Chapter 40 Sichuan Cuisine Session

The next day, Chen Yuan still disguised himself as Narita Sheng and came to the City Lord's Mansion. Now the city lord's family treats him as a guest, as a nobleman with extremely rich material conditions, the city lord's family lacks nothing, what is lacking is the improvement of the quality of life, Chen Yuan's cooking skills to a large extent to meet the family's pursuit of quality of life. What is quality of life? It doesn't mean that eating the best ingredients, wearing the best clothes, and living in the biggest mansion is the quality of life. Instead, they eat the most delicious, healthy and exquisite food, wear the most comfortable, bright and suitable clothes, and live in the most emotional, original and stylish mansions. In these aspects, at least Chen Yuan can help the city lord's family to do the first thing.

Put on a new overalls, this is a chef's uniform specially made by the city lord, highlighting the status of Chen Yuan's special chef. After becoming a special chef, Chen Yuan also got a city lord's warrant, which means that, except for some confidential places, most of the city lord's mansion, Chen Yuan can enter and exit at will without any restrictions. This was of great significance to Chen Yuan's task, and Chen Yuan couldn't help but be overjoyed at that time.

Chen Yuan was wandering around the City Lord's Mansion, and he didn't have to be responsible for breakfast, so the current Chen Yuan could be said to be very leisurely. Through questioning and walking, Chen Yuan quickly determined the location of the city lord's study. According to the subordinates who chatted with him, the city lord generally deals with the affairs of the city in the study, which means that except for three meals a day and necessary rest time, the city lord will stay in the study to deal with affairs.

In this way, if Chen Yuan wants to steal the blue fire seal, he must start at three meals and rest time, it is possible to succeed, if he is discovered by the city lord, he does not need the help of the guards in the mansion, the city lord alone, with his profound cultivation, Chen Yuan will definitely not be able to escape ten steps away from the city lord's mansion.

Tatsumoto leaned against the pillar in the hallway, touching his chin and thinking about his next plan. The infiltration has been very successful, and the next thing is to steal and poison, thinking about the time arrangement, Chen Yuan has a plan in his heart. If these two items are carried out separately, time is not allowed, because today is the last day of the assessment, and once the theft is successful, the frequency of the city lord going to the study must not be hidden for long, so Chen Yuan decided to take a two-pronged approach and carry out these two tasks at the same time.

It's good to say that stealing tokens is good to say, with Chen Yuan's skills, although the study is a confidential place, and there are special guards, but it is still difficult for Chen Yuan. The trouble is that this poisoning, the smell of Yang Yan grass powder is too strong, and normal people can smell the problem as long as they smell it. Just when Chen Yuan had a headache because of the spicy and pungent taste of Yangyan grass, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, spicy! The most widely spread Sichuan cuisine in China, the main feature is not spicy!

Chen Yuan still remembers that when he first learned cooking, the first cuisine mentioned by the teacher was Sichuan cuisine. At that time, the teacher talked about the characteristics: fresh and mellow, spicy and spicy, one dish and one style, and one hundred dishes and all kinds of flavors.

There are six kinds of Sichuan cuisine: numb, spicy, sweet, salty, sour, and bitter. On the basis of the six basic flavor types, it can be adjusted and changed into a variety of compound flavor types, in the process of Sichuan cuisine cooking, if you can use the primary and secondary flavors, the intensity and shade, the number of flavors, the mix changes, plus the selection of materials, cutting and cooking properly, you can obtain a variety of delicacies with special flavors with good color, flavor and shape.

Sichuan cuisine is characterized by highlighting numb, spicy, fragrant, fresh, oily, and thick flavor, and reusing the "three peppers" (pepper, pepper, pepper) and fresh ginger. Seasoning methods include dry roast, fish flavor, strange flavor, pepper sesame pepper, red oil, ginger ale, sweet and sour acid, lychee, garlic paste and other compound flavor types. Therefore, isn't this kind of cuisine that focuses on stimulating taste the best choice for adding Yang Yan grass powder?

Tatsumoto learned from the castle lord's library that the chili pepper of this world is an irregularly shaped fruit called burning, so named because after eating, the mouth produces a burning sensation, and almost no one uses this thing as a seasoning in cooking. Of course, this has something to do with the intensity of the burning fruit, because of the aura, the burning fruit of this world is far stronger than the earth's chili pepper belt personal sensory stimulation, but Chen Yuan does not think that this is an intractable problem at all, as long as it is processed properly and used properly, it can be used as a seasoning.

