Chapter 372 This Year is a Fat Year
Thinking that the time was about right, Shen Huazheng had someone take the Portuguese egg tarts out of the oven, and a burst of sweet, hot steam immediately wafted towards her face.
The sweet scent slowly spread, filling the entire kitchen.
“It smells so good!!”
Zhou Ying smelled the sweet fragrance at the tip of her nose and looked at the freshly baked Portuguese tarts.
The Portuguese egg tarts are just like the egg tarts, each one lined up neatly on the plate.
The originally deflated bottom of the tart has been baked to become puffy, and the whole Portuguese tart looks a lot taller.
The tart liquid in the middle has now solidified into a brownish brown, with dark spots dotted around the surface.
Shen Huazheng was very satisfied: "It was done very successfully."
Zhou Ying's eyes were full of smiles: "When have you ever failed?"
When you put the egg tart and the Portuguese tart together, you can clearly see the difference between the two (a homemade picture is attached here).
Not to mention the different tart bases, even the color of the tart water is different.
The egg tart is bright yellow and has a relatively smooth surface.
The Portuguese tarts are brown in color with dark spots on them.
Even the scent is different.
The egg tarts have a strong eggy aroma, while the Portuguese tarts have a sweet, milky aroma.
Although egg tarts and Portuguese tarts are different in appearance and taste, they both look delicious at first glance.
Chen Huazheng asked people to load up the egg tarts and Portuguese tarts: "Let's go, we're going to have afternoon tea."
Zhou Ying: “Okay.”
She would have someone make a pot of good tea later, which would be perfect with the egg tarts and Portuguese tarts.
Seeing Shen Huazheng and others leave the kitchen, everyone in the kitchen was happy.
Although they were not included in the snacks made this time, everyone received an extra lucky money as a reward, and everyone was smiling from ear to ear.
This year is really a fat year.

Jiang Cheng looked at Shen Keting, who had a bad look on his face, as well as the Shen brothers and Zhou Zeyan who glanced at them from time to time, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Jinyu, please don't misunderstand me. In the past, you took into account the friendship between us and always took the initiative to share your food with me generously, so I thought of making some candied bananas during the New Year's Festival as a reward."
Facing Chen Huazheng's brothers, Jiang Cheng is outnumbered.
When speaking, he carefully chose his words, fearing that he would say something wrong and be attacked by everyone.
If it was New Year's Day, it would be bad if you got beaten black and blue.
Not only will I be laughed at by others, but I might also be scolded by my grandfather when I get home.
Chen Keting: ???
Was that because he cared about friendship and shared generously?
It's obvious that some people are thicker-skinned than city walls and keep eating from him.
Jiang Cheng observed Shen Keting's expression: "Jinyu, how about you try one?"
In fact, he wanted to give this food box to Princess Yinghua.
Although Princess Yinghua is now an official of the imperial court like men, she is still a girl after all.
If other people knew about this, it would damage her reputation.
After much thought, I decided it would be safer to ask Jin Yu to pass it on.
Of course, his real idea was to let Jin Yu and the Shen brothers have a taste.
After all, they are all brothers of Lady Yinghua County, if they approve of her.
The road ahead...may be smoother.
Jiang Cheng imagined the future with joy, his heart beating fast.
Shen Keting stared at Jiang Cheng for a while, as if trying to determine whether he was lying.
After a moment, he nodded slightly: "Okay, then I'll try it."
Just don't covet his sister.
Otherwise...
Heh~
Shen Keting picked up a piece of banana chips and took a bite.
"It tastes good, did you really make this yourself?"
Jiang Cheng nodded: "I think that candied haws are made from hawthorn, and other fruits should be able to be made into similar food."
Chen Keting: "Why didn't I know you could make snacks before?"
Jiang Cheng smiled, looking mysterious: "There are still many things you don't know."
In his spare time, in addition to writing, he also studies some cooking methods.
Just to have some common language with County Lady Yinghua.
Although there are not many opportunities for the two to meet, let alone have an in-depth conversation.
But what if there really is a chance in the future?
Always be prepared first.
Shen Keting didn't pay attention to Jiang Cheng's words, but picked up another piece of banana chips and started eating.
If this was really made by Wenyuan himself, then he is quite talented.
However, this bit of talent is nothing in front of Zheng'er.
Compared with the snacks made by Zheng'er, the taste of this candied banana is just so-so at best.
There’s no need to send this kind of food in front of Zheng’er to upset her. It’s better for him to just finish eating it.
Jiang Cheng sat aside, watching Shen Keting eat piece after piece of banana chips, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Just when he finally couldn't help it and wanted to persuade Shen Keting to eat less, a voice came from the door -
"Afternoon tea is here!"
