Chapter 369: It's really fragrant

These melons and fruits are freshly picked and delicious!

I've eaten almost, but I still feel a little hungry in my stomach, after all, this fruit and melon are not full, and I have done so many things in the morning, which really makes people tired enough and hungry enough.

Emperor Hongzhi even felt that his chest was attached to his back, but it was inconvenient to say anything, so he naturally waited for Fang Jifan to go to Zhang Luo and make arrangements.

Finally, the meal finally came up.

Seven or eight tables, dozens of benches, and no special chairs.

Emperor Hongzhi sat on a bench alone, and the others were not so lucky, two or three people crowded the bench, and some of them couldn't show it.

Usually, these officials and gentlemen are all sitting on official hat chairs, and they have a good eye, but now they are crowded together with their colleagues, and they can't help but look a little embarrassed, but ...... After getting used to it a little, there is also a different experience, anyway, everyone is not much better, and they are not afraid of losing face.

The most exciting thing is the serving.

This dish was delivered, and many people's eyes lit up: "Eh...... Eh...... This is the fish caught by the minister, it is this one, although it is steamed, the face is all wrong, but the minister still recognizes it. ”

I fished!

It's a small thing, but it seems to be satisfying.

So the others also let go: "This bracken was dug by the minister......"

This is a painstaking digging by myself, think about how embarrassing it is, in order to pick, covered with mud stars, it is really not easy.

When a plate of mashed potatoes was also delivered, Emperor Hongzhi was also interested, with a little joy on his face, and pointed to the mashed potatoes with chopsticks and said: "This is what I and Liu Qing, Shen Qingjia and others personally dug out of the ground, come and taste it." ”

In fact, everyone is really hungry, and just smelling the tempting aroma of the vegetables makes their index fingers move.

In the end, the finale was served at the end.

Well...... A dish invented by Fang Jifan himself.

Kill the pig dish!

This pig killing dish is famous in later generations, it is a famous dish in the Northeast, it was originally a kind of stew held by the rural year every year close to the year when the pig is killed, in a large pot, directly with all the parts of the pig are thrown into the pot, there are pork bones, lean meat, pork belly, pig blood, pig intestines, pig kidneys and so on.

Suddenly, the smell of meat permeated the room.

Fang Jifan said excitedly: "This is the pig ...... that the minister saw killed with his own eyes."

When everyone heard the word 'pig', they suddenly became a little taboo, and they couldn't help but look at Emperor Hongzhi.

Later generations, with false rumors, always think that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is surnamed Zhu, so he is not allowed to eat pork, which is actually a big misunderstanding, but although it is allowed, it is always the shouting of killing pigs and killing pigs, it seems to be ...... It's always a little ...... Weird ......

Fortunately, this person is like this, and many people don't go to their hearts.

In the same way, some people say that this is called something else, meaning something, Xiang Zhuang dancing the sword, intended to Pei Gong, and may even harbor evil intentions and ill intentions.

But some people say it, that is, young people are not sensible; People who have brain diseases are really sad; This kid doesn't know how to read words and looks; Fairy tales are taboo and the like.

Fang Jifan obviously belongs to the latter!

But...... Seeing this pig-killing dish served, although they were very hungry, many people still frowned slightly.

You must know that the aristocracy rarely eats pork except for Dongpo meat.

The reason why Su Dongpo invented Dongpo meat and became popular is because the pork is fishy and difficult to eat, and Dongpo meat is different, it puts a lot of sauce, three catties of pork have to put two taels of green onions, two taels of sugar, and four taels of Shao wine, one or two ginger pieces, and three taels of soy sauce.

Therefore, in the Ming Dynasty, this Dongpo meat belonged to the series that the rich did not want to eat and the poor could not afford to eat.

Rich people, at most, use this dish to decorate, but they can choose from many dishes, so naturally this Dongpo meat is not rare.

As for the poor, I finally bought a few catties of meat and prepared to celebrate the New Year happily, and you still want me to buy sugar, wine, and sauces...... And it is still put into a large amount of meat, and these various ingredients are no longer cheaper than meat.

Because of a large number of ingredients, you can remove the fishy stuff in the pork, but in this era, the ingredients are actually considered luxury, many people can't even afford salt, they have to buy inferior salt mixed with sand, how can they still put so many ingredients to make a meal of meat?

In Daming, there are many people who eat sheep and raise sheep, and pigs, even in the countryside, are relatively rare.

Therefore, when everyone heard that it was pork, and it was pork stewed, they immediately ...... I don't feel interested anymore.

I couldn't help but look at this dish curiously...... This meat ...... But it feels a little strange.

Usually they have seen pork, pork is cheap, so when sacrificing to the saint Confucius, they often use cold pork, because it is cheap.

And it's the first time I've seen a pork stew like this, to be honest...... How does this entrance?

Everyone was silent, just silently watching the pig-killing dish.

This reaction had long been expected by Fang Jifan, and he secretly stabbed Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting in the same seat.

