117 Chapter 117
She told Fan Xinghai, "I am the only one in this small shop, and I'm not too busy to cook immediately. My child is always making trouble. Could Li Shusheng lend me your junior brother and let him play with my child for a while?"
Although this requirement is not too much, it is difficult to make decisions for others. Li Zhaogui looked at his junior brother with a questioning look.
Fan Xinghai nodded, and Li Zhaogui said, "Young brother, go."
"yes."
Liu Ruyue took Fan Xinghai into the store, and Li Zhaogui started to select people from the crowd to go in for dinner together...
Everyone didn't know what delicious food was in Liu Ruyue's restaurant. Except for the wine-loving people, the others just wanted to meet couplets or watch the fun.
The ingredients were prepared by Liu Ruyue long ago. After entering the kitchen, she brought out the twelve dishes after just half an hour.
Li Zhaogui also knew what Liu Ruyue had to do with such a gimmick today, so the table she chose was the one next to the door.
Everyone was not too looking forward to the dishes from this small restaurant, but she could still make a flower.
There are no flowers, but the aroma of the vegetables that float out is no less light than that of the flowers.
"What kind of dish is this? Why does it smell so fragrant?"
"Why is there a circle of green orange slices in that fish?"
"That's not green orange slices, it's lemon slices."
"Hey~, lemons are so sour, can they be eaten?"
The man with a glossy face looked around and looked into the strange and buzzing man. He tilted his lips and put his fan together and knocked it on the palm of his hand.
Hum, "That's it? It smells fragrant, but carvings and placing dishes. But at best, it's just the best way to cook home-cooked side dishes."
"But I have never seen several dishes in the top ten restaurants in Beijing."
The man with a glossy face all cared about it, "Who knows whether she is so delicious or not, it just attracts attention."
At this time, Liu Ruyue walked out with a tray, and the two dishes on it attracted everyone's attention.
A person with good eyes could tell at a glance, "What is that? A round one, said it was a cake, but it was so thick, with matcha powder sprinkled on it."
A scholar also wondered, "We have always used tea to drink, how can she use it to cook? It tastes delicious if it is slightly astringent and eaten in the dish?"
"These are all messy combinations. In order to gain a reputation in Beijing, it's really a mess. So many good ingredients have been wasted." After following the greasy scholar, a slightly fat scholar was indignant.
The discussions outside the door did not affect the good mood of everyone in the store.
For scholars at Xinquan Academy, today's couplets can be matched with each other before Xuanwen Academy, and they have won a great victory. They really don't care whether the food is delicious or not.
Li Zhaogui also came for the mellow jade liquid.
The dishes served on the table are indeed strange, but the boss lady said that the dishes were not served yet and could not be eaten. They were also staying on the table and enjoying the sour words of the people outside the door.
They criticized Shi Niang's restaurant just to prove that Xinquan Academy won the right match and did not make any profit?
So at this moment, Li Zhaogui was still in a good mood when he saw the strange food brought by the boss lady and asked curiously, "Tian Niang, what kind of dish is this?"
Liu Ruyue didn't dare to talk to the matcha cake. If she inhaled the matcha powder, it would be very uncomfortable.
He brought both desserts on the tray to the table and then smiled and introduced, "This paste is transparent with rose snow ear cake, which is also made of a thousand-layer cake, using horseshoe powder, rose petals, and fusion tremella."
Those who can study are not poor people who can’t get enough for three meals. Many of them have eaten the horse’s hoof cake. It’s easy to understand after she explains it.
Liu Ruyue pointed to the dessert they were most concerned about and explained, "This dish is a matcha layer cake. I made 21 layers, a layer of cream and a layer of cake crust, and iced it with ice. This dessert can be said to be the most energy-intensive dish in this table of dishes."
"These two desserts are eaten before meals. The matcha layer cake is sweeter than the rose snow-eared cake. I'll share it with you now."
Because the matcha layer cake has been frozen, it is no longer so soft, and it is also convenient for Liu Ruyue to cut into equal eight fan-shaped blocks.
It looks particularly beautiful from the side. A layer of green pie crust and a layer of white cream bring a great visual impact to people, making people's index fingers tremble.
Liu Ruyue put the cake on a plate and placed it in front of them one by one, "You try it, how does it taste."
What Li Zhaogui was most looking forward to was the drink, but at this moment, facing the cake with a milky aroma, the matcha smell couldn't help swallowing.
I picked up the small iron spoon and cut out a spoonful of cake from top to bottom. I felt it felt soft and melted in my mouth. The fresh matcha flavor powder diluted the sweetness of the fresh butter. The two flavors were mixed together, as if they were born with a pair, and this was a feast of taste buds.
"good!"
"tasty!"
"I have never eaten a pastry with such a taste, how can it be so delicious?"
"After sip, close your eyes, it seems like you are in the forest of early spring, with some coolness and sweetness, but it is not over."
Fan Xinghai couldn't help but praise, "It was like when he was outing, he accidentally swallowed the clouds after the rain in one bite."
Listening to the group of scholars in the house desperately praising this pastry that everyone looked down upon, the sweet-loving person couldn't help it, "Is it really that delicious? You are afraid of embarrassment and praise it on purpose."
"Senior Brother Li, can you please let me take a bite?"
"Senior Brother Chen, let me take a bite."
The two older brothers who were named were embarrassed to eat it themselves and put down the spoon.
"You can eat it by yourself."
"Make your own agitation."
Although he said this, Li Zhaogui also brought up the plate, "Boss, can I give the food to my junior brothers?"
Liu Ruyue turned her head and glanced at the eagerly anticipated scholars and nodded, "I just said that there are only eight people serving the table. There are only so many foods anyway. You can give it to others. But you can't serve them for the table."
Everyone looked at each other. There was such a shop that didn’t guarantee that the customers would be full?
But they thought about it, the owner of this small restaurant was supported by the owner, and these dishes looked very exquisite, and making ten tables every day was the limit.
If she meets a person with a big stomach, she will be unable to satisfy her.
"Okay." Li Zhaogui took out his plate and handed it to the junior brother who was the first to ask him for food. "You can divide it yourself, don't fight, it will lose the face of our Xinquan Academy."
"It's not true, senior brother, we are scholars, and it's impossible for us to do something that is insulting."
As soon as Li Zhaogui sat back on the table, he saw his junior brothers almost started fighting for a piece of cake.