Chen Yuan, who thought of a way, did not delay, and immediately went out to collect materials. "Tian Sheng, where are you going in a hurry?" met Xiao Wanqing, who had just returned from outside the mansion, and saw that Chen Yuan was in a hurry to leave the mansion, so he asked.

"Yes, Miss, I just remembered a few famous dishes from my hometown, and I was about to go out to buy ingredients. I'll give you a taste of something different at noon. Chen Yuan said.

Xiao Wanqing's eyes lit up: "I'll go with you, I want to see if there's anything special." Chen Yuan didn't refuse, Xiao Wanqing is definitely much more familiar with Xiaoqing City than Chen Yuan, and it is better to find all the ingredients and seasonings faster with her. "First of all, we need pork meat, tofu, mang beef and beef offal, Qingxi fish, and bighorn mutton. Auxiliary materials need fragrant grass, perilla, red reed, sweet potato" Chen Yuan listed the main ingredients one by one. The fragrant grass is similar to coriander, while the sweet potato is more like a potato, but with a sweeter taste.

"This is simple, these are the more common meats and vegetables you said, maybe there are them in the house, why do you have to go out to buy them?" Xiao Wanqing was a little puzzled. "Buying these is not the main task, the most important thing is that I need the scorched fruit and the best seed oil. Chen Yuan said the main procurement goal of this trip.

"What? Why are you going to burn the fruit? That thing can't be imported at all!" Xiao Wanqing almost thought she had misheard. "You don't have to worry about that, this is our secret recipe, just keep it for you. Chen Yuan didn't explain too much to Xiao Wanqing.

"Okay, but this thing can't be eaten, and it can't be used for other purposes, basically no one has this thing, it's really not easy to find, let me think about it. Xiao Wanqing didn't ask much when he saw that Chen Yuanshen was mysterious, anyway, he couldn't run away in the City Lord's Mansion, if he couldn't do it, it would be a big deal for him to just be called Hua Jibei. But the scorched fruit was a problem and had no use, so almost no one in the city had anything.

"Ah, I remember! There was an old woman in the city, and because of the variety of the scorched fruits, she had planted a few plants outside the fence of her house to decorate them, and we might have bought a few from her. Xiao Wanqing thought for a while, and suddenly said.

Seeing that Xiao Wanqing really knew where there was such a thing, Chen Yuan couldn't help but secretly say that his decision to bring Xiao Wanqing was right, if he was the only one, just looking for materials, he wouldn't have to run all morning.

The action of the two is very high, under the leadership of Xiao Wanqing, they soon came to the old woman's house that planted the burning fruit, Xiao Wanqing's name as the little princess of Xiaoqing City is really not covered, and the civilians in the city treat this twelve-year-old girl sincerely. When she arrived at the old woman's house, after expressing her intentions, the old woman directly sent some burning fruits to Xiao Wanqing, if it weren't for Chen Yuan and Xiao Wanqing trying their best to stop them, the old man was afraid that he would pick all the burning fruits on the fence and give them to the two of them. After leaving some money, the two bought all the other materials and returned to the house.

"I said, what the hell are you going to cook? God is mysterious, you say so mysterious, you have to tell me the name. Looking at Chen Yuan, who was skillfully scraping the scales and dirty Qingxi fish he bought, Xiao Wanqing couldn't help but ask curiously.

Xiao Wanqing, who couldn't stay idle in the mansion, returned to the mansion after buying the materials, and after greeting the elders as usual, she came to the kitchen to watch Chen Yuan deal with the ingredients. Although some aristocratic young masters and young ladies never enter this place where the next person came, they thought that these places were not clean. But Xiao Wanqing didn't have these hypocritical problems at all, so she leaned on the door frame of the kitchen that was yellowed by oil smoke, looked at Tian Sheng in Chen Yuan's disguise, and was full of curiosity about the unique food that Chen Yuan said.

"It doesn't hurt to tell you, the dishes I'm going to make this time have the same style, but there are slight differences in techniques and materials, and this kind of cuisine has a unified name, called Sichuan cuisine, which is a special dish of a place called Sichuan, which was taught to me by a Sichuan person who passed by the village. At noon today, I'm going to make a special Sichuan cuisine for you!
