Shen Yue checked the dishes and started the cooking demonstration.
Feng Jin pulled Uncle Chen and quickly gave up his seat, staring at it intently, fearing that he would miss any step.
Shen Yue directly used two stoves. The ancient medical family advocated dietary therapy and health preservation. She was familiar with medicinal foods and the order of portions.
Xiaowen is very discerning. Whatever ingredients and medicinal materials she wants can be handed to her as soon as possible, and the age of the medicinal materials is also just right.
This also greatly improved her cooking speed, and soon the dishes were flowing out from the kitchen.
It wasn't until the last medicated meal was demonstrated that Shen Yue breathed a sigh of relief.
Feng Jin immediately stepped forward, "Ms. Shen's cooking techniques are excellent, and the combination of ingredients and medicinal materials is exquisite."
The corners of Shen Yue's eyes twitched, this Feng Jin must be a bit too lazy.
But she was afraid that the two of them didn't see clearly, so she asked again, "There are twelve dishes in the beauty and beauty series of medicated meals, six soups, and three snacks. I demonstrated them all, but is there any step that I didn't understand clearly?"
Uncle Chen didn't like to talk to others very much, so he pursed his lips and touched Feng Jin with his elbow.
Feng Jin scratched his head and stepped forward, "Miss Shen, I do have some questions. I wonder if the white jade snow mountain soup was added with Angelica dahurica or Atractylodes?"
"Baizhi." Shen Yue had already caught a glimpse of the little moves between the two. Atractylodes and Angelica had similar effects, but their appearance was very different. She didn't believe that Feng Jin didn't notice it.
Is this here to test her?
"Atractylodes and Angelica dahurica both remove dampness and eliminate wind, so why not use Atractylodes?" Uncle Chen, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.
"Atractylodes itself has a slightly bitter taste. This is one reason. Secondly, Atractylodes is strong and not suitable for women with delicate stomachs. Thirdly..."
Shen Yue paused for a moment, not knowing whether to say anything.
As far as she knows, there are very few wild Atractylodes, and most of them are cultivated. The growth of Atractylodes requires a lot of fertilizers, and the fertilizers in ancient times were all...
After thinking for a moment, she decided to change her explanation, "Atractylodes has a darker color. If it is put into soup, it may affect the appearance. It is better to use Angelica dahurica."
"Miss Shen has extensive knowledge of medicinal materials, but it's time for us to learn more."
Uncle Chen opened his mouth and then asked Shen Yue several questions in succession as if he had no scruples.
Shen Yue answered them one by one with a smile, without hiding anything.
By teaching them earlier, she would be free to do other things.
After Uncle Chen and Feng Jingang finished asking, the menus from the front office clerk were handed down to the back kitchen one by one. The two of them stood in front of the stove and started busy without delaying.
There are many people ordering the whitening and beautifying series, and the methods are more sophisticated, so Uncle Chen volunteered.
Shen Yue watched from the sidelines. Although Uncle Chen was steady and mature, he could easily overlook details.
Especially the last spoonful of medicinal wine sprayed when it comes out of the pot, Uncle Chen always inevitably scoops out the medicinal ingredients inside.
Medicinal wine is meant to contain the essence of medicinal effects. If it contains medicinal materials, it will inevitably have the unique bitter taste of the medicinal materials themselves.
Shen Yue called Xiao Wen and put a piece of gauze on the pot of medicinal wine, so as to effectively avoid scooping out the medicinal materials.
Uncle Chen caught a glimpse of this scene and laughed a little awkwardly, but he didn't say anything more, but the movements in his hands became more and more precise.
Feng Jin's voice disappeared for a while, and Shen Yue raised her eyes.
Feng Jin, who was usually not upright, had a serious face at this time, and the details of the order of each medicinal dish were exactly the same, which made her take a second look.
Feng Jin is responsible for two series: expelling cold and removing dampness, and replenishing qi and blood.
Feeling Shen Yue's gaze, the spoon in his hand tightened involuntarily.
This was the second time he showed off his cooking skills in front of Miss Shen. He couldn't make the same mistake as before, he had to be very energetic!
