Chapter 66 Taurus Duck? Buying Pastries
Taurus duck is a styling dish. It is not difficult for the duck to make bones. It is much easier than taking the bones in chicken wings. Leave half of the duck leg bones for shaping for shaping.
The duck's beak is cut off from its nostrils and split into two pieces to act as a cow's ear. The duck's wing tip is cut off at the second section and makes the cow's horns.
While Sai Xishi was cooking, Ren Yuge told Li Luotang the allusion of this dish, "Minghu Lake is also called Jinniu Lake. It is said that there is a Taurus lying in the lake. The drought is shallow, and the Taurus spits water, which makes Minghu reappear. There is a corrupt official who wants to take the cow for himself. It makes Taurus furious, whispering waves, and drowning the corrupt official. Later, a chef made this dish based on this story."
"Brother Li, the story you told is dry and not nice." Li Luotang said disgusted.
Ren Yuge smiled bitterly and said, "Tangtang, I am a chef, not a scholar, so please forgive me."
Li Luotang smiled and said with no thoughts: "Forgive me, forgive me."
At this time, Sai Xishi tied the duck that was lying in a bull shape with a hemp rope, and put it in a boiling water pot until it is fixed.
After cooking and shaping, put it in a small pot, put it in a scallion, ginger slices, and Shaoxing wine, add water until it is submerged, add the cage and steam it over high heat and steam it out of the cage, drain it, apply soy sauce, and then fry it in a pan with 80% hot heat.
After this dish is cooked, steamed and fryed, you can place it on the plate. The duck's beak is inserted into the duck's ears and become a beef nose, insert it into the eye socket as a beef horn, apply sesame oil, and then cut the green leaves into shreds and fry the pineapple, and surround the duck's lying beef.
"Sister Li, look." Sai Xishi held up the plate.
Li Luotang gave a thumbs up, "The shape is realistic."
This dish looks delicious, but what should she do if she wants to eat it now? But this is the first dish made by Sai Xishi, and there are a few more dishes to cook before she can eat.
Li Luotang could only bear the drooling that was about to spread and left the kitchen step by step.
After Sai Xishi cooked all the other dishes and served them on the table, it was already half an hour later.
"It's time to have a meal." Li Luotang cheered.
Li Luotang immediately reached out to the Taurus duck, and the "beef front hoof" was clamped. The skin was crispy and tender, and the meat was oily and fresh. It was worthy of being the second place.
After Tang Chenxiao had a chopstick dish, "Shi Shi, after these five days of competition, your cooking skills have improved a lot."
Sai Xishi smiled happily and said, "I will work harder. When you and Sister Li come to Yuezhou at the end of the year, I will cook a large table of dishes for you to eat."
Go to Yuezhou at the end of the year?
Neither Li Luotang nor Tang Chenxiao answered this. It was already May, and it was only seven months before the end of the year. They could not guarantee that they could go around Bashu and then return to Yuezhou at the end of the year.
Ren Yuge knew that those who were loyal to their promises would not make promises easily, so he immediately changed the topic, "Tangtang, what is it in it when you try this dish?"
Li Luotang cleverly followed his wishes and picked up food and ate it, "Brown sugar, no, it's red wine."
"Tangtang is amazing, you can taste it." Ren Yuge smiled.
"No matter whether it is brown sugar or red stew, it is delicious anyway." Tian Shiqi happily picked up another large chopstick dish.
After dinner, Ren Juege taught Xi Shi to recognize and write, Li Luotang helped feed the flower tail. He took a bite and wagged his tail, and he was cute and cute.
The next day, Sai Xishi, accompanied by Ren Juege, went to the market to buy vegetables, Tian Shiqi went to Shenquan Villa outside the city, and Tang Chenxiao accompanied Li Luotang to Jiuzhizhai to buy pastries. Even if the weather was hot, some pastries could still be kept for two or three days.
When the two arrived at Jiuzhizhai, they found that there were more than a dozen people queuing up, seeing that they were supposed to be slaves to wealthy families.
Li Luotang was still willing to queue up for food. After waiting for about two quarters of an hour, it was her turn. When the guy saw the visiting noodle dish, he knew it was his first visit, so he quickly recommended it: "Young master, what are you going to buy? The shop has the best sugar cakes, date cakes, yam cakes, and poria cakes. If you like salty flavor, the shop also has the salt and salt beef tongue cakes, which came from Jingli. Young master, should you buy some and try it?"
"I want to buy crystal cake." Li Luotang said.
"Young Master, there are only twenty boxes of this crystal cake every day, and it has been sold out long ago. There is still a box of black sesame cake and lotus cake. Do you want it?"
Li Luotang raised his eyebrows and sold it in a limited quantity. The person who came up with this idea for Jiuzhizhai is not a business genius or a talent. Without crystal cakes, you can't go there in vain. "Okay, come two boxes of peach blossom crisps, two boxes of sugar cakes, two boxes of date red cakes, two boxes of salt and pepper beef tongue cakes, two boxes of rose fragrant cakes, two boxes of..."
"Tangtang, enough is enough. If you buy too much, you can't finish it. It will break." Tang Chenxiao said to stop it. This girl had a rack to buy someone else's store.
"I didn't buy much!" Li Luotang glanced at Tang Chenxiao resentfully. I wonder if women's desire for shopping cannot be disturbed? No wonder they are still single at such an old age. "Okay, just buy these!"
"Li Luotang."
Li Luotang looked back and raised his lips and smiled, "Gu Ting-hyun."
Gu Tingqi walked over, stopped three steps away from Li Luotang, and nodded slightly to Tang Chenxiao. Tang Chenxiao's smile slightly lowered. How could this kid be like this? The guards of Tianwu Mansion have nothing to do, are they so idle?
"Come here to buy pastries?" Gu Ting asked in a hurry.
Tang Chenxiao frowned. This is not nonsense. Standing at the door of the pastry shop, not buying pastries, can it be bought cloth?
"The crystal cake yesterday was delicious." Li Luotang admitted readily. She came here to buy the crystal cake today because the crystal cake he gave was greedy.
Gu Ting glanced at the pastry box in the guy's hand and said, "Didn't you buy it?"
"Sold out." Li Luotang sighed, "I can only buy it when I come to Lin'an next time."
"Are you leaving Lin'an?" Gu Ting asked in surprise.
Tang Chenxiao said first: "We are accompanying someone to participate in the food competition. Now the competition has ended, what are you still doing in Lin'an?"
This choking tone made Li Luotang look back at him in surprise. Didn’t he praise him for being humble and polite yesterday, but why did he do it today...
Well, it's similar to reading a book when men turn their faces on their faces.
"I'll leave tomorrow?" Gu Tingxian did not offend Tang Chenxiao's attitude. The people of Jianghu and Tianwu Mansion had a deep grudge. Tang Chenxiao was normal.
"Well, where are you? When will you go back to Kyoto?" Li Luotang asked.
"It's also tomorrow." Gu Ting smiled slightly on his lips.
This is really a coincidence. Yesterday, when he returned to the government office from Hongfu Inn, he received an order from Beijing to return to Kyoto today.
The guy packed all the pastries, "Young master, it's a total of ten taels and sixteen coins."
With this price, you know that this is not something that the poor can afford. Li Luotang paid the money and bowed, "There will be a good time in the future."
Gu Tingxian looked at her and bowed her back, "There will be a good time in the future."
After walking a few steps, Tang Chenxiao turned around and stared at Gu Ting. This kid had absolutely ulterior motives for Tangtang.
Gu Ting was calm and watched the two leave. He said to his friend: "I want to see your shopkeeper."
