2622 Yellow pea cake
The fragrance assailed the nostrils. Unlike the sweet, moist sweetness, this crunchy fragrance was more light and refreshing, making people feel very relaxed unconsciously.
"Ka Cha!"
With a raise of his hand and a fall of the knife, the Overlord pastry was cut into a few pieces. They were almost the same size, but there were still some differences. Some had more sesame seeds, while others had a little more protruding. Of course, this was definitely a test of eyesight.
After distributing the biscuits, Tang Xi took advantage of her geographical advantage and snatched a piece that she felt was the most cost-effective and stuffed it into her mouth.
The other people's hands were a little further away, so they were a step slower than Tang Xi. However, this was also the time for them to show their abilities. In short, they could choose the longer hands first, then they could only choose the shorter hands later.
On the other hand, Lilian's arm was a little worse. Even if she wasn't using chopsticks, it felt like her hand was shorter than others. She was the last one to get the cake. After she got the cake first, she looked at her well-toned arms in confusion, then at man man's and the others 'arms. They had all been eating for 20 to 30 years, so why was there a difference when it came to using them?
Without thinking much, Lilian stuffed the shortbread into her mouth first. Like the sweet ones before, the outer layer was crunchy, almost to the point of melting. With a simple bite, the shortbread almost broke with a crisp sound.
The inner layer was not as thick and sweet as the sweet one because the stuffing was also added. However, the moist feeling could not be faked. It was probably because it was only slightly moist that it was more tough.
When he bit into it, it made a creaking sound. The faint fragrance of wheat mixed with the light salty taste was very delicious. At the end, he could even feel a little bit of the spicy aftertaste, which perfectly complemented the salty taste before and made it even more wonderful.
Lilian thought that she had always loved the sweet and soft texture of cakes and rarely ate salty or other flavors. However, the salty Overlord cake today gave her a whole new taste.
It turned out that even if it wasn't soft and sweet, desserts could still be so delicious. She must have been ignorant in the past.
Just when man man and the other women were enjoying the Overlord pastry, Zhou Shijie and the others didn't target the Overlord pastry in advance.
To be precise, head chef du first stared at the light yellow yellow yellow yellow yellow pea cake that exuded a rich bean fragrance. Like the other pastries, there was only one piece of yellow pea cake.
Unlike the ordinary yellow pea cake, which only had two fingers, this yellow pea cake could be said to be a giant yellow pea cake. It was the size of a palm and had a rare shape, but it couldn't hide the sweet fragrance of the yellow pea cake.
The round shape was rare in yellow pea cake, but it looked very ordinary among the desserts on the plate. Several of them were similar in shape.
Head chef du had his eyes on yellow pea cake mainly because he had just returned from the capital the day before yesterday. He happened to visit a pastry chef with a friend who had his ancestor make desserts in the Qing Palace. At that time, he had tasted the famous yellow pea cake in the Qing Palace.
Sometimes, a snack was so popular and famous not only because of its delicious taste, but also because of the effect of a famous person. Yellow pea cake was so famous because Cixi liked it very much.
As a Top Chef of Lu cuisine, although head chef du was not as good as Zhou Shijie, his status in Lu cuisine was still very important. He had eaten countless yellow pea cakes. The yellow pea cake he had eaten at the descendant of the Imperial chef in the capital a few days ago still gave him a refreshing feeling.
No matter if it was the material selection or the cooking technique, it was really not something that an ordinary chef could do. Let alone making it, sometimes it was even beyond one's imagination.
Naturally, the yellow pea cake made by Yuan Zhou was even more unique. Therefore, head chef du had his eyes on the relatively ordinary yellow pea cake among the colorful pastries.
He had originally thought that the yellow pea cake cooked by the royal chef was already the best. But now that Yuan Zhou had also cooked it, he became very curious about the taste of the yellow pea cake cooked by Yuan Zhou.
Since head chef du wanted to eat the yellow pea cake first, Zhou Shijie and the others followed his advice and chose the yellow pea cake. Other than Yu daoyi, almost everyone present was a master of desserts. Therefore, unlike Tang Xi, who only had a relatively delicate bamboo knife, Zhou Shijie and the others took out exquisite small knives. They were as wide as a finger and as long as a palm. Even though they were pocket-sized, they were not easily overlooked. There were bamboo knives, wooden knives, and even shiny golden knives. The silver knife was naturally a must.
Everyone had a knife. At this time, it depended on who was faster. Whoever moved faster would make the first move. There was no need to compete. In the end, head chef DU's extraordinary performance won the first place.
He brought a crystal knife with him. It was in the shape of a small transparent knife from head to toe. It was not only exquisite but also different from ordinary knives and taste-free chopsticks. The miracle kitchen knife had the characteristic of not easily being contaminated with the taste of other ingredients.
The smallest knife in head chef DU's Crystal Series was usually carried with him. For a chef, it was very common to carry a knife with him.
It was finally put to use. Not only did the yellow pea cake look clear, but it was also extremely smooth when cut. It looked like it was cut open as if it was a melon or a vegetable with just a light touch of the knife. Although the knife was sharp, the yellow pea cake was also smooth.
The yellow pea cake barely made any sound as it touched the bottom of the plate. With head chef DU's cooking skills, it was natural for him to divide the pieces into equal weights. As a result, the shapes were not uniform. After all, if a round piece wanted to be of equal weight, it would naturally not be of equal shape.
"Old Daoist Yu, you eat this piece. It's in line with your aesthetic taste." Zhou Shijie pointed at the middle of the square and said.
Unlike the other strange-looking pieces, the one Zhou Shijie pointed out was the best looking one. While speaking, he snatched that piece from under Wang Huai's chopsticks and placed it on the plate in front of Yu daoyi.
Yu daoyi had originally intended to snatch it himself, but he was frightened by Zhou Shijie's actions. To be so unaccountably solicitous, one must be up to no good.
"Could it be that he wants to use a piece of cake to exchange for my share of all the cakes in the future?" Yu daoyi was very vigilant.
It wasn't strange for Yu daoyi to think this way. One must know that when he had a meal with Zhou Shijie previously, he was still too young and thought that old friends were old friends. He didn't expect that they could become bad friends.
Hence, it was also an expensive price to pay for recognizing Zhou Shijie's cunning side with a plate of vegetarian chicken. At that time, Zhou Shijie was also very friendly and gave him some food with his chopsticks. When he lowered his head to eat, the entire dish was poured into Zhou Shijie's bowl. Then, there was no more and then.
Yu daoyi didn't touch the pastry. Instead, he said with a serious expression,""If there's something, say it. You won't want me to give you all the snacks after this."
Zhou Shijie couldn't help rolling his eyes and said,""I've always relied on my own ability to eat. There's no need to give in. As long as you can snatch it, it's yours. I just want to ask, is the elegant and dignified niece you mentioned who graduated from Qing University still single? what do you think of our Zhou Xi?"
This was the real reason why Zhou Shijie wanted to have a meal with Yu daoyi. Previously, he had heard Yu daoyi mention it when they were chatting. At that time, he didn't take it to heart. But now, he had to take it to heart.
