C30 Pick up Ingredients and Make Pastries

Mama Qin was in the kitchen staring at the ingredients everyone was preparing for the afternoon when she suddenly heard Xiao maidservant reporting to Miss. She hurriedly told everyone to not stop their work and wiped her hands as she went out to receive them.

As soon as Qianqian entered the big kitchen courtyard, she saw Mama Qin coming to welcome her with a face full of smiles. Mama Qin greeted her with a bow, then hurriedly asked, "Aiya, Miss, the kitchen is filled with oil and smoke, why did you come here? But lunch is not suitable, if that's the case, you can send Yun Zhu or Yun Lan over.

Hearing that, Qianqian knew she was concerned about him, so she didn't get angry. She answered every question Mama Qin asked with a smile, "Mama Qin, lunch is delicious. I came here to see what kind of fresh goods the manor was sending over. I'm going out to play tomorrow and make some pastries. "

The village in the west of the city has sent over a basket full of fresh prawns and live fish. The village in the south of the city has just picked some vegetables and water chestnuts, and sent a few baskets up. This was not the first time Qianqian had cooked her own pastries, so Mama Qin was not surprised. She led Qianqian to the pantry where the ingredients were kept, continuing, "Oh, right. The village in the south of the city also sent some lotus roots and horses' hooves.

Qianqian nodded, walked around the warehouse and said, "Well, I'll take a look first." After saying that, she picked some things up for Yun Lan to write down, so that they could be carried to the kitchen of the small building later on.

"These hooves and lotus roots are fresh and tight, so I'll take them all. Then I'll just make some snacks and send it to the ancestor and his parents. There are a lot of water chestnuts here, so I'll take a basket," Qianqian said as she wrote it down.

"Miss wants to make green bean cake?" On the other side, before Mommy Zhou could open her mouth, Mama Qin followed up, "There's a green bean soaked for half a day in the kitchen. It's all leathered."

"Exactly, then I'll have to trouble Mama Qin to provide me with some." Qianqian nodded in agreement, then said, "Let's do that first. If there's anything else I need, I'll get Yun Lan to come and get it. I hope that mother Zhou can help."

"That will still make sense. Just tell me what Lady Yun Lan wants when the time comes." Mama Zhou nodded in agreement.

Qianqian ordered some rice flour powder that was commonly used, then led the group back to the Rain Small Building.

Yun Zhuyuan wanted to persuade Qianqian to take an afternoon nap before she could do anything, but when she saw Qianqian's excited expression, she didn't say anything. Forget it, Miss finally woke up with some difficulty.

Qianqian entered the kitchen and instructed the little girl to boil some water. She placed a big steamer on the stove and began to steam the water chestnuts and the green beans.

Qianqian rolled up her sleeves and started making the horseshoe cake after Ling Jiao and the mung bean cake was served. She first directed maidservant to peel off the horse's hooves, then cut them into two pieces with a knife. One part was ground into horseshoe juice with a small grinder about the size of a palm, filtered it carefully, and added cool boiled water; the other half was poured into a pot of water, added half a bowl of brown sugar, and began to simmer. When the horse's hooves had almost been boiled, she poured half of the freshly ground horseshoe water into the pot and boiled it for a while, stirring it for a moment until it became viscous.

At this time, the water caltrop and mung beans that had been steamed were already ripe. Qianqian quickly called for someone to take them down, and the water caltrop was steamed in a pot on top of the shell while it was still hot. Qianqian first poured water chestnut paste into the pot, poured a little oil, added a little sugar powder into the pot, and started a small fire stirring. When the water was thick, she immediately took it out, and took it out while it was still hot, she poured it into the oil scrubbed mold and put it aside to cool. When the time came for the steamed horseshoe cake to come out, she hurriedly told Yun Zhu to take it out.

Qianqian, on the other hand, took out the mungbean paste and added oil, then added the sugar powder and began to stir-fry on a small fire, only after the mung bean paste had become drier did she come out of the pot, and after waiting for it to cool down, she began to sift through it. After cooking the mungbean flour, it was extremely easy to stick, difficult to sieve, and required a lot of patience. When Qianqian finished sifting through the whole pile of green bean powder, her hands felt extremely sore. She had no choice but to hand over the final step of the compression mold to maidservant's subordinates. With more people and more strength, it didn't take long for the green bean cake to be shaped.

Qianqian had wanted to cut the cold horseshoe cake herself, but Yun Zhu had felt sorry for her and cut it for her, along with the spiced and green bean cake that had been poured out of the mold. Qianqian took a look and separated some of them into Pine Garden and some of them into people to send to the three older brothers' school.

"Miss, what do you want me to do for you?" When Yun Zhu saw that Qianqian had not dealt with the lotus roots, she thought she had forgotten, so she reminded her.

"I'll make some sauce and soak it for the night." As she said this, Qianqian hit her waist and made three snacks. Almost two to three hours had passed, and her body was exhausted. She was tired even at such a young age. "I'll go rest first. I'm a bit tired."

After Qianqian went back to her room, Little maidservant and the others finished cleaning the kitchen and locked the door. A black shadow sneakily sneaked into the kitchen and sneakily took away a piece of each pastry before quickly going out through the window and lightly closing it.

"Really, Young Lord, the moment I arrived, you asked me to guard that young lady, and even said that if there was any activity, I have to report it back. Tsk tsk, that young lady has made some pastries, so I'll steal some for you when it's new, hehe, ah! Pah! Pah! Pah! It's not stealing, it's taking! I, Qing Song, never steal anything!"
