"Cold dishes and big dishes are prepared in advance, and as soon as the diners are seated, they can be served. Cold dishes are appetizing, and large dishes need to be tasted when they are the hungriest and most appetizing, and they are worthy of the chef's careful cooking. While diners are tasting these two dishes, the chef can calmly stir-fry, and the dishes will be served as soon as they come out of the pot, and the heat will not be delayed, and the taste is the best. After tasting the hot stir-fried taste, the fragrant glutinous lotus root and salted egg yolk pumpkin are served on the square to fill the hungry stomach and fill the stomach. Stir-fried water spinach, fresh and refreshing, should be placed after a greasy and full stomach. ”

"Well said!" Yu Jiaoxi no longer hid the admiration on his face, "But in addition to what you said, you must also remember that even if it is the same type of dish, who comes first and who comes first is also quite particular: the salty one should come first, and the light one should be last; The thick one should come first, and the thin one should be later; Those who do not have soup should go first, and those who have soup should come later. ”

"Green bamboo remember." Green Bamboo bowed and replied. When he got up, he saw Yu Jiaoxi's chubby face full of kindness, and couldn't help but say mischievously: "Luzhu knows that the front is salty, even if you forget to put salt in the soup at the end, the diners will shout: This soup is extremely fresh!" ”

Yu Jiaoxi laughed out loud, stretched out his hand and patted Lu Zhu's head: "That's exactly the reason." ”

After speaking, he looked outside Nunu and said softly: "You take a look quietly, if they are all concentrating on their work." ”

Lu Zhu saw his mysterious appearance, comprehended, tiptoed to the door to take a look, and saw that the three people outside were working seriously, Liu Er and Sun Yuexia continued to fight while working. She turned her head and nodded at Yu Jiaoxi.

Yu Jiaoxi walked to the stove and opened a hot pot. There are two stew pots inside. I am simmering in boiling water "gurgling". He took a pair of bowls and spoons, opened the lids of the two stew pots, and scooped a spoonful of bird's nest out of each stew pot. Fu covered it again and handed the bowl to Lu Zhu: "Taste it." ”

Lu Zhu took the bowl and spoon, looked at the two spoonfuls of crystal clear bird's nest inside, and suddenly felt that his nose was sour, and he almost shed tears.

Since the cooking exam was under Yu Jiaoxi's door and commented on the dishes he made at Fu Heng's place, Yu Jiaoxi has favored her. made no secret of his admiration for her in front of people. Now, at the risk of being discovered, he specially recruited her into this room and scooped bird's nest from a stew pot specially stewed for the two sons to taste for her.

A cook. If you want to become a strong culinary, the first priority is to broaden your horizons and eat countless good things. In this way, the most delicious food can be made. Yu taught this move. The importance of cultivation for her is obvious.

Yu Jiaoxi was overjoyed to discover Maxima, so why wasn't she so glad to have met Bole? She has no relatives and no reason with Yu Jiaoxi, but she can be cultivated so carefully, how can she not be moved by this kindness?

Yu Jiaoxi watched her scoop a spoonful of bird's nest into her mouth, and asked expectantly, "How do you feel?" ”

Lu Zhu swallowed the bird's nest and raised his clear eyes. Bright smile: "The soup is as clear as water, and the color is like weak tea." The entrance is fragrant and delicious. ”

Yu Jiaoxi was stunned. After a moment, he gave a high-five: "Wonderful, wonderful!" ”

Lu Zhu secretly screamed that it was bad, quickly poured the remaining bird's nest into his mouth, and then took a step forward, put the bowl into the steamer, and as soon as the lid was closed, the three people outside stuck their heads in and looked at them: "What's wrong?" ”

Only then did Yu Jiaoxi realize that he was too excited and shouted too loudly. Hurriedly waved his hand towards the door: "It's okay, it's okay, you guys go and do your business." ”

When the three of them shrank back, he was still pacing back and forth excitedly, exclaiming: "These sixteen words describe the subtlety of this clear soup bird's nest." Wonderful, wonderful! Secretly decided, after a while, the son ate this bird's nest, and he must present the sixteen-character comment of green bamboo.

After being excited, he looked at the sky, touched his head and said, "This bird's nest seems simple, but it is actually extremely complicated. It's not something that can be explained in a moment. Let's cook first, and we'll talk to you later. ”

"Okay." Green Bamboo smiled.

She has been cooking dishes with the old man for more than ten days, and she is no stranger to bird's nest. This clear soup bird's nest, she once made it under the guidance of the old man. The taste, naturally, is not under Yu's teaching. Even not modestly, it is better than him.

This clear soup bird's nest is to choose the best tribute bird's nest or blood bird's nest, and then use the hot and cold temperature of the water, which takes four or five days to make, and then after repeated rinsing with water and careful selection of hair to remove impurities, it can be simmered in the clear soup.

