Chapter 423: New Tricks
Today, Shen Zhaonian and Shen Keting both got off work early, so the Shen family's dinner time was also advanced.
It happens that tomorrow is a day off, so I have plenty of time.
If everyone finishes their meal early, they can drink some tea together and have some snacks.
Seeing that everyone was present, Zhou asked the maids to serve the dishes.
Chen Keheng noticed the big pot carried in by the maids with sharp eyes: "Are we having hot pot today?"
Shen Kesi also saw it, and it seemed to be a hanyang hotpot.
Zhou nodded and smiled, "Yes, but it's a little different from the hot pot we usually eat."
Shen Kesi & Shen Keheng: (■_■)
That pot looks no different from usual ones.
Is it that the base of the pot or the ingredients are different from usual? ?
Or maybe both.
Shen Zhaonian & Shen Keting: (〃￣︶￣) people (￣︶￣〃)
It seems that Zheng'er has prepared some new dishes.
Before leaving the capital, Shen Huazheng carefully specified the next menu for the kitchen.
Zhou had read the menu carefully, and would prepare a combination of dishes according to the menu every day and then instruct the cooks to cook them.
Therefore, in the eyes of the Shen family, although Shen Huazheng's people had left the capital, the daily meals of the Shen family were still arranged by her.
As the maids approached, an alluring fragrance filled everyone's nose.
In addition to the spicy aroma of oil, the air is also filled with the subtle and elegant fragrance of tea.
If you smell it carefully, you can even smell a faint scent of osmanthus.
The Shen family father and son were both stunned. Why is there a scent of tea and osmanthus in the hot pot base? ?
It was not until the steaming pot was served on the table that they realized the difference between this pot and the previous double-flavored hot pots.
This pot is also separated. On one side is the spicy hot pot with boiling red oil, and on the other side is the yellow-green tea soup with tea leaves floating on it.
In the past, the double-flavored pots were one red and one white, but now they are one red and one green.
Shen Zhaonian took a deep sniff of the fragrance lingering at the tip of his nose: "Is this the base of the pot made of Longjing tea?"
Zhou smiled and said, "Yes, this is tea soup base. Zheng'er said that Longjing tea can be used, and other teas can also be used. Today we will try this Longjing tea hot pot. Some osmanthus is added to the tea soup base, which will taste more fragrant."
She paused and added, "Some tea leaves are added to the hot pot, so it tastes a little different from the usual hot pot, and it can also relieve greasiness and reduce internal heat."
As she spoke, Zhou's eyes were filled with a gentle smile.
Zheng'er must have known that she liked osmanthus, so she added some to the bottom of the pot.
Shen Zhaonian smelled the faint fragrance of tea: ε(┬┬﹏┬┬)3
He just knew it!!
Because he likes drinking tea, Zheng'er always adds tea to some drinks and snacks.
Now even the base for tea soup has been thought out.
As expected, daughters are filial! !
The three brothers of Shen Keting: (T_T)
At that time, Zheng'er was temporarily asked to go on a business trip to the northwest.
But she was able to arrange everything in such a short time, even planning their meals clearly.
They even thought about the problem of getting a sore throat after eating too much spicy hot pot, and made some adjustments to the bottom of the pot.
I am so touched, woooooooo~~~
Just when everyone was immersed in their own world, the maids brought the hot pot ingredients to the table.
As usual, there are both meat and vegetarian dishes.
Vegetables, various meats, meatballs, soy products, mushrooms, seafood and river fish, everything is available.
But one of the foods attracted everyone's attention. Shen Zhaonian couldn't help but ask, "Madam, is that a meat pie?"
