Chapter 296: Xiang Zhuang Dancing Sword
Since cooking has the word art, it means that the top food is actually no different from a work of art. The delicacies with all colors and flavors were presented by the gentlemen in white clothes and white hats, which made the generals present breathtaking.
"Wenjue, it's not that the old man is deliberately trying to trouble you, just say it directly, what kind of meat are you made of these delicacies, which makes you so reluctant." After tasting a delicacy, General Li finally couldn't bear to explode.
There are more than ten dishes in a row, although each dish can be called a delicacy in the world, but it is a pity that each dish is only a three-bite portion, and a big mouth like General Li can eat them all in one bite.
It's okay to eat once or twice, but every time it's just when you eat it and can't stop it, this intention can be punished by your heart.
"If Lord Wen is shy in his pocket, he still has a little wealth in his family, even if it is dragon meat, he can feed his colleagues." General Wang teased. This damn smell of sailing, but recently there has been a lot of money from these nobles, and now they are actually slamming the door and not even allowing them to eat a full meal.
"Food is indeed food, but it's just this amount........ Looking at the empty plate in front of him, Cao Bin couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. Participating in banquets, the more you eat, the fuller you get, but now it's better, but the more you eat, the hungrier you get.
Seeing the excitement in the hall, Zhao Lao Er said with a wry smile: "Wen Qing's family, as long as it is not too difficult to find food, I will serve more for the generals." The amount of money needed is all borne by the inner government. ”
"Your Majesty is too worried, in fact, the fresh meat used to make these dishes is not difficult to find, it's just ........ It's just ........ "Seeing that Zhao Lao Er actually wants to treat the east, he is also very helpless when he smells the sail, pork!" What is so hard to find, the pork in Guanlou Village has a backlog and cannot be sold.
"Wen Qing has any difficulties, although he said it bluntly." Seeing that Qihang looked embarrassed, Zhao Lao Er asked.
"Your Majesty, it's not that Weichen is unwilling to invite the generals to a full meal. Instead, these dishes are cooked with the latest stir-fry method, but the utensils in the imperial dining room in the palace are insufficient, and the only utensils are brought by Weichen from outside the palace. Wen Qihang explained.
This explanation, of course, smells Qihang's nonsense, cooking for more than a dozen people, in fact, it doesn't need many utensils for stir-frying. However, among the 100 students who are qualified chefs, only one has reached the level of art.
Although these dishes are claimed to be made by the gentlemen, only a month of training is a very rare thing for these gentlemen to be able to distinguish the seasoning and cook the dishes. If you want to achieve both color and flavor, without a few years of training, it is simply wishful thinking, unless someone is extremely talented in cooking.
"I see, that's a pity!" Zhao Lao Er sighed.
"Since it's a lack of equipment........ This is indeed a pity, it seems that we are really not blessed! General Li said regretfully. Although Wen Qihang can also be allowed to go back to Guanlou Village to get cooking utensils, but the time to go back and forth here, I am afraid that this banquet has already ended.
"Actually, they are all simple dishes, if General Li likes to eat them, it is better to go back to the house and ask someone to make them." Wen Qihang smiled and said with relief.
"Oh, Wen Jue is willing to give the secret recipe for the dish?" General Li was surprised.
"I made these dishes with my brothers and friends, so this secret recipe is naturally public." Wen Qihang couldn't help but smile and said.
"The old man admires." Old General Li couldn't help but clasp his fists and salute. This smell of sailing is really as rumored, he is a complete loser. To make a restaurant, sometimes all you need is a signature dish.
Nowadays, there are more than ten delicacies, which is simply sitting on a mountain of gold, but this Wen Qihang has actually taught all of them to others.
"Is this true?" General Wang was a little skeptical.
"Naturally, all brothers and friends can testify."
"But it's hard to find the meat in this dish?" General Wang picked up a piece of fried meat and tasted it. He'd eaten a number of dishes, but he had never tasted what kind of meat it was made of.
