The old man's thoughts, Li Chu guessed.

Because of the particularity of the salt thing in ancient times, it is likely to seriously affect the life of the host, and he was specially warned by the system and restricted by the system.

Salt can be used for his own use or given away in small amounts, but cannot be sold, and any economy or prestige generated by any salt that is not used for his own use will not be awarded Ratings and Custom Coins.

Even if Li Chu used custom coins to buy refined salt production recipes or processing machines in the future, it would still not work.

Li Chu also has self-knowledge, with his current strength, to play with salt, this is tantamount to the birthday boy hanging, and he is afraid of a long life.

He lied and said, "I got it from a man from Banbang, and because he did him a favor, he gave me some." ”

Because Li Chu's attitude was sincere and sincere, the old man didn't think much about it, in the old man's opinion, it is impossible for a person like Li Chu to make such fine snow salt by himself, and the imperial court is very strict in this area, even the old man himself is difficult to get involved in this field.

Fan Bang said it, but it is reasonable.

Since he is from Fanbang, this matter can't be kept secret from Li Chu's mouth, so in front of him, he still eats this ......

The old man quickly tapped his fingers into another bowl of bright red sauce seasoning, and then stuffed it into his mouth.

The old man tasted that tomato sauce.

Sweet?

It also has a slightly sour taste.

Hmm, the old man groaned, what is this smell made of?

And the taste of vinegar, so, what is the rest?

After half a ring, the old man gave up, he really couldn't think of it. So I quickly clicked into another bowl of seasoning.

This bowl is different from others, it is not a sauce, nor a powder or a liquid, but a small piece of plant fruit, with a long pointed body, only half a point long, and bright yellow in color.

There were a lot of them in a bowl, and they were soaked in water.

This is millet spicy, and it is also the most spicy kind.

When Li Chu saw it, he hurriedly wanted to stop it, but unfortunately it was too late......

The old man picked one up and put it in his mouth, chewing it......

The next moment, the old man's face changed, his whole face instantly turned red, like a fire, his mouth opened wide, his eyes widened, his cheeks propped up, his mouth kept exhaling, and his hands kept fanning his mouth.

The old man saw the water on the table, picked it up and poured it into his mouth, which seemed to be not enough.

"Water, water, water!"

The old man struggled to pop out a few words from his mouth, sweating all over his body, and dancing with his hands......

Ah Xiu was frightened, thinking that she had eaten the old man, so she hurriedly brought the kettle over and wanted to pour water for the old man, but the old man directly snatched the pot in her hand, sucked the spout with her mouth, and poured it directly......

The purple-clothed young man on the side was even more stupid, and he couldn't react for a while.

Grunt...... Grunt......

After a large amount of underwater belly, the spicy feeling subsided a lot, and the old man sat at the table and gasped for breath, and countless sweats broke out on his body on this cold day.

The young man in purple came over to ask, but was stopped by the old man waving his hand, saying that it was okay, don't worry.

"What is this?"

After a long while, the old man's spiciness subsided, and then he asked Li Chu.

"This is called millet chili, which is native to Fanbang, and the taste is very unique and very spicy."

Li Chu said, grabbed a small chili pepper from the bowl and put it in his mouth, unlike the old man, Li Chu's expression was a kind of enjoyment, chewing slowly, aftertaste.

The old man stared at Li Chu like a ghost.

How domineering this millet spicy is, the old man has a deep understanding, it is like a fire, and the spicy is unbearable, but in front of him, this person actually looks like he is enjoying himself, as if the two are not eating the same food.

The millet used as a side dish seasoning is spicy, not spicy, and has a sweet and sour taste.

It's just that the old man ate chili peppers for the first time, and he ate them in a hurry, without a trace of defense, and was caught off guard by the spicy, which caused the spicy to the taste buds, which will be so, for Li Chu, who is used to eating chili peppers, the spicy taste of this millet is simply pediatric.

"Old man, do you dare to taste it again?"

The old man hesitated, but seeing Li Chu's calm appearance, he carefully picked up a small chili pepper from the bowl handed by Li Chu, and was about to open his mouth to go in, when he heard Li Chu instruct: "Take your time, take a small bite first, don't eat in a hurry, stimulate it in your mouth first." ”

According to Li Chu's instructions, the old man took a small bite gently......

Well, this taste is actually a little sweet, roll it around with your tongue, and squeeze out a small stream of sour water on the pepper, when the sour water is mixed with the sweetness, the taste seems to become sublimated.

Hey, when the millet spicy was swallowed, the old man was surprised to find that the strong and stimulating spicy sensation before no longer appeared, only a trace of sour and spicy taste, especially sweet.

"How, how?" Li Chu asked the old man with a smile.

