Adorable Food Goddess Chapter 103: I want it all
Early in the morning, Ye Jiayao went to Tianshangju and found that shopkeeper Li had arrived earlier than her. She stood in a daze in the lobby and said hello to him without responding.
Xiao Lu quietly told her that when he got up in the morning to open the door, the shopkeeper stood in a daze at the entrance of the restaurant, and then stood in a daze in the yard.
Ye Jiayao wondered, this is the precursor of Alzheimer's? Can't, it's only over fifty! The modern times are flourishing.
Regardless of him, Ye Jiayao went to Zhong Xiang, and today he will try to make ice cream mooncakes.
The materials used are glutinous rice flour, sticky rice flour, orange powder, powdered sugar, milk, purple amaranth juice, etc. If you want more quality, you can also add a little agar.
First put the glutinous rice flour into a pot and fry, mix the milk and sugar oil, then add the fried flour and stir to make a paste, steam it on a steamer, let it cool, and then wrap the ice cream filling.
The previous procedure is okay. The final closing step is very skillful. The mouth should be round and the thickness should be even. Otherwise, the thickness of the mold will vary, and the ice skin is easy to break and not beautiful.
Fortunately, Zhong Xiang’s craftsmanship passed, one by one was collected and properly posted. If you don’t look carefully, you can’t see which is the closing. The Q-bomb dough is wrapped in the ice cream made last night. Ye Jiayao takes the mold and gently clicks After pressing, the small and exquisite snowy ice cream mooncake is completed.
"It's so exquisite, I can't bear to eat the good-looking ones." Deng Haichuan slapped his tongue. The lavender ice skin was bright and had a crystal-like feeling. In addition, the patterns on the mold were three-dimensional and beautiful, small and exquisite. Pleasant, it can arouse people's appetite.
Ye Jiayao smiled and said: "This is just an experiment today, there will be better-looking ones then."
"Exquisiteness is exquisiteness, but is it too small?" Zhong Xiang was a little worried. Most of the mooncakes are big, with enough fillings, one can fill it up.
Ye Jiayao said: "This kind of effect is what I want. Mooncakes are food that meets the occasion, but how many people really feel that mooncakes are delicious? This mooncake we made is not only good-looking, but also delicious. It's a small one, and it's not enough. In this way, people feel that they are precious. If you are the boss, you will get tired of the taste. No matter what the food, the appearance is the first. People think that it is delicious when they look and taste good. "
Zhong Xiang nodded and smiled: "This is the reason."
"Can I taste one?" Cui Dongpeng was drooling and couldn't wait to taste one.
"Not yet, you have to ice it before eating it. It tastes better." Ye Jiayao put the moon cake away and put it in the ice book to freeze.
This time I only made six. In the afternoon, Ye Jiayao took it out and cut it into small pieces with a knife for everyone to taste.
Eyes straightened one by one.
"Brother Yao, it's really not built. I can't describe it. It's so delicious." Deng Haichuan was amazed.
Cui Dongpeng also gave thumbs up again and again.
Wang Mingde said: "Delicious is delicious, but this is far from ordinary moon cakes. It can be said to be another kind of cakes. Can people accept it?"
"Although it is different from traditional mooncakes, the dough is soft and pliable, and the ice cream is cool and refreshing. The ice cream inside is even more delicate. It melts in your mouth and is so delicious. I think everyone can accept it." Although Zhong Xiang said that, but There was a hint of unconfidence in his tone.
Ye Jiayao smiled and said: "So, this birthday banquet is a good opportunity. The Palace of Helian said that this is moon cake, it must be moon cake, and it will definitely attract popularity, so now I am going to The palace, persuade the princess."
Ye Jiayao put the remaining five mooncakes back into the ice mirror, and brought the ice mirror to the palace of Helian.
I chose this time. The afternoon is sultry and hot. Eating an ice cream mooncake is the most refreshing and refreshing.
However, Ye Jiayao did not expect that she had chosen a really good time at this time. The eldest princess was receiving several ladies who had come to give gifts. Hearing that the moon cakes had arrived, Ye Jiayao brought them to see her.
The princess felt weird seeing the copper box in her hand: "What kind of box are you?"
Ye Jiayao said: "This is a portable ice book that I came up with to pack ice cream mooncakes."
"Which mooncakes are you iced?" A lady asked curiously.
Ye Jiayao said: "It's ice cream mooncakes, a kind of delicacy spread from overseas."
Someone giggled and said, "Do those barbarians who eat the past have the custom of Mid-Autumn Festival?"
Ye Jiayao said in his heart that he is really arrogant and obstructed. Although the Chinese civilization has a long history, Western civilization cannot be underestimated. In another time and space, when the first industrial revolution occurred in the West, it was in the Manchuria in the East. It is still a self-sufficient natural economy, and the consequence of standing still is that the dynasty is destroyed and dignity is trampled.
Of course, these are all things to follow.
"Madam, we can’t underestimate the barbarians. The world is huge and there are many barbarians. Some of them are much more advanced than us. For example, when the ladies are still using incense, they There are already refined and concentrated perfumes, and when you spray them on your body, the scent will not disappear for a long time. Also, we are still using paper and gauze to cover the windows. They have used bright glass, the wind cannot blow in, and the rain beats. No entry..." Ye Jiayao said.
