Chapter 51: Stir-fry frenzy
Fang Xuanling increased his forehead with his hand: "Chen Chu, how distrustful you are of Chang'an's security!" ”
Princess Jiujiang and the others had been invited one after another at this time, and she suggested: "Second brother, why don't you suggest that Your Majesty send the soldiers and horses of the Imperial City Guard to protect the Chen Mansion?" ”
"After all, the value of Mr. Chen's family's wealth is very high, and once it is lost, or Mr. Chen's personal safety is threatened, it is my Datang's loss."
The soldiers and horses of the Imperial City Guard? Of course, his duty is to protect the imperial city, which is equivalent to the emperor's own soldiers, how can he protect outsiders?
However, everyone took it for granted.
Why? First of all, not to mention the special status of Chen Chu and the importance of his treasures, let's just say that His Majesty and these important ministers will definitely come and go here frequently in the future, and the security issue is the top priority, and there is no problem with the dispatch of the people and horses of the Imperial City Guard.
Let's talk about this public security problem, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, if Chen Chu's hot pot is stolen by someone one day, I am afraid that if one of them counts as one, they will be half angry.
Li Er nodded slightly, the Imperial City Guard has many veterans who fought the world back then, and it is a boring drudgery to keep them in the Imperial City, and it is a good idea to transfer them to Xuanyang Fang in turn.
It is indeed important to protect everyone's safety, the imperial city is boring, and it may not only be him in the future, but the harem concubines will come over occasionally.
So he decided to come down and transfer two battalions of officers and soldiers to garrison nearby, and at the same time he could also garrison the entire Xuanyangfang, so that the high-ranking officials of the imperial city could also come and go here often with confidence in the future.
"That's good." Chen Chu immediately gave a thumbs up happily, as long as the head of the ranger brothers was not cut off in the middle of the night, it was good, the army was stationed in the mansion, safety was more important than everything.
Chen Chu is alone, it is impossible to live in such a large place, so he can naturally realize his ideas, take out a large amount of area that is not used, and build a new and real Chen Club.
Chen's Mansion, that is, the area where Chen Chu lives, is facing the Fang Road, but the clubhouse is facing away from the Fang Road and facing a street in the Fang, so that the Chen Clubhouse is much more low-key, and the road conditions are simple and easy to manage and protect.
Chen Chu looked at the drawings, and with a stroke of the pen, an area of about 100 meters by 200 meters to the west was used as the Chen Mansion, a total of thirty acres, and the rest was used as a clubhouse.
The two places should be separated in the middle, and no one was allowed to enter or leave, and he himself was the same, and if he wanted to go to the clubhouse separated by a wall, he would go out and go around in a half circle.
This is done to prevent any damage caused by someone crossing over in the future.
Although he felt that his family was a little too big, he was quickly persuaded by Li Er and the others that he couldn't be smaller.
The two hot pots were opened, and the family members from the big men outside Chen Chu's mansion also arrived, and the eldest grandson Wuji and others hurriedly rushed out to meet them, naturally worried that they would expose their identities.
Soon in the reception hall, two hot pots burned on two large tables, and all kinds of stir-fried dishes were fried by Chen Chu with Yuzhu and others, and they were served to the pot with the deadly aroma of stir-fried vegetables.
In the past few days, Chen Chu taught Yuzhu to stir-fry them, after all, this is a personal work, Chen Chu can't always fry by himself, and stir-fry will become a well-known dish in the future, and the people at home must be proficient in this cooking skill.
Easy seasoning box!
This is Chen Chu's new harvest in recent days, which includes six flavors of seasoning, including salt, monosodium glutamate, pepper, five-spice powder, as well as bean paste and tomato paste.
Among them, watercress and tomato sauce occupy half of the box space, the seasoning box itself is not too small, and the reserves of various seasonings are not small, such a price of 10 spit value is simply cost-effective.
Chen Chu really shed tears that he hadn't seen for a long time, he was still thinking about collecting all kinds of condiments from Datang with difficulty, but now he has a finished product in one go!
Although this thing is not good for single mass production, at least he is really eating and drinking, and since then, he is really no different from modern life.
It is put in the kitchen for stir-frying and cooking, and the taste of the stir-fry has been drastically improved compared with the previous dish of leek scrambled eggs.
Stir-fried meat with dried chili, stir-fried tomatoes with cucumbers, eggplant beef, fried lamb with green onions, etc., looking at the intermittent two tables, each of which was a dish that they had never seen and heard of, Li Er and the others were dumbfounded, and the whole person was completely stupid, completely stupid.
Totally stupid!
In ancient times, there was a saying that if you don't see Chen Chu for three days, you should be impressed, and if you put it on Chen Chu, it is that you can't see Chen Chu for three days, and the mana is boundless!
How much does this person want to contribute to Datang's cuisine!
If food can also be crowned as a king, then Chen Chu must be the king of kings, right?
"Haha, don't look at me with such adoring eyes, in fact, I didn't do anything, don't look at so many dishes, in fact, it's all one way, that is, stir-frying."
Chen Chu introduced the method of stir-frying, which made everyone dizzy and silent, such a simple cooking method, no one has found it since ancient times?
If Chen Chu hadn't told them these today, they wouldn't have thought of it in their lives and wouldn't have been able to enjoy it, right?
"Alas, I just thought that the scrambled eggs with leeks over there at the Chen's Club were a new delicacy, but I didn't expect it to be a series." Fang Xuanling said with annoyance, his mouth was full of words, and he couldn't wait to get off the chopsticks now.
"The most important thing in stir-frying is the choice of oil, the current sesame oil is the most suitable, of course, after I grow the corn in Sinong Temple, we can use the corn to squeeze the oil, and its taste will be countless times more wonderful than sesame oil."
Everyone was already hungry and thirsty, Chen Chu signaled to move their chopsticks and not to look at it.
I unbuttoned my apron and tasted it first, and everyone moved their chopsticks one after another, and the praise rang out endlessly for a while.
"It's amazing! Following the text reform of my Datang, I am afraid that the food reform will also begin! ”
Yu Shi Nan Zi took a sip of wine deliciously, don't look at him as an official all his life, and live longer than others, but after the wars of the Northern and Southern Dynasties and the end of the Sui Dynasty, he has seen and I don't know how many lives and deaths, and the vicissitudes of life and death are very fond of these beautiful things.
Li Er couldn't wait to bring the gang of imperial chefs in the imperial city over to take a look, are the things you made for human consumption?
Look at what Chen Chu did, look at what other people do!
The seasoning box, Chen Chu didn't plan to take it out for the time being, because there were too many new condiments in it at once, and he was afraid that everyone wouldn't be able to accept it, and he was also worried that he would be asked for it by the roots, or they would be tempted by the food in the future.
Just hide it and keep it for himself, and only after using up one box will he take out a new one, so that these anti-heaven flavors will become a secret for the time being.
"A good knife with a good man, it is not enough to have the technology of stir-frying, condiments are very important, Datang is far behind in this regard, and even refined salt cannot be refined, of course, this is already at the forefront of the world."
With so many new dishes, two copper hot pots cooked together, and fine wine on the table, the whole hall was filled with the aroma of food.
Even Li Er was even thinking, if there really is a fairyland, maybe this is it, right?
