Chapter 28: Cooking (2)
Lin Yuexi saw that she had finally coaxed this little ancestor, so she asked Mama Feng, "Mama, how many meals do you prepare for banquets in the palace?" And what kind of meals are generally prepared? ”
"Generally, the guests of the palace banquet prepare twenty-three meals, but the meals prepared also depend on the preferences of the guests, and some like vegetarian food; Some like meat food; Some like sweetness; Some like salty, and they are different. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Does that grandma know what flavors Imperial Doctor Chen likes?"
"Imperial Doctor Chen, he always comes to the palace to see a doctor for the prince, and if you want to say that the taste is nothing special, as long as it is delicious, he likes it."
"That grandma, you see that I have to prepare twenty-three meals, and I don't have time, so it's better to do this, I will prepare eight meals, and the rest will be prepared according to the previous preparations, you see like this."
"Well, this is the best, I don't know what meals the young lady wants to prepare, the meals in the palace are all regulated, a few cold dishes, a few meat dishes, a few vegetarian dishes, and so on."
"Oh, then, I'll make two cold dishes, a soup, a dessert, two meat dishes, and two vegetarian dishes."
"Oh, the old slave ordered to go down and prepare a meal, if the young lady has any needs, you can find the old slave."
"Okay, Mama, go get busy, I'll look for you if you need to."
"The old slave has retired." After Mama Feng finished speaking, she went down and got busy. ”
Lin Yuexi thought about what to do for a while, and suddenly remembered the roast duck that was popular throughout the Ming Dynasty in a certain time-traveling drama that was popular in the past, and even Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang was full of praise, thinking that I would also be fashionable once, maybe I would also become the god of roast duck in Ling Chenguo, and maybe it would also be popular in the entire Tidal Continent. Then I decided to make a Peking duck, as well as smoked fish my favorite, and then pearl meatballs, drunkard peanuts, mapo tofu, vegetarian stir-fry, and a chicken soup for beauty and weight loss, which is a must-have soup. It can be used for beauty and beauty, and it can be used for weight loss. I've eaten a little too much recently, my little belly has come out, and my face is round, I must pay attention to control, I want my little waist, I want my goose egg face. Finally, at the last dessert bar, I made a red mung bean paste shaved ice, the weather has been hot recently, and Lin Yuexi really wanted to eat cold and cold things, so I decided to do these. It's better to have some more red wine, but there must be no one here, or make some homemade fruit, healthy and delicious.
Lin Yuexi thought about what to do, so she asked Jun Chenxi to pick up ingredients together, and Lu Yi and Feng Li followed. First I found a fish and put it in a basket, then a piece of meat, peanuts, tofu, red beans, mung beans and some vegetables, but no chicken was found. In the whole process of looking for ingredients, Jun Chenxi is a curious baby, you have to ask what you see, I feel that these things are so fresh, I have never seen a raw one look like this, in Jun Chenxi's impression I have only seen these dishes cooked, so I feel very curious, I will go around and around, and sometimes I will walk to the chef who is cooking to observe, and when I see it, I see that the pot is on fire when the chef stir-fries, and I will clap my hands better.
This kind of Jun Chenxi is very cute, I feel full of vitality, Lin Yuexi thought in my heart that my efforts in these hours have not been in vain, at least I see that Jun Chenxi has become more energetic, and I am not dead anymore, and I feel very gratified.
And at this time, Jun Chenxi was thinking in his heart that these chefs who were cooking were all martial arts masters in the rivers and lakes that his mother told him, seeing that the vegetable cutter had cut the vegetables as thin as a hair, and he didn't have to worry about being cut by a knife, and what was even more powerful was the uncle who stir-fried vegetables, a fire erupted from the pot, and he could still stir-fry the vegetables calmly, and he didn't worry about being burned by the fire, which was really amazing. It turned out that he didn't know that there was such a place in the palace, and the people in it were so powerful, it was like acrobatics. Now the people in the entire kitchen are aliens full of various abilities in Jun Chenxi's eyes. His eyes were full of curiosity when he looked at them, but more than that, he admired and surprised them.
Lin Yuexi had almost finished preparing the ingredients, only one chicken was missing, so she asked Lu Yi to go to Mama Feng to ask if there was a chicken there. Lu Yi listened to the words and went to find Mama Feng, who was directing the kitchen maid to work. Lu Yi walked to Feng Mama and called Feng Mama, Feng Mama saw Lu Yi coming, and hurriedly said, "Sister Lu Yi came over, is Miss Lin any orders?" ”
"My lady looked for the ingredients and found that there was still a chicken missing, so she asked me to come over and ask Mama, there is a chicken in the kitchen."
"There don't seem to be any chickens in the kitchen, but there are live chickens in the yard, so I'll ask the servant to catch one."
Lin Yuexi happened to come over here, and when she heard that she was going to catch a live one, she said, "Mama is so busy, don't bother Mama, let's go by ourselves." ”
When Mama Feng saw that Lin Yuexi had said this, she called a maid and took Lin Yuexi and them to the side courtyard.
Lin Yuexi entered the side courtyard and saw that this was simply a small vegetable garden, with all kinds of vegetables planted in it, and there were chicken coops, duck coops and cow coops on the side. Lin Yuexi was very curious when she saw the cow, this palace doesn't plough the land, so she can raise cattle? He asked curiously the maid who led the way on the side, "Sister maid, there is no arable land in the palace, so you can raise cattle?" ”
"Miss Hui, these cattle are purchased and sold by small houses, raised here, when there is a banquet to use cows, there is no need to go to the street to buy, so that the ingredients are fresh and save time. The same is true for chickens and ducks here. ”
"Well, are there cows in these cows? I want to milk some milk."
"Miss Hui, there is a cow. If the lady wants milk, just ask the little guy here to squeeze a little. ”
Lin Yuexi had just finished talking to the little maid, when she saw a white-bearded old man greet her, kneel down and salute: "I don't know if the arrival of the prince is far away, please atone for the son." ”
Lin Yuexi saw that the old man was getting old, and he was still kneeling on the ground, so he couldn't bear it, and immediately said: "Old man, please get up, we came here to find some ingredients, you don't have to be polite." ”
"I don't know, what does the young lady need, the old slave will go and prepare it now."
"Oh, no, I want to find the ingredients myself, or the old man will show me the way, and show us around."
Lin Yuexi saw that there was a tour guide, so she asked the little maid to go back to work first.
When Lin Yuexi chatted with the old man, he knew that the old man's surname was Yang, he was a lonely old man, his wife was gone in his early years, and his children also died in the war.
After that, Lao Yang took us to the chicken coop and said, "Miss, I'll catch it for you, this chicken is flexible, and it is not easy for ordinary people to catch." ”
Lin Yuexi felt very happy when she thought that her father, the kitchen god in the 21st century, once again took her to the countryside to catch chicken, and at that time, her father also said to himself that as a chef, he should be responsible for the people who eat, so he should also do his own selection of ingredients. Lin Yuexi has always remembered this sentence, so every time Lin Yuexi cooks the ingredients are personally selected, although Lin Yuexi is not a professional chef, but under the influence of the chef's father, he has also formed some habits of being a professional chef.
"No need, I also want to feel the joy of catching chickens, Lao Yang, let's try it too, you can guide us on the side." Lin Yuexi thought in her heart that this could be regarded as a way for her to remember her father.
