When Gu Qianxue asked to show her cooking skills, Qin Fei was naturally surprised.
Gu Qianxue's hospitality is due to her gratitude to Princess Qin. Although in the case of Princess Chang, Princess Qin is kind and does bad things, she can't erase her kindness.
In the kitchen of King Li's mansion, the cooks all flashed aside because the kitchen was requisitioned by Gu Qianxue and Qin Fei.
"Mother Shen, you really don't need servants To fight? " The steward in charge of the kitchen stood at the door and looked inside carefully.
Don't blame the kitchen steward. It's true that other people's owners "cook in person" are just pretending. For example, when cooking soup for a male master, the servant girls are cooking, while the female head is watching; and the more diligent masters are all letting the servants to fry the processed materials in the pot after they have done something about it.
But this Miss Gu is really self-made. Even if she peels a green onion or cuts a garlic, she does it herself.
What surprised the people in the palace most was that Miss Gu was the one holding the spoon, and the empress Qin was the one who hit her.
It can be said that all the servants, including mother Shen, had a heart in their throat. They were afraid that empress Qin would be hurt accidentally, even if it was splashed with an oil star, they would have to lose their heads.
Mother Shen was also worried, "Niang, you are weak, or you will sit outside and let the old slave fight for Miss Gu."
Imperial concubine Qin said with a smile, "the palace has recovered, and its muscles and bones are also good. If you calculate, this palace has not been to the kitchen for 20 years."
Gu Qianxue didn't notice Qin Fei's people. Her attention was on the menu.
In modern times, although they also cook their own dishes, they are fried with green pepper, shredded potatoes, eggs and tomatoes. Basically, everyone can fry them. What's more, her cooking skills are not high.
Well, if you don't win in the craft, you have to do it in the menu.
Imperial concubine Qin likes to eat sweets, especially snacks. It is said that when the emperor and Princess Qin were deeply in love, they almost collected snacks from all over the world for her to taste.
What's more, imperial concubine Qin likes to drink tea, which is one of the reasons why King Li sent people to send tea quickly.
Sweetheart?
Cream cake should be nice, right?
Gu Qianxue wants to make cream cake, puff and so on, but he doesn't have an oven. He doesn't even have a minimum electric cooker. How to do it?
Suddenly, Gu Qianxue thought of a food - Matcha thousand layer cake!
It can be said that Matcha thousand layer cake perfectly combines cake and tea. The most important thing is that you don't need an oven, just a steamer can do it!
With a clear goal, the rest can be easily solved.
"Mother Shen, can you help me find some materials?" Gu Qianxue road.
"Miss Gu, what materials do you want?" Mother Shen quickly asked, this is the palace of the king. What do you want? Why can't we find the material?
Qin Fei is also very excited. She is very curious about what kind of delicious food Gu Qianxue wants to make. Although she has not made it yet, she has a premonition that Gu Qianxue will be able to make something she has never seen before.
Sometimes imperial concubine Qin even has an impulse to split Gu Qianxue's cerebellar pouch melon to see what it contains, and why she can always think of ideas that outsiders can't think of.
"Green tea, tea, fresh milk, milk and goat's milk can be used." Gu Qianxue said, "also, help me find a craftsman, with wire, and a new medicine roller."
One side of the palace administrator hastily opened, did not use a while, all things are placed in front of Gu Qianxue.
Gu Qianxue looked at Qin Fei awkwardly and said, "Niang, Qianxue didn't think about it carefully. These materials should be prepared in advance. You Will you be hungry now? Or eat another cushion first? "
Qin Fei said with a smile, "this palace is not hungry. Don't worry about it. Do it slowly. There is a saying that a good meal is not afraid of being late."
The servant girls quickly brought the chair, let Qin Fei sit down, Gu Qianxue is facing the craftsman and others to open.
First of all, she told her servant girl to find a clean iron pan to fry the dried tea leaves even more dry, and then grind them with a medicine grinder. After grinding, the broken tea leaves are filtered with a fine sieve, leaving only the tea powder as fine as powder.
Secondly, let the craftsman bend the wire into a special shape, combine them together like a blooming flower, and fix the wire with a wooden stick.
People secretly wonder what the use of this wire is. In fact, modern people have seen this thing, and almost everyone can use it. It is a manual egg beater.
After everything is ready, Gu Qianxue pulls up his sleeve, washes his hands carefully, and starts to operate.
First, Gu Qianxue puts the milk into a closed bottle and shakes it hard to separate the fresh butter from the milk. Then he opens the bottle, carefully filters out the butter and puts it in a bowl on the side.
, then, open the eggs, remove the yolk, leave only the egg whites, carefully separate the egg white and yolk, put the egg whites in a clean and dry bowl, and then beat the fish eye vesicle with egg whisk, add sugar, continue beating, and soon the foam becomes fine and sugar until the egg whites are beaten to the hard foam, the butter is finished.There was no sound in the kitchen, except for the sound of the iron wire of the egg beater hitting the porcelain basin from time to time. Not only did Princess Qin and mother Shen, but also all the servants peeped into the kitchen, hoping to learn some moves.
Gu Qianxue looked up and found many people peeping.
Under the peep, people quickly lowered their heads, because Nanyue Kingdom has unique skills in all walks of life, and some of them are not spread abroad.
Gu Qianxue suddenly realized, and then said with a smile, "you don't have to be stiff. You can come to learn. If there is anything you don't understand, ask directly. If the Matcha thousand layer cake really suits the lady's taste, you should make it for the lady in the future. "
Everyone is surprised by Gu Qianxue's magnanimity, and he is more fond of the amiable Gu Qianxue.
Qin Fei looks at Gu Qianxue's eyes, soft and soft, with praise and appreciation in her eyes.
Gu Qianxue continued his work, mixing flour, tea powder and sugar in a pot, and then beat in the eggs. At the same time, he began to stir with the egg beater just made. While stirring, he slowly poured in the milk.
After mixing, add the fresh butter prepared before, and continue to stir with the egg beater until the paste is even. After sieving, the batter is more delicate.
"Who will heat the pan, please?" Gu Qianxue Dao, she can't make a fire with wood.
Naturally, people did not dare to let empress Qin do it. The kitchen director pushed aside the crowd and ran in and squatted on the ground to make a fire. After a while, the flat cake pot was heated.
Gu Qianxue spread the batter slowly on the cake pan in the eyes of all the people, and baked them into soft and thin pancakes. The milk fragrance and the egg flavor are overflowing, and there is also a kind of tea fragrance.
They were so surprised that they would like to have a taste.
