[Comprehensive] The days when I pretended to be a meow in the Forbidden City
Chapter 160 Northern Song Dynasty
"This king is here to clear up Lord Xia Lang's doubts."
Zhao Yuanyan's expression was light, and he stood facing the wind with his sleeves folded, graceful and graceful.
Xia Anran was slightly taken aback, although he didn't understand why the Eighth Prince suddenly came to him now, and pretended to give him an explanation, but because the royal family of the Song Dynasty often had inexplicable operations, he still showed He understood, and invited people into the room to sit down, and at the same time he put down the items he had bought.
Because the servants had been dismissed, Xia Anran could only treat the guests in person, but first the two encountered a problem.
The two looked at each other, there was a tea set and a small water stove on the table, but no one poured tea.
Xia Anran hasn't learned how to order tea in the Song Dynasty, and he doesn't intend to make a fool of himself in front of others. Bai Jinxi usually makes tea... Cough, now this disadvantage is placed in front of him.
But the Eight Sage King didn't seem to think that Xia Anran wouldn't pour tea, seeing that he didn't make a move, so he sighed secretly in his heart, only thought that he was somewhat resentful, so he couldn't say it clearly, so he used this action to hint.
It is true that if Xia Anran is really innocent, in this situation, he naturally believes in today's judgment in his heart - he is his father, but he is unwilling to recognize him.
He thought of the last few sentences of the book written by Xia Anran, especially one of the lines "People's hearts are not like wine in a mirror, who can guess right from wrong." When writing this book, Xia Anran hadn't expected to encounter this situation. In retrospect, there is a sense of fate.
In the Song Dynasty, there were many temperamental literati and scholars, so a nail that didn't hurt or itch was really nothing, Zhao Yuanyan just looked at Xia Anran and said word by word.
"The emperor is indeed the son of the former emperor. This king did exchange his third son with the crown prince. But the third son of this king is still in good health, and he is indeed not a lord."
After he said such seemingly ruthless words, his eyes swept across Xia Anran's face sharply. He thought that young people would change color somewhat when faced with such ruthless and even harsh words. After thinking for a while in silence, he smiled sharply, "It seems that His Majesty has found conclusive evidence and placed it in front of you, proving that you are indeed not his biological father?"
The Eighth Prince didn't move at all, he lowered his eyes slightly, but reached out for the tea pot, and ordered tea for the two of them himself, this way of avoiding the problem is exactly the same.
Xia Anran thought so.
Seeing the man's attitude, he didn't ask any more questions, but just admired the man's every move with his eyes.With the same posture range, the middle-aged man Zhao Yuanyan did it completely differently from the young Zhao Zhen, and his every move was slow and artistic.
Zhao Zhen's movements were somewhat deliberate, but this man was as unrestrained and unrestrained as water.
Any demeanor that is deliberately described by art is different, but the same goal is that beginners are always entangled in posture and pay attention to textbook-like standards, while people who can be called everyone integrate movements into their posture. In the middle, every move has its own rules.
Xia Anran only admired it for a moment, but his mind was running rapidly.
It was within his expectation that the emperor could find evidence. Many things would not stand up to investigation, not to mention that the will of the world predestined to leave clues in the case of replacing the civet cat with the prince, and it was also preordained that Renzong would know all this in advance.
But why did the Eight Sage Kings come to the door?
He is now under house arrest, and there must be interception of communication information, and he frequently changes people every day, so he went out this morning. It is by no means nervous to the extent that it must be said clearly today.
In other words, the Eighth Prince chose to come in this situation where he could come or not.
The Eighth Prince should be very clear about Xia Anran's situation. Although he has internal strength, he can't mobilize it, not to mention flying over the wall. The only people he knows in the arena are Sikong Zhaixing and Lu Xiaofeng, and these two are also on the side of the government.
Therefore, to guard against him, it is not necessary for the Eighth Prince to sit in charge in person.
Then the conclusion is very simple.
Xia Anran's gaze slowly turned to the direction of the gate.
Since it was not to prevent him from escaping, it should be to prevent someone from breaking in.
And would forcefully barge into the mansion arranged for him to live by the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, there is only one person in the world, who can have this power, and there is a need for it-the Queen Mother.
It is very easy for the Queen Mother to break in.
She is the prime minister in the harem, and she is also responsible for educating the emperor. At that time, she only needs to make an excuse to hear that the emperor has raised an unknown person outside, and then she can send someone to investigate. Or there is a reason to take him back with his face covered, and it's a family matter. At this time, if the people don't report the case, the officials will ignore it. If no one reports the case for him, even if the governor of Kaifeng is Bao Zheng, he can't control it. .
But the premise of all this is that the Eight Sage Kings are not here.
The Eight Sage Kings hold a tile-faced golden mace in their hands, which can be used to attack the emperor and the ministers. He has the power to behead first and then play. At that time, Renzong was still young, and Empress Liu was always smart, so it was reasonable for Zhenzong to leave an imperial order to his younger brother.
Regardless of whether it exists or not, it seems that there is no such thing in history, but even if there is no such thing, Empress Liu feels that there is.
If the Eight Worthy King, who is the biological father of the emperor, stayed here, even if he was aloof from the court and kept a low profile, naturally no one would dare to break in, and no one would dare to take Xia Anran away when he broke in.
The situation has come to such a point?
He turned his eyes slightly, and immediately realized that the emperor might have obtained decisive evidence, but didn't Bao Zheng just come back today?How did you get evidence that could poke Empress Liu's sore feet?move so fast...
It's normal when you think about it carefully, after all, Bai Jinxi is involved in this world, and Bai Er Shao might have done it!
Just when he was feeling complacent, a probing look suddenly caught his eye. It was Zhao Yuanyan who was making tea, and Xia Anran immediately put away his small expression and became very obedient, but...
"It's late." Zhao Yuanyan snorted softly, his hands kept moving, but his expression relaxed. All smart people in the world like to talk to smart people and get along with simple people. Unknown, but it all fell into the eyes of the Eighth Prince, he poured the brewed tea into two empty teacups, and pushed it in front of Xia Anran, "Taste it."
Xia Anran pressed down the cat's tail that was raised up unconsciously, and obediently held up the teacup. Although he didn't know how to order tea, he learned the tricks of tea tasting, and the Eighth Prince was very satisfied with his tasting.
In the end, the Eighth Prince also held up his teacup, "You are a smart person."
Xia Anran: =w=
Looking at this small expression, Zhao Yuanyan sighed again, his eyes were dark, "Your Majesty is pure and kind, and I don't want to make things difficult for you, but you should be clear that this matter is not up to His Majesty to decide."
Xia Anran nodded, and sighed softly, "Could it be that among His Majesty's cousins, there is no one who resembles His Majesty?"
His question stunned the Eighth Prince. He stroked his beautiful beard and said nothing, but looked at Xia Anran's expression which was much deeper. If it wasn't for the prince's blood, and the royal family nearby had never heard of the loss of a son, then if I have no blood relationship with His Majesty and can look so similar, there must be someone more similar among His Majesty's blood brothers."
"As far as I know, no." Zhao Yuanyan spoke slowly, playing with the teacup with his fingertips, and said lightly, "Your Majesty's blood brothers are all in Beijing, and this king has to meet once every year and festival. There are people who resemble His Majesty. Nothing like you."
