Several women in the Shangshi Bureau also saluted when they saw Chen Fang, and Chen Fang asked them to be exempted.

Chen Fang noticed that all the women in the Shangshi Bureau were women. It is very different from the court dramas made in later generations.

Probably because this place belongs to the harem! Let the eunuch cook in the Shangshi Bureau, it seems that this setting is awkward when you think about it. As for men, Chen Fang may be a special case, and it is really a coincidence that he can enter the palace.

Chen Fang followed Shang Shi Dingyu all the way in, this Shang Shi Bureau was much larger than the simple kitchen in the Yeting Palace, and it was also much more magnificent.

There are several storage rooms in the food bureau, and there are various grains, vegetables, melons and fruits in different categories.

Chen Fang finally saw tomatoes here, the Americas were discovered, and the crops there flowed from the Northern Han Dynasty into the Tang Dynasty, so it is not surprising that this tomato appeared here, but obviously tomatoes are considered a very high-grade ingredient at this time, and there is no such thing as Yeting Palace.

The place where the meat is stored is mostly mutton and venison, but there are also large pieces of beef. Chen Fang even saw tiger meat and bear paws with fur, and some Chen Fang didn't even know each other.

Rare beasts, delicacies from the mountains and seas, it is estimated that at this time, looking at the world, there are few places that can be compared with here.

There are many things that Chen Fang has only heard before, and this is the first time he has seen them.

Chen Fang didn't think about making these things, so he just looked at it.

After looking around, sure enough, there is no pork, and the people in this palace don't eat pork.

In the small storage room where the spices were stored, Chen Fang finally found cumin, star anise and pepper, which were indeed more complete than those in the Yeting Palace. There are some spices that should not have appeared in this era, but due to the butterfly effect, they also appeared at this time.

After taking a turn in the storage room, Shangshi Dingyu had already gathered all the people in this Shangshi Bureau, a total of more than a dozen people, this is not counting handymen, if you count them, there must be dozens of people. I heard Shang Shi Dingyu say that there are still a few people who are responsible for supper and night duty.

Being an emperor is happiness, and there are so many people just preparing meals for him every day.

This is just cooking, collecting and transporting ingredients to the palace, bringing food from the Shangshi Bureau to the emperor's bedroom, and serving the emperor's meal, which requires more manpower.

After reading the ingredients, the people in the Shangshi Bureau were waiting for Chen Fang's instructions, and Taohong brought a chair for Chen Fang to sit down.

Chen Fang was already thinking about how to make today's meal.

Chen Fang gave up the precious ingredients, and he didn't know how to deal with them, after all, Chen Fang was not a chef before he crossed over, he just cooked for himself, and it was all home-cooked meals.

Second, Chen Fangjian saw some ingredients for the first time, not to mention how to make them, such as bear paws and tiger meat. He lived in an era where this thing could not be bought and sold at all.

What exactly is to be done? This is a problem.

This meal was made for Wu Meiniang, who was a native of Wenshui in Bingzhou, that is, a native of Shanxi later. And Wu Meiniang has been living in Chang'an Taiji Palace since she entered the palace. It can be said that Wu Meiniang is a thorough northerner, so Chen Fang chose pasta for the staple food.

In the pasta, Chen Fang finally chose dumplings, dumplings have a long history in China, originally pioneered by the divine doctor Zhang Zhongjing, used for medicinal purposes, until now, dumplings are not much different from later generations.

There is no difference in the appearance of the dumplings, but the dumpling filling can be made in an article.

Mutton, shrimp, leeks, mushrooms...

With Chen Fang's way of processing, the dumplings made are definitely much tastier than those eaten by the royal family now.

The staple food is determined, and it is the dish that comes down, because this time Wu Meiniang is mainly because of rapeseed oil, so Chen Fang went to the imperial dining room to make a meal, so the dish must be fried.

Then home cooking, to bring out the characteristics of rapeseed oil, home cooking is obviously the most suitable. It just so happens that scrambled eggs with tomatoes can be tried today.

Haha, Wu Meiniang eats scrambled eggs with tomatoes, thinking about this scene, Chen Fang slapped his ass and decided.

"What's the taboo of the mother?"

"Nope! The mother's appetite has always been good. ”

"That's good, I've already thought about today's meal here, now make a list for everyone to prepare."

Tao Hong had already taken paper and pen there, Chen Fang splashed ink all the way, and the dragon flew and the phoenix danced, writing a menu like writing a prescription.

I am afraid that the people in the food bureau are unknown, so after each dish, Chen Fang writes down the ingredients and styles needed. For example, you need to shred, you need to dice, and so on.

Dingyu went with a large group of cooks from the Shangshi Bureau, and Chen Fang took a washed tomato and took a bite directly.

"The taste is a little heavier than that of later generations! It's a bit astringent. ”

Chen Fang muttered in his heart, the current tomatoes are still a little different from the later generations, after all, the tomatoes of the later generations are the result of several improvements and selections.

After eating the tomatoes, Chen Fang had already washed his hands and started to be busy, the dumpling fillings need to be prepared by Chen Fang himself, although the mutton is diced, and the fresh shrimp can be removed from the line and shelled, so that the people of the Shang Food Bureau can do it, but the seasoning needs Chen Fang to come in person.

The food bureau was suddenly in full swing, and Peach Red volunteered to burn the fire, and after a few words from the son yesterday, Peach felt that her skills in burning the fire were suddenly much higher.

And it is getting closer and closer to Chongyang, the weather is getting colder and colder, the peach is afraid of the cold, and the stove is the warmest.

Of course, the main reason is that no other live rosé can do it. Can't be a childe working, she'll watch from the sidelines!

Everyone in this Shangshi Bureau has a more detailed division of labor, and there is Shangshi Dingyu to help Chen Fang deploy, which is much faster than yesterday in the Yeting Palace.

After the dumpling filling is adjusted, there are naturally people from the Shangshi Bureau who are busy, and there is no need for Chen Fang to do it himself, and they will always make dumplings.

The rapeseed oil was boiling hot in the pot, and Peach took a deep breath, Chen Fang watched the girl's desperate inhalation, do you think of yourself as a humanoid range hood?

Chen Fang complained in his heart, refined the peppercorns into oil, and put the marinated mutton in his hands into the pot.

Fried mutton with green onions, let Wu Meiniang eat this different mutton.

The boiled mutton he has eaten in the past few days has made Chen Fang miserable, and the smell of mutton seems to be pasted on his body, lingering, and it is time for the ancients to see how the mutton is made.

Stir-fried on high heat, the aroma of the mutton itself and the aroma of high-temperature pepper oil are perfectly integrated. Chen Fang took it out, and after a while, the mutton still needs to be returned to the pot and stir-fried with green onions and ginger, and he has to prepare other dishes.

Mapo tofu, let the mother know that tofu can do this.

Salt and pepper mushrooms are simple, easy to eat, and a good choice as a snack.

Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, Chen Fang's favorite, the perfect combination of eggs and tomatoes, an incomparable classic of oriental cuisine. Chen Fang's taste buds began to stir. As for the peach next to her, she swallowed her saliva uncontrollably.

Several cooks from the Shangshi Bureau also kept smelling the aroma of the vegetables, and their faces were full of brilliance. You can read the surprise in their hearts from their expressions.
