"The king, wait here for a while, and I'll go and arrange a meal for the king." In the reception hall, Wang Li directly greeted King Zhao to the main seat, said hello to him, and then went to the inner room.
"Pei'er, take four pairs of chopsticks and four plates with me, and arrange for the maid to boil two cans of boiling water."
Wang Li commanded, picked up his backpack, first took out two boxes of biscuits, two boxes of chocolates, two packets of fried peanuts, and then took out four packets of Master Kong's instant noodles from them.
Pei'er quickly brought the dishes, chopsticks and plates, and Wang Li, under her curious gaze, opened the packets of instant noodles, put the dough cakes into four bowls, squeezed the sauce, and poured in the seasoning.
Once these are done, separate the biscuits, chocolate, and peanuts into a few plates.
After all this was done, Wang Li put the bowls and plates on the wooden tray, and walked to the front hall with the tray in his hand, and ordered the hot water to be boiled and sent over.
In the living room, King Zhao only waited for a moment, and Wang Li came up with a tray. "Sir, how can you be so fast?" In the court, even the best chef can take a lot of time to make a dish.
Wang Li smiled but did not answer, only divided the two bowls and two plates in front of King Zhao, and then held the tray and went to the table below. "In front of the widow, why should the gentleman be polite?"
Seeing this, King Zhao stopped him, but Wang Li just didn't answer, and knelt down on the left table below. "Wang, the small shop in the small plate can be used first, and the pasta in the bowl has to wait for a while, just wait for the water to boil to complete the last process."
King Zhao first put his nose on the bowl and smelled it, and smelled the fragrance of the sauce: "It's not finished yet, it's so fragrant, let the widow eat yù Dazhen, I really don't know what it will taste like, Mr. is really a good craft." ”
Hearing King Zhao's evaluation, if Wang Li didn't have a "Li" control body, he was afraid that his stomach would hurt with laughter, and the whole person turned over with a smile, God knows that this is just two yuan a pack of instant noodles in modern times, and he used it to eat with this King Zhao, but he was really bullying the ancients who had never seen the world.
However, at this time, the food production is extremely monotonous, only simply boiled in Dading, or roasted on the fire, and all kinds of seasonings are also extremely lacking, only some simple seasonings such as oil and salt.
The sauce of Master Kong's instant noodles, for King Zhao, is definitely a delicacy that he has never tasted.
King Zhao picked up the bamboo chopsticks, first picked up one of the most familiar peanuts, put them in his mouth, and immediately nodded again and again: "I don't know how to cook this peanut, it's so delicious." ”
"It's just that the peanuts are put in some salt and passed through in a small amount of oil, but the king has never tried this way of eating, and he feels delicious when he eats it fresh." Wang Li explained.
"So that's the case, when I go back to the palace, I also let the cook cook like this, but it can also make the palace more delicious."
Wang Wei said, after you go back, the cook will have to scratch off his hair and it will be difficult to make such peanuts. In this era, there is no wok, stir-frying, but it only appeared in the Song Dynasty.
"What is this, the widow has never seen such food, well, so sweet, delicious." King Zhao picked up another biscuit and put it in his mouth, only to feel that he had never tasted such sweetness, and it was extremely delicious.
"This is a biscuit, the king, a local specialty that the king brought back from his travels abroad, and now there are only some left, just to entertain the king." The way the biscuits were made, Wang Li didn't remember it, Suo Xìng said nonsense, anyway, King Zhao couldn't get to the bottom of it.
The biscuits were delicious, and King Zhao ate several biscuits in succession before he focused on the dark chocolate, he carefully picked up a piece, and then bit down on the next piece.
"Why is it bitter?" Just after eating the sweet biscuits, at this time to eat bitterness, even a trace, Zhao Wang immediately tasted, he was a little puzzled, how could Mr. Wang come up with such bitter food?
It's just that after a while, the chocolate melted in his mouth, and the previous bitterness instantly turned into sweetness, and there is bitterness before sweetness, under this contrast, the chocolate taste is already sweet and greasy, at this time, in Zhao Wang's feeling, it is really delicious to the extreme, but he has never tasted such delicious food.
"First bitter and then sweet, this food is extraordinary, but I don't know what it is?"
"This food, called chocolate, is named after the local pronunciation, and the main ingredient is a plant fruit abundant in a country in the far west. Wang Li replied casually.
At this moment, Pei'er led the twin beauties out of the side door next to the hall with two clay pots, and first saluted King Zhao before Wang Li. "Sir, boiling water is ready."
Wang Li got up directly, took a clay pot from Tian Zhen's hand, and then walked to King Zhao, personally poured water for him, poured boiling water into the bowl, and in an instant, a strong fragrance came out of the bowl, King Zhao took a long breath, and was intoxicated by this fragrance, but Wang Li was secretly amused.
"King, please wait for a while, wait for my reminder, just wait until the dough is boiled in boiling water, and then it can be eaten with a slight stirring with bamboo chopsticks." Wang Li said, poured water for himself, and waited carefully.
Zhao Wang, who was sitting in the master seat of the living room, looked at the two bowls in front of him, stretched his neck from time to time, and inhaled the fragrant water vapor that evaporated from the bowls, and looked intoxicated.
The girls who had just brought boiling water to Wang Li stood behind Wang Li, and they were also drooling at the two bowls.
