Chapter 146
Looking at the container full of peppercorn powder in front of him, Xia Yu couldn't help frowning and said, "Such a big pot of sauce, which is filled with so much peppercorn powder, aren't you afraid of destroying all these sauces?"
"These peppercorns are processed by a special process, so they are very soft and definitely not easy to damage!" Xiaocui said.
Xia Yu reached out and picked up a piece of pepper powder and sniffed it gently!
The taste of this peppercorn powder is very pungent!
And Xia Yu also felt a strong smell of peppercorns!
The smell is very uncomfortable!
However, Xia Yu still knows a lot about pepper powder, so he just sniffed it lightly a few times and was not dizzy, but he still hates the smell very much!
Xia Yu threw all these peppercorns aside, then picked up another sauce and took a sip gently!
Xia Yu took a sip of the sauce, and immediately felt extremely bitter in his mouth!
However, Xia Yu didn't spit it out, after all, so many pepper powders mixed together, it was really unpleasant, and Xia Yu didn't want to waste these pepper powders. He threw all the remaining peppercorn powder into a bowl, then handed the bowl to Xiao Cui and said, "Another bowl!"
"Okay!" Xiao Cui said happily, "Childe, please wait!"
Xiao Cui turned to leave, while Xia Yu stood in the courtyard and looked around!
Although the food in the courtyard is fresh, Xia Yu always feels like something is missing!
"What's missing?" Xia Yu muttered to himself.
Suddenly, Xia Yu saw a bud on a tree!
"Hey, what kind of flower is this? Why does it look so familiar? Xia Yu thought to himself, so he looked up at the tree!
Looking at this, Xia Yu was completely confused!
Because Xia Yu knows this flower!
Isn't this the violet he picked up on the top of the mountain?
Xia Yu has seen this kind of flower several times, and this flower is also very rare, so Xia Yu can recognize it at a glance.
Only now the violets have withered!
And now this violet is hanging on the branches!
Looking at the huge violet buds on the branches, Xia Yu was very shocked..
The flower bud of this violet is very rare, and the violet bud is in a budding state, and when it is fully bloomed, its petals will show a purple-black, and the violet at this time is the most beautiful!
And its floral fragrance is also very strong, and the smell is particularly intoxicating!
The violet petals are also very beautiful, and Xia Yu even picked a large bunch when he was on the top of the mountain!
It's a pity that this bud has not fully bloomed, and if this bud is fully blooming, it will be even more beautiful!
"Young Master Xia, this flower is *** in our store, it is very special, if Childe likes it, I will send you two pots back tomorrow!" At this time, Xiaocui ran back with the container of sauce, and she said to Xia Yu excitedly.
"Two pots?" Xia Yu frowned slightly, and then asked, "How many catties does this flower weigh?"
"It's almost there!" Xiaocui said.
"With such a large volume, I'm afraid it's six or seven hundred catties, right?" Xia Yu said.
"Hmm!" Xiao Cui nodded and said, "This violet flower is very cherished, if it weren't for my boss's willingness, I wouldn't have been able to let Childe taste it, now these peppercorn powders have been collected by us and are ready to be used to make sauce, if Childe likes it, bring it back!"
"Hmm!" Xia Yu nodded.
"Thank you, Childe, for appreciating the light!" Xiao Cui said happily.
"Hehe, you're welcome!" Xia Yu said with a smile.
"By the way, Childe, I served Childe a cup just now, Childe tastes how it tastes!" Xiaocui said.
"Okay!" Xia Yu said with a smile, and then took a sip of the sauce container!
"Huh?" Xia Yu said in slight surprise.
"How? Tastes good, right? Cui asked excitedly.
"Not bad
! Xia Yu nodded.
This sauce is really delicious, not only sweet and silky, but also very refreshing, very much in line with Xia Yu's appetite, so this sauce is perfect for him!
"Great!" Xiao Cui said excitedly.
"Then I'll have another bowl!" Xia Yu said with a smile.
"Okay!" Xiao Cui answered excitedly, and then went to fill a bowl of sauce!
Xia Yu took another sip, this sauce melts in the mouth, dissolves in the mouth, it is simply a magical thing!
"Wow! It's delicious! Xia Yu exclaimed.
"Of course!" "The flavor of this sauce is very mellow and very delicious, and if you are not a person who loves to drink alcohol, you will definitely not know the taste of the sauce!"
"I'll taste it!" Xia Yu said, then took a sip of the sauce!
