Huang Anyao and Gong Baozhu are both efficient at work. They may not necessarily do the work well, but they must do it quickly.
If you ignore such a trivial matter as two small river shrimps falling out of the plate of stir-fried river shrimps, the two of them can be said to be very agile.
As Qin Huai brought a large bowl of Sixi Rice Balls to the table, the dishes were almost ready.
As for why it is basic, because Zheng Da’s Clamp Flower Palace Lantern Buns are still in the steamer, he just won’t serve them. In Zheng Da’s words, Clamp Flower Palace Lantern Buns are different from Sixi Rice Balls, and Sixi Rice Balls can be served together with vegetables.
table, to eat at mealtime.
The tongs and palace lantern buns must be made grandly as the last snack and eaten last. Serve them early and let them cool for a while. The taste will not be good. It is better to keep them warm in a steamer. He has a sense of propriety.
Huang Shengli said that Zheng Da was just picky.
Huang Anyao didn't care whether he was particular about anything, as long as he had some. He not only served the dishes, but also took bowls, ready to actively serve the dumplings to everyone.
As a result, Huang Anyao was in trouble as soon as he picked up the bowl and asked his father for help: "Dad, how many of these Sixi Rice Balls can one person hold?"
Under normal circumstances, there must be four in a bowl of Sixi Rice Balls. Zheng Da’s bowl is big enough to hold four, and it can also hold some more soup, but Qin Huai’s is not the normal Sixi Rice Balls.
The glutinous rice balls in this big basin have no shape and are blind box glutinous rice balls.
Not to mention that the Sixi dumplings are huge, and there is also a table of home-cooked dishes on the table. After four dumplings, those with slightly smaller appetites will get six or seven points, and the battle will be over after two more mouthfuls of food.
Sometimes serving glutinous rice balls is also a skill. If you don't serve it well, you will offend people.
Huang Anyao couldn't even buy fruit, let alone glutinous rice balls.
Huang Shengli said calmly: "You can just serve your own food. Why are you putting the bowls in front of you and hiding them like treasures? Give them to everyone quickly."
Huang Anyao understood instantly and handed out bowls to everyone.
Eight people sat at the small round table, Zheng Da and Zheng Siyuan sat next to each other, Huang Anyao and Huang Shengli sat next to each other, Gong Liang's family of three sat next to each other, and Qin Huai sat between Zheng Siyuan and Gong Liang.
Gong Liang looked at this scene and sighed: "It's been a long time since we had a meal together like this."
Gong Baozhu mercilessly exposed her father's lies: "Come on, Dad, we didn't eat together like this during the Chinese New Year. The year Sister Siqin got married, we ate it at our house. There were not enough bowls for Sister Siqin's husband, me and I
My elder brother went to a neighbor’s house to borrow a bowl during the Chinese New Year. On the second day, rumors spread that our family was bankrupt, so my elder brother and I went to the streets to beg for food during the Chinese New Year.”
Gong Liang:……
Gong Liang stood up and scooped out four Sixi Rice Balls for his daughter.
Gong Baozhu was overjoyed: "Thank you, dad, I like to eat glutinous rice balls the most!"
Gong Baozhu is probably the only person in this table who doesn't eat Sixi Rice Balls every day. Living far away and eating less food has the advantage of being fresh.
Qin Huai chose to eat the vegetables first.
Stir-fried river prawns, stir-fried fresh river prawns without too many condiments, just the original flavor. Qin Huai took one bite at a time and enjoyed eating it.
Huang Anyao was sitting across from Qinhuai, specializing in eel sections. He scooped two glutinous rice balls into the bowl without touching a single bite, and the eel bones piled up into a hill on the edge of the bowl.
Zheng Siyuan ate relatively evenly. Every dish was soaked in rain and dew. He tasted it with chopsticks, then went into the kitchen and took another bowl and scooped out half a bowl of steamed eggs for himself.
