Jing Lan rolled up her sleeves and went to cook her specialty dishes, accompanied by "Second General Heng Ha".

Tao Yuehua had to follow her to watch her cook, while Baiju was ordered not to leave Jinglan's side.

Even Zhao Siniang, who helped to light the fire, was curious about what Jing Lan's specialty dishes are like, and can they serve guests?

When Jing Lan was in middle school, every time her parents cooked, as long as she was not busy, she would go to the kitchen to help.Later, her parents asked her to cook a few home-cooked dishes. At first she couldn't do it well, but later she cooked a lot, and she was able to serve it on the dining table to entertain classmates, relatives and friends who came to play at home.

So Jing Lan is very familiar with the two dishes of bear's paw tofu and fish-flavored shredded pork.

She first cut two pieces of tofu in half, and then cut them into large pieces about one centimeter thick.

Then pour oil into the iron pan, and when the oil temperature rises, ask Zhao Siniang to put less firewood, lest the fire is too high and the oil temperature is too high, and the tofu put in the oil pan will be fried in a while.

Jing Lan picked up large slices of tofu with chopsticks and fried them in the oil pan, turning them from time to time.

When the tofu in the oil pan is deep-fried until it turns yellow on both sides, take it out and put it in the bamboo shauke to drain the oil.

Then Jing Lan prepared to make the ingredients of bear's paw tofu, ginger, green onion, star anise, autumn oil, soybean paste, sugar and so on.

The bear's paw tofu she made is salty and delicious, which is suitable for the taste of people in the south of the Yangtze River.

Then she shredded the tenderloin, marinated it with a little salt and cooking wine, then wrapped it in the sauce, and chopped the prepared ingredients ginger, garlic, leek, mushroom, and red pepper, and finally prepared a sweet and sour sauce .In fact, the most important thing to make fish-flavored shredded pork is the sweet and sour sauce. It depends on whether the fish-flavored shredded pork is delicious or not.

Tao Yuehua looked at it from the side and praised Jing Lan's ability, she was a good cook at first glance.

Even Zhao Siniang said that she didn't know that Jinglan still had this kind of craftsmanship. Seeing that Jinglan cooks dishes in an orderly manner, it can be seen that she cooks a lot when she is at home.

It's just that she still feels puzzled, why is there no fish in Jinglan's fish-flavored shredded pork?

Jing Lan laughed when she heard this. She didn't know how to explain it to Zhao Siniang, because many people who had never heard of it and had never eaten fish-flavored shredded pork would ask like Zhao Siniang.

After thinking about it, she could only explain in this way: "It is said that when a woman cooks fish, she often prepares such seasonings. One day, she cooked a fish and there is still a lot of seasonings left. When cooking the next day, Seeing that there were still so many seasonings, she thought it would be a pity to throw them away. It would be better to fry the shredded pork with the fish seasonings made yesterday. So she used all the seasonings left over from yesterday's fish cooking. After frying this After serving shredded pork, she was worried that the taste would not be good. It happened that her husband came home and was hungry, so she picked up the chopsticks and ate this dish. After eating it, she praised it as delicious. Since then, the family has often fried this dish. As time goes by, this dish spreads, so later generations called this dish fish-flavored shredded pork."

When she said this, not only Zhao Siniang suddenly realized, but others, such as Tao Yuehua and Bai Ju, also understood why this dish was called Yuxiang pork shreds because there was no fish in it.

Tao Yuehua clapped her hands repeatedly and said, "Interesting! Interesting!"

After Jing Lan explained to them the origin of the name of the fish-flavored shredded pork dish, she began to cook in earnest.

She first made bear paw tofu. Put a little oil in an iron pan, add ginger star anise and scallion and fry for a while. Ask Zhao Siniang to take out a piece of firewood and turn the fire into a small fire to cook the soup.

When the soup is thicker, add fried tofu cubes that are golden on both sides, cover the pot, and simmer for a while. When the tofu absorbs the soup, thicken it and remove it from the pot. Finally, surround it with boiled cabbage.

She served two servings of bear paw tofu in two sweet white porcelain round plates.

Pieces of golden yellow tofu covered with a layer of light soy sauce red sauce are placed on the white disk, and green cabbage is decorated on the side. Not to mention eating, it looks good just by looking at it, which makes people look at it Very appetizing.

"Good, good, good." Tao Yuehua said three good words, "Good craftsmanship! I want to eat it just looking at it. I think it must be more delicious than real bear paws."

The chef of the Tao family is a master chef who can make bear paws. Every autumn and winter, he would make braised bear paws for the Tao family. That's why Tao Yuehua said so.After hearing this, Jing Lan felt that she wanted to eat braised bear's paw.Because before wearing it, no matter what kind of bear it is, it is a national protected animal, and the dish of braised bear paw is basically a legendary dish.Only in this era, rich households can eat real bear's paws.However, remembering how bloody it was to get bear paws, she gave up the idea of ​​eating braised bear paws, and persuaded Tao Yuehua: "Girl, you think this bear paw tofu is delicious, so eat this instead of bear paws. "

Tao Yuehua readily agreed: "Okay, if Alan makes me this bear's paw tofu every now and then, I won't eat bear's paw."

Jing Lan said: "Bear's paw tofu, your cook can also make it."

Tao Yuehua: "I have eaten this dish made by my cook, but I think yours looks better and smells better."

"Then when I go to your house with my eldest lady, I will teach your cook to make these two dishes. Can't you eat them often?" Jing Lan asked Bai Ju to wash the pot, and looked at it. She cleaned the pot and said to Tao Yuehua.

But Tao Yuehua said: "You are so busy now, how can you go to my house with free time, I think, I want to eat in the future, so I'd better come to you to make it for me."