In addition, the most important thing in this dish is the clear soup. It's called clear soup, but it's actually chicken soup. This soup should be mixed with old hens, old ducks, ham, hoof meat, pork ribs, dried scallops and other ingredients into the boiling pot respectively, add cooking wine, onions, garlic and other condiments to hang for at least two hours, and then rot the chicken breast until it is pure, pour it with fresh soup and stir it into a pulp, pour it into the pot to absorb impurities.

After repeated adsorption two or three times, the chicken soup in the pot, which was originally slightly turbid, is now as clear and clear as boiling water, with a strong and mellow fragrance, not oily or greasy, and refreshing.

Pour this clear soup into a stew pot with bird's nest and simmer it for an hour, which makes this seemingly light and unremarkable, but in fact extremely luxurious and cumbersome clear soup bird's nest.

And in the old man's recipe, there should be a pot of clear tea soup when served at the same time as this bird's nest. According to the principle of traditional Chinese medicine nourishing the liver in spring, nourishing the heart in summer, moistening the lungs in autumn, and tonifying the kidney in winter, in this early winter season, Cordyceps should be added to the tea soup to nourish the kidney, strengthen the body, calm phlegm and go asthma, and simmer for a long time, which is most suitable for Fu Heng, who often coughs.

"Ganlu." Yu Jiaoxi didn't make a move, but shouted outside. Seeing Ganlu come in, he ordered, "You go to the courtyard of the prince and ask if the two sons want to have breakfast." ”

"Yes."

Watching Ganlu go out, he handed Luzhu an apron: "Come, let's get the black fish fillet first." ”

Seeing the black fish raised in the stone-built pool, Lu Zhu exclaimed: "This black fish is so good." ”

The black fish is also known as black scales, mullets, and fire heads. "Shennong's Materia Medica" is listed as the top grade.

This kind of fish has a high meat yield, thick and white meat, less red muscle, no intermuscular spines, usually used to make fish fillets, the taste is extremely delicious, and rich in nutrition, the most nourishing. It also has an anti-inflammatory effect on wounds.

It was the early winter of the tenth lunar month, and the cold wind was rising, and the black fish tasted the best at this time. The black fish that Yu Jiao Xi obtained. It was huge, and it seemed to weigh seven or eight pounds; The appearance is vigorous and extremely fresh, which is completely different from the farmed black fish that Luzhu saw in his previous life.

Yu Jiaoxi caught the fish, raised the knife in his hand, and knocked the back of the knife on the fish's head, knocking it out. Only then did he disembowel, strip his belly, and remove his cheeks, and dispose of it cleanly. Then the head and tail are removed, and the remaining section is cut cross-cutting from the top of the fish bone against the bone. Cut off the upper half of the fish, then process the lower half according to the law, separate the middle fish bone from the fish body, and cut the whole fish into two pieces of fish body and one fish bone in the middle. and chopped fish heads.

He puts the head and bones of the fish in a bowl. said: "After cooking in a while, I will use this to give you a pot of black fish soup." ”

"Ah, yes! Black fish soup is the most delicious. Lin Xiangzhu said happily. The milky fish soup is her favorite.

Yu Jiaoxi said again: "Look at my knife, this fish, it should start from the tail of the fish." Press the tail of the fish with your hand and follow the direction of the bones to enter the knife. After that, he demonstrated it again. The fillets are then starched.

"Yu Jiaoxi. Brother Liewei asked and said that if it was done. It's ready to be served. Ganlu came in and said.

"Okay." Yu Jiaoxi shouted, "If the ingredients outside are handled, wash them and bring them in." He also instructed Luzhu to prepare the dishes, and pointed to Liu Er and Sun Yuexia, who came in with the ingredients, "After the dishes are ready in a while, both of you will help serve the dishes." ”

This was originally a matter of showing her face in front of her son, and Sun Yuexia should be happy. But she couldn't be happier today. What happened in the morning, she was hoping that Childe would forget her for a while and not remember it. At this time, I go to the son, and I don't know how to punish it.

"Yu Jiaoxi, my foot is a little painful, it's inconvenient to walk, if you fall and spill the vegetables, you can't be affected? Look, do you ask the heron to serve the food? She looked at Yu Jiaoxi and said pitifully.

Yu Jiaoxi frowned and glanced at Sun Yuexia, then turned his face to Ganlu and said, "You will serve food with Liu'er for a while." ”

"Yes." Ganlu has no opinion. Outside just now, Liu Er and Sun Yuexia were arguing with each other and hated each other. If we serve food together for a while, I don't know what will happen. It's better to separate them. This is the first time that the people in the cooking class have come out on an errand, and they have done a bad job, and no one can escape punishment.

