At the same time, His Highness the Third Highness was still staring at the mist curling in front of him, his clear flame-colored eyes unblinking.
She volunteered to take on the task of making tea, and at the same time she chose seven different tea leaves to cook with their own exclusive tea sets, so seven teapots with different styles and materials were floating in front of her, and seven small teapots were floating in front of her. The red flame stays below.
President Aoda is responsible for the knife skills of all ingredients, but there are differences between her and His Majesty Xi Che.
Your Majesty Xiche is the chef and can choose to be responsible for all aspects of the dishes he wants to cook, while President Aoda is just a laborer and can only handle the ingredients given to her, and must not go overboard in the slightest.
Here, there is a plot.
Regarding the level of cooking skills within the Late Summer Friends Club, there is actually a clear dividing line.
The members of the first echelon are naturally passed down by An Ning's mother, Ye Qing, who has worked tirelessly for three years, and fellow senior fellow student Ge Sheng. Unexpectedly, Mo Xiaojing himself also has quite outstanding cooking skills.
Then there is the second echelon. They are the owner Qi Xia, ice boy Shi Feng and Zi Quan. Zi Quan comes from an average family. Although he is known as a genius, he still has to help his parents with cooking at home, so his cooking skills belong to Above the standard, but I can only cook some home-cooked dishes. Shi Feng is good at simple processing of game, and he is very good at cooking without sufficient seasonings and kitchen utensils. However, most of the dishes he makes only have the standard of being nutritious and non-toxic. As for the taste, he doesn't think too much about it.
The third echelon is the cooking idiots who are below ordinary people. They are led by Senior Zhou Xuan, His Highness the Third Prince and Lan Che. Senior Zhou Xuan has a first-class cooking skill, but when it comes to cooking, it’s If I Learn to Cook. Then there would be no kind-hearted girls who would take pity on me and cook for me. This irrefutable theory convinced everyone. His Highness the Third Prince is the spokesperson of convenience food. For more than 40 years, he has relied on a variety of instant and hot foods provided by Feixin Gym. Although the treasure of the town that can only master heating skills is strange and cute, but I have to pity the weak stomach of His Highness the Third Prince. As for Lan Che, although she is a gentle and charming ordinary aristocratic girl, it is natural that as a noble surnamed Lan, she has never been exposed to cooking, even though she is a quite qualified gourmet.
Yes, after saying so much, there is still one person left out. She leads the Hell Echelon alone.
Yes, His Highness, President Aoxuehua Aoda.
Regarding cooking, it is actually not scary to know nothing at all. What is scary is half-full proficiency combined with extreme paranoia.
Ao Xuehua herself is one of the few gourmets in the world. As Princess Aos, there is no delicacy that she cannot taste. She also has a super-sensitive sense of taste and smell. Her appreciation of food is definitely qualified to be on the judging bench of any cooking competition. .
But this has nothing to do with cooking.
Due to his sensitivity to taste and smell, Aoxuehua will stubbornly use some strange ingredients when cooking, such as the blood of Warcraft and pollen from herbs. These are probably within the acceptable range, so in order to soften the meat and make it easier to eat. Ao Xuehua’s classmate tried to use diluted sulfuric acid to achieve the instant effect. What the hell is that?
Even if it is sworn to prove that diluted sulfuric acid has minimal side effects on the human body, is it really impossible to find a substitute?
And in order to create a rich taste, what are the mixed additives of starch, pig iron and vinegar?
Judging from the initial starting point, President Aoxuehua’s original intentions are all good. He really wants to make refreshing and delicious dishes. However, the president has been pursuing new ingredients, seasonings and processing methods all the way. Soaring wildly, leaving stupid humans far behind.
Then, due to the subtle chemical reactions between the previous innovations, Ao Xuehua successfully created a brand new dark cuisine.
"Having a magical experience that makes people fall from heaven to hell in an instant is a rare masterpiece in the history of dark cuisine." Qi Xia once had the honor to taste a trial work and commented: "If you can be responsible for Ye If you supply Ye Ye City’s food, you will be the person closest to the perfect annihilation of Ye Ye City in history.”
In view of this, Ao Xuehua was not allowed to touch any seasonings here or participate in the cooking process. Unwilling to do so, she could only use her sword skills to cut into cubes and shred all the required ingredients.
Ignoring the resentful President Zangxue, Ziquan is preparing drinks for the banquet. In addition to tea and wine, fruit juice is also a good drink. In addition, because some dishes also use fruit juice for seasoning, the squeeze of the fruit is Juice is also an essential part.
As for Lan Che, as an aristocratic lady who has no fingers in the spring water, it is really difficult for her to cook. However, with the girl's insistence, some outsourcing work can still be carried out.
So Zhou Yan looked at the girl with twin tails standing by the sink, carefully washing fruits and vegetables. The wife's attributes were so cute that she was so cute. He was ready to rush forward, waving his big hand to take over the girl with a manly demeanor. All the work is done to win the girl's heart.