Are they all in Bianjing?Xia Anran blinked, "Forgive me for your boldness, if the princes and sons are all in Tokyo, then the two kings of Pingnan and Taiping are...?"
"These two are kings with different surnames." Although Zhao Yuanyan was in a daze at this time, he somehow explained to him in detail, "During the Taizu period, Taiping Wang's ancestors followed Taizu to conquer the world, and then voluntarily guarded the bitter cold land , King Pingnan was good at governing. Under his management, the counties in the south were peaceful and never rebelled. The Taizu was deeply moved by him, so he bestowed the title of king with a different surname, but he did not give the surname of the country, nor did he marry the princess. Therefore, until now, the two The Queen is not His Majesty's own cousin."
Not your own?Xia Anran couldn't help but blink, what are the chances of being the same without blood relationship?Is there a billionth?
For a moment, he was a little confused. Does the Prince Pingnan's son still look the same as the emperor?If not, why would there still be a duel of two swords at the summit of Zijin?Could it be that it was just a coincidence?
He originally thought he was the son of Prince Pingnan, but according to the Eighth Prince, King Pingnan himself has no blood relationship with Zhao Zhen, and the probability of his child being the same as Zhao Zhen is naturally extremely low, which can also explain Why has the emperor in "Lu Xiaofeng" never been curious about the appearance of Prince Pingnan's son?
When it is reasonable to accept the title of son, the successor will go to the capital to meet the emperor. After all, he is the son of a king with a different surname. If the Zhao family is not allowed to recognize the face and distinguish the loyal and the traitor, the Zhao family will not dare to reuse it.
Let's not explain whether there were kings with different surnames in that dynasty. This situation can indeed be explained if it is placed in the Song Dynasty.
It can also explain why King Pingnan wanted to use that absurd method to snatch the throne - because no matter from which point of view, he is not qualified to be called emperor.
As a king with a different surname, of course it has nothing to do with the Zhao family's country.
Well, it can be explained so far.
What can't be explained is his face.
The Eighth Prince's determined attitude made him always feel that something was missing.
While thinking, Xia Anran casually opened the snacks he bought today to entertain the guests. He felt that the Eight Sage Kings might not leave today until the palace gate was opened. It's good, but if you drink too much tea, you have to go to the toilet, that's embarrassing.
It's better to eat snacks, he bought some sweet and salty, let you choose.
Seeing that he was busy opening all kinds of paper packages, the Baxian King chuckled while holding the tea, "You don't need to get entangled here, I happen to have seen two sons of different surnames in the Song Dynasty. , Prince Pingnan’s son is not good at literature, but he is extremely good at martial arts, this king heard that he even came here to worship famous masters of swordsmanship in Jianghu as teachers.”
"It has the style of its ancestors."
"Master of swordsmanship?" Xia Anran's eyes sparkled when he heard the words, he put a few plates of snacks on the table and pushed them in the direction of the Eighth Prince, with a look of interest on his face, "The master of swordsmanship is Ye Gucheng?"
"You are well informed." Under Xia Anran's strong recommendation, the Baxian King raised his chopsticks without hesitation and grabbed a piece of brown sugar glutinous rice cake. Brown sugar glutinous rice cake is a simple deep-fried glutinous rice cake made by repeatedly beating it. Food.
After the glutinous rice is beaten into a cake shape, it is wrapped into balls and deep-fried in a pan. After going abroad, it is sprinkled with soybean flour, and then poured with hot brown sugar liquid while the glutinous rice balls are still hot. Delicious food, so the eight virtuous kings chose this right away.
After entering, he frowned, "You must not buy Chunhua Building."
Xia Anran was also eating glutinous rice cakes at this time, he was chewing a mouthful of glutinous rice, and couldn't open his mouth, so he blinked and nodded at him, the Eighth Prince immediately criticized him, "the only cakes in Bianjing City that are the most beautiful in Chunhua Building, the glutinous rice they use comes from In Xiangxi, the boss works together to make glutinous rice cakes every spring, and only sells this season of the year, and it will be gone after that.”
Seeing that Xia Anran's eyes widened suddenly showing eagerness, the Eighth Sage King gently put down his chopsticks, and without touching the brown sugar glutinous rice cake, he wiped the corners of his lips that did not get any traces with a handkerchief and said, "Three beauties of glutinous rice cake, Sugar juice, bean flour, glutinous rice cakes."
"Sugar juice needs to be boiled just right, hot, and must not be bitter. However, brown sugar is very easy to have mixed flavors, so honey juice is added to Chunhualou's sugar juice, which takes brown sugar sugar color, and honey juice is sweet, and the taste is just right. Just right."
Xia Anran, who suddenly felt that the brown sugar in his mouth was a little bitter, also put down his chopsticks, and acted like he was listening attentively.
"Furthermore, the bean flour has a strong aroma, so it needs to be sprinkled just right, so that the glutinous rice cakes do not stick together, and only have its aroma. The beauty of glutinous rice must never be taken away."
It seems, it seems that this soy flour is indeed a bit greasy! !
Xia Anran put her paws down on the table, straightened her back and listened carefully.
"Finally, the soul of this glutinous rice cake is Jiangmi."
The Eight Great Kings showed Xia Anran the cross-section bitten open by him, "Jiangmi needs to be smashed into a creamy shape, dense and soft, not sticky to the touch, not sticky to the teeth when chewed, not sticky to the touch with chopsticks, no clumping, no sticking Geda, the glutinous rice cakes made in this way are chewy but not burdensome."
Xia Anran, who always only paid attention to smell but not to taste, widened her eyes and looked at the cross section carefully, oops!It does seem to be a little loose!But this difference is extremely small, the Eighth Prince obviously didn't look inside at all when he ate the glutinous rice cake.
So, so great!
"Mix peanut oil with lard and cook it. The oil temperature should not be too high. Slow frying can ensure that the taste is crispy but not hard."
Baxian Wang, who was bathed in Xia Anran's adoring eyes, said that we have long been used to this kind of eyes, and we don't take it seriously, but it is quite novel to be worshiped because of eating.
He pointed to a few snacks that Xia Anran had bought back, and smiled, "Your nose is still there, and these are indeed some famous restaurants in Bianjing City. But dine-in food is better, and take-out will lose its taste."
Xia Anran was so proud that she puffed out her small chest first, not to mention anything else, she felt that he was the most confident!As long as it smells good, you can smell it every few streets!
There is no way to talk about takeaways. These few days, Second Young Master Bai left early and returned late. If he didn't get up every day and his hands were always warm, sometimes he wouldn't even know that this one had come back.
Naturally, he can't go shopping with him in such a busy schedule. After eating delicious food, Xia Anran naturally wants to leave a portion for him, this is already a habit.
But thinking about it, he can understand it. After all, Bai Jinxi followed him all the way, and guessed that his own affairs have fallen a lot. It is impossible not to work overtime after vacation. Xia Anran is very considerate about this.
When he saw that the Eighth Sage King ate a few pancakes that were still warm, he stopped moving his chopsticks, and he knew that the big boss probably didn't want to eat these cold food. Come to protect yourself, if you really eat these, it's too bad to treat guests. Seeing that the sun is past noon, the Eight Great Kings should have already ordered takeaway for lunch.
