Food: I Am A Cartoonist In Totsuki

Chapter 259: Pudding

Among the four contestants, Huang Yehong took the lead in completing his cooking.

I saw him raising his right hand and shouting loudly: “Chef Long, my cooking is finished.”

Seeing this, Zhu Yuan came to the sedan chair of the Western Heavenly Queen and asked respectfully, “The Queen Mother, can I taste the food now?”

“Well, when it’s done, send it over.

After getting the permission of the Queen Mother of the West, Zhu Yuan turned to face the yellow leaves on the beacon tower opposite, and said, “Bring the dishes over to the Queen Mother to taste.”

“Yes!”

Soon, Huang Yehong came to the beacon tower where the Western Heavenly Queen was with a plate of food alone.

Huang Yehong only cooked one dish this time, and he still covered it with a lid, so everyone didn’t know what he was cooking for a while.

“Chief Huang, what kind of food are you cooking?” Zhu Yuan asked.

It is necessary to know what this does before serving it to the Western Queen.

If you only cook very common and common dishes, there is no need to try them at all.

Because the theme of this request is to make dishes that the Queen Mother has never tasted.

Hearing Zhu Yuan’s question, Huang Yehong raised a confident smile on his face and said, “This dish I made is a very popular dish abroad in recent years, and I believe the Queen Mother West will definitely like it.”

Saying that, Huang Yehong opened the lid covering the cooking: “Please see, this is it!”

Zhu Yuan and Liu Yi immediately turned their attention to the cooking in Huang Yehong’s hands, and saw that in the middle of a white dinner plate, there was a piece of cake with a round overall shape and several different colors (Zhu Yuan et al. human eyes) food.

In addition to several different colors, this cake-like food is also very shiny on the surface. It is still shaking during the process of Huang Yehong’s delivery, just like soft tofu.

“This dish is~~?”

Rao is that Zhu Yuan has never seen such a novel dish.

Huang Yehong’s face became even more proud, and he couldn’t help but say: “I also said just now that this is a foreign delicacy, and its name is pudding’.”

“pudding?”

When he heard that Huang Yehong’s dish was pudding, Tong Yu, who was finishing the “Three Treasures” in front of the beacon tower, was also taken aback.

The same goes for the other six hardcore fans.

“pudding?”

“I didn’t expect him to make this dish!”

“Did China not introduce pudding as an ingredient during this period?” Chuang Zhi murmured while touching his beardless chin.

Yukihira Sōma and others don’t know much about China’s history and culture, especially the food culture, and only Nakiri Erina knows some fur.

“Oh, it’s actually a pudding, this really surprised me.” Tong Yu said with a smile.

Pudding is not a local dish in China, it comes from far abroad. As a fashionable and popular western delicacy, many people tried it out of freshness at first, but later they were fascinated by its deliciousness.

There is no exact information on when the pudding was introduced to China, but the Qing Dynasty implemented a policy of seclusion and isolation, and not many people know about this kind of thing.

Therefore, even these dragon chefs, as well as the Queen Mother, who has eaten all over China, said they heard about this dish for the first time.

The characteristic of pudding is that it looks as soft as tofu, a bit similar to jelly. It not only tastes very attractive, but also has a cute shape that is very attractive to girls.

In fact, pudding is a traditional British food. It evolved from the “cloth” used in ancient times to denote sausages laced with blood.

Today’s pudding made of eggs, flour and milk was handed down by the Saxons at that time.

Medieval monasteries called “the mixture of fruit and oatmeal” “pudding”. The official appearance of this pudding was in the 16th century Elizabeth I, and it was made with gravy, juice, dried fruit and flour.

Pudding in the 17th and 18th centuries was made with eggs, milk and flour.

Today’s pudding made by yellow leaves, the main ingredients are made of flour, milk, eggs, fruits, etc., which is close to the practice of pudding in the 21st world.

At the same time, in order to beautify the dish, he also decorated the pudding with yellow lemon wedges, small cherries and other fruits.

The Queen Mother West was also aroused, and Zhu Yuan said to him, “Is it a foreign food? Then Aijia must taste it and present it.”

The Queen Mother’s voice came from inside the sedan chair.

Zhu Yuan did not dare to neglect after hearing this, and immediately took the pudding from Huang Yehong’s hand, then turned around and presented it to the Queen Mother’s sedan chair.

Afterwards, a maid next to the sedan chair will deliver the pudding into the hands of the Empress of the West in the sedan chair.

Even if you want to taste the food now, the Queen of the West will never show her face to others easily, and she will taste it in a sedan chair.

Through a layer of gauze on the sedan chair, only a rough outline of the black shadow of the Queen Mother can be seen.

There are not many people in the world who have seen the true appearance of the Queen of the West. Among the chefs Long, there are only Zhu Yuan and a few chefs, then the emperor and the ministers, as well as a few palace maids who serve the Queen of the West day and night.

The west lady added a sense of mystery.

Xitian held a small plate, scooped up the Q-bomb pudding with a spoon and put it into her mouth. After eating it, her face showed a hint of surprise (to Zhao Zhao).

Only through the veil of the sedan chair, no one saw her change in expression.

“It’s really a taste I haven’t tasted before. This pudding dish is smooth, sour and sweet, and it tastes pleasant. It’s really suitable for dessert after a meal.”

When the Queen Mother said these words, she was obviously quite satisfied with this dish, which made Huang Yehong secretly overjoyed and flattered immediately.

The Queen Mother of the West “likes this dish, it is the honor of Xiaomin.

After the Western Queen Mother finished tasting, she asked the maid to take the leftover plates out of the sedan chair.

It can be seen that the Queen Mother eats only one third of the whole pudding, which is enough to show that this dish is very successful.

At least Huang Yehong thinks so.
