CHAPTER XVI

"Hey, hey!" Lin Yiyan first laughed dryly, rubbed his sore arm and took the soup bowl in Master Abbe's hand, "Speaking of which, I'm also very surprised that I have this kind of physical strength!" ”

"That's it!" Master Abbe shook his head and opened his mouth to persuade, "It's better to drink the soup quickly, it's good for you!" ”

"Hmm!" After responding, Lin Yiyan picked up the spoon and scooped up a spoonful of soup and put it into his mouth. The moment he swallowed it, a sensation like electricity instantly spread throughout his body, Lin Yiyan's eyes lit up, and he looked at Master Abbe in surprise, "Master! This soup! It's really delicious! ”

"The moment I swallowed it, the deliciousness of the soup spread to my whole body, and at the same time, I felt that my strength was slowly recovering! It's the first time I've had such a delicious soup! Master! What kind of soup is this soup! Is there anything in there? It's a great feeling of instant refreshment! Looking at the soup in the bowl that was as clear as water, but shining with a little brilliance, Lin Yiyan looked at Master Abbe so expectantly!

"Hmmm! Speaking of which, it's just ordinary rice soup! Master Abbe smiled and said, "It's just that I added some Chinese herbs to it!" ”

"Rice soup?" Lin Yiyan looked down at the crystal clear soup bowl, "But Master!" Isn't rice soup supposed to be white? This soup is so clear......"

"That's right! But I don't use a regular pot to burn! Master Abbe smiled mysteriously, turned around and took out something from the kitchen and put it in Lin Yiyan's hand, "I used a paper pot to burn it!" ”

"Paper Pot !??" First of all, I was surprised! Then, Lin Yiyan nodded as if he had thought of something, "I see!" Is it to take advantage of the absorbency of paper? Use paper to absorb the white magazines in the rice soup, and if there is water in the paper, it will not ignite! ”

"Correct!" Master Abbe looked at Lin Yiyan in surprise, "I didn't expect Xiao Yi to know a lot!" I also know a lot about the characteristics of paper! I did use this principle to cook this rice soup! ”

"But, Master? You said you put some Chinese medicine in it, what are they? ”

"Hmmm! Basic herbs such as yam, poria, lotus seeds, ginkgo seeds, seeds, and barley are all good things to restore physical strength! ”

Regarding Master Abbey's answer, Lin Yiyan remembered it for a while, then nodded and said, "I remember, thank you Master!" ”

"Hmmm! It can be seen that Xiao Yi is also a hard-working child! Master Abbe touched Lin Yiyan's head, as if he was pampering his own child!

"Master! I'm not a child, don't rub my head! Regarding Master Abbey's actions, Lin Yiyan said with a slight complaint.

"Got it! Got it! Master Abbe waved her hand indifferently, she could see that although Lin Yiyan was complaining, she still enjoyed it, so she continued to persuade, "You better go and rest first!" So saying, he got up and left.

It's just that before she could take a few steps, Master Abbe suddenly turned to Lin Yiyan and said, "Tomorrow, Xiao Yi's cultivation content will be the same as today, cut all the ingredients in the kitchen in the morning, and practice throwing the pot in the afternoon." By the way, and the basic books I gave you should also be taken a good look at! ”

And Lin Yiyan only kept nodding, indicating that he remembered.

At night, in Lin Yiyan's room-

At this moment, Lin Yiyan is reading a book with an oil lamp, and it is the four books "Chef's Introductory Knowledge", "Chef's Introductory Knowledge", "Chef's Introductory Knowledge", "Cooking Tips and Cooking Basics that Chefs Must Know", and "Cooking Tips and Cooking Basics that Chefs Must Know" given by Master Abbe this afternoon.

Compared with the few small categories of dishes that Master Abbe talked about today, in this cook's introductory knowledge, dozens of categories are subdivided, and various detailed explanations are also made.

For example, the four basic cooking methods mentioned by Master Abbe this morning are explained in detail in the chef's introductory knowledge.

The first is stir-frying, which has long been written as 'stir-frying' and is one of the most basic cooking methods by cutting food into small pieces and quickly stirring them together with seasonings in an iron pot that burns strong oil until cooked.

After stir-frying, it is boiled, which is one of the easiest cooking methods. This is a recipe to cook food in a pot with an appropriate amount of boiling water, soup, and seasonings. Deep-frying is one of the most commonly used cooking methods, and refers to the cooking technique of putting food in a large amount of hot oil until it is cooked to a crispy crisp.

The last item is stew! It is a method of adding food to water or soup, putting it in a container with a lid, covering the lid, and then using the heat of the water vapor to cook it and make the soup. Northern cuisine, on the other hand, refers to the cooking method of cooking food softly and over a simmer with plenty of soup.

Of course, there are also some strange cooking methods in it, and Master Abbe has also written it inside. For example, there is a cooking method called 'oil bubbles', which uses a large amount of hot oil to quickly cook food.

In Master Abbe's notes, it is also known as 'oil walking' or 'oil running', which refers to a processing method in which processed ingredients are quickly dragged through boiling oil to provide a cutting-edge basis for subsequent dishes.

There is also a strange method of cooking called 'flame' and 'jelly', which is a cooking method in which fresh seafood is placed in a glassware and cooked by the heat generated by igniting a high number of liquor. 'Jelly' is a cooking method in which food and ginger and shallots are placed in a clay pot that is extremely hot, so that the food makes a 'jelly' sound and aroma.

In addition to these, there are more than 80 kinds of different cooking methods, such as leaning, simmering, boiling, slipping, saving, sucking, drunk, retorting, flying water, ice soaking, plucking silk, hanging frost, sauna, nesting, frying, sizing, hanging paste, etc., which can be said to be a hundred flowers blooming.

However, looking at these entries and various explanations, Lin Yiyan could only sigh, "It is worthy of being a master!" There are so many ways to cook them, and you know, these things are rarely used even in your own modern world, right? ”

After Lin Yiyan sighed, Draiger also sighed in a rather subtle voice, "Partner? I never knew that you humans have developed such a variety of forms of cooking, and most of the cooking methods in this book have never been heard of even in the time I've lived so long! ”
