Travel back to ancient times and open a Sichuan restaurant

Chapter 279

She didn't even have dinner that night. She went straight back to her room and prepared to go into the space to make a birthday cake.

Shitou and Xiaohe have two days off tomorrow, and they invited a few good classmates to come over to their home.

Zhong Ruyi carefully asked the two how many people came, and learned that there were five. Together with the people invited by Cuicui and Tiedan, there were a total of about ten people.

There must be a cake for a birthday. She may not be able to make a good cake for more than a dozen people in one morning, so she planned to make it in the evening so that she can take it out and eat it tomorrow.

In addition to cakes, she also plans to make fried chicken, French fries, potato chips, and some small cookies.

There are plenty of fruits in the space. Children should like to eat watermelons, grapes, strawberries, cherries, etc., so prepare more.

For the cake, she planned to make a large twelve-inch fruit cake and a four-inch chocolate cake.

I entered the space and picked some grapes, mangoes, blueberries and strawberries that I would use.

After washing, cut into pieces and set aside.

After washing the eggs, crack them, separate the egg whites from the yolks, beat the egg whites until foamy, then mix the egg yolks with flour and sugar evenly, then stir the two together and put them in the oven to bake.

Find a large container, pour in whipped cream and an appropriate amount of sugar and beat until it becomes thick. Then you can taste whether the sugar content is enough. If it is not sweet enough, you can add some more sugar.

Take out the baked cake base and cut it into three layers horizontally, and spread a layer of cream on each layer of cake.

The cut fruits were placed evenly on the cream. Zhong Ruyi thought about it and decided not to put strawberries in at first because she felt that strawberries mixed with other fruits seemed a bit sour.

But I also feel that the cake does need some sourness, otherwise the whole sweet cake will easily make you feel sick.

So when she was putting the fruits on the cake at the end, she still put them down, and then spread a layer of cream on the fruits, covering the top and sides of the cake.

Her technique is not very good, and the application is not very smooth, just barely flat. But this is for my own consumption at home, so if it's not smooth, then it's not smooth.

After making the fruit cake, she tried making a chocolate cake. She sprinkled some chocolate chips on the surface, which looked pretty good.

After finishing the two cakes, she looked up at the clock hanging in the living room of the cabin. It was almost eleven o'clock. She had been working for several hours.

She shook her hands and prepared to rest.

She hadn't eaten dinner in the evening and was feeling a little hungry. When she went out of the cabin, she smelled some fragrance.

Zhong Ruyi stood under the durian tree, looking up at the delicious thorny fruits hanging on the tree.

She had only eaten it once in her previous life, and it was from her roommate. Knowing that durian was not cheap, she only dared to take a small piece.

It's simply amazing, fragrant, glutinous and sweet, and it's still a bit crispy when eaten!

No!

I don’t have much time to come in on weekdays, and I can’t eat even if I want to. But I happen to be free tonight, so why not just cook a meal!

She turned around, found a knife, climbed up, and pinched the durian thorns. If it could be pinched, it should be edible. With a flick of the knife, a durian weighing five or six pounds fell to the ground.

I carried the durian into the kitchen, opened it, and found a five-lobed flesh.

Zhong Ruyi wanted to give herself a thumbs up for her excellent technique in picking durian!

Anyway, the cake was already made and in the refrigerator, so she simply took the durian out of the space and ate it directly while sitting on the bed.

When there were only two pieces of food left, someone knocked on the door suddenly, which scared Zhong Ruyi.

It's already this late, who's still awake and knocking on her door?

She put the plate on the table, got up and opened the door.

Zhang Mingzhu was standing at the door with sleepy eyes. After the door opened, she took a few steps back, rubbed her fingers under her nose unconsciously, and asked cautiously, "Did you...pull the bed?"

Zhong Ruyi slowly typed a question mark.

What do you mean she pooped on the bed?

She looked back at the bed. Could it be that someone came into her room and did something when she was not in the room and making cakes in the space?

But she soon thought of the durian she had just placed on the table.

