Since Su Tang said this, many people are wondering if they want to get involved.
Especially for the female relatives in the capital, if they could leave a recipe they sent up in the recipe and write their own names, how great would that be
Those who act quickly are already doing it.
Left and right are just recipes for cooking, so what's the point.
But when I sent a few over, Su Tang said no, and then told me what I wanted.
It had to be simple, homely, delicious, and use common ingredients.
What kind of lobster, abalone, goose wings and bear's paws will not work.
The best is cabbage, spinach and radish.
Now many people are dumbfounded, they want to cook this kind of dish
And simple, convenient, delicious, this is too difficult.
In the end, Su Tang gave out a recipe, scrambled eggs with green peppers, even if the eggs were more precious, they were not that precious.
Not to mention green peppers, after the farmers plant a few pepper seedlings, they can't finish the fruits that are produced in summer.
But these two simple ingredients can scramble delicious green pepper eggs, but the method of beating the eggs is cleverer, and the seasonings inside are different.
But they are the simplest ingredients.
Su Tang even made vinegared cabbage, and let the noble ladies who came to ask for advice taste it.
A group of people ate with red eyes, but they couldn't stand the chopsticks at all.
It was so delicious after all!
Everyone has to admit that such simple ingredients are so delicious!
After Su Tang set the standard, everyone realized how difficult it is to organize this recipe.
After all, there are really not many delicious and simple dishes.
Only those who study carefully can make simple and delicious dishes.
But it also gets more people actively involved in the event.
After all, if they do what others can't do, wouldn't they be happier.
Gradually, more and more people came to discuss cooking skills with Su Tang and adjust recipes.
More and more people realized why Marquis Weiyuan liked this woman.
She is lazy, but she does things very neatly, and she is very gentle with people, and will not change anyone's status.
Besides, Su Tang is also well-informed, and a few casual words can amaze many people.
But she still doesn't like to show off, she will only explain when someone asks her.
Who wouldn't like such a person
Qi Tianyun discovered that recently Su Tang had a lot of customers.
And every time a guest came over, he had to be hidden.
After finally closing the door to thank the guests one day, Su Tang was still compiling the recipes, at most talking to him a few words, focusing more on the recipes.
Su Tang pretended not to see that Qi Tianyun was looking at him, coughed lightly, "Is there something wrong?"
Qi Tianyun smiled: "Busy?"
"It's really busy." Su Tang said immediately, afraid that Qi Tianyun would say anything else.
Since Qi Tianyun talked about getting married several times last time, she is now afraid that the two of them will suddenly get married while they are talking.
Qi Tianyun pulled her out from the desk, nodded at her eyes: "Liar."
Su Tang's ears turned red immediately, and he had no choice but to say, "Isn't this a compilation book? And I'm progressing very fast."
"Of course the progress is fast." Qi Tianyun couldn't help laughing, "Let all the noble ladies in the capital help you, and teach them how to draw stick figures, can you not hurry up?"
Su Tang said uncomfortably: "Anyway, everyone is idle when they are idle. Most of the noble ladies know calligraphy and painting. It is very easy to get started."
Yes, now Su Tang is not satisfied with just asking everyone to provide recipes, it is best to follow her example and draw the recipes!
At the beginning, everyone was a bit puzzled, but Su Tang sent green pepper eggs and hot and sour cabbage to several houses.
The female relatives inside can know how to do it just by looking at the picture, and they know it very clearly.
Then let the cook at home fry it according to the instructions, and the taste will be even better.
The reason why Su Tang gave these things is also simple, that is, if it can be drawn, it will be the best.
Then someone came to Su Tang's home to learn how to draw stick figures.
Just like what Su Tang said, ladies don't talk about classics, poems and songs, but they have all learned it.
If you understand the basics of stick figure drawing, many people can get started on the same day. The difference is whether the drawing is too complicated.
But with Su Tang in charge, this is not a problem.
The Imperial Academy was also a little surprised when they knew this progress.
Originally thought that the compilation of these one hundred home-cooked dishes would take several years, but now that Su Tang is alone, the progress has been directly accelerated.
Moreover, the officials who cooperated with Su Tang also discovered that Su Tang is a very methodical person in doing things.
Every step she takes has a plan.
If she were an official of the Hanlin Academy, and she led everyone to compile books, it is estimated that the progress of any book would be accelerated.