The boy with light blond hair wordlessly divided the mountain of fruits and vegetables in front of her into two piles.
Ice boy Shi Feng had a calm expression: "Let me help you a little."
The senior was left looking at the cat-eye green-eyed girl with crystal drops of water on her face, smiling with relief. For a moment, her heart ached, and she was speechless and choked.
Today is September 26, 121 Lan Li, the first day after the water polo finals, and the last day of this Lan Liu meet.
Of course, leaving aside the "Red Heart Diary" that was sold out at the Scarlet Heart Gym due to the water polo finals, in view of this Lanliu Club, the Late Summer Friends Club, with only ten members, won three gold medals and one bronze medal. The impressive achievements are unprecedented.
Hereby, Her Royal Highness Princess Ye Qing, as the nominal supreme leader of the Late Summer Friends Society, seemed to propose a grand celebration as a matter of course.
This is a high-sounding reason.
For Ye Xiaojiu, the real reason is just to get together again.
It has been almost three years since the last similar gathering. Those people who gathered by the holy lake may never be able to get together again in the future. Therefore, this second opportunity that can be seized, Ye Xiaojiu is Absolutely never give up.
About the dinner party held by all members of the Friends Club with Xi Che and Xing Xi at the end of summer.
Of course, as a girl with excellent cooking skills, when faced with such a dinner party, she is naturally not willing to resort to artificial means.
Therefore, Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess recruited all the members of the Late Summer Friends Club for free, and together with Xing Xi Xiche, they entered the third floor of the Ye Tower in a mighty manner.
Because this place has the most complete kitchen facilities in the entire Ye Ye College.
As for the noble Majesty Xiche, Ye Xiaojiu actually did not give him due respect. He promised to treat you to a reunion dinner. When His Majesty arrived in person, he sincerely and uneasily apologized to him: "I don't have enough kitchen help." , can you come and play a supporting role?"
Such a crime of deceiving the emperor, such a confounding of the Holy Spirit, such a rebellious and unruly act, such a crime of bullying the superiors and flattering the subordinates.
In the spring of the fourth year of Qingli, he shrugged and put on a white chef's uniform.
As a result, the most senior chef in history was born gorgeously.
The ultimate value of any dish lies only in the moment it is served on the table.
At this moment, on the entire second floor of Ye Pagoda, only Xia Moyoushe and Xi Che A fact that everyone knows.
So even if Ye Qing invited him to the banquet in his own name, in the end, no one dared to become the thirteenth bystander.
So serve.
The first dish was naturally a cold dish, but Mo Xiaojing brought a plate of seven-color lotus flowers, with petals, calyx and lotus pods clearly visible.
Curious, Ye Qing picked up a chopstick and put it into his mouth. He felt it was cold and crispy, with a hint of sweetness, and then he suddenly realized that this was actually a lotus shape carved from lotus roots. The carving was so exquisite that it was simply breathtaking.
"Here, I would like to thank Mr. President for his exquisite knife skills." Mo Xiaojing said with a smile, which made Ao Xuehua's teeth itch with hatred. "The name of the dish is Bingxin Snow Lotus."
Ge Sheng was more interested in the lotus pods. He picked up a whole lotus pod and touched it lightly with the head of his chopsticks. It spread apart, revealing the lotus seeds inside. They were brewed with ice wine. They were crisp and delicious, and the aroma of the wine was overwhelming.
This skill is second to none in terms of creativity, knife skills, and ingredients. Naturally, there was a circle of admiration from all around. Everyone took a chop before waiting for the next dish.
The second one is still cool, but it is the handiwork of His Majesty Xiche. When he brought it up to look at it, he saw a green mountain with undulating hills, terraced fields and wild flowers blooming.
Ye Qing looked at Xi Che, waiting for him to explain, but His Majesty the Emperor did not speak, and raised his hands in a gesture of invitation.
Ye Qing lowered the chopsticks, and the mountain peaks rose up in response, only to find that it was the bamboo shoots that had been sliced by the sun earlier, and then skillfully stacked to form the peaks.
"What about this flower?" Ge Sheng said, picking up another piece and lifting it up with a red flower. When he looked closer, he found that the red flower was actually carved from red fruits. The red fruits are juicy and crunchy and are used for carving. It's as difficult as climbing to the sky, but this majesty is able to do it every step of the way, which is astonishing.
"Of course I'm not." Xi Che shook his head with a smile, glanced at Xing Xi, and then reported the name of the dish: "Flowers are blooming in Qianmo."
Is this done on behalf of the guy who wasn't there? Ye Qing scratched his head, and then everyone tasted it one by one, the next one!
The third course was pasta, and Ye Qing brought a plate of golden spring rolls.
"I don't want to do so many fancy things, delicious food is the most important thing!"
This is a home-cooked dish taught by An Ning's mother. Ge Sheng knew it and was the first to pick up a chopstick. It was crispy, golden and fragrant.