The wind is not strong today, the spring is warm, and it is quite comfortable to sit in the courtyard. The two of them were already sitting in the courtyard, and there are basically all the seasonings and ingredients in the kitchen. Xia Anran grabbed a handful of red beans and washed them clean He ordered the cook to cook red bean soup.
He simply brought out a small charcoal stove himself.
The charcoal stove is a small red clay stove that is always available in Bianjing, and it heats up slowly. People in Tokyo usually use it to warm wine, which is very rustic, but Xia Anran added a barbed wire to it.
Today's iron wires are all artificially drawn and penetrated, and the barbed wire is naturally somewhat difficult, so the selling price can even be equal to a small iron pot, all of which are labor costs, but for the sake of delicious grilled food, Xia Anran said that it is completely acceptable.
He just got the barbed wire fence today, so he decided to consecrate it with baked rice cakes for the first time!
For Xia Anran to take out this thing, the Eighth Sage King was a little curious. Seeing him snoring under the stove with an elegant folding fan, the Eighth King of Bianjing couldn't help but hide the folding fan drawn by his famous artist silently, for fear that Xia Anran would An Ran told him that the firepower was not enough and asked him to help.
Regarding Xia Anran's attitude of not accepting life... Zhao Yuanyan was also very speechless.
Just as the fire was heating up, Xia Anran cut the brown sugar glutinous rice cakes into semicircles with a knife, and then brought two pairs of chopsticks to signal the Eight Great Kings to put the glutinous rice cakes on the fire to roast.
Roast... glutinous rice cakes?
The Eight Great Kings held the chopsticks with some hesitation, but seeing Xia Anran's enthusiasm, he still put the glutinous rice cakes on the iron net, and then imitated Xia Anran's appearance, took a brush and dipped some oil on the glutinous rice cakes .
But for a moment, he watched the glutinous rice cakes expand quickly due to heat, especially the soft glutinous glutinous rice noodles on the side of the incision, which were quickly scorched by heat, and a scorched scar appeared.
The Eight Great Kings frowned, burnt... can it be eaten?
OK!Xia Anran firmly told him that the two of them were surrounded by a small stove. The stove was small and the barbed wire mesh was slightly larger. The swollen glutinous rice cakes were put on the side of the net with no fire to warm them. Xia Anran ran around the stove several times. , finally after the third time he brought out a pot of hot red bean soup.
The red beans hadn’t had time to soak in advance, so it’s not easy to make sand, so we had to use the “manual” method to help them make sand. The cooked red bean soup was brought to the table by the servants, along with powdered sugar and salt. The Eighth King glanced casually and was immediately attracted. He raised one eyebrow in confusion, pointed to the powdered salt inside and asked, "Is this salt? Is there salt in the red bean soup?"
This expression almost made Xia Anran point to him and shout after Xia Anran confessed: You are a heretic.
Xia Anran silently glanced at this person, feeling that if there is a battle between sweet and salty soy milk, he must be a firm sweet party. He turned over the glutinous rice cake and explained, "I told the stove not to put sugar, because I'm not sure if it's baked or not." What is the sugar content of the next glutinous rice cake? If you add molasses, it will be bad, so why not sprinkle it while trying."
What about salt?The Eight Sage King's eyebrows still haven't fallen down, just waiting for his reply, Xia Anran explained with a smile, "Salty can enhance sweetness, your lord might as well give it a try, a little salty can make sweetness more layered."
Seeing the expression on the Eighth Prince's face that you are not joking, Xia Anran pointed to the tea on the table, "Prince, do you think that when drinking tea, it is bitter in the mouth, but it turns sweet after a while, if you eat food with high sugar content at this time Will it feel sweeter?"
"It does make some sense." The Eighth Prince, who seems to be very experienced here, nodded, and he looked at the red bean porridge with some doubts, "This...is it really feasible?"
Xia Anran nodded, very determined.
This is a relatively cold knowledge. You will know that this is not because he went to the kitchen, but because he saw a sugar taste called salty watermelon when he was traveling in Japan.
Xia Anran originally thought it was something similar to watermelon sauce, but after buying it and trying it, she almost couldn't spit it out, the essence of watermelon was matched with a salty taste.
The combination of the two phases is really unacceptable to ordinary people. I later learned that this is because Japan has a small land and lack of resources, especially the soil required for planting watermelons, so its annual output is very small. When eating watermelon, they can only eat slices.
Moreover, when buying watermelon, there is naturally no Chinese person who can cut a bite and taste it. If it is not sweet, don’t buy it. When you buy a melon, it is basically a treat for customers. If you open the melon and find it is not sweet, of course it will not be refunded.
Therefore, the witty Sakura people may have been inspired by cooking, or they may have been forced out of wisdom by life. It is not just anyone who was the first to sprinkle a thin layer of salt on watermelon. It can make the sweetness more prominent and taste naturally sweeter.
But this degree is very difficult to grasp. Most of the time, what you eat is the sweet and salty watermelon.This taste constitutes the memory of a generation in Japan. Nowadays, Japanese teenagers rarely have this kind of experience. This is the food wisdom of the older generation when resources are scarce.
Just like the old people in Huaxia, there will always be a few dishes that modern people will not eat, such as the starch liquid rubbed out of immature wheat, which is delicious after a little roasting.
For example, there is honey in the root of a bunch of red, which is very sweet. For example, the seeds of a bowl of flowers are rubbed open, and the white powder inside is crushed to make a powder cake.
All kinds of things are not the knowledge that modern young people know, and with the gradual enrichment of products, these unpopular little knowledge may only be left in the history books in the end.
The Eighth Prince was skeptical, but he swallowed his words when he saw that Xia Anran was eating the porridge. His hands were still flipping the baked glutinous rice cakes, but his eyes kept looking at Xia Anran who was picking the porridge. After a while, he still couldn't hold back. Say to Xia Anran, "Put more honey in that bowl of porridge for this king."
Xia Anran was about to add salt, and added some sugar to his bowl. When he was asked for the third time, he couldn't bear it and turned his head, "My lord, Ciba is already sweet, if you add sugar, it will be too sweet." !"
"No." The Eighth Prince said with great confidence, "I won't even eat honey without stuttering."
Xia Anran twitched the corners of her mouth, shook some sugar in, and then sprinkled some salt. After the bowl of red bean soup was placed in front of the Eighth Prince, he demonstrated it.
The first step is to pick up the baked glutinous rice cakes and roll them on the fire again.
In the second part, throw it into the red bean soup, use chopsticks to poke the surface of the scorched glutinous rice balls, and then eat with hot red bean soup.
There is also a drawing effect!
"Hiss..." Xia Anran huffed and fanned the air with the other hand while pulling the glutinous rice shreds from the inside of the glutinous rice cake.
He originally thought that the glutinous rice cake was already cold on the side, but because of the protection of the crispy shell, the temperature of the glutinous rice inside was kept extremely good, so he could only hiss when he was unguarded, seeing him like this Look, the Eighth Prince was prepared, imitating Xia Anran's example, rolled a glutinous rice cake and dipped it into the red bean soup, and then carefully bit open a hole.
