Chapter 787: Money Meat

And the origin of the dish he is going to make is actually quite worth mentioning.

Longxi money meat, also known as Longxi butterfly meat, money meat, Meile meat, known as "Longyuan a must", as early as the Sui Dynasty, that is, the famous Sui Yang Emperor when he toured the west, was included in the list of court tributes by this emperor.

The reason why the word "Longxi" is added is that there is also a dish called "money meat" in the Guizhou cuisine, and the second is that this kind of cherished famous product in the northwest is the most precious produced in Longxi.

Legend has it that in the ancient Chang'an area every year in the cold winter wax moon, there are many small workshops and small mills to slaughter the donkeys that have lost their service power, the meat at that time is precious, and naturally any part can not be wasted, so under the joint action of people's wisdom and time, there is such a legendary delicacy.

The finished product of money meat is about a foot long, black and red through dark gold, and must be cut into small round slices when eating, with a small hole (urethra) in the middle.

As for when its other name Merlot meat began to appear, it is impossible to verify, as soon as Yang Guifei and Tang Minghuang loved the deliciousness and nourishment of this thing (well, this night Shengge is not in front of the court statement, it seems to make a little sense to say this?). "A ride on the red dust concubine smiled, no one knew that it was lychees" Emperor Tang Ming transported to Chang'an for Yang Guifei is not only Lingnan lychees, but also a large number of royal tributes, the money and meat from Longxi are impressive, and it is the meaning of the Pomeranian smile.

Concubine laughed and later became a lychee, the name of Merlot meat and its succession are not said for the time being, but it is the businessmen who come and go to Chang'an to make this "money meat" with the beautiful meaning of wealth wide into the world, many wealthy businessmen and giants in the old days, there must be this dish on the banquet.

Xu is to avoid the suspicion of "bumping shirts", the name "Merlot Meat" is suddenly related to the three less fortunate emperors, that is, King Zhou You, Emperor Yang of Sui and Emperor Tang Ming, at that time, people attached less importance to the so-called freedom of speech than it does now, and this kind of thing is always not easy to put on the lips of parents to make a short-term evaluation.

In short, this dish with a history of more than 1,000 years has become more and more refined and attaches great importance to nourishing and health preservation after being included in the ranks of royal tributes, especially its secret recipes have a big increase or decrease almost every hundred years, all of which have been improved by the famous doctors and famous chefs at that time.

Starting from the original small workshop, a donkey in a small workshop from the prime of life to the twilight old donkey with declining physical strength, there is a great possibility that he has never seen a beautiful female donkey with double eyelids even once, and I don't know if it will go through the process of turning pink to black, but it is said that only with such an old donkey whose kidney water is not lost and Yuanyang is not leaked, the appearance of the finished product can look black and black with gold in purple, and the inside can also show the most perfect amber gold.

Lin Chou was happy, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, "the sword blade is sharpened from the sharpening", and this panacea-level term actually has a time when it collapses.

After the first time of the ice bellows, it needs to be adjusted to natural light for drying.

It's worthy of being pirated with a shy face in the slot system, and I don't know how Lao Xue figured it out, this thing is really easy to use.

After the dry donkey whip was taken out, it was completely a black, wrinkled, and hard thing, and it knocked on the board with his hand, and it actually made a "boom" sound like a drumstick.

Everyone's faces are full of funny,

"Yo, the chickens are hard."

"Boss Lin, you're too bad, everyone is like this, can't you give the chickens a holiday?"

Lin Chou threw the donkey whip into the spice pot and simmered it over a warm fire, so that the dark soy sauce mixed with various spices soaked it thoroughly.

The old soup with thick oil red sauce does not have the slightest oil star, avoiding any possible mismatching, and the spices can only be dried and fragrant, and there is no longer a need to specially remove the nitrate and drying in the ice bellows, which has already been completed.

The significance of this dish is also this, the donkey whip itself is difficult to get rid of, in addition to time, no matter how good the seasoning is difficult to completely control, to try to ensure the original flavor while not using too many spices, nitrate and drying is almost the perfect solution.

Nitrate only needs to be made once, and stewed and dried but need to be reciprocated several times, each time the brine used has subtle differences, the more obvious is that the brine should be lighter than one time, so repeated, in order to maximize the flavor of the donkey whip.

