The scene suddenly turned into a mess, with shiny silver spoons being snatched back and forth by the guests, and bowls of clear soup were placed in front of them.
Montauban also grabbed a small bowl of clear soup. Smelling the unique aroma, he couldn't help but swallow. After a spoonful of delicious clear soup entered his mouth, Montauban suddenly became sluggish.
Isn’t this too fresh? Montauban searched for all the delicacies he had tasted in his memory bank, whether it was cold-water lobster in the North Sea, plump tuna in the Atlantic, or delicious oysters that the French are proud of.
The sum total of all the delicious things I have is not as good as this bowl of soup!
Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted loudly, "Your Majesty, can you let me also buy a share? One hundred thousand pounds, I subscribe for ten thousand pounds... God, if I can't drink such delicious food in the future, what will happen to me in the rest of my life?" How miserable!”
"And me, I also subscribe for one share. I also need this formula..."
The delicious clear soup with the source of freshness completely conquered everyone present. Just now, some people suspected that one hundred thousand pounds was a bit too high, but after tasting this unique delicacy, no one dared to say anything.
Benjamin was also stunned. He had to admit that these Chinese were born chefs. How could they make such delicious food? How did they get this delicious taste that surpassed any ingredients in nature?
But while he was tasting the delicious food, a trace of worry surged in his heart.
"Does such deliciousness all depend on the special formula of Xian Zhiyuan? If this formula is so magical, then Xiao Letian will definitely not let it go because of his intelligence. He will regard this formula as a tool to make money, and then try his best to make money from it. Europe grabs wealth..."
"Damn, if this spice really becomes popular, how much gold and silver will be lost! Absolutely not, no matter what method is used, we in the UK must get this recipe..."
The praises came like a flood, and the delicious taste of Xian Zhiyuan conquered everyone's taste buds. Xiao Letian smiled when he heard that many people continued to increase their investment in the purchase of 100,000 pounds.
"Dear Queen and distinguished guests, don't think of us Chinese as mercenary villains. Do you want the recipe? It's very simple..."
"The so-called clear soup is actually a kind of stock in Chinese cuisine. It is made of old hens, old ducks, pork bones, pigeons, ginseng and other ingredients and simmered over a slow fire for more than ten hours. The scum must be skimmed off at any time. …”
"Different chefs have their own different uses. For example, the clear soup this time added seafood ingredients such as Jiang Yuzhu and abalone... Slow stewing for more than ten hours is just the most basic. In fact, the real emphasis should be to ensure that the stew is cooked It’s the same in three days!”
"Haha, don't look at me like this. It takes three days to make soup... It's true that you never get tired of fine food and fine food. This is the ultimate enjoyment that Chinese literati have been pursuing since ancient times!"
"The long stewing can release all the deliciousness and nutrients in the ingredients into the soup. At this time, the soup is generally called thick soup or milk soup!"
"If you want to turn this thick soup into such a refreshing clear soup, you have to use a secret tool, commonly known as chicken putty in China!"
"Use the back of the knife... Remember to use the back of the kitchen knife, a Chinese cooking tool, to chop fresh chicken. Chop the whole piece of chicken into a paste-like chicken putty. This is the secret to making the soup clear!"
"When these chicken putties are put into the thick soup, the fiber of the chicken can absorb the impurities in the thick soup, and the thick soup will gradually turn into a clear soup..."
"At the same time, several layers of fine gauze must be overlapped for filtration. Generally, filtration is performed three times and chicken putty is added more than five times. The color of the soup will become so clear, and this process can also remove some odors in the soup... …”
"Your Majesty, the recipe for this clear soup is so simple. If your chef can't remember it, I can ask my subordinates to copy it..."
Now even the Queen was moved, "Oh my God! Just for this soup, the process is so complicated and takes so long? Don't you Chinese have anything else to do?"
Europeans are completely incomprehensible that it takes three days to make soup. European cuisine is not without troubles, but at best, it will be over if the chef is busy for half a day. Such a perverted thing, it often takes two or three days to prepare a soup. , but they can't do it.
The queen suddenly asked, "I guess it's not that simple. I heard that the head of state has a mysterious spice called the source of freshness. Is it included in this soup?"
"Yes, the source of freshness is my family's spice. It is expensive and takes a long time to make, but the unique taste added to the dishes can really enhance the deliciousness..."
The queen smiled meaningfully, "I wonder if the head of state is interested in selling this secret recipe?"
"This..." Xiao Letian hesitated immediately, and the guests at the scene also put down their tableware and looked at Xiao Letian with strange eyes.
This is really a bad choice. The secret recipe belongs to Xiao Letian. This is related to the future money-making plan in Europe. Since the British can sell opium to China and earn a lot of silver, then why can’t the Chinese sell MSG to Did Europe also earn gold and silver?
The trade deficit must be alleviated. The Chinese nation’s gold, silver and precious metals cannot always flow out like this!
It is definitely not for sale, and this formula is purely bragging by Xiao Letian. Once the British are told, they will suddenly realize it.
It's just kelp extract, but Xiao Letian can come up with so many tricks. By then, everyone in Europe will be wary of Xiao Letian, and no one will believe him anymore.
But can you pass the test without selling? The Queen herself offered a high price of 100,000 pounds, and Xiao Letian had no reason to refuse, both emotionally and rationally!
Did you really offend the Queen for a spice recipe?
Sure enough, it was the famous Queen Victoria in history, who put Xiao Letian in a dilemma with just a few words.
Prince Edward still had a good impression of Xiao Letian. He frowned and said, "Dear head of state, purchasing a spice formula for one hundred thousand pounds is a rare transaction in history. Do you still think we are not sincere?"
As he spoke, he reminded Xiao Letian with a warning look, "Do you still want to get the British credentials? You Chinese want to become an independent country recognized by all countries, but you can't get around the British hurdle!"
"Queen, please stop stripping your beard. Have you ever thought about Benjamin? Are you dreaming..."
Even Emperor Zai Chun's palms were sweating at this moment. He looked at the master nervously for fear that the word "no" would come out of his mouth.
Master! master! Didn’t you say before that the grand strategy to deal with Britain is to be forbearing? You can't forget your own principles!