The inner core of the glutinous rice cake is soft and delicious. It seems that because of reheating, it does not have the sticky texture before, especially after sticking with red bean soup, the taste is even more delicious.
As Xia Anran said, even though the red bean soup was sprinkled with salt, he couldn't taste it. He tasted it carefully, perhaps because the rice cake itself was rolled with brown sugar, and there were two or three types of rice cakes at the same time. Sweetness, as Xia Anran said, this taste is indeed more layered.
After the two shared the small plate of brown sugar glutinous rice cakes, Xia Anran took the pancakes and baked them on the charcoal stove. I don't know if it was because of the relationship between mood and scenery, it tasted even better.
The Eighth Prince was not stingy when he ate unexpected delicacies, and when it was time for dinner, he invited Xia Anran to a table for dinner, and while they were pushing glasses and changing glasses, the two had a good impression of each other .
When the eighth prince was leaving, Xia Anran asked if the prince would come tomorrow?If you come, he will make some desserts for guests tonight and tomorrow.
Seeing that the Eighth Prince's eyes suddenly turned dark, Xia Anran smiled slightly and said, "It's a bit boring to be alone on weekdays. You don't have to worry about it. I know the seriousness, and I also understand the painstaking efforts of the Prince."
Zhao Yuanyan looked at him quietly for a moment and then twitched the corners of his mouth, "Let's wait and see about the king."
"Okay." Xia Anran bowed slightly to him, "Wait a minute, my lord."
After a while, the gate of his house was closed, Xia Anran slowly got up, it seems that the situation is still not very good... I have to live with my tail curled up these days...
He remembered that the emperor mother and son met after the concubine's birthday, which means that the concubine must celebrate her birthday during this period...the prince will not be able to come at that time anyway. How to deal with it has to be figured out.
Just as he walked into the garden with his arms folded, he suddenly heard a small male voice from next door, "Brother, brother, can you let me have a taste of that red bean soup?"
Xia Anran was startled, he didn't notice anyone at all?
He raised his head abruptly, and met a colorful pig-headed face. The man smiled awkwardly, and he was climbing on the wall in a precarious state. I've been hungry until now...the food delivery person hasn't come yet."
"Can you give me a bowl of red bean soup?"
Seeing that Xia Anran's face remained unchanged, and he couldn't see his emotions suddenly, the man was also a little embarrassed, he blinked suddenly, touched up and down with one free hand, and raised a jade pendant after a while, "I'll exchange this for you." , how are you?"
The author has something to say: Actually, I didn’t have Kawen yesterday, and the last sentence was inexplicably missing. When I read the comments, I was confused, hahahahahaha! ! !
Pouring tea to welcome guests was not yet popular in the Song Dynasty, because they poured tea...too slow. Our current popular way of welcoming guests is still after the development of fried tea.At that time, the welcome ceremony was actually fruit cakes, but Xia Anran subconsciously wanted to pour tea, and then...he couldn't pour it.
Prince: A deep gaze.
Xia Miao's identity...it's not that simple.
The last chubby is not Yu Tianbao, let me tell you first!
The author is drooling crazily while checking the typos, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh my love!
Glutinous rice cakes are rice cakes, some places also call it dagao. The method is to steam glutinous rice or glutinous rice + rice and beat it repeatedly. Jiangmi = glutinous rice, which is called differently.
If you are a native of Damodu, I recommend eating Shu Daxia’s brown sugar glutinous rice cake, it is very delicious!
刺溜
Every time I go to eat glutinous rice cakes and eat hot pot by the way!
I ate at the People's Square store. I don't know if other stores are good, but Shu Daxia's brown sugar glutinous rice cakes are famous.
Red bean paste needs to be soaked in water for a long time, but if you make it in a hurry... just crush it with gauze =w=
The glutinous rice cake or rice cake will expand when heated, but I am not sure if it will be fried after being fried. If there is no brown sugar glutinous rice cake, it will leak out of my mouth, no!
But the incision part sure will!
In slight amounts, salt can enhance sweetness.
Japan actually eats this way now. You can eat Chinese watermelon with this method... I don’t feel it. You have to find the kind of melon that is not sweet. For example, watermelon rind. The skin seems to be quite sweet!
It's not that the watermelon rind is sweet, it's because of the salt.
Some Japanese people really come to China for fruits. The author used to work in a Japanese company, and there are many Japanese in the company. In summer...the watermelon season started last year, and their recipe is watermelon + cantaloupe.
Of course, there is one thing to say, Japanese fruit is not really bad, it’s just that it’s very delicious and expensive. If you buy it from an ordinary vegetable market or a small stall...it’s normal that it’s not sweet.I have tried it several times, especially when I traveled to Japan. That was the time when Japan was overrated in China. The rice is delicious, the air is good, the water is sweet, and the fruits are terribly sweet.
After I went there: Hmm... How bad was your quality of life when you felt this way?
My feeling is that it is delicious, but that's it, but the fruit is really not good.
Japan's fruit import tax is very expensive, because Japan's land is small, for the sake of protecting domestic farmers, the fruit import tax is about 3 times, so that the price of imported fruit is not much different from that of domestic fruit, or even higher Expensive, so the Japanese subconsciously choose domestic fruits.
So don't ask us why we don't sell them watermelons.
Not to mention that if Shanghai Nanhui 8424 is exported to them... it is estimated that the Japanese watermelon market will collapse.
correct!Speaking of watermelon, if you have a southerner who travels to the imperial capital in summer, you must try the watermelon in the north, it’s so big! ! ! !
And it's like winter melon! ! !
It's long, long!
That day, my friend and I went into the fruit shop. We were ignorant and said to the big sister in the shop, let’s have a melon.
Then the eldest sister pointed at the watermelon as soon as she heard our accent, "One?"
The moment my friends and I turned our heads, we all showed terrified expressions.
In the end, the two of us bought half of them~=w=
By the way, watermelon bar, especially 8424, except for some specialty stores, its pointed tail is anti-counterfeiting, and the other ones called 8424... are all fake
As the gold-lettered signboard of Chinese watermelon, Nanhui has very strict protection for 8424, whether it is price control, quality, seed protection, or even pollination. It will not flow to the truck.
Of course, the truck melon is also very sweet.
On the contrary, I think that those varieties of melons are not as sweet as truck melons.
By the way, Mimi would like to ask, do you feel that the fruit is sweet now, but it lacks a bit of flavor?
I mean, the layers are very thin. Ordinary fruits are sweet, sour, sweet, and fragrant. Anyway, it is a mixture of several flavors, but the current fruit is only sweet.
And then... there is nothing.
My grandfather planted a loquat tree without fertilizers, relying on its photosynthesis. Every year when the loquat is ripe, it will attract a lot of birds. The top of the tree is reserved for the birds, and the bottom of the tree is reserved for us. The core is big, but sour. Sweet and delicious.
The author Jun Taobao will also buy strawberry seedlings, so I planted them myself. Of course, I bought strawberry seedlings of a certain variety, and let it grow for a long time. If the pollination does not affect the taste at all, it really surpasses all varieties. strawberry.
