Simply put, this taro paste pastry has layers of crispy crust on the outside and sweet taro paste in the middle.
It tastes fragrant and sweet, with a rich taste.
Qin Mei is indeed a good pastry maker. She made this taro paste pastry just by listening to Su Liuer's words. Su Liuer praised:
"Mrs. Feng is really clever and skillful. I found the right person to work with you to make this pastry. Look at what I made myself, it's so ugly." Su Liuer looked at the taro paste pastry she made with disdain.
It doesn't look like it's delicious. It's in a weird shape, and some of the taro paste inside is exposed.
This kind of craft really requires a lot of practice, and she can only make simple things like grass jelly honey and taro balls.
As for the snacks, she decided to let Qin Mei do it from now on.
Qin Mei looked at the taro paste pastry and asked curiously, "Madam Su, what will this taro paste pastry look like when baked? It doesn't look much different from other pastries, but this method is indeed the first time I've seen it. It has both a crispy and oily crust, which is really new."
Su Liuer calculated that the time was almost up, so she said, "We'll know what it looks like after we bake it. Let's go. I hope the bread oven can be done."
Because it was a secret recipe, the two of them didn't bring anyone with them when they went to the kitchen just now, not even Jing Qingrong.
Su Liuer and Qin Mei came to the yard where the bread kiln was located and smelled the fragrance from afar, and a little burnt smell.
Obviously Su Liuer miscalculated the time. She opened the bread oven and used a wooden tray with a rod to carry the things out. Fortunately, the meat pieces were greased with oil and did not stick to it, but they were indeed burnt. The sweet potatoes were fine, and the burnt skin did not affect the inside.
"Mrs. Feng, I'll have to trouble you to try more to control the temperature. I'm just a novice and don't understand much." Su Liuer said to Qin Mei apologetically.
Qin Mei was looking at the roasted meat and sweet potatoes with curiosity and excitement. After hearing what Su Liuer said, she shook her head and said:
"No trouble, no trouble. This bread oven is really a magical thing. It can bake things without fire! It's amazing! Can we put our taro pastries in it and bake them?" Qin Mei picked up the plate of taro pastries excitedly, her eyes shining with anticipation.
She couldn't wait to see and taste what the baked taro pastry would look like and taste like!
Su Liuer laughed and nodded, "Then give it a try. Just do it like I just did."
As for the temperature and how long to bake it, she didn't know because she hadn't tried it.
Just try it anyway.
Qin Mei went to light the firewood, looking excited like a child who loved playing with fire when she was little.
Su Liuer is no longer needed here. She has already drawn the shop's decoration drawings, so she asked Qin Mei to invite a carpenter to finalize the decoration.
The most famous carpenter in Shanghe County is Carpenter Wu, who has excellent craftsmanship and is also expensive.
The money for the decoration was paid by Feng Zhengqing and his wife, and Su Liuer didn't need to worry about the price, as long as Carpenter Wu could make what she wanted.
Su Liuer naturally brought Jing Qingrong along this time. He wanted to learn, so he just followed and listened. With a professional carpenter present, many issues could be discussed in more detail.
Otherwise, if Su Liuer only looked at the drawings to teach her, she wouldn't know where to start.
Carpenter Wu was an old man about the same age as Old Jiang. He didn't look like a carpenter, but more like an old Taoist priest with an immortal look. He didn't talk much. After looking at the blueprints, he took the blueprints and left without asking any questions.
"Leaving now?" Jing Qingrong was a little confused as he wanted to study hard but learned nothing.
