Bab 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.
