NOVEL NEXT Chapter 170 Black Plum Tomatoes
When Ma Boluo was looking through the food menu, he saw the curry shrimp and asked: "Miss Ah Miao, it seems that you have prepared Tianzhu's curry powder?"
Mao Xi was very grateful for the curry powder Mabolo gave her last time, but since some spices were hard to find in Da Huai, she could only buy ready-made ones.
"Curry powder was brought back from the ocean by Captain Li, and I just used ready-made curry powder to make curry sauce."
Mabolo missed the smell of curry very much, so he ordered a curry shrimp to eat.
Seeing that there was a serving of Longjing shrimp on the table, Ma Xi suggested, "Mr. Marble, how about a curry chicken nugget? The taste is not inferior to the curry shrimp."
Ma Boluo continued to drink and eat shrimp, waiting for his curry chicken nuggets.
Mao Xi had already taught Xiaoqing and Yaomei how to make curry sauce. She stood by the stove and guided how to prepare the meal.
When the curry chicken nuggets were served, the room was filled with curry spices, which brought the taste buds of maburo to the tropics.
Because the sauce and potatoes in the chicken curry were so delicious, Mabolo ordered a bowl of rice even though he had already had dinner.
The rice is made of jasmine rice, paired with South Asian-style curry sauce. The chicken pieces are tender and tender, and the sauce is fragrant. Before the chicken is finished, a large bowl of rice is already eaten.
Ma Boluo touched his swollen belly and complained that he was so greedy that he had eaten two dinners.
After eating, Ma Boluo and Nalan Jue left Liuxiang Snacks with satisfaction.
Seeing the two of them walking away, Lou Lan'er moved closer to Shu Xi and suggested: "Ah Shu, since Ma Bo Luo has returned to Lihua Town to help Mr. Nalan look at the coffee bean workshop, will he try to steal our coffee in the future?" Is it business?”
Mao Xi was the original roasting consultant for Nalanjue Coffee Workshop. She only received consulting money for three months. Later, because the new shop was busy, she resigned as a consultant.
It happened that Ma Boluo went to Beidu, so she introduced him to Nalan Jue as a coffee bean roasting consultant.
Although she lost a monetary income, Mao Xi was very grateful to Ma Boluo for giving her the food travel diary, which contained some folk snacks and desserts from Central Asia and Europe, which was of great help to his newly opened sugar water shop. help.
.
In the early morning, Mrs. Chen brought some fresh fruits and vegetables to Liuxiang Snacks. Among them was a vegetable that no one had ever seen before - cherry tomatoes.
Mrs. Chen told Ma Xi that these small tomatoes were brought to her by Mo Feng from the back mountain.
Tomatoes were first cultivated by Mao Xi, and have just become popular in Liujia Village and Lihua Town. Now there is a variety of small tomatoes, which has attracted a lot of attention.
Each small tomato is only slightly larger than a quail egg. Of course, Mao Xi wants to sell it as a fruit, so the unit price is also high.
She remembered the boxed ready-to-eat fruit she had eaten: "Black Plum Tomato", and started making it.
The homemade smoked plums had already been sold out before the winter last year, and the sour plum soup was sold out.
Grandpa Jiang's green plums are not yet ripe this year, so Mao Xi can only go to the mall to buy them, although they are more expensive than homemade ones.
"Ding~"
Mao Xi first took out a can of ebony plums from the kitchen and cut the flesh of the ebony plums with scissors.
Brother Ying thought that Miao Xi was going to make sour plum soup, so he came to help: "Sister Ah Miao, do you want to make sour plum soup?"
"No, Brother Ying, please help wash those small tomatoes, remove the stems, and cut them in half, but don't cut them off."
Although Brother Ying didn't know what kind of delicacy Miao Xi wanted to make, he followed Miao Xi's request and carefully cut it.
Mao Xi cut the plum meat into neat strips and put it in a bowl for later use.
After Brother Ying had cut all the tomatoes, Mao Xi stuffed the plum meat into the tomatoes.
In the process of making black plum tomatoes, Mao Xi unconsciously hummed the familiar song: "Your shallow smile is like black plum sauce..."
It's over. This song seemed to be welded in her head. Mao Xi subconsciously pressed the pause button on her brain several times, but as she started making this fruit dish, the song came out of her mouth inadvertently. .
"Ah Shu, are you making black plum jam?" Mu Zhiyuan asked after hearing the song that Shu Xi was humming.
At some point, he came to Mao Xi's side, took a prepared plum tomato and started eating it.
The small tomatoes are fresh and juicy, and the plum meat is sweet and dense, which neutralizes the acidity of the tomatoes. Two different tastes are intertwined in the mouth, sour with sweetness, and sweet with sweetness.
It has the juiciness and deliciousness of the fruit and the softness of the plum preserves.
Mu Zhiyuan couldn't help but reach out to the plum tomatoes again.
Mao Xi moved the basin away: "Brother Mu, don't eat any more. There are not many small tomatoes left."
Mu Zhiyuan couldn't hold back, grabbed two more and tasted them.
This taste makes me want to eat a second one after eating one.
Mao Xi took some and put them in a wooden food box, and asked Brother Ying to go to the alley to sell them in the afternoon to see if the people could accept this new delicacy.
"A portion of 12 pieces, you sell it for 8 cents."
In the afternoon, she took the remaining black plum tomatoes and went to Kaitang County with Mu Zhiyuan.
There wasn't much traffic in the candy shop, so it maintained normal business.
Mao Xi placed the fruit at the coffee table and asked Luda to sell it with the coffee.
Then, she took the time to look outside Mr. Sun's fruit cake shop on the East Stage.
Without the magic show performed by the Peach Fairy on the stage, Mr. Sun's shop became much deserted.
She has not seen Miss Zhou and Mr. Sun, so the sales volume of this fruit cake shop must not be very good, otherwise Mr. Sun would not join the Peach Fairy's "Cherry Worship Cult".
My own fruit cake shop, after all, still has a fixed order from Yuqingguan.
Moreover, I heard from my mother-in-law Chen that Chun’s mother’s “National Color Shop” has recently opened in Kaitang County.
Mother Chun sends her maid to order various fruits every day.
"I wonder if the Peony girl is in the Guose Pavilion or the Tianxiang Pavilion."
With doubts, she returned to the shop, asked Chen about the address of the national color shed, and went to sell it with a box of black plum tomatoes.
The National Color Pavilion is much more impressive than the Tianxiang Pavilion. It is three stories high. It is not difficult to imagine that Mother Chun was carried up to her thighs through Peony Girl.
The maid originally wanted to take Mao Xi to the shed to meet Chun's mother. Mao Xi said she still had something to do, so she left the fruits to the maid and said, "These fruits are new products from the shop: black plum tomatoes. There are not many. You can give them to Chun." Just mom and Miss Peony, thank you very much for taking care of the Liu family’s fruit cake business.”
The maid thanked Mao Xi and went in to find Mother Chun with the food box.
Mao Xi glanced into the shed from outside the door, and seemed to see the frustrated Sima Yuan and his second-generation playboy friends, drinking and talking poetry with the girl in the shed.
"Alas, he and Sister Zhemei are not the same kind of people after all."
Just as Mao Xi was about to go back to the shop, he met Miss Ranchen, the shopkeeper of the incense shop.
I saw her rushing towards the suburbs in a hurry.
"Girl Rancheng, where are you going?"
Ranchen saw that it was Mao Xi and pulled her without stopping: "Ah Mao, have you heard that the Tao Immortal is going to open an altar tonight and officially canonize ten major disciples, and I heard that he will also perform the Goddess Scattering Flowers Illusion!"