After about two minutes, Wang Li picked up the bamboo chopsticks and tried to stir them, thinking that it was okay: "Wang, now you can stir the dough sauce evenly." ”
Zhao Wang learned from Wang Li's example, stirred with bamboo chopsticks, and the fragrance wafting out of the air became more and more intense, stirring a few times, he found that the boiling water in the bowl had completely turned into the sauce Yan Sè, and he couldn't help but pick up a handful of noodles and eat it.
It's so delicious, this will, King Zhao can't even care about the comments, and eats it directly one bite after another, only hating that his mouth is not open enough, and a bowl of noodles is eaten by him quickly, and then he doesn't care about the appearance, so he directly picks up the bowl and starts drinking the soup.
Gulped-down the soup in three or five sips, and then picked up another bowl, doing so, such a fast action, Wang Li was dumbfounded, and Zhao Ding, the guard next to King Zhao, swallowed his saliva when he saw it, just thinking, what kind of delicious it is, so that the king who is used to eating delicious food is so out of shape.
The three girls looked at the king like this, and their eyes were fixed on the two bowls of noodles in front of the king's table, and their beautiful eyes seemed to be about to shine.
"Whew!" King Zhao ate two packs of instant noodles in one go, closed his eyes, stroked his stomach with both hands and panted, and after a while, he touched a handful of sweat on his head.
"Sir's noodles are so delicious, just like the bottle of wine that Mr. gave to the widow, after drinking that wine, all the wine in the world became water, and now after eating Mr.'s noodles, how can the widow eat those foods?"
"I have heard that in the past, there were people in the country of Qi who were the best at cooking, and Qi Huan Gong ate his dishes, and other people's dishes were no longer easy to eat, and they couldn't leave it ever since. At that time, I still thought about how there could be such a delicious delicacy that people could not live without, but now that I think about it, it is sitting in the well and watching the sky, Mr.'s cook, such a simple preparation, compared to the legendary Yi Ya, I don't know how much higher. ”
Wang Li knew who Yi Ya was, and legend has it that he cooked his son to Qi Huan's special chef. This Yi Ya is the best at cooking, and legend has it that Qi Huan Gong ate his food, and other people's food can no longer be eaten.
Loving the house and Wu, Qi Huangong regarded Yi Ya as a cronie, everything could be trusted, Guan Zhong was about to die, and he used it as a substitute for Guan Zhong.
Before Guan Zhong died, he said to Duke Huan that he must not reuse villains like Yi Ya, otherwise he would bring disaster to him, and Gong Huan only said that Yi Ya loved him, and even his parents and children were willing to cook and serve him, but he didn't listen.
As a result, as soon as he fell ill and could not govern himself, Na Yiya erected a high wall, closed the palace gate, and cut off all contact between Huan Gong and the outside world, and actually starved this chūn Qiu overlord to death, and after a few months, when the palace gate was looked at again, his body was completely decomposed.
This Yi Ya is also a wonderful flower in the kitchen in history, a classic endorsement of the villain's image. It's a pity that Duke Qi Huan was wise and martial in his early years, and he was able to dominate the world with a weak Qi, but he couldn't help but die so miserably.
This King Zhao said that I am worse than Yi Ya, but he does not know what I am planning, how can it be compared with Yi Ya? Wang Li recalled Yi Ya's life and thought so.
"If the king likes this bread, if he has time, he will come to the king's house, but the production of this bread and sauce is a little difficult, and it requires some secret techniques that only I can perform, and it consumes a lot of my jīng energy, and I can't do much in January."
"It turned out to be specially made with secret arts, no wonder it was so delicious." King Zhao suddenly realized with a face: "Mr. still needs to think about other things, and he has to refine medicine, and he has to plan for my Zhao country after rì, but he can't consume too much jīng power, this kind of dough, it's better to make less."
"Thank you for your concern, the king is still able to make a few meals of bread between January and January, so the king can relax." This kind of instant noodles, if you eat too much, it is tasteless, and only when everything is difficult can others know that it is valuable, Wang Li plans to do so.
"That's good, if Mr. Rì Hou can make the bread, but he must not forget the widow, he must talk to Zhao Ding when the time comes, otherwise, after eating Mr. This bread, the taste of other foods after eating Mr. is like chewing wax, how will the rì child live."
"But the gentleman has to take responsibility for me." is responsible for you, Wang Li didn't know how to think of that TV series, and he almost didn't throw it up.
"King, after the meal, it is not advisable to move big, but it is advisable to move small, the words of health are said, walk a hundred steps after the meal, live to ninety-nine, we might as well go to the backyard, I will go to get the seeds, arrange for the servants to open an acre of land, dig a good seed pit, and we can start sowing."
"Walking a hundred steps after dinner, living to ninety-nine, so smooth and smooth, it really makes sense, sir, then let's go." King Zhao took a deep breath, held his stomach and got up from the ground.
"Zhao Ding, put these two plates away for me, and I'll take them back to the palace." Zhao Wang's two bowls of instant noodles had a round stomach, and he couldn't eat the peanuts and biscuits on the table at this time, so he had to pack them back.
After Wang Li finished eating a bowl of noodles, he also got up, and then motioned to the third girl and left the table directly.
When Wang Li and King Zhao left and went to the backyard, the three girls quickly picked up the bowl of instant noodles, swept the two plates, and ran together to share the food.
