Chapter 445: Shut Up for Me, I'm Talking About Dog Meat, Not Dog Meat (Ask for Subscriptions, Tickets, Rewards)
Cheng Chubi is more concerned about the rosemary that will be used to cook beef and mutton in later generations.
It has already appeared in Chang'an in this last era, and there are also names such as mountain pepper and ground pepper.
"This root belongs to me, there is this thing outside Chang'an City, are you sure you didn't lie to me?"
Cheng Chubi unceremoniously took away the porcelain vase with a small rosemary plant.
"Of course, how dare the villain deceive Cheng Guanren's head, you are too wise, you can see through the villain's cooking secrets with just one glance......"
"If the villain offends you, where can he survive in Chang'an."
Seeing this guy's appearance of pointing to the sky, Cheng Chubi was happy. "Okay, you make your own barbecue recipe, that's your job. Hurry up and go ahead and bake it. ”
Cheng Chubi chewed the mutton skewers in his mouth, and carefully tasted them repeatedly, sure enough, although the amount of rosemary was not large, Cheng Chubi could be sure.
When this old beard's mutton was marinated, rosemary was definitely used, and even one or two spices that he couldn't distinguish.
Forget it, no matter what, I'd better eat it all first, and go back to the Imperial Medical Office to inquire, shouldn't the origin of this rosemary be in Europe or North Africa?
It is really puzzling that there are already wild things in Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty.
After eating and drinking, Cheng Chubi took a square step, carrying the small bottle of rosemary, and headed towards the Imperial Doctor's Office.
When I arrived at the Imperial Doctor's Office, I caught two doctors to inquire, neither of whom knew each other, but fortunately, the second doctor gave advice.
Let Cheng Chubi go to find Dr. Hu, the old driver of the acupuncture department, who is old and well-informed, and knows nine times out of ten.
In the courtyard where the acupuncture needles are located, Dr. Hu has also had lunch, and is sipping tea and enjoying a book of annotations on acupuncture.
I heard footsteps coming, and soon, I saw Cheng Chubi's tall and burly figure and heroic face.
"Cheng Taichang, please come in quickly......" Dr. Hu put down the manual in his hand and stood up to salute.
"Hu Lao doesn't have to be like this, sit down, Cheng Mou is here, in fact, he has a doubt, and he wants to ask you."
As he spoke, Cheng Chubi put the small porcelain vase on Dr. Hu's desk.
Dr. Hu was slightly stunned, then picked up the porcelain vase and put it to his nose to sniff lightly. "This is Shanjiao, I don't know if Cheng is too often for you ......"
"Old Hu, do you recognize this?" Cheng Chubi finally breathed a sigh of relief and met someone who knew how to do it.
#####
"Sort of, the old man has seen this thing outside Chang'an City in the past, and it smells strange and fragrant, and it seems to have the effect of getting through the tricks."
"I once asked the elders, and then I learned that this mountain pepper was sold by merchants from the Western Regions, and when the Three Kingdoms were brought in, it had already flowed into my Central Plains through the Western Regions."
"But the smell is a little ...... Therefore, it was not liked by the people of my Central Plains, and was abandoned in the suburbs, and over time, it was called mountain pepper and ground pepper by the people. ”
Listening to this Dr. Hu's eloquent words, Cheng Chubi suddenly realized, it seems that that old Hu is really not arrogant, this thing is really a foreign product that has already flowed into the Central Plains.
Cheng Chubi asked Dr. Hu if he still had any spices, which belonged to things that we were not very happy to use as spices in the Central Plains.
Dr. Hu stroked his beard and pondered for a long time before speaking.
"The old man doesn't know very well, but if Cheng Taichang is interested in these things, you can go to the West Market.
In the West Market, merchants from all countries gather in one place, and there are countless incense from all countries, so you may be able to find what you need. ”
Cheng Chubi said goodbye and left satisfied, yes, over there in the West Market, you have to go for a walk.
After all, there are so many soap soap bases in the house, and you can't find trouble with a few ewes at home.
I am determined to become a high-IQ businessman who is a giant of Datang daily chemical products, how can I only circle around a few ewes.
Well, you can really visit the West Market another day and see if there is anything new to discover.
But now, rosemary, has provided herself with a good idea.
Not only rosemary, but also other spices can be used to make soaps and moisturizers.
As for the low-grade products of alabaster, that is, I was worried that my father's skin would crack on the plateau, so I made a batch for Cheng Ji and Cheng Li to bring over.
That kind of thing that has no technical content at all simply lowers the research and development level of daily chemical products for Liang Cub, an excellent medical worker and Datang biochemical expert.
Cheng Chubi began to think seriously, thinking about the most common spices in his limited knowledge of spices, the Central Plains are very common, but the high-quality spices that are relatively rare in this period.
Rosemary can be used to make perfumes, soaps, and moisturizers.
However, it is obviously not enough to make only one fragrance series, Cheng Chubi frowned, and walked forward slowly, while Cheng Fa and Cheng Da followed suit.
At this moment he saw the dog in the kitchen of the Imperial Doctor's Department, which was lying lazily on the ground, gnawing on a bone for a while.
Cheng Chubi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help screaming. "Dog meat."
The dog suddenly heard this loud shout, and saw Cheng Taichang in horror, and immediately picked up his bones and grabbed his tail and fled into the distance.
“???” Cheng Fa and Cheng Da looked at each other with a bewildered expression, and Cheng Fa stepped forward with some hesitation and whispered.
"The third prince is right, the dog meat is really fragrant, but this is the dog of the Imperial Doctor's Department. You really want to eat ......"
"......" Cheng Chubi's whole person is not good. God's special dog meat is really fragrant...... Is Lao Tzu talking about dog meat?
"Shut up, I'm talking about dog meat, not dog meat."
"Is there any fragrant dog meat?" Cheng Da glanced at his brother who was stared at by the third son's copper bell and didn't dare to speak, and muttered in a low voice.
“!!!” Cheng Chubi opened his mouth, looking at the two brothers, eager to kick one by one, does this have anything to do with dogs?
Well, it really matters, but the problem is that a dog is a dog, and the smell of dog meat is the smell of dog meat.
"Stop, I'll take it slowly...... Yes, mint, well, the scientific name for dog meat fragrance is mint. ”
Cheng Fa and Cheng Da glanced at each other in confusion, and finally shook their heads.
Cheng Chubi thought about it, and felt that he was still too lazy to continue to explain to these two shallow guys, and it seemed that he would not only have to guide them in medical skills in the future.
It is also necessary to guide them in many aspects of knowledge, and they don't even know that the smell of dog meat is mint......
Well, Cheng Chubi himself is also a little guilty in his heart, in the Tang Dynasty more than 1,400 years ago, should this thing be called mint?
The reason why it is called dog meat fragrant, cough, as an immortal genius of southwest cuisine, Cheng Chubi naturally has the right to speak.
Dog meat aroma, this is due to the southwest of Guizhou Province for mint, a cooking spice.