But this is just a thought, after all, Su Tang is a woman, so it is enough for her to compile food books.
Su Tang has also heard these sour words, but so what, it is true to do what you are doing well.
Qi Tianyun naturally heard these words too, but he always had a way to keep people from speaking, but Su Tang was completely unaware of these words.
Qi Tianyun intentionally took her to relax, and said, "Do you remember those yams? They've sprouted, do you want to see them?"
Potatoes
Su Tang immediately became interested, as if it had been planted for more than a month
It should indeed sprout.
Artichokes are also potatoes, this is indeed a good thing, who doesn't like potatoes!
Su Tang nodded immediately: "I want to go and have a look, let's go?"
When it comes to food, she is very enthusiastic.
Qi Tianyun finally pulled her out from the pile of books, and now he finally went out for a stroll.
It is now the end of September, and the weather is getting cooler. People who are afraid of the cold have already put on thicker clothes.
Qi Tianyun opened his mouth and said: "I'll get you some fox furs later. You can see what you want to do. It will be winter soon, and it will be very cold."
Fox fur
Su Tang hasn't worn it yet.
But Su Tang thought of another thing: "I remember that there are still a few seedlings in the things I brought back. Have you planted those?"
The main reason is that Su Tang saw that there were cotton seedlings in it, which is very important.
If cotton can be planted well, ordinary people can also wear cotton clothes.
Instead of relying on all kinds of leather goods.
Qi Tianyun nodded: "No matter what, we are planting."
Only when Su Tang arrives will I know what it means to grow whatever it is!
Because there is a greenhouse in the royal village!
Maybe it wasn't called anything in ancient times, but they really had greenhouses!
Burn a charcoal fire around the house to increase the temperature and let the room temperature adapt to the temperature of fruit and vegetable growth, which is almost the same as a modern greenhouse!
But Su Tang thought for a while and suddenly realized that in her time in ancient times, there were actually greenhouses. For example, in the Ming Dynasty, there was a Huangzhuang that specially used off-season fruits and vegetables to supply the royal family.
Su Tang had never lived in ancient times, so he forgot about it.
The wisdom of the ancients is also infinite, and it seems that it is not difficult to build an ancient greenhouse.
It shouldn't be surprising that Cangqin now has something like a greenhouse
Qi Tianyun thought Su Tang was a little confused, and explained: "Here, the soil kang is used to increase the temperature inside. The powerful farmers can grow summer fruits and vegetables well in the cold winter months. Many things in my ice cellar come from here."
Qi Tianyun lifted the thick curtain and let Su Tang in.
Inside, just as Qi Tianyun said, the temperature brought by the soil kang is suitable for the growth of plants. It is still September, and the trees outside have withered, but inside there are blooming flowers, and there are many out-of-season vegetables.
Su Tang sighed in his heart, no matter when, the wisdom of the ancient working people is infinite.
Walking around in the greenhouse, Su Tang already had a lot of recipes in his heart.
But the purpose of their visit this time is not these, but the potatoes that have sprouted.
Those who cultivated potatoes were not only farmers who were familiar with the fields, but also officials who were on board the ship.
When they saw that this kind of food was prevalent on the other side of the ocean, they asked more about how the food was grown and what environment it was suitable for.
Their records are of great benefit to planting.
But it's still a pleasant surprise to see the potatoes sprouting.
It's really rare to see foods that germinate so quickly.
Looking at the crops of buds, the farmland official granulation here is obviously happy.
Su Tang vaguely knew that potatoes, that is, the growing environment of yams, liked coolness. They were usually planted in August and October, and they would bear fruit in six months.
The current batch was planted at the end of August, and the potatoes will be ripe in April next year.
Just enough to fill everyone up.
So the appearance of potatoes is really important.
Perhaps in a modern environment, especially in Huaguo, where food is plentiful, people will not feel that there is anything special about it.
But like in a continent where food is poor and there are no chemical fertilizers and pesticides, potatoes are the food for all poor people.
Presumably in the Cangqin Kingdom, it will be equally important.
Su Tang is happy just looking at it!
And the cotton in the greenhouse is also growing very well.
so good.
Just when Su Tang was about to leave, he suddenly saw a seedling in the corner, looking extremely thin.
