Little Palace Maid (Food)

Su Wan transmigrated to become a small palace maid in the Imperial Food Department. She diligently lived her days in the vast palace, all to save enough money and one day go home to pick up her aun...

Chapter 135 (1)

Su Wan can now fall asleep peacefully only when she hears the croaking of frogs every night, otherwise she always feels like something is missing.

Everyone in Yuhua Palace knows that frog is delicious and especially fragrant. How can we not worry?

The way of eating that spread from the Third Prince's palace was actually liked by everyone in the entire Yuhua Palace. You know, although this thing is delicious, it is everywhere in the mountains and plains.

The respectable and noble people would ask others to arrest them, and the palace servants below could do it themselves.

Anyway, everyone can taste it, so the trend of eating frog became popular for a while.

Although it was banned within two days, it was just a call not to kill frogs at will. Who would say anything if you ate a few in private?

Especially the eldest prince, who is said to be obsessed with frog meat.

At least fifty stone frogs are killed every day, and the frog legs are carefully removed and fried for eating, or made into dumplings with frog meat filling.

The reason, of course, was that the eldest prince felt that there was too little meat on a frog leg and it was too troublesome to eat. He disliked the trouble, so naturally someone did it for him.

But how much meat is there in fifty frog legs? So Su Wan estimated that the amount the eldest prince eats in a day is probably more than many people.

Fortunately, Xie Pei and six university scholars came out to advocate not eating too much, and the trend has improved a bit.

I can only say that the frogs are so miserable!

Met this group of people from Yuhua Palace.

However, Su Wan thought that eating so much now was probably just for the novelty, and it would be fine after a while, so she was completely relieved.

Frogs, stop dreaming!

She is thinking of a remedy!

If you want to make a trend pass, create a new one!

Is there anything better than ice cream in the summer?

When the superior heard that Su Wan wanted to use Su Shan to replace the stone frog to make it popular in Yuhua Palace, he knew that Su Wan had a new way to make Su Shan and thought it was feasible.

However, the officer still said: "Stone frogs are popular for a while, maybe because they taste good?"

Although the officer hadn't finished speaking, Su Wan understood what he meant.

The stone frog is popular not only because it tastes good, but also because it was highly praised by six great scholars, especially the Grand Scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, who praised it so highly.

You have to know that these six are the benchmarks of the literati of the time. Their every word and action is imitated by students all over the world, so once they praise them, everyone will definitely follow suit.

And because the stone frog is so good, it has become so popular.

To sum up.

If you want your food to become a trend, first, it has to taste good, and second, it has to be promoted by famous celebrities and famous artists!

Ancient people may not understand these words, but this is roughly what they mean.

There is also "Sushan" also called "Sushan", which is roughly equivalent to ancient ice cream. They are all made of cheese and ice. The process is slightly different, but the raw materials are still the same.

Su Wan certainly couldn't create a word out of thin air, so she used the existing "Sushan" instead, and also explained that it was a variation of Sushan, with a different production method.

The superior naturally believed in Su Wan's abilities.

But what she meant was that if one wanted to be truly popular and overwhelm the stone frog, one could not do it at the Shangshisi.

Su Wan nodded: "I will go find the Third Prince and give it to the six university scholars when the time comes."

The stone frog became popular due to the above two reasons. The above process can also be replicated to make ice cream popular.

Although a trick would fail if used three times, she didn't use it three times!

Obviously twice!

Seeing that Su Wan understood immediately, the commander smiled and said, "While making the Su Shan, you can also look after His Highness. His injuries are very serious and he needs to be taken care of."

This is the truth. Su Wan has seen the injuries on Xie Pei's body and can only say that if it weren't for his resilience, others would have been unable to bear those injuries.

"So I plan to transfer you over there in the name of cooking. Whether it's making crispy noodles or cooking some nourishing meals, it's convenient." The officer said, "Are you really healed from your injury? I'll send you two more helpers."

Su Wan thought about it and shook her head: "It's okay, I can do it myself, there are people over there to help."

It’s not that Su Wan doesn’t want to help, but Xie Pei is so sensitive. If something goes wrong with the person he brings, it might become a loophole. In this case, it’s better for her to go alone.