In fact, Zhu Houzhao is also very awkward, looking at this pork, he is also very daunting.

But...... This pork is really different from the pork they have seen before.

The ordinary pork at this time in the Ming Dynasty was similar to the so-called pork and mutton in later generations, all of which were lean with lean meat, but the pork in the urn in front of him was very fat.

After all, Fang Jifan cut them, so his temper will not be irritable, he will not run around, this pig's exercise is very small, almost just eat and sleep, sleep and eat, naturally he will be full of fat.

Looking at this piece of white flowers, Fang Jifan instigated Zhu Houzhao and said, "Your Highness will try it first." ”

Zhu Houzhao didn't expect the old party to point to himself.

Is this the righteousness of brotherhood? It's a harm to him.

He was a little reluctant to agree, but in front of his father and so many people, not to mention that everyone looked at him strangely, Zhu Houzhao had to bite the bullet, he carefully raised his chopsticks, and he looked like he was about to go to the execution ground.

At this time, Xiao Jing, who was standing aside and waiting, said: "Wait, use the silver needle first......"

Emperor Hongzhi shook his head and said, "Here, it's the same as in the palace, it's okay." ”

At this time, a piece of semi-fat and lean meat had already reached Zhu Houzhao's chopsticks, Zhu Houzhao gritted his teeth, and after making a lot of determination, he also happily stuffed the meat directly into his mouth.

He thought he would just swallow it in one gulp.

The old party is not kind.

He thought to himself, but ...... Gradually, his face became slightly strange.

This meat is actually ...... No fishy smell? Instead...... Got a strong aroma?

With a light bite, the fat in the fat meat is accompanied by the lean meat, and the taste is soft and flavorful, giving Zhu Houzhao a strange flavor.

In this era, in fact, there are almost no large pieces of fat, whether it is cattle, sheep, horses and pigs, they are all skin stained with fine meat or bones, Zhu Houzhao should be the first person to taste the kind of large fat in later generations.

Perhaps for later generations, the fat meat is too greasy and unpalatable.

But as everyone knows, for people who have never tasted fatty meat, this mouthful of fat taste is another taste that other meats can't bring.

Zhu Houzhao began to chew carefully, and his face became more and more weird.

I have to say that the quality of this meat, the more you chew, the more you feel the umami, compared to the slightly fishy mutton, compared to the horse meat, it seems that only donkey meat can be compared.

It's a pity that this donkey is a rare thing, and it can be used as animal power, and the price is also very expensive, and ordinary people are reluctant to eat it.

"It smells so good!" Zhu Houzhao changed a piece of meat from making him resist to chewing it carefully, this sentence was completely from the bottom of his heart.

It's really delicious, especially the rich aroma of meat, the meat is delicious, and the fat is smooth, and the most important thing is that Zhu Houzhao is hungry.

This bite of pig-killing dishes is really appetizing.

"It's delicious!" No matter what he does, it is inevitable that he will be a little pompous, but this is indeed his intuitive feeling.

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but look surprised.

Is the pork so delicious?

The other ministers still didn't dare to move their chopsticks, after all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had too many black records in the past, which made people feel unreliable, who knows if this is a prank with Fang Jifan and the others?

Zhu Houzhao's reaction naturally made Fang Jifan very satisfied, so Fang Jifan looked at Emperor Hongzhi with a smile and said, "Your Majesty can taste it." ”

Although it seemed to be delicious to see his son eating that meat, Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but twitch his old face when he heard Fang Jifan's words!

He glared at Fang Jifan, and in this look, it seemed to mean, Fang Jifan, what tricks do you want to play with the prince, otherwise, I will never spare you.

After all, Emperor Hongzhi was still that kind person, although he gave Fang Jifan enough threat, he was also half-convinced, but he still raised his chopsticks, found a piece of semi-fat and thin, and carefully stuffed it into his mouth.

As soon as this meat was eaten, Emperor Hongzhi was immediately shocked.

Unexpectedly...... Completely different from the pork stew he imagined?

Refreshing, delicious, tender, and lean meat with a bit of tendon, it is really unimaginable, just throw the ingredients into it and stew it indiscriminately, and almost no more ingredients are added, but deliberately use stew to show the tenderness and freshness of the meat, which is indeed incomparable to other meats.

Emperor Hongzhi's face gradually relaxed.

Call......

A bite of meat in the stomach, the appetite suddenly opened.

There is no shortage of delicacies in the palace, Emperor Hongzhi was amazed that just such an ingredient, just put a little salt, can have this taste, not to mention that he is really hungry, this rich taste, let him have a rare feeling of comfort.

Emperor Hongzhi finally couldn't help but say: "It's really fragrant." ”

Fang Jifan smiled, Emperor Hongzhi's words were what he needed most!

So he took the opportunity to say, "Your Majesty, this meat soup tastes better." ”

"Really?" Emperor Hongzhi laughed, he looked left and right and said, "The secretaries also taste it." Come, give me a bowl of meat soup. ”
