Chapter 798 New Dessert
Chapter 798 New Dessert
As soon as the crabs come out, big farmers in the nearby counties will basically buy them.
If the nearby counties buy it, more than 20 counties under Yunzhou will come here to buy it.
Even in Yunzhou, Baoyue Tower crabs are not sold to the public. If you don't have the means to buy from Baoyue Tower, you can only condescend to buy from them.
Last year, most of the crabs came from Yunzhou’s big farmers, and this year there are more than 30,000 crabs in the small pond.
There are so many that the wealthy families in Yunzhou alone cannot take them all, so she has to sell them outside.
Although several prefectures could not be sold, the lords of the prefectures still took good care of her. There were not many good things at home, and the crabs were fat, so it was reasonable and moral to offer some as a gift.
Before the crabs could be sold, she stayed at home to look after them, taking out her account book all day long, calculating how much to give to this one and how much to give to that one.
In the end she sighed, in fact, what she deserved most was the big banner behind her. She took advantage of the power of others and the wolves and tigers passing by gave way to her and gave her face. This big banner behind her played such a great role in her current achievements!
Unfortunately, she couldn't even enter the checkpoint, let alone deliver things to others.
At this time, there was basically nothing to do, and she could finally stay at home peacefully, eating and drinking, reading books, practicing calligraphy, catching fish, grilling meat, and strolling in the vegetable garden.
But after a while, I felt bored and spent the whole day looking here, touching there, and cooking and making snacks.
Although she didn't have all the ingredients, she still managed to make a decent cake. She picked a few of the last small and ugly berries in the vegetable garden and used them to decorate the cake.
The wild fruit vine that was planted at the beginning produced a lot of fruits this year, and there were still some left. She picked some and scattered the purple-red fruit grains on it.
I also had some apples and pears at home, which I cut into small pieces and put on top.
With this decoration, the cake looks very nice.
Zhou Su and the others happened to have a day off today, and after the family had breakfast they were ordered not to go into the kitchen, so they heard her busying around in the kitchen alone.
Zhou Guo hadn't cooked for a long time, and everyone remembered the things she had cooked, all of which were delicious. Now the big snails in the river are almost gone.
I don’t know what will be produced.
Zhou Guo brought out the big round cake.
"Wow!!!"
"So lovely!!"
"What is this?"
When the people in the yard saw the cake in her hand, they could no longer sit still and gathered around her. This thing was so novel!
She placed the cake on the table, looked at it from side to side for a while, and nodded again with satisfaction, "I haven't tasted it yet, so I don't know how it tastes."
Just think of it as opening a blind box.
Zhou Gu looked up and down and said, "It's such a big piece. How can we eat it? Should we each hold it and take a bite?"
Everyone looked at Zhou Guo.
Zhou Guo turned around and took out a kitchen knife and a plate from the kitchen. "Of course we have to share it. I'll share it with you."
First cut it vertically in the middle, then cut it horizontally.
The good pastries were messed up like this. Xiaohua was very anxious. She couldn't even speak and could only jump in anxiety.
The family laughed.
Zhou Guo gave each person a piece and a spoon, "Eat it with a spoon."
After the old man took the first bite, his brows tightened and loosened.
Seeing him like this, Zhou Guo took a bite, and then finished his meal, but failed.
Although the taste may not be that good, the whole family loves it.
After all, this dessert is made at home, it is not sold outside, and even the old man has never seen it.
He held the soft, white mud-like thing in his hand, and examined it for a while before saying, "I've been to so many places, but I've never seen this before. How is it made?"
Zhou Guo frowned while eating. There was not enough sugar in the cake, so it was not sweet. How could a non-sweet cake be called a dessert? It just tasted okay and was soft.
After hearing the old man's question, he said, "Many cows on the farm gave birth to calves. There was so much milk that a calf couldn't drink it all. The cows were also very bloated, so I had someone squeeze out a lot of it and brought it back. This white stuff is made from milk and eggs."
When Li heard this, the tips of her ears turned red. But she couldn't say anything to her in front of so many people. She really dared to say anything.
She talks a lot. Every time I ask her how she makes something, she seems to want to explain the whole history of this thing.
The old man didn't know that cow's milk and eggs could make this thing, so he said with interest: "Let me see it when you make it tomorrow. I want to see how it is made like this."
Wu Ya said: "I want to see it too. It's so delicious. I'll make it next time."
Although it was not sweet, she thought it was delicious, fragrant and soft.
Zhou Suli and Li Lai also liked it. They sat together and ate three pieces in one go.
Xiaohua dropped a few golden beans. After her mother fed her a mouthful, her eyes lit up and she no longer remembered what flowers were or were not. She ate mouthful after mouthful even more happily than Zhou Suli and Li Lai.
Zhou Guo finished her piece before saying, "This thing is not cooked well. There is not enough sugar. Let's make it again tomorrow and put more sugar. It will taste better."
If you put less sugar, it will taste bland.
Li likes it very much. "I think it's good this way. It's not good if it's too sweet. It's choking."
Anyway, the family finished the eight-inch cake.
Zhou Su and the others were still a little unsatisfied and asked Zhou Guo: "Sister, when can we do it again next time?"
Zhou Guo smiled and said, "Everything is ready. If you want to eat in the afternoon, just make it again."
The old man immediately said, "I'll help you."
Wu Ya also raised her hand, and Zhou Su and others were not to be outdone.
Seeing that they all wanted to help, Zhou Guo waved her hand and said, "Do it all. If you can't finish it, share it with everyone or give it away."
Some are eaten by people.
After a while, two tables were set up in the yard, and all the necessary things were placed on them.
Except for Xiaohua and Li, everyone in the family was holding something in their hands and staring at Zhou Guo intently.
Zhou Guo taught as he did it, and the whole family followed along with laughter.
After the cake base is baked, it is time to add the buttercream. This step is what Li does best. She is good at making steamed buns, and the buttercream is spread evenly and looks good.
There were a total of nine finished cakes placed on the table, some big, some small, some beautiful, and some ugly.
Zhou Mai and the others made the ugliest dish, with the cream mixed in layers of thin and thick.
The old man pointed at them and said, "Are you guys going to eat this by yourselves?"
Zhou Su said, "Sir, don't think ours is ugly. It might taste good. What can you tell from the appearance?"
The old man snorted and said, "How can you not tell from the outside? When compared with this thing, you guys have no desire to make others eat it. If others don't even want to eat it, how can they know whether you are delicious inside."
Zhou Su said: "This is definitely delicious."
What a coincidence, everyone only likes to eat their own.
Zhou Guo said: "Then eat your own food."
She gave herself a piece of her own, took a bite, and her eyes narrowed. This taste was right, not much different from the small cakes she had eaten in previous years! !