Didn’t we discover last time that there were spies in the Shangshi Department, and it was discovered by accident? Who knows how many such spies there are, and who knows if they are hidden very deeply.

Seeing that Su Wan agreed, the officer said, "Okay, you only need to be responsible for the meals for the Third Prince, and the Imperial Food Department will deliver the meals for the others."

The matter was settled.

Su Wan never expected that she would come back after just a few days.

And this time I will be working for Xie Pei all day, making a nourishing soup or some medicinal food every day. The rest of the main meals will be taken care of by the Shangshi Department.

This time Su Wan was sure that she was indeed here for vacation.

But there is a reason for this. After all, he has to save Frog and make ice cream, and cook for Xie Pei at the same time.

Not to mention Su Wan, Xie Pei also raised his eyebrows slightly.

He also didn't expect that Su Wan would come back because of the last meal of dry-pot stone frog.

However, seeing that she looked serious and wanted to save the stone frog, she still tried hard not to curl the corners of her mouth.

I didn’t expect that frogs are not only delicious, but also useful.

Since Su Wan said she wanted to use ice cream to save Frog, she acted quickly.

And his eyes immediately fell on a dessert that he had made earlier.

That's egg waffle.

Egg waffles are popular enough.

What if you wrap the ice cream in egg waffles?

This was not Su Wan's own idea, but a famous street snack in later generations.

The golden egg waffles are wrapped in a paper tube, which looks like an ice cream cone. The egg waffles serve as the outer skin of the cone, and then the inside is stuffed with ice cream with a rich milky flavor. If you like, you can also sprinkle some green tea powder and fruit pulp on it.

This kind of egg waffle ice cream is soft and warm on the outside, and cool and milky on the inside.

One is warm and soft, the other is cool and soft.

The combination of the two can definitely bring an impact.

But the egg waffle cannot be too hot, otherwise the ice cream will melt, so the temperature is just right.

Or you can just make the egg waffle skin crispy and completely replace the ice cream cone skin, which is also fine. Both methods are delicious anyway!

Given the foreshadowing of egg waffles, the appearance of egg waffle ice cream doesn’t seem strange.

Now that you have decided what to do, start doing it immediately!

Egg waffles are easy to make. The people on Xie Pei’s side already know how to make them, so it’s not that difficult.

Now the focus is on the ice cream inside.

It sounds simple to make ice cream, but there are many ways to make it delicious, and of course there are also many ways to fail.

But for the frogs! We must not fail!

Now the ingredients are ready, including eggs, milk, and heavy cream, which is cream with a higher fat content.

These things might be hard to find in other places, but with the dessert department of Zaliku here, there would basically be no problem. Su Wan thought about it and found some incense grass, which is vanilla.

Just make vanilla ice cream, a classic flavor that almost no one can resist.

After the vanilla ice cream is made, make a few traditional flavors, such as basil, lychee, black plum cinnamon, etc.

There's too much to do anyway.

The only drawback is that there is no cocoa powder yet.

But now there is an inexhaustible supply of what is at hand.

After getting the vanilla, you cannot use it immediately. Instead, you have to boil it into vanilla sauce and let it cool down before adding it to the ice cream.

I should have used pear jam and osmanthus jam from the dessert department earlier.

There is no need to spend so much effort. Fortunately, cooking is a pleasure for her.

After the ingredients are prepared, you can start cooking. Use only the egg yolks. Mix the egg yolks with the cream and heat them slowly over water. While heating, add the vanilla sauce, powdered sugar, and milk in batches so that they can be blended more thoroughly.

After everything has been boiled into beige ice cream liquid, you can put it in an ice container and refrigerate it. After one and a half to two hours, take it out and stir it manually with a special mixer.

Xie Pei didn't even need to give any instructions, the guards around him took over immediately. Could Miss Su Wan do it herself?

Of course not!

Besides, Miss Su Wan always thinks about them. They will also have a share in making the Sushan this time. Can they just watch?

If they were watching, His Highness would have to do it himself.

Su Wan said that as martial artists, they quickly created bubbles in the refrigerated ice cream liquid, and then put it into the ice cellar with a lower temperature.

