The Clamp Flower Palace Lantern Bun is a bun that requires very high fingering skills, but is actually not too difficult.

The biggest feature of this bun is that it looks good.

At first glance, it looks white and clean, and the color is milky white, even a little translucent. It has eight laces like a palace lantern, and is decorated with half a red cherry on top. The color is monotonous but bright. It is a simple and beautiful bun that is not fancy.

But if you take a closer look, you will find that this bun is not simple at all. On the contrary, it has many small patterns.

Each lace is carefully made, and all leaves need to be slightly turned outwards. The patterns on each lace are the same size and equidistant, and are clamped one by one with flower clips.

Even the rounded overall shape must be uniform and rounded to present the most comfortable, generous and simple effect visually.

The reason why the tongs flower palace lantern bag doesn't look fancy at first is because the maker wants to give you this feeling. The actual modeling steps are very complicated, and even the dough needs to be made slightly hard like the dough of a noodle to facilitate shaping.

At this time, someone may want to ask, Qin Huai has never made a flower palace lantern bag, and even there is not much information about the flower palace lantern bag on the market, how did he know so clearly about the flower palace lantern bag.

Because Zheng Da can do it.

Friends who read carefully must still remember that Zheng Da has two characteristics in making dim sum. It is too simple and he doesn’t bother to make it; it is too difficult and he is often too lazy to make it.

The palace lantern bag with tongs is one of Zheng Da’s favorite snacks.

In terms of technical difficulty, it’s really not that much. It’s essentially just an ordinary bun with bean paste filling or sesame candy filling. If you want to be lazy, just make it with bean paste filling. If you want to increase the difficulty, just make sesame candy filling. No matter how hard you work, you can’t turn it over.

Flowers come out.

The dough is also an ordinary dough, and does not have high requirements or difficulty. It is just that the dough needs to be made a little harder for shaping. And the difficulty of shaping is not as difficult as that of Mianguoer, so the difficulty of making the dough is not that high.

.

The most difficult thing is the modeling, but the modeling is not as difficult as Mian Guoer.

Mian Guoer has extremely high requirements on the chef's aesthetics and imagination. You will not be able to make good Mian Guo by copying a cat or a gourd. After making Mian Guoer, you are already pursuing art and have no artistic talent.

The chef cannot make good noodles.

But the tongs palace lantern bag is different, its shape is fixed.

It is simply tedious, requires patience, carefulness, and tests the chef's fingering skills.

Qin Huai previously thought that Zheng Da would most likely not be able to make palace lantern bags, because he felt that Zheng Da didn't like making such tedious snacks. Later, Qin Huai asked Zheng Da and found out that he was wrong. He was so wrong. He was still a little

I underestimated Master Zheng.

Zheng Da doesn't like to do it, but that doesn't mean he doesn't know how to do it.

At critical moments, Master Zheng still likes to take out this impressive-looking snack to prove his strength.

The Clamp Flower Palace Lantern Bag is very stylish from its name to its shape.

When Qin Huai asked Zheng Da last time, in order to prove that he really knew how to do it, Zheng Da took out his tools and made two for Qin Huai on the spot. He also sharpened his flower clips for Qin Huai, making them particularly suitable for making flower pliers bags.

It's just that Qin Huai has never tried it for such a long time.

It’s not that Qin Huai specifically ignored the Clipper Flower Palace Lantern Buns, the main reason is that Qin Huai didn’t expect Sixi Rice Balls to be so difficult.

When just looking at the name, who would have thought that the difficulty of making Sixi Rice Balls is actually more difficult than that of Clipper Flower Palace Lantern Buns?

At first, Qin Huai wanted to make the Sixi glutinous rice dumplings first, and then challenge the tonghua palace lantern bag. After all, Qin Huai's fingering skills were only elementary, although his apple noodle fruit did not look like elementary fingerings at all, like Meng Po's soup leakage.

He took two sips, but it couldn't change the fact that he didn't style the snacks at all.

Zheng Siyuan still can’t forget the black Doraemon bun that Qin Huai made a few months ago.

Although both Qin Huai and Qin Luo thought the steamed bun was pretty good, Qin Huai thought the black Doraemon was very creative, and Qin Luo thought the steamed bun stuffed with meat was delicious, but Zheng Siyuan just wanted to strangle the two siblings to death.

It can only be said that Zheng Siyuan is now able to accept mince fillings made from so many raw materials, and firmly believes that there must be delicious mint fillings made with such complex materials in the world. This is inseparable from the excitement in the past few months.

Zheng Siyuan has endured too much.

Qin Huai: Why did he cut the flower palace lantern bag halfway and suddenly started to feel a little sorry for Zheng Siyuan?

Forget it, don’t think too much and continue styling the buns.

Qin Huai took the flower clips and clipped patterns one by one.

Qin Huai began to understand Zheng Da a little.

If it wasn’t for showing off skills and showing off, who would want to make such complicated desserts?

Dead hand, move quickly! There are still 7 laces to be clipped!

When Qin Huai was making the Clipper Flower Palace lantern bag, everyone in the room except Chen Huihong went back to their homes. Even Gong Liang and his wife went back to the next door, excitedly waiting for the birth of the Clipper Flower Palace lantern bag at home.

Gong Liang had already thought about it. When he tasted the Clipper Flower Palace Lantern Bun later, he would have to hold back from taking a bite and take a photo to post on WeChat.

Take a picture of the nine-square grid and display the flower palace lantern bag 360 degrees without any blind spots. You must become the most beautiful person in your circle of friends tonight!

Let everyone know who is the real No. 1 pick of Master Xiao Qin and Xiao Zao.

