86 Monkey Head Mushroom Chicken Soup
Xiao Juan did not expect that the chefs of the Justice Department would not be able to make a few dishes.
He frowned and began to consider changing cooks.
Yu Niaoniao smiled. “It doesn’t matter if they don’t know how to do it. I’ll teach them.”
It just so happened that she was very curious about the dining hall of the Justice Department. This was a good opportunity to take a look.
Xiao Juan knew that she loved to cook, so he did not stop her and let her be.
The dining hall of the Justice Department was larger than she had expected.It was divided into two parts. The central room outside was filled with tables and chairs. It was a place to eat. Inside, it was a kitchen.
The kitchen was very well-equipped. There were pots and stoves, and there were various ingredients.
Yu Niaoniao put her hands behind her back and strolled around the kitchen.
A chef stood obediently at the side with his four disciples.
Probably because the food was good, the chef and his disciples were fair and fat.
Especially the chef. His bulging belly was about to burst his belt.
They knew that Yu Niaoniao was the future Princess Consort and did not dare to underestimate her at all.
Yu Niaoniao dug out a bag of fresh monkey head mushrooms from the corner.
Monkey head mushrooms can promote gastrointestinal digestion and are very good for nursing people with gastrointestinal disease.
She had an idea and immediately said to the fat chef.
“I don’t want the shrimp winter melon soup anymore. Change it to monkey head mushroom chicken soup.”
The fat chef asked carefully, “May I ask how we can make monkey head mushroom chicken soup?”
The monkey head mushrooms had been bought by the person in charge of the procurement. The fat chef had tried to make a stew with it, but the meat had an indescribable bitterness.
He had not touched the monkey head mushrooms since.
Originally, he had planned to throw away the monkey head mushrooms. He did not expect the future county princess to use them.
Yu Niaoniao said, “It’s simple. I’ll teach you.”
She soaked the mushrooms in salt water, then washed them.
When the fat chef saw her squeezing the monkey head mushroom hard and letting out some yellow water, he could not help but ask boldly.
“May I ask what you’re doing?”
Yu Niaoniao was very happy to exchange culinary skills with others, so she did not hide it.
“This is to remove the bitter taste of the monkey head mushrooms.”
The fat chef understood.
The reason why the stew was bitter was that this step was missing.
With this trick, the fat chef felt as if he had obtained a treasure.
Yu Niaoniao placed the entire chicken into the casserole and added the oysters and jujube, as well as the monkey head mushrooms that had been torn into small pieces. She added water to the pot and started cooking.
… .
Xiao Juan originally thought that Yu Niaoniao would return soon.
After all, she was the future Princess Consort. The chefs in the dining hall would not really let her cook.
She should just give them a few pointers.
Unexpectedly, she was gone for a long time.
Seeing that it was already noon and she was still nowhere to be seen, Xiao Juan could not sit still anymore.
He decided to check the kitchen himself.
When Xiao Juan walked near the kitchen, he saw many Eagle Guards gathered at the kitchen door. They all craned their necks to look into the kitchen and took deep breaths from time to time.
From the looks of it, they seemed to be quite absorbed, so much so that no one noticed that Prince Lang had come over.
It was not until they heard a low cough that everyone came back to their senses.
When they turned around and saw that it was Duke Lang, they were shocked and hurriedly cupped their fists.
“Greetings, Your Highness!”
Xiao Juan asked calmly, “Why are you all gathered here?”
Meng Xizhou scratched his head and said embarrassedly.
“We’re watching Miss Yu cook.”
Xiao Juan did not understand what was so good to watch about cooking.
When he walked into the kitchen, the rich smell of food hit him, making him stop.
He focused his gaze again and saw Yu Niaoniao standing beside the stove. Her sleeves were rolled up, revealing a slender white arm. She was nimbly stir-frying with a spatula. Her originally fair and tender face was flushed red from the heat. A little sweat seeped out of the tip of her nose. Her lips had turned red and moist from something she had just eaten, making her look exceptionally attractive.
Xiao Juan immediately understood what the brats were looking at.
He turned around and looked at the group of Eagle Guards outside the door with a dark expression. His thin lips parted slightly and he spat out a word coldly.
“Get lost!”