When we finished all this, it was already noon.

Wanting to eat delicious food is just that complicated.

At noon, Su Wan was about to cook, but Xie Pei stopped her and said, "It's not easy to make this ice cream. Let's take a break and eat the food sent by Shangshisi."

To be honest, it’s not tiring, after all, there are people doing the heavy work.

All that's left is to wait.

So this was even kind of easy to do?

However, Su Wan was used to finding the seat where she usually sat, as she was very familiar with this side hall.

After lunch, I took a short break and continued making ice cream.

Put the ice cream liquid with bubbles in the freezer for the same hour and a half, and then continue beating.

The liquid produced in this way already looks like the common ice cream.

The key is to use uniform stirring to create small bubbles in the ingredients, which then causes the liquid to expand and a hint of sweet fragrance to come out.

Su Wan looked at the mixed vanilla ice cream and continued to do it herself. She simply found a small round spoon to scoop it and then rolled it into beautiful ice cream balls.

The egg waffles were fried and cooled down a bit, then Su Wan stuffed them into cardboard, forming a semicircle with a space in the middle.

Place ice cream balls the size of a baby's fist in the empty space one by one, until they are larger than the egg waffles and have a pointed tip, then sprinkle with dried osmanthus flowers.

The egg waffles are golden yellow, the vanilla ice cream inside is beige, and it is garnished with light yellow dried osmanthus flowers.

This snack is so pretty it could be painted!

Both the shape and the color combination are very interesting.

Su Wan found some special cutlery and fixed the pointed bottom of the egg waffle ice cream into the light green bottle with a narrow mouth and a wide belly.

Classic light yellow and light green combination.

Is this still an afternoon snack? It’s clearly a beautiful ornament!

Everyone around was stunned.

What is Su Wan thinking? Why can she always make delicious food that looks good?

But when it comes to good looks, the jet-black stinky tofu is something to behold!

Let’s not talk about those for now, because there were enough ice creams made. Su Wan made a lot of egg waffle ice creams neatly, and the first one was definitely Xie Pei’s.

The remaining guards and attendants also have it.

Herself?

She must eat it too!

After going through so much effort, in addition to saving the frogs, it is also important to eat them ourselves!

Is there anything more comforting than this for a summer dessert?

The cool and smooth ice cream has a rich milky aroma and sweet vanilla flavor.

When you put it in your mouth, a slight cool breeze seems to penetrate into your pores, making you feel comfortable all over. The sweet taste of vanilla brings an unparalleled experience to your taste buds.

This is the experience of simply eating ice cream. The ice cream, combined with the egg waffles on the outside, makes the delicate taste even softer.

Eating the two together is a completely different experience.

There is also the crispy outer layer of the egg waffle, which makes a crunchy sound when eaten, and my brain is shouting two words: delicious!

The ice cream is invincible.

The egg waffles are also super delicious.

Which genius invented the combination of these two?

Everyone in the side hall who has eaten the egg waffle ice cream has completely fallen in love with this delicacy.

If you compare it with frog, there is no way to compare it. After all, one is meat and the other is a snack. I don’t know how to choose.

But this is summer!

So egg waffle ice cream is still slightly better!

You have to eat this even if your stomach is empty!

Want to make the summer less bitter? Have some egg waffle ice cream!

On the afternoon of July 2nd, at the side hall of Yuhua Palace, the Third Prince was staying.

The Minister of Personnel, who was here on official business, saw the snacks brought by his subordinates and took a few more looks at them out of curiosity.

This snack is interesting and looks pretty good.

When Third Prince Xie Pei saw the Minister of Personnel take a closer look, he asked someone to bring up another portion.

The serious and cold Minister of Personnel said: "I never like to eat these snacks."

Xie Pei nodded slightly, his attention seemed to be focused on the official documents.

Upon seeing this, the Minister of Personnel had to try it. According to the eunuchs beside him, the cruel minister, who never liked snacks, took a bite while having afternoon tea.

So soft.

What is this?

What's inside is Sushan? How can Sushan taste so refreshing?

By the time the Third Prince finished his official business, the whole mountain of soft and crispy food had been eaten up.

