Chapter 210 Little Cotton Jacket
Although the wind was howling outside, the house was cozy and there was a warm and harmonious atmosphere.
Every dish on the table has been carefully prepared, and each dish makes people happy. Each dish has its own characteristics and deliciousness.
The honey-glazed barbecued pork is soft, smooth, sweet and juicy in every bite.
You can taste the tenderness of the barbecued pork and the sweetness of the honey in every bite. Every bite makes you feel satisfied, and the sense of happiness that comes naturally is simply indescribable.
Braised winter bamboo shoots are crisp and sweet, with the right balance of salty and sweet.
The winter bamboo shoots are soaked in the sweet and delicious soup. Pick up a piece with chopsticks and taste it.
When you take a bite, the crispness and freshness of the winter bamboo shoots mixed with the salty fragrance of the sauce burst in your mouth, and you can also feel a hint of sweetness.
As you chew it, the fragrance spreads between your lips and teeth, making you unable to stop.
The fresh shrimp trotter sashimi is sweet, tender and smooth.
The blanched choy heart is tender but not soft, crisp and sweet.
Even the bowl of green olive abalone soup in front of each person was exceptionally sweet and had a long aftertaste.
Every dish and every food here is extremely delicious.
Every bite brings the ultimate enjoyment, making people immersed in it and reluctant to leave.
The Shen family ate the dishes on the table while chatting about family matters.
The whole family is having a great time together, and the scene is extremely harmonious and beautiful, making people want to indulge in this leisurely and comfortable environment.
After the meal, the maids cleared the dishes and chopsticks from the table and served the digestive tea that had been prepared.
In case everyone was too full to eat dessert, Shen Huazheng specially asked someone to make tangerine peel, black plum and hawthorn tea to help everyone digest the food.
The tangerine peel, black plum and hawthorn tea was still steaming. The complex aroma of food in the room slowly dissipated and was soon covered by a faint sour smell.
Shen Huazheng looked at everyone and said, "If you have food stagnation at night, it's not good for your health. This tangerine peel, black plum and hawthorn tea is the best for digestion and relieving greasiness, and it strengthens the stomach and eliminates stagnation. Although tangerine peel, black plum and hawthorn taste sour, I added rock sugar to it."
This digestive tea contains the finest dried tangerine peel, hawthorn, black plum, and a little bit of chrysanthemum. Worried that the Shen family would not be able to accept the sour taste, Shen Huazheng also added a proper amount of rock sugar.
As the saying goes, "Dried tangerine peel is a hundred years old, and ginseng is a thousand years old."
There is a saying among the people that "one ounce of tangerine peel is worth one ounce of gold."
The value of good tangerine peel can even be compared with ginseng and gold.
It is mentioned in Dan Xi's Xin Fa that "to treat food stagnation, qi stagnation, abdominal distension and pain, it can be used together with hawthorn, Shenqu, etc., such as Baohe Pills."
This means that eating hawthorn can help digestion and strengthen the stomach and digest food.
The combination of tangerine peel and hawthorn is a common health tea, which is both medicine and food.
You can also drink this tea after drinking to sober up and relieve stomach gas.
[The health tea made by boiling tangerine peel and hawthorn together not only doubles the effect of digestion, but also can reduce phlegm and relieve cough. Add some black plum and rock sugar, the taste will be even better, and it also has the effect of moistening the lungs. ]
Shen Zhaonian's eyes were full of smiles: "Zheng'er is still very thoughtful."
A little cotton-padded jacket is a cotton-padded jacket, thoughtful and considerate in everything.
Zhou also looked at Shen Huazheng with a smile. It was really a blessing to have such a smart and well-behaved daughter.
Shen Ke Ting and his two brothers were also very touched. Zheng'er not only cooked for them, but also prepared health-preserving tea for them after the meal.
Everyone picked up their cups and drank the tangerine peel, black plum and hawthorn tea.
The tea soup is bright red, warm and smooth at the entrance, and slightly sour.
After a moment, the sweet taste penetrates your throat.
The sourness of tangerine peel combined with the slight sourness of hawthorn, plus the natural sweet and sour taste of black plum, creates a refreshing and sweet taste.
It tastes sour and sweet, very appetizing.
What Zheng'er said makes a lot of sense. Adding these ingredients together not only makes the food taste better, but also relieves the feeling of fullness in the stomach.
Shen Huazheng also picked up the cup, brought it to her lips, blew on it, and drank it slowly.
She squinted her eyes slightly with enjoyment, feeling the comfort of the tea flowing down her throat and its unique taste.
Hawthorn itself is rich in pectin and vitamins, and the brewed tea has a delicate, soft and smooth taste.
The black plum is sour with a hint of sweetness, and the sweetness of rock sugar neutralizes the sourness of hawthorn, creating a unique taste with just the right sweetness and sourness.
Take a sip and the fragrance will linger on your lips and teeth, making your mouth water.
