Chapter 447: Feeling a bit like a vacation

Thinking that the time was about right, Shen Huazheng opened the lid of the pot, and the plump white meat dragon suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

The rich aroma of meat, along with the hot steam, penetrated into the nostrils of everyone in the kitchen.

Princess Lejia couldn't help but take a deep breath of the fragrance in the air: "It smells so good!!"

Zhou Ying stared at the plump meat dragon in the pot and said, "Looking at it this way, it does look a bit like a dragon entrenched in the pot. No wonder it's called a meat dragon."

Princess Lejia also nodded to show her agreement.

At first, she thought it was clearly a long, rolled-shaped bun, and a bit like a flower roll.

I don’t understand why it got a name like “Meat Dragon” which is both cute and domineering.

Looking at it now, I kind of understand it.

Of course, just a little.

She still thinks it should be called a "long meat bun".

Chen Huazheng smiled and said, "You can eat it soon."

As she spoke, she asked someone to take the meat dragon out of the pot and cut it into pieces.

The meat dragon is also called the lazy dragon. It is said that it got the names "meat dragon" and "lazy dragon" because it looks like a lazily lying dragon.

Its preparation is similar to that of flower rolls, but the difference is that the meat dragon will not be cut until it is steamed.

This method can lock in the deliciousness of the meat filling to the greatest extent, and the soup will not be wasted.

As the meat dragon was cut into pieces, the aroma of meat in the air became more intense.

Princess Lejia couldn't help swallowing and looked at the cut meat dragon again.

"The meat filling inside this meat dragon is wrapped layer by layer, and it looks like auspicious clouds."

Zhou Ying: "It does look a bit like it. It seems that this meat dragon is fragrant and has a good meaning."

The meat dragon was cut into small pieces. Through the cut cross-section, you can see that the meat filling inside is shaped like auspicious clouds, which is very beautiful.

Chen Huazheng had the cut pieces of meat dragon placed on a porcelain plate and put it back into its original long strip shape.

"Okay, you can eat now."

The three of them looked at each other and walked out of the kitchen tacitly.

At this time, the meat dragon is ready, the milk tea is also ready, and the afternoon tea officially begins.

*

The maids brought the meat dragon and milk tea to the table and placed them in front of Shen Huazheng and the other two.

In addition to these, there were some candied fruits and nuts on the table.

Zhou Ying looked at Princess Lejia and said, "Aning, don't you like jasmine milk tea the most? Try this jasmine oolong milk tea made with goat milk."

Shen Huazheng also said: “If this jasmine oolong milk tea tastes good, next time we can try to use goat milk to make jasmine milk cap.”

[You can also use goat milk to make butter for Cousin Ying and Aning to try. The butter made with goat milk will have a richer flavor. ]

Zhou Ying & Princess Le Jia:!!!

Very good! !

The days with Zheng'er/Zheng Zheng are spent discovering and tasting delicious food.

"Okay! I'll try it right away."

Princess Lejia took a big sip of jasmine oolong milk tea through the reed straw.

When you first take a sip, you can taste the mellowness of goat milk, followed by the refreshing taste and slight astringency of tea leaves, with a long aftertaste.

Goat milk is fragrant and silky smooth.

Paired with freshly brewed oolong tea, it's simply amazing.

If you savor it carefully, the aroma of tea and goat milk blend in your mouth.

Princess Lejia swallowed the milk tea in her mouth and said, "It tastes good. This jasmine oolong milk tea tastes good."

Milk tea made from goat's milk is indeed very fragrant and is no worse than that made from cow's milk.

As she spoke, she took another big sip of milk tea through the straw.

So comfortable~~

When I first arrived here a few days ago, I was a little tired from the journey, and there was also the incident with the post station and Jiang Ran.

She was very wary of everything here, and she always felt a little nervous every time she went out.

I've just relaxed a little over the past two days, and now I'm starting to feel like I'm on vacation.

Zhou Ying also slowly took a sip of milk tea through the straw.

Although she made this herself, she hasn't tasted it yet.

The milk tea has a smooth texture, sliding across the tip of your tongue like velvet, and your mouth is instantly filled with its mellow aroma.

When processing goat's milk, the mutton smell is removed while retaining the freshness and fragrance of the goat's milk.

After taking a sip, you can clearly feel that the milk flavor in this cup of milk tea is richer than before.

Compared with cow's milk, milk tea made from goat's milk has a more delicate taste and a unique aroma.

You can tell it's extraordinary as soon as you taste it, and it makes you feel comfortable.

