NOVEL NEXT Chapter 59
The little princess waved her hands and gestured, "It's so delicious~"
"Mother, this color and taste can't be made by the Shangshi Bureau. I've never seen it before." Li Lizhi pointed to the side of the bed and asked Yushu to put down the casserole.
After opening the lid, the unique aroma of scrambled eggs with tomatoes spread in the Lizheng Hall. Empress Changsun was also quite surprised. This smell really increased people's appetite.
Others around were swallowing their saliva subconsciously.
This smell is really too intoxicating.
It looks good and smells ridiculous.
"It smells so good!" Empress Changsun couldn't help but praise.
"Hmm, hmm~ It smells so good~"
"Sour and sweet, red~"
"Red?" As an old mother, Empress Changsun didn't understand.
"Hmm~" The little princess pointed to the inside of the casserole, "Red is red duck~"
Not to mention Li Lizhi, Empress Changsun didn't understand.
Empress Changsun asked patiently, "Sizi, speak slower, what is this?"
Empress Changsun pointed to the scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
"Yes! Hong! Yes!" The little princess said seriously, word by word.
"Mother knows, it will be cold in a while, Hongxiu will go get the bowls and chopsticks." Empress Changsun had no appetite, but the dish in front of her made even Empress Changsun a little impatient.
"Yes, Madam."
Hongxiu quickly brought the food.
"Sizi, have you eaten it before?" Li Lizhi remembered that the little princess had just said it was sour and sweet.
"Yes~" The little princess admitted it directly.
Li Lizhi saw Qinglan next to her, "When?"
"Ah? Your Highness, I don't know, this is the first time I've seen it." Qinglan was confused, not knowing when the little princess had eaten scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
"Sizi, when did you eat it?" Empress Changsun also wanted to know why Qinglan knew nothing.
"Wo Buji Island duck~"
Anyway, the little princess has learned to be smart now. If it is difficult to explain and there is no way to justify herself, just say that she doesn't know.
The little girl also discovered that this trick has been tried and tested.
Li Lizhi smiled and gave the chopsticks to Empress Changsun.
Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi both understood that the little princess must have eaten it, but where and how she ate it, no one else knew.
Whether the little princess knew it or not, Empress Changsun didn't know.
The matter in the inner palace was outrageous to begin with, so Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi didn't bother to worry about it.
"Mother, you try it."
Li Lizhi and the two little princesses didn't move, letting Empress Changsun come first.
"Okay!" Empress Changsun picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of tomato and put it in her mouth.
Empress Changsun's expression changed, showing a happy look, "It's sour and sweet, very refreshing and appetizing. I didn't expect eggs and this system..."
Empress Changsun didn't know what to say. The little princess was very serious, but Empress Changsun really didn't know what the little princess was talking about.
You can guess it by combining the context of what is said, but you can't guess it by just saying the name.
There is no such thing in the Tang Dynasty, so it must have never been seen before.
"Mother, it's red~"
"Red! Red!" The little princess taught it very seriously.
She looked cute and funny.
"Red?" Li Lizhi repeated it.
"No~ Sister~" The little princess corrected quickly, "Red!"
The little princess knew it was a tomato, and she said it was red, but others said it was red, and the little princess felt it was wrong.
It was really a bit difficult for Li Lizhi and Empress Changsun.
"Okay, okay, this is not important, it's really delicious." Empress Changsun quickly tried to smooth things over, "Sizi, Second Mother, try it quickly."
Li Lizhi picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece for Princess Chengyang.
Princess Chengyang had been greedy for a long time.
"Wow!" Princess Chengyang was shocked, this was a delicacy she had never tasted before.
"Second sister, is it a good duck~"
"Well, delicious, sour and sweet and fragrant!" Princess Chengyang took a bite and was still not satisfied.
"Second sister, you pick it up yourself." Li Lizhi gave the chopsticks to Princess Chengyang.
"Good!" Princess Chengyang couldn't wait to take the second bite.
But Princess Chengyang picked it up, not to eat it herself, but to feed the little princess next to her, "Sizi, you eat it too."
"Good~" The little princess did not refuse.
"It's really delicious!" Li Lizhi liked it very much at the first bite, and liked this taste too much.
"It's really good, I don't know how it's made, I never thought that eggs can be so delicious." Empress Changsun was really curious.
"Good~" The little princess ate with relish, with a satisfied look on her face.
"Mother, there are others." Li Lizhi opened the second casserole, which contained braised pork.
"This is also good~" The little princess also likes the taste of braised porkand taste.
"This meat looks good, but it's a little big... and a little fat." Li Lizhi doesn't like to eat too fat.
"Sister, fat is better~" The little princess accidentally revealed that she had eaten braised pork.
Li Lizhi and Empress Changsun looked at each other and understood each other's meaning.
The little princess has many secrets.
Now Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi believe in the mysterious existence in the inner hall.
There is no worry that these things will be poisonous or something.
Empress Changsun is now grateful for the mysterious existence in the inner hall.
Li Lizhi is not only grateful, but also a little more awed. After all, in Li Lizhi's heart, it is the supreme god, an existence beyond mortals.
"Aniang, try it." Empress Changsun picked up a smaller, less fatty piece.
Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi both don't like fatty things.
"Hmm..." Empress Changsun nodded in approval, "It's fat but not greasy, lean but not dry, and extremely soft and glutinous. Sizi is right, the fat ones are more fragrant."
Empress Changsun's throat was uncomfortable, but she could accept the feeling of eating this.
"Hmm~" Empress Changsun also agreed that the fat ones were delicious, which made the little princess very happy.
"Second sister, try it."
Li Lizhi looked at Princess Chengyang.
Although Princess Chengyang was greedy, she was not in a hurry.
"Good!"
Princess Chengyang picked up a piece and took a bite, "Sweet!"
"Sweet?" This was something Li Lizhi didn't expect.
"It's sweet and delicious. Sizi and Lizhi, you should try it too."
"Good!"
The little princess pointed, "I want seven fat ones~"
Li Lizhi picked up a piece and took a bite of the lean one, "Sizi, you eat it."
The little princess was very familiar with this process and couldn't help but think of Xiao Ran.
"What a strange way to cook it, it's actually sweet. I didn't expect it to be so delicious." Li Lizhi didn't like it when she first knew it was sweet.
There was no custom of adding sugar to dishes in this era.
There was no white sugar, let alone rock sugar, in the Tang Dynasty, only brown sugar.
The output of brown sugar was very low, and the process was immature. The few brown sugars were out of reach for ordinary people and were a luxury.
There must be some in the palace, but now brown sugar is a medicine. No one eats brown sugar, let alone cooks it.
Sugar was expensive in the Tang Dynasty!
"This cooking skill... is really amazing!" Empress Changsun admired sincerely.
