Chapter 329 Fang Qingyu is back
When Zhou Ying and Princess Lejia came to the kitchen of the Shen Mansion to find Shen Huazheng, she was frying the glutinous rice flour in the pot with a spatula.
Princess Lejia was a little curious: "Zhengzheng, what do you want to do?"
Zhou Ying also looked at the situation in the kitchen and suddenly realized that she seemed to be late.
Judging from the situation, Zheng'er should be preparing some snacks.
"Cousin Ying, Aning, you came just in time. I'm frying glutinous rice flour and planning to make snow meringue. We'll have afternoon tea later."
Shen Huazheng was stir-frying the glutinous rice flour while keeping an eye on the situation in the pot.
Seeing that the glutinous rice flour in the pot had turned slightly yellow and had a faint rice aroma, she immediately stopped stir-frying and scooped out the glutinous rice flour for later use.
When the glutinous rice flour is fried, steam will be rising from the steamer, indicating that the glutinous rice paste in the pot is cooked.
When you lift the lid of the pot and the bamboo lid of the bowl, you will see that the glutinous rice paste inside has turned into a translucent dough, exuding a rich milky aroma.
The cook followed the instructions, took out the bowl from the steamer, added an appropriate amount of butter into the bowl while it was still hot, quickly stirred it evenly, and kneaded it repeatedly until the dough fully absorbed the butter.
The glutinous rice dough becomes smooth and docile under the kneading of the cook, and later it can even be torn into a transparent film.
Chen Huazheng sprinkled fried glutinous rice flour on the chopping board to prevent it from sticking, and then had someone divide the glutinous rice dough into small pieces of even size and roll them out with a rolling pin.
Just like making bun skin.
The process of making Xue Mei Niang has been almost completed.
The only things left to do are whipping the cream, making the jelly and stuffing it.
Princess Lejia and Zhou Ying were not idle either. They washed their hands and quickly joined the ranks of making Snow Meringue.
Zhou Ying is now very skilled in the steps of making cream. She directly uses ready-made milk and butter to whip the cream.
Princess Lejia helped cut the fruit into cubes and made jelly with Chen Huazheng.
Everything is ready, only the last step is left.
Shen Huazheng took the lead in demonstrating. She took a piece of rolled glutinous rice dough and put it in a small bowl.
Then fill the concave part of the dough in the bowl with cream, fruit, jelly, etc., and finally wrap it tightly.
A white and plump Xue Mei Niang suddenly appeared before his eyes.
The outer skin of the steamed glutinous rice is translucent, and you can faintly see the color of the filling from the outside.
It's very tempting just by looking at it.
Everyone clearly saw the entire process of Xue Meiniang's birth in Shen Huazheng's hands, and they all imitated her actions.
After a while, round, snow-white little dumplings were placed on the plate.
Princess Lejia smelled the faint milky fragrance and the fresh and pleasant aroma in the air, looked at the snow meringue on the plate, and couldn't help swallowing.
This little fat dumpling looks delicious.
So cute~~
Chen Huazheng found it funny when she saw Princess Lejia drooling with greed: "Let's go, I'll have someone make a pot of good tea, and we can drink it with Xue Mei Niang."
Princess Lejia only had Xue Mei Niang in her eyes now. She nodded hurriedly when she heard this: "Let's go!"
Zhou Ying couldn't help but laugh, and followed the two of them towards the outside of the kitchen.
As soon as the three of them sat down in the yard, they heard a servant come to report that the second young lady from the Duke of Ming's mansion had arrived.
Chen Huazheng and the other two were all stunned. The second young lady of the Duke of Ming's Mansion, isn't that Fang Qingyu! !
Princess Lejia: "Didn't Fang Qingyu go to Jiangnan to relax? Is she back in the capital now?"
Zhou Ying: "Didn't she say at the time that she was just going there to relax and would be gone for a month at most?"
Princess Lejia nodded: "That's right, the New Year is coming soon. It's time to come back."
After Shen Huazheng reacted, she immediately looked at the maid who came to report.
"Go and invite Miss Fang in."
"Yes, County Lord."
The maid took the order and left.
Zhou Ying picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip of tea.
I don't know why, but I always feel like something is weird.
The second young lady of the Duke of Ming's Mansion always seemed to dislike handing in visiting cards when she went to other people's homes.
Besides, Fang Qingyu and Zheng'er don't seem to be that familiar with each other.
Before leaving the capital, she came to the Shen Mansion specifically to look for Zheng'er.
I just came back and came to look for Zheng'er again.
Could it be that like last time, she brought some news this time? ?
Princess Lejia's eyes were gleaming with gossip. The last time Fang Qingyu came to Zhengzheng's place, he revealed such a big piece of news to them.
This time, there won’t be any shocking news to be revealed.
However, it seems that no one in the capital has caused any trouble recently.
Could it be the melon from Jiangnan? ?
Well, it doesn't matter where it's from, as long as it's gossip.
It just so happens that Xue Meiniang is here with Zheng Zheng today. She loves to eat sweets while listening to gossip.
It would be best to have several at a time so that she can accumulate some materials.