"What's the magic? Have you seen it?" The ladies were suspicious.
Ye Jiayao smiles: Of course I have seen them. These are all trivial things. If you know that people in later generations can go to the moon in a spacecraft, they can travel in space in a spacecraft. You know, there is no nine palaces in the sky, and Chang'e and Wu Gang also It's just a myth. There is nothing on the moon except potholes. I don't know if the eyeballs will fall off.
Yide heard what Xiaojing said, saying that Li Yao went to many places and was very knowledgeable. What he wanted to say was not fabricated out of thin air. By the way: "Present your ice cream mooncakes for everyone to taste."
"Yes." Ye Jiayao happily opened the ice mirror, took out a plate of snowy ice cream mooncakes, and showed them to the princess and the wife first, so that they could see what it looks like.
Sure enough, everyone's eyes were attracted.
The thinking of the ladies is different from that of ordinary people. What they care about is not the size, but whether they are good-looking, refined and worthy of their identity.
There is no doubt that this appearance is very easy.
Ye Jiayao saw an expression of interest in their eyes. Then take out a knife, cut out a corner of each moon cake, and put it on a plate.
Because it had just been taken out of the ice mirror, the temperature outside was relatively high, and white steam was still on the mooncakes.
The ladies use a small spoon very elegantly, dig a piece to taste.
Ye Jiayao introduced the benefits of this snowy ice cream mooncake.
"Traditional moon cakes are sweet and greasy. Our Soviet-style moon cakes are sweet but not greasy, but they are crispy on the surface. They are often full of crumbs and fall off clothes. They are not very beautiful. Snowy ice cream mooncakes, low in sugar powder, low fat, do not gain weight after eating, are good for health, and are cool and refreshing, they are almost suitable for use after meals. If you have ice cream at home, you can keep it for many days. It will not crack or rot. The only shortcoming is that this kind of mooncake is extremely expensive, and the price is not cheap, and most people cannot afford it."
"The only thing is that things are really good, and the price is not a problem." said a lady.
It's boring to let them eat what everyone eats. What they need is that ordinary people can't afford it to show their identity and status.
"Does this food really won't make you fat?" A lady has almost finished eating the mooncakes.
Ye Jiayao smiled and said: "It's definitely healthy food."
"Yes, it's the first time I have eaten such a fresh thing. The appearance is exquisite and beautiful, and the taste is icy and delicate. Little cook, where can I sell this mooncake? I'll let someone buy it later." Another lady Asked.
Ye Jiayao said with a smile: "The little one is Li Mingyao, the chef of Tianshangju. This kind of moon cake is a kind of food that the little one learns from overseas. It is specially developed for the birthday banquet of the old princess. The first batch of finished products, if the birthday banquet is not used, will be sold tomorrow."
The princess Yide hurriedly said: "The birthday banquet is naturally to be used. Later, you will go to the housekeeper and ask how many guests there are in total, so that all guests who come can taste it."
If everyone has eaten it, it won't be rare.
The other ladies couldn't help showing regrets. They wanted to buy some to try them out. Now they will not be sold until the birthday banquet of the old princess is over.
Ye Jiayao secretly overjoyed, and said: "Yes, the small one guarantees that every guest can taste it."
A lady asked curiously: "I don't know how much this mooncake will cost?"
Ye Jiayao look at the princess Yide~IndoMTL.com~Princess Yide lightly wrote: "It's not very expensive, about a few hundred visitors, only a few thousand taels of silver."
Uh... the ladies all gasped. The moon cakes alone cost several thousand taels of silver, so it's not expensive? They are not ordinary people, but a dessert costs thousands of taels of silver, which is really reluctant to start. It is the palace of Helian after all, with rich wealth!
Everyone knows that after the old princess’s birthday banquet, this mooncake will be popular among the Jinling aristocracy, and the price will naturally rise. However, they are the first to have tasted this kind of mooncake. Yes, I can brag about it when I go out.
Ye Jiayao's goal is achieved, and she resigns.
I went to the housekeeper and asked the specific number of people. A total of 126 invitations were sent, and then I brought the family members. It is estimated that there will be more than 300 people who will come by then, because many people will bring My wife or children came to show up, and finally decided to send 400 moon cakes. The original price was five taels of silver. Ye Jiayao gave them a 20% discount, and received four or two, totaling 1,600 yuan.
Ye Jiayao first paid five hundred taels as the deposit and material expenses, and settled the balance after the rest of the banquet.
On the way back, Ye Jiayao made a good calculation. The salary for the banquet was three hundred taels of silver. This is the same price as hiring Chef Zheng Fugui, which is quite high. Excluding the commission given to the lower helpers and the restaurant, she left one hundred and sixty taels. These are all small heads, and the big heads are in ice cream mooncakes. After this banquet is done, she can at least earn thousands of taels. It can be regarded as getting rich overnight. The more Ye Jiayao thought about it, the more beautiful she became, and if she continued like this, she was not far from her goal of opening a restaurant.
