Chang’an Small Restaurant

    The cook in Lin Mansion fell into a career crisis and became more and more uneasy, so he had to ask the people around Alang.

    Liu Chang received a large plate of all kinds of cakes from the kitchen, and smiled to comfort them: "It's really okay, Alang is a bit of a bitter summer."

    "But I'm really scared and don't know what to do for Alang."

    Liu Chang thought of what he saw when he went to Shenji Distillery to pick up Alang, and he was quick to say, "Make some seasonal things, such as cold saffron leaves, use meat sauce as a topping, and add more Vegetables like shredded courgette, bean sprouts, cowpeas, and lettuce.”

    The chef nodded and thanked him, but his heart was still beating. In previous years, I didn't see Alang particularly likes cold shopping, but he ate more porridge and side dishes, but since the people around Alang said so, he had to give it a try.

    Leng Tao is often seen at night in the Lin family.

    In this regard, Mrs. Jiang Tai likes it, "These vegetables are well added, and there are no such things in Lengtao before. This fish fillet topping has the meaning of Bianzhou Huixianlou, these days we have The people in the kitchen are more attentive."

    Although there are only two masters of the Lin family, they make five or six kinds of toppings, including hog meat sauce, mutton sauce, mushrooms and mushrooms, sea bass slices, tender chicken breast and bamboo shoots. Duck meat sauce with diced melon, there are many side dishes, a small plate, a food table can not fit.

    Lin Yan gave her grandmother a small strand of cold noodles, changed the toppings, added vegetables, and mashed garlic with sesame oil, mixed it herself, and handed it to Mrs. Jiang Tai with a smile, "Grandma loves to eat, so let them make it from time to time."

    Mrs. Tai recalled with her grandson, "The fish in Huixianlou is good because it is next to a lake, and this lake is connected to a canal. Although it is a lake, it is living water. Put the fish basket in the lake, say you want to eat it, then fish it out, kill it and cook it on the spot, so it is so fresh."

    Lin Yan nodded, suddenly remembering the little lady Shen who also had a mouth full of food allusions, if she was here, it would be a good time to talk with her grandmother? The scene where she came to deliver walnut cheese porridge to chat with her grandmother that day came to her mind, and even when she cooked porridge, she made a gentleman's tone that was different from one another... Lin Yan curled the corners of his lips.

    After eating, out of grandmother's yard, Lin Yan looked at Liu Chang who was accompanying him.

    Liu Chang knew that the incident had happened, laughed dryly, and crossed his hands to make amends: "I didn't dare to say anything else, I just let the cooks try it out... slave, slave is willing to be punished."

    Lin Yan gave him another look, and said indifferently, "Let's post it, if you commit the crime again in the future, you will be punished by yourself."

    Liu Chang breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly crossed his hands to say yes.

    "I have something for you to do..." Lin Yan ordered with a light cough.

    Shen Shaoguang received a large box of roses from Liu Chang within two days.

    Shen Shaoguang: "…"

    "The little lady has done a good job in the honey-stained flowers, but our cook can't make such a smell. Please ask the little lady to stain these flowers."

    Shen Shaoguang breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Lin Shaoyin was struck by lightning and wanted to chase me, hahaha...

    But then I thought about it, I was chasing the little lady to send flowers and peony and peony. The so-called "Vishi and women, Yiqi will banter and give them peony." It is still in the "Book of Songs" era. Classical Tradition. Roses, in this dynasty, do not have so many romantic meanings.

    "All these, candy and honey?" Shen Shaoguang asked, when will they be eaten?

    In a wooden box three feet long, two feet wide, and two feet high, full of roses, all the branches were cut, leaving only the flowers, which looked quite shocking.

    Shen Shaoguang suspects that someone's rose garden has been cut clean - just to eat!

    Incense the violin and cook the crane! How could Lin Shaoyin, a disciple of the sage and a gentleman, do such a thing as a bald warlord in the Republic of China?

    But doing so much, it is convenient to fight the autumn wind...

    "The little lady just looks at it and does it." Liu Chang smiled.

    "Then - let's steam some more flower dew."

    Liu Chang smiled and saluted, "It's all up to the little lady."

    Shen Shaoguang nodded and took the errand.

    Those who have seen "Dream of Red Mansions" must be familiar with rose sauerkraut and rose dew, rose sauerkraut is roses stained with sugar and honey, and rose dew is steamed .

