Chapter 409 Every time I come here, I learn more
Princess Lejia grasped the key point from Chen Huazheng's words: "Zhengzheng, did you make this specially for today?"
Shen Huazheng nodded: "Yes."
On such a beautiful lantern night, you should eat glass cookies.
Maybe after eating it, you will become more beautiful.
Princess Lejia was immediately moved that Zhengzheng actually made such exquisite snacks for her.
Everyone else's hearts were also softened. Zheng'er was now busy with the work of the Forestry Bureau and had to prepare to leave Beijing for the northwest.
Unexpectedly, she took time out of her busy schedule to make glass cookies for them as Lantern Festival gifts.
This silly kid doesn't even worry about tiring himself out.
Shen Huazheng was just about to let everyone taste the taste of the glass cookies, when she looked up, she saw everyone's moved expressions.
"How about you guys try it?"
"good."
"Since Zheng'er made it specially for us, we should taste it carefully."
Everyone wiped their hands with the wet towels brought by the maid, and then picked up a piece of glass cookie.
As soon as you get it in front of you, a rich milky aroma hits your nose, making you feel happy.
If I eat such beautiful cookies all at once, it would be a waste of Zheng'er's kindness.
You must first appreciate it like you would a lantern, and then slowly savor it.
The butter cookies are golden and round.
In the middle are hollow parts of various shapes, some are round and some are star-shaped.
No matter what shape it is, the hollow part in the middle is filled with exquisite "glass filling".
Everyone carefully looked at the glass cookies in front of them. The name was indeed correct.
The filling in the middle is indeed like colored glass, with both the beauty of pure colors and the charm of mixed colors.
The colors are as unpredictable as flowing clouds, between transparency and opacity, seemingly transparent but not transparent, hazy and mysterious.
It also has a fragile beauty.
It doesn't look like a snack at all, but rather like an exquisite decoration.
Everyone was very careful when handling the glass cookies, as they were always afraid that they would be broken by accident.
"Zheng'er, is this filling made of sugar?"
Zhou Ying felt that the glass core of the cookie was somewhat similar to the candied yam, but not particularly similar.
The color of this glass filling is richer and looks like colored glass.
Shen Huazheng: “Yes, it’s made of fruit lollipops.”
Zhou Ying: "Is this made by blending all the lollipops together?"
If the filling was made with just a certain flavor of lollipop, it wouldn't have this rich beauty.
Chen Huazheng: “Yes, I crushed lollipops of various flavors and stuffed them into the hollowed-out parts, and finally made them into glass cookies.”
She paused and added, "There are peach, grape, apple, melon and orange flavors."
Zhou Ying nodded: "I see."
In order to pair the exquisite glass cookies with it, Princess Lejia specially asked her maids to brew her treasured Phoenix Dancong tea.
That was a gift from Shen Huazheng to her before, and she usually wouldn't be willing to take it out to drink.
Everyone started to taste the glass cookies with their tea.
The cookies are so crispy that they melt in your mouth.
As you chew it, the rich buttery aroma instantly spreads in your mouth and gently leaps onto the tip of your tongue.
The crispy texture of the biscuits and the aroma of butter blend perfectly together, and the mellow taste leaves a sweet memory between the lips and teeth. It is delicious.
Bite deeper and you will find the "glass filling" in the middle.
Take a bite and your mouth will be filled with sweetness and crispness.
Since the filling is made of a variety of fruit lollipops, it is sour and sweet, and you can taste the complex fruit aroma when you eat it.
The mellow and delicate taste of butter cookies brings an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
Zhou Ying swallowed the glass cookie in her mouth: "It's delicious."
Shen Keting also praised: "The cookies are crispy and delicious, and the filling is rich in fruity flavor. It is indeed delicious."
The others were still eating their cookies and had no time to talk for the moment, so they just nodded in agreement.
It is really delicious. I didn’t expect that lollipops can be added to cookies.
Zheng'er/Zheng Zheng is really amazing.
Shen Huazheng smiled, picked up the teacup, and took a sip of tea.
The tea soup is smooth in the mouth and the sweetness lasts for a long time.
Chen Huazheng felt the gradually increasing fragrance and sweetness in her throat, and she smiled in a good mood.
Phoenix Dancong is a perfect match with all sweet foods.
Like Princess Yi'an and her companions, many people did not go to the Lantern Street, but went directly to the Food Street.
“I heard that this year’s glutinous rice balls are available without soup, and even the fillings are outside.”
"Yes, yes, I know. It's on the brochure, but it doesn't look like glutinous rice balls. It's called Tangbushuang."
"I saw it in the brochure, and I thought the name was weird."
"Not only that, the dumplings in this food street not only have soupless varieties, but they also have salty varieties. They seem to have meat fillings."
"No way, there are actually meat fillings? Can you really eat glutinous rice balls stuffed with meat?"
"When the fresh meat mooncakes came out during the Mid-Autumn Festival, I had the same thought. But I tried one and it was so delicious."
"That's right, let's just eat. The food in the food court has never been wrong."
"I think every time we come to the food court, we don't come to eat delicious food, but to broaden our horizons."
Xie Mi and General Xie's family also came to the food street. They thought that today was the Lantern Festival, and people who liked to come to the food street on weekdays would definitely go to the lantern street to enjoy the lanterns.
Who would have thought that the number of people here would increase instead of decrease today.
Through the bustling crowd, Xie Mi saw from afar the lanterns hanging not far away, dazzling like the sun rising at night.
It turned out to be the right decision to come directly to the food street today, since there are lanterns to see here too.
This way, time won’t be wasted.
