141 Hawthorn Cake

As there were too many hawthorns, Yu Niaoniao and Dang Gui would not be able to handle all of them.

Hence, Yu Niaoniao called the kitchen helpers over and taught them how to remove the core of the hawthorns .

The kitchen helpers got the hang of it quickly and soon finished dealing with a basin full of hawthorns.

The hawthorns were cut in half and placed in the water. Yu Niaoniao cooked them until it was soft.

After the hawthorns cooled, she mashed them together with the remaining juice and stirred.

As there was no blender, she could only stir it manually the entire time.

By the time she finished this step, Yu Niaoniao was already drenched in sweat.

She poured the mashed fruit into the pot and added a moderate amount of white sugar. She simmered it.

The fruit paste was being cooked until it was sticky. It gurgled and bubbled. The sweet and sour smell of hawthorn alone filled the air.

Dang Gui sniffed.

Just the smell of it made one’s mouth water.

Feeling that it was about time, Yu Niaoniao said, “Give me the lotus root powder.”

Dang Gui immediately brought over a cloth bag filled with lotus root powder.

She took out a little and poured it into a bowl. Then, she added some cold water and melted the lotus root powder.

Then, Yu Niaoniao took the bowl and poured the paste into the pot. She continued to stir.

At this moment, the hawthorn pulp had already become extremely sticky.

Yu Niaoniao picked up the iron pot and poured the fruit paste into a large bowl. Then she placed it in the shade and waited for it to cool naturally.

Then it was time to make candied hawthorn.

Yu Niaoniao first brewed a large pot of syrup with sugar and water.

When the syrup turned brown, she rolled the skewered hawthorns in it.

When she took it out again, the red hawthorns were already wrapped in a sparkling sugar coat.

She put the candied hawthorn on a plate and continued to make a second, a third...

In addition to the most ordinary candied hawthorns, she made a fruit version. She picked out a larger hawthorn and cut it in half. She placed fruit in the middle and wrapped it in sugar.

Dang Gui stared without blinking.

Seeing that she was eager to try, Yu Niaoniao said to her.

“Do you want to try it too?”

Since the syrup was already stir-fried, she didn’t need to do anything else. She just needed to put the candied hawthorns in the syrup and roll them. It was a simple operation. Yu Niaoniao wasn’t worried that Dang Gui would mess up.

Dang Gui was excited.

She took Yu Niaoniao’s place and picked up a string of hawthorns. She carefully dipped it into the syrup, then mimicked Yu Niaoniao. She pinched the end of the bamboo skewer and rolled the hawthorns around before slowly taking the skewer out.

Dang Gui immediately looked at Yu Niaoniao. Seeing her nod in agreement, she was overjoyed.

She had learned to make candied hawthorn!

Although she had lost her memory and did not know where she had come from or what kind of person she had been in the past,

But she wasn’t dismayed by that, because she knew she was lucky to meet Yu Niaoniao.

Yu Niaoniao gave her a name and brought her from Bashu to the Imperial Capital. She even let her eat a lot of delicious food.

Her days were happy and full. She even felt that it would be good to live like this forever.

The hawthorn pulp in the bowl had completely cooled and solidified.

Yu Niaoniao placed it upside down on the chopping board, and the paste inside was poured out.

It was a deep red color, and when poked gently with a finger, it swayed slightly with it, looking like a large jelly.

Yu Niaoniao cut it into small pieces and placed them on the plate. At the end, she did not forget to use the petals to form a heart.

The lotus root powder hawthorn cake was made!

She took the hawthorn cake to Duke Lang.

“Baby, try my new hawthorn cake.”