Gong Liang was still at home looking forward to the shape of the palace lantern bag with flower clamps, while Chen Huihong had already moved a small stool and sat in the kitchen, eating winter dates and watching intensely.

"Is it my imagination? Why do I think this bun is so difficult to make?" Chen Huihong didn't understand. "Why haven't you bought the sugar from Xiaoou? Do you want me to call and ask?"

"It's just laborious." Qin Huai sighed, feeling so weak for the first time with his elementary fingering skills, "The shape of this bun is too delicate, I can't get used to it the first time."

In fact, if Qin Huai had followed the general shape of the tong flower bag on the Internet and randomly created a new shape of the tong flower palace lantern bag, it might not have been as laborious as it is now.

But Qin Huai had seen the genuine product made by Zheng Da.

You can say that Zheng Da is lazy, you can say that Zheng Da is not doing his job properly, but you can't say that Zheng Da is good at cooking.

Master Zheng, as a white chef, is also a hexagon warrior.

Qin Huai used the fully decorated palace lantern bag made by Zheng Da to show off his skills as a template. When he re-engraved it, he almost wanted to change his hands.

Brain: Do you understand?

Hand: roll.

Qin Huai pinched two more patterns and said: "Ouyang didn't come back so soon after buying sugar. The normal convenience stores nearby are closed at this time. The nearest 24-hour convenience store is 1.4 kilometers away. In addition, there are sales at the door of that convenience store.

Grilled sausages, octopus balls, hand cakes and grilled cold noodles. Ouyang ate two mince-filled dumplings tonight. Seeing these stalls, he will definitely not be able to walk around, and he will have to finish eating before he can come back."

Qin Huai said that he had made arrangements for Ouyang clearly.

"There isn't much sugar in the house, but I don't have it at all. I just found a reason to give it away."

Chen Huihong nodded: "The dumplings with mint filling are really uncomfortable to eat. They are too sweet and greasy, and they also have a messy taste. No wonder even Xiao Ou can't stand it."

"I have no choice. I tried my best, but there are too many raw materials for mince-filled glutinous rice dumplings. They are unreasonable. I have never seen such a ridiculous recipe. Now I can't wait for Gong Liang to give me another branch.

For the mission, when overtaking on a curve, I read his memory first, then pulled out the recipe for the mince-filled gnocchi and read the correct tutorial."

"How can anyone cook like this? Throwing all the raw materials into the pot, isn't this a mess?" Qin Huai couldn't help but complain.

Chen Huihong gnawed the winter dates silently without saying anything, as if she was thinking about something. She watched Qin Huai finish clipping a piece of lace, and then said slowly: "It's not... not at all."

Qin Huai:?

Qin Huai looked up at Chen Huihong and found that Chen Huihong looked like he was recalling the past. He knew that it was definitely not the memory of this life that he wanted to search for.

"When I was a crazy lady in Peiping, I actually had a similar type of food."

Qin Huai:??

Did the crazy lady suffer like this back then?

It seems that it is not easy to bring goods to Internet celebrities. There is still a price to pay for collecting money to eat.

Finding that Qin Huai looked at her with a little sympathy, Chen Huihong knew that he had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "It's not what you think, it's actually quite delicious."

"Do you know about Cannonball?" Chen Huihong asked.

Qin Huai nodded: "Of course I know. One of the eight delicacies is actually roasted suckling pig. Various ingredients are stuffed into the pig's belly and roasted. I have never eaten the serious cannonball. Roasted suckling pig is served every year during the Chinese New Year.

We eat them all. My relatives like to send roasted suckling pig, roasted goose, roasted duck, barbecued pork, and plain-cut chicken to my grandparents’ house during the Chinese New Year.”

Chen Huihong:?

Does your family send these as gifts during the Chinese New Year?

"It may be more common now, but at that time, cannonball was an absolutely rare dish. Prince Baylor, who was a little more downtrodden, would only order cannonball from a restaurant during the Chinese New Year just to fill the occasion."

"After Huiniang passed away, I stayed in Peiping for a few more years. I think by that time some people might have guessed that I was no longer a popular lady, but the nobles didn't care at all, and I don't care either, as long as I have something to eat and play with."

"One time, a young man from the governor's family came to Peiping. He brought a cook with him to compete with other young men."

"It's hard to compare with other dishes, but it's better than Cannon Pork. All kinds of weird and weird ingredients are added to Cannon Pork, but the price is worth a thousand dollars."

"Live fish brought from the south, fresh bear paws freshly hunted by hunters, bear bile, tiger meat, matsutake mushrooms that are difficult to collect in the southwest mountains, some caviar from the West, foie gras, fresh food that is hard to find in winter

Vegetables, if there are dragon liver, phoenix gallbladder, dragon liver, phoenix gallbladder, etc., I can’t wait to ask the cook to add dragon liver, phoenix gallbladder, and phoenix gallbladder.”

"The ingredients are much more complicated than your mincemeat filling. Everything that flies in the sky, runs on the ground, swims in the water, and is buried in the soil, as long as it is valuable and rare, has to be stuffed into the pig's belly. In the end

The cooked cannonball must be so delicious that it scared the owners and cooks of several restaurants and ran away overnight.”

"Is it delicious made by those who didn't run away?" Qin Huai asked curiously. Chen Huihong had never told such a wonderful story before.

Chen Huihong thought for a while: "General."

"You can't say that, it's actually the taste of cannonball. Now that I think about it, the cooks at that time were pretty good. With so many miscellaneous things, the final cannonball tasted almost the same as the original."

"I didn't understand it at the time, but I can understand it now. Those wealthy young men don't pursue delicious dishes. What they pursue is expensive, fresh, and unique dishes. They just want to compare with others."