So Ganlu and Liu'er served the dishes, the green bamboo helped the side dishes, and Sun Yuexia lit the fire. Unexpectedly, Ganlu and Liu'er sent the dishes, chopsticks and cold dishes over, but no one came back for a long time. Yu Jiaoxi knew something was wrong and sent Luzhu out to find out the news.

As soon as Lu Zhu entered Fu Heng's courtyard, he heard someone running out of it, and when he looked up, he saw that he hadn't seen him for a long time. He saw Luzhu and said, "Tang Gongzi's little servant has a sudden illness, I'll go get medicine." After saying that, he ran away with a smoke and disappeared.

Green Bamboo stood in place, thought about it for a while, and walked inside.

In those big families, a master has at least seven or eight subordinates to serve, but Fu Heng is obviously extraordinary, but his life is extremely simple, only Lie Wei is used to serve him personally, although there are two or three people such as Lie Zhi doing chores in the yard, but there are always few. Now Ganlu and Liu'er haven't come back, it must be because of this incident, there are not enough people, so they are kept. It's not appropriate to get here and not help. Inform Yu Jiaoxi of the news, but there is no hurry.

When I arrived at the gate of Fu Heng's courtyard, I saw several people gathered there. Fu Heng squatted in the middle, administering needles to a person lying on the ground; His cousin, Tang Ningyuan, stood aside with an anxious face; Ganlu was holding a silver needle in her hand and was standing next to Fu Heng to help; And Lie Wei was holding a moxa stick in his hand, and he was smoking a certain acupuncture point on the patient's foot; Su Yi and Tang Ningyuan's other entourage carried a bamboo couch out of the house, preparing to put him on the couch and move him to the house to rest after the patient woke up; Liu Er took a bowl out of the house and stood by and waited.

Everyone is busy, but there is silence, and everything is in order.

Midoritake walked to the side, just in time to wake up with a soft snort of "um" from the patient.

"Okay, take a dose of medicine in a while, and it's all right." Fu Heng pulled the needle out of him, took the bowl in Liu Er's hand, took out a medicine bottle from his arms, shook some medicine powder into the bowl, and handed it to Yuan Lin to feed him to drink.

After drinking the bowl of medicine in small sips, the patient's pale face slowly turned bloody.

Fu Heng instructed again: "Carry it to the couch, move to the west wing room first, and then go back to your courtyard." ”

"Yes." Su Yi followed the entourage, plus Ganlu and Liu'er helped, and carried the bamboo couch to a room next to him. This subordinate is about the same age as Tang Ningyuan, and the relationship between the master and servant should be extraordinary.

Fu Heng stood in the courtyard and didn't move, watching everyone enter the house, then he turned his face to Lu Zhu and said, "Heart disease, born." ”

"Huh?" Lu Zhu was stunned for a moment, not expecting him to explain to himself. In her impression, Fu Heng doesn't like to talk, and he doesn't like to express his thoughts. That kind of mature and steady bearing, not at all like a fifteen-year-old boy. Moreover, perhaps because of the difference in origin, or because he was in charge of so many people at a young age, he attached great importance to the rules of superiority and inferiority. Unexpectedly, at this time, he would explain to himself, a subordinate who didn't know anything, such a thing that had nothing to do with her.

However, she liked Fu Heng's equal way of speaking, and quickly replied: "Born with a heart disease? That seems like a hard cure. ”

"You know this?" Fu Heng was surprised.

"Huh?" Luzhu was stunned again. Thought she didn't understand, so why did he say it? Could it be that he was talking to himself just now?

Blinking, seeing that he was looking at her quietly with those deep pool-like eyes, but no longer speaking, as if waiting for her to answer, she had to say: "Well, there are people in our village who are born with heart diseases, and the onset is very scary. ”

This answer is decent.

Fu Heng looked at her deeply, turned around, looked at the room, and said, "It's okay, let's serve the food." ”

"That's right." When she was about to leave, he said, "If the dish is ready, you can ask Master Yu to come here." ”

"Yes."

When Luzhu returned to the small kitchen and told Yu Jiaoxi about the matter, Yu Jiaoxi jumped up: "What? Shou'er is sick again? I'll take a look. After saying that, the apron didn't have time to untie it, so he ran out of the door.

Luzhu was stunned. Could it be that the person who is sick or Yu Jiaoxi?

"Yu Jiaoxi, what's wrong with him?" Liu Er happened to come in and pointed out the door, looking puzzled. Immediately afterwards, Sun Yuexia also followed.

"The sick person may be a relative of Yu Jiaoxi." Lu Zhu turned around, lifted the lid of the pot, saw that the cooked dishes were hot in the pot, and said, "Childe called the dishes, let's send the dishes over." (To be continued.) )
