Chapter 358: I didn't want to pretend to be forced
Cao Mansion, antechamber.
A team of musicians, drummers and shengs, chimes can be energetic, spinning and jumping.
To the sound of music, a group of singers danced.
Give some smoke bombs, that is the fairyland of Yaochi.
Church.
Cao Cao and Han Sui sat across the table.
At this moment, Cao Cao raised his glass and said with a wrinkled smile: "It is really rare to be able to meet General Han here in ten years, drink this cup full." ”
The two of them held the bronze cup and drank it all.
"It's just that General Ma Teng didn't come, it's a pity." Cao Cao put down his wine glass and said.
Han Sui touched his beard, "Recently, there has been civil strife in Qiangdi, and General Ma has not been able to make the trip because of this. ”
Cao Cao didn't say much about military affairs, and said with a smile: "Today, I invite General Han Sui to taste a famous dish, called Four Seasons Poinsettia Oil Small Mill Ten Perfect Beef Soup." ”
"It is to select high-quality calf loin, which is not only tender in meat, but also can calm and nourish qi, strengthen the spleen and stomach, strengthen muscles and bones, and quench thirst and salivation. Plus the veal loin, it's really a delicacy in the world, and only I can eat it here. ”
Cattle were protected animals in ancient times, and slaughtering them was a crime. Unless you die of old age, sickness, and death, you can kill and eat, let alone eat calves.
After Han Sui heard it, of course he knew that this was what he meant, and he was still very satisfied with this trip to the Central Plains, and looked at Cao Cao with grateful eyes.
In order to win over allies, Cao Cao of course had to do both official and private.
At this time, there was a noisy sound outside.
Cao Cao frowned, and he was about to scold, but although Han Sui was invited to the banquet today and did not talk about official business, Cao Cao's personality was all about official business, "What's the matter?" ”
With his words, the music stopped.
Less.
Cao Dazhu, the first chef of Cao Mansion, took a few apprentices and escorted Yuan Tan into the hall.
Yuan Tan had used a beauty camera to put on makeup, and coupled with his preconceived identity, Cao Cao naturally didn't recognize him.
Cao Cao thought it was official business, but he didn't expect it to be housework, so he said that he would handle it later.
But when I heard that the dishes that had been stewed for ten days were messed up, and there was no food to eat, and the woolen thread was opened, I was annoyed at the time.
According to Boss Cao's temper, he would have been pulled out and cut directly.
But at this moment, Han Sui was still by his side, and he couldn't do unreasonable things.
Cunning eyes looked at Yuan Tan, "Are you guilty?" ”
Yuan Tan looked Cao Cao up and down, and found that Boss Cao didn't recognize him, so he was really relieved.
He is not afraid, if he is afraid, he will already slip away, and no one can stop him. At this moment, he broke free from the shackles of Cao Dazhui and others, and said lightly: "Four seasons poinsettia oil small mill ten perfect tonic beef soup, right, is this also called a vegetable?" ”
Before the words fell, the audience was shocked.
How many angry eyes looked at Yuan Tan, this young man, you are too awesome, right? If the first dish in the Central Plains is not called a dish, then what is a dish?
I thought that Yuan Tan would be frightened and begged for mercy, but I didn't expect to rub Chef Cao and his dishes under his feet.
Was he scared stupid?
He should be the one who is being pressed to the ground and rubbed now.
Under the shocked, angry, and manic gaze of everyone, Yuan Tan said calmly: "You said that you people, except for steaming or stewing, can't you have anything else?" ”
What Yuan Tan said is also true, most of the food now is stewed, and the rest is roasted.
Something else?
Including Cao Cao, it was hard to hide his surprise.
Cao Cao's face was gloomy, and he looked at him with a sinister gaze, "Will you do anything else?" ”
"Proficient in frying, cooking, and frying." Yuan Tan took a step forward and said calmly: "These people are all mediocre chefs, how can entertaining distinguished guests with their dishes reflect the respect of Duke Cao?" So I smashed them. ”
it!
Including Cao Cao and Han Sui, the guards and Xiahoudun and others who accompanied them were all in turmoil. You young man is too domineering and mighty, you smashed the dishes of the first chef in the Central Plains, you are too confident.
Cao Da Hammer suddenly exploded in his lungs when he heard it, and although Cao Cao was there, he couldn't help but roar angrily, "You kid is not ashamed!" I have been cooking for 50 years, and my apprentices are all over the Central Plains, and I have never seen any dishes! ”
"You still say we're mediocre chefs? Lord! This is his excuse to get out, and he can't be spared! ”
Cao Dazhui has been cooking in Cao Mansion since Cao Cao's father, and he has also watched Cao Cao grow up.
Cao Cao frowned, "What's your name?" ”
"Under Cao Lang, Cao Qilai."
Cao Lang Cao Qilai?
Cao Cao knew that he was a family member who had followed his family for many years, but after thinking about it for a long time, he had no impression. But it was normal for him to not be able to remember it, so he was quickly relieved.
"Cao Qilai, since you dare to say such big words, then you can make a dish." Cao Cao saw that it was his own family, his expression softened a little, and he said lightly.
Cao Dazhui patted his head when he heard this, "The lord is right. Then he looked at Yuan Tan with cannibalistic eyes, "If you can't cook better dishes than me, I'll soak you in the pig cage." ”
"Don't push me." Yuan Tan looked over and said.
