Chapter 20 Eating is very important



She was unwilling to accept that she had served the Fourth Prince since he was still a virgin, yet she still didn't have a child.

After thinking for a moment, Song Rusi instructed Lu Yin:

"Help me redo my makeup, then we'll go pay our respects to the Princess Consort."

Not long after, Song Rusi arrived at Ulanara's courtyard.

Meanwhile, Ulanara was enjoying the pastries that Geng Youran had sent over.

She was just saying it casually.

A few days ago, the Fourth Prince visited his eldest son, Honghui, in his wife's courtyard and mentioned that Geng Youran had made a Manchu dish called "Yang Xizhanzi".

So when Geng Youran paid his respects, the Fujin specifically asked about it, and unexpectedly Geng Youran remembered it.

Remembering that there was still fresh milk delivered from the small kitchen, Geng Youran specially made 'Seven Stars Noriko' and 'Sunni Efen White Cake' and sent them to the Fujin.

Since entering the palace, Geng Youran has been studying Manchu cuisine.

After all, the Manchus came from the Central Plains, so knowing some Manchu food is not a bad thing.

The Fourth Prince also raises dairy cows on his estate, so the manor receives fresh milk from time to time.

'Seven Stars Noriko' and 'Sunni Efen White Cake' are both classic Manchu foods.

First of all, 'Nanase Noriko' looks a bit like modern fried milk.

Geng Youran first mixed the prepared refined flour, milk, granulated sugar, baking powder, lard, etc. in proportion, and then placed the kneaded dough in a warm place to ferment until the dough expanded to a certain extent.

After the dough has fermented, cut it into small pieces, press the dough into round discs with your hands, and then gently press out seven small dots with a tool to form a "seven-star" pattern.

Because the small kitchen lacked baking equipment, Geng Youran could only fry the round, flatbread-shaped dough in a pan.

After frying, remove the pastries and place them in a ventilated area to cool naturally.

This pastry has been a favorite for many people because it can be stored for more than ten days, and it is considered one of the staple foods on the grasslands.

Because 'Seven Star Noriko' requires a certain cooldown period, Geng Youran will continue making 'Sunni Efen White Cake' next.

The ingredients for 'Sunni Efen White Cake' are very simple, including flour, milk, and sugar.

This pastry requires heavy cream, so Geng Youran even "bribed" Xinyi to make it, and it took a lot of effort.

Xinyi almost ruined her arm while making this dish.

To make it, you need to sift the flour, then add softened butter and sugar, and mix well by hand.

Next, add liquid ingredients such as milk and heavy cream, and knead into a smooth dough.

Cover the kneaded dough with plastic wrap or a damp cloth and let it rest in a warm place for a while. The purpose of resting is to allow the dough to relax fully and undergo a certain fermentation process, which will make the pastry softer.

Roll the risen dough into a long strip, then divide it into small, evenly sized portions. Each portion can be shaped into a round or other shapes.

Place the shaped pastries into a preheated oven and bake until the surface is golden brown and the inside is fully cooked.