    Steamed flower dew was once very popular among noble ladies of this dynasty, and it was regarded as a manifestation of "getting into the kitchen". ①

      In summer, all kinds of flowers are in full bloom, and some are always steamed for the use or consumption of concubines and concubines.

    Shen Shaoguang once saw a Hu-style ceramic still pot in the West Market. It cost a few hundred dollars, which is not expensive, but because it was not needed, I never bought it. For the OEM business, I found a space to buy it.

    Whether candied, honey, or distilled flower dew, Shen Shaoguang is a skilled worker, but Yu San, A Yuan and others are very fresh to this steamed flower dew.

    Yu San went around the still pot, "It turns out that the flower dew is steamed..."

    Shen Shaoguang asked with a smile, "Didn't your original master's wife and little ladies steam this?"

    Yu San paused, "No steaming."

    Is it the difference between North and South? Is steamed flower dew mainly popular in Gyeonggi? Also a possibility.

    Shen Shaoguang washed all the petals with clean well water, one-third of them were stained with sugar, one-third of them were stained with honey, and one-third was placed in a still.

      people can operate.

      In the dregs below, the amount of flower dew that came out was small and thin, and there were even boiled, sticky smells, and the pot of dew was finished.

    Yu San saw it and understood the principle, so forget it; Ah Chang usually ignores this; only Ah Yuan always thinks about it and comes to see it from time to time, because Shen Shaoguang promised her, "Wait for steaming. Come out, I'll make you a bowl to drink first."

    Shen Shaoguang didn't break his promise. After the flower dew was steamed, he really made a bowl of white water from the well for Ah Yuan first, as well as Yu San and Ah Chang.

    "Yeah, incense!" A Yuan nodded fiercely.

    "If you want to eat sweet, you can add some sugar, but don't add honey, it will be tasteless."

    A Yuan said: "That's good."

    In order to match this elegant flower dew, Shen Shaoguang also bought several white porcelain vases, four or five inches long, with a small mouth and a long neck and a round belly, a bit like a jade vase in the fairy tale drama. Pack the flower dew, plug it with wooden plugs, and put it together with the jars containing candied flowers and honey-stained flowers. When Lin Shaoyin arrives, let him send someone to move it.

    I didn't wait for Lin Shaoyin, but waited for the attendant Liu. He came here as a gift for Shaoyin's monthly meal.

    Shen Shaoguang asked him to take these bottles and jars away, and after a while, he turned around again and brought a return gift - a picture screen.

    "My wife would like to thank the little lady for helping to make honey-stained roses and flower dew."

    Shen Shaoguang looked at the screen, the sandalwood frame, the fine Su Juan, in the painting a lotus pond, the pink lotus blossoms are blooming, a kingfisher is flying, and another is combing its feathers. The casual atmosphere is just right for summer.

    If it was a very expensive gilded screen, or a very private bed pillow screen, Shen Shaoguang would have rejected it without thinking, but this screen was a bit of a rub, and it was not commonplace, however, It's not appropriate to always accept this kind of thing, and it's not that people with similar portals salute each other. Besides, is this really from Mrs. This Lin Shaoyin...

    Seeing Shen Shaoguang's refusal, Liu Chang smiled and begged for approval: "In the future, I will inevitably ask the little lady for help, please don't refuse, otherwise why would we be so embarrassed to come?"

    Shen Shaoguang thought about it for a while, and said earnestly: "Please ask Mrs. Tai, don't be so polite in the future, we are really ashamed."

    Liu Chang saluted and said goodbye.

    Back to the Lin house, Liu Chang went to the inner study to report: "It has been sent to Mrs. Shen."

    "Yes." Lin Yan, who was approving documents, nodded.

    "Little lady said - don't be so polite in the future." Liu Chang glanced at Lin Yan and said carefully.

    Lin Yan's pen paused, "Got it."

    Looking at the six large screens with long cursive writing and song lines written, Liu Chang stepped back.

      Two egrets roamed leisurely. You don't need to look closely to know that it is the same lotus pond as the screen that was sent out.

    Liu Chang would like to know what kind of bedside pillow screen Alang often uses...

    The author has something to say:

    ①There are objections about the ancient distillation technology. It is said that there is a Han Dynasty distiller in Shangbo, but before the Tang and Song Dynasties, very few distillation techniques were found in the literature. Some experts believe that with the influx of more and more Hu people in the Tang Dynasty, they brought various spices and steamed perfume technology, which promoted the development of domestic distilled flower dew and perfume technology - we use this statement. As for the attention of the female protagonist in steaming the flower dew, it is purely my nonsense. Little angels, have a good time.