Xie Pei naturally pretended that he saw nothing and just discussed official business seriously.

But the Minister of Personnel was fidgeting. He should have known not to say that. Now it seemed like a slap in the face.

But think about my little daughter at home, she likes these things the most, and it’s been a hot summer recently, so she doesn’t eat much. Wouldn’t it be nice if I could bring her some soft and crispy noodles?

"Well, Third Prince, do you have any more of these soft and crispy noodles? Can you bring two more back for me? My wife and daughter at home are suffering from the summer heat. Although the Yuhua Palace is cool, they can't eat much." The serious and old-fashioned Minister of Personnel felt guilty as he spoke.

Xie Pei nodded: "Okay."

Is it that simple?

Not even a word of ridicule?

Not a word of nonsense?

But thinking about the Third Prince's style of doing things, he has never cared about these things.

The Minister of Personnel had mixed feelings. If it were the saint, he would definitely have to explain a lot.

I don’t use it anymore, and I’m a little uncomfortable with it.

Upon hearing the order, the eunuch in the side hall prepared five or six servings and said, "If you can't finish it right away, put it in an ice container. It can be preserved for a while, but the temperature must be cold."

"If you like it, just send someone to get it. Our Third Prince will not care about these things."

After all, we are still counting on this to save Frog!

In the next two days, not only the people from the six ministries could eat it, but also the Grand Secretary of the Dongke could eat it.

Such a delicious food that can relieve heat and does not affect the local ecology has become the new favorite of Yuhua Palace with the tacit approval of the grand secretaries.

Some people even shouted that they would die without Sushan in summer!

If there is no Soft and Crispy Mountain, life would be worse than death!

Why are you getting more and more exaggerated?

But think about it, in the hot summer, it is now the peak of summer, being able to eat such a cool delicacy in the hottest afternoon, that is the coolest happiness in summer!

Ice cream in summer is so important!

The grand secretaries loved it, the officials from the six ministries loved it, and their families were even more eager to eat it.

With the recipe circulating privately, every household started making soft and crispy mountains!

But if you were to ask where in the entire Yuhua Palace the soft-serve ice cream is the most delicious, it would have to be the Third Prince's. I heard that they already have rose-flavored ice cream, grapefruit-flavored ice cream, and lychee-flavored ice cream.

It can even be mixed with tapioca pearls and eaten as ice water.

The ice cream here at Xie Pei is so good that it has been praised by many people.

The eldest prince was not to be outdone, and ordered his chefs to immediately start developing more delicious and more beautiful Sushan, otherwise there would be severe punishment.

Unexpectedly, the chefs and cooks of the eldest prince's mother, Concubine Jiang, actually researched several ways to eat, and they were talked about a lot.

Seeing this, the second prince had no choice but to compete, and even went to make orange juice himself.

Unfortunately, Xie Pei just happened to launch an orange soda, which immediately became the new favorite of the summer.

Although after the orange soda incident, Xie Pei was too lazy to come up with any new ideas and continued to focus on official duties.

But the eldest prince and the second prince felt like they were slapped in the face.

No matter where you go, you'll hear this.

"Why is it that the Third Prince can't even compare to the things that the First and Second Princes can make?"

"Yes, not only official business is not allowed, but also these small matters are not allowed."

"It's not a small matter. Many officials are grateful for the food that can relieve the bitter summer heat."

"Yes, and the latest ice smoothie powder, I heard that everyone in the palace of the Third Prince uses it freely, which reduces a lot of summer heat."

"That's great! How come the eldest and second princes can't compare to this?"

"Some people said before that the Third Prince was cold and unkind, but he seems to be a nice guy."

These rumors almost drove them both crazy.

How come just a little thing done by Xie Pei could cause such a shock to the entire Yuhua Palace, and the eldest prince was so angry that he refused to eat stone frogs!

The frogs breathed a sigh of relief!

He immediately ordered his subordinates to research more things to relieve the heat so that they could be used by his ministers.

Suddenly, everyone in Yuhua Palace started an ice drink competition!

