Millet pumpkin porridge.

Mushroom tofu, stir-fried meat with lettuce.

Three simple and light dishes that look delicious.

The palace maid Yu Shu just took a bite of mushroom and her tongue was about to be eaten.

How can there be such delicious mushrooms? The mushrooms absorb the fresh fragrance of tofu and shrimp roe, and the rich taste of starch thickening makes this bite of mushrooms unforgettable.

The delicious taste of mushrooms is between your lips and teeth. You don’t even need to bite it with your teeth, the juice bursts directly in your mouth.

“It tastes better than meat!”

This was the subconscious feeling of the palace maid Yu Shu.

Su Wan smiled. It is true that meat is no match for mushrooms.

She first tasted the millet and pumpkin porridge. The ratio of water to millet was just right, and the lard added further flavor. The unique fruity and vegetable sweet aroma of the pumpkin enriched the taste of the millet and pumpkin porridge.

Most importantly, this porridge is especially good for the stomach and is very suitable for the Deputy Chief Eunuch of the Imperial Household Department who has a bad stomach.

Eating half a bowl will definitely whet your appetite.

And Yu Shu has already started eating the tofu in the mushroom tofu.

Needless to say, the taste of tofu is great. As long as the fishy smell is removed, it is definitely a dish suitable for all ages. The tofu itself can also absorb the soup, and with the deliciousness of the mushrooms, it has a different flavor.

This mushroom tofu dish made Yu Shu suddenly feel that there was nothing good about eating meat. It was not as delicious as this dish.

As she thought this, her chopsticks couldn't help but pick up the lettuce and meat slices on the plate, and she instinctively avoided the lettuce.

It's because I ate too much lettuce in the west kitchen these days. Every time I see this green piece of lettuce, I subconsciously avoid it.

When you put the meat slices in your mouth, you will feel the tender starch on the meat slices that have been lightly fried in vegetable oil, and the unique burnt aroma from frying in fat.

It takes no effort at all to eat this piece of meat, and you can smell the meaty aroma immediately.

When you pick up the lettuce with chopsticks again, what greets you is the unique fragrance of the lettuce.

It doesn't mean Shu reacted, the lettuce slices have already been eaten.

The slightly crispy lettuce retains its fresh and tender texture, and the refreshing taste overwhelms all the dishes that were just eaten.

Finally, take a sip of millet pumpkin porridge.

This combination is perfect!

Mushrooms, tofu, then the meat slices with the richest taste, and finally some refreshing lettuce to relieve the greasiness, and then top it off with millet and pumpkin porridge.

After a meal, you will feel relaxed and full of energy.

This is what food is all about!

This is the power that delicious food brings to people!

Compared to this, what is the Western Kitchen!

Even dogs won’t eat it!

This sentence was also said by the young eunuch Wei Jun in the Imperial Household Department.

When he was carrying the food box back to the Imperial Household Department, he saw his master about to eat the porridge he had cooked.

Wei Jun directly snatched the bowl from his master and said confidently: "Master, your cooking skills are not that good, so don't eat it!"

Deputy Manager Chai: ???

Does this little brat deserve a beating?

They were all waiting for Wei Jun to bring out the millet and pumpkin porridge and two dishes in the lunch box.

Deputy Chief Chai's expression changed immediately.

He is well-informed and naturally knows how well such dishes can be cooked.

Lettuce is a very common vegetable, but it is actually the most delicate and difficult to cook because it will become overcooked if you stir-fry it a little more and will become raw if you stir-fry it a little less.

But this dish was cooked extremely well, and it was obvious that it was made by an experienced chef.

The mushroom tofu is even more delicious and juicy.

There is also the millet and pumpkin porridge next to it. It looks so beautiful no matter how you look at it. You don’t even have to eat it, you can already smell the fragrance of the millet porridge.

Who says porridge only tastes bland?

It can obviously be cooked very fragrantly.

But the apprentice was arranging the dishes and chopsticks. Why were there two sets of bowls and chopsticks

Wei Jun immediately said: "Master, it's too lonely for you to eat alone, I will accompany you."

As he said this, he couldn't wait to pick up some food for his master, and then he quickly took a bite himself.

That’s the taste!

Wei Jun couldn’t stop thinking about the stir-fried noodles made by Su Wan the last time, so he came up with this good idea overnight.

I ate it again and it was still as delicious as before.

Deputy Manager Chai didn't say much, but started using his chopsticks.

Every dish is suitable for people like him with bad teeth and stomach. Millet porridge is good for the stomach and feels comfortable after eating.

The master and his disciple quickly finished the two plates of food and a small bowl of porridge.

At the end of the meal, both of them looked unsatisfied.

So delicious!

Even Deputy Manager Chai couldn't help but say, "This craftsmanship is simply amazing."

Their Imperial Household Department has always been the area of ​​the Western Kitchen, and he hasn't eaten such delicious meals in many years.

It’s just ordinary ingredients, even the most common ingredients, that can be made into something unique, and even not much seasoning is used.

This is too much to ask of a chef.

The control of all seasonings, the control of heat, and even the steps of serving the dish can determine the success or failure of the dish.

Many people cannot cook to this level of perfection.

Either you have talent or you have experience.

Either you have both, the last one is the best Sichu.

Wei Jun straightened his chest and said, "I told you! Her cooking is really delicious, and you still don't believe me!"

"Did that little palace maid really do it? Don't tell me she's lying." Deputy Chief Steward Chai said subconsciously.

The little girl just now was thin and small, and looked cute, but she didn't look like someone who could cook.

