Chapter 123: Make Malatang

Ma Wenbing has nothing but thanks, this time no matter how thanks to Concubine Niangniang, for him, Concubine Niangniang is a great benefactor, if he can really win the first place in this competition, then ninety percent of the credit will be given by Concubine Niangniang.

With Concubine Niangniang's two ninety-nine points, this time she said that she was more confident in winning the first place, and victory was in sight.

It's a pity that the master and senior sister Liu Ling'er are not here, if they see his successful process, they can repay their expectations. It is not yet known where they are.

As soon as he thought of his senior sister Liu Ling'er, Ma Wenbing had to blame himself, it was all his own fault, which made his senior sister run away angrily, if the senior sister was in danger or something, she would definitely not be able to forgive herself.

There is a reason why Concubine Niangniang likes Ma Wenbing, especially when Ma Wenbing tells the story of fairy matching, which reminds her of when she was young, she had a favorite Rao at that time, and she loved it deeply.

Later, I was forced to come to the palace, and the person I really liked, I am afraid that I will never see each other again in this life, thinking that this is really the same as the story of the cowherd and the weaver girl in the fairy match, how can I not be sad.

Not only is the concubine very sad, but in fact, the sweet potato is also sad, she also has her first love, that is, the Black Wind General, although she is not a person who values love, money and power are more important, so she is sad a lot.

The emperor is not sad, as long as the concubine and sweet potato are good, then he is basically not interesting. But he also likes Ma Wenbing a little, because of the previous poem, he likes poetry.

Concubine Niangniang had already scored ninety-nine points, and personally asked the emperor and sweet potato Niangniang, and in doing so, she also helped Ma Wenbing. The emperor scored ninety-five points, and the sweet potato lady scored ninety.

This time, Ma Wenbing is the first place again, as long as the third game is not too lazy, it will be easy to get the first place.

It was as if victory hung above Ma Wenbing's head, ready to be taken off at any time.

This time, except for Ma Wenbing, the scores of the other contestants were very low, and those above 80 points were high scores, so everyone had little confidence in the competition.

However, everyone has not completely given up, because the third game is a hot dish and the most important game, and there is still a chance to reverse.

Grandpa Rui began to open the third test question, only to see that the general meaning of it was written: marching and fighting, it is very difficult to transport ingredients, if you are a chef, what can you do to alleviate this problem more or less?

Compared with the first test and the second test, the third test has a wide range of ideas and no specific restrictions, but it is not so easy to do, and only people with intelligence and experience can do it.

Ma Wenbing has never joined the army to fight or anything like that, especially in this era, he doesn't know anything about the army, and some of them are only seen in costume movies, and he has very little help, almost no help.

Ma Wenbing asked Lord He Yiping if he knew about the affairs of the army, especially the guys, and Lord He Yiping He shook his head and said that he didn't know either.

"The test questions are really more strange than the other, what kind of test questions is this, and what is not done? It is really that the older people get, the more confused they become, and they come up with such strange test questions. Xiang scolded softly.

Xiang is the identity of the princess, naturally there is no taboo, only she dares to scold like this, if it is not the identity of the princess, but the identity of Liu Linger would not dare to scold the emperor like this.

Although everyone has not experienced anything in the army, everyone can imagine it.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers are far away in uninhabited places, and the grain is transported hundreds of miles away, which must be very difficult, so the grain transported in the past is very precious.

Rice is like gold, vegetables are like silver, a little is not an exaggeration.

Since the emperor came up with such a problem, it must be this problem that bothered him, and he planned to borrow the wisdom of the contestants to solve this problem.

Ma Wenbing thought about it, how to make effective use of food, this is the problem, because when making materials, he often throws away those ingredients that look bad and taste bad, or those leftovers that he thinks should be thrown away.

What Ma Wenbing thought about was how to make use of the discarded ingredients and leftovers? The first thing that came to mind was Malatang.

