Chapter 61 Making Fruit Salad
After Xiao Zhu went to arrange the delivery, he looked at the time, it was three o'clock in the afternoon.
It was still early, and Jiang Yue went to the kitchen with a basket of apples, dragon fruit, strawberries, mangoes, bananas, and watermelons to make fruit salad for Yao Chi.
She said that these fruits were bought from fruit farmers on the road and kept in ice.
Now everyone knows that she can make ice, so it’s normal that she can keep fruits and vegetables fresh.
At this time, the imperial chefs in the kitchen were busy preparing dinner. Now that they were not in the palace, the dishes were not as exquisite.
There is no way to follow the rules set by our ancestors. Emperor Mingde had already issued an edict to deal with the matter immediately.
In addition, a good cook cannot cook without rice, so even the imperial chef in the palace cannot cook anything good.
As soon as Jiang Yue entered the kitchen, the royal chef that Princess Yao Chi had brought with her came up to greet her.
"Princess, why are you in the kitchen? Is there anything you need?" Liu Yuchu had met Jiang Yue once before and learned how to make cakes. Now, he could make other snacks by learning how to make cakes, so Liu Yuchu was very grateful.
Jiang Yue waved her hand and said, "Go ahead and do your work. I want to make some snacks myself. You don't need to wait on me."
Liu Yuchu looked at her hesitantly. Today, the news spread throughout the royal family that Concubine Liang had found the only daughter of the fifth princess of Liang State who was living abroad.
It was Miss Jiang Yue whom he had met at the post station before. She was a princess, but now she had to cook for herself and refused to be served. He was a little afraid.
When Yao Chi heard Hongmei say that she saw Jiang Yue in the kitchen, she immediately ran over happily.
Hearing this, she immediately said, "Liu Yuchu, you go ahead and do your work first. I'll help my sister." As she said this, she asked Bai Lian to roll up her sleeves for her.
"Sister, your clothes look very cool. Did you make them yourself? I'll make two for you later."
Jiang Yue was wearing a corset like the chivalrous women in Jianghu, with a vest and trousers underneath.
It is completely different from Yao Chi’s long skirt with wide sleeves, and it focuses on simplicity and freshness.
"I have a few new sets. I'll give two to my sister later."
Roll up your sleeves and start making fruit salad. First, take out the fruits from the basket and put them into the ice basin that is emitting smoke.
Yao Chi looked at the fruits she took out and saw that she had never seen them before. She picked up a bright red strawberry out of curiosity.
"Sister, what is this?"
Jiang Yue took a look and said, "This is strawberry, a kind of fruit. I passed by a village before and there was an old lady growing them. They tasted very sweet, so I bought a lot."
Yao Chi washed herself in the basin, put it close to her nose, and a sweet smell came into her nose.
"Sister, do I need to peel the skin? There are too many seeds on it. How can I eat it?"
“Just eat it directly.”
Yao Chi let out a howl, her eyes suddenly widened, and she kept whimpering while pulling Hongmei's arm.
Hongmei and Jiangyue were startled, thinking that Yaochi had choked because she ate too quickly, and hurriedly patted her on the back.
The people in the kitchen were terrified, thinking that something had happened to the princess. Those who were quick to react rushed to find the imperial physician.
Yao Chi kept chewing it, unwilling to spit it out. After swallowing it, she said in surprise, "Sister, this strawberry is so delicious! I love the taste!"
Jiang Yue looked at her speechlessly, "You scared me to death, sister. I thought you were choking."
Yao Chi scratched his head embarrassedly, "Yes, I almost choked, but this is so delicious, the best fruit I have ever eaten!
Oops! Why did you cut it off? The green leaves are delicious too, what a waste.
Yao Chi picked up the strawberry leaves that fell on the chopping board with heartache. Jiang Yue was speechless again. This is a strawberry butt!
Although this variety of strawberry has only a small butt, it has strawberry flesh. Do you still need to eat the butt?