It's no exaggeration to say that it's a competition. The main contestants are the eldest prince and the second prince. They both compete to come up with new iced drinks and try to outdo the third prince Xie Pei.

Unfortunately, Xie Pei didn't even look at them, it was like a punch hitting cotton.

But even though the incident was so serious, the palace servants of Yuhua Palace actually thought it was okay? Because they benefited from the fight between the princes.

But if we have to express gratitude, we should thank the Third Prince. This is the first time that the Third Prince has done this, and he really cares about the officials and palace maids.

The other two are purely comparative.

Fortunately, these words did not reach their ears, otherwise they would definitely go crazy.

The popularity of this ice drink began, and the stone frogs of Laixi Mountain finally escaped a disaster. However, this incident made the villagers make a lot of money, and they were also prepared. Otherwise, why not raise some stone frogs? So that the nobles can buy the freshest stone frogs when they come to Yuhua Palace to escape the summer heat?

When Su Wan heard the news from Xie Pei, she raised her eyebrows slightly.

It’s good to farm stone frogs.

If you raise the fish yourself, they will have fewer parasites, be similar in size, have more delicious meat, and will not damage the ecological environment. It is simply the perfect way to deal with it.

The villagers can benefit more from it, killing two birds with one stone!

When talking about this, Xie Pei picked out a document from the official documents and gave it to Su Wan: "Take a look at this."

This was not the first time that she was asked to read official documents. Su Wan had basically refused before.

But Xie Pei said: "Do you still remember Dawenzhuang? About Dawenzhuang."

Dawen Village is the village in the northern suburbs that suffered from the fake monk.

Su Wan really couldn't refuse, after all, she had been with them before, but anything that happened over there had to be documented.

When I opened it, I knew the reason.

Dawenzhuang has a bumper harvest of tomatoes.

It became the place with the largest number of tomatoes planted in the villages near the outskirts of Beijing. Because of the ketchup egg noodles in the Chunri Qionglin Banquet, they seized the opportunity and immediately started planting spring tomatoes, waiting to harvest them in summer and autumn.

It is now July and the early red tomatoes are ready to be picked.

So as the price of tomatoes in Kyoto has dropped, many places are trying to make ketchup noodles, and the diet of Kyoto residents has become richer!

Don't underestimate it.

However, the complexity and tediousness of government affairs exceeded everyone's imagination. For example, which prices in Beijing are high and which are low, and what are the reasons for the high and low prices, whether it is intentional human intervention or a natural reaction, all need to be investigated one by one to prevent anyone from disrupting prices and people's livelihood.

Therefore, the clerks had to investigate the reasons behind the price changes of tomatoes in Beijing and present them to the officials.

Because the previous events at Da Wen Zhuang had something to do with Xie Pei, this official document was also copied to him.

Now it was in Su Wan's hands again.

But no matter who it is, they will respond with kindness.

It means good.

The villages that were still poor and destitute in the winter and had to rebuild their homes have now regrouped and can even be publicized as advanced deeds.

Unexpectedly, another secret document was stuffed into Su Wan's hand. The previous official document was compiled by the government, while this secret document was compiled privately.

Only by combining the two can you tell the truth from the false. Otherwise, if you only listen to one side of the official document, then don't do it.

The content of this secret text was more detailed, but it was similar to the official document, except for some details circled by Xie Pei.

Why did the villagers of Dawenzhuang have such a keen vision that they started planting tomato egg noodles as soon as they discovered that they were popular?

You know, many people are afraid that the red tomatoes will be difficult to sell, so they are very hesitant.

But they said, that was the tomato egg noodles made by Shangshisi, how could it not be delicious? They didn't hesitate at all and started making it immediately.

Did you plant it just because you believed in Shangshisi?

Fortunately, tomatoes did bring them a lot of profits, which was estimated to be able to completely make up for the losses caused by the fake monks before.

No wonder Xie Pei asked her to look at two documents. This was what he meant.

However, this is just a coincidence, but Da Wenzhuang trusts the food from their Shangshisi too much.

Su Wan read it twice before putting the document back and said seriously, "There are more ways to eat tomatoes than just these. I'll make a few more and I'm sure their tomatoes will sell very well."

