Chapter 4 Top Chefs of Datang

The sun is on the right side, and the sun is shining.

?? The eldest grandson has been watching the overseas treasures in the forbidden garden of the palace for almost a morning, and the eldest grandson especially likes the koalas brought back from Australia in the forbidden garden, but these little things are obviously not suitable for the climate and environment of the Tang Dynasty, and they have been sleeping in the arms of the eldest grandson.

?? Xu Yang explained that his mouth was dry, but he still had to introduce those animals and plants to the eldest grandson one by one with a shy face and compliments.

??“ I heard that there is a spicy ingredient produced in mainland South America, and I heard that it can make the eater sweat and suffer, is this chili pepper? Empress Eldest Sun was not tired at all, and pointed to a blue-green plant in a beautiful celadon pot in the Forbidden Garden and asked, Listening to Xu Yang's introduction to these things is extremely interesting, and I never get tired of hearing about it.

?? Xu Yang licked some dry lips and wanted the eldest grandson to see that he wanted to drink saliva, but the eldest grandson queen didn't care at all, and still asked curiously: "Xu Qing, this thing is so weird, why did this palace hear General Niu say that this thing is a valuable ingredient?" ”

?? Facing a little embarrassed, Xu Yang replied: "Niangniang doesn't know, this chili pepper has a spicy taste, although it will make people sweat and very hot when eaten, but it is also extremely refreshing and makes people appetite." ”

??“ Oh? Empress Eldest Sun suddenly became interested, "Can it really make people appetite?" ”

??“ If you go back to your mother, as long as you do it correctly, it will definitely make people appetize, how dare you lie to you. Xu Yang said while thinking about the five peppers secretly planted in the backyard of Xujiazhuang, he was not willing to eat them until now, and he was waiting for the large-scale planting of knots next year to eat this delicacy.

?? Empress Eldest Sun looked overjoyed, and said: "Your Majesty has been working hard day and night recently, and your appetite is not as good as day by day, and this palace, as the lord of the six palaces, is also worried about the dragon body of Your Majesty, if you can use this thing to cook a delicious food that makes people appetize and present it to Your Majesty, presumably Your Majesty will be able to eat more." ”

?? Xu Yang secretly thought to himself, who said that Li Er has a bad appetite, and he is going to eat Queen Silla tonight, his appetite is simply good, and poor Queen Changsun is still talking about his body.

??“ Niangniang is kind-hearted, and she still remembers the dragon body of Her Majesty, and she is really the sage of the harem. ”

?? Xu Yang is another sycophant patted over, anyway, sycophants don't need money, everyone is happy if they talk more.

?? Empress Eldest Sun was really amused, "It is said that the heirs of Guigu are sharp-toothed, and what they say really makes people feel happy." ”

??“ The mother praised it falsely, and the minister just told the truth. Xu Yang said modestly.

?? Empress Eldest Sun laughed for a while, and then said: "This time, I brought back fifty-six pepper seeds from overseas, and also collected a lot of pepper fruits. ”

"This" Xu Yang felt that Li Er's anger was already big enough, and let him eat a spicy meal at noon, and the Queen of Silla was estimated to be miserable tonight.

"What? Isn't it possible? Empress Eldest Sun frowned.

"Yes, of course." Xu Yang hurriedly haha, "Chen thinks that making a meal with two overseas ingredients of chili potatoes is the most flavorful." ”

"That's the best, Xu Qing will take the steps, and the palace will order someone to do it." The eldest grandson queen smiled, like a peach blossom blooming in spring.

"Niangniang, the minister thinks it's better for the minister to cook by himself, after all, it is a new type of ingredient, and the minister is afraid that those imperial chefs will not be able to master it well."

Empress Changsun raised her eyebrows, and said that the gentleman was far away from cooking, and the scholars and officials in Chang'an with a little status would not say such a thing as cooking in person, and this ghost valley was really a special case.

"Okay, then Xu Qing has any food needs, just mention them to the imperial dining room, and the palace will meet them one by one." Empress Eldest Sun said with a smile.

Xu Yang took out his mobile phone, and he was not afraid that the eldest grandson queen would see it, so he made a few cool moves generously, unlocked the mobile phone screen, and searched for the method of making braised chicken in Baidu, in his previous life, he often ate this dish in a snack street downstairs, and the potatoes and chicken cooked together tasted very good, and he often frequented that small shop, and now he plans to make such a dish.

Xu Yang in his previous life also cooked, after graduating from college and his wife, both of them usually go to work, and on weekends they usually cook and eat, and they have been following the steps of Baidu to start cooking, from the beginning of cooking to the end of a generation of kitchen gods after countless criticisms, Xu Yang's mental journey is also quite bumpy.

