Chapter 462: The Chef's Knife Dance
"You're here to take over the work? Says who? To be honest, Hua Mian also wants to be lazy, and hopes that someone can change hands so that she can be lazy, if it was someone in the imperial dining room, maybe she would really agree, but now it is the chef of the city guard mansion who said that he would replace her work and prepare to receive the meal of His Royal Highness Eleven, but this, even if she wants to paddle and be lazy, out of the consideration of duty, she does not dare to agree casually.
"Your Highness is in a special situation, and she is extremely strict with the use of ingredients, and if you are a little afraid of causing Your Highness to fall ill again", although it may be an exaggeration, it is generally true.
Unexpectedly, after hearing Hua Mian's refusal, the other party's chef said something unexpected to her: "We naturally know about the situation of His Highness Eleventh, and these are also instructed by His Highness, and a few of us will prepare Beilin customs and customary dishes for His Highness."
Beilin customs? Hua Mian immediately understood, for a young man like Ye Huang who had a great interest in Beilin, at this time, someone proposed to prepare the Beilin style for the reception banquet, he would have expected it more than anyone else, and to be honest, even he was a little curious.
However, this does not become a reason to allow these strange chefs to prepare dishes for His Highness, both sides have their own reasons for not being able to retreat, and after several arguments, they only took a step back from each other, and finally concluded that the chef of the castle guard mansion allowed Huamian to participate in the preparation of dishes, and at the same time she could give a reminder, but it was only limited to the use of ingredients, so as to prevent the chefs here from using ingredients that His Highness Eleven could not eat in the process of making dishes.
Hua Mian happily accepted the other party's proposal, she was also full of interest in Beilin's dishes, and it was inconvenient to ask them directly about the recipes they used out of respect between the chefs, but she didn't expect the other party to care about these rules, this must be a good thing, seeing the production steps with your own eyes is definitely much stronger than just reading the text on the recipe and guessing it yourself.
Hua Mian immediately instructed to go back to the room with Xiao Cui and wait, because there are really not so many rooms in the City Shou Mansion, Hua Mian has to live in the same room with Xiao Cui, I already knew that His Royal Highness wanted to eat Beilin-style dishes, why did he follow him to the City Shou Mansion? I still have to squeeze into a small room in the courtyard of the kitchen with Xiaocui, and the bed is so hard......
Following the middle-aged man into the kitchen of the city guard's mansion, there was another busy scene in front of him, the kitchen and the backyard here are not the usual walls, but several wooden doors, at this time the wooden doors are all removed, and the kitchen is linked to the small courtyard behind.
Next to a huge stone jar in the courtyard, the ground is two bluestone slabs the length of one person, and at this moment two half-slaughtered sheep are lying on the board, and there is a trickle of bright red blood in the courtyard covered with stone slabs.
"Gross!" , smelling the rich smell of blood in the air, Hua Mian retched unconsciously.
Seeing her have such a reaction, the man on the side laughed twice, strode to the bluestone slab, took the long knife from the person who was dividing, raised his hand and slashed down in front of the sheep.
Huamian is almost stunned, where is this killing sheep? It was clearly like a different kind of dance, the knife in the middle-aged man's hand danced in the air, and with every contact between the knife and the mutton, strings of blood flowers jumped up, like an irregular pattern made of red pearls in front of him.