Rubbing hands, so it was my one time dream to grow all the strawberry varieties aside.
drooling
People's hearts are not like a glass of wine, who can guess right from wrong.Lyrics from Clay Girl, not original by the author, slightly modified.
Zhao Yuanyan's expression was light, and he stood facing the wind with his sleeves folded, graceful and graceful.
Xia Anran was slightly taken aback, although he didn't understand why the Eighth Prince suddenly came to him now, and pretended to give him an explanation, but because the royal family of the Song Dynasty often had inexplicable operations, he still showed He understood, and invited people into the room to sit down, and at the same time he put down the items he had bought.
Because the servants had been dismissed, Xia Anran could only treat the guests in person, but first the two encountered a problem.
The two looked at each other, there was a tea set and a small water stove on the table, but no one poured tea.
Xia Anran hasn't learned how to order tea in the Song Dynasty, and he doesn't intend to make a fool of himself in front of others. Bai Jinxi usually makes tea... Cough, now this disadvantage is placed in front of him.
But the Eight Sage King didn't seem to think that Xia Anran wouldn't pour tea, seeing that he didn't make a move, so he sighed secretly in his heart, only thought that he was somewhat resentful, so he couldn't say it clearly, so he used this action to hint.
It is true that if Xia Anran is really innocent, in this situation, he naturally believes in today's judgment in his heart - he is his father, but he is unwilling to recognize him.
He thought of the last few sentences of the book written by Xia Anran, especially one of the lines "People's hearts are not like wine in a mirror, who can guess right from wrong." When writing this book, Xia Anran hadn't expected to encounter this situation. In retrospect, there is a sense of fate.
In the Song Dynasty, there were many temperamental literati and scholars, so a nail that didn't hurt or itch was really nothing, Zhao Yuanyan just looked at Xia Anran and said word by word.
"The emperor is indeed the son of the former emperor. This king did exchange his third son with the crown prince. But the third son of this king is still in good health, and he is indeed not a lord."
After he said such seemingly ruthless words, his eyes swept across Xia Anran's face sharply. He thought that young people would change color somewhat when faced with such ruthless and even harsh words. After thinking for a while in silence, he smiled sharply, "It seems that His Majesty has found conclusive evidence and placed it in front of you, proving that you are indeed not his biological father?"
The Eighth Prince didn't move at all, he lowered his eyes slightly, but reached out for the tea pot, and ordered tea for the two of them himself, this way of avoiding the problem is exactly the same.
Xia Anran thought so.
Seeing the man's attitude, he didn't ask any more questions, but just admired the man's every move with his eyes.With the same posture range, the middle-aged man Zhao Yuanyan did it completely differently from the young Zhao Zhen, and his every move was slow and artistic.
Zhao Zhen's movements were somewhat deliberate, but this man was as unrestrained and unrestrained as water.
Any demeanor that is deliberately described by art is different, but the same goal is that beginners are always entangled in posture and pay attention to textbook-like standards, while people who can be called everyone integrate movements into their posture. In the middle, every move has its own rules.
Xia Anran only admired it for a moment, but his mind was running rapidly.
It was within his expectation that the emperor could find evidence. Many things would not stand up to investigation, not to mention that the will of the world predestined to leave clues in the case of replacing the civet cat with the prince, and it was also preordained that Renzong would know all this in advance.
But why did the Eight Sage Kings come to the door?
He is now under house arrest, and there must be interception of communication information, and he frequently changes people every day, so he went out this morning. It is by no means nervous to the extent that it must be said clearly today.
In other words, the Eighth Prince chose to come in this situation where he could come or not.
The Eighth Prince should be very clear about Xia Anran's situation. Although he has internal strength, he can't mobilize it, not to mention flying over the wall. The only people he knows in the arena are Sikong Zhaixing and Lu Xiaofeng, and these two are also on the side of the government.
Therefore, to guard against him, it is not necessary for the Eighth Prince to sit in charge in person.
Then the conclusion is very simple.
Xia Anran's gaze slowly turned to the direction of the gate.
Since it was not to prevent him from escaping, it should be to prevent someone from breaking in.
And would forcefully barge into the mansion arranged for him to live by the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, there is only one person in the world, who can have this power, and there is a need for it-the Queen Mother.
It is very easy for the Queen Mother to break in.
She is the prime minister in the harem, and she is also responsible for educating the emperor. At that time, she only needs to make an excuse to hear that the emperor has raised an unknown person outside, and then she can send someone to investigate. Or there is a reason to take him back with his face covered, and it's a family matter. At this time, if the people don't report the case, the officials will ignore it. If no one reports the case for him, even if the governor of Kaifeng is Bao Zheng, he can't control it. .
But the premise of all this is that the Eight Sage Kings are not here.
The Eight Sage Kings hold a tile-faced golden mace in their hands, which can be used to attack the emperor and the ministers. He has the power to behead first and then play. At that time, Renzong was still young, and Empress Liu was always smart, so it was reasonable for Zhenzong to leave an imperial order to his younger brother.
Regardless of whether it exists or not, it seems that there is no such thing in history, but even if there is no such thing, Empress Liu feels that there is.
If the Eight Worthy King, who is the biological father of the emperor, stayed here, even if he was aloof from the court and kept a low profile, naturally no one would dare to break in, and no one would dare to take Xia Anran away when he broke in.
The situation has come to such a point?
He turned his eyes slightly, and immediately realized that the emperor might have obtained decisive evidence, but didn't Bao Zheng just come back today?How did you get evidence that could poke Empress Liu's sore feet?move so fast...
It's normal when you think about it carefully, after all, Bai Jinxi is involved in this world, and Bai Er Shao might have done it!
Just when he was feeling complacent, a probing look suddenly caught his eye. It was Zhao Yuanyan who was making tea, and Xia Anran immediately put away his small expression and became very obedient, but...
"It's late." Zhao Yuanyan snorted softly, his hands kept moving, but his expression relaxed. All smart people in the world like to talk to smart people and get along with simple people. Unknown, but it all fell into the eyes of the Eighth Prince, he poured the brewed tea into two empty teacups, and pushed it in front of Xia Anran, "Taste it."
Xia Anran pressed down the cat's tail that was raised up unconsciously, and obediently held up the teacup. Although he didn't know how to order tea, he learned the tricks of tea tasting, and the Eighth Prince was very satisfied with his tasting.
In the end, the Eighth Prince also held up his teacup, "You are a smart person."
Xia Anran: =w=
Looking at this small expression, Zhao Yuanyan sighed again, his eyes were dark, "Your Majesty is pure and kind, and I don't want to make things difficult for you, but you should be clear that this matter is not up to His Majesty to decide."
Xia Anran nodded, and sighed softly, "Could it be that among His Majesty's cousins, there is no one who resembles His Majesty?"
His question stunned the Eighth Prince. He stroked his beautiful beard and said nothing, but looked at Xia Anran's expression which was much deeper. If it wasn't for the prince's blood, and the royal family nearby had never heard of the loss of a son, then if I have no blood relationship with His Majesty and can look so similar, there must be someone more similar among His Majesty's blood brothers."
"As far as I know, no." Zhao Yuanyan spoke slowly, playing with the teacup with his fingertips, and said lightly, "Your Majesty's blood brothers are all in Beijing, and this king has to meet once every year and festival. There are people who resemble His Majesty. Nothing like you."
