Chapter 25: Chapter 23, Remarkable Culinary Skills l
Translator: 549690339
In the kitchen, everyone was skeptical about the dadao soup Daohua was making; they even felt sympathy for County Magistrate Yan who would have to drink it.
When other girls wanted to show filial piety, who wouldn’t sincerely make a couple of dishes? Even if they didn’t make a main course, they should at least prepare a couple of desserts.
They had never seen anyone as perfunctory as the eldest girl!
However, as the water kept boiling, the soup started to turn milky white and gradually thickened, emitting a faint, natural grain aroma.
Daohua sprinkled some salt, added some chopped green onions, then drizzled a few drops of sesame oil, indicating that the dadao soup was ready.
From the time she entered the kitchen until the dadao soup was ready, it took less than fifteen minutes in total.
Simple, fast!
“Let’s go, take it to daddy.”
Daohua ordered Ping Tong to carry the dadao soup, then couldn’t wait to head towards the front courtyard of the County Governor’s Office.
As soon as they left, the kitchen was filled with the sound of saliva swallowing.
“I didn’t expect the dadao soup to be made so aromatic!”
Nanny Ren looked at the soup pot several times, and it took her a while to force herself to turn away, swallowing hard, and gesturing for the maids to take the pot away to be washed.
“Nanny Ren, we also saw how the eldest girl made the dadao soup just now, why don’t we give it a try?”
The white flour brought by the eldest girl was used up, but there was still some in the kitchen.
Nanny Ren also wanted to taste it very much, so she nodded, “Alright, let’s try it. If it tastes good, we can add another soup dish in the future.”
The people in the kitchen got busy.
Some time later.
Looking at the dadao soup in the pot, they all exchanged glances.
“That’s right, the eldest girl did it just like this, why is there such a big difference?”
The dadao soup made by the eldest girl, the aroma could be smelled from far away;
The one they made… couldn’t be said to be bad, just very ordinary, totally lacking that tempting, mouthwatering aroma.
Nanny Ren: “I had heard Old Madam praising the eldest girl’s cooking skills before, and I thought it was an exaggeration, but now I see it’s really the case!” She knew more about the goings-on in the kitchen than others.
I understand, the simpler the thing, the more it tests a person’s cooking skills.
Meanwhile, in the front courtyard of the Governor’s Office, County Magistrate Yan, who had been busy all morning, was discussing the resettlement problem of the refugees with the assistant magistrate, officials, and secretaries, when suddenly a faint aroma wafted over.
“How fragrant, what is that?”
Assistant Magistrate Xu stretched his neck to look towards the door.
County Magistrate Yan also looked over, his eyes sparkling with anticipation.
This aroma, he remembered it.
It was the same scent from the dadao soup his eldest daughter had made the day his second and third child returned.
The others in the room were also full of curiosity.
Taking advantage of his relationship with County Magistrate Yan, Secretary Lin said with a smile, “This early in the morning, Madam is sending food for your lordship. I wonder what delicious thing she made that smells so good?”
County Magistrate Yan smiled, “Just in time, I am also hungry.” With that, he waved someone over, “Go, have the meals brought here.” After saying this, he looked at Assistant Magistrate Xu and the others with a smile, “In a moment, we’ll all eat together.”
Assistant Magistrate Xu and the others nodded with smiles.
Normally, they would definitely not behave like this, but today, that aroma was just too tempting, so they shamelessly decided to stay.
Even the aloof and proud Secretary Xiao remained seated without moving.
The allure of delicious food was evident.