"I have already replied to Your Majesty just now, this meat is not hard to find. For example, the finely fried tenderloin that General Wang tasted just now was made of pork tenderloin that was only three months old. A pig, such a tenderloin, can only produce one catty. Wen Qihang raised a finger and said.
Burst!
As soon as he heard Qihang's words, General Wang couldn't help but squirt out all the fried meat in his mouth. He said angrily: "Lord Wen, you dare to let Your Majesty and I eat this kind of cheap meat!" ”
"It's made of pork!" Old General Li couldn't help but be surprised. As an old foodie for many years, in his impression, pork is a meat with a certain smell, otherwise how could the folk call it stinky meat. This is also an important reason why the nobles are reluctant to eat pork, and only those who are poor will use it to quench their cravings.
"Yes, it's made of pork." Wen Qihang nodded in affirmation: "But as long as it is handled well, there will no longer be a stench, but it will become a supreme delicacy." Even the mutton we eat regularly has a foul smell. ”
"Smell sail, you have bad intentions! You think you're the only smart person in the world, and you're a pig in this way! Do you think you can hide it from Your Majesty and the generals! General Wang scolded.
"There is no excuse for the sin that you want to add!" This damn guy must be Wang Bingchen's bastard's own family, just now this guy ate the most high, and now he is embarrassed to jump out to find fault!
"The recipes of the palace banquet have always had rules, even if you change the recipe without authorization, Your Majesty doesn't care, but you can't be so wanton." General Wang accused.
"General Wang is cautious!" The corners of his mouth curled slightly.
"Are you only allowed to do it, and no one is allowed to say it!" General Wang sneered.
"Hey, General Wang seems to be unaware, these dishes are not made by Benjue, but by brothers and friends, in order to show filial piety, they deliberately went to Benjue's mansion and studied hard for more than a month. Just to express my loyalty to Your Majesty, and to thank the generals for their many years of nurturing. Is this also wrong? "Even if these delicacies are not made by these gentlemen themselves, but picking vegetables, boiling water, and adding firewood, it is a contribution after all!
“........ You can use mutton! If it weren't for Wen Jue's instigation, why use these cheap meats! General Wang grinned.
Cheap meat with an open mouth and a closed mouth! You're a fucking bitch! Hearing Qihang's belly, he hugged his fist and saluted Zhao Laoer: "Don't hide it from Your Majesty, the reason why pork is used this time instead of mutton commonly used in palace banquets, Weichen actually has something important to play!" ”
"Oh, Wen Qing might as well come and hear it!" Zhao Lao Er said with a smile. It has been more than a year since Wen Qihang was hired as an official, but Zhao Lao Er received Wen Qihang's personal recital, and he could count a slap, so he didn't believe that Wen Qihang would suddenly care about the court at such a time.
"Please Your Majesty and the generals move outside the hall, Wechen has made a little arrangement outside the hall, as long as Your Majesty and the generals have a look, you can know why Wechen wants to use pork instead of mutton." Smell the invitation to set sail.
"Okay, let's go!" Zhao Lao Er got up and said.
"Your Majesty, by all means!" General Wang hurriedly got up and stopped: "Wen Jue is a famous general of my dynasty, since he has already made arrangements........ It's not the official who wants to suspect Wen Jue's intentions. It's just for the safety of His Majesty, you can't take precautions! ”
"........" was speechless when he heard Qihang. This damn guy must be Wang Bingchen's bastard's own family, and he really spares no effort to discredit himself.
Zhao Lao Er glanced at Wen Qihang, who looked up speechlessly, with a smile: "It's okay, I have never doubted Wen Qing's loyalty." ”
After all, the palace is the lair of the evil dragon Zhao Laoer, so he naturally knows everything about what is happening here, and he is also very curious about the thing that Wen Qihang has built in the past few days. I also want to know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd that smells the sailing.