Malatang has not been in this world, and the white is to put all kinds of ingredients into a pot and blanch them, and add various ingredients to make the taste naturally unique.

Moreover, the source of Malatang was also the first to be invented in the army, and the soldiers had no choice but to put all the remaining ingredients into the pot to cook, which was the origin of Malatang.

After Ma Wenbing thought of the idea, he immediately began to take action, and said to Xiang: "I have already thought about what to do, you accompany me to choose the ingredients." ”

Ma Wenbing took a basket and handed it to Xiang, took a basket himself, and began to choose ingredients together.

This time it was Ma Wenbing who was the first to know how to do it, and the other contestants were still thinking about this question, it seems that the biggest dark horse in this competition is Ma Wenbing, no one knows him, and they don't know where he comes from.

Although Xiang was holding the basket, he didn't know what ingredients to choose, because Ma Wenbing hadn't followed her yet, so he asked him what ingredients he wanted to take?

Ma Wenbing's answer shocked Xiang, there was nothing else but shock, Ma Wenbing's answer was: the worst, ugliest, and most unpalatable ingredients.

I can't understand this incense, they all choose the best ingredients, and Ma Wenbing wants her to take the worst ingredients, what's going on?

Ma Wenbing explained: "This time the test question is to be a chef in the army, so we can't think that we are a competition, but in the barracks where the ingredients are scarce, how to make a delicious dish, you know?"

Xiang said: "I know this, but there is no need to really choose rotten vegetable leaves, right? ”

"You have to choose rotten leaves, and those yellow, old, unpalatable ingredients. Ma Wenbing said firmly: "Think about it, why did the emperor come up with such a strange test question, doesn't he just want us to help his army come up with a way to alleviate the food shortage when he was on an expedition? If we choose the best ingredients, then this competition will definitely be a low score, I'm afraid it will be a zero score." ”

"Okay, I'll just listen to you. Xiang Yanya smiled, Ma Wenbing thought more accurately than her, she just didn't understand to ask, or she was just afraid that Ma Wenbing was wrong, it didn't matter if she asked, she was sure that what Ma Wenbing thought was really right.

So, Ma Wenbing and Xiang began to choose the worst ingredients, such as cabbage and the outermost layer, because that layer is the oldest, and the radish, which is also the root of the radish and the most tender and freshest on the top, as well as lettuce with skin, and lotus root, too, which is the oldest.

Ma Wenbing and Xiang chose a total of about twenty kinds of ingredients, all of which were vegetarian dishes, because only vegetarian dishes will have the worst, and meat cannot have the worst.

But Ma Wenbing thought about it again, there is meat in Malatang, and if there is no meat material, Malatang is so delicious.

This is a problem, how to put the meat in the spicy tang, and it makes the eater feel that there is nothing, but there is a good idea to be used.

Ma Wenbing looked around all the ingredients, and every ingredient was in his eyes, including meat, there were all kinds of animal meat, flying up, running on land, and swimming in the water.

These meat on the board can not be added to the Malatang, if added in, it is not a way, since there is such delicious meat, then what is the solution to the difficulty of transporting food?

Ma Wenbing's eyes rolled around, his brain was very fast thinking, and finally he thought of a solution.

That is, instead of the best meat, but the offal and skin meat that people often don't use, this is a delicious and good thing in the world of Bellai.

The first thing Ma Wenbing thought of was the pork skin, thinking that the pig skin was the best to get, as long as the fat was cut off, it was the pig skin, and the pig skin was very chewy and tasted very delicious.

Ma Wenbing took a piece of pork and began to cut it with a knife, the knife technique was very exquisite, the whole piece of pork skin was perfectly cut, and there was no support.

On a piece of pork skin, there is no fat and lean meat at all, Ma Wenbing then cut the pork skin into pieces, about 30 pieces, thinking that this time is different, the five judges can't eat a bowl of Malatang, so he has to make five bowls of Malatang, so he has to cut a lot of pork skin.

