Suddenly there is a banquet, and it is still a table table for more than ten or twenty people.

Han Chuan smiled and beckoned people to sit down at four tables - the store was full of square tables, no round tables, and the original idea was to make a delicate kitchen, but now a group of people are pressed to come, and there is no way but to sit at separate tables.

Jingzhao Mansion Yin, who had a high forehead with a national character face, sat on the left side of the main seat, leaving a gap to come out.

Han Chuan thought, this is the main seat left to the son of the Cao family.

The handle is not good, Han Chuan did not stay in the hall to entertain, rushed into the stove house, took stock of the existing ingredients, there are many styles and types, there are both fresh live fat eels in the water tank, there are also a few fresh fish full of spirit, the cage has two light ducks and a small hen, the ice cellar has a leg of lamb and a few good pork ribs, and the good goods at the bottom of the box such as dried abalone, shark fin, bird's nest, etc.

It's not that hard.

The difficulty is the difficulty, how to pinch it?

You have to do a good job and win the reputation of the invitees, so that you can be regarded as giving Hu Wenhe face.

Han Chuan touched his chin and thought about it, simply picked four catties of eel to kill alive, relaxed the oil to fry the water in the eel segment, and garlic, green onion knots, soybean oil, sugar, green and red wine together into a small cup stew, the eel is cooked like a meat roll, the color is golden, elastic, so that the stewed eel segment is clamped up with chopsticks, the two ends droop continuously, the food is extremely bad, the taste is thick and crispy, it is a very famous stew in Jianghuai cuisine.

As the saying goes, "Yellow Eel Race Ginseng in Xiaoxia", people who practice martial arts like to eat it, although today's saints have banned eel and snake ingredients in the palace, but there are not so many taboos in the market, and it is not a big deal to close the door and eat a few bites.

This dish is specially made for Jianghuai people and military attachés, which can be regarded as appropriate for the occasion.

I also made duck bun shark fin, crystal meat, pine mushroom shrimp, carp and lettuce Sichuan soup slices... They are all Jianghuai dishes with a light, smooth and fragrant taste.

Rules, mediocre table, no vegetables.

The cabbage eye is the highlight of a table.

Cooking, especially making noodles, more than 20 dishes, four cold and four hot appetizers, eight to ten hot dishes, two soups, two snacks, a plate of seasonal fruits, each dish must be done, but which one can people remember? Spending an hour to eat a table of noodles makes people come up with an overall evaluation, "It's okay, it's delicious"?

This may be the requirement of ordinary restaurants.

But it's not the standard of Hanchuan.

Han Chuan hopes that people who have eaten her cooking will put down their chopsticks and be able to comment, "... This crispy duck is crispy and crispy, and the white snail is fresh and crispy..."

There must be a few dishes, remember, you can say, next time, I will order it.

That's quite demanding.

Grandpa Bai was silent for a long time after listening to Han Chuan's words, and after understanding, a stuffy spoon hung on the back of Han Chuan's head, "You think you're painting?" Draw one, sell one, applaud one! Bah! Even those literati and, he has to die and fall into the ground, and his paintings and words can be famous! ”

All right.

Han Chuan realized that she was too demanding, but I'm sorry, she didn't think about changing it.

Cooking and painting and writing seemed to her to be the same.

As the old saying goes, a gentleman cooks far away. Han Chuan thought that this was a big lie told by a man to avoid cooking - lyrics are the collision of words and words, cooking is the exchange and replacement of ingredients and ingredients, all of which are made up of a single child as a whole, from one to ten, are full of variables and gambles, all of which are passive products waiting for others to evaluate.

After finishing the menu, Han Chuan put the dishes that needed to be simmered on the stove, brought out the prepared appetizers and hot dishes one after another, and stood in front of the stove to think about the "vegetable eyes" of the table.

With a flicker of his eyes, he landed on the hollow bamboo basket on the edge of the fire kang.

This was sent by Boss Jia this morning.

A basket of bugs.

Got to know the monkey.

I haven't eaten this in the palace, and this thing can't enter the imperial dining room at all.

It's too indiscriminate.

Well... And it's bugs.

Han Chuan can imagine the expressions of the ladies in the palace when they eat this worm.

But today I came to make a pepper and salt monkey to make a "vegetable eye", but it is appropriate for the situation - the beginning of June summer is the most suitable day to eat the monkey, fat and thin and full of meat, if it is later, the shell of the knowledge will become hard, and it will take a lot of teeth to eat.

Lati watched as the shopkeeper poured a basket of insects into the sink, washed and brushed with his head up, then added salt and an appropriate amount of water to soak the insects for a while, got up the pot to heat the oil, tested the oil temperature with the back of his hand, and then put the drained insects into the oil pot and stir-fried back and forth, and after a while, a strange fragrance came out.

Lati shook her head silently.

Strange Central Plains people...

There are so many pork, mutton, chicken, and duck, why do you eat bugs?

Then I saw that the shopkeeper sprinkled coarse salt, peppercorns, and peppercorns into it and stir-fried it, scooped one with a spoon and poked it in front of him.

Ratty looked at the charred brown bug in front of her in horror and shook her head in panic.

As a result of shaking his head, the bug was handed closer and was about to be pressed against his face.

The voice of the shopkeeper was very deep, "Eat!" As a cook, you have to eat everything! Do you want to be the boss? Not to mention insects, the large intestine, the ceiling of the pig's mouth, the stomach containing food, the intestines, claws, tongues of chickens and ducks, and the head of rabbits all have to be eaten! You can't be a chef! ”

Latti: ...

What is a rabbit's head called?

Why do you eat rabbit heads?

Latty suspected that Han Chuan was lying to herself, but she couldn't find any evidence, so she could only twist a piece with her fingers and taste it.

Wow.

Lati looked at Han Chuan in surprise.

Delicious!

Crispy and crunchy!

When you bite into it, the plump flesh fills your lips and teeth.

Fragrant!

With wine and night, this is not enough to do it alone!

Well... As long as no one knows it's a bug...

Han Chuan personally took the dry stir-fried pepper and salt and knew that the monkey came out of the stove house, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that someone was sitting next to the national character with a high forehead and a three-grade master.

It's a very young man.

High nose and big eyes, extremely white complexion, slightly raised eyes, a bit of self-restraint and nobility without speaking, but there are two small pear vortices on the side of the mouth when he speaks, looking kind and harmonious, like a spring breeze, gentle and elegant.

As soon as Han Chuan raised his head, the man also raised his head, Han Chuan smiled and greeted his chin, and at the same time put the monkey lightly on the table, and introduced softly: "... The only cicada is clear and plain, and the latent convulsion is like Taiyin. Cao Zhi once wrote a poem about the cicada's life and natural enemies, and finally said that the biggest natural enemy of the cicada is the 'cook', which shows its deliciousness. ”

The crowd laughed.

Han Chuan also smiled, "It is best to eat monkeys in early summer, and all diners please try them with chopsticks." ”