Stir-fry three pieces of Angelica dahurica and three pieces of lettuce until they change color, take them out, pour them in cold water, and stir-fry them into the gravy.
Strictly following the steps step by step, sweat rolled down his forehead and fell under his collar. Feng Jin swallowed.
The last step is to skim off the floating medicinal materials with an iron spoon, scoop up a spoonful of medicinal wine, and pour it down a circle along the edge of the pot. Instantly, the aroma of lettuce mixed with Angelica dahurica comes to your face.
Feng Jin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
No shame, no shame.
Feng Jin glanced at Shen Yue, happened to meet Shen Yue's eyes, and immediately looked away. The second master looked at him and was really stressed.
Shen Yue couldn't help but find it a little funny when she saw Feng Jin being so nervous. How could he be as nervous about cooking as he was taking an exam?
Before Feng Jin could catch his breath, a slender hand was placed on his shoulder and he patted him.
"That's right, all the order and portions are in place. The guests in the front hall and two compartments still have two herbal dishes that haven't been cooked yet. Work harder." Shen Yue looked at Feng Jin with a smile and patted him on the shoulder to encourage him. .
Feng Jin was about to cry, but he remembered what the second young master said. If Miss Shen was dissatisfied, she would be sent directly to the black kiln to dig for medicine.
That dark kiln was not a place for human beings. Miss Shen looked at him like this, and he was afraid that he would do something wrong and be betrayed.
But Shen Yue couldn't hear the voice in his heart, otherwise she would have to ask Cui Sheng clearly, why did she betray people so casually?
Although Feng Jin was nervous, he was not slow in cooking. The medicinal food in the two rooms was served in less than half a quarter of an hour.
Shen Yue saw that the kitchen was basically familiar with the dishes, so she took off her apron and prepared to go to the front hall to have a look.
Before I even stepped out of the kitchen, I ran into a waiter who was rushing over.
"No, no, no, second master, go and have a look. There is a little guest in the front hall who got stuck while drinking porridge, and his face turned purple from holding it in. Please go and have a look."
When Shen Yue heard this, she didn't even have time to pick up her backpack, so she asked the waiter to tell her the room number, gathered her inner strength, and rushed straight over.
Having a foreign object stuck is no joke. Failure to treat it promptly can cost lives.
The guy behind him was jogging and couldn't keep up with Shen Yue's footsteps.
Shen Yue went straight to Box 3 on the second floor. When she was going up the last staircase, she was almost knocked over by an old woman who was running towards her. Fortunately, she reacted in time and dodged.
"You don't have eyes." The old woman looked panicked, cursed and walked straight out of Suyuanzhai.
Shen Yue frowned slightly, but she had no time to argue with her anymore. Uncle Yuan's anxious voice came, and she accelerated her steps.
"Spread out some and let the air circulate."
The box door was surrounded by people, and no one moved no matter what Uncle Yuan said. They were all waiting at the door to watch the excitement.
There was still half a bowl of loquat and red date porridge left on the table. The woman cried and slapped the child on the back, hoping that he would cough up the foreign matter. "Xiao Wu, please cough a few times quickly, don't scare mother."
The woman burst into tears, and the child in her arms had a small face that was bruised from the pain. The veins on the small face popped out. If he couldn't breathe again, he would really...
Everyone was sighing, but no one dared to step forward.
"Get out of the way! Can you help me if you're all stuck here?" The voice was slightly impatient but filled with unquestionable momentum, and everyone moved out of the way.
When people walked in, they saw that it was a little girl! They were frightened by a half-grown girl.
At that moment, some people were dissatisfied and took a step forward to block the door. "How can you, a yellow-haired girl, help? Where is the coolness and where can I stay..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a sharp pain in his waist, and the man blocking the road screamed and took a few steps back.
Seeing this, the rest of the people did not dare to watch the fun anymore and took a step back.
Without the gossiping crowd in the way, Shen Yue rushed to the woman, took the child from her arms, and prepared to rescue her.
The child in the woman's hand was snatched away, and she subconsciously grabbed Xiaohu's hand to snatch it back. She would not let anyone harm her child!