Empress Changsun stared at the mobile phone in Xu Yang's hand, her eyes were shining, this thing is a mobile phone mirror that can predict ancient and modern times, it looks so mysterious, the light spot that appeared in the place where Xu Yang's finger touched just now is like the fluorescence of the moon.

Xu Yang took his mobile phone to find the steps, smacked his lips, and said the ingredients he needed, and Empress Changsun immediately instructed the palace maids and eunuchs around her to bring a pot of ripe peppers and potatoes to the imperial dining room to prepare, and at the same time moved to the imperial dining room with Xu Yang.

The imperial dining room is not far from the palace of the eldest grandson queen, and at the same time it is not very far from the forbidden garden, everyone arrived at the imperial dining room, Xu Yang stood outside the door, and saw two lines of couplets pasted on the wall, the upper couplet: Bazhen cooking joy, the lower couplet: five flavors and new fragrance, the text looks strong and powerful, I don't know which one wrote it.

Hearing that Niangniang was coming, the imperial dining room came out in an orderly manner, and a large group of people knelt in the courtyard.

Empress Eldest Sun said very casually: "No courtesy." The black people kneeling in the courtyard got up, and a fat middle-aged man in a blue cloth linen dress stood up from the front of the crowd with a bow, and said, "I don't know what the Niangniang is here to order." ”

"Today, the disciples of Guigu are going to cook a new dish with overseas ingredients, as Your Majesty's lunch today, you must fully cooperate." Empress Eldest Sun is always so high in the face of these servants and slaves, as if she does not eat the fireworks of the world.

"The little one obeys." The chubby middle-aged man respectfully returned to the Tao.

Glancing at it, Xu Yang followed everyone into the imperial dining room, to be honest, Xu Yang had never been to the imperial dining room, even if he had breached the Forbidden City in later generations, he didn't know where the imperial dining room of the Forbidden City was, and this was the first time he came to the imperial dining room.

When I entered the house, I saw that the whole house was neat, all kinds of steamers, cauldrons, plates, and ingredients were all placed in an orderly manner, and at the same time, the room was very large, and a door was also connected to the backyard, which was also the boundary of the imperial dining room.

Leeks, cabbage, spinach, camellia, cucumbers, lettuce, peas, winter melons and other ingredients are placed in large wooden plates, many plants are still fresh, and the unpicked leaves still have morning dewdrops.

A few small servants carefully moved the large vat containing the potatoes in, Xu Yang easily pulled out the potatoes in the mud pot, fortunately, the potatoes were ripe, skillfully peeled, and put the fresh potatoes aside.

The chickens that had already been killed were sent up, and the whole chicken was plucked clean, looking like a plate of white jade.

Xu Yang rolled up his sleeves, looked at the steps on the side and started to make zuò, first chopped the chili pepper, the pungent spicy taste rushed straight to his eyes, Xu Yang's saliva was about to flow out, this original ecological chili pepper in the Americas was really spicy and extraordinary.

Xu Yang washed the chickens and cut them into cubes, and the potatoes had been peeled and cut into oblique blades; The little guy handed over three small dishes, according to what Baidu said: pour six tablespoons of rice wine, three tablespoons of soy sauce, and two tablespoons of sesame oil for later use.

After the preparation was completed, Xu Yang instructed his subordinates to light the stove under the cauldron, and when the oil was hot, put ginger slices and green onions and stir-fry until fragrant; Pour in the chicken nuggets and stir-fry over high heat, directly fry until the skin of the chicken nuggets is a little browned, the meat is slightly tightened, pour in rice wine, soy sauce, add sugar, continue to turn to low heat and simmer until soft, and finally add potatoes and chili peppers to taste, and a plate of braised chicken is completed.

Everyone stared at it, with such a skillful technique, it seems that this Guigu disciple is also a deep cooker, the braised chicken is still steaming, and the aroma of chicken and the hemp aroma of chili pepper are echoed in the whole house.

Empress Changsun sniffed lightly, her face was full of intoxication, and she ordered a maid beside her to go up and try it.

The palace maid walked to the stove with a happy face, picked up a piece of chicken and put it in her mouth, and her eyes widened suddenly; Empress Changsun looked at the palace maid's expression a little nervously, and saw that the palace maid had an unstoppable ecstasy expression.

"Hui Niangniang is so delicious, the slave maid has never tasted this taste," the palace maid had fine beads of sweat oozing from her forehead.

The eldest grandson showed a smile of surprise, and without saying anything, he directly ordered: "Go to the imperial study with the palace, and the palace will personally deliver food to His Majesty!" ”R1152