"Hehe, I forced you, what can you do?" Cao Dazhui doesn't believe that Yuan Tan's cooking skills can be compared with himself, after all, with Yuan Tan's age, how many years can he practice in his mother's womb?
Yuan Tan looked around, and felt that he would not be able to open the pot without showing his hand.
Then he said calmly: "In this case, General Han Sui is a native of Xiliang and rarely uses southern cuisine, so I will make a sweet and sour carp." ”
Sweet and sour carp?
???
Although Cao Cao is a generation of heroes, he only knows that he is making fish at the moment, and he really doesn't understand sweet and sour carp. He doesn't understand, so don't talk about anyone else.
"Master, what kind of dish is sweet and sour carp?" An apprentice couldn't help but ask Cao Da Hammer.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes focused on Cao Da Hammer.
I saw Cao Dazhui's other faces, twitching the corners of his eyes, and he snorted coldly and said lightly: "He must have made it up." ”
Cao Dazhui looked at everyone's disgusted expressions, and wanted to cry without tears. I wailed in my heart, he must have made it up, how could there be a dish I didn't know?
Less.
It's in the hall, and the ingredients and kitchenware are all in place.
"I'll see how he does!" Cao Dazhui touched his beard and said coldly, in fact, his heart was already up and down.
"It's also a taste to look at cooking." Cao Cao said to Han Sui.
Han Sui also nodded with interest.
Originally, everyone didn't pay much attention to Yuan Tan's cooking, but as Yuan Tan's kitchen knife flew up and down, everyone's eyes gradually straightened.
And Cao Sledgehammer began to tremble.
Changing the knife, cutting out the lines is not counted, but also cut into the shape of a dragon.
Then there is frying, cooking, and frying.
The carp is golden brown on the outside and tender on the inside, and its head and tail are raised upward, giving the illusion of soaring into the sky.
In addition, it is carved into the shape of a dragon, which is even more extraordinary.
Cao Da Hammer has been paralyzed on the ground at the moment, and making fish at this time is stewing and steaming, "Fish can still do this, my Cao Da Hammer has more than 50 years of skills, and today is an eye-opener!" ”
He looked at Yuan Tan with a pale face, and suddenly felt that he had been blind for decades.
"Go up and give Cao Gong a taste." Under Yuan Tan's reminder, the attendant remembered his duty.
When the sweet and sour carp was served, Cao Cao and Han Sui looked at it directly, and there was already saliva in their mouths.
"Delicious!"
"Fragrant, crispy, soft, slippery ......."
Cao Cao and Han Sui scrambled, and Xiahoudun and the others saw that their index fingers moved, and they wanted to take a bite too, but it seemed that it was unlikely.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, I ate sweet and sour carp there, and I was immediately shocked.
When everyone looked at Yuan Tan again, their eyes were completely different, no wonder people dared to smash the pot of the No. 1 chef in the Central Plains, they had this confidence and confidence.
I have to say that this young man pretended to be a big success today, it's too good.
Cao Cao took another bite with a crisp bite, put down the fish, looked at it, and said lightly: "Cao Qilai, which room are you from?" ”
"I'm the housekeeper in Miss Cao Jie's yard."
Cao Cao nodded and said, "Okay, I remember you, you go down first." ”
Thereupon.
When Yuan Tan came to the kitchen again, Cao Dazhui and his team of dozens of people were all huddled in the corner, with frightened expressions, holding iron pots and horse spoons, looking at Yuan Tan nervously.
smashed Cao Da Hammer's pot, not only did the lord not blame, but also remembered him.
Now Yuan Tan is already a popular fried man in Cao Mansion.
Bite! Congratulations to the host for the success of the pretending, and the pretending value is increased by 6
Bite! Congratulations to the host for the success of the pretending, and the pretending value is increased by 7
Bite! Congratulations to the host for the success of the pretending, and the pretending value is increased by 8
The pretending value has arrived in the account.
"You, come out." Yuan Tan hooked his finger at Cao Da Hammer.
Cao Dazhui was about to cry, but he had to walk out in a daze.
Everyone else is nervous, after all, Cao Dazhui has been galloping in the kitchen for half a century, and now it is planted in the hands of a little cub, even if it is planted so badly, they are really even more afraid.
"Look for more milk." Yuan Tan began to call the shots.
Yuan Tan started making cheese and also made bread with eggs and flour.
During the two-day production process, they were completely shocked by the sledgehammer of 1,800 years ago.
When the birthday cake was made, Cao Dazhui respectfully and sincerely presented his big horse spoon.
The others solemnly watched this solemn ceremony, and the power of the kitchen changed at this moment.
Yuan Tan didn't take the big spoon, he just took the cake and left, today is Cao Jie's birthday, and he still has a lot of things to do.
Cao Dazhui looked at the distant figure and left tears of admiration, "He doesn't want the first position in the Central Plains, this is the real kitchen god!" ”
The admiration of the other cooks can be imagined.
Night.
Cao Jie in the boudoir, embroidering in front of a dim oil lamp.
The lights reflected the lonely figure.
She embroidered a handkerchief for a girl chasing butterflies.
It was a birthday present from herself.
At the same time, it is a way to pass the time of loneliness.
I don't know when, the lights went out.
In the dark, Cao Jie was stunned.
Then there was a boundless sadness pouring out.
She's just a girl after all, on this most important day.
No one even remembered her, remembered her birthday.
In the darkness, it made people feel even more lonely and sad, and Cao Jie left tears.