After a long period of storage, tangerine peel smells like a strong citrus aroma and a light bitterness.
The addition of tangerine peel makes the sweet taste of the tea more obvious, while also bringing a hint of tangerine peel's unique aftertaste and mellowness.
When you savor it, you can taste the sourness of black plum and hawthorn, and even a cool feeling. It does not make the taste too sweet, but makes the aftertaste last longer.
When you taste it carefully, various different aromas are intertwined in your mouth, and the taste is rich and layered, forming a unique and pleasant taste experience that makes you feel refreshed.
Everyone drank tangerine peel, black plum and hawthorn tea one sip after another. It was sweet and sour with a distinct aftertaste.
After swallowing the tea in my mouth, the fresh and elegant fragrance still lingers in my mouth, and I feel a lot more comfortable all over.
……
Before I finished my digestive tea, another group of maids came in with trays.
Everyone: (☆▽☆)
Yay, there's something delicious again!!!
The maids came over and placed the porcelain plates on the table.
Everyone stopped drinking their digestive tea and looked up at the round and chewy "snowballs" on the porcelain plate.
The snow-white outer skin is translucent, and the filling can be vaguely seen, and a layer of finely shredded coconut is sprinkled on top.
It looks great, and just looking at it increases your appetite.
"Zheng'er, what is this?"
Shen Huazheng put down the cup in her hand: "This is coconut glutinous rice cake. This side has peanut filling and sesame filling, and that side has matcha lava and custard lava. You can try it."
Everyone understood that this chubby snowball is called glutinous rice cake.
"Okay, okay, let's try it now."
Shen Zhaonian picked up a glutinous rice ball with matcha filling and looked at it carefully.
The glutinous rice balls are white and soft, and are dotted with snowflake-like coconut flakes, which are poetic and picturesque, very elegant and unique.
It reminds people of the white snow in winter, which has a unique artistic conception.
Shen Zhaonian smelled the sweet aroma at the tip of his nose, brought the glutinous rice cake to his mouth and took a bite.
When you take a bite, your teeth first feel the fine but very noticeable layer of coconut flakes on the outside, followed by the soft and sticky outer skin.
The rich coconut aroma suddenly leaps onto the tip of the tongue, then lingers between the lips and teeth, and even throughout the entire mouth.
The outer skin of glutinous rice is sticky, elastic, and can be drawn into threads.
As I continued to bite deeper, I tasted the runny matcha filling, which was delicate and elegant, subtle but not vulgar.
As you chew it, you can taste the fragrance of glutinous rice, fresh tea and coconut intertwined with each other, and every part of your mouth is filled with this gentle and lingering fragrance.
Several completely different flavors are perfectly combined together. The refreshing tea aroma dilutes the sweetness of glutinous rice skin and coconut flakes, and the sweetness of glutinous rice skin and coconut flakes in turn alleviates the slight bitterness of matcha.
Coupled with the soft, chewy texture of glutinous rice balls, it brings the ultimate enjoyment to the taste buds.
Shen Zhaonian ate the glutinous rice balls one bite after another. Sweetness and fragrance intertwined on the tip of his tongue, and his heart also felt sweet.
My daughter knows that he likes to drink tea, so she always makes some tea-flavored fillings when making snacks.
Wow, I am so touched!!!
Zhou on the side was also happily eating glutinous rice balls. She was eating the ones with custard filling.
Her favorite is the lava custard.
Take a bite, the soft and slightly elastic glutinous rice skin wrapped with unique fillings blooms on the tip of your tongue.
It has a rich milky flavor, a mixture of sweet and salty, and the crunchy texture of salted egg yolk in the middle.
The golden custard filling flows out continuously, which is delicate and rich, sweet but not greasy.
The light milky aroma mixed with sweetness instantly permeates between the lips and tongue, and also carries the unique salty flavor of salted egg yolk...
The rich milky aroma rushes straight to the heart, instantly filling up the taste buds with happiness, and it feels like no matter how much you eat, it's not enough.
Delicious, really delicious!!
Shen Ke Ting savored the glutinous rice cake in his mouth carefully. The matcha filling was like a mouthful of lava with a strong tea flavor.
The faint tea fragrance and the sweet taste are intertwined and bloom on the tip of the tongue. The feeling is truly wonderful.
After the sweetness, the rich tea aroma spreads in the mouth, chasing and entwining with the remaining sweet aroma in the mouth.
The lingering aftertaste of the tea aroma and the sweetness of the glutinous rice balls linger in your mouth for a long time.
Shen Ke Ting swallowed the glutinous rice cake in his mouth, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
The refreshing tea soup flows smoothly into your mouth, and the elegant tea aroma brushes across the tip of your tongue. As the aroma of the matcha filling blooms again on your taste buds, a stunning sweet fragrance bursts out in your mouth.
