Mind reading, taking the rental house through the whole village crying

Chapter 379 Chestnut Shortbread

"Chestnut shortbread? My dear granddaughter, have you come up with a new food? Grandpa must be the first to try it." Jiang Shoujia touched his granddaughter's head and said with a smile.

"Okay! I'll do it now. Just wait for me, Grandpa." Jiang Fubao rubbed his hands.

I couldn't wait to go to the kitchen.

When passing by the second courtyard, she called Xue Huan who was sweeping the floor.

Xiaohua, who was dozing off on the ground, followed, shaking her chubby body.

Jiang Fubao doesn't like people to be in the kitchen when he cooks.

But today's main ingredient is chestnuts, so there was a row of people sitting outside the kitchen.

There are servants and maids.

There was a plate of chestnuts in front of everyone, and they were peeling the shells.

Jiang Fubao was kneading dough in the kitchen.

Only one-fifth of the chestnuts in the bamboo basket were used.

It's too much.

You can’t finish it in one day.

After Jiang Fubao prepared the pastry, the chestnuts were also peeled.

She took out half and put it aside, preparing to use it when making chestnut braised chicken and duck later. After cooking the other half, she pounded it into small pieces, mixed it with sugar and oil, and rolled it into small balls.

"Xue Huan, go to the courtyard and pick two red flowers." The noodles had been left for quarters of an hour. Jiang Fubao rolled up his sleeves and said to Xue Huan.

Xue Huan didn't know what the cooking was for.

But she did whatever the lady asked her to do.

After answering, Xue Huan ran out of the kitchen.

After she left, Jiang Fubao was the only one in the kitchen.

The servants outside didn't dare to come in.

So Jiang Fubao started making chestnut biscuits.

Just now, when no one was paying attention, she added milk to the dough.

So the dough looks whiter.

Spread a layer of pastry, roll up the dough and flatten it again, repeat three times. This way the fried chestnut pastry will be crispy and crumbly.

The round chestnut fillings are wrapped into the dough and finally pressed into a round cake shape.

At this time, Xue Huan came back with red flowers.

Jiang Fubao asked her to wash it and pound it to get the juice.

Then he used a clean brush, dipped it in juice, and wrote the word "Jiang" on the round cake.

Once all the round cakes have words written on them, you can fry them.

Jiang Fubao called the maids in, and each of them took a pair of chopsticks and flipped the chestnut cakes.

"Remember to brush oil on both sides. When it's golden brown, you can take it out and put it on a plate."

She is not needed in the final process.

After saying that, Jiang Fubao washed his hands with soap and sat outside the kitchen.

Prepare to take a break.

She prepared dinner herself.

I still have to be busy later.

"Aunt, An An finally found you, why are you here, um, it smells so good, what delicious food is Aunt making? An An wants to eat too."

Not long after I sat down, An An came running over, shaking her fat butt.

Jiang Fubao opened her arms and An An rushed into her arms.

He almost knocked her over along with the chair.

Jiang Fubao's mouth twitched.

Why did she feel that her nephew seemed to have gained some weight? Was it an illusion?

"Aunt is making chestnut cakes. They will be ready when grandpa finishes eating them. I'll give them to An An." Jiang Fubao is a good boy who keeps his promise. Since he has promised his grandfather, the first piece of chestnut cake must be tasted by his grandfather.

"Miss, two plates have been fried." The maid shouted in the kitchen.

"Okay, Xuehuan, go to the entrance of the yard and call my grandfather." Jiang Fubao turned his head and instructed Xuehuan.

"Okay, miss, Xuehuan will go right away." Xuehuan's purring voice was particularly loud.

She lifted her skirts and ran toward the arched door.

The two little beads on the head were bouncing back and forth.

When she came back, Jiang Shoujia followed her.

"Grandpa, the chestnut biscuits are ready. Please try them and see if they are delicious." Jiang Fubao stood up, brought a plate from the kitchen, picked up a piece of hot chestnut biscuit and handed it to his grandfather.

“Okay, okay, grandpa will try it now.” Jiang Shoujia took it with a smile and took a big bite. The crispy dough fell down with a clatter.

Like pancake rain down there.

Pour it on Xiaohua’s head.

Like snowflakes.

Half of the small piece of chestnut biscuit was gone in an instant.

"Wow, it's delicious. How can it be so delicious? Fubao is so amazing. You made ordinary chestnuts so delicious. You are worthy of being grandpa's granddaughter. You are amazing."

Jiang Shoujia's eyes lit up.

Exclaimed.

He had never eaten such delicious cakes.

In the past, the ones I bought from the store were either too sweet and sickly, or too dry and choking.

But the chestnut cakes made by my granddaughter smell so delicious that I drool.

When you take a bite, the outside is crispy and the chestnut filling inside is soft and sticky.

There is actually a milky aroma.

He couldn't bear to swallow it even if he bit it into pieces.

If you sell this kind of thing in a store, customers will definitely fight over it.

Jiang Shoujia quickly stuffed the other half of the chestnut biscuit in his hand into his mouth.

There are more snowflakes on Xiaohua's head.

"An An wants to eat too, An An wants to eat too, Aunt, my good aunt, An An wants to eat too." An An's saliva was dripping onto the ground.

He was so anxious that he jumped up and down.

He shouted and swallowed his saliva.

"Okay, okay, the second piece is for An An." Jiang Fubao smiled dotingly.

He picked up a piece of not-too-hot chestnut biscuit and handed it to his nephew.

An An quickly took a big bite, but his mouth was not big.

No matter how hard you bite, the chestnut biscuit only loses one-fifth of its size.

"It's delicious, so delicious, auntie is awesome, An An likes to eat this." An An's eyes also lit up.

He shook his head and praised Jiang Fubao.

"Xue Huan, try one piece too." Jiang Fubao handed the third piece to her personal maid Xue Huan.

She saw the little girl busying around.

As for herself.

This is the fourth piece I ate.

The chestnut filling is soft and sticky, not dry at all, and much more delicious than the chestnut cakes sold in the original world.

Then it’s not called chestnut cake.

The filling is mostly made of mung beans, with chestnuts accounting for about 30%.

I took a bite and almost choked because it was too milky.

Nothing like this pure chestnut filling, it’s so fragrant.

There are only ten chestnut biscuits in a plate.

After a while, they finished eating.

An An still wanted it, but was rejected by Jiang Fubao.

"An An is so full in the afternoon that he won't be able to eat at night. We have chicken and duck for dinner! My aunt cooked it herself and it tastes better than this. Don't you want to eat it, An An?" Jiang Fubao tempted him with delicious food.

An An had no choice but to give up.

Wait until all the chestnut shortbreads are fried.

It was already half an hour later.

Jiang Fubao generously gave one piece to each of the maids and servants.

The remaining half is left for the family to eat when they come back.

She divided the other half into more than a dozen portions and gave them away.

It was not only given to my uncle, Mingxue's family, and my second sister-in-law's family.

It was also given to regular customers of the shop.

Just now, she had an idea. The shop hadn't had any new products for a long time. The new products made by her mother and grandmother in the past two years didn't make much of a splash. They sold mediocrely and made little profit, so she simply took them off the shelves.

For example, mung bean cake and meat noodles.

If you put chestnut shortbread on the shelf.

Should be able to make some money again.

When the new product is launched, regular customers who have tried her chestnut shortbread will definitely like it and will come to support her.