Qin Huai turned his head slightly in surprise. When he saw Huang Shengli making such ordinary steamed eggs in the kitchen, he still felt strange. Even if he was making home-cooked dishes, he would not be so home-cooked. He was still steaming such a big pot. It turned out that
Someone at the table likes to eat.
Everyone was eating vegetables happily, except Gong Baozhu who was eating glutinous rice balls vigorously.
Gong Baozhu ate 4 blind box dumplings, one pure meat, one peanut and melon seeds, one almond walnut, one almond peanut.
When Qin Huai made Sixi dumplings for the first time, Guo Mingzhu revealed that Gong Baozhu loved eating dumplings with mince filling, even the ones that were extremely sweet.
Qin Huai felt that the situation on the field was a bit beyond his expectation. Is he here for dinner today?
Yes.
But besides eating, there are other tasks. If I continue to eat Sixi Rice Balls like this, I will almost eat Jackie Chan's armor. How can this be done?
Qin Huai ate another river shrimp.
Alas, Huang Shengli’s craftsmanship is really great.
This stir-fried dish is so homely.
Qin Huai silently ate the two glutinous rice balls in the bowl, both of which were stuffed with meat. Then he stood up and scooped out two more glutinous rice balls.
Qin Huai said with a smile while scooping: "Compared with Master Zheng, my craftsmanship is still far behind. If I had known that without this diamond, I wouldn't have taken this porcelain job. I feel sorry for everyone to eat the glutinous rice dumplings I made today."
Hearing this, Gong Baozhu opened his eyes in surprise: "Is this dumpling still far behind? This dumpling is much more delicious than the dumpling at the entrance of my elementary school!"
"Uncle Zheng, you made glutinous rice balls a few days ago? Why didn't you tell me? I love glutinous rice balls the most!"
Zheng Da smiled so hard when he heard this, thinking that I haven't started to pretend yet, so he put it on, and said repeatedly: "Baozhu loves to eat glutinous rice balls, right? Yes, there are them all in the refrigerator. Uncle Zheng will put them on for you later."
Two big bags, both for you, Uncle Zheng made them in the past two days."
"Thank you, Uncle Zheng!"
"My dad gave you the ones stuffed with peanuts and melon seeds. I also have some stuffed with almonds and walnuts. I'll give you two bags later." Zheng Siyuan said.
Gong Baozhu didn't understand. She was thinking that when the Sixi glutinous rice balls had these two extra fillings, but she could eat as much as she wanted. She nodded repeatedly to indicate that she could eat as much as she wanted.
Huang Anyao was still immersed in eating eel segments.
Gong Liang was also eating vegetables. When Qin Huai said this, he suddenly realized that he was distracted by the home-cooked food in front of him and ignored Master Xiao Qin.
He really deserves to die. Master Xiao Qin has been working very hard these days to make Sixi Rice Balls for him, and now that the Sixi Rice Balls are placed in front of him, he doesn't cherish them.
In order to prove that he still had Sixi Rice Balls in his heart, Gong Liang immediately filled a bowl with 6 of them.
Gong Liang didn't think anything was wrong when he scooped out the dumplings. Gong Liang had eaten a lot of blind box dumplings in the past few days and was used to it. After Gong Liang finished scooping out a bowl, Huang Shengli followed closely and scooped up a bowl.
Zheng Da saw that he was lagging behind. How could this be done? He quickly scooped a bowl for himself, not forgetting to scoop a bowl for Zheng Siyuan.
In an instant, more than half of the dumplings in the basin were missing.
Guo Mingzhu originally didn't want to eat glutinous rice dumplings that much, so when she saw everyone was eating, she also had a bowl, but her bowl was smaller, only two balls.
Guo Mingzhu bit the first one.
Almond and peanut.
"Hey, the first one is mince filling." Guo Mingzhu smiled and said to Gong Liang, "Old Gong, do you remember, the last time we got together to eat this kind of Sixi dumplings was when you were
Birthday."
