Listening to my clear thinking and endless tirade, Lin Yi next to him was already full of admiration, and kept nodding his head in agreement, it seems that he has been completely impressed by me.

It's no wonder that these fresh terms in my mouth alone are enough for him to learn for a few years, and what I haven't shaken out is not enough for him to learn for a lifetime.

As far as the name of this 'Yunnan Jiangwutang' is concerned, although it is suspected of plagiarizing future generations, it is not only in line with the current geographical environment, but also high-end and high-end, so it cannot but be said to be the best choice.

Then, I explained the list of people who were invited to the banquet tonight, in addition to Lin Qingliang, Qian Shitang, Jian Zheng, He Shoujie, Lin Yi, Li Hui, Lian Jun, Zhuang Qian, and Yue Chang all participated, counting me exactly ten people.

After arranging these affairs, I looked at my watch, and it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon, and if I didn't prepare for the banquet, it would be too late.

I hurriedly asked Lin Huan to go to the inner house to inform Wanru, and asked her to prepare a table of banquets immediately, and especially explained that Master Ben should cook a few dishes himself, and let them prepare some chickens, sheep, pigs, cows and other things and cooking materials, and I will go back to do it after a while.

In fact, when it comes to cooking, I am a standard expert, and when I was a child, my parents were very busy with business, so they didn't care about me at all. At first, I was still dealing with eating, and then my personal requirements were high, and gradually I learned to stir-fry and cook, and when I grew up, I went further, although I couldn't reach the level of those special chefs, but the cuisines of Sichuan, Shandong, Guangdong, and Shanghai can also be made on dozens of dishes that are not the same, as for the taste! It is even more praised by the audience!

These days, a bird is about to fade out of my mouth, the food in this era is unremarkable, and I, a person who loves chili peppers, have been strong and endured.

Alas! Think about the fact that it will take three or four hundred years for chili peppers to spread from South America to China! I had no choice but to die of this heart.

However, tonight, I will solemnly cook a few dishes, although nominally to entertain others, but in fact it can be regarded as a treat for myself!

Sort out the rest of the official business and arrange it properly, I hurriedly came to the inner house, just arrived at the kitchen door, and saw that it was like being busy with the two maids Caifeng and Caidie there.

Seeing me appear at the door of the kitchen as promised, it was like a long sigh of relief, and he came forward with a smile and teased: "The concubine just heard a word that our Xuanfu envoy will cook in person tonight, is there such a thing?" The concubine has never heard of an official having this ability! Since the official is so interested, the concubine will reluctantly give you a start, and if there is anything else to prepare, please ask the marshal to come down, and tonight you can let the concubine be full of blessings! ”

All right! Speak sarcastically and thornily, this is a typical refusal to trust! Twenty-three years old, when have I ever been so despised, hehe! After a while, I will let you know that Lord Ma still has three eyes.

I sighed, deliberately smiled bitterly and said, "Who made me interested and boasted about Haikou without paying attention!" I'm afraid I'm going to be embarrassed this time. ”

"Huh! However, since this official has already boasted about Haikou, he can't break his word and get fat, so let me give it a try, maybe it will bring you unexpected surprises! ”

I poked my head in and asked Li Guidao, who was in charge, "Are all the things I asked you to prepare ready?" Then Li Gui hurriedly said: "Third master, don't worry, in addition to what you have at home, the small ones went out to buy more ingredients, whether they are flying in the sky, running on the ground, or swimming in the water, at least there is no problem in making thirty dishes." But hey, hey! This dish? It's still small to do well. ”

I hurriedly smiled and waved my hand, and said, "You don't have to be busy, you can clean up all the meat and vegetables for me, and the work of this spoon will be handed over to me." Time is limited, I'll make a few dishes first, and you can get busy with the rest. ”

As soon as I entered the kitchen, I realized that although the water and land were complete, the rivers and lakes were perfect, and there were chickens, ducks, fish, fish, turtles, shrimps, crabs, and everything.

But there is nothing to do with condiments in this era, I looked at the cooking condiments in the kitchen and shook my head.