Are they all in Bianjing?Xia Anran blinked, "Forgive me for your boldness, if the princes and sons are all in Tokyo, then the two kings of Pingnan and Taiping are...?"
"These two are kings with different surnames." Although Zhao Yuanyan was in a daze at this time, he somehow explained to him in detail, "During the Taizu period, Taiping Wang's ancestors followed Taizu to conquer the world, and then voluntarily guarded the bitter cold land , King Pingnan was good at governing. Under his management, the counties in the south were peaceful and never rebelled. The Taizu was deeply moved by him, so he bestowed the title of king with a different surname, but he did not give the surname of the country, nor did he marry the princess. Therefore, until now, the two The Queen is not His Majesty's own cousin."
Not your own?Xia Anran couldn't help but blink, what are the chances of being the same without blood relationship?Is there a billionth?
For a moment, he was a little confused. Does the Prince Pingnan's son still look the same as the emperor?If not, why would there still be a duel of two swords at the summit of Zijin?Could it be that it was just a coincidence?
He originally thought he was the son of Prince Pingnan, but according to the Eighth Prince, King Pingnan himself has no blood relationship with Zhao Zhen, and the probability of his child being the same as Zhao Zhen is naturally extremely low, which can also explain Why has the emperor in "Lu Xiaofeng" never been curious about the appearance of Prince Pingnan's son?
When it is reasonable to accept the title of son, the successor will go to the capital to meet the emperor. After all, he is the son of a king with a different surname. If the Zhao family is not allowed to recognize the face and distinguish the loyal and the traitor, the Zhao family will not dare to reuse it.
Let's not explain whether there were kings with different surnames in that dynasty. This situation can indeed be explained if it is placed in the Song Dynasty.
It can also explain why King Pingnan wanted to use that absurd method to snatch the throne - because no matter from which point of view, he is not qualified to be called emperor.
As a king with a different surname, of course it has nothing to do with the Zhao family's country.
Well, it can be explained so far.
What can't be explained is his face.
The Eighth Prince's determined attitude made him always feel that something was missing.
While thinking, Xia Anran casually opened the snacks he bought today to entertain the guests. He felt that the Eight Sage Kings might not leave today until the palace gate was opened. It's good, but if you drink too much tea, you have to go to the toilet, that's embarrassing.
It's better to eat snacks, he bought some sweet and salty, let you choose.
Seeing that he was busy opening all kinds of paper packages, the Baxian King chuckled while holding the tea, "You don't need to get entangled here, I happen to have seen two sons of different surnames in the Song Dynasty. , Prince Pingnan’s son is not good at literature, but he is extremely good at martial arts, this king heard that he even came here to worship famous masters of swordsmanship in Jianghu as teachers.”
"It has the style of its ancestors."
"Master of swordsmanship?" Xia Anran's eyes sparkled when he heard the words, he put a few plates of snacks on the table and pushed them in the direction of the Eighth Prince, with a look of interest on his face, "The master of swordsmanship is Ye Gucheng?"
"You are well informed." Under Xia Anran's strong recommendation, the Baxian King raised his chopsticks without hesitation and grabbed a piece of brown sugar glutinous rice cake. Brown sugar glutinous rice cake is a simple deep-fried glutinous rice cake made by repeatedly beating it. Food.
After the glutinous rice is beaten into a cake shape, it is wrapped into balls and deep-fried in a pan. After going abroad, it is sprinkled with soybean flour, and then poured with hot brown sugar liquid while the glutinous rice balls are still hot. Delicious food, so the eight virtuous kings chose this right away.
After entering, he frowned, "You must not buy Chunhua Building."
Xia Anran was also eating glutinous rice cakes at this time, he was chewing a mouthful of glutinous rice, and couldn't open his mouth, so he blinked and nodded at him, the Eighth Prince immediately criticized him, "the only cakes in Bianjing City that are the most beautiful in Chunhua Building, the glutinous rice they use comes from In Xiangxi, the boss works together to make glutinous rice cakes every spring, and only sells this season of the year, and it will be gone after that.”
Seeing that Xia Anran's eyes widened suddenly showing eagerness, the Eighth Sage King gently put down his chopsticks, and without touching the brown sugar glutinous rice cake, he wiped the corners of his lips that did not get any traces with a handkerchief and said, "Three beauties of glutinous rice cake, Sugar juice, bean flour, glutinous rice cakes."
"Sugar juice needs to be boiled just right, hot, and must not be bitter. However, brown sugar is very easy to have mixed flavors, so honey juice is added to Chunhualou's sugar juice, which takes brown sugar sugar color, and honey juice is sweet, and the taste is just right. Just right."
Xia Anran, who suddenly felt that the brown sugar in his mouth was a little bitter, also put down his chopsticks, and acted like he was listening attentively.
"Furthermore, the bean flour has a strong aroma, so it needs to be sprinkled just right, so that the glutinous rice cakes do not stick together, and only have its aroma. The beauty of glutinous rice must never be taken away."
It seems, it seems that this soy flour is indeed a bit greasy! !
Xia Anran put her paws down on the table, straightened her back and listened carefully.
"Finally, the soul of this glutinous rice cake is Jiangmi."
The Eight Great Kings showed Xia Anran the cross-section bitten open by him, "Jiangmi needs to be smashed into a creamy shape, dense and soft, not sticky to the touch, not sticky to the teeth when chewed, not sticky to the touch with chopsticks, no clumping, no sticking Geda, the glutinous rice cakes made in this way are chewy but not burdensome."
Xia Anran, who always only paid attention to smell but not to taste, widened her eyes and looked at the cross section carefully, oops!It does seem to be a little loose!But this difference is extremely small, the Eighth Prince obviously didn't look inside at all when he ate the glutinous rice cake.
So, so great!
"Mix peanut oil with lard and cook it. The oil temperature should not be too high. Slow frying can ensure that the taste is crispy but not hard."
Baxian Wang, who was bathed in Xia Anran's adoring eyes, said that we have long been used to this kind of eyes, and we don't take it seriously, but it is quite novel to be worshiped because of eating.
He pointed to a few snacks that Xia Anran had bought back, and smiled, "Your nose is still there, and these are indeed some famous restaurants in Bianjing City. But dine-in food is better, and take-out will lose its taste."
Xia Anran was so proud that she puffed out her small chest first, not to mention anything else, she felt that he was the most confident!As long as it smells good, you can smell it every few streets!
There is no way to talk about takeaways. These few days, Second Young Master Bai left early and returned late. If he didn't get up every day and his hands were always warm, sometimes he wouldn't even know that this one had come back.
Naturally, he can't go shopping with him in such a busy schedule. After eating delicious food, Xia Anran naturally wants to leave a portion for him, this is already a habit.
But thinking about it, he can understand it. After all, Bai Jinxi followed him all the way, and guessed that his own affairs have fallen a lot. It is impossible not to work overtime after vacation. Xia Anran is very considerate about this.
When he saw that the Eighth Sage King ate a few pancakes that were still warm, he stopped moving his chopsticks, and he knew that the big boss probably didn't want to eat these cold food. Come to protect yourself, if you really eat these, it's too bad to treat guests. Seeing that the sun is past noon, the Eight Great Kings should have already ordered takeaway for lunch.