"..." Jing Lan was speechless, thinking that this young lady from the Tao family was really a real lady, knowing that she was very busy, she just wanted to come over for dinner and let herself cook.It's just that she came to look for her like this, Shen Wan might have lumps in her heart again.If she gets jealous, I can't bear it.

In fact, if Shen Wan wasn't so jealous, Jing Lan would still be friends with Tao Yuehua, because she is Jing Lan's peer, with a lively temper, straightforward speech, and not stingy.

But after having such a close relationship with Shen Wan, Shen Wan made it clear that she didn't like Jing Lan's contact with young and beautiful girls. Jing Lan also paid attention to this aspect and didn't want to make Shen Wan angry. Pregnant.

Jing Lan thought, how on earth should I tell Tao Yuehua not to come to her frequently?

But after thinking about it, she only thought that she shouldn't cook her special dishes for Tao Yuehua, then she wouldn't pester herself to eat her own dishes often.

Hey, it's really hard to ride a tiger now, no matter what, Shen Wan is still looking forward to eating her specialty dishes, so let's cook the dishes well today.As for the future, when Tao Yuehua came and got busy, it was impossible for her to come back and cook for her.

By the way, why don't I pass this craft on to Zhao Siniang, as long as Zhao Siniang knows how to make it, and Tao Yuehua comes, just ask Zhao Siniang to make it for her to eat.

In that way, he avoided suspicion and entertained Tao Yuehua, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?

Jing Lan was in a good mood because she had thought of this method. Next, she fried the shredded fish-flavored pork to a good level, frying the shredded fish-flavored pork until it looked delicious, fragrant and delicious.

After putting the fish-flavored shredded pork on a plate, Tao Yuehua's eyes almost fell into the plate, she leaned over to take a deep breath, and praised Jing Lan's fish-flavored shredded pork, which is also delicious and looks great .

Jing Lan untied her apron, went to wash her hands, asked Zhao Siniang to put the food in a food box, and quickly brought it to the hall behind to put it on the table. She said that these two dishes are delicious when they are hot.

Just at this time, the table that Zhao Siniang ordered at the best restaurant in Jinhe Town also arrived.

Several servants came from the restaurant, and they came to the Shen family's old house with big food boxes.

Ping An and Ping Fu helped carry these loads of food and wine to Sanjin's house and put down the big food box.

Jing Lan led the green bamboo and the platycodon and white chrysanthemum back and forth several times before carrying these food boxes into the hall where the embroidery building is located.

The large black lacquered round table in the hall was also temporarily found and placed, and it was matched with ten drum stools with openwork carvings of flowers and birds of the same color.

The big black lacquered round table was full of dishes, and the restaurant also sent wine and rose wine, because Zhao Siniang said that her eldest lady wanted to entertain female guests, so the shopkeeper of the restaurant paired them with sweet wine suitable for women.

Hot dishes, cold dishes, fruit soups, all kinds of tables were set up, plus two special dishes made by Jing Lan, the big round table was full.

Shen Wan asked Fang and the others to eat while it was hot, and Jing Lan and a few maidservants stood by and waited on them, pouring wine and rice for them from time to time.

Tao Yuehua picked up the chopsticks and just put the two special dishes made by Jing Lan in front of her.

As soon as she ate it, she immediately praised the deliciousness, saying that it was exactly as she thought, with a good taste and taste, and she said that she could eat three bowls of rice today.

As soon as Fang heard this, she asked her not to overeat, saying that she was usually a picky eater, and once she sat at the dining table, she could only eat half of a small bowl of rice.

"Three bowls are never allowed to be eaten, only two bowls are allowed. It's not fun to eat too much." She kicked her daughter and said.

Tao Yuehua giggled, and asked her mother, sister-in-law and others to try the two special dishes made by Jinglan. She said that the fish-flavored shredded pork was especially delicious, and it went well with rice.

After hearing this, Fang and the others went to pick up Jinglan's two special dishes with a smile on their faces. After tasting them, they were full of praise for Jinglan's craftsmanship.

Shen Wan was also very happy to see that Fang Shi and the others praised Jing Lan so much. After she picked up the two dishes made by Jing Lan with her chopsticks, she thought that Fang Shi and the others had not exaggerated. It is complete, and it can be regarded as the top grade in home cooking.

"Very good, Alan, the two special dishes you cooked are really outstanding, and I have a reward here." Shen Wan looked at Jing Lan, her eyes filled with admiration.After finishing speaking, Shen Wan took off a golden silk beaded bracelet on her wrist and asked Jing Lan to hold it.

Shen Wan bought this gold silk beaded bracelet when she visited Tao Yuanxin at Tao's house, and also bought a set of gold noodles.

Jing Lan knew that Shen Wan now only had such a set of jewelry, if she was rewarded with a golden silk beaded bracelet, then her other bracelet would be out of order.

Therefore, she resolutely refused: "Girl, it is the duty of slaves to do these things, why should they be rewarded? Girl, please take it back."

Shen Wan insisted: "Alan, accept it, you deserve this reward."

Jing Lan thought for a while, and went forward to accept Shen Wan's reward, she thought, it would be the same to return it to Shen Wan after Fang and others left.

Unexpectedly, when she received Shen Wan's reward, Fang and the others also took off the bracelets or rings on their wrists one after another, or the hairpins on their heads to give to Jing Lan.

Jing Lan verbally declined a few words, but finally accepted, and thanked Fang and the others.

The green bamboo, platycodon, and white chrysanthemums at the side were also very envious when they saw that Jinglan had received so many rewards.

Jing Lan herself reckoned that even if she returned the golden silk beaded bracelet that Shen Wan gave her, the gold jewelry that Fang and the others gave her would probably be worth more than a hundred taels of silver.

So, today she made a lot of money.
