Chapter 455: Let's Taste It
"Huh? Really fake! Daniel Zhang and Xiaoju both questioned at the same time, isn't it so powerful, and they came up with it while talking?
In the kitchen of Rou Niang's house, a honeycomb coal stove burned red, the whole room was very warm, Daniel Zhang came in with a large wooden barrel, the bucket was filled with half a bucket of water, then Datong seemed to be light in his hands: "How can the young master get it now?" ”
"You pour the hot water from the kettle on the stove into the bucket and stir it with your hands to turn up the temperature of the water." After Daniel Zhang adjusted well, Li Dongsheng said again: "You sprinkle the water in the bucket in the water tank." ”
"Oh!" Daniel Zhang's biggest advantage is to listen to the command, and he will do whatever the young master says.
Rou Niang mother and daughter and Xiao Ju watched Daniel Zhang work with relish, the kitchen water tank was full of sand, the whole water tank was placed on the platform built by two stools, the water flowed down the sand, the bottom of the water tank was punched a hole, the water flowed out, and then was held by the wooden basin below.
Daniel Zhang's movements were very gentle, just like treating his own children, carefully pouring every corner of the sand according to Li Dongsheng's instructions, and then carefully checking the water tank and stove, and said to Daniel Zhang: "In the past few days, you will live here, you must keep the fire of the stove cannot be extinguished, and the room must not be too cold!" Can it be done? ”
"Yes, young master, I will definitely do it!" Daniel Zhang was excited and didn't know what to say, the young master is really a good person, he found such a good excuse for me.
Master Li ,,,, "Rou Niang's mother is very embarrassed, she is a widow, what is it if a man comes in.
"This is the money-making plan I just thought of, you may not be very good at a woman, just let him live in the kitchen and watch, if it succeeds, then you will not have to worry about eating and drinking in the future! He is my family, and my character is guaranteed by me, and it will definitely not be bad for you! Li Dongsheng hurriedly said. I have been shouting in my heart, Daniel Zhang, I can only do this, and it will depend on your performance in the future.
Li Dongsheng and Xiaoju turned around and left. In the next few days, the various officials in Yiwu took turns to feast, only Xiaoju went to Rouniang's house from time to time to take a look, watching Daniel Zhang add fuel to the honeycomb coal stove, so that the room has been kept at a relatively high temperature.
In this way, until the third day, there were small dirt bags on the surface of the sand, and Xiao Ju hurriedly dragged Li Dongsheng over. Li Dongsheng splashed the bulging sand to the side, revealing the white and tender buds below, and the yellow and tender cotyledons on the top were still covered with green buds, which were very common mung bean sprouts in later generations.
"Wow!" Xiao Ju and Rou Niang both let out exclamations.
"It worked!" Li Dongsheng looked at the mung bean sprouts, and his heart was also happy. A few days ago, I saw the soybeans that Xiaoju ate, and thought that there were no vegetables at the banquet at the post station, so Li Dongsheng thought about making this bean sprout. I originally thought that the Tang Dynasty would have this thing, because this sprout is not too difficult, it is to maintain the temperature and regular watering. Who knows, there really isn't. In ancient times, it was really difficult to eat some greenery in winter.
Li Dongsheng and Daniel Zhang took out the bean sprouts from the bucket together, the bottom under the bucket is movable, you can take it off directly, a layer of sand and a layer of beans, and finally count a basket.
Xiao Ju looked at the bean sprouts, her eyes were full of stars: "Young master, how to eat this?" ”
"Whatever you want, you can fry it, you can mix it cold." Li Dongsheng was also very happy, he succeeded in trying it, and the people of Datang would have the same ability to make a living in the future.
Rou Niang said crisply: "Uncle Zhang, will you burn this thing?" ”
"Uh, I won't, but our young master will!" Li Dongsheng glanced at Daniel Zhang, yes, the curve attack, has already taken down the children.
Since it has been done to the end, Li Dongsheng directly showed his hand, first fried a bean sprouts, and then mixed a cold one, when the crispy bean sprouts were put in his mouth, Rou Niang's mother already knew that this thing called bean sprouts would definitely be popular in the Tang Dynasty, just because it could appear in winter. "My lord, your idea is to directly use large barrels to make large quantities and then take them out and sell them?"
Li Dongsheng looked at this beautiful woman, and sighed in his heart that Daniel Zhang had picked up a treasure: "Yes, when this bean sprout comes out, you don't want to go to the street to peddle it, and directly arrange Daniel Zhang to talk to various restaurants and let them bid." And it's also a vegetable, and the colder the weather, the better it sells and the higher the price! ”
"Then how do you let the restaurants in the city know about this sprout?"
"Mountain people have their own tricks!"
The next day, Li Dongsheng invited the county order and the following county and the main box to eat at the post station, the meat and vegetables in front of him are not to be discussed, and the wine has been three rounds, Li Dongsheng said with a smile: "Thank you for your support to my tea division, I have a new dish, please try it!" ”
At this time, Daniel Zhang came out with a pot of vegetables. "What kind of dish is this, so fragrant?" The county order is also a person at the top of the food chain in this era, but he has never smelled this fragrance, and this fragrance is particularly attractive, just this trace of taste has made him drool a little. The people below are the same, their noses are twitching.
The pot was placed on the table, and inside it was a strange vegetable, no more than a few inches long, and each one was crystal clear, and it looked extremely beautiful.
"Master Li, what is this?" The county magistrate asked curiously.
"It's called bean sprouts, and it's a freshly grown vegetable! Please try it! ”
The county order was attracted by this fragrance, and it was not polite to listen to what Li Dongsheng said, so he picked up a few chopsticks and put them in his mouth, fragrant, crispy, tender, and there was a bit of sour taste in the refreshing taste, and there should be vinegar in it, so that people want to eat it again after eating.
"It tastes good, it's delicious!" The county commander took a bite and praised loudly. He was born wealthy, and he was a parent official in a place, and he was well-informed, but it was the first time he had eaten such food.
The county and the main body are also unable to stop the chopsticks after tasting them, and a pot of vinegar bean sprouts will soon bottom out. Everyone put down their chopsticks and looked at Li Dongsheng who was smiling, and said embarrassedly: "Lord Li, forgive me, the main thing is that this is so delicious, you can't stop the chopsticks if you're not careful!" ”
"Out of the way, out of the way! What do you think of this sprout? ”
"Not bad! Crystal clear, is for the top grade! ”
"The taste is refreshing, and it is a good vegetable! It's cold, and it's hard to find! ”
The county commander's eyes are poisonous: "Lord Li's cooking method of this bean sprout is new, right?" ”
Li Dongsheng said with a smile: "Sure enough, it is a unique vision, this is my newly invented stir-fried dish." ”。
"Master Li has a lot of opportunities, and he still has time to work eating, admire!" The county magistrate didn't know whether to praise or ridicule, so he said this.
"There's no way, this is made by the little lady who my guard's eyes on, he is a family with me, and only I came forward to help her promote!" Li Dongsheng said with a smile: "The vegetables in winter are just for everyone to taste!" ”
