Chapter 884: Chapter 609: With This Dessert, Mom No Longer Has to Worry About My Period!

The kitchen at Dorami Kindergarten.

"Swish~"

Aunt Li and Aunt Lin, along with others, are standing around the spacious, bright washing basin, dexterously moving their hands in the clear water as they prepare ginger for the upcoming breakfast.

However...

They do not peel the ginger during the washing process.

This practice is certainly not a random choice!

It strictly follows Huang Jun’s special instructions.

According to Huang Jun, there is a unique component in the ginger’s skin that can miraculously expedite the coagulation process when making the traditional dessert, ginger milk pudding.

If this layer of skin is removed, the resulting ginger milk pudding will be significantly inferior in texture and flavor, failing to reach the ideal perfect state.

Indeed!

The breakfast Huang Jun is preparing today is the mouthwatering and uniquely flavored — ginger milk pudding.

This ginger milk pudding is a specialty dessert from the Zhujiang River Delta in Guangdong Province, made by mixing ginger juice and milk together and then processing it.

This dessert has a rich and smooth texture, with a little hint of ginger’s spice amidst the sweetness, making it particularly delicious, and it also has the function of warming the stomach and dispelling the body’s cold, hence it is widely popular in South China.

For southerners, especially the people from Guangdong Province, ginger is not just a good seasoning but also a beloved ingredient.

Ginger can induce sweating and relieve the surface of the body, making it an indispensable condiment for those living in humid and hot regions.

They not only add ginger to dishes and soups but also incorporate it into various desserts and snacks, such as candied ginger slices, ginger tea, ginger walnut custard, ginger jujube stewed pear, and the ginger milk pudding that Huang Jun is about to make.

In fact, the process of making ginger milk pudding is far simpler than imagined.

Even those with no cooking experience can easily master the technique and perfectly present this delicious dessert.

The required ingredients are just as straightforward: fresh milk, ginger, and sugar, that’s all that’s needed.

The choice of sugar is quite flexible; whether it is granulated sugar or caster sugar, both can impart an excellent flavor to the dessert.

But rice sugar is not suitable!

Because its color might alter the dessert’s pure white appearance, affecting the overall visual effect.

"Chef Huang, we have carefully washed the ginger you wanted!"

Aunt Li’s voice crisply rings out in the operating room, as she steadily carries a basin of crystal-clean, spotless ginger.

Soon, Aunt Lin also brings in another basin of ginger, and smiles at Huang Jun.

"Alright, just put it on that workbench over there."

Huang Jun glances over and then instructs, turning his gaze to the assistant chef team waiting nearby: "Assistant Chef Qian, Assistant Chef Zheng, Assistant Chef Yu, please finely chop the ginger; Assistant Chef Meng, Assistant Chef Zhao, once they’ve chopped it, you are responsible for juicing."

In fact, according to traditional methods, ginger needs to be minced or crushed in a mortar and then finely filtered with gauze.

However, considering the large number of people at the kindergarten, this method is time-consuming and labor-intensive, so he decided to use modern technology to improve production efficiency.

"Alright, got it!"

Everyone responds in unison and starts to get busy.

"Chop chop chop—"

Qian Guoxiang skillfully taps off the water droplets from the ginger, slicing it into uniform small pieces, one cut after another.

Zheng Yaohua and Yu Daqing are not far behind, swiftly following suit.

The three work in harmony, their actions smooth.

Meanwhile, Meng Hongze and Zhao Weiguang have already prepared the juicer, carefully gathering the chopped ginger pieces and placing them into the feed inlet of the juicer.

With the machine starting up, the roar rings out, ginger pieces are quickly pressed, and a rich and fresh ginger aroma quickly fills the entire operating room, invigorating everyone’s spirits.

Soon.

All the ginger pieces are juiced.

Meng Hongze and Zhao Weiguang pour the golden ginger juice into several clean, transparent containers.

"Not bad!"

Huang Jun nods approvingly as he looks at the golden, clear, and fragrant ginger juice.

Finally, he turns to Jiang Shuihan and Lv Pengfei, who are busy adjusting the filming equipment: "Anchor Jiang, Anchor Lv, we’re about to start making ginger milk pudding; are you guys ready?"

"Everything’s set, we can start filming anytime," Jiang Shuihan responds with a smile.

"Alright, let’s begin then!"

With that.

Huang Jun swiftly places a large non-stick pot on the stove, then pours the prepared fresh milk into the pot, adds an appropriate amount of caster sugar, and lights a low fire, beginning the slow cooking process of the milk.

He skillfully operates, while speaking to the camera: "This step is crucial; remember not to let the milk boil. Once it’s boiled, the ginger milk pudding process fails, so we must strictly control the heat and keep it simmering on low fire."

It is said that milk heated to seventy degrees is ideal for making ginger milk pudding.

This point, Huang Jun has not studied deeply, nor has he checked the relevant materials, entirely following the cookbook built into the system, mimicking it.

However, it is worth noting that, after all, it is a secret recipe provided by the system; even following it half-knowledgeably, the resulting ginger milk pudding quality far surpasses ordinary dessert shops.

"Chef Huang, what are you busy with here? Why did you simmer so much milk..."
