The housekeeper and the cook suddenly came to their senses, Dengxian Tower is the property of the Marquis of Jiayuan, but it is just ......

If you are a boss, you don't necessarily know how to cook, after all, cooking is a thing.

Seeing that they still had suspicions, Wang Xiang simply rolled up his sleeves and said, "Get out of the way, I'll do it myself." ”

The housekeeper was shocked when he heard this, and said with a bitter face: "This can't be done, this can't be done, how can Hou Ye's daughter cook in person, if you let the master know, he will definitely punish us, we believe in Hou Ye's cooking skills." ”

The cook standing on the side also nodded again and again, obviously not daring to let Wang Xiang cook himself.

I'm going, you think I'm here to show off my cooking skills?

"It's okay, I often cook by myself in the house, don't tell your master about this."

"This ......"

Without waiting for the housekeeper to talk to the cook, Wang Xiang had already skillfully picked up the kitchen knife next to him and cut the vegetables neatly, and the housekeeper had no choice but to stand beside him at a loss and watch Wang Xiang cook himself.

After cutting the vegetables, Wang Xiang found that the kitchen of Yufu did not even have an iron pot, and the clay pot used for cooking rice and vegetables was only used for stewing soup in later generations, how could it be used to cook dishes.

There are also seasonings that are extremely monotonous, only oil and salt, fortunately the salt is the newly sold refined salt of the imperial court, if it is the dark yellow salt Wang Xiang doesn't even want to eat it.

The salt drying field in Xunzhou has been stabilized, every day a large number of refined salt is transported from Xunzhou to Chang'an, and then sent by Chang'an to the salt Cao Division, the efficiency of the seawater salt drying method is dozens of times higher than the original salt production method, and the dry out are snow-white and delicate fine salt, such a salt production method is only in the hands of the imperial court, so the original private salt dealers have no competitiveness at all.

Now that the best refined salt supplied by the imperial court can be bought for ten cents, ordinary people can afford to eat such fine refined salt, and Yufu will naturally not lack refined salt. However, apart from oil and salt, there are no other seasonings in the kitchen of Yufu, not even soy sauce.

In fact, soy sauce existed a long time ago, and there was also soy sauce in the Tang Dynasty, but the name is not soy sauce, and it is not a mainstream seasoning, until the Song Dynasty, soy sauce was slowly accepted and promoted by the people.

As soon as Wang Xiang stopped playing a little dish, the housekeeper and the cook thought that Wang Xiang was tired of playing, and presumably planned to eat in front of him, but Wang Xiang turned his head and said: "There are too few things in the kitchen in your house, you wait, I'll go get something." ”

After saying that, he walked out of the kitchen, leaving the butler and the cook looking at each other.

"Will the Marquis of Jiayuan come back?" The cook asked in a whisper.

The housekeeper shook his head with a wry smile, he didn't know what Wang Xiang's plans were.

"What about Miss's food?"

The housekeeper sighed and said, "Let's wait first, if Jiayuan Hou doesn't come back after a while, you can prepare a meal for Miss." ”

There is no way, who made Wang Xiang the most important guest of Yufu today.

The cook glanced at the dish that Wang Xiang had just cut, and whispered: "But Hou Ye's kung fu in cutting vegetables is really good, and it is not much different from my knife work for more than 20 years, could it be that Hou Ye really knows how to cook?" ”

Is that the point? The butler shook his head speechlessly.

After Wang Xiang went out, he found a corner where no one was around, and returned to the last days with his thoughts, which was more convenient than going back to the Hou Mansion to get kitchen utensils and seasonings.

When they returned to the basement warehouse, Wang Xingbang and Li Rujuan had just finished eating and were watching a movie in the house.

Because she knew that Wang Xiang was going to pay New Year's greetings to Lao Cheng and Li Er in Datang today, Li Rujuan didn't wait for him to come back for dinner, and at this time she felt strange when she saw Wang Xiang suddenly come back.

Wang Xiang happened to pay New Year's greetings to Wang Xingbang and Li Rujuan, explaining that he would come back to get something and come back to eat with them in the evening.

They all knew that Wang Xiang was a marquis in Datang, and there must have been a lot of things during the Chinese New Year, so they didn't ask much, but just asked him to come back for dinner early in the evening.

Out of the basement warehouse Wang Xiang went straight to the base restaurant, now most of the survivors of the base are cooking and eating in their own homes, so the restaurant is relatively idle, and there are many vacant kitchenware, Wang Xiang chose an iron pot and a stainless steel soup pot, and then took some soy sauce, oil, sesame oil, chicken essence, pepper salt, five-spice powder, and other miscellaneous seasonings, and then returned to the basement warehouse.

When Wang Xiang appeared in the kitchen of Yufu again, the housekeeper and the cook were completely dumbfounded, Wang Xiang carried an iron pot in his right hand, a bag full of condiments in his left hand, and a stainless steel soup pot on his head.

Seeing that they were stunned, Wang Xiang said, "Don't be stunned, help me get something." ”

Only then did the housekeeper and the cook react, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the things in Wang Xiang's hand, and sighed in their hearts: Where did Master Hou get so many things, is this a pot?

Datang cooking is mainly stewed in a clay pot, and only a very small number of people use iron pot stir-frying, and the technology of stir-frying is far from being comparable to later generations, so the sound of Dengxian Lou will be so hot, in addition to the special way of eating hot pot, all kinds of stir-fried dishes in Dengxian Lou are also a must, and many people are going to the fresh and attractive stir-fried dishes.

The chef of Yufu is naturally not an ordinary cook, but also quite knowledgeable, and when he saw the iron pot brought by Wang Xiang, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Is Master Hou preparing to stir-fry?" ”

The ordinary people of Datang have no chance to get in touch with stir-frying, only some rich and noble families will have special chefs to study stir-frying, and the chefs of Yufu have never had the opportunity to learn stir-frying, the technique of stir-frying is definitely a secret in the culinary world, and now there may be a chance to come into contact with how can you not be excited.

Wang Xiang nodded and said, "Yes, I'm going to stir-fry a few side dishes, your stewed cooking method is easy to destroy the taste of the ingredients themselves." ”

As a cook, he naturally understood the defects of stewing, and nodded again and again when he heard this: "What Hou Ye said is, I don't know what I can do to help Hou Ye." ”

said that he was helping, but in fact, the main thing was that he was afraid that Wang Xiang would drive him out, and the advanced cooking skills of stir-frying were basically kept secret.

However, Wang Xiang is not a cook, and he doesn't mind others learning to stir-fry, and he is indeed a little busy alone, so he nodded after listening to the cook's words: "It's okay, you help me wash the ingredients and cut them quickly." ”

"Okay!" The cook agreed again and again, and immediately turned around to wash and chop vegetables, and saw that the housekeeper was stunned.

What the hell is going on? Just now, the chef was still skeptical about Wang Xiang's ability to cook, why does he seem to treat him as a great chef now?

The housekeeper didn't know the significance of stir-frying in the culinary world, so he didn't understand the chef's excitement, so he could only watch Wang Xiang and the cook busy in the kitchen with a dull face, and he found that his brain was completely insufficient.