"These are leaves, they're inedible. Didn't you pluck off the ones you just ate?"
Yao Chi covered her mouth and said in horror, "Is this leaf poisonous? I just ate the whole thing!"
Jiang Yue was almost laughing to death, but she was afraid that Yao Chi would feel embarrassed if she laughed, so she had a hard time holding it in.
"It's not poisonous. I don't even eat the leaves. It's okay to eat them. Since you like this strawberry so much, I'll go back to my room and get you some more."
"No, I'll just eat the one here." He picked up another strawberry, carefully removed the leaves, and ate it slowly and enjoyably.
Pointing at a mango, he asked, "What is this? It's yellow, I've never seen one before. Is it delicious?"
Jiang Yue cut the mango into small pieces and picked up a piece for Yao Chi with chopsticks.
"Hmm! It's so smooth and delicious! What is this?"
Jiang Yue wiped her hands and asked Xiao Zhu to pick out the mango flesh and put it on a plate according to her method.
“This is called Mango, and I bought it from a foreigner in the county.
We have mango trees in places like Yunnan and Daxia, but they're not this big." Yao Chi compared it with her hands, and it was bigger than her two palms.
"There's also this one called banana, and this one is dragon fruit, also a product of the south." Jiang Yue pointed at several fruits and introduced them to Yao Chi one by one.
Seeing the watermelon, Yao Chi spoke first, "I know this, it's called watermelon! I've eaten this before. Every summer, my father would give my mother a few to cool her down."
Yao Chi rolled up her sleeves and helped Xiao Zhu process the dragon fruit. She only dared to let her wash it, not cut it with a knife.
These fruits were kept in the freezer before being taken out, and they were cold to the touch.
The temperature outside is too high. Today, saltpeter is widely used to make ice, and the kitchen is hotter than outside.
So several large ice basins were placed in the kitchen to cool down the temperature. Jiang Yue put the cut fruits on a plate and placed them in the ice basins to keep them cool.
In the middle, I ran back to the room to get two Peking ducks and rolls, and gave the ancients a slice of roast duck! I brought a basket of strawberries to Yao Chi, and Yao Chi was so happy that she ate one after another.
Beijing roast duck is not comparable to those roast ducks bought in Kyoto. It is made with modern superb technology and paired with special secret ingredients, which is guaranteed to make people addicted!
Jiang Yue occupied a stove alone, slicing two roast ducks with skillful knife skills, separating the skin and meat from the bones.
Then let Xiaozhu sit behind the pot and light the fire, put the duck bones into the 60℃ oil pan and fry them, take them out, filter the oil and sprinkle with thirteen spices.
He picked one up with chopsticks, blew on it, and fed it to Yao Chi who was already impatient. As soon as he put it in his mouth, Yao Chi took it and started chewing it, even breaking the bones.
Then take out the ultimate weapon, a big bottle of yogurt!
When the time is almost up, put the fruits together and pour in the yogurt and stir.
Coat each piece of fruit with yogurt and place on four plates.
Hongmei and Xiaozhu each carried a plate of fruit, and the little palace maid followed Jiang Yue with two plates of roast duck and sauce.
Yao Chi personally delivered a plate to Emperor Mingde, and then asked for some good things for Jiang Yue.
There was still one plate left for the maids, who happily bowed to Jiang Yue.
The princesses really like this and will never forget them when there is anything delicious!
Emperor Mingde was meeting with his ministers in his study. The method of making ice had been discovered, and now it needed to be distributed so that the people could truly benefit from it.
Natural disasters are already so terrible. If the court does nothing, the people will really have no hope and there will definitely be a big chaos.
Now these ministers are also having a headache. Information is not flowing, and people from all over the country are migrating south.
Even if a notice is posted, no one will stop to read it.
Moreover, except for the ones in the east and south, most of the pharmacies were closed, and no one brought out large amounts of saltpeter.
Emperor Mingde had already sent several elite troops back to Kyoto and nearby cities at noon to collect saltpeter and distribute it to the people.