"You were greedy for meat and wanted to eat mince stuffing, and Zheng Da wanted to eat mint stuffing. You two each ate three big bowls, but you ate a bunch of mint stuffing and he ate a bunch of meat stuffing. Huang Shengli laughed so hard
I almost choked on the rice dumpling and was sent to the hospital.”
"So many years have passed and all the children in our family have grown up. Except for Siqin, none of them are married." Guo Mingzhu said and looked at Gong Baozhu.
Gong Baozhu:......?
Mom, on this occasion, do you also want to imitate Uncle Zheng in urging marriage?
What a mistake. If I had known earlier, I would have asked my brother to take time off from work and come over for dinner.
Gong Liang smiled and said nothing. He scooped up the dumpling and took a bite. It was stuffed with meat.
Gong Liang was stunned.
He didn't think much about it at first, but when he took a bite of the dumpling and his tongue touched the salty meat filling, he seemed to suddenly remember a lot.
Memories, bonds, and youth seemed to be attached to the dumplings, sliding down the esophagus and into the stomach, spreading throughout the body, and finally gathered in his mind in the form of memory fragments.
Gong Liang felt that he seemed to be a little too sentimental recently. Is it because he met Wang Gensheng? He started to think about the past every now and then.
When Qin Huai saw Gong Liang's expression stagnant, he knew there was something going on. He quickly moved closer to Zheng Siyuan and whispered, asking Zheng Siyuan to convey his words to Zheng Da.
Zheng Siyuan turned to his father and whispered: "Dad, Qin Huai asked me to ask you when will the flower pot lantern buns be served? He just ate two glutinous rice balls and is almost full."
Zheng Da was stunned.
It was a mistake. I only thought about making the Clipper Flower Palace Lantern Bag shine at the end, forgetting that everyone has a limited appetite.
Zheng Da looked at the people at the table who were eating rice dumplings except Huang Anyao, and instantly realized the seriousness of the matter.
The glutinous rice balls don't taste like anything, but they are actually very filling. You'll feel full without even realizing it if you eat them one by one.
Zheng Da quickly shouted: "There is still one snack left. I almost forgot. I'm going to take a look now."
Huang Shengli:?
Zheng Da rushed into the kitchen and took out the steamer without having time to put it on the plate. Fortunately, the dining table was big enough so that he could place the steamer in the middle.
Uncover.
I saw a flash of white light, and a golden light shot out from the steamer, making everyone unable to open their eyes. A familiar and exciting accompaniment came to my ears. After listening carefully, it turned out to be the BGM of the Chinese Little Master, The Great Wall!
At the same time, a black and bold subtitle popped up under the steamer.
Clamp flower palace lantern bag!
The above is the picture in Zheng Da's imagination.
I think back then our Master Zheng also watched The Little Master of China and watched it with his son and daughter.
The actual scene is that as soon as Zheng Daya opened the cover, Huang Anyao and Gong Baozhu immediately let out unheard-of "Wow" sounds in unison.
The sound is super loud.
The Clamp Flower Palace Lantern Bag in the steamer is indeed worthy of such praise.
The palace lantern bag with tongs is a dazzling dish. It’s difficult to taste like a flower, but it can really taste like a flower in terms of shape.
The shape of the pliers bag is relatively uniform and fixed, but that doesn't mean it can't be changed at all.
As long as it's boring enough, as long as the chef has enough time, and as long as the chef wants to show off enough, the lines on the lace can be numerous and complex enough, and the extra preserved fruits used for decoration can be carved first and then embellished.
There are eight laces in the tongs palace lantern package, which cannot be moved. However, you can add a little extra small patterns on the edges of the lace, as long as they are invisible when viewed from a distance and startling when viewed up close.
Zheng Daquan added.
He spent the whole morning carefully carving the flower-clamped palace lantern bag. It can be said that he added everything that could be added. If you add more, it would no longer be a flower-clamped palace lantern bag.