But she couldn't be more familiar with that leaf.
This looks like a tomato? !
Did she read it right
Su Tang pointed to the little Miao Miao: "What is this?"
The agricultural officer said: "It is also a seedling brought from the boat, but there is only one seedling. I have taken good care of it, but it is still the same."
It doesn't bloom or bear fruit, just this one.
After Su Tang approached, he was even more sure that this was the tomato seedling!
The current tomato seedlings are relatively thin and not as big as the offspring, but the leaves are correct.
Last time she thought she didn't bring back tomatoes this time!
But it was brought back!
It's just that she didn't notice it, and everyone didn't pay attention to it!
The agricultural officer explained: "Maybe it's a grass?"
"It's not grass." Su Tang tried to find an excuse for himself, "I've heard people say that this kind of grass seems to be able to bear fruit, but it requires a higher temperature. It may be a little cold here at the edge of the greenhouse."
It's not that the agricultural officials don't care, but that plants that don't know their habits are basically placed on the edge, neither hot nor cold, and they must survive first.
After all, there is only such a one, who knows what will happen.
But as soon as Su Tang said, the agricultural officer nodded: "If that's the case, then we will immediately transplant it to the middle, but you said the result, is it delicious?"
This is the most important thing. Ordinary fruit doesn't matter.
It is delicious, or the yield is high, this is important, and it has the value of cultivation.
Su Tang immediately said: "Not only is it delicious, but the yield is also very high. I heard someone say that if one or two of these fruits are planted in summer, it will be enough for the whole family of five to eat."
?
so exaggerated? ?
Can such a small Miao Miao really feed a family of five
Of course, what Su Tang blurted out was actually a modern seedling variety, but this kind of short one can feed three people without any problem.
But Su Tang didn't explain it, because it was a tomato!
This is a tomato!
Thinking of the taste of tomatoes, Su Tang is drooling.
The rest of Su Tang didn't say anything more, after all, it would be wrong to say too much, if someone asked her, who told her, what should I do
But Qi Tianyun didn't ask.
It seems that he will not ask these questions.
Su Tang just felt guilty for a while, and she'll be fine soon, anyway, she didn't lie, she was telling the truth, okay
After coming out of the Royal Farm, Su Tang felt refreshed, how could such a good thing happen.
Wait until next year, and they'll have something delicious to eat!
This also greatly increased Su Tang's enthusiasm for compiling recipes.
How can there be no potatoes in the home-cooked recipes!
Be sure to add lots of potatoes!
This makes many people puzzled. After all, artichokes are not a common food now. Why does Sutang have to compile artichoke recipes into it
In the next few years, everyone will understand that Su Tang has long understood that yams have a high yield and are easy to grow, and will become the most familiar food on the table of the common people in the future!
But that's something for later, so I won't mention it for now.
The current yams are still being carefully served in the hands of the agricultural officer.
Qi Tianyun looked at Su Tang's high-spirited look, and was also happy for her, but he kept repeating what was in his heart and didn't say it out.
That's when it's time to get married.
He is in a hurry.
But Qi Tianyun knew that Su Tang couldn't be forced, even though she was usually lazy, no one could force her to do what she didn't want to do.
Even if he is Lord Hou, this is not acceptable.
The compilation of Su Tang's book was also very smooth. The main reason is that she mobilized too many people, and she also told everyone the method of stick figures, and the speed was raised immediately.
Moreover, her reputation among the female family members in the capital gradually improved.
Those who looked down on her before thought that she came from a small family and didn't understand anything.
But when he had a close contact with Su Tang, did he realize that Su Tang didn't understand anything? That was downright funny.
Qi Tianyun didn't expect that by relying on Su Tang himself, he had already gained a good reputation among the women's families in the capital, and he didn't even need to make a move.
At the same time, the news of Yangzhou Mengjing Pavilion also came.
If it wasn't for winter, Yangzhou would like Su Tang to come over and let her guide the work.
When Mengjing Pavilion was in the capital, it was very popular.
Everyone knows that the things here are very expensive, but everyone wants to come. At the beginning, people without status could not enter the door of Dreamland Pavilion.
After opening the door for a month, the situation gradually improved.
Of course, there are also people who can't understand Dreamland Pavilion.
But they changed their views immediately after the garden party of the God of Cooking Competition ended.
