Today is a good day for Lant. He received two properties on the feudal land for free as well as the goods in the properties, and he was also able to personally prepare the delicacies of his hometown.
For Lant's men, today was very special because they first saw the lord, a viscount, go to the market where only non-magic people would go, bought an ordinary wild boar without any magic power, and returned to the Chamber of Commerce. Lant actually cut the wild boar meat himself with a knife.
Not only did Lant cut apart a whole pig himself, but he also spent a long time with Wendy to figure it out, and then asked the casual cooks to take the meat to the independent kitchen next to the main building and cook it himself.
His lord's yearning for delicious food shocked his subordinates.
Lant spent a long time gesturing and asked Wendy to draw a heating-related rune on a clay pot. This rune was a variant of the fire rune used to cook salt every day in the salt mine. Wendy had mastered it very early, but Lant required that this rune must be painted on the body and lid of the clay pot.
The smart Wendy probably understood what Lant meant, that is, after the jar is covered, the runes take effect and the jar is heated; once the lid is opened, the runes become invalid and the inside of the jar is no longer heated.
Lant described the principle of the pot to Wendy based on the idea of resistance wire in middle school. After dropping several pots, Wendy finally found inspiration. She drew two identical heating symbols on the symmetrical sides of the pot. text, and then drew three runes that conduct magic crystal magic on the outside of the lid, and set a magic crystal base on the top of the lid.
So Wendy created a clay pot that can adjust the heating level. According to the angle of the lid, it can be heated in the first level or the second level. The heating intensity of the second level is twice that of the first level. When heating is not needed, Just open the lid.
After making it, Wendy quickly came up with an improved plan, which was to draw the heating runes on the jar body in a 90-degree direction, and use ordinary ink to draw the same runes in the other two directions. This way it is still a lid, which can be adjusted by turning. It is non-heating/first-level heating/second-level heating.
When Wendy brought the painted jar to Lant, Lant was frying the candy color.
. . . . . .
The hard dish that Lant used to be best at was braised pig's trotters, braised pork ribs and braised pork in three hours.
First, boil the pig's trotters in boiling water and put them into the stew pot together with the stew ingredients. Then, chop the ribs and stew them with the pig's trotters. The pig's trotters need to be cooked for a longer time, so they are cooked first and put into the pot first.
Gather the pork belly, stir-fry until browned, then stir-fry the pork belly. After stir-frying, use the pork trotters and ribs soup to cook the pork belly. Stew the pork belly and pig trotters and ribs in separate pots.
The braised pork and pork trotters and ribs are put into the pot separately, but you can turn off the heat together. The pork belly needs to collect the juice at the end. You can also add hard-boiled eggs to the pot of ribs to make braised eggs, and you can put some tofu in the pot of pork belly. Festival.
Now the pig's trotters and ribs have been stewed, and the big iron pot is filled with the aroma that Lant is very familiar with. Wendy has never seen such a method, and has never even heard of a knight cooking by himself, but the tangy aroma Still made my mouth water.
Only when the braised pork was stewed did Lant notice that Wendy had come in.
"Just by twisting it like this, two heating magic patterns will heat up at the same time, and this way there will be only one. If you change it to this angle, it will not heat up." Wendy showed off happily.
"It's amazing. Did you just do it once? You are indeed a genius!" Lant exclaimed in shock, "Wait a minute, I will try it with an elbow to see the effect of heating."
If it were in Lant's hometown, if there was a similar brand-new invention, it would undoubtedly have huge commercial potential, but in this other world, Lant would not dare to say it. However, it seems that the biggest role of this jar is to follow the The march was carried out to ensure food and drink.
However, this jar is still of great significance to Lant. First of all, it shows that Lant has no problem with the idea of alchemy products, and can use magic patterns to expand its functions through combinations. Secondly, Wendy is indeed a wizard-level genius. .
Lant's meat had been stewing for several hours, and Lant had been in the kitchen testing Wendy's new achievements while brainstorming with Wendy.
For Lant, electrical appliances from previous lives can be made into equivalent items using magic, such as vacuum cleaners, flashlights, induction cookers, electric blankets, self-heating clothes, dishwashers and other electrical appliances.
If these items can be mass-produced, a large number of demon-free people and demon-possessed people can be freed to carry out more difficult production work, and production efficiency will also be greatly improved.
Lant was chatting with Wendy while looking at the stew pot. Wendy didn't say anything, just silently thinking about which ones she could make quickly and which necessary runes she didn't know yet.
. . . . .
Dinner was in the banquet hall on the first floor of the main building of the Chamber of Commerce. Today's dinner was especially sumptuous. It was also the first time for Lant to have dinner with his second and third brothers since he was a freshman.
"Oh, my dear brother, you are really the great hero of the whole kingdom. The bishop has praised you more than once in the past two days." Pelli kept praising Lant at the dinner table.
"I am also relying on the protection of the God Emperor. I believe that if it were my father and eldest brother, they could make the same choice as me, or even better."
"You are so humble." Paley moved closer to Lant. "Brother, does your viscounty need a sacrifice?"
"Ah?" Lant didn't react at first. "Viscounty?... Hey, let's not see the viscounty. I will develop the Galloping Horse Plains in the spring of next year. I will build you a cathedral later and let you be ours." Archbishop of Galloping Horse Plains"
"Hahaha, Lant said it right, our Benma family must directly take over the plains."
The two brothers started chatting while eating. Lant originally wanted to chat with a few of his subordinates about future business plans while eating, but this idea could not be carried out because of several cronies such as Dogtooth, Neil, Wendy and Mace. After smelling the smell all afternoon, my greedy mind was already aroused, and I had no time to talk to Lant during the meal.
For Lant, today's braised pork does not reflect the best level of the past, but the first bite still brought back endless memories of cooking in a rented house to entertain hungry colleagues; He became the main cook at the New Year's Eve dinner, which made his grandparents very happy; he was planning to show off his cooking skills to his girlfriend, but he had to stop at the last minute because his girlfriend's relatives were sick.
For a moment, there seemed to be a whirlpool in my mind, with ups and downs of sweetness and bitterness, and warm and sad pictures kept emerging.
Lant said he wanted to see the elbows made of jars and left.
The kitchen is not very big, with several brick stoves and large iron pots on the stoves. There are also a few medium-sized salt pots on the ground beside it. These were brought by Rand to the caravan just in case. , on the very edge of the stove is Wendy's newly invented 2-stage heating clay pot.
Hot water would emit steam from time to time, so after testing, Lant and Wendy also opened a few small holes in the lid to discharge steam to prevent the magic from breaking off and stopping heating due to the steam popping open the lid.
Lant looked at the steaming jar and slowly recalled the memories of his past life. He was afraid that someone would suddenly break in and had to swallow all his tears. In the end, he really didn't know what to do, so he simply opened the jar and used a knife and fork. I cut off a piece of elbow from the jar, scooped out some stewed soybeans, and let all my thoughts and feelings continue to be digested in the taste of my hometown.
"Sir, you can tell everyone directly that no one of us dares to rob you." A voice appeared from behind, and it was Wendy's.
"I just came here to taste the saltiness." Lant didn't dare to look back and just said.
"Don't worry, this meat is so delicious, everyone will eat it up regardless of whether it's salty or not."
"That's different. This is a matter of honor. I have to serve this meat in the best possible condition."
"Is this meat in its best condition now?"
"No, I have to add some salt and try it again"
In the end, Lant successfully turned his homesickness into a move to protect his food.
