Yuan Tiantian took Xiaojiu and Ling downstairs and saw that the vegetables were almost processed.
They still had to go to the town today. All the meat they bought yesterday had been used up. There were still some shellfish left among the seafood. Yuan Tiantian had already put them in water to keep them alive and planned to use them all up today.
When they got back, the employees who came to harvest the vegetables had already left. Yuan Tiantian put the things in the kitchen and then took out the recipe she had drawn last night.
Then, she took out a single peach blossom - yes, just one.
Yuan Tiantian had done her homework according to the information in the recipe.
After taking out the peach blossom, she carefully rinsed it with clean water without damaging the petals. Then she put the peach blossom in a container and steamed it over boiling water for a quarter of an hour.
Yuan Tiantian followed all the steps as described in the recipe.
During this quarter of an hour, Yuan Tiantian went to prepare some other dishes for today. But after just three minutes, she smelled the strong fragrance of peach blossoms. She couldn't help turning to look at the steamer. The smell emitted by the steamed peach blossom was quite charming.
"It smells so good!"
Bai Ying and Sheng Jing, two big men, didn't have much of a reaction to the fragrance of the peach blossom. But Xiaojiu and Ling, being girls, just loved it.
The two girls ran into the kitchen, looked at the steamer, and let out sighs of enjoyment.
Yuan Tiantian couldn't help laughing. Sure enough, no matter in which world, girls had no resistance to nice - looking or good - smelling things.
"Auntie, I'll make some delicious cool cakes for you later!"
Hearing Yuan Tiantian's words, the two little girls clapped their hands happily. Then they held hands and walked back to the cashier in the dining area to play with building blocks. Lately, the two little sisters had been obsessed with building houses.
The quarter - of - an - hour passed quickly. Yuan Tiantian washed her hands and then took the steamer off the stove.
When she opened the lid, the already strong fragrance of peach blossoms became even more intense.
The peach blossom had withered and shriveled due to the steaming, but its original bright color didn't turn yellowish - brown. It just lost a bit of its luster.
Yuan Tiantian couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
As the recipe had said, there was indeed a lot of water from the peach blossom petals in the container.
Yes, a lot.
Since the recipe said there would be a large amount, Yuan Tiantian had deliberately chosen a large soup bowl. To her surprise, she had collected almost half a bowl of the water from the peach blossom petals.
It had to be said that this really went beyond the normal range. However, it was not impossible for items produced by the plane system.
After all, there were such heaven - defying ingredients as Cang Qing. How could this little peach blossom be an exception?
Yuan Tiantian used chopsticks to pick out the shriveled peach blossom petals onto a clean sieve with a small bowl placed underneath. She couldn't afford to miss even a drop of the water from the peach blossom petals. Moreover, the water - drained peach blossom petals would play an important role later.
From the soup bowl of water from the peach blossom petals, Yuan Tiantian took out two tablespoons and put them into a long glass bowl.
When the peach blossom petals had drained almost all the water, Yuan Tiantian added two petals, tore them into irregular pieces, and put them into the glass bowl as well. Then she prepared a small amount of jelly powder water, just a small half - bowl that could show the bottom of the bowl.
Then she started to pour the jelly powder water into the water from the peach blossom petals little by little, adding it in small amounts several times and quickly stirring the mixture.
After Yuan Tiantian had poured in all the jelly powder water, the water from the peach blossom petals in the glass bowl gradually took shape and finally solidified. It was a bit like the solid state of jelly, but the water from the peach blossom petals was more transparent and its color was the pink of peach blossoms.
The torn petals were also solidified inside, and it looked very nice just by looking at it.
The peach blossom cool cake was basically done at this point. However, to make it taste better, Yuan Tiantian put it in the refrigerator to chill for about 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, when Yuan Tiantian brought out the peach blossom cool cake, Xiaojiu and Ling were overjoyed.
"Auntie, it looks so nice!"
"Yes, it's so beautiful! I like it so much!"
Yuan Tiantian smiled at them and told them to come and eat quickly.
Sheng Jing naturally wouldn't eat the peach blossom cool cake, and surprisingly, Bai Ying didn't even make a fuss about wanting to eat it.
"It looks like something only you women would eat. I'm not going to eat it."
Yuan Tiantian: "..."
It was really rare that there was something Bai Ying didn't take a fancy to.
Yuan Tiantian didn't try to persuade him. Instead, she brought out three small plates and divided the cool cake among herself, Xiaojiu, and Ling. Of course, most of it went to the two little kids, and Yuan Tiantian only took a little bit to try.
When she took a bite, Yuan Tiantian's eyes widened in surprise.
She had originally thought that since the recipe didn't mention adding sugar or other seasonings, it would be tasteless, just like freshly - made jelly without any seasonings.
Unexpectedly, it had a faint sweet taste. Yuan Tiantian thought that it should be the natural sweetness of the water from the peach blossom petals.
It was really good.
Moreover, the Q - elastic texture of the cool cake was just like jelly, but it tasted better. After the Q - elastic chew, it seemed to melt in the mouth immediately, giving a feeling of a burst of water in the mouth.
"Is it delicious?"
Seeing that the two little girls were just burying their heads and eating without saying a word, Yuan Tiantian immediately teased them.
"Um! Um! Um!"
Hearing Yuan Tiantian's words, the two girls immediately looked up, nodded their heads vigorously at Yuan Tiantian in unison, and then continued to finish the remaining peach blossom cool cake on their plates.
Yuan Tiantian looked at them with a smile. In less than two minutes, the two little gluttons had finished the large portion of the peach blossom cool cake on their plates.
After finishing, they still seemed to be unsatisfied and licked their lips.
"Auntie, will there be more later?"
Xiaojiu, this cute little girl, obviously really liked it. She was already looking forward to the next serving just after finishing this one. Although Ling didn't say anything, her expectant look at Yuan Tiantian said it all. She also wanted to eat more!
Well, these two little gluttons were really craving the peach blossom cool cake.
"Yes, auntie will make more for you later!"
Yuan Tiantian said with a smile as she stroked the two girls' fair and tender little cheeks. Then she took the used tableware back to the kitchen, simply washed them, and then took out two larger glass bowls, planning to make all the remaining peach blossom cool cake.
Part of it would be for Xiaojiu and Ling as a delicious snack, and part of it would be a special dessert for women in the store.
Because the recipe said that the peach blossom cool cake was very good for women's internal conditioning and had a significant effect in removing yellowish skin tone and freckles.
Yuan Tiantian naturally believed this without a doubt. She was now a die - hard fan of the plane system. She believed whatever it said.
However, since the quantity was limited at present and there were only a few peach blossoms left, she estimated that she could only make about ten bowls. Distributed to specific individuals, it could probably only be provided to about thirty or forty people.
So, Yuan Tiantian came up with a plan.
Those who spent over 666 would be given a serving.
It was only for women!
