Food starts with Mapo Tofu

Chapter 843 Caramel Vanilla Egg Custard (ask for a monthly ticket)
While waiting for his own desserts to be made, Chen Nian planned to help Song Qingzhou, after all, being idle is idle.

But Song Qingzhou refused: "You don't need to help, I am too busy here, I would rather scold them than use you to work, because what you make is dim sum, and if you have the taste of vegetables in your hands, maybe you will Contamination on your dim sum, if you are doing a red case, then there must be no problem, even if you don't say it, I will call you.

But dim sum is different, whether it's ladies or your majesty, once the dim sum has other flavors, maybe you will be finished in the future, you know? "

In fact, Chen Nian didn't quite agree with this, because he knew how to wash his hands to get rid of the smell of vegetables on his hands.

But after thinking about it again, there are many rules in the palace and there are many people. Even if the emperor and those ladies can't eat it, it is inevitable that someone will hear some rumors adding fuel to the story.

This kind of thing is very subjective. Even if you can't eat it, you will feel uncomfortable. In the end, it is not a question of whether the food has other peculiar smells, but a question of rules.

It is about whether court servants like myself respect those in power.

"Ok."

"Be more careful in the future, and avoid many things."

"Master, I understand."

Finally, Chen Nian went to the yard to bask in the sun.

Thinking about what Song Qingzhou said just now, Chen Nian was also thinking about it.

This is probably the difference between a society ruled by law and a society ruled by man. Although there are classes in the society ruled by law in later generations, the relationship between superiors and subordinates has to be considered in many cases.

Even if sometimes I do some overreaching things, but at most it is dismissal, which will basically not affect future work.

But it is different in a society ruled by men.

If it was really like what Chen Nian said just now, once someone gossiped behind his back, it would cause those in power to resist him.

It would be the most ideal situation for him to be dismissed from office and expelled from the palace. If others really pursued him and punished him for a crime of disrespect, even if he didn't beheaded, he would definitely lose half his life.

"Well, forget it, just do what kind of thing in what kind of environment."

Chen Nian sighed.

However, he still reminded the father-in-law and the court lady who delivered the food: "Today there is still a dessert to be eaten at the end. Everyone, please help me to look at it and mention that there will be such a last one, and then wait until your majesty and empress hurry up." Send it up when you're done eating."

"Okay, got it, Mr. Chen."

Hearing this, Chen Nian smiled, feeling very comfortable in his heart.

In the past, I used to call others adults, but now it's my turn to be adults.

"Well, it's time to thank everyone." Chen Nian said to them with a smile.

And those maids and eunuchs are also quite comfortable. Firstly, Chen Nian's appearance is really pleasing, and secondly, Chen Nian is also polite to them.

Although other people in the imperial dining room would not speak harshly to them, and would greet them friendly when they met, no matter what era they were in, people judged by their faces.

As the dishes in the kitchen were sent out one by one, Chen Nian also brought the tableware to the ice cellar and began to make the final preparations.

After about an hour of refrigeration, the puddings were completely cooled and condensed.

Chen Nian took a plate with exquisite patterns, put the bowl of pudding on it, and lifted it up carefully. Soon the top turned caramel, and the pudding, which was light yellow underneath, stood in the bowl.

Gently shaking the plate, the Q bomb pudding trembled.

Then the aged took out the cream and dug it into an olive shape with a spoon and put it on top of the pudding, and finally put a small sprig of vanilla on the pudding as an embellishment.

A small part of the caramel that has not been completely condensed turns into sugar water and flows from the pudding. The color matching around the pudding is fresh, and it is very greasy and appetizing.

After aging, the puddings were put into lunch boxes one by one.

This lunch box is specially made by the palace for old age.

Usually this kind of lunch box is used to deliver ice to the empresses and emperors in summer, but now it is used to keep fresh and refrigerate for aging.

After all the lunch boxes were packed, Chen Nian called the maids and father-in-laws over and said: "Hold it a little more steadily, try not to tilt it, otherwise it will affect the perception.

I have put ice in it, and it can be stored for about half an hour in the current weather, and I would like to ask you to watch the time and serve it on the table. "

After giving instructions, everyone carried the food boxes and headed towards the various palaces.

This time it was Wang Jin who came to pick up the meal for the emperor, because it was a meal hand-picked by His Majesty, which was relatively important, so he had to deliver it himself.

When he came to the imperial study, Li Xu was resting here.

After the morning court this morning, he also called some ministers to discuss matters, but after talking for about half an hour, he asked them to go back to work first.

She just finished reviewing this pile of memorials.

Moreover, due to being too tired these days, coupled with the fact that the envoy of the Great Food Kingdom will be coming soon, and the weather feels a bit stuffy today, she has no appetite.

Even the previous meals were taken away after a few mouthfuls of chatting.

"Your Majesty, the snacks made by Chen Nian are here."

"Well, bring it up."

In fact, Li Xu doesn't really want to eat it anymore. Although she ordered Chen Nian to make dim sum yesterday, the dim sum that can be sent to the imperial dining room is either baked, fried or steamed.

But that kind of snack tastes sticky to the teeth without exception.

Even if it tastes good, it's the feeling that people will always resist when they are tired.

So Li Xu regretted it as soon as he finished speaking.

But after Wang Jin heard this, he had already put the food box on the table.

But when he opened the lid, Li Xu couldn't help but be attracted by the dessert.

At first glance, it doesn't appear to be made of flour or any other powder.

When Wang Jin picked it up, the dessert seemed to be still shaking.

Li Xu was a little surprised whether it was in good shape or in good condition.

"What is this?" Li Xu couldn't help asking.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the servant asked Chen Nian when he was picking it up. He said that this dessert is called caramel vanilla custard. It tastes light and cool. It is very suitable for eating after a summer meal."

Hearing this, Li Xu also became interested.

After all, she had never heard of the name of this dim sum before.

The only food I have ever seen in a similar state is Guiling Jelly, which is also made into jelly.

It's just that the turtle jelly itself is a bit bitter, and even if she eats it normally, she still feels unwell, and it is used for conditioning.

Smelling the faint milk scent, the faint caramel smell and the faint vanilla smell, she suddenly felt that she should try it.
