Chapter 178: Roast Duck with Zhangjiazhuang Style (II)

Soon, one after another, the palace maids came to Chunfangyuan with large and small plates of exquisite food, and all of them were placed in a certain order in the stone table in the middle of the pavilion. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Of course, a fat cook with a smile on his face also walked in with a few lively ducks and a large bag of things, and after consulting and inspecting the guards at the door.

"Your Majesty, you said that Zhang Yi, this kid can really make delicious food?" The eldest grandson was still a little unconvinced.

Since ancient times, there has been common sense that gentlemen do not go down to the kitchen, and as a middle-level aristocrat of the Tang Dynasty, in her opinion, if she talks about eating, she may still be a little level, but when it comes to doing it, I am afraid that it is just watching the cook do it at home, and then begging for good behavior in front of Li Er.

"It's hard to say! But the bowl of porridge I drank in Zhangjiazhuang last time, I really think it tastes good! Li Er was not sure, and then waved his hand to the princes and princesses standing in front of him, and said with a smile: "You guys come and sit too, I am busy with government affairs on weekdays, so I rarely have time to eat with you, so I happen to be here today to eat together!" ”

Li Er's words immediately made the princes and princesses elated.

As Li Er said, although they have a noble status, in fact, it is very difficult to even see Li Er.

Especially at their age, although they have the rules and teachings of the palace, they are very eager for father's love. What's more, since they were just sensible, someone taught them the so-called etiquette of monarchs and ministers, and how to behave in front of Li Er as a prince, so they were all very polite at this time, and their little faces were filled with an excitement that could not be concealed.

Li Hui is naturally not as excited as other princes and princesses, she is already fourteen years old, she can already be said to be an adult in Datang, but she does not have even a trace of excitement at the moment, only has a complicated respect on her face towards Li Er.

Yes, it is respect, not love!

Because she knew very well that in less than three months, she would marry far away!

For this fate, the only thing Li Hui can do is to accept it silently.

However.... Just when she thought she could calmly face the person she had never met, or was about to marry someone she had only heard the name of once, she saw an acquaintance!

Acquaintance! Li Hui's heart trembled a little. Shake!

This acquaintance had only met her twice, and she could even remember very clearly that evening, on the edge of the Jingyang River, and she could even recall the evil smile on his face.

But sometimes people are like this, maybe it's just a simple one-sided relationship, and you can remember it.

Perhaps when a person meets another person in one encounter, then his life has changed.

So unconsciously, Li Hui secretly looked at the young man who was smiling at his side again... But her heart was once again filled with a faint sadness...

Zhang Yi didn't know Li Hui's thoughts at this time, and under his orders, the fat cook had already begun to slaughter the fat duck quickly, and he also began to sort out the various seasonings in the baggage.

Astermom, sand kernels, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, peppercorns, spices, cumin, wood, angelica, etc.....

"Well, it looks like a cook!" The eldest grandson watched Zhang Yi grind the seasoning into powder according to a certain proportion with his hands and feet, and then add salt and frosting, and laughed unconsciously, and said to Li Er: "Your Majesty, look at this kid's skillful movements, the concubine really believes that he can make delicious food now."

But you don't care if the Earl does such a lowly thing, maybe what those people secretly say about you! ”

"What's wrong with me?" Li Er laughed, pointed at Zhang Yi and said, "Don't forget, the queen, this kid is only fourteen years old now, and he is still a few months away from turning fifteen!" According to the rules, a minor nobleman like him should be managed by the queen, right? Hahahaha! ”

"Really?" The eldest grandson couldn't help but shake his head, and said angrily: "So it seems that this person who carries the black pot has become a concubine, since he is not yet an adult, then the concubine body is a little tired, just take care of him!" ”

As she spoke, she suddenly looked at Li Erdao again: "But Your Majesty, why did you say that this kid made you a delicacy?" Judging from the concubine, this kid doesn't know what bad ideas he has in his stomach! ”

The two of you are happy, I am happy, Zhang Yi's spices have already been compatible, take over the fat duck that the fat chef took care of and removed the duck feathers, and then evenly smeared the prepared ingredients on the fat duck one by one.

When everything was done, Li Er put all these fat ducks in a copper basin and let them marinate slowly.

"Your Majesty, because it takes a little time to marinate to taste, I'm afraid you and Niangniang, as well as the princes and princesses, will need to wait a little longer!" After everything was done, Zhang Yi smiled and arched his hand towards Li Er and said: "Xiaochen dares to guarantee that Xiaochen's duck can definitely be regarded as a delicacy in the world, and you will definitely want to eat the second one after you eat it!" ”

For roast duck, a civilian delicacy that was all over the streets in later generations, it used to be Zhang Yi's favorite.

First of all, the price of this roast duck is not expensive, and eighteen yuan a piece can be consumed by any class.

Moreover, the taste of roast duck is also good, although it is estimated to be a little worse than that of a five-star hotel, but if Zhang Yi does not come up with other delicacies in Datang, I am afraid it is really unique.

Zhang Yi believes that with roast duck, not only Li Er will like it, the eldest grandson will like it, but Li Hui will also like it.

As long as you can win no one's memory, even if you are a chef once, what can you do?

Of course, there is a small plan in Zhang Yi's heart, but it is only incidental.

Because these fat ducks are not so much the ingredients of the palace, but the ingredients purchased by the palace in Zhangjiazhuang. That is to say, all the current fat ducks are from Zhangjiazhuang and Zhang Yi!

As a person who has traveled back in time, Zhang Yi is very aware of the effect that advertising can bring. In the past, there was a saying in the advertising industry, which said, "As long as the advertisement is done well, the grain grass can be turned into gold bars", and it is not difficult to see that this advertising has an incomparably powerful power on sales.

If he can get a compliment from Li Er, even if it is just Li Er's casual words, then Zhang Yi can hang a gold-lettered signboard and declare that even His Majesty can say that Zhangjiazhuang's roast duck is good.

In this way, with this advertisement, it is difficult for the Zhang family not to get rich!

It is precisely because of this that he can not only win the memory of the beauties, but also advertise his own industry, Zhang Yi can't say it if he doesn't work hard!
