Actually, this time, Fu Yu took a bit of a shortcut in his cooking.
Because the customers were already at the restaurant waiting for a tasting, he had to rush a bit with the timing, and couldn't cook meticulously.
The authentic Beneficial Spleen Cake should be made by tying up Atractylodes and dried ginger in gauze, boiling them with red dates for one hour, removing the medicine bag, peeling and pitting the dates, continuing to simmer over low heat, mashing the dates into a paste, and then cooling them before mixing with chicken gizzard powder and flour, adding an appropriate amount of water, and cooking as usual to form cakes.
But now, to save time, Fu Yu chose to use ready-made Atractylodes powder, dried ginger powder, and chicken gizzard powder.
Although the medicinal effect is the same, the taste might be somewhat lacking.
Knowing this well, Fu Yu focused a lot on the final presentation during cooking.
He divided the well-mixed dough into small, even-sized pieces.
