Traditional cakes handed down by Zhen Huan.

Summer leaves in a hurry, as if leaving some scent of sleeves. The wind that has just entered autumn still hides some summer residual temperatures. After one autumn rain after another, it also washed away the traces left by summer. It seems that autumn always gives people a sad feeling. Walking in the street, stepping on the dead leaves on the ground, I always feel a little disappointed. A gust of wind blows and goes with the wind. People will relax a lot when they smell the flowers. When it comes to osmanthus fragrance, I will think of my concubines and sisters in the palace. In The Queen of the Palace, Shen Zhongmeizhuang's favorite snack is Osmanthus Jelly with lotus root starch, which is not enough when watching the drama. In fact, this dish has appeared not only in The Queen of the Palace, but also in many TV dramas. The Empress Dowager of Ruyi Palace, the elderly Zhen Xuan, also likes this kind of cake very much. Anyone who has read Empresses in the Palace should know that Zhen Xuan and Shen Meizhuang are good friends. Later, the ending of Shen Meizhuang ended in misery. When old Zhen Xuan eats this cake, he will think that she is protecting Sister Mei everywhere!

Osmanthus fragrans and lotus root starch are from Hangzhou, so Osmanthus Jelly with lotus root starch is also a special pastry in the south of the Yangtze River. Some people can't accept the taste and taste of lotus root starch, but will it be acceptable to present lotus root starch to everyone in this way? When Shi Taijun gave a banquet in the Grand View Garden in the forty-first chapter of A Dream of Red Mansions, one of the snacks that Jia Jia invited everyone to eat was Osmanthus Jelly with lotus root starch. Grandma Liu ate half of it at once and saw it clearly in the TV series. Look at grandma Liu's reaction, and you will know how delicious this cake is. Sweet-scented osmanthus accompanied by the entrance of lubricated lotus root starch really has a feeling of walking in the rainy Jiangnan alley with an oil-paper umbrella.