The wind is not strong today, the spring is warm, and it is quite comfortable to sit in the courtyard. The two of them were already sitting in the courtyard, and there are basically all the seasonings and ingredients in the kitchen. Xia Anran grabbed a handful of red beans and washed them clean He ordered the cook to cook red bean soup.
He simply brought out a small charcoal stove himself.
The charcoal stove is a small red clay stove that is always available in Bianjing, and it heats up slowly. People in Tokyo usually use it to warm wine, which is very rustic, but Xia Anran added a barbed wire to it.
Today's iron wires are all artificially drawn and penetrated, and the barbed wire is naturally somewhat difficult, so the selling price can even be equal to a small iron pot, all of which are labor costs, but for the sake of delicious grilled food, Xia Anran said that it is completely acceptable.
He just got the barbed wire fence today, so he decided to consecrate it with baked rice cakes for the first time!
For Xia Anran to take out this thing, the Eighth Sage King was a little curious. Seeing him snoring under the stove with an elegant folding fan, the Eighth King of Bianjing couldn't help but hide the folding fan drawn by his famous artist silently, for fear that Xia Anran would An Ran told him that the firepower was not enough and asked him to help.
Regarding Xia Anran's attitude of not accepting life... Zhao Yuanyan was also very speechless.
Just as the fire was heating up, Xia Anran cut the brown sugar glutinous rice cakes into semicircles with a knife, and then brought two pairs of chopsticks to signal the Eight Great Kings to put the glutinous rice cakes on the fire to roast.
Roast... glutinous rice cakes?
The Eight Great Kings held the chopsticks with some hesitation, but seeing Xia Anran's enthusiasm, he still put the glutinous rice cakes on the iron net, and then imitated Xia Anran's appearance, took a brush and dipped some oil on the glutinous rice cakes .
But for a moment, he watched the glutinous rice cakes expand quickly due to heat, especially the soft glutinous glutinous rice noodles on the side of the incision, which were quickly scorched by heat, and a scorched scar appeared.
The Eight Great Kings frowned, burnt... can it be eaten?
OK!Xia Anran firmly told him that the two of them were surrounded by a small stove. The stove was small and the barbed wire mesh was slightly larger. The swollen glutinous rice cakes were put on the side of the net with no fire to warm them. Xia Anran ran around the stove several times. , finally after the third time he brought out a pot of hot red bean soup.
The red beans hadn’t had time to soak in advance, so it’s not easy to make sand, so we had to use the “manual” method to help them make sand. The cooked red bean soup was brought to the table by the servants, along with powdered sugar and salt. The Eighth King glanced casually and was immediately attracted. He raised one eyebrow in confusion, pointed to the powdered salt inside and asked, "Is this salt? Is there salt in the red bean soup?"
This expression almost made Xia Anran point to him and shout after Xia Anran confessed: You are a heretic.
Xia Anran silently glanced at this person, feeling that if there is a battle between sweet and salty soy milk, he must be a firm sweet party. He turned over the glutinous rice cake and explained, "I told the stove not to put sugar, because I'm not sure if it's baked or not." What is the sugar content of the next glutinous rice cake? If you add molasses, it will be bad, so why not sprinkle it while trying."
What about salt?The Eight Sage King's eyebrows still haven't fallen down, just waiting for his reply, Xia Anran explained with a smile, "Salty can enhance sweetness, your lord might as well give it a try, a little salty can make sweetness more layered."
Seeing the expression on the Eighth Prince's face that you are not joking, Xia Anran pointed to the tea on the table, "Prince, do you think that when drinking tea, it is bitter in the mouth, but it turns sweet after a while, if you eat food with high sugar content at this time Will it feel sweeter?"
"It does make some sense." The Eighth Prince, who seems to be very experienced here, nodded, and he looked at the red bean porridge with some doubts, "This...is it really feasible?"
Xia Anran nodded, very determined.
This is a relatively cold knowledge. You will know that this is not because he went to the kitchen, but because he saw a sugar taste called salty watermelon when he was traveling in Japan.
Xia Anran originally thought it was something similar to watermelon sauce, but after buying it and trying it, she almost couldn't spit it out, the essence of watermelon was matched with a salty taste.
The combination of the two phases is really unacceptable to ordinary people. I later learned that this is because Japan has a small land and lack of resources, especially the soil required for planting watermelons, so its annual output is very small. When eating watermelon, they can only eat slices.
Moreover, when buying watermelon, there is naturally no Chinese person who can cut a bite and taste it. If it is not sweet, don’t buy it. When you buy a melon, it is basically a treat for customers. If you open the melon and find it is not sweet, of course it will not be refunded.
Therefore, the witty Sakura people may have been inspired by cooking, or they may have been forced out of wisdom by life. It is not just anyone who was the first to sprinkle a thin layer of salt on watermelon. It can make the sweetness more prominent and taste naturally sweeter.
But this degree is very difficult to grasp. Most of the time, what you eat is the sweet and salty watermelon.This taste constitutes the memory of a generation in Japan. Nowadays, Japanese teenagers rarely have this kind of experience. This is the food wisdom of the older generation when resources are scarce.
Just like the old people in Huaxia, there will always be a few dishes that modern people will not eat, such as the starch liquid rubbed out of immature wheat, which is delicious after a little roasting.
For example, there is honey in the root of a bunch of red, which is very sweet. For example, the seeds of a bowl of flowers are rubbed open, and the white powder inside is crushed to make a powder cake.
All kinds of things are not the knowledge that modern young people know, and with the gradual enrichment of products, these unpopular little knowledge may only be left in the history books in the end.
The Eighth Prince was skeptical, but he swallowed his words when he saw that Xia Anran was eating the porridge. His hands were still flipping the baked glutinous rice cakes, but his eyes kept looking at Xia Anran who was picking the porridge. After a while, he still couldn't hold back. Say to Xia Anran, "Put more honey in that bowl of porridge for this king."
Xia Anran was about to add salt, and added some sugar to his bowl. When he was asked for the third time, he couldn't bear it and turned his head, "My lord, Ciba is already sweet, if you add sugar, it will be too sweet." !"
"No." The Eighth Prince said with great confidence, "I won't even eat honey without stuttering."
Xia Anran twitched the corners of her mouth, shook some sugar in, and then sprinkled some salt. After the bowl of red bean soup was placed in front of the Eighth Prince, he demonstrated it.
The first step is to pick up the baked glutinous rice cakes and roll them on the fire again.
In the second part, throw it into the red bean soup, use chopsticks to poke the surface of the scorched glutinous rice balls, and then eat with hot red bean soup.
There is also a drawing effect!
"Hiss..." Xia Anran huffed and fanned the air with the other hand while pulling the glutinous rice shreds from the inside of the glutinous rice cake.
He originally thought that the glutinous rice cake was already cold on the side, but because of the protection of the crispy shell, the temperature of the glutinous rice inside was kept extremely good, so he could only hiss when he was unguarded, seeing him like this Look, the Eighth Prince was prepared, imitating Xia Anran's example, rolled a glutinous rice cake and dipped it into the red bean soup, and then carefully bit open a hole.
