pastry

This is too simple for Su Tang.

As long as anyone who has eaten chicken cakes, there is nothing to boast about.

Many ladies and wives of rich families will send people to buy them.

In the past, the supply was in short supply, that is to say, there are enough people in the shop earlier, otherwise it would be impossible to buy one or two hundred at a time.

Now the fifth round of questions is interesting.

However, it was clearly stated on the document that this was obtained by drawing lots from several officials, and there was no possibility of cheating.

Su Tang also thought it was a coincidence, but said: "If you compare it with chicken cakes, it's so boring. I can do other things."

The guard asked curiously: "What does Miss Su want to do? Will we be able to eat then?"

"Of course, I'll make it later, and I can put it in the shop for everyone to try." Su Tang nodded.

When it comes to pastries and desserts, Su Tang makes your mouth water!

Not to mention the Chinese dim sum, the current Chinese dim sum is already very good.

But the western dim sum is delicious too.

At that time, she was Xue Mei Niang, mango pancake, puffs, and egg tarts.

Just thinking about it makes my mouth water.

I happen to be fine recently, I can make desserts!

Just take advantage of this competition to make butter and cream.

Then you can make a lot of beautiful cakes and desserts.

Anyway, Su Tang really likes desserts! Maybe it matches her name too.

Speaking of Western-style desserts, the most important thing is butter and cream. These are milk products. After processing, delicious desserts can be made.

Su Tang took the documents and went back to the backyard. She thought carefully about the tastes of everyone in the Cang Qin Kingdom, and which one was simpler, and soon she chose a snack that was suitable for all ages.

That is, puffs!

Cream puffs!

Fragrant and soft puffs, one bite is a mouthful of sweet cream, in the mouth, it is sweet, soft and smooth, who would not like it.

A figure suddenly flashed in Su Tang's mind.

Maybe Mr. Qi wouldn't like it

He looks so cold and hard, it's not the kind of person who likes cream puffs!

But to make puffs, you need low-gluten flour and butter, things that can be bought everywhere in modern times, but now you have to make them yourself.

The low-gluten flour is fine, put the ordinary flour on the steamer and steam it for a quarter of an hour, and then dry it, or simply add starch to it.

Butter is a big problem, but to make butter, several processes are required.

Butter is creamy oil.

That is, the fat extracted from various animal milks. Compared with the usual vegetable oil and lard, butter is sweeter and more suitable for desserts.

If you want to get creamy oil, you have to buy milk first. After the milk is cooked, let it settle for a period of time. What floats in the bowl is cream.

After the cream is obtained, it is stirred, heated, filtered, and repeatedly refined, and finally the common butter block will be obtained.

If Su Tang wanted to advance to the fifth round of the God of Cooking Competition, he had to make butter in advance.

Fortunately, the fifth round will be ten days later, so she still has time.

Not only that, but you can also test in advance how well she is making desserts.

Fortunately, no matter whether it is the breakfast shop or the Xicheng Restaurant, they are on the right track. She just needs to check the accounts if she has nothing to do. She doesn't need to do too much.

You can also focus on the game.

Not only Su Tang was seriously preparing, but the other contestants started to prepare the raw materials after getting the topic.

The 30 people left now are all elites, and whoever is released is a chef in his own right.

When they first participated in the competition, they were all full of confidence, thinking that they would definitely win the first place, but only after participating in the competition did they realize that there is a sky beyond the sky, and they must do their best.

But among the thirty people, Su Tang, Jing Liang, Huang Yuetong, and Zhu Jinyuan received the most attention.

Except for Su Tang, the other three are all from family backgrounds, and their families are all leaders in the culinary circle of the capital.

Not to mention that the Huang family, a family of royal chefs, is in charge.

As for sugar

That was completely random entry, who would have thought that such a character would be hidden in the little West City

Because the previous rounds of competition had already had some influence, and those who are well-informed knew that the emperor went to the scene with Lord Hou Qi Tianyun, and even praised the food made by Su Tang.

Not everyone has such an honor.

And because the influence of the competition is growing, the fifth round of the competition will even have seats around it for the onlookers to watch more conveniently.

In this way, wouldn't it be more powerful

Almost the entire capital is discussing the fifth round of the God of Cooking Competition.

Fu Yin Pei, who proposed to start the God of Cooking Competition, never expected that this competition would attract so many people's attention.

Hubu Shangshu also came to ask.

It stands to reason that their two official positions should be similar.

But the Hubu Shangshu is different, his daughter and the current little emperor have been betrothed since they were young, and they will get married in autumn.

Can Fu Yin be disrespectful to the emperor's future father-in-law

However, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance just asked, and didn't say much.

This also surprised Mr. Pei, so he had someone customize the clothes and aprons for the 30 contestants, and built an oven and a small stove at the competition venue.

Basically every game position is a small kitchen.

It also allows players to perform better.

As for the fifth round of competition questions, they were not determined by everyone's brains, but drawn by lottery. It can only be said that they just happened to hit Su Tang's hands.

But if you only use chicken cakes as the content of the competition, it's a bit too simple.

But seeing the big from the small, everyone thinks that Su Tang must be good at making desserts!

Of course, she wouldn't mind any topics.

The squirrel mandarin fish last time had already broken her doubts, and many people were looking forward to what else she could come up with.

Since he is going to make desserts, Su Tang is going to visit the dairy farms in the suburbs of Beijing.

Dairy farms are generally located in the western suburbs. Today’s dairy farms are not of the modern scale. It is not bad for a family to raise four or five milk-producing cows.

Many cooks and snacks in the capital, or children who do not have enough milk, will go to buy some.

But it is the rich who can afford milk. After all, milk tastes fishy now, so it must be boiled carefully, and a lot of sugar is added to suppress the taste.

