Chapter 003 Dad is really nice

"Come on, Xinxin, can you help daddy crack an egg?"

"Okay, Xinxin helps dad beat the eggs!"

"Xinxin, help daddy press this little butter again, okay?"

"Okay, Xinxin helps daddy press the butter!"



The process of making this dessert was much smoother than Zhang Chen originally expected.

Moreover, in order to mobilize the enthusiasm of the little guy, he would ask the little guy for a small favor from time to time.

And when the little one heard that she could actually help her father, she was really happy.

Therefore, Zhang Chen did not feel too much pressure during the entire process of making this dessert.

The only time he got a little worried was when he reached the final baking stage, because he suddenly discovered that in this time and space, there was no such thing as a "tin cup".

That's right, the dessert he is going to make now is a very common breakfast dessert in another time and space, and it is also a famous breakfast dessert, "Egg Tart".

Egg tarts originated in Britain in another time and space. They are a Western-style pie with egg paste as filling. There are many types of egg tarts, including: butter type, puff pastry type, Portuguese type, etc.;

But the most famous egg tart in later generations, and also generally regarded as the most delicious egg tart, is the Portuguese egg tart.

The egg tarts Zhang Chen wants to make now are Portuguese egg tarts.

But there are a lot of materials needed to make a Portuguese egg tart, but fortunately they are all relatively common materials, such as eggs, flour, milk, white sugar, butter, condensed milk, etc.;

Zhang Chen searched around in his kitchen and probably found them all, so he thought that making this Portuguese egg tart would not be too stressful.

However, he never expected that the tin cup he would need for the final baking step did not exist in this time and space.

Because, in this time and space, there was no such dessert as egg tarts, and tin cups were usually used to make egg tarts.

Of course, in another time and space, tin cups may also be used to steam "fresh clams", but in fact, if there is no such thing as egg tarts, there is no need to use tin cups to steam "fresh clams"

.

However, this did not trouble Zhang Chen. What did it matter if there was no tin cup? He found tinfoil. So, he just used the tinfoil to make the shape of the cup. Zhang Chen still had this kind of hands-on ability.

After all, in another time and space, he was originally a person with excellent hands-on ability. Otherwise, how could he become a postdoctoral fellow who often performed high-precision experiments in the laboratory?

After the tin cup was ready, Zhang Chen quickly put the egg tarts in the oven for baking. It can be said that this is the most important step in the entire egg tart making process.

However, fortunately, the baking function of the oven in this era is similar to that in another time and space. Therefore, just half an hour later, with a crisp sound of "ding", in this time and space, the first

A batch of six egg tarts is finally freshly baked.

"Dad, are you ready? Can you eat it? Xinxin wants to eat it!"

The little one probably often watched her mother cooking at home, so when she heard the oven make a crisp "ding" sound, she knew it was done, so she squeaked and pestered Zhang.

Chen said.

"Xinxin, wait a moment, daddy will check if it's ready first."

This was Zhang Chen's first time making egg tarts in more than ten years, so he actually didn't know how well he did.

However, looking through the transparent glass lid of the oven, the golden egg tart on the tin cup is really already baked.

Judging from the appearance, it is really quite good. Of course, he still needs to taste it himself to know how it tastes. In the end, Zhang Chen stopped talking and quickly took out the six egg tarts.

.

"Ah, it's so beautiful! Dad, you are awesome, you can make such beautiful desserts."

When Xiao Xinyue saw that the egg tarts were finally out of the oven, she curiously went over to them.

As a result, her eyes suddenly lit up when she saw it. So, she gave Zhang Chen a big "like" without any hesitation.

"Isn't it beautiful? Come on, Xinxin, come here. Dad told you, this dessert is called egg tart. It is made with eggs and flour as the main ingredients. It is very delicious. How about it? Give it a try."

Zhang Chen was able to get praise from his daughter, and he was extremely satisfied for a moment. Finally, he gently hugged little Xinyue over, rubbed her little head and said.

"Really? Okay, then Xinxin wants to eat. Dad, please give me one."

"Okay. But Xinxin, please wait for a while, and daddy will try to see if it's hot or not."

Zhang Chen said, and quickly took a bite himself. This was something freshly baked after all, and he was afraid that if the temperature was too high, he would accidentally burn the little guy.

However, when I tasted it, the temperature was just right. Because originally, desserts like egg tarts need to be hotter to taste better. In addition, Zhang Chen has an almost photographic memory and super hands-on skills.

Thanks to my ability, this egg tart is really delicious, not inferior to the finished products made by pastry chefs in another time and space.

