an outsider, so they just said these words out loud. But even if they could say it, Su Xinyu did not want to hear it. Thus, she borrowed an excuse to get some good wine and quickly left the room. After leaving, he wiped the sweat off her forehead. This Chief Officer Ji’s trust also gave her a headache.
The three of them ate from noon all the way until they were about to take charge of the lights. When they left after eating their fill, they saw that it was already “packed” outside.
This was the first time Ji Linhai came to the Yuxiang Restaurant for a meal, so it was very novel to see this scene. In his heart, he admired Su Xinyu even more. Zhuo Qianling thought about it in an even simpler manner. To be able to make the restaurant so excellent at such a young age, and to have such amazing culinary skills, the key point was that with his clear thoughts and rational appearance, it was enough for him to firmly believe that this Little Boss Su would definitely not be someone within a pool in the future.
After sending off the three great Buddhas, Su Xinyu could finally heave a sigh of relief. With the thing that Shangguan Lin gave her secretly in her pocket before she left, he told Sun Xiguang that she would be going back first.
After returning home, since Su Wenlan knew that Zhuo Qianling was the current Great General, she was naturally very worried. She waited for his daughter to come back so that she could interrogate her.
Su Xinyu smiled and told his mother, “Mother, don’t worry. General Zhuo is a student of the Chief Officer Ji, even if I give him face, he wouldn’t make things difficult for me. Furthermore, do you still not trust my cooking skills? ”
Although Madam Liu was also worried, she believed in her grandson’s words more. Wenlan, just trust Xinyu. If she said yes, she would. If he says it’s harmless, it’s natural. ”
Su Xinyu could not help but cry. Grandmother’s trust was quite blind. However, Su Wenlan did not tell Madam Liu some things, so she waited until Mother was sent back to her room before pulling her daughter over. Xinyu, Wen Ling’s matter… Have you asked clearly? ”
Actually, no matter how much Su Wenlan didn’t want to speak about, she still wanted to clarify this matter. Previously, she said that when Wen Ling appears again, she would explain everything clearly to her daughter. It was time.
Su Xinyu sighed. She locked the door and brought his mother into the space. After pouring herself a cup of fruit tea, Su Xinyu finally revealed Shangguan Lin’s identity to his mother.
Su Wenlan was already worried about the big families. This was actually the prince of a country, the younger brother of the emperor, the son of the empress dowager. How could Su Wenlan not be afraid of this? Xinyu. Back… It was better not to talk too much. “No, let’s not talk about it anymore.”
Su Xinyu sighed again, “Mother. It’s not what I can do. What’s more … He had already expressed her feelings to me, and I had promised to wait for him to give me the promise he had promised. Mother, I don’t want to lie to you, but I can’t either. In this life, no matter what Shangguan Lin can do for me, I can’t lie to you. But you are the closest person to me. Therefore, I can only tell you that I have something to tell you. “Since I gave him the chance, I won’t go back on my word.”
Su Wenlan frowned: “Xinyu. His identity… Even if I agree to your request. But in the palace, how many people had died? Even the late emperor’s heir, imperial concubine, and many princes and princesses have lost their lives. Mother does not wish for you to lead such a terrifying life in the future. Moreover, Wen, Prince Ling’s mother is the empress dowager. How could she agree to marry a girl from a normal family? “Women in men’s clothing …”
Su Xinyu laughed: “I am me. Accept it or not, I won’t change it. He took the initiative, not me. You don’t have to be sad about what will happen to me in the future. In a few years, he will change, and so will I. Whether or not we can achieve an end in the future, I cannot guarantee. ” I’m just waiting here, waiting for a definite answer. Whether I’m happy or sad, it’s not up to me to decide. But once I have the answer, I won’t let myself go down. However, when these words are said, it is far from being possible for them to be more meaningful in the future. “