After taking a big sip of milk tea, Zhou Ying suddenly felt refreshed, and even her brows relaxed.

No wonder Aning praised it highly, it really tastes good.

Zhou Ying's eyes became warm as she suddenly remembered what Shen Huazheng had just said about using goat's milk to make butter.

She should also think about what other food or drinks can be made with mutton and goat's milk, and not always let Zheng'er suffer alone.

Chen Huazheng also drank the milk tea happily. The tea soup was warm and smooth in her mouth, with a slight bitterness and a little sweetness in its freshness.

When you sip it carefully, you can feel the freshness of the tea and the mellowness of goat's milk intertwined with the subtle scent of jasmine. Every part of your mouth is filled with this gentle and lingering fragrance.

The unique gentleness of goat milk, accompanied by a sweet fragrance, goes straight into the heart, giving people a sense of warmth, happiness and satisfaction.

Princess Lejia drank several sips of milk tea before she contentedly picked up her chopsticks and started eating the plump meat dragon.

Although she thought the meat dragon was a bit like a steamed bun and a bit like a flower roll at first, it tasted completely different.

Baozi is just stuffing inside, but roulong is made of layers of dough wrapped with layers of meat stuffing.

The meat dragon is mellow and full in the mouth, the dough is extremely soft and the filling is fragrant.

One bite and it’s super satisfying.

Although meat dragon and meat bun have almost the same combination of ingredients, there is a subtle difference in the taste.

The dough and meat of the meat dragon are distributed very evenly, and there is meat filling in each layer.

Take a gentle bite, the outer layer of the dough is fluffy and soft, while the inner layer of the dough has been soaked in gravy and is filled with a fresh and fragrant aroma.

As you chew it, the delicious taste of mutton and the natural wheat aroma of flour intertwine in your mouth, leaving a long aftertaste.

One can't help but immerse oneself in this wonderful taste experience.

Princess Lejia swallowed the meat dragon in her mouth and took another sip of milk tea: "It's delicious, softer and more fragrant than steamed buns, and more chewy than dumplings."

Zhou Ying picked up a piece of meat dragon with chopsticks and tasted it carefully: "It's really delicious."

She completely agreed with Princess Lejia that meat dragons were more interesting and delicious than meat buns.

The meat dragon is soft and tasty, with layers of dough and meat filling.

There are surprises on every level.

The sweet and soft dough, paired with the tender and juicy meat filling, is simply perfect.

The outermost layer of dough is fluffy and soft, while the inner layer is full of gravy, salty, fresh and juicy.

When you take a bite, you can taste two completely different textures of the dough.

As you chew, every bite is a perfect blend of the aroma of meat, sauce and noodles.

Every bite is full of endless deliciousness and layers of flavor.

The mellow taste is simply intoxicating.

Princess Lejia: "I think this meat dragon is very suitable for sale in the northwest."

The mutton here is first-rate, and people in the northwest also like to eat all kinds of mutton-related food.

If we open a branch here, Roulong will definitely sell very well.

Chen Huazheng took another sip of milk tea: "I made the meat dragon for you today because of this idea. Animal husbandry is the main industry here, and there are many cattle and sheep. If you want to open a restaurant, you have to make some food related to beef and mutton."

Zhou Ying nodded: "I think so too. And meat dragon can be sold not only in the northwest, but also in the capital. There are also food and drinks made from goat milk, which should also be very popular."

Not only people in the northwest like to eat mutton-related food, but people in Beijing also like it.

As long as the mutton is handled well, the mutton smell can be removed.

Princess Lejia swallowed the meat dragon in her mouth and said: "You are really thoughtful. The meat dragon is so delicious, the diners in the capital will definitely like it."

Chen Huazheng: "Meat dragons can't just be stuffed with mutton, we can also make some with other meats."

The original filling of the meat dragon was pork, but Shen Huazheng made a temporary change considering the actual situation in Yuzhang County.

When I return to the capital, or if I want to open a restaurant in an area where animal husbandry is underdeveloped, I can completely replace it with other meats.

Princess Lejia: "Zhengzheng, can meat dragon be made into other meat fillings?"

Chen Huazheng smiled and said, "Of course you can. You can also use pork or beef. You can even try other meats. As long as you mix the meat filling well, it will be delicious."

Although the dough is the same, the fillings inside are different, so the taste is naturally different.

Princess Lejia drank a sip of milk tea happily: "People here like to drink goat's milk so much, they will definitely like milk tea made with goat's milk. If we want to open a milk tea shop in the northwest, we can use goat's milk instead of cow's milk."

