Chop all the garlic and mince all the onions. "
There were so many people coming, of course, it was impossible for Xiao Luo to do it alone.
Fortunately, there were many people in the palace's kitchen, so she only had to give orders.
Nowadays, no one in Chang'an knows that there is a female chef in the family of Tang Ping, Marquis of Yinshan, who has mastered various novel cooking techniques.
Even the imperial chefs in the palace respect her as their teacher, and anyone who cooks in Chang'an is proud to have learned under her.
Before she came, Tang Ping asked someone to clean all the scallops and oysters he was going to eat.
Then the grills were set up one by one, and several large steamers were also set up.
The scallops and oysters are steamed until they open, and then lined up on the grill.
Each one was grilled with a sizzling sound, and then the sauce prepared with onion, garlic and sauce was spooned on top of each scallop or oyster.
All types of large shrimps, such as Pipi shrimps, are also cooked with their backs open and the shrimp threads drawn, and then grilled directly on the charcoal fire.
Soon the whole palace was filled with a fresh fragrance.
Tang Ping sniffed and introduced proudly: "This oyster is known as a beauty salon for women and a gas station for men."
"What is a beauty salon?"
"What is a gas station?"
The former question was asked by Changsun and other concubines, and the latter question was asked by Li Yuanji and several others.
The word "beauty" is easy to understand, but no one knows what kind of place a beauty salon is.
As for refueling, they still can't figure it out for a while.
Tang Ping was just casually talking about the advertisements for grilled oyster shops in the past, but he didn't expect to receive so many questions.
Fortunately, when he was waiting just now, he was bored and did some Baidu research on the effects of oysters, so now he came right out: "According to the "Compendium of Materia Medica": oysters can cure weakness, aphrodisiac, detoxify, replenish the qi and blood of men and women, and make the skin healthy. Tender and resistant to aging and fatigue.”
He has already given the book "Compendium of Materia Medica" to Taiyuan Hospital, so now there is no doubt that he quoted from classics.
It's just that the woman's eyes light up when she hears the word "delicate skin", and the man's eyes light up even more when he hears the word aphrodisiac.
When I looked at the oysters on the grill, I felt they were even more tempting.
"Xiaoluo, are these oysters ready?"
Xiao Luo nodded: "Actually, you can eat oysters raw, but there may be tiny parasites in them, so it's better to eat them cooked."

As soon as Xiao Luo finished speaking, Li Yuanji took an oyster with his hands. The calluses on his hands from practicing as a gunman showed their advantage at this time, and they didn't feel it was too hot.
He picked a piece with chopsticks, blew on it twice and put it into his mouth. His mouth couldn't bear to be hot. Even so, Li Yuanji didn't want to spit it out.
I just feel that this oyster has a unique umami flavor, which is combined with the slightly burnt garlic flavor. One oyster was solved.
"It's delicious, it's really delicious!" Li Yuanji said with joy, and then he heard a gentle cough behind him.
Turning around, Li Shimin also picked a piece of oyster, but it was for his eldest grandson. The cough just now was made by his wife.
Li Yuanji immediately understood that at this time, of course, he still had to give his wife some face, so he and Li Jiancheng began to show off their affection. Only Tang Ping was the poor one in the middle, feeling like he was being stuffed with handfuls of dog food. .
After several people had finished feasting, Li Yuanji took a deep breath and said, "This food is delicious, but it's a pity that it doesn't last long, even in the ice cellar."
Tang Ping nodded: "That's true. In fact, I can teach Wang Qingluan how to make ice. After catching it, freeze it immediately and send it to Chang'an, but the price will be a bit higher."
"The method of making ice you are talking about is not using your freezer, right? How much can be frozen?" Li Yuanji touched his belly and looked at the oysters on the grill. He really couldn't eat any more.
"Of course not, they use saltpeter to make ice." Tang Ping said casually, leaving Li Yuanji and others stunned.
Of course they know about saltpeter, which is one of the raw materials used by Li Tai to make gunpowder, but they didn't expect that it can also be used to make ice?
But without doubting Tang Ping's words, Li Yuanji just said: "If you, kid, had told me earlier that you could use saltpeter to make ice, you would have saved me so much in the ice cellar this year."
In fact, until the Sui Dynasty, the royal family already had a set of special ice collection, tribute ice, ice storage and gift ice.
However, after Li Shimin took the throne, he tried to learn from it and canceled the tribute ice. He only hid a small amount in winter to store some food and use it in the hottest period of summer.
Now that he heard that ice can be made directly from saltpeter in the summer, Li Yuanji was naturally a little heartbroken because he had recently found someone to save money for ice.
Tang Ping has long known that the lives of these brothers in the royal family are really not very good.

Wealthy, but had never found an opportunity, this time he said: "How about some aunts and I start this barbecue business together?"
"These seafood won't last long, and we can't eat them all ourselves, so why not sell the excess to get some money."
He didn't say that he would do it directly with his uncles. After all, they were either emperors or princes, so their status was there.
According to the rules, the eldest grandson and the princess are in charge of the money in their respective internal treasury, so I directly asked them to do this business together, which meant that the money earned was directly put into the internal treasury.
Li Shimin knew that Tang Ping wanted to make money with them, but he still hesitated: "As your aunt, it's not good to compete with the people for profit, right?"
"Second uncle, what you said is wrong!" Tang Ping disagreed: "This business is rare for ordinary people to do. They have mastered the method of making ice, and they have to bring this high-end ice cream from the East Vietnam seaside thousands of miles away. It’s not something they can do to deliver fresh seafood to Chang’an. As for selling it, ordinary people can’t afford it.”
"This thing is just to satisfy one's appetite. If there is any nutritional value, it is not much better than eating kelp."
The so-called dietary supplements basically follow this principle. To talk about efficacy without regard to measurement is to be a hooligan.
The eldest grandson and several princesses were naturally excited. Their respective residences looked pretty good, but in terms of cash, they didn't have much cash. Sometimes it was hard to buy anything.
But this matter still requires the consent of several elders in the family.
Tang Ping continued: "In fact, every new industry can bring new job opportunities. We want to sell barbecue. It is easy to bake. Do we have to hire the chefs in the house? Naturally, we need to recruit some honest and reliable people. The people can do it."
"If we want to do it for a long time, we can also recruit people to go to Dongyue to collect these things, and then make ice and preserve them and send them back to Chang'an. These require a lot of manpower and how many families can be fed. To put it bluntly, we still make money from those rich people The money is used to support the people who work these livelihoods.”
When Li Shimin heard the words "making money from rich people", he finally agreed. He was now interested in this matter.
I wish I could order the rich to take 90% of their family money and distribute it to the people of the Tang Dynasty.
Of course, he knew that this was just a fantasy, but it was actually possible to open their money bags by doing business.