"It's her. I, your disciple, have a keen eye for talent. Isn't that amazing?" When Wei Jun mentioned Su Wan, he felt like he saw his savior. From now on, his food will depend on Su Wan!

It’s not that Wei Jun was exaggerating, but because the food in the west kitchen was too bad.

Until now, the palace servants of the five western government offices have had only two choices: grit their teeth and eat the meals in the western kitchen, or spend money to eat outside the palace.

But the latter is expensive.

He had been in the palace for two years, but the money was still not enough at the end of the month or the beginning of the month, so he had to eat in the west kitchen. Most of his money was spent on eating out of the palace.

Now that Su Wan, who cooks delicious food, has come, how can he not be excited.

Moreover, with only five or six cents of silver a month, both the master and I could eat comfortably. It was simply pie in the sky.

Not only Wei Jun was excited, but Deputy Manager Chai was also happy. If people don't eat well, they will naturally be in a bad mood, not to mention someone like him who has bad teeth and stomach.

Unexpectedly, the young apprentice was quite filial and found a nice little palace maid to cook for him.

Looking at his master’s expression, Wei Jun knew that it was done!

From now on, he and his master will be able to eat meals cooked by Su Wan every day. They are so happy.

The rest of the matters would naturally be taken care of by Master Wei Jun and his apprentice.

When the news reached the West Kitchen, the maids and cooks there were surprised and asked, "Why did they let the two of them go?"

"What else? Do you want to go over there?"

"Yeah, it's a thankless job, and I don't want to do it anyway."

"That's right. Helping out in the small kitchen means more work. I have to go back to the big kitchen every hour in the morning and at noon. It's too tiring."

"So this kind of job can only be done by a good maid."

Amidst everyone's sympathetic gazes, Su Wan's expression remained the same as before, and nothing could be seen.

On the contrary, Yu Shu was somewhat happy.

In fact, before the news came, she and Su Wan already knew that the young eunuch Wei Jun had specially found them.

He said that his master, who was also the deputy chief steward of the Imperial Household Department, was very satisfied with the dishes cooked by Su Wan.

Ask them if they are willing to continue cooking for Deputy Manager Chai. Not only can they eat with him, but they can also earn extra money.

Su Wan, the cook, received five cents of silver per month, and Yu Shu, the kitchen helper, received one cent of silver.

Even though the money is not much, Yu Shu is willing to do it!

Choose between the mushy, half-cooked porridge in the dark cafeteria or the millet and pumpkin porridge made by Su Wan, Yu Shu chose the latter without hesitation.

Besides, there is money to be made.

But Su Wan looked very calm, and even smiled and said, "I will definitely succeed in trying the dish."

This can only be said if one is absolutely confident in one's cooking skills.

But there is nothing wrong with this sentence.

Anyone who has tasted Su Wan's cooking will agree with this statement.

Anyway, when Wei Jun was watching, he couldn't help but think of what his master had said, telling him not to be too happy too soon. With Su Wan's cooking skills, sooner or later she would be poached by some empress in the palace, and then the master and disciple would not be able to eat such meals anymore.

Eat now and cherish it!

No matter what, it’s enough to be able to eat it recently!

There is a reason why Su Wan is so confident. Look at where she came from. That is China, where delicious food is everywhere. Moreover, in her era, the food culture is even more dazzling.

Her mother was able to open a successful private kitchen in a place where delicious food is everywhere, which shows how capable she is.

She learned it from her mother!

Even if time and space change, she will inherit her mother's craftsmanship, live healthily and freely, and make up for all the regrets of being sick in her previous life!

The other people in the west kitchen were sympathetic, but there were two others who did not have such expressions.

They are Chunxiang and Xiaoyue who have tasted Su Wan’s cooking.

Su Wan, Chunxiang, Xiaoyue and Yu Shu, the four new palace maids are now assigned to one room.

We have a very good relationship on weekdays.

Chunxiang and Xiaoyue have also tasted Su Wan's cooking.

When I thought about Su Wan cooking, I subconsciously looked at her eagerly.

Oh my god!

Who doesn’t want to eat the food cooked by Su Wan!

In order to eat the food she cooks, they are all willing to work harder!

Yu Shu felt a little embarrassed, but she would not give up this opportunity because this was the meal cooked by Su Wan.

What the other people in the west kitchen avoided was something they wished for in the eyes of these three people. Su Wan was amused and confused by their expressions.

It's not that exaggerated. Even though she thinks her cooking is delicious, it's not to be this bad.

Su Wan coughed lightly and said, "I'll make egg pancakes tomorrow morning. Bring one piece for the two of you. Remember to save some for later."

It would be difficult to give more, after all, Wei Jun and the others paid for the food.

It was reasonable for her to have dinner with Yu Shu, but not for others. Tomorrow she would save her share for Chunxiang and Xiaoyue.

Even so, I have to tell Wei Jun. It's not good to take other people's things privately.

Hearing Su Wan's words, Chunxiang Xiaoyue's eyes immediately lit up and she began to nod vigorously.

One piece is fine!

They are not picky!

Wanwan eats whatever she is given!

Looking at their expressions, a figure flashed through Su Wan's mind.

That is the young man in black in Guandi Temple.

I walked very fast in the morning, and was particularly afraid to see his expression when he ate the porridge from the western kitchen.

It is a torture for her to feed others such meals!

Forget it, don’t think about it. Tomorrow is her first day to earn extra money!

Su Wan felt extremely happy at the thought of making money and eating the meals she cooked.

But besides making omelettes, what kind of porridge should I make tomorrow morning?