There's another piece of old news that hasn't been said before.
At that time, Mengjing Pavilion was distributing food in other courtyards, and basically as soon as it was brought up, it would be snatched away.
No way, it's so delicious.
Those who have eaten want to eat again, and those who have not eaten want to taste the taste.
During that visit to the garden, there were three things that became famous, one was Su Tang in the Chef God Contest, the other was the fireworks that night, and the third was how delicious the desserts at Mengjing Pavilion were.
After that day, Mengjing Pavilion suddenly flooded with a large wave of business.
Among other things, the sales of the cheapest puffs and mochi in Mengjing Pavilion suddenly increased.
Many people also figured it out. I can't afford such expensive desserts. I can buy puffs. After all, puffs have always been at that price, ten cents a piece, and a plate of ten silver.
purchase!
Gritting your teeth, you can still buy it!
The price of mochi is not too expensive, buy it!
Have a taste!
The people who bought it at the beginning were afraid that the people in Mengjing Pavilion would not sell it to them.
But the customers found that no matter how you dress or what your status is, the maids inside are all polite, even if they just ask the price, no one treats them coldly.
All of a sudden, the reputation of Mengjing Pavilion became even better. Some people who couldn't afford it even wanted to sit in the waiting area, but the maids didn't stop them. As long as they didn't hinder other guests, it was fine.
As for those ladies and ladies who can afford sweethearts, they actually have nothing to say when they feel the envious eyes in the waiting area.
After all, everyone is polite on the surface.
These things are made by Su Tangrang.
If it doesn't show something special, how can someone send money with peace of mind.
On the other hand, Yangzhou has a different style from the capital.
The maids and maids inside are all well-dressed and greet the guests in the most fashionable materials at the moment.
But they are not as gentle as the maids in Mengjing Pavilion in the capital, but have an arrogant look.
It's obviously a proper smile, but if you don't have the confidence in your heart, you don't dare to approach her at all.
Looking at the letter from Yangzhou, Su Tang always felt that this was like a shopping guide in a luxury store
You can tell at a glance who has a lot of money and whether they can afford it.
Then read the letter from Yangzhou.
Maids and maids basically have two attitudes towards rich guests and poor guests.
This makes wealthy customers feel more unique and happier to spend.
Not only that, the sales volume of Yangzhou Mengjing Pavilion on the first day was an astonishing figure.
In the next four or five days, Yuan Hongwei, the steward of Yangzhou Mengjing Pavilion, made a lot of money.
You must know that he also gets dividends, the money is simply huge profits.
Another flower boss in charge of Mengjing Pavilion was Yuan Hongwei's former employer. This flower boss himself was in the silk business and made a lot of money.
But compared with Mengjing Pavilion, it is a world of difference.
So the letters from them floated over like snowflakes, Sun Qiaoshan didn't care about them, and only handed them over to Su Tang.
Su Tang looked at the numbers and was speechless. He knew that the area in the south of the Yangtze River was rich, but he didn't expect it to be so rich. No wonder it is a land of fish and rice. It's amazing.
According to Yuan Hongwei, only the nobles from Yangzhou have come to taste it recently, and the wealthy families from Suzhou and Hangzhou have not yet come.
When they come over, it is not an exaggeration to say that Yangzhou Mengjing Pavilion is making a lot of money every day.
But there is one requirement, that is, these distinguished guests have a lot of contacts with the capital, and know that there are many new products in the Mengjing Pavilion in the capital, but they only have five or six kinds of desserts in the Mengjing Pavilion in Yangzhou, and they asked if they could synchronize with the capital.
The answer is of course yes.
cannot.
The main store must be different, and with so many products withdrawn at one time, there will always be those who are left out, so it is better to launch slowly.
And Yangzhou is slower than Beijing.
This is the only way to show dignity.
Su Tang really grasped everyone's psychology.
The Mengjing Pavilion in Yangzhou has already set off a wave of enthusiasm there. Even after desserts become popular, it is estimated that it will secure its throne.
Expensive and stylish, isn’t that what many people are after.
Su Tang pressed the letters and clicked his tongue several times in his heart.
There are so many rich people.
But is dessert enough to fill you up
It's better to have a real meal.
Su Tang watched the weather outside gradually getting colder.
At this time, of course I want to eat fried chicken and chips with soup