The sauce was very thick, but it melted in the mouth and in the throat, it was very refreshing, and Xia Yu felt that it was the most delicious sauce he had ever tasted. And Xia Yu felt that the peppercorn powder in the sauce should be mixed with a lot of violet seeds.
This makes people look forward to how delicious the peppercorn powder in the sauce is!
After eating, Xiaocui packed up the dishes and chopsticks to wash, and then left the courtyard.
Xia Yu looked around, and also felt that there was nothing valuable in this courtyard, so Xia Yu decided to go back to the room to rest!
Back in the house, Xia Yu sat cross-legged on the bed!
"I must hurry up and improve my cultivation, when I cultivate to the foundation building realm, my combat power will skyrocket, and even if I encounter a ninth-level Qi cultivation master, I will be able to fight with him!" Xia Yu thought secretly, and then he took out a pill from the Qiankun bag and swallowed it!
Then, Xia Yu began to practice in retreat!
......
The next morning, Xia Yu got up and freshened up!
After breakfast, Xia Yu followed Xiaocui to the kitchen!
The sauce made by Xiao Cui is really delicious!
A large pot of sauce is poured over the violet flowers, and the sauce is scooped out of various jars, so each jar is filled with peppercorn powder!
After breakfast, Xia Yu and Xiaocui went to buy some pepper powder, and then began to brew the sauce!
Xia Yu has lived here for more than half a year, so he is still very familiar with the situation here, and his brewing skills are also perfect!
In the process of brewing Xia Yu, Xiao Cui has been staring at it!
At this moment, she must not take it lightly!
Although Xia Yu's skills are powerful, there is only one person after all, if he fails, wouldn't it be a big loss?
This time the matter is not trivial, Xiao Cui doesn't want the peppercorn powder she has worked so hard to brew to be ruined.
So Xiao Cui was watching from the side, for fear that something would go wrong with the things brewed by Xia Yu. It's no wonder that although Xia Yu's winemaking skills are good, there is only one person after all, if you make a mistake, it will be troublesome, and no one can afford such a loss!
Xia Yu didn't expect this to happen, so he was also very cautious!
Don't dare to be sloppy!
Sichuan pepper powder is marinated according to the proportion of raw materials, so the sauce that Xia Yu needs to make is not complicated, just pour the Sichuan pepper powder into the pot and steam it!
The peppercorn powder is distributed according to the amount, Xia Yu poured all the peppercorn powder into the pot, and then heated the oil!
Then Xia Yu began to put pepper powder into the pot!
"Oh, Childe, stop it, if you do this, the peppercorn powder will be steamed dry!" Xiao Cui hurriedly shouted.
"It's okay!" Xia Yu said.
Xiao Cui could only give up after hearing this, after all, Xia Yu's words were not easy for her to refute.
Soon, Xia Yu put all the pepper powder into the pot!
Then Xia Yu took a shovel and began to shovel the lid of the pot, ready to scoop up the pepper powder!
However, just when Xia Yu shoveled the lid of the pot, suddenly a strange breath came, this smell was
A little quirky!
Xia Yu frowned, sniffed carefully, and then he opened his eyes and looked!
Because he smelled a very faint fishy stench!
This smell was very faint, and if it weren't for Monk Xia Yu's sharp nose, I'm afraid he wouldn't have felt it at all. But he could smell it very clearly and feel that it was coming from inside the lid!
What does this smell smell like?
Xia Yu was very puzzled!
Could it be that there are monsters hidden in the pot?
If that's the case, it's a lot of fun!
If there are demon beasts, then the harvest of summer rain will be great!
Xia Yu thought, then opened the lid of the pot, and then lifted the lid of the pot and flipped the peppercorn powder in the pot!
Sichuan pepper powder is very spicy, and it is a concentrated type, and most people will not eat this kind of thing, because this kind of thing is very strong, and if you eat it, it will definitely cause diarrhea. But Xia Yu is different, Xia Yu's body is unmatched, this little poison can't help him at all, and for him, these peppercorn powders are nothing at all, so he doesn't care at all!
At this time, Xiao Cui walked over and saw the pepper powder in the pot, Xiao Cui immediately said, "Childe, what are you doing?"
"Sichuan peppercorns!" Xia Yu said.
"Sichuan peppercorns, what is this?" Xiao Cui asked in surprise.
"These peppercorns can be used to make sauce!" Xia Yu explained.
"What!" Xiao Cui was shocked.
"Sauce is for drinking, not for stir-frying!" Xia Yu explained.
"Oh! I see! Xiao Cui said suddenly.
Xia Yu continued, "I've found a way to make the sauce, I'll teach you later!"