Su Wan had long discovered that in the imperial palace, the people who were good at selling goods were naturally the saints, the grand secretaries, and the six ministries.

But looking at the entire Kyoto, if you want to sell something under a banner, the best way is to use the banner of the Imperial Palace.

Palace cuisine, imperial cuisine.

Anyone who hears this will stop in their tracks, but this is also because Su Wan spread the word about many delicious foods outside the palace last year and even this year.

Anyway.

Anyway, the food from the Imperial Palace's Food Department can set the trend in Kyoto.

One is that the food is indeed delicious, and the other is that the idea of ​​imperial power makes everyone full of awe for the palace.

So as long as she makes a few more tomato delicacies, the news will soon spread outside the palace and arouse everyone's interest in eating tomatoes!

As a result, Da Wen Zhuang can profit from it without betraying their trust in Shang Shi Si.

Xie Pei naturally had no objection, but he was also curious about what kind of food Su Wan would cook.

Xie Pei said: "Just do it, I will pass the news to Kyoto."

Although they were staying in the palace to escape the summer heat, they were not completely cut off from information. If anyone wanted to pass on the information, there would naturally be a way to do it.

Su Wan and Xie Pei were both thinking about leading the next trend, but over at the Yuhua Palace, the ice drink competition between the eldest prince and the second prince was just coming to an end.

It is estimated that both of them were reprimanded by the saint for not doing their jobs properly.

Their biological mother and her followers also came to their senses and realized why they had to follow Xie Pei's lead. The more intense the competition on their side, the more honor it would bring to Xie Pei.

In fact, I have discovered this before, but when people get excited, they no longer have any rationality.

By the time he woke up, it was obviously too late.

After several confrontations, many people were already laughing at them in secret.

If the saint did not really dislike Xie Pei, some people would probably have been calling for the eldest son to be made the crown prince, and would have directly sided with Xie Pei.

Fortunately, the saint's attitude is very effective.

The eldest prince and the second prince were secretly glad in their hearts, but the look they gave Xie Pei was obviously more hostile.

When he was not around, the two of them had never made so many embarrassing mistakes. Now they are really embarrassed everywhere.

The ice drink thing has passed, and most of the ice drinks developed are just for fun. After the wave passed, everyone found that ice cream is still everyone’s favorite.

Especially the ice cream with various flavors, there are pure ice cream, a combination of smoothie and ice cream, and meat and fruit ice cream.

The taste is nothing but good.

So it seems obvious who will win this time.

And the name of ice cream came from there, and some people continue to call it soft and crispy ice cream.

No matter what the name is, as long as the food is delicious.

Su Wan even took this opportunity to record all the iced drinks made in Yuhua Palace in the past ten days and then gave them to her superiors.

The superior then gave it to the Ministry of Rites.

If nothing goes wrong, this list of ice drinks will be passed down.

Many recipe lists from Su Wan's time and space were passed down to future generations in this way, so that later generations can get a glimpse of the situation at that time when they read the classics.

As a person from later generations, Su Wan doesn’t want to make archaeology difficult for people thousands of years later?

Therefore, this list clearly states the methods of making various iced drinks, the names of various ingredients, and even the shapes, sizes and habits.

Anyway, when Su Wan finished writing, she only had one feeling.

Archaeologists of later generations will surely love her! When they try to restore ancient recipes, they will definitely thank these people for being bored and competing in ice drinks!

Who made this list so detailed?

A booklet called “Tianxiang Ice Drink” was published.

The Ministry of Rites naturally likes people who take notes at any time. It is said that the Minister of Rites read it several times and praised Su Wan for being meticulous and thoughtful.

To be honest, I have been too idle recently. I either make some soup for Xie Pei to replenish his qi and blood, or make some iced drinks, and then I play chuiwan and go.

He even rode a horse with the help of his guards.

She is here to spend her summer vacation in the palace!

Su Wan summarized and compiled the Tianxiang ice drink booklet, and naturally wrote about egg waffle ice cream, and also vaguely wrote about its origin. This part really cannot be written too literally, otherwise there will be problems.

However, this egg waffle ice cream, now also called soft crispy ice cream, is added with various local flower jams and jams, basically incorporating local characteristics.

