Ye Fuxun secretly ate the roast chicken in the window a long time ago. It was so delicious that she thought about it for many days after eating it.
Finally got a chance to hook up with Zhu Meiren.
Zhu Meiren looked at the cooking method she copied carefully, her eyes shining like stars: "Sister, the millet pepper and chili oil used in this dish are rarely used in daily cooking. My sister only uses it in some dietary anecdotes.
I’ve read it in miscellaneous books.”
The dishes of Yan State are mostly light, fresh and sweet, and they are not used to spicy food.
Because Zhu Meiren likes cooking, she has collected many miscellaneous books on cooking from various places since she was a child, and she has a wide range of knowledge.
She was full of interest in the recipes given by Ye Fuxun and eager to try them.
"It's just this pepper, what is it? My sister has never heard of it."
Ye Fuxun had already prepared: "Don't worry, sister, I have already prepared the peppercorns. Not only that, all the ingredients used are available. If my sister is interested, let's go and try it together?"
In the past few days, she was with Ah Qiu every day, and she didn't forget to roast chicken, and even asked Xiao Yu to collect the ingredients.
Among them, Zanthoxylum bungeanum has indeed never been used in dishes, but it is available in Yan State.
In the backyard of the Prince's Mansion, no one except her sister cared about her preferences, and they often discussed dishes with her, and even cooked with her.
The two of them went to Yongtan Temple together in a happy mood.
Because Ye Fuxun would research some dishes that would please the Queen Mother from time to time. As early as her first Jinsha Red Rice Sausage, Ji Yannuo had given an order that she could use the small kitchen of Yongtan Palace at any time.
.
The two of them were messing around in the small kitchen for a long time. Ye Fuxun looked at the freshly served roast chicken, his index finger ready to move.
Zhu Meiren thoughtfully served a small bowl of rice and prepared a small bowl of wolfberry rice soup: "Sister, roast chicken is best eaten with rice. If you feel spicy, you can also drink some wolfberry rice soup."
She just tried it when making roast chicken. It was numb, spicy and fresh, and the multiple textures amazed her taste buds.
As a person who loves cooking, she is very receptive to various flavors and fell in love with the novel taste of roast chicken almost at the first bite.
Although Ye Fuxun is from Cantonese and studied at Modern University in Chengdu, he likes the spiciness of Sichuan food very much and is not afraid of it at all.
However, she was very pleased with Zhu Meiren's thoughtfulness: "Sister, sit down quickly, let's eat together."
The two of them huffed and puffed and concentrated on eating, not even thinking about talking.
After a while, the two of them finished the small plate of roast chicken.
"You can't eat too much, otherwise you won't be able to eat anything for dinner." Ye Fuxun touched his belly and drank the remaining rice soup in one gulp, feeling extremely satisfied.
Zhu Meiren smiled with crooked eyebrows: "I listen to my sister. There are still three small portions of roast chicken. I can take it back to eat for dinner. If you want to eat it in the future, you can tell me at any time."
"There are three more?" Ye Fuxun's eyes lit up and he suppressed the greed in his stomach, "If not, my sister and I will each take one back for dinner. The remaining one will be in Yongtan Palace.
, If His Highness comes back for dinner, you can try it."
How could Zhu Meiren not be happy?
Some people liked to eat the dishes she cooked, but it was too late for her to be happy.
The two stood up and left the small kitchen. Ye Fuxun asked someone to ask. When he learned that Ji Yannuo had not returned home, he told the chef in the small kitchen to put the roast chicken away. If Ji Yannuo came back, he would ask if he would like to try it.
No.
On the way back to the backyard, Zhu Meiren remembered what she had said in the morning: "Sister, you will go to the Prince of Chu's Mansion to attend a fruit banquet the day after tomorrow. Do you have any plans to prepare fruit tea?"
"It seems that your Majesty didn't mention that you would make a special trip to prepare fruit tea?"
The fruit banquet is a banquet held by the Chu Palace every early summer in the past two years.
Invite people from various wealthy families to attend and taste the various teas and snacks made by the Chu Palace using seasonal fruits.
"My sister heard that the chefs of Prince Chu's palace use fruits to make tea and snacks, which is a specialty in the capital," Zhu Meiren beamed. "In order to exchange cooking skills, Princess Chu also specially welcomes people attending the banquet to bring novel refreshments."
Ye Fuxun suddenly realized: "Then the refreshments prepared in our Prince's Mansion should be prepared in the big kitchen?"
Zhu Meiren nodded and replied, "I heard it was like this last year."
Ye Fuxun saw Zhu Meiren's yearning look on her face: "Sister, do you like to make fruit tea?"
"I like it." Zhu Meiren said frankly, "Can I make two dishes for my sister to try tomorrow?"
"Okay!" Ye Fuxun always welcomes delicious food.
In Yongtan Palace, Ji Yannuo was thinking, looking at the roast chicken on the table with deep and inquiring eyes.
Eunuch Xu carefully looked at Ji Yannuo's expression and reported: "Your Highness, this dish was newly developed by Ye Liangdi and Zhu Meiren. The name of the dish is roast chicken."
The corners of Ji Yannuo's mouth twitched slightly, and it did sound like the name given by the woman.
When Eunuch Xu saw that Ji Yannuo had remained silent, he was not sure what he was thinking.
When His Highness came back, he asked about Ye Liangdi's situation. It seemed that he really cared about Ye Liangdi.
Because His Highness's return and Ye Liangdi's departure were just a matter of front and back, when he just asked His Highness if he wanted to invite Ye Liangdi back, His Highness's expression was clearly moved, but he said, "No need."
You must say that His Highness was unhappy with Ye Liangdi, but he didn't even have time to change his clothes, so he had the roast chicken prepared by Ye Liangdi brought to him, and also asked him to report Ye Liangdi's movements in detail.
Your Highness looked at it, why was it so awkward?
Eunuch Xu thought with confusion.
Ji Yannuo has already picked up the chopsticks and tastes the roast chicken.
But within a short time, the plate was gone: "Let me prepare another one for dinner."
This sentence startled Eunuch Xu who was thinking hard. When he raised his eyes, he was startled again.
My dear!
When did His Highness finish eating all the dishes?
He immediately frowned: "Your Highness, Ye Liangdi and Zhu Meiren cooked this dish together. The cook in our small kitchen doesn't know how to cook it."
Ji Yannuo was not happy, so he narrowed his eyes and said, "Is this very difficult?"
Eunuch Xu was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly: "It's not difficult! I will prepare now."
Eunuch Xu had no choice but to go to Yunjin Pavilion.
Ye Fuxun heard that Ji Yannuo wanted to eat roast chicken. Although he was a little reluctant to give it up, he still donated the remaining portion of roast chicken in his pocket.
He also gave Xu An the recipe for roasting chicken and said, "If the cook doesn't understand anything when making this dish, you can ask Zhu Meiren for advice."
Xu An was naturally happy and agreed and went back to resume his life.
Another day passed.
This day is the day to attend the fruit banquet at Prince Chu’s Mansion.
In addition to the crown prince and the crown prince's concubine, the people attending the banquet in the Prince's Mansion also had a special invitation for Ye Fuxun.
Naturally, this made Luo Liangdi and other concubines of the same status dissatisfied.