I think what Zhang Mingzhu smelled was the scent of durian. Some people who don’t like it would think it stinks.

People who like it don't think it's stinky, but fragrant.

She waved her hand and said, "It's okay, I just farted, go back to sleep, I want to sleep too."

Zhang Mingzhu didn't think much about it and just said, "Okay, if you have a stomachache, go to the toilet in time and don't hold it in." She didn't say the last sentence, "Don't poop in bed."

When Liu Yu Niang got up in the morning, she was holding a wooden basin with several baby diapers in it. She muttered, "I felt that Lan Lan had pooped until midnight last night, but when I got up and lit the oil lamp, I saw nothing. It was just that the diaper was wet. After changing the diaper, I still smelled a little bit. Xiao He is too old to poop on the bed by himself. I wonder if Tie Dan pooped all over the bed?"

Zhong Ruyi didn't expect that her family members' noses were so sensitive when they were asleep. She laughed and said, "I saw my cousin get up to go to the toilet last night. Maybe she had a stomachache."

As she spoke, Zhang Mingzhu came out yawning. When she heard someone mention her, she turned her head curiously and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay! Let's eat." Zhong Ruyi waved her hand, "Remember to help me later."

When she heard that she was needed for help, Zhang Mingzhu's eyes lit up and she picked up the steamed bun on the table and started eating it.

There were three chickens in the kitchen that had been cleaned by Mr. Zhong, and next to them were some seasonings taken from the space kitchen.

Zhong Ruyi found a few sharp wooden sticks and started poking the chicken. When she felt it was almost done, she put it in the wooden basin.

Add minced garlic, chopped shallots, salt, five-spice powder, pepper, light soy sauce and oyster sauce, mix well with your hands and set aside to marinate.

Because I need to fry three chickens, I need to use a lot of flour and the containers used are all large basins.

Zhang Mingzhu washed her hands and came over to help. Zhong Ruyi instructed her to cut the potatoes into thin slices or into strips.

She herself scooped a bowl of flour, added some starch, salt and pepper, mixed it well and set it aside.

Then beat ten eggs in an empty bowl and add flour, starch and the milk to be used.

She turned sideways to block Zhang Mingzhu's sight, and suddenly a box of milk appeared in her hand. She quickly poked the straw and poured it into the flour, stirring it evenly until it became a golden batter.

One bowl of batter and one bowl of mixed flour.

But the chicken didn’t need to be marinated for long, so she planned to wait before cooking.

Zhang Mingzhu cut potatoes carefully for a while, and soon the wooden basin was full.

Zhong Ruyi took the potatoes she had cut, poured some clean water and dropped a few drops of white vinegar into them. She scooped them up with her hands, stirred them, and washed off the starch on the surface of the potatoes.

While the potatoes were still not cut, she went to the back of the house and picked six or seven tomatoes to make some tomato sauce.

Boil hot water in a pot. When the water boils, throw the tomatoes in to scald the skin. Then take them out and tear off the tomato skin.

Zhang Mingzhu had just finished cutting the potatoes when she was asked to peel them.

Zhong Ruyi cut the tomatoes in half, removed the hard core and then cut them into thick slices.

It was not convenient to go into the space and use a blender to blend the tomatoes into juice, so she found two sticks, put the cut tomatoes into a wooden basin and mashed them little by little, and this could barely be considered tomato juice.

After it is done, pour it into the pot, add a spoonful of sugar and a little salt.

Put a few pieces of firewood into the stove to make the fire bigger. Stir the tomato juice in the pot constantly with a spatula to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.

Cook until the water dries up and becomes a thick tomato sauce.

"Cousin, can you try it and see if it's sour?" Zhong Ruyi tasted some herself and felt it was not bad.

Zhang Mingzhu dipped some with her chopsticks and tasted it, wrinkling her nose and said, "Why do you have to boil tomatoes into sauce? I think tomatoes are delicious. It would be troublesome to boil them into sauce."

"Why bother with the hemp? You can eat it later and it will be over."