Shen Ke Ting narrowed his eyes happily and sighed in his heart.
So comfortable~~
Shen Kesi was eating glutinous rice balls when he looked up inadvertently and was surprised to find that Shen Keheng was not eating the glutinous rice balls, but drinking digestive tea.
He knew his younger brother very well and immediately understood what was going on.
"Are you full?"
Shen Keheng immediately denied: "Of course not, I just haven't decided which flavor of glutinous rice cake I want to eat."
In fact, he did eat a little too much for dinner, and the feeling of fullness in his abdomen lingered for a long time after the meal.
Fortunately, Shen Huazheng prepared some tangerine peel, black plum and hawthorn tea which can help digestion and eliminate accumulation, and Shen Keheng drank two cups.
I feel much more comfortable now and not as full as before.
There is some room in my stomach, just right for eating glutinous rice balls.
At most, drink a cup of digestive tea after eating, and then go for a walk to continue digesting the food~~
Hehehehe~~~
Shen Keheng picked up a glutinous rice ball nearby. Before he put it into his mouth, a rich coconut aroma hit his nose.
smell good! !
The skin of the glutinous rice cake is as white as snow and as soft as cotton, and it looks delicious.
Shen Keheng brought the glutinous rice cake to his mouth and took a bite.
Tsk tsk, this taste...
It's really amazing.
The glutinous rice ball he got was filled with sesame filling. When he took a bite, the glutinous rice skin was chewy but not sticky to his teeth.
The sesame filling inside is delicate and dense, with a hint of sweetness, but it doesn’t make people feel too greasy when eating it.
The soft and glutinous texture, the rich aroma of sesame, and the fragrance of the coconut flakes on the outside make it more fragrant the more you chew it.
After Shen Keheng finished eating the sesame-filled glutinous rice balls, he tried one with peanut filling.
The soft, sweet glutinous rice balls contain roasted peanuts, which add a crispy and fragrant taste.
Soft and sticky outer skin, rich filling inside.
When you take a bite, two completely different textures of soft and crispy explode in your mouth at the same time, mixed with the crispy and crunchy peanut crumbs, presenting a unique delicious taste in your mouth.
Shen Keheng swallowed the glutinous rice balls in his mouth and couldn't help but scream.
"Zheng'er, this glutinous rice cake is so delicious!!"
He didn't like sweets much before and always thought they were too sweet.
However, all the sweet foods made by Shen Huazheng still retain the original taste of the food. They are not covered by greasy sweetness and are just the right amount of sweetness.
Just like this glutinous rice cake.
Shen Kesi also added: "This glutinous rice cake has a very unique taste. The skin is softer and chewier than the snowy mooncake. With the filling inside, it is fragrant and sweet, but not greasy."
The others nodded, expressing their agreement with the brothers.
"The fillings of these glutinous rice balls are as rich as those of mooncakes, but the taste is completely different from that of mooncakes, which is really wonderful."
"That's right, just like tea-flavored mooncakes and tea-flavored glutinous rice balls have completely different tastes, each with its own delicious taste."
“The same goes for the lava custard. Even though it’s the same filling, the crust is changed and it tastes completely different.”
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Shen Huazheng made mooncakes with four kinds of crusts: syrup crust, crispy crust, ice crust and crystal crust.
The slightly harder syrup skin and crispy skin taste completely different from glutinous rice balls.
Even the equally soft and glutinous ice skin and crystal skin mooncakes have a subtly different taste from glutinous rice balls.
Shen Huazheng smiled and said, "If you like, eat more. I was in a hurry this time, so I only made these fillings. Next time, when I have all the ingredients, I will make some other fillings for you to try."
[You can also add taro paste and purple sweet potato to glutinous rice cakes, but the ones with fruit filling are the best. Next time, you can make some glutinous rice cakes with fruit fillings, such as orange, peach, melon, and strawberry. But the ones with mango filling are the best. ]
[It would be nice if we had mangoes now. We can not only make mango glutinous rice balls, but also mango pancakes, mango snow meringue, mango mille-feuille, mango mousse, mango papaya milk cake, mango milk jelly...]
Everyone in the Shen family: (￣﹃￣)
Stop thinking about it, stop thinking about it. I really can’t bear it anymore.
These glutinous rice balls are so delicious that it is really hard to imagine how delicious those "even more delicious glutinous rice balls with fruit fillings" that Zheng'er mentioned are.
I want to taste it right away~~
And what is that mango?? It can be made into so many foods!!
Although these names of food are the first time I have heard them, I know they must be delicious.
No, I have to ask around and see if I can find this thing called mango.
Except for Shen Huazheng, everyone else in the Shen family was eating absent-mindedly.
Everyone was thinking about how to find out and find the mangoes.
Shen Huazheng had no idea about this. She was happily eating glutinous rice balls and drinking tea to relieve her greasiness. She felt so comfortable.
Really delicious, hehehe~~