The old man didn't speak, he stood up again and walked towards the seasoning area, after eating the spicy loss of millet, this time the old man didn't taste it with his hands excitedly, but watched it all the way, there were too many seasonings he hadn't seen before.

Then the old man saw the pressure cooker that was placed on the ground.

So I squatted down and studied this thing curiously, at first I saw that it was golden yellow, and I thought it was made of copper, but I could knock it with my hand, but it was a kind of non-copper and non-iron, but it was a bit like steel, but steel can make such a delicate and small object?

Since Li Chu didn't cover the pot, the old man directly removed the lid and saw the rice inside.

This turned out to be a pot for cooking rice?

To the surprise of the old man.

I cooked a pot of rice for Uncle Liu in front, Uncle Liu didn't eat it, the rice in the pot was already cold, although this was the case, but the old man asked about the fragrance, which is the fragrance of rice that belongs to the only one, this kind of rice fragrance, can not be steamed in the steamer.

Grunt......

As soon as he was seduced by the fragrance of rice, the old man's belly rang out angrily.

The old man returned to the table awkwardly and said with a faint smile, "What will you do?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man immediately stopped, changed his words again, and said: "At noon today, I will eat whatever you do, and serve six dishes to the old man for the time being." ”

"And this meal, you can also make me a portion, but it needs to be hot."

The old man pointed to the pressure cooker on the ground again.

Waiting for you to say this!

The business of this restaurant can finally be opened.

At this time, there was still a peeled piece of winter melon on the board, and Li Chu had already thought about this first dish.

Braised winter melon!

This dish is very particular, Li Chu first cut the winter melon into about four centimeter squares, and then used a knife to gently draw more than 20 small squares about one centimeter in size on the back along the side of the skin.

The knife does not cut the cubes directly into small cubes, but cuts them into the middle, scattering them into twenty cubes on the back, while the fleshy noodles are intact.

Considering that the elderly eat a lot of dishes, the amount of a single dish will naturally be small, otherwise it will be wasted if they can't finish eating.

After cutting the winter melon, Li Chu took out 2 fresh peppers, one red and one green, and cut them into small cubes.

Finely chop the green onion and ginger, pick up a small piece of pork and cut it into small cubes.

When Li Chu put the iron pot on the stove, the old man's attention was all on the iron pot.

Li Chu's speed is very fast, pour oil, and after a while, the oil will explode, put the four winter melon squares on the back to the oil surface, fry them, and when they are fried until the back side becomes golden, take them out of the pot, which is only two or three minutes.

There is some oil left in the pot, put in the Pixian bean paste, stir-fry, out of the red oil, grab a small handful of salt and sugar and sprinkle it in, and then put the chili, diced pork, and minced ginger into it and stir-fry together, and in a second, bursts of fragrance will float out from the iron pot.

Pour the previously fried winter melon into the pot, stir-fry it, spoon half a spoonful of water, pour it in, turn to low heat, and cook for about 15 seconds.

At this time, the meat aroma and watercress fragrance all enter the fiber of the winter melon along the water juice, and then pour a little light soy sauce, remove from the pot, and put it on a plate.

Finally, sprinkle the minced green onion on top, braised winter melon, and you're done!

There are many versions of braised winter melon, Li Chu made this, it is the Hunan version, Hunan people like to eat spicy, put more in the pepper, the winter melon itself is light, when the fiber is soaked with red oil and spicy juice, this bite down, it is really called a sour and refreshing.

Of course, there is another reason, which is to rely on this braised winter melon as a stepping stone to test the taste preferences of the elderly.

Four neatly arranged winter melons, drizzled with small slices of meat, diced chili peppers, watercress, and a layer of green onions on top, but this color and shape are pleasing to the eye, and then smell the fragrance that emanates from it......

The purple-clothed young man on the side immediately moved a stool and sat on the left hand side of the old man.

As soon as Li Chu's dish was served, before the old man moved his chopsticks, the young man in purple quickly picked up a winter melon, and he didn't care about the heat, so he stuffed it directly into his mouth.

Don't look at him staying aside and not making any moves, his mind is slipping away.

Grandfather has long been unaware of how many times he has muttered in his ear about the stir-fry in the private courtyard, and his ears are calloused when he listens to it, and he has been with his grandfather since he was a child, even if he has no intention of it, he was also taken by his grandfather.

Isn't this Li Chu tinkering with in front of him the stir-fry that his grandfather has been talking about?

There are only 4 pieces of winter melon on this plate, if you don't start first, with the character of your grandfather, when you encounter such delicious food, the scum will not be left for him.

"Arlo~!"

The old man was so angry and anxious that he couldn't care about being reserved, so he directly brought the whole dish in front of him, picked it up and stuffed it into his mouth......

This grandfather and grandson......

Li Chu looked at them speechlessly, and asked them to continue grabbing, and he now started to cook the second dish.
