My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts Chapter 570 - 192 Glass Steamed Dumplings3
Miao Miao’s girlish thoughts were all known to Du Xixi, and Miao Miao never kept anything from Du Xixi. So, although Miao Miao was quite embarrassed to speak up this ti, with her little eyes flickering, she still said it out loud.
"Of course, you can! But..." Du Xixi certainly wouldn’t refuse. After all, she was free anyway. Being able to teach Miao Miao so simple and delicious dishes was definitely sothing that Du Xixi found both entertaining and aningful. "Chen Yin brother? It seems like Your Majesty has been making quite a few moves on you recently."
She rembered a few days ago, Miao Miao used to call Chen Yin in a slightly distant way as "Your Majesty," but just after a few days apart, Miao Miao’s address for Chen Yin had changed to "Brother Chen Yin," which was an extrely close way of addressing!
Du Xixi didn’t need to guess to know that Chen Yin and Miao Miao must have interacted a lot during this period, which is why the relationship between the two had improved.
Miao Miao smiled bashfully again, the blush on her cheeks deepening. She lowered her head slightly, not daring to et Du Xixi’s teasing gaze. Seeing her like this, Du Xixi patted her head and no longer teased her, gobbling down so Sheng Jian Bao and found her appetite inexplicably improved today.
Du Xixi secretly clicked her tongue, thinking that her stomach was actually quite full, but her mouth was still a bit lonely and wanted to eat sothing else.
Maybe...
"Let’s go, let’s head to the kitchen." Once Du Xixi thought of sothing, she would just do it. She stood up and pulled Miao Miao towards the kitchen. Miao Miao was stunned for a mont, being dragged inside, and quickly said, "Now? You just finished breakfast, don’t you want to rest for a bit?"
"No need! I’m just taking this ti to digest a bit." Du Xixi’s plan was exactly this. She wanted to eat sothing more, but the fullness in her stomach wouldn’t allow her to eat more just yet. In the anti, she started teaching Miao Miao to make breakfast, thinking that by the ti the food was ready, her stomach would have digested a bit, allowing her to eat so more.
Du Xixi only ntioned the first half of her reason, so Miao Miao rely thought Du Xixi had eaten too much and needed to make so food to help digest quickly, so she didn’t stop her.
Not knowing that Du Xixi was actually planning to continue eating later, Miao Miao brought Du Xixi an apron and helped her with the apron strings, while the strings on Miao Miao’s back were tied by 2569.
"Thank you, Miao Miao." Du Xixi could tie the apron strings herself, but since Miao Miao helped, she was happy to take a short break. After Miao Miao returned a smile, she pulled Miao Miao to the sink to wash their hands.
The gentle clear water washed over Du Xixi and Miao Miao’s fingers. The water wasn’t too cold or too hot, just the right temperature to feel comfortable, but after washing clean, they quickly turned off the water.
Yes, they were both a bit impatient.
"There are many types of breakfast, it can be porridge, or dumplings, but I rember brother used to quite like shao mai, so today I’ll teach you how to make shao mai." Du Xixi explained softly to Miao Miao while asking Miao Miao and 2569 to help retrieve a bag of flour from the cupboard.
This was specially delivered by Rob following Chen Yin’s orders. It was high-quality flour, ground from top-grade wheat, and exceptionally fragrant when eaten. Good shao mai are made with top-quality flour, this is what makes them really good.
Shao mai is also called glass shao mai, its skin is thin but the filling is abundant. After steaming, the skin is soaked with the juices of the inner filling, turning semi-transparent, and through the outer skin, the filling inside can be seen, hence called glass shao mai.
On Blue Star, many breakfast shops, in order to reduce production costs and increase satiety, often use glutinous rice and a few shredded ats instead of the traditional cabbage and pork filling. The first ti Chen Yin ate shao mai was from an ordinary breakfast shop he happened upon by chance.
At that ti, Chen Yin only ate them once and felt that this breakfast called "shao mai" was really delicious. Taking advantage of his big appetite, he bought a dozen or so to eat at ho in a row, ending up so full he collapsed on the sofa, practically a "corpse lying flat."
It was the young Du Xixi who couldn’t stand it at the ti, gave him indigestion tablets, and personally made authentic glass shao mai for him, making him once again marvel.
Whether it’s the traditional glass shao mai, or the glutinous rice version of glass shao mai sold by shops later, both are actually quite delicious. Yet after learning many ancient culinary ways, Du Xixi privately hoped even more to spread the traditional ancient recipes passed down.
Thinking of past events, Du Xixi’s mood improved further. While asking Miao Miao to learn her thod to begin kneading the dough, she softly said, "We need to adjust the flour and water into a slightly harder dough, so the shao mai made will have more shape and won’t be too soft."
Water dough is not difficult, rolling the small portions of dough divided from the water dough into skins isn’t hard either. Even the following task of stacking the skins together and using the end of a rolling pin to pound out the lotus leaf-shaped "frills" was not too difficult for Miao Miao.
She often followed by Du Xixi’s side before, watching Du Xixi make various foods, also having plenty of opportunities to try it herself. So now, step by step learning from Du Xixi, she did it quite well, showing real talent.
Du Xixi watched the "frills" she pounded out, nodded in satisfaction, thinking that whenever she had the ti, she’d teach her more culinary skills. Such talent shouldn’t be wasted.