Alas! In ancient China, especially before the Tang Dynasty, I heard that there was no such thing as stir-frying, and it is said that edible oil, spices and other things were gradually prepared after the Song Dynasty. In this case, it can only be made with local materials and tailor-made

。 Now I have chicken, carrots, although there are no peanuts, it is not bad to make a simple version of Kung Pao chicken, there is no chili pepper and mustard, then make a mustard shredded chicken, other garlic carp is counted as one, mutton radish soup, Beijing sauce shredded meat are all good dishes I am good at, and it doesn't take much effort to make.

Fortunately, the materials are quite complete, that is, the edible oil is almost, at this time the rich and noble people still eat rapeseed oil, ordinary people can not eat it, after all, peanuts have not yet reached China!

As soon as I said it, I took off my official robe, changed into a short coat, and started stir-frying with my own hands for the first time since I crossed. The person next to me seemed to be quite interested in watching me make a fool of myself at first, but after seeing my exquisite and skilled spoon turning skills, the expression on his face became more and more solemn, his eyes flashed, and his tongue was dark, as if he had seen a strange alien creature.

I instructed Li Guishun to prepare the dishes, and after half an hour of busy work, the six dishes with good color and fragrance were completed.

As if seeing that the stir-fry had come out of the pot, she couldn't wait to suck the fragrance of the dishes and rushed up, she couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of chicken in Kung Pao Chicken and put it in her mouth, chewed it slowly for a while, and then 'tsk' and screamed.

While chewing slowly, she said with a fluttering eyebrow: "Ho! I didn't expect wow! My great official, your skills are almost catching up with the imperial chef in the palace compound! Well! It's really a unique flavor, you haven't shown this skill in the past two years, which really impresses the concubine! ”

I smiled, busy hehe, hey hey, let the taste of a woman's praise is wonderful, and I have the opportunity to show my true ability.

I looked at my watch, it was very close to the time when the guests came, I handed over the stir-fry work to Li Gui, and hurriedly beckoned us to return to the room together, changed into casual clothes at home, and arranged for my family to place a large round table under the vine trellis in the courtyard.

This May weather is still in the courtyard, eating and drinking is more refreshing, and it would be better if I could have a few more beers.

This year, the Xuanfu envoy did not dare to be late for a treat, and as soon as the dishes and cups were packed up here, all the people over there arrived.

I hurriedly beckoned everyone to sit down, pushed Lin Qingliang to sit as the guest of honor, Qian Shitang to sit as the deputy guest, and the others sat in turn, and ten people happened to sit at a full table.

It is like preparing two jars of good wine from the capital, although the mellow is not as good as Lin Qingliang's self-brewed wine, but it is also an aged wine in the cellar, and the smell of the fragrant wine feels quite good.

As if arranged by himself, the dishes were served at a price in a short time. It was as if I had come forward in person, and I was proud to introduce the dishes I had made myself.

When everyone heard this, they all showed a look of disbelief, men are still cooking these days? And is it a dish made by the champion of the Han Dynasty who is the ambassador of Xuanfu?

Except for Lin Qingliang, everyone's face flashed with suspicion, after all, in this era, the work of stir-frying is a cheap servant! For these usually pampered people, this kind of thing is simply unimaginable.

In order to make sure that Wanru was not deceived, I had to blush, like a child who had done something wrong, to introduce the names and origins of these dishes to everyone one by one, and to invite everyone to taste my masterpieces.

Even so, everyone stretched out their chopsticks in disbelief and put these delicious clips with good color and flavor in their mouths. With the noisy and chaotic sound of chewing, a burst of applause soon erupted.

The response was so enthusiastic that I was a little skeptical that these people were suspected of being sycophants.

The sanctimonious Qian Shitang kept putting vegetables in his mouth, and said vaguely: "I can't think of wow! I can't imagine that there is such a delicious food in the world, I can't imagine it! Xia Guan only thought that the handsome man was the brilliant Wen Kui, but he didn't expect that there would be such a profound means in cooking, and he only enjoyed such exquisite and exquisite delicacies today, hehe! Dashuai should have come to Yunnan a few years earlier! ”

"Hey, hey! Speaking of which, the old man has really lived for so many years in vain. ”
