Chapter 271

"It's just a spice, and while I don't know what kind of condiment benzoin can be used for, it can't be anything like a mystery. That, that big brother He, what's wrong with you? Lan Meng first glared at Ah Qiu hatefully, thinking that this thing was questioning her professional knowledge, but Lan Meng also felt that He Jinghui's state was a little wrong.

"I, I'm fine, Miss Blue, what is the cumin in your hand, well, is this benzoin only a little bit?" He Jinghui finally came back to his senses, sniffed the familiar smell deeply, and then asked Lan Meng.

"Well, these are just samples of spices, and there are quite a few of them in the Western Regions. For example, this benzoin is usually put on when making meat, which can give the meat a unique fragrance......" Lan Meng nodded and said.

"I see, then there must be a lot of this kind of resting fennel in the Western Regions, or over there in Windy City, right?" He Jinghui said with a twinkle in his eyes.

Lan Meng nodded and said as a matter of course. "Yes, after all, there are few fruits and vegetables in the Western Regions, they eat more meat, and benzoin fennel is used more, so there are often merchants from the west of the Western Regions who come to sell it, and even in the Western Regions, there are people who grow this kind of benzoin fennel."

"Could it be that Brother He, you like this seasoning very much? The inside of this wooden box is just the same, I have three or five catties of each spice there, if you like it, I will bring it to you. ”

He Jinghui originally thought that cumin was just a little bit, and he was afraid that it would not be enough to even roast ten skewers of meat, but now when he heard that there were three or five catties, he couldn't help jumping up excitedly. "That's great, Sister Lan Meng, thank you so much, with this good thing, when the time comes, brother, I'll make you a taste of my specialty secret skewers."

"Okay, then Brother He, you wait, I'll go and get it for you." Lan Meng saw He Jinghui's happy appearance, and he was very happy in his heart, he finally did something to make Brother He happy, and seeing Brother He's excited appearance, his heart was also very happy.

As soon as Lan Meng left, Ah Qiu came over. "Young Master, is this thing that good?"

"Have you ever eaten a barbecue?" He Jinghui was still staring at the few benzoin fennel in his hand affectionately, and asked without raising his head.

"Of course I've eaten it, roast pig, roasted lamb chops, these small ones are very fond of eating." Ah Qiu smashed his mouth, and when he thought of those delicious foods, he felt that the saliva in his mouth began to secrete disobediently and quickly.

"Do you know that if the roasted meat we eat can at least double the deliciousness of the meat after adding this benzoin fennel, then do you think this thing is good or bad?"

Goodo...... Ah Qiu couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and stared directly at the benzoin fennel in He Jinghui's hand. "Isn't it, using them to make those flavors so tempting?"

"I don't believe it, right, now, Young Master Ben has given you a task, go, sell me a sheep, remember, fatten the sheep, the fatter, the better, let the butcher slaughter it, cut all the meat into cubes of this size for me, and then bring it over, by the way, let them get me some carbon......"

With He Jingxuan's instructions, the back house of the county government became busy, and a vote of servants was instructed by He Jinghui to make the group turn, some went to find carbon, some went to buy three rectangular thin iron sheets and made wooden supports, and some went to slaughter chickens, and then shaved and eviscerated.

And after getting the benzoin sent by Lan Meng, He Jinghui asked people to get a stone mill and let people clean it over and over again, until the stone mill did not have the slightest smell, and then took out about half a catty of benzoin fennel, and let people use the stone mill to grind carefully.

"Brother He, why do you grind it so finely, isn't it good to use it so directly? When I was in the Western Regions, when I was cooking meat dishes, I usually had to grind them a little bit at most, and I didn't need to grind them too finely. ”

"That's because after this benzoin fennel is ground fine enough, and then mixed with other seasonings, the taste will be even better, don't worry, you Brother He and I are veterans in skewers, and skewers are definitely veterans, just listen to my orders." He Jinghui said with the posture of an old driver.

After slaughtering, a large pot of mutton cut into cubes was brought to He Jingxuan's small courtyard, and when he saw the mutton weighing more than ten catties, He Jinghui touched his stomach, hmm...... Such a delicacy cannot be enjoyed exclusively. "That Ah Qiu, you call someone to find Lin Wanghu and tell me about that virtuous brother, just say that young master, I have made an extremely wonderful delicacy in the mansion, and ask him to get some good wine."