Many dignitaries in Yuquan Palace make soft crispy mountains every day. Some are for themselves, and some are for entertaining guests. It has become a regular snack in the home.

It goes without saying that we just have to see who does the best job.

After all, Su Wan is the first one to do this and has experience, so how could she not do a good job?

Naturally, the palace servants she taught also cooked very delicious meals.

But for her, successfully overpowering the stone frog with an ice drink was enough.

What I am making now is tomato, corn and chicken liver soup, which is specially used to replenish qi and blood.

I have made a lot of soups recently, but they were all pork bone, fish soup, etc. This is the first time I have used chicken liver.

The main reason was that there were a lot of chicken livers left over from the cooking at Shangshisi today, so Su Wan took them over when she went to Xie Pei's place in the morning.

And since we’ve been told to make more tomato dishes, we must definitely take action.

Chicken liver is a relatively cheap food and is very suitable for promotion.

Chicken liver is very nutritious, and it is relatively small, easy to eat, and easy to remove the fishy smell. It is a good choice whether it is stir-fried or made into soup.

When cooking chicken liver, be sure to tear off the mucous membrane on the surface and then cut it into small pieces. After doing this, soak it in white vinegar water. Only in this way can the fishy smell be completely removed.

Removing the fishy smell is also a very important step in cooking the liver, and you must be very patient.

Soak the chicken liver for 25 minutes or 30 minutes, then take it out, drain the water and marinate it with cooking wine and starch seasoning.

On the other side, peel the tomatoes and cut into pieces, cut the corn into pieces as well, and cut the ginger slices in the middle into larger pieces so that they will be easier to take out when serving.

The rest of the work is simple. First put in some vegetarian ingredients, add water to cook out the flavor, and then put the remaining tomatoes and corn in. With the previous ingredients as the base, these ingredients can easily be flavored again and taste different.

The last step is to add chicken liver over high heat and then add a little bit of salt.

Add some sesame oil when serving. A very simple tomato, corn and chicken liver soup is ready.

In fact, this kind of sick soup is not easy to make, and it cannot be too greasy. When eating the bone soup before, Su Wan skimmed off all the fat before giving it to Xie Pei.

It can’t be too bland, otherwise it will lose its nourishing effect.

It has to be cooked with the right amount of saltiness, taste good, and help your body grow healthily.

So when making the soup, Su Wan prepared every step carefully.

Mainly, when Su Wan thought of the injuries on Xie Pei's body, she felt a little scared. After all, she came from the modern era and had never seen such injuries with her own eyes. It was right to say that she was scared.

Even if the person who was hurt was a stranger, she would still feel some sympathy, not to mention that it was Xie Pei.

However, when Su Wan makes soup, it is definitely enough for several people.

Not only himself and Xie Pei were injured that day, but also the guards around him, so since everything has been done, let's all heal ourselves together.

This also made many guards feel emotional.

It was not the first time they were injured, or even the first time they were injured so seriously, but it was the first time someone personally took care of the cooking, which allowed them to recover faster.

With His Highness's approval, Su Wan was even freer in the side hall than in the Imperial Food Department.

Also because the tomato, corn and chicken liver porridge is so delicious. It looks light but tastes very fresh.

The word "delicious" is enough to describe the soup.

Anyway, whatever Su Wan cooks is delicious, not to mention the carefully prepared soups.

This tomato-based soup is just the beginning.

Su Wan was rarely cooking in the side hall, and she was mainly thinking about developing various ways to eat tomatoes so that the tomatoes from Dawenzhuang could sell better.

It doesn't just exist in tomato sauce noodles.

In addition to the tomato soup today, Su Wan also plans to make one meat dish and one vegetable dish, and then make tomato and egg noodles, which are more like ketchup noodles, but with a richer aroma and simpler preparation, making it suitable for home consumption.

In fact, when making tomato dishes, Su Wan always tries to keep it homely. Even the meat she chose was chicken, which is not that expensive.

According to Su Wan, tomatoes and beef brisket, and tomatoes and fatty beef, are the perfect match.

