There is a kind of snack that is very expensive to buy outside, but you can make it at home for just a few yuan, and it is very simple to make.
Yes, it’s the “palace snack” that Empress Dowager Cixi loved.
A small plate in a restaurant costs more than ten yuan. Making it at home is easy and cheap!
Although this thing has been used as a "palace meal", the preparation is very simple and super simple. It just involves soaking, cooking, sand making, and shaping...
Let’s take a look below.
1. Soak peeled peas (available at TB) in water for a few hours.
2. Drain the water and put it into the rice cooker, add boiling water to slightly cover the beans, and turn to the rice setting until cooked.
3. Add appropriate amount of sugar and honey and mix well to form bean paste. If you want the bean paste to be more delicate, sieve it.
You can also add some fish gelatin powder or agar to make the finished product smoother.
4. Apply some sesame oil or butter to the bottom of the container, put the soybean paste into the container and smooth it out, and cover it with plastic wrap.
Place in the refrigerator for a few hours.
5. Take it out, cut it into small pieces and eat!
I think pearl milk tea can also be regarded as the representative of Dolly. Pearl milk tea originated from Taiwan. Its elastic pearls and the smooth taste of milk tea are very popular among people.
Now there are bubble milk tea shops everywhere.
Pearl milk tea is relatively expensive outside, usually in the early 20s, but actually the cost is very low.
Follow me and you can drink a delicious cup of pearl milk tea for a small amount of money.

My kids love it very much!
I feel that many things made outside are much more expensive than those made at home.
It feels like you can have a large table at home for the price of ordering one dish from outside.
When I invited friends over for dinner, I cooked a big table.
The ingredients cost 200 yuan.
I fried two flavors of lobster, one with garlic flavor and one with spicy flavor.
Lobsters were on the market in large quantities at that time. I bought 8 pounds for 16 pounds and spent 128.
Ordering a lobster outside will cost you the same price.
A spicy field snail costs 6 yuan per pound, and I bought 5 pounds for 30 yuan.