The inner core of the glutinous rice cake is soft and delicious. It seems that because of reheating, it does not have the sticky texture before, especially after sticking with red bean soup, the taste is even more delicious.
As Xia Anran said, even though the red bean soup was sprinkled with salt, he couldn't taste it. He tasted it carefully, perhaps because the rice cake itself was rolled with brown sugar, and there were two or three types of rice cakes at the same time. Sweetness, as Xia Anran said, this taste is indeed more layered.
After the two shared the small plate of brown sugar glutinous rice cakes, Xia Anran took the pancakes and baked them on the charcoal stove. I don't know if it was because of the relationship between mood and scenery, it tasted even better.
The Eighth Prince was not stingy when he ate unexpected delicacies, and when it was time for dinner, he invited Xia Anran to a table for dinner, and while they were pushing glasses and changing glasses, the two had a good impression of each other .
When the eighth prince was leaving, Xia Anran asked if the prince would come tomorrow?If you come, he will make some desserts for guests tonight and tomorrow.
Seeing that the Eighth Prince's eyes suddenly turned dark, Xia Anran smiled slightly and said, "It's a bit boring to be alone on weekdays. You don't have to worry about it. I know the seriousness, and I also understand the painstaking efforts of the Prince."
Zhao Yuanyan looked at him quietly for a moment and then twitched the corners of his mouth, "Let's wait and see about the king."
"Okay." Xia Anran bowed slightly to him, "Wait a minute, my lord."
After a while, the gate of his house was closed, Xia Anran slowly got up, it seems that the situation is still not very good... I have to live with my tail curled up these days...
He remembered that the emperor mother and son met after the concubine's birthday, which means that the concubine must celebrate her birthday during this period...the prince will not be able to come at that time anyway. How to deal with it has to be figured out.
Just as he walked into the garden with his arms folded, he suddenly heard a small male voice from next door, "Brother, brother, can you let me have a taste of that red bean soup?"
Xia Anran was startled, he didn't notice anyone at all?
He raised his head abruptly, and met a colorful pig-headed face. The man smiled awkwardly, and he was climbing on the wall in a precarious state. I've been hungry until now...the food delivery person hasn't come yet."
"Can you give me a bowl of red bean soup?"
Seeing that Xia Anran's face remained unchanged, and he couldn't see his emotions suddenly, the man was also a little embarrassed, he blinked suddenly, touched up and down with one free hand, and raised a jade pendant after a while, "I'll exchange this for you." , how are you?"
The author has something to say: Actually, I didn’t have Kawen yesterday, and the last sentence was inexplicably missing. When I read the comments, I was confused, hahahahahaha! ! !
Pouring tea to welcome guests was not yet popular in the Song Dynasty, because they poured tea...too slow. Our current popular way of welcoming guests is still after the development of fried tea.At that time, the welcome ceremony was actually fruit cakes, but Xia Anran subconsciously wanted to pour tea, and then...he couldn't pour it.
Prince: A deep gaze.
Xia Miao's identity...it's not that simple.
The last chubby is not Yu Tianbao, let me tell you first!
The author is drooling crazily while checking the typos, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh my love!
Glutinous rice cakes are rice cakes, some places also call it dagao. The method is to steam glutinous rice or glutinous rice + rice and beat it repeatedly. Jiangmi = glutinous rice, which is called differently.
If you are a native of Damodu, I recommend eating Shu Daxia’s brown sugar glutinous rice cake, it is very delicious!
刺溜
Every time I go to eat glutinous rice cakes and eat hot pot by the way!
I ate at the People's Square store. I don't know if other stores are good, but Shu Daxia's brown sugar glutinous rice cakes are famous.
Red bean paste needs to be soaked in water for a long time, but if you make it in a hurry... just crush it with gauze =w=
The glutinous rice cake or rice cake will expand when heated, but I am not sure if it will be fried after being fried. If there is no brown sugar glutinous rice cake, it will leak out of my mouth, no!
But the incision part sure will!
In slight amounts, salt can enhance sweetness.
Japan actually eats this way now. You can eat Chinese watermelon with this method... I don’t feel it. You have to find the kind of melon that is not sweet. For example, watermelon rind. The skin seems to be quite sweet!
It's not that the watermelon rind is sweet, it's because of the salt.
Some Japanese people really come to China for fruits. The author used to work in a Japanese company, and there are many Japanese in the company. In summer...the watermelon season started last year, and their recipe is watermelon + cantaloupe.
Of course, there is one thing to say, Japanese fruit is not really bad, it’s just that it’s very delicious and expensive. If you buy it from an ordinary vegetable market or a small stall...it’s normal that it’s not sweet.I have tried it several times, especially when I traveled to Japan. That was the time when Japan was overrated in China. The rice is delicious, the air is good, the water is sweet, and the fruits are terribly sweet.
After I went there: Hmm... How bad was your quality of life when you felt this way?
My feeling is that it is delicious, but that's it, but the fruit is really not good.
Japan's fruit import tax is very expensive, because Japan's land is small, for the sake of protecting domestic farmers, the fruit import tax is about 3 times, so that the price of imported fruit is not much different from that of domestic fruit, or even higher Expensive, so the Japanese subconsciously choose domestic fruits.
So don't ask us why we don't sell them watermelons.
Not to mention that if Shanghai Nanhui 8424 is exported to them... it is estimated that the Japanese watermelon market will collapse.
correct!Speaking of watermelon, if you have a southerner who travels to the imperial capital in summer, you must try the watermelon in the north, it’s so big! ! ! !
And it's like winter melon! ! !
It's long, long!
That day, my friend and I went into the fruit shop. We were ignorant and said to the big sister in the shop, let’s have a melon.
Then the eldest sister pointed at the watermelon as soon as she heard our accent, "One?"
The moment my friends and I turned our heads, we all showed terrified expressions.
In the end, the two of us bought half of them~=w=
By the way, watermelon bar, especially 8424, except for some specialty stores, its pointed tail is anti-counterfeiting, and the other ones called 8424... are all fake
As the gold-lettered signboard of Chinese watermelon, Nanhui has very strict protection for 8424, whether it is price control, quality, seed protection, or even pollination. It will not flow to the truck.
Of course, the truck melon is also very sweet.
On the contrary, I think that those varieties of melons are not as sweet as truck melons.
By the way, Mimi would like to ask, do you feel that the fruit is sweet now, but it lacks a bit of flavor?
I mean, the layers are very thin. Ordinary fruits are sweet, sour, sweet, and fragrant. Anyway, it is a mixture of several flavors, but the current fruit is only sweet.
And then... there is nothing.
My grandfather planted a loquat tree without fertilizers, relying on its photosynthesis. Every year when the loquat is ripe, it will attract a lot of birds. The top of the tree is reserved for the birds, and the bottom of the tree is reserved for us. The core is big, but sour. Sweet and delicious.
The author Jun Taobao will also buy strawberry seedlings, so I planted them myself. Of course, I bought strawberry seedlings of a certain variety, and let it grow for a long time. If the pollination does not affect the taste at all, it really surpasses all varieties. strawberry.
Rubbing hands, so it was my one time dream to grow all the strawberry varieties aside.