Unfortunately, Tianxiang Country has not yet developed to the point where beef can be eaten freely. Su Wan has been here for more than a year and has only eaten it once. She has never had the chance to see it again.

Speaking of time, Su Wan had met her aunt once in April, and should have seen her again in July. Unfortunately, she was in the palace now, so she could only write a letter back and ask Wei Jun to read it for her.

Fortunately, it is not that difficult to leave the palace now, and we can still meet after she returns.

Since the beef couldn’t be eaten anyway, Su Wan tried to choose cheap ingredients for the rest, so that she could truly promote tomatoes.

As long as the tomatoes from Dawenzhuang sell well this year, more people will definitely plant them next year. In the future, tomatoes will not be so expensive to eat, and people will definitely be happy.

Tomatoes are rich in nutrients, easy to grow, and easy to bear fruit, making them very suitable for promotion.

Today's soup is tomato, corn and chicken liver soup, and the staple food is tomato and egg noodles.

The vegetarian dish is tomato and tofu, which is a classic dish. Needless to say, the nutritional value of both is high. It contains both protein and vitamins, making it perfect for home consumption.

The meat dish is tomato chicken meatballs. The tomatoes are boiled into a thick juice, and the chewy chicken meatballs are gently stewed. Just imagine how delicious it is. Both the elderly and children will love it.

First is the method of making tomato tofu, which can be roughly divided into two types. One is the fragrant type, which is to cut the two ingredients into pieces, boil the tofu in boiling water to remove the fishy smell, and then stir-fry the two together.

The one made by Su Wan is the strong-flavored type with a sauce flavor. The tofu is also cut into pieces and boiled in water. After removing the fishy smell, wipe off the moisture, coat it with egg liquid and fry it slowly on low heat in a frying pan until all sides are fried until golden brown.

Then prepare your favorite sauce and set aside. Su Wan also found that Xie Pei couldn't eat spicy food very well, so the sauce was more fragrant and less spicy.

Next, heat the pan and start stir-frying the diced peeled tomatoes, trying to soften the tomatoes and make sure the tomato flavor comes out. Then pour in the fried tofu cubes and stir-fry, then pour in the sauce. Basically, no salt is needed. Sprinkle some chopped green onions and serve directly.

Bright red tomatoes and golden tofu, this dish looks beautiful.

As for the meat dish of tomato chicken meatballs, it is even simpler. The prepared chicken meatballs are simmered in the boiled tomato juice on low heat until the tomato juice penetrates into the chicken meatballs. At this time, the chicken meatballs are not only chewy and delicious, but also sweet and sour.

It’s best eaten with rice.

The remaining tomato and egg noodles can be made by even a novice.

But it tastes exceptionally good.

Xie Pei had never thought that such a simple dish could be so delicious. Of course, it wasn't that simple when it came from Su Wan's hand.

Her meals were always different.

This table of food should be the world's first tomato banquet, with meat and vegetables, staple food and soup.

When Xie Pei sat down, he was first attracted by the color of the food, and then by the subtle sweet aroma, which was the unique taste of tomatoes.

Xie Pei already knew what this tasted like from following Su Wan, but now the impact on him was obviously stronger.

But Su Wan said: "Drink the soup first. It's better to drink half a bowl of soup before the meal."

Not to mention that it can replenish qi and blood.

Xie Pei wanted to say that his wound was almost healed, but he still obediently ate half a bowl of soup, then tomato tofu, and then tomato chicken.

Finally, have some noodles.

Every dish has tomatoes, but with different flavors.

The tomato chicken liver soup is very refreshing and delicious, the tomato tofu has the rich aroma of tofu and tomatoes, and the other has the sour and sweet taste of chicken meatballs.

Not to mention noodles, will eggs and tomatoes taste bad together? Definitely not.

The umami flavor makes the noodles and the vegetables refreshing and delicious. One bowl of noodles may not be enough.

Such delicious food can only come from Su Wan.

That evening, the letter from Yuhua Palace went directly to Kyoto.

The palace delicacies are about to spread in Kyoto again. I believe that many people will quickly master the various ways of eating tomatoes, and then they will be able to unlock many flavors of their own.

This couldn't be better.