Ma Wenbing brought a few more pieces of pork, all cut up in the same way, although Xiang didn't understand why Ma Wenbing did this, but he believed in Ma Wenbing, so she insisted on Ma Wenbing's approach.

Ma Wenbing probably cut more than 100 pieces of pork skin, and most of each piece of pork skin is about the same, especially the thickness, so that the taste is uniform.

The pigskin is there, and Ma Wenbing has to choose two meaty ones that are better, what are the second and third choices? Ma Wenbing went to the board where the ingredients were placed to find it.

The remaining two choices are more difficult, Ma Wenbing recalled the spicy tang in Bailai's world, there were many kinds of meat dishes in it, and Ma Wenbing began to think about them one by one.

For example, there can be pig blood or duck blood in Malatang, and the taste is very good when you bite into it.

"Is there pig blood here? or duck blood. Ma Wenbing asked Xiang.

Xiang looked around for a moment and replied, "All the ingredients are here, if there is no here, there must be none." ”

"There's no pig blood or duck blood here, I've seen it. Ma Wenbing replied, very disappointed.

"We don't like to eat those things very much, the kind of things like pig's blood and pigskin, do you want to think about it again, is it really okay to compete with this kind of thing? ”

"You don't believe me yet. Ma Wenbing said with a smile: "Actually, I cook according to my own ideas, and even I am not 100% sure, but after so many years of chef experience, I think the most important thing in cooking is to do it according to my own ideas, and I don't know if this idea is right." ”

Xiang pouted and said: "It's not that I don't believe you, I will support you in whatever you do, even if it fails, it doesn't matter, I just want you not to miss anything before cooking, I don't want to see you in pain when the time comes." ”

Ma Wenbing smiled: "No, I won't be in pain, what if there is no pig blood or duck blood now? ”

"Do you really need pig blood?" Ma Wenbing asked, "Let's change it, can't we let that eunuch help us again?" ”

Ma Wenbing thought: "If there is no pig blood and duck blood or something, then what else to choose? Chicken intestines, duck intestines and goose intestines are impossible, there is no such thing here, as for other duck livers and duck hearts, you don't have to think about it." ”

People in this world don't like to eat those things, don't you know that those things are not wrong and delicious, of course, you have to have the ability to cook them

There are no two or three kinds of meat, only the pork skin is not enough, the spicy tang made is very bland, Ma Wenbing is in trouble and can't think of a solution.

Ma Wenbing told Ma Wenbing his thoughts, but did not tell Lord He Yiping, because he had been staring at several people in the Western Regions, because he found that several people in the Western Regions were likely to attack this time, whether it was their expressions or actions, they had seriously betrayed them.

"Everyone's heart, this time I think those people may want to start, and the two of you must also be prepared. Lord He Yiping He instructed.

Listening to He Yiping's words, Ma Wenbing and Xiang's thoughts instantly shifted to Rao in the Western Regions, and they looked at those people with their spare eyes, and they did have conspiracy actions.

"Great, when the time comes, you can kill two birds with one stone, and everything will be done. Xiang Gao said in his heart.

"Now we are very powerful, and the concubine Niangniang likes Ma Wenbing very much, and it will be easy to eradicate the sweet potato Niangniang when the time comes, everyone is looking forward to it, so you don't have to worry so much about the third dish, as long as it is done the same." ”

He Yiping and the adults admitted that as long as those people from the Western Regions made their hands and poisoned, their conspiracy could be exposed on the spot, and when the time came, a grudge between the sweet potato Niangniang and Princess Xiang would definitely be alarmed, so I am afraid that no one cares so much about the result of the game.

Ma Wenbing nodded, since this is the case, if you can't think of the last two meat dishes, don't think about it at all, don't add it, as long as the soup is done well.

Ma Wenbing and Xiang began to clean the dishes they selected, because they were all very poor dishes, so it was more difficult to clean, so after the dishes were washed, they were all put together and waited to be used.
