Chapter 205: The more spices the spicier the dishes

Bai Zhi wiped the fine sweat on her forehead and said with a smile: “I still have two dishes to cook, watch me, then ask if you don’t understand.”

Bai Zhi thought, since she wanted to learn, she should see the basic method. With this, after seeing every move she does, she will naturally learn to cook other dishes fast.

It’s just, she didn’t expect that, even after finishing the other two dishes, Dong’er just kept covering her mouth and nose to the side. Why she didn’t get close to watch? Bai Zhi doesn’t know if she understood it.

Bai Zhi picked up the dish on the plate and brought it in front of Dong’er: “Do you want to try?”

Donger was a native of Qingyuan Town. She has a light diet since she was a child. When she saw the red hot and spicy soup, she didn’t dare to try it. She kept shaking her head: “No, no, no, Miss Bai, thank you, but I’m not used to it.” ”

Bai Zhi was dumbfounded. She doesn’t even want to try, how she will learn to cook spicy dishes She doesn’t know how they taste, how she will make delicious spicy dishes in the future?

She didn’t have a good look at this maidservant earlier, but now that she was in front of her. Although the maidservant was wearing simple clothes, her hair looked very delicate. Her clothes looked clean and neat. She also wears a few delicate hair ornaments. She kept covering her mouth and nose. It seems like she was extremely disgusted to the environment of the kitchen.

The cook on the side came over and brought the braised fish Bai Zhi had coo, then said with a smile: “Dong’er is the maidservant serving Miss Gu. The kitchen has always been a place like this, so she never steps foot here. But today, not only Dong’er came, but also stayed for a long time.”

The cook found it very interesting, but his words were much more interesting. In just a few sentences, Bai Zhi clearly understood it. She originally has a few sentences to say, but she just kept it inside her heart. She only smiled and asked: “Miss Dong’er, did you learn about it?”

Dong’er waved her hand: “What is so difficult about it? It’s simply the more spices you put, the spicier the dishes get.”

What she said is also true. To make the dishes spicier, it’s only natural to add more spices. But, a person needs to pay attention when adding more spices, because it might affect the taste.

Of course, an ordinary person doesn’t have much knowledge about this. And it is something cannot be learned after hearing a few sentences, especially to a person who knows nothing about cooking.

Bai Zhi is not stupid, naturally, she will not waste her saliva in this meaningless talk. “Since Miss Dong’er learned it, then I will leave.” The dishes were first sent to Meng Nan’s courtyard, while Bai Zhi went to wash her face and hair first to remove the scent of smoke on her body. At this time, she thought the range hood was such a great invention.

In modern times, even if you cook in the kitchen, your body will not have a scent of smoke, and your hair will not become greasy just by cooking a meal.

When the cook arrived at Meng Nan’s courtyard, he put the last dishes. At the same time, before he left, he swept his eyes to the other dishes on the table. Aside from the stir-fried vegetables, the other dishes were almost wiped out.

Together with the plate that he just placed on the table, there were a total of six dishes and a soup. These three people’s appetite was really big.

Meng Nan saw Hu Feng always placing some dishes in an empty plate. Every time he will eat a new dish, he will put some on it and not on his mouth.

“What will you with do these foods? If you don’t want to eat, just let me eat it.”Meng Nan said and stretched out his arm.

Hu Feng quickly swept his eyes to Meng Nan and coldly said:  “This is for Zhi’er.”

Jin Shiwei swallowed the tender meat of the fish in his mouth and nodded his head to Hu Feng: “Indeed, it is necessary to leave something for her to eat. She works so hard to cook these foods. We can’t just give her the leftover foods when she comes.”