"Young Master, just you and Lin Gongzi, I'm afraid we won't be able to eat so much......" Ah Qiu looked at the two fat chickens that had been slaughtered and marinated in a pot, plus the mutton of a whole sheep, there were twenty-six or seven catties of meat here.

"That's right, Ah Qiu, if you go to Wu's Mansion on my behalf, you will say that I will invite Miss Wu to come over to taste the delicious food, and also invite Miss Wu to come over for a get-together." He Jinghui slapped his thigh, in addition to Lin Wanghu in Ruolan County, there is also Wu Meier, a confidante, how can he not call her?

Everything has been arranged, and He Jinghui began to put together an authentic barbecue rack, of course, the standard barbecue rack of the very popular Xinjiang mutton kebab stall.

Three iron plates were put together, and the wooden shelves that had been made were erected, and then bricks were stuffed into the places that came into contact with the iron plates to insulate the heat and prevent them from being too hot and destroying the wooden shelves.

As soon as the preparations here were completed, and the charcoal fire had just been lit in the barbecue rack, Lin Wanghu rushed over with a jar of fine wine. "I said Lao He, what kind of delicious food did you make, ouch, what the hell is this, it's still smoking."

"This is used to grill meat skewers for a while, come on, come and sit down, I said Lao Lin, is this wine good?" He Jinghui saw the high-spirited Lin Wanghu, and the smile on his face couldn't help but increase a little.

It can be seen that most of the family property has been taken back into Ye's hands, and the spirit of the family has recovered, naturally, Lin Wanghu's mood is also much better, at least the spirit is far stronger than when He Jinghui came back from the Western Regions to see Lin Wanghu again.

"Don't worry, listen to me say that there is something delicious, I rushed to the old Wang's house in the east of the city as soon as possible, and got this more than ten years of aging, absolutely not mixed with water, just such a jar, it is enough to ask me for ten taels of silver, grandma's ......" After Lin Wanghu put the wine jar on the ground, he grinned and moved the hand that was strangled with red marks.

He Jinghui walked closer, pulled out the altar stopper, took a deep breath, and a mellow and soft aroma of wine suddenly came to his nose. "It's really good, ten taels of silver is worth it."

"Damn, I said Lao He, what are you doing here, you got so much mutton and chicken, you won't tell me that this is the delicious food we eat today, right?" Lin Wanghu couldn't help grinning after seeing the mutton and chicken placed over there.

"What, when did you kid not like to eat meat, could it be that eating, drinking, and having fun these days are too greasy, and you are going to change to a vegetarian diet today, right?" He Jinghui glared at the goods angrily. "If you want to be a vegetarian, go back quickly, and stay with the wine."

"Don't think about it, since I'm here, I'm sitting back and waiting to eat and drink with peace of mind." Lin Wanghu would not be fooled, and sat on the couch set aside with a hippie smile, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea.

Seeing this guy's behavior, He Jinghui shook his head helplessly, ignored him anymore, and continued to mix the seasoning of the barbecue.

Although there are no chili peppers, after He Jinghui asked Lan Meng'er, he personally tasted the cornel powder that had been dried and ground into powder, which had a spicy taste, which was very similar to chili peppers.

This made He Jinghui full of endless confidence in blending the taste of the past, and after a lot of effort, Wu Meier also came, wearing a long water blue dress, Wu Meier, who was combing her cloud bun, took the lead, and the yellow bird next to her followed behind her with a small jar.

After seeing He Jinghui who was busy, Wu Meier smiled. "Brother He is going to do it himself today?"

"That's nature, I'm going to get you a new barbecue today, I promise you haven't eaten it in the past, hey, what are you talking about, Huangli, won't it also be a bar?"

"Of course it is, and it has been treasured by our master for many years, and the young lady went to get it herself." Ah Qiu took over the small jar that could only hold two or three catties of wine at most, and Huang Li proudly raised his chin and said. "I've heard that there aren't many of these wines, even Ouchi."
