Farmhouse cooks have space

Chapter 979 Palace Banquet 7
After she left, He Miao adjusted the menu and finally ordered ten dishes and one soup.

They are roast duck, slobbering chicken, squirrel mandarin fish, boiled white meat with pickled cabbage, iron lion head, cumin lamb, Wensi tofu, shredded apples, boiled cabbage, Kung Pao chicken, and finally Buddha Jumping Wall is included in the soup.

However, most of them are semi-finished products, so they are made very quickly. Taking advantage of the time when Aunt Hua went out, He Miao cut out mutton and chicken cubes, as well as the fig meat for blanching.

When Nanny Hua came in, she happened to see He Miao dipping a knife in water and cutting shredded tofu. The key is tofu or tender tofu. Looking at the shredded tofu that was cut not much thicker than dragon beard noodles, she stepped forward full of surprise Said: "My God, this is the first time I've seen tofu that can be cut into such thin shreds, and it's tender tofu."

"The imperial chefs in the imperial dining room must be able to cut it out, but they haven't cut it before." He Miao replied without raising his head.

Because this tender tofu is a special test of knife skills, if you are not careful, the plate of shredded tofu will be ruined.

Seeing that she was so modest, Madam Hua didn't emphasize it any more. She watched her cut up the tofu and began to shred carrots before turning to peel apples.

Soon, bursts of fragrance wafted from the small kitchen, which directly attracted the First Prince and Qin Ziqian over.

"You two little masters, the kitchen is too messy, you should go back to your room and wait." Madam Hua hurried over and stopped.

"It's okay, I heard from my mother that cooking is also an art, so we'll just come and have a look." After the eldest prince finished speaking, he led Qin Ziqian inside.

Fortunately, the two did not step forward, but stood quietly watching He Miao prepare various side dishes.

After the dishes were ready, I began to carve various small flowers with carrots and Xinmei, and finally prepared some celery sticks for connecting branches.

Qin Ziqian looked at the small flowers rapidly forming in her hands, and finally couldn't help asking: "Aunt Fengyang, can you carve little rabbits?"

"Little rabbit?" He Miao paused and said, "Okay, then let's carve a white red-eyed little rabbit."

After finishing talking, I finished carving the flower in my hand, then took out a big white radish, cut it into two pieces, and carved them into white little rabbits, and finally used the beautiful pieces in my heart to put two red ones on the little rabbits. Eye.

Then they handed it to them respectively and said: "If you want to store it for a longer time, you can freeze it outside into ice cubes, but it won't look good when it melts."

"We know." The eldest prince took it carefully and said.

After that, he turned around and went back to the house with Qin Ziqian happily.

At the same time, he also agreed with what the queen mother said, he really didn't think that this humble cooking skill is really an art.

Thinking of this and looking at the little rabbit in his hand, he thought about learning how to carve from He Miao.

And Qin Ziqian obviously didn't want to leave yet, seeing this, He Miao hurriedly handed the mung bean cake with red bean filling that he had prepared earlier to Nanny Hua and said, "Send them back."

"Alright." Nanny Hua took the snack bag, turned around and took the two of them back to the house.

The queen mother saw the little rabbit in the hands of the two at a glance, and then waved to them and said, "Come here and let grandma see how well Fengyang's carving skills are."

"Grandma Huang, Aunt Fengyang said that if you want to preserve it well, it should be frozen into ice cubes." Qin Ziqian trotted over and said.

"Really? But if it's frozen, you can't play with it in your hand." The queen mother took it with a smile and looked at the little rabbit carefully, and then said to the queen and the solemn princess: "It seems that we can eat it at noon." It was a feast full of color and flavor."