"Hmm! Thank you, Childe! Xiao Cui said excitedly.
"We're both polite!" Xia Yu said with a smile.
Xia Yu's brewing skills are very powerful, but he is only one person now, so he can only take his time step by step, and he has to keep a low profile, and he must not show his stuffing, otherwise his previous efforts will be wasted.
Xia Yu's reputation is too bad now, if someone finds out, it will be terrible!
The sauce made by Xia Yu is very delicate, but not rich!
Sichuan pepper powder is a very precious ingredient, and it is very rare, and Xia Yu is reluctant to waste these Sichuan pepper powder on cooking this sauce!
And peppercorn powder is very precious, so when he brews, he must be very careful, otherwise there will be a great risk. After all, once this kind of thing is stolen or snatched by someone, it is very serious!
The sauce brewed by Xia Yu is very bright, but not rich!
"It smells so good!" Xiao Cui couldn't help but praise after seeing the sauce.
"Really, huh?" Xia Yu said with a smile.
"It's very fragrant!" Xiao Cui nodded.
Xia Yu continued to control the flame and stirred the peppercorn powder at the bottom of the pot!
After all the peppercorn powder in the pot was stirred evenly, Xia Yu began to pour the peppercorn powder into the pot.
After pouring all the peppercorn powder into the pot, Xia Yu boiled the oil again, then put in an appropriate amount of vinegar, soy sauce, pepper and shredded ginger, and finally poured the soy sauce on the surface of the pepper powder to make the sauce more rich, so as to ensure the nutritional value of these pepper powder!
Xia Yu brewed the sauce very slowly, and it seeped out bit by bit!
At this time, Xiao Cui stood aside very nervously, not daring to blink her eyes, for fear of missing something good!
Soon, Xia Yu poured out all the sauce, and then poured all the sauce into a small bowl, this bowl is a particularly large one, enough to hold about three catties of sauce!
"That's it!" Xia Yu put the sauce into a small porcelain bowl, then put it on the cutting board, and said to Xiao Cui, "Xiao Cui, take this bowl out and let everyone taste it!"
"Okay!" Xiaocui said.
"Wait one
Under! Xia Yu stopped her and said, "You go and get a bowl, I'm going to hold two bowls, and then you can get some peppercorn powder, and these peppercorn powders are all in it!"
"Yes!" Cui nodded.
Xia Yu handed the spatula to Xiao Cui, then went to the kitchen to find a spoon with a long handle, and then gently dug on the edge of the bowl of pepper powder, and immediately dug a deep pit!
Xiao Cui took a spoon and poured the pepper powder into the bowl, and when the bowl was full, Xia Yu asked Xiao Cui to pour the remaining pepper powder into it, and then began to stir.
After Xiao Cui left with the bowl, Xia Yu began to study!
Just now he looked at the door of the kitchen for a long time, but he didn't see what these peppercorns were, so he was also very curious, and he wanted to find out what these peppercorns were now.
This time, Xia Yu directly poured out the pepper powder!
As soon as the peppercorn powder was poured out, Xia Yu dipped it with his fingers, and then put it in his mouth and licked it!
When Xia Yu tasted the pepper powder, his face was suddenly happy, and then he laughed, he finally knew what these pepper powder was, it turned out that these pepper powder is Sichuan pepper powder, and it is a very rare kind of Sichuan pepper powder, and the yield of this pepper powder is very low, very rare, so there is almost none, Xia Yu on the earth, once also ate this kind of Sichuan pepper powder, so Xia Yu is still very familiar with the taste of this Sichuan pepper powder. Of course, the yield of this kind of pepper powder is very rare, so it is also very expensive, a pound of pepper powder costs ten yuan a catty!
But this kind of peppercorn powder is not too expensive for Xia Yu, he is on the earth, and there should be no problem with earning more than two million a year, so it is not difficult to buy a pound of pepper powder for Xia Yu!
"The taste of this peppercorn powder is amazing, even more delicious and sweeter than the sauce I brewed!" Xia Yu said very excitedly.
The taste of the sauce is extracted from the aroma of Sichuan pepper powder, although the fragrance of the sauce is very strong, but it lacks the taste of Sichuan pepper powder itself, and this taste happens to be the taste of the sauce itself, and it is precisely because of this that the sauce can become so delicious!
Xia Yu cut a small pinch of peppercorn powder with a knife, then spread the peppercorn powder on the sauce, and finally poured the sauce into a small dish and put it into a small box!
This little box is wrapped in cloth and has two layers inside, each with a small plate!