Even if the ordinary donkey whip is marinated after there is a foot of more than a length of the foot, it is difficult to eat it at one time, the people at that time will eat as much as the donkey whip is marinated, and the rest is dried again, and then the next time you eat it can be taken out and marinated once, and then people will find that within a certain limit, the more times the donkey whip is marinated, the more beautiful the taste, this practice has been handed down.

This is a rather time-consuming and labor-intensive dish, and few people will make it specially, or it will not be made like Lin Chou every time, which is too wasteful.

Even Lin Chou would need at least a month or so to make this dish without the cooperation of the ice bellows, and it would take at least three times to marinate the money meat before it could be called authentic money meat, and it could be taken out for people to enjoy.

After a few rounds, Huang Dashan's dark face was burning, and his eyes were dull.

“... Linzi, still coming, not yet?? ”

Lin Chou said with a smile,

"After mixing on Yanhui Mountain for so long, you still haven't understood a truth, delicious, often requires a long wait."

Shan Ye nodded, his eyes widened,

"I understand this truth, three-year-old children understand it, but I wasn't the one who lit the fire at that time!"

Lin Chou choked,

"Ahem, I suddenly remembered a story..."

A circle of people was impatient to wait, and when I said that there was a story, I heard a little spirit,

"About, that thing in the pot? Let's hear about it~"

"That's it."

Lin Chou said,

"Let's just say that for this Longxi money and meat, I also took a big man to come to the Qing Dynasty in the twenty-sixth year of Guangxu before the catastrophe, and Lafayette fled to Chang'an."

(Ahem, insert a sentence, you know the name of the place, the reason for the escape should be known, and it is not easy to write it, but Du Niang.) )

"Shaanxi Governor Duan Fang dedicated Chang'an and Longxi special money meat to the Queen Mother, after tasting only feel strong and chewy full of fragrance, the Queen Mother Fengyan Dayue is very fond of it, so he ordered tribute, it is said that it is three thousand catties per year The index down, cough cough, I estimate that people who know the origin of this dish can cry on the spot No business is not killed."

All rejoice,

"Three thousand pounds... I'll go... After that, is there only a gelding donkey in Chang'an? ”

"Galeries Lafayette's taste is really heavy..."

"Hey, what is this, I've heard Shen Daru say that he has been drinking human milk... It is said that the skin is smooth and tender when you get older, and I don't know if it's true or not. ”

Lin Chou continued,

"Later, someone said the origin and rarity of money and meat, and then the back-end party was transferred to H Nanbu as the political envoy of H Nanbu because of his meritorious service, and he was promoted to the governor of H Bei, 28 years, acting governor of Huguang, and later served as the governor of Liangjiang, hey, according to rumors, a large part of the 'merit of taking over the car' came from here."

The crowd was speechless,

“...”

"It's... Feel... Weird. ”

Lin Chou said,

"I'll just say that, everyone wants to have fun, as for whether it's true or not, I don't dare to guarantee that I'm afraid that Shen Daru will run over and point at my nose and scold my mother if he knows that I am nonsense."

Chen Qingyu looked shocked, swallowed his saliva,

"It's not easy to be a chef these days... There's so much you need to know that you can't afford to mess with. ”

Huang Dashan put down the burning stick and exhaled,

"This one talks so much when he cooks, and I don't usually see an aunt like him."

Chen Qingyu nodded,

"A man who has the ability and works hard is really handsome."

Huang Dashan's eyes were strange, Chen Qingyu suddenly woke up, and added,

"But I'm different, I'm extremely handsome at any time~!"

(Chen Qingyu: Mad is so dangerous, I was almost misunderstood.) )

Huang Dashan pinched his chin and glanced him up and down a few times,

"I don't need to explain, it's too deliberate."

“...”

Lin Chou suddenly interrupted the embarrassment of the two,

"Okay, okay~"

Everyone followed and smelled the fragrance for most of the day, and it was dark, and they finally looked forward to it.

The huge donkey whip has been dried and marinated several times, and has been reduced from more than three meters long to about two meters, which is still about the thickness of a person's waist, and the black reflection on the board is faintly revealed from the smooth part of a mushroom-like top.

Generally, the money meat will be cut into round slices or oblique knife slices to facilitate plating, the name of butterfly meat comes from this, after the oblique knife is sliced, the center of the oval thin slice has a "money eye", which is just like the two pairs of wings of a butterfly or the tail feathers of a peacock when placed opposite each other.