Therefore, the flower-clamped palace lantern bag, which should appear unremarkable at first glance, but whose complexity can only be seen upon closer inspection, is already very complicated at first glance.
Huang Shengli was shocked.
He had been cooking this morning, and he only knew that Zheng Da was pouring out the palace lantern bag with tongs on the side. He didn't know what exactly Zheng Da was pouring out.
Huang Shengli looked at Zheng Da with a look in his eyes: Are you going to participate in the selection of the next celebrity chef list?
You have to practice hard to make noodles and fruit, so why don’t you use the flower pliers palace lantern bag to practice your skills first?
Zheng Da simply lifted the Clipper Palace Lantern Bag to a height that did not belong to it.
Huang Shengli was stunned, Gong Liang was dumbfounded, and even Qin Huai was a little dumbfounded.
Qin Huai had seen the previous version of the Clamp Flower Palace Lantern Bag.
How should I put it, the version update is a bit big.
People as old as Qin Huai were a little worried that Zheng Da would use too much force and fail the task that could have been completed.
Gong Liang wouldn't be able to recognize this flower-clamped palace lantern bag, right?
Qin Huai glanced at Gong Liang quietly and found that Gong Liang was completely stunned, as if he had seen something incredible.
Zheng Da is very satisfied with everyone's response. This is the feedback he, Master Zheng, should get!
I saw Zheng Dali looking slightly satisfied and said: "It's been a long time since I've styled dim sum. It's rare for everyone to get together today. It's the first time that Xiao Qin comes to my house for dinner. Let's try my skills. Come and try my flower-clamped palace lantern bag.
How about."
"Don't be reluctant to eat it. Let me tell you, those dim sum that only have a good-looking shape are empty. Only good-looking dim sum can be good when it tastes good."
Zheng Da's words brought the dazed Gong Liang back to his senses, and he subconsciously cheered: "If this is just a small test, there won't be much edible snacks these days. Zheng Da, you kid has been hiding it all these years. It's so good."
You don’t even make snacks. Why, are you afraid that I’ll pester you to cook every day?”
Zheng Da almost couldn't help but laugh out loud: "It's all there. I know it so much that I didn't think of it in the past few years."
Zheng Siyuan:……
With a speechless expression, Zheng Siyuan picked up a palace lantern bag with clamps and put it in his hand to examine it carefully. He found that he really couldn't find any technical problems, nor could he find any problems with the style.
Take a bite.
The sesame candy filling is sweet and not greasy. They are both filled with sesame candy. The filling of Qianhua Palace Lantern Bun is different from the filling of Sixi Rice Balls. The sweetness will be slightly weaker and it goes better with the soft dough.
Not to mention the bun skin, which is soft and full of wheat flavor. It is not slightly hard like normal dim sum with complex shapes. It is a very normal and delicious bun skin.
This is the embodiment of the pastry chef's craftsmanship.
Many times, for the sake of appearance, some pastry chefs will choose to sacrifice the taste to achieve perfection in appearance, which is the so-called beauty or not.
The lantern buns made by Zheng Da today are undoubtedly beautiful and delicious.
"Qin Huai, what do you think my dad thinks? If he had made these snacks earlier, he would have become a master of Baiyan snacks. If he could spend half of his efforts on making the lantern buns today on the mince fillings, he would have done it.
I don’t know how to make mint filling with melon seeds and peanuts.” Zheng Siyuan complained while eating.
Qin Huai said that it was different. Pretending once is pure pretense, and you have to practice pretending every day.
Qin Huai opened his mouth and was about to make up some lie when the game prompt sounded in his mind.
"Ding, congratulations to the player for completing the side mission [Gong Liang's Desire] and receiving the mission reward: [Gong Liang's Memory], [Gong Liang's Affirmation]."
Qin Huai looked at Gong Liang.
Gong Liang has already taken his first bite of the bun.
Looking at his posture, I almost shed tears.
Our Mr. Gong is also a sweetheart.
Chapter completed!
