There is no need to delve into whether tomatoes are vegetables or fruits, because the taste of tomatoes determines that they can be eaten directly as a fruit or as a vegetable to make various dishes. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sour and sweet, both fleshy and juicy, the refreshing taste and rich in vitamins have also destined tomatoes to become an indispensable delicacy on the tables of people all over the world.

There is an interesting and strange thing about tomatoes, although Chinese tomatoes came from the West, but in terms of the beginning of eating and popularization, the East seems to have preceded the West by many years.

When European navigators first saw tomatoes in South America, they saw that they had a bright color and a bitter taste, and judging from the biological cognition of the time, this kind of thing was poisonous.

When tomatoes were first introduced to Europe, they were used as a flower-like ornamental plant, and it is said that aristocratic men and women at the time gave each other fruit-bearing tomato seedlings as an expression of mutual affection.

Therefore, tomatoes were named "love fruit" at that time. When the missionaries came to the East with the seeds of tomatoes, they were perhaps romantic.

But the Chinese are strong here, no matter what, they have the courage to be the first person to eat, and Li Shizhen, a great medical scientist in the Ming Dynasty, tasted a hundred herbs, which is just a typical representative of those bold foodies in ancient China.

It is precisely because of this character of the Chinese that the world's greatest and colorful food civilization has been created.

Whenever Chinese food is mentioned, the heart of crooked nuts is envious and jealous, which shows how happy it is to be a Chinese.

Yang Huairen looked at the ten tomatoes that had begun to darken in color, and couldn't help but complain that Zhao Xu, a kid, didn't know how to be blessed in the midst of blessings, and spoiled food in front of a chef, which was simply a crime.

Spit and complain, Yang Huairen can't do anything about Zhao Xu, after all, he is the emperor.

In order not to waste these tomatoes, Yang Huairen decided to teach Zhao Xu the correct posture of eating tomatoes on the spot. It seems that it is too late to use them to cook now, and a chef like Yang Huairen, who is strict with his cooking skills, will not use ingredients that are about to rot.

So what about the rest? Only cold salad. Yang Huairen took a large bowl of fruit, poured the fruit aside, threw all the tomatoes into the big bowl, and then used a large pear to mash the already soft tomatoes directly.

Then he ordered a chamberlain to fetch honey, poured half a bowl of honey into it, and threw the big smashed pear into it, and finally stirred it with a spoon, and it became a fruit salad of tomatoes, pears and honey.

He handed it to Zhao Xu, "Eat." ”

Zhao Xu looked at Yang Huairen with an expression of disbelief, "This, this, this...... Didn't you say that tomatoes should be scrambled with eggs to be delicious? ”

"Listen to who farts, tomatoes are delicious, it's easy and direct to eat like this, I don't believe you can taste it."

Zhao Xu looked at the tomato sauce in the big bowl that was pounded by Yang Huairen, at least this appearance really didn't look delicious. But since it's all like this, it's a pity to throw it away if you don't taste it, so it's better to try it.

He frowned and reluctantly dug a spoonful, squeezed his eyes into his mouth, and then smiled. Cold tomatoes are not a good dish, but they are simple and direct, and they stimulate the appetite.

Yang Huairen looked at Zhao Xu's sweet eating, and finally drank all the juice in the big bowl, and said goodbye to you kid is the emperor, a few tomatoes that are about to rot, you still eat like this, it is really a turtle.

"Hey, okay, don't lick it, it's a bit of official prestige, okay? Wait for tomorrow, I will personally order someone to bring you another basket, and you can eat as you like. ”

"Okay, just let my fourth uncle bring me into the palace."

"Don't, but don't look for your fourth uncle, that old boy is a chicken thief, what is going on from his hands, at least two layers of skin, or I will order someone to send it to the palace gate for you, you send a little father-in-law to wait tomorrow morning."

In just such a sentence, Yang Huairen's original plan to send ten more tomatoes to Zhao Xu turned into a basket, and Yang Huairen felt that he was a bit of a loser after speaking.

In order to prevent himself from leaking his mouth again and sending something away, Yang Huairen still hurriedly said goodbye, it is indeed very hanging to be able to talk and laugh with the emperor, but the most important thing after the coercion is to leave the scene of the pretending to be forced as soon as possible.

When I left the palace, I met Zhao Ji again, since I invited people to eat at my house, it was better to go on the same road.

Zhao Ji politely invited Yang Huairen to take his carriage, Yang Huairen looked at his own horse-drawn small broken car, and then looked at the luxury carriage drawn by four horses in the Duanwang Mansion, this is simply the gap between the small van and the Maserati, there is a good car to sit on, why not sit?

Yang Huairen got into Zhao Ji's carriage with a big grin, and sat in the right seat when he entered the carriage. Zhao Ji walked into the carriage and saw that Yang Huairen had already sat in the main seat, so he was not unhappy at all, but sat on the side seat with a smile on his face.

From a person's conduct in the world, we can see what kind of character a person is. Yang Huairen did not follow the etiquette between the host and the guest and deliberately sat on the main seat, in order to see if Zhao Ji, this kid, was a person who really had the city in mind.

Now it seems that Yang Huairen's previous guess is indeed true, Zhao Ji really has an inscrutable temperament, and he has this kind of bearing at a young age, which is really not to be underestimated.

It's a pity why didn't he become a good emperor? However, Yang Huairen thought about it, Zhao Xu is now an adult, his temperament and style of acting are difficult to change, but the Zhao Ji in front of him is different, he is only eleven years old, if Yang Huairen can gradually change Zhao Ji's character in the next nine years, will there be any difference in the future?

Zhao Ji thought in his heart that Yang Huairen was really different, his grandmother seemed to appreciate his talent, and on the side of the fourth uncle and the emperor's brother, Yang Huairen was also a pivotal person, and now looking at his prodigal behavior, he was really not an ordinary person.

Yang Huairen once again verified a truth, a noble person like Zhao Ji is really a strange personality, and Zhao Hao and Zhao Xu are all the way, the more you don't respect them as noble people, just treat them like an ordinary friend, the more they feel willing to be close to you invisibly.

Zhao Ji also seems to be very interested in the question of whether tomatoes should be vegetables or fruits, Yang Huairen said in his heart In the eyes of buddies, you are the tomato now, it can be both a fruit and a vegetable, the key is to see how the buddy cooks.

Thinking of this, he suddenly burst into laughter.
