In a few decades, or hundreds of years later, there will be a general who said a famous saying, "Everything is unbearable, only in the heat and goodness," so this food organized by Yang Heng this time, strictly speaking, is really not a delicacy.

Why, from the perspective of the chefs, they are mainly the knife work of the show, the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and the only lack of flavor matching, which can not be blamed on them, although since the beginning of the previous dynasty, this food culture began to flourish, but after all, there were decades of war in the middle, and at this time it has just stabilized, and the rule of Zhenguan has just begun.

Besides, Yang Heng held this event, but it was just to catch ducks on the shelves, just because he felt that an annual meeting was about to change his taste, so he urgently organized such a show.

Since it is said to be food, the front can only be regarded as an appetizer, and the staple food has not yet been served When the guests are full of drinks, there is another change on the field, all the cooking utensils for cooking and frying have been withdrawn, and now there are some panels, rolling pins, and even some pots and stoves and other equipment, which are to prepare for the staple food, to say why this can be withdrawn so quickly, and arranged up, naturally thanks to some of Yang Heng's inventions, he used a lot of new briquette stoves at the scene, with single briquettes, There are also multiple briquettes, in short, the size of the flame, the urgency, are adjustable, this is the guarantee of cooking delicious dishes, however, there is also a lack of some special taste, the previous dynasty once said that "warm wine and meat with charcoal, firewood, bamboo fire, grass fire, ephedra fire, smell different." "But this condition is not met, is it, that is, the charcoal fire is used when the meat is roasted, and the rest is made of briquettes. It's called carbon.

"Since it's Datang cuisine. Then we are familiar with Hu Cake. Naturally, our Datang is not without Hu food can not eat, everyone thinks about it, this sky flies on the ground, swims in the sea, and even grows in the field, what kind of thing can't make food. Today, I will let you open your eyes and appetize to taste the authentic food of our Datang. ”

The so-called Hu food, in general, should still be regarded as some fast food nature, are convenient to carry food, such as what Hu cakes, gluttony, etc. are sold on the street, it is bigger than Datang pastries, can satisfy hunger. Maybe one will make people full, or even half full. And Datang's pastries are not so simple, the pastries are very exquisite, but they are very small, naturally you can't carry a basket along the way to eat, and even put a basket in front of you on the banquet table, besides, these pastries are relatively expensive foods, even the nobles of Datang will not take pastries as staple food.

"Ladies and gentlemen, then our way of eating will change, there will be a maid in front of each table, they are responsible for bringing you food, you just need to point out a certain kind of food on the field, or a few kinds of food, let the maid serve it to you, not everything must be served, if there is not enough, then I am sorry, because there are too many types, so you can't make too many quantities."

Yang Heng's last appearance illustrated the rules of this dinner, that is, there are no rules, what you like, what you want, fast hands, slow hands.

"What I'm making here is a soup cake, or it's not a soup cake, this is called noodles in the Yang family, this noodle is pure noodles without any seasoning, and here I have prepared three kinds of marinade for you to use, this marinade has beef fried sauce, as well as sweet noodle sauce, and the last one is pure refined salt water." The first chef who had done it explained it and stepped aside.

Naturally, this chef is from Yang Heng's family, and the three kinds of marinade are also instructed by Yang Heng, so that the guests can choose by themselves, if they eat miscellaneous flavors, they will eat miscellaneous flavors, if they eat sweet, they will eat sweet, and if they eat salty, then they will eat salty.

As Yang Heng expected, everyone unanimously chose the marinade of beef fried sauce, and the other two were idle, in fact, if Yang Heng was to choose, he would not choose this, he would directly choose the salt water surface, why, the front is more tired of eating, put a little salt water in the light noodles, and it tastes refreshing, isn't it.

"This is porridge, very ordinary white rice porridge, it is a porridge made of rice selected from the rice grown by the Yang family, ordinary people can't eat it, but I also have an adjunct here, that is, sugar, if you don't like to drink porridge alone, you can also match it with sugar." Whose chef is this, is it very humorous, he saw that the person who made noodles in front of him gave three kinds of marinade, so he had an idea, found some sugar and put it aside, naturally this porridge can be regarded as two choices, but this sugar is really ugly, some yellow and some black, this, do I still want to transform sugar?

There are two kinds of soup, followed by yellow rice, white rice, and various cakes.

What is especially rare is that Yang Heng found a kind of steamed bun, to say that he has been in the Tang Dynasty for a long time, it is the first time he has found this thing of steamed bread, but if you take a closer look, this is still different from steamed bread, it is a dead steamed bun, if it can be used as a stone, is this the steamed bun that Zhuge Kongming researched to replace the human head sacrifice, no wonder there are not many people who eat it.

What is that, suddenly, Yang Heng found that there was a sweaty chef who was busy on the side, "Xiao Langjun, that's a wrench, a very beautiful delicacy, you look at his movements, you look at his cooking utensils, and then look at those guests, they are all waiting for this thing." ”

What is this, Yang Heng looked at it carefully, it was just a deformed food of oil cakes, that is, the materials were more particular, smelling the smell in the air, he could naturally tell that he was using sesame oil, and what it was, jujube paste, and those kitchen utensils, all of which were made of silver.

However, what Yang Heng attaches the most importance to is a steamer on the other side, Yang Heng knows that it is the favorite food of the literati and writers of the Tang Dynasty, that is, carved hu rice, this kind of food, after the Song Dynasty, can only be seen in the history books, it is said that in the later Song Dynasty, the imperial court in order to eliminate this kind of meal even did not hesitate to make up stories to slander this kind of food, saying that it was poisonous or something, but it was just for the considerable yield of rhizomes, yes, compared to wild rice, or rhizomes, Wouldn't it give people more food?

Whether it is Lao Li or Lao Du, they have written poems and praised it, "Slippery memories of carved Hu rice, fragrant brocade soup." It can be seen that the beauty of this carved hu rice, and similarly, there are also some guests who are staring at the pot of carved hu rice, and they let the maid come forward to grab it as soon as the pot comes out.

So far, from dishes to all kinds of meals, Yang Heng found that there are really a lot of delicacies in the Tang Dynasty, fortunately, he didn't show off his cooking skills, otherwise he wouldn't laugh to death many people, he started from the wine, it can be seen that he chose the right one, however, there are some regrets, that is, he did not improve the salt, and sugar, but only planted a part of the seasoning, and if these seasonings are bought, they are sold in the pharmacy, and they are not particularly cherished.

Perhaps, the next target is salt and sugar, when he found out about this, he had already learned from the housekeeper that the salt mine is nearby, but unfortunately, it can't be eaten, needless to say, there are too many minerals in it, and even some minerals are still poisonous, naturally no one eats it, and the salt on the market, that is from the seaside, and it is also boiled salt, boiled salt, there is no salt yet, is this a promising thing, Next, he should go to Li Er to apply for buying a salt mine, so that his family will have a new industry, that is, the salt industry, drying salt, then forget it, he doesn't want to live by the sea.

Sugar, it is said that there is a product of sugarcane in the south, so it is also a good industry to transport sugarcane back from the south and let people research and make white sugar, or brown sugar.

When Yang Heng was thinking nonsense, everyone also fought and left slowly, and Li Er had already left, he left before dinner, the shareholders didn't have any ideas, but Li Er sent them, and Lao Li Gang left satisfied, yes, maybe there will be one or two articles after they go back, or even research reports come out, although this food is still lacking, but the mainstream things are here, and people are satisfied.