Ordinary people can't afford it.

Moreover, due to physical reasons, many people will suffer from diarrhea after drinking milk, so fewer people drink directly.

But if the milk is made into cream or milk tea, then there will be no such concerns.

Su Tang thought about it and decided to leave.

But as soon as she was about to go out, she saw Mr. Qi head-on. Mr. Qi came here very frequently these days, probably because others arrived before the meal time.

Su Tang had no choice but to bite the bullet and say hello, asking Mr. Qi to sit at home now.

The two chatted one after another, and the conversation was okay, but Su Tang didn't want to know what Mr. Qi's name was, nor what he did.

Isn't it good to simply maintain the relationship between a little cook and diners

Qi Tianyun also noticed Su Tang's attitude, he just raised his eyebrows and didn't say anything.

The future is long, so it's good to get along slowly.

Seeing Qi Tianyun coming again, Su Tang said helplessly, "It's just past time, why are you here?"

That is to say, at just ten o'clock at nine o'clock, Mr. Qi came over and waited for lunch!

This is probably too early.

The guards following were already used to Miss Su's tone, anyway, Master Hou didn't care about it!

Sure enough, Qi Tianyun said indifferently: "Oh? Is it so early? I didn't check the time when I went out."

Su Tang didn't believe it very much, you don't watch the time, with so many people under your command, don't you still watch the time!

No matter what, when you come, you are a guest.

Su Tang had no choice but to say: "I'm going out to do some errands right now, there's no one at home, I'm afraid I won't be able to entertain the distinguished guests."

Qi Tianyun looked at her amusedly: "Does Su Dong's family want to chase away guests?"

Calling Su Dong's family like this is naturally making fun of Su Tang.

But don't dare to say the word chaser!

No matter what business you do, there is no reason to drive away customers.

Seeing her embarrassed for a moment, Qi Tianyun asked, "Where are you going? Anyway, I'm fine, so I can go with you."

This made Su Tang even more confused.

Is she still in ancient times

What happened to Mr. Qi? with her

Su Tang said tactfully: "No need, I can do it myself. I'll hire a carriage later, and I'll be there soon."

Qi Tianyun nodded, and changed the subject: "Forget it, I brought a pony today and you happen to be able to ride it, so forget it."

pony

horse riding? ?

She had never ridden a horse before, so she became interested in it instantly.

Qi Tianyun flashed a smile: "If the place you go to is relatively open, you can just learn to ride."

Su Tang struggled for a while, but still nodded: "Is it really possible? I'm going to the western suburbs, so I can ride a horse!"

After talking about Su Tang, I felt a little regretful, but this kind of opportunity is rare.

Don't look at her making a lot of money now, but if she wants to have a pony of her own, she still can't afford it!

Now that I have the opportunity to try it, of course I am excited.

Horseback riding must be fun!

Qi Tianyun didn't expect it to be so smooth, he brought Xiao Ma here early today, and planned to take Su Tang to the school field outside the city.

When he rode a horse to Xicheng Restaurant before, he saw Su Tang's eyes.

He was right, Su Tang really liked it.

When Su Tang saw the pony in Qi Tianyun's mouth, his eyes became straight.

The lines and posture of this little pony, why is it the same as Les Lais in the middle of the horse!

And it looks golden!

Golden horses seem to be very rare, but this one is definitely extraordinary.

"It's so beautiful." Seeing such a horse for the first time, Su Tang couldn't walk.

The golden and vigorous horse was shining in the sun, and even many passers-by stopped. Such a horse, or a pony, is really rare in the world.

Su Tang couldn't recognize the breed of this horse, but he could tell that this horse was absolutely extraordinary.

Qi Tianyun said, "Try it, it's very docile."

The guards couldn't help thinking in their hearts, this time the Western Regions paid tribute to 300 sweat-blooded BMWs, and this horse is also the best among the 300 horses, so can they not be docile

But Lord Hou wanted this one, obviously intending to give it to Miss Su.

Thinking of Miss Su's good culinary skills, it would be like a punishment for Master Hou to stop eating. From this point of view, it seems to be worthwhile

With the help of Qi Tianyun, Su Tang finally climbed onto the horse, thought for a while and took out a piece of caramel from his pocket.

Caramel is maltose, which is what horses like the most if I remember correctly.

But Qi Tianyun, who was originally relaxed, subconsciously grabbed Su Tang's wrist, frowned and said, "How did you know that horses like to eat caramel?!"

This is the key to raising horses. As an ordinary citizen, Su Tang rarely comes into contact with horses on weekdays. How does she know

Su Tang paused, which made Qi Tianyun subconsciously let go.

"Feel sorry."

It was because he was thinking too much. Su Tang had been checked by someone before, and his life and past were recorded in detail, so it would not be a detailed work.

It is estimated that the recent military affairs have caused him a headache, so everything is in trouble.

When Su Tang was caught by him, he woke up for the first time.

After she came here, her life was so smooth that she even forgot about this kind of thing.

And dare to sit on an obviously extraordinary horse.

Even if you don't know the identity of Mr. Qi, you can see that he must be extraordinary, how dare you get close to him just because of a horse today.

Su Tang's expression remained unchanged, but he was already ringing the alarm in his heart.

It's just that I have already agreed to Mr. Qi today, so it's hard to refuse.

But after today, it's better to stay away from this person, otherwise who knows what trouble will happen.

Qi Tianyun said sorry, Su Tang said lightly: "It's nothing, I just heard it from time to time."

After one sentence, the relationship between the two was obviously tense.

Looking at the atmosphere, the guards were sweating a little.

Wasn't it fine just now

Why did it suddenly change!

Master Hou is also true, why is he so fierce to girls