Don't look at the appearance is not outstanding, but the flesh inside the money meat presents an oily amber gold, and the translucent texture can be said to be shining under the gradually increasing lights around it, and a faint fragrance instantly diffuses in a small area.

It's a sight that makes people forget its previous form, and if no one speaks if it's just served, the person who eats the food won't be able to figure out what it is.

"Shhhh This smell..."

"It's amazing my boss Lin, it's so fragrant!"

"Hiss, smell the hardness of the chicken~"

"Poof... Can you not keep repeating this sentence..."

Lin Chou rolled his eyes.

After cutting a plate, I tasted a slice under the gaze of everyone,

"Ahem, try the poison, although it has been tested before, but after all, it is a sixth-order creature, so it's better to be careful."

Everyone's focus is obviously different from what Lin Chou thought,

"How's it going, how does it taste?"

"Needless to say, the thief pulls delicious!"

"Taste it, taste it... Hey, I'm dying..."

Lines of black handwriting suddenly appeared on Lin Chou's retina,

"The donkey is poor:

Randomly seal one to three of the most proud bloodline abilities and alienation skills of the person who eats this dish and transform them into one of the main attributes that can be selected according to their power, including but not limited to mental power, life force, physical strength, and strength, if not selected, it will be automatically filled to the highest value of the attribute for a duration of six hours.

The stronger the ability, the higher the attribute value of the transformation, and the specific number refers to the skill power, the amount of improvement, and the essential height.

(Note: ji, this ji is not the other ji.) )”

Then, a tremendous force surged throughout his body.

Wait, wait...

Lin Chou's pupils were dilated, he tried the list of summoning attributes, but there was nothing, and he tried to summon the lying system, but it still didn't appear.

Damn, what's going on!

Didn't the system slip to Yanhui Mountain, why did it still come out with special effects?!

This is not the same as the last time Lin Chou was a half-crocodile, the unchangeable special effects carried by the beast itself are not within the scope of the system, and even if it appears, it is in the form of a vague "sixth sense" of Lin Chou, instead of being directly displayed on his retina in a similar way as a system prompt as it is now, isn't this the function of the system?

Lin Chou summoned the system again and again, but there was no reply, which made him have a certain feeling of doubt, and then this emotion was quickly killed by another emotion.

Lin Chou suddenly said,

"? System, a big watermelon? ”

"Eh~ There is a kind of beep you again, you beep me again, MMP will beep you every day, you beep again, your guts are fatter than your waist, can you tell who is the protagonist,!"

Nima, that's it!

Ahem, I'm ashamed to say it.

Spraying the groove system has always been Lin Chou's hard injury, and finally the system has changed back to the Xiaobawang version from a high-level intelligent brain, and this product suddenly shows off, it's just... It's just presumptuous!!

Wei Tianxing's fat hand dangled in front of Lin Chou's eyes,

"Hey, hey... Lin boy, what are you sending it?! ”

Lin Chou came back to his senses, saw everyone's worried expressions, hugged him and apologized and said,

"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you this dish this time, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat it."

Then he himself was suddenly stunned.

Huh?

Just because we can't eat it doesn't mean that others can't eat it!

Lin Chou asked anxiously,

"Who is that, General Ye and that guy, still drinking tea?"

Although everyone was puzzled, someone quickly replied,

"No... Switched to drinking... They had already started playing chess, and it seemed that they had a decisive battle until dawn. ”

Lin Chou picked up the plate and handed it to Wei Tianxing, and said solemnly,

"Go, find someone to send it to General Ye and that guy's table, and then let Lao Xue serve a few other dishes, just say that it was sent by Bafanglou, and you must find someone who understands."

Wei Tianxing's eyes turned, and his gaze shifted back and forth between Lin Chou and Qian Meat,

"You... Earnest? ”

Lin Chou nodded unusually seriously,

"Go back and explain, rest assured, it's absolutely not poisonous, whatever he wants!"

Everyone stayed for a minute, and suddenly realized something, and their faces were excited and incredible.

Wei Tianxing took a breath,

"Okay, then I'll send it over myself."

After Wei Tian walked, everyone gathered around,

"Boss Lin, let's talk about it~"

"Hey, I smell conspiracy."

"This dish, can you yin that kid?"

"No, it's useless to be yin, that ordinary person... The bloody corpse..."
