bitter?

Shaoyao's face changed slightly, and she immediately poured a new bowl to taste.

The fresh flavor that melts into your mouth is mixed with a bit of bitterness, which makes the whole soup taste great.

She was frightened at first, but then remained calm.

This bitter taste can be completely ignored.

He is no longer a child, so can he still endure hardships?

She pursed her lips and was quite unconvinced: "It's not very bitter when I drink it. Please help me taste it."

Everyone still felt embarrassed. After hearing this, they immediately started to serve the soup. What was originally a controversial taste became a rush to put it away at this moment.

It was just that some people tasted it, showed a little displeasure, and observed other people's expressions.

Those who felt it was painful remained silent, while the older ones shook their heads and did not taste the difference at all.

“It’s not bitter, it tastes good!!”

Shaoyao relaxed and said to Jiang Muchen:

"My lord, you see, you are the only one complaining about the bitterness. I think it may be a matter of taste."

Jiang Muchen was not very happy. This group of people made him seem very hypocritical.

He motioned for An Yao to try it.

An Yao took a careful sip with a spoon. Although the fish soup was fresh, it had a slightly bitter taste.

It's not particularly heavy, but it has affected the taste.

If this were her student, she would definitely criticize him.

Her eyes dimmed slightly, she wiped her mouth and said, "My lord, let's have a taste."

Shaoyao was a little nervous.

Shen Zaiye took it directly from her hand. The moment he tasted it, he frowned, covered his lips and forced himself to swallow it.

His good upbringing prevented him from showing any indecent behavior in front of others, but there was a bit of restlessness in his eyes:

"bitter."

And it tastes terrible,

As if he was suddenly sentenced to death, Shaoyao's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly clenched her hands tightly, smiling bitterly:

"It seems like it's really hard."

Anyao simply put down her bowl and chopsticks: "Did Ms. Shaoyao puncture the fish gall?"

Peony grows eyelashes and closes eyes, making it difficult to hide the loss:

"I didn't process the fish properly, but I have washed it and the bile on it has been removed."

"It won't hurt if you wash it clean." An Yao said sternly:

"Fish gallbladder is so bitter that you have to wash it carefully many times. It is best to open another one. It will affect the delicious taste and the gain will not be worth the loss."

Shaoyao was very unhappy after hearing her education.

Who is she, that she dares to educate her?

She was very dissatisfied and raised her lips to smile:

"Princess, it is very shameful to waste food. I know you are a person who is not short of money, but you have to know that there are still many people in the world who cannot afford fish. It is really a waste for you to let me throw it away like this."

"?"

Leverage?

An Yao raised her eyebrows and decisively chose who to compete with. Her smile deepened and she nodded, agreeing with what he said:

"Okay, then just do it."

Jiang Muchen, who was watching the show, sneered twice:

"Princess, if this happened to you, how would you handle it?"

An Yao said calmly:

"It depends on what kind of effect I want to achieve. Just like what Shaoyao said, if you want to save food and don't want to waste it, you must carefully wash the fish gall, otherwise leaving even a little bit of juice will affect the food quality.

to the taste.

But to be honest, if the ingredients are sufficient, I would naturally not dare to take risks. I can keep those bitter things for myself to eat, but I can never give them to guests. This is a rule. In the past, once I left something unpleasant for others,

It’s hard to get back a good impression.”

After a pause, she smiled with relief like a hostess:

"However, the people present are all from the same family, and they don't speak the same language. I think Miss Shaoyao's cooking is pretty good. In fact, the bitter taste is quite clear. You can't taste it without tasting it carefully. It's really delicious.

"

Everyone followed the steps she gave and praised Shaoyao for her good cooking skills.

Although Shaoyao was smiling, she was already feeling unhappy in her heart.

Is there any need for her to pretend to be the hostess here?

She was even more dissatisfied and pretended to be friendly:

"I once heard that the princess is an excellent cook. She even came here to cook the food herself, despite the prince's objections. Is that right?"

This was a somewhat sharp question. The smile on An Yao's face froze slightly, and she stared at her without saying a word.

Seeing that he was silent, Shaoyao thought she was guilty of committing a crime.

After all, whose daughter is cooking for others outside?

This is also a shame.

She seemed to be joking: "Oh, I don't mean anything else. I just think the princess is very powerful and admire you. A woman like you is really the pride of us women."

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that she was not really complimenting An Yao at all.

Some people want to interrupt, but don't dare.

After all, this lack of respect is not done openly, it can only be said to be a covert insult.

But anyone else would definitely be angry at this time.

But An Yao did laugh.

She picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, her white and tender fingers were slender and beautiful, and she held it with dignity:

"Really? I'm really proud of that."

She glanced at the soup in front of her and sighed with some regret: "It's just that if Miss Shaoyao is going to handle the fish herself, she might as well say hello to me. I have an acquaintance who also works in the kitchen.

"

"Do you know him?" Shaoyao blinked, pretending to be apologetic, and frowned:

"Oh, I'm so sorry, Princess, I didn't know where your friend was doing odd jobs."

An Yao waved her hand generously: "It's okay, he probably doesn't care either."

At this moment, the door was suddenly knocked several times:

"Your Majesty, the chef wants to see you."

"Xuan."

As soon as the door opened, the chef walked in cautiously, holding his hands respectfully in front of him. At first glance, he focused on An Yao and leaned forward to bow:

"The prince is well! The princess is well! The Jade King is well!"

He personally brought a plate of food and placed it in the middle of the round table:

"This is the common people's wish. I hope the princes and princesses will accept it."

Shaoyao heard this familiar voice, turned around and saw it was him, and laughed out loud:

"Master!"

The chef was startled when he heard this, and was surprised when he saw Shaoyao: "Shaoyao, why are you here?"

"I also wanted to ask you. I didn't expect you to work here."

The chef smiled and nodded, praising:

"Yes! After so many years of not seeing you, you have really changed a lot."

I don’t know why this show seems to have become a master-disciple recognition.

Shaoyao stepped forward very intimately and said to Shen Zaiye: "Your Majesty, this is the master who taught me cooking. He has superb cooking skills. I have also learned from him for a long time. Although I haven't seen him for many years, thanks to Your Majesty,

Fu, I finally met the master!"

Jiang Muchen complained: "Weren't you cooking in the kitchen just now? Why haven't you seen him yet?"

"I cook in a small kitchen. Where can I get the chance to work with the chef?"

Shaoyao was extremely happy, and it was rare for her to be a bit naive like a daughter:

"If I knew Master was here, my soup would be even more perfect this time."

After saying that, she happily said to An Yao like she was showing off:
Chapter completed!