Chen Huazheng thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't have to completely replace cow's milk, but goat's milk can be used to make milk tea, which can be regarded as giving diners another choice."

In fact, in addition to the northwest, Shen Huazheng also plans to make several milk teas made from goat milk after returning to the capital.

However, the goat milk in Beijing is not as abundant as that in the northwest, so it has to be made into a limited edition.

However, diners in the capital don’t like goat milk as much as people here, so there is no need to prepare too much.

Zhou Ying and Chen Huazheng thought of the same thing: "Many of the food and drinks we plan to sell here will also be very popular in the capital. It's just that there are some differences in eating habits between the two places, so we need to make some adjustments."

Princess Lejia: "Yes, we have to write all of this down. Which ones are suitable for selling in the northwest, and which ones are suitable for selling in the capital. What are the differences in taste and ingredients between the two places?"

Just like now in the northwest, it is really pleasant to eat mutton dragon and drink milk tea made from goat's milk.

But if she returned to the capital, she would definitely want to eat something different.

It still depends on the place.

Chen Huazheng: "Since we still have to stay here for a while, we can first express our ideas about opening a semicolon, and then slowly add to it. Then we can finalize those matters one by one, and it will basically be done."

All things are difficult at the beginning, and now potato planting has officially begun.

Next time she won't be as busy as she was in the past few days. If there are no special circumstances, working about half a day a day will be enough.

The remaining half day was spent eating, drinking, thinking about new dishes and opening a new branch.

As long as we have a specific plan, the next things will be easy and we just need to proceed step by step.

Zhou Ying and Princess Lejia agreed with Shen Huazheng's words. When they opened a restaurant and a food court in Beijing, they also started from scratch. They didn't know anything at the beginning, and then they slowly added in little by little.

Coming to the Northwest to open a branch was just a change of location, continuing the same old routine.

I feel clueless now, maybe it's just that I haven't started yet.

Perhaps with a good start, all subsequent problems will be easily solved.

Princess Lejia picked up a licorice olive and said, "I think candied fruits, especially licorice olives, will also be very popular. They are delicious and can soothe the throat."

After tasting a licorice olive, Princess Lejia was conquered by its wonderful taste.

Take it to your mouth and take a bite, the crisp taste instantly bursts between your lips and teeth.

Then, the sweetness of licorice and the slight astringency of olives blend skillfully on the tip of the tongue, and the mouth is immediately filled with fragrance and a long-lasting freshness.

While chewing, there is a light and sweet aftertaste lingering in the throat for a long time.

Zhou Ying: "Zheng'er and I have discussed this before. Preserved fruits can be classified into different categories. Some are eaten directly as snacks, while others have certain benefits for the body. For example, this licorice olive has the effect of moistening the throat and relieving sore throats."

Previously, their attention was on the restaurant's dishes and the expansion of various areas of the food court. Next, they will focus on the subdivision of various types of food, including snacks such as dried fruits and candied fruits.

They all knew that when Shen Huazheng studied food, she not only paid attention to the taste, but also paid attention to the benefits of the ingredients to the body, striving to make it delicious and healthy.

Therefore, subdividing the effects of food is also a way to attract diners.

Chen Huazheng: "Yes, when the plums are ripe, we can also make some jiaozi. Jiaozi is not only delicious, but also good for the body."

When Shen Huazheng was young, every time she drank bitter Chinese medicine, her grandfather would use Jiayingzi to coax her.

The jiaozi is sour and sweet, with thick flesh and small core, and is delicious.

Like licorice and olive, Jiayingzi also has the effects of promoting salivation and quenching thirst, relieving sore throat and reducing swelling.

It can also help digest food, eliminate accumulation, and refresh the mind.

When I return to the capital, I must find some time to sort the preserved fruits and candied fruits.

[Wuweijiang, Laoxianghuang, Huangpishi, Chenpimei can also be classified with Jiayingzi. You can find some time to try to make it. 】

Zhou Ying: (*^_^*)

Zheng'er is always able to draw inferences from one instance. By then, she should be able to make a name for herself in the northwest just by relying on these preserved fruits.

Princess Lejia: ()

Although these names sound a bit strange, according to her experience, the weirder the name of the food, the more delicious it is sometimes.

Just like that, during an afternoon tea time, the three of them talked a lot about their ideas on opening semicolons.

Although it has not officially started yet, they now have a preliminary plan in their minds about opening a branch in the northwest.