"Dad, how's it going? Is it delicious?"

When Xiao Xinyue saw that Zhang Chen had eaten first, she was not annoyed. Instead, she asked curiously with her big dark eyes flashing.

"Yeah! It's delicious, it's delicious. Come on, Xinxin, you can eat it too."

Zhang Chen originally only wanted to have a taste, but when he reacted, one egg tart had already been eaten. Fortunately, there were still five egg tarts left, so he quickly greeted the little guy and said.

"Okay. Thank you, Dad."

The little guy was very polite, and even said thank you to Zhang Chen before eating.

However, Zhang Chen is somewhat used to it, because Xiao Xinyue has already behaved like this in the past two days.

This made Zhang Chen happy but also very proud: This little guy was really well taught by her mother!

He is cute, sensible, doesn't lose his temper, and is polite. This is really not what ordinary three or four-year-old children can do.

Otherwise, it is said that people are born one-third and nurtured one-third. How can such a sensible and lovely child like Xiao Xinyue not be liked by others?

In particular, this little guy is Zhang Chen's own flesh and blood, so even though they only got along for two or three days, Zhang Chen has really regarded her as his own beloved child.

.

"Zi..."

The first bite of egg tart that Xiao Xinyue took when she opened her mouth was not too big, but she had already bitten into the semi-liquid and semi-solidified egg liquid in the middle. Therefore, the little guy was surprised at first, and then his eyes widened.

Then, in two or three mouthfuls, he actually ate the whole egg tart directly. After eating, he smacked his lips and said with a satisfied look on his face, "It's delicious, it's so delicious. Dad, the dessert you made is

It’s so delicious, even better than what Aunt Wu makes.”

"Who is Aunt Wu?"

Zhang Chen heard this and asked curiously.

"Aunt Wu... that's Aunt Wu! Didn't dad call Aunt Wu just now?"

"oh……"

At this moment, Zhang Chen finally understood. It turned out that the little guy was talking about Su Mi's manager Wu Lan.

However, why did this little guy not mention her mother Su Mi at this time, but instead mentioned Wu Lan? Zhang Chen was really curious for a moment.

As a result, after questioning, I found out that although Xiao Xinyue’s mother Su Mi is good at cooking, she doesn’t know how to make desserts. The desserts at home are usually made by Wu Lan. Because

, Wu Lan and Su Mi can be described as loving sisters, and she usually regards herself as Xiao Xinyue's aunt. Therefore, from time to time, she naturally has to bring some "small gifts" to please Xiao Xinyue.

Xiao Xinyue used to like to eat the desserts she made the most, but now that she tasted the "egg tarts" made by Zhang Chen, she immediately "rebelled".

Fortunately, Wu Lan didn't hear what Xiao Xinyue said at the scene at this time. Otherwise, she would have been furious. She had "worked so hard" and "endured all kinds of hardships" for the little one.

After making desserts for so many years, the result is not as good as the one her father made this time? It’s too disgusting.

"Dad, Xinxin still wants to eat."

"Okay, daddy will give Xinxin something to eat."

Little Xinyue finished eating one egg tart, but she didn't feel full at all.

After all, almost two hours have passed since dinner was finished and the egg tarts are baked now, and the little guy is already hungry.

In addition, the egg tarts were so beautiful and delicious, and they were just perfect for the little guy's taste. So, one, two, three, and soon, a whole four egg tarts were eaten.

As a result, when it was the fifth one's turn, the little guy started to get confused.

"555, Xinxin still wants to eat, but there is only one left, and I have to leave it to my mother..."

This is Xiao Xinyue's psychological activity.

Although Zhang Chen couldn't hear her voice, but seeing the tangled look on her face, he immediately understood. So, he touched the little guy's face with a bit of laughter and said, "Okay, yes

Don’t you still want to eat? Just eat if you want!”

"Don't worry, dad will make it for Xinxin and mom again tomorrow morning, okay?"

"Really? Thank you, Dad. Dad, you are really good! Hehehe..."

After hearing this, Xiao Xinyue finally stopped worrying. She turned around and hugged Zhang Chen's neck, and kissed Zhang Chen's neck sweetly without warning. Zhang Chen was so happy that he almost lost his way.

.

"Hmm, it's delicious, it's delicious..."

"Bah, bah, bah..."

"There's only one left, Xinxin needs to eat slowly."



Zhang Chen: "..."

He began to regret not making more egg tarts just now, and actually not letting his precious daughter eat enough. This was really a huge "sin".