"Red Gold Yingluo." Ye Qing reported the name of the dish without any nonsense: "The refined pork mixed with batter is marinated in the sauce for three days, then wrapped in uncooked rice skin and fried in an oil pan. The difficulty is the heat and the sauce. Preparation of ingredients, above.”
"Of course, if you consider that a thirteen-year-old girl can make such a complicated dish, you should get extra points." Ao Xuehua teased and picked one up: "If you consider your identity, I'm afraid it will be full points."
Then Ao Xuehua looked at the half-bitten spring roll and paused: "Okay, crispy and tender, great."
The fourth course, pastries.
"You can tell, it's Nine Fruit Snow Cake."
Ye Qing brought over the plate of pastries and directly announced his name.
Snow cream cake is a traditional pastry made of orchid leaves, while nine-fruit snow cream cake is a more sophisticated preparation method. There are cakes with completely different flavors in almost different regions.
Ye Qing's nine-fruit snow cream cake is naturally passed down from An Ning's mother.
"Rice flour is mixed with honey and sugar, mixed with water and kneaded into a ball, then compressed in a mold and steamed in a cage." Ye Qing's introduction was concise and comprehensive.
"Where's the heart?" Ziquan had tasted one and made it for her family, but the flavor was obviously different, so she asked.
The topping of snow cream cake refers to the proportion of spices in the water used to mix it. This is the core part of controlling the taste of snow cream cake.
"Rose, lily, honey and mint." Ye Qing's words were concise and to the point.
Pastry is Ye Qing's favorite project, so he is naturally very good at it.
"Which nine fruits are there?" Xi Che asked with a smile.
Jiuguo actually refers to a general term. In Lanye culture, as the largest singular number in decimal notation, this number generally refers to the largest number.
But on the other hand, because nine is the last number, it is also used to describe the youngest children.
Therefore, a certain princess will be called Xiaojiu and Princess Ninth.
"Guess for yourself!" Ye Qing curled his lips and smiled.
"Candied walnuts, dried grapes, boiled melon seeds, and dried red dates." Ge Sheng said with a smile: "Then fried pine cones, roasted peanuts, crushed sesame seeds, and candied fruits. of prunes.”
"Ahem." Ye Qing coughed loudly.
If there is really one person in this world who can eat all the nine fruits she used, then that person can only be the person in front of her.
"There's still one missing, right?" Lan Che kept counting.
"Ruoguo." Ge Sheng spread his hands and said with a smile, "There's no need to guess this."
The fifth course, soup.
"Don't look at me. None of you are willing to do it, so I have to do it."
Ye Qing served bowls to everyone, not like a princess at all.
"The White Jade Reunion Soup is here." Ye Qing returned to his seat, spread his hands and said, "Originally it was quite a novel style, but we have been eating the green silk lotus root and jasper soup for so many days, and there are not many surprises anymore."
"Yes." Mo Xiaojing looked at the clear water-like soup in the bowl. Several longan-sized balls were as smooth as jade.
"It's made of rice flour wrapped in candied fruit and rolled. It's guaranteed to be delicious, but it's not guaranteed to be amazing." Ye Qing added sheepishly.
The Third Prince nodded, scooped one up with a spoon, blew it to cool it a little, then bit into the white jade-like glutinous rice balls, tasted them, and then swallowed them in one gulp.
"tasty."
Then, just like before, the dishes were served one after another, and then everyone took up chopsticks and tried them together.
There were twelve dishes in total, because there happened to be twelve people.
Ye Qing is the master of the fourth path.
Mo Xiaojing followed with two passes.
Xi Che said the same thing.
Then Gesheng, Qixia, Shifeng, and Ziquan each came out.
Although Ye Qing was the most popular, she also wanted to take advantage of one cake and one soup, so there were only two that she needed to worry about.
So one dish after another was served to win praise from everyone, and finally the finale came.
"There is no way for those who return."
Xiche spoke concisely and directly told the name of the dish.
The so-called final dish, the most important thing is the portion, because after a meal, if someone is not full, this is the most embarrassing thing for the host, so the taste of the last dish is the second most important thing. It is sufficient.
So Xiche directly served a half-circle plate with a silver plate cover that was almost half a person's height.
"What is this?" Ye Qing asked curiously.
"There is no way back." Xiche repeated the name of the dish and then opened it.
Heat rises.
Everyone was almost stunned when they looked at the food on the plate.
BBQ, all BBQ.
They were all high-quality barbecued meats grilled over charcoal fire and filled with a fragrant aroma. They were cut into strips of meat and stacked on a dinner plate, which was as tall as half a person.
If we talk about affordable portions, this dish is too affordable.
"Wild boar meat, wild horse meat, pheasant meat, snapper meat." Mo Xiaojing looked at the mountain of meat in trance.
He counted from the bottom and reported the type of meat on each level.
This barbecue mountain has a total of thirty-one layers, so it is composed of thirty-one different kinds of delicacies.
Birds and beasts, horns, wings, scales and feathers. Wherever it is, nothing is there.
All the best and most tender parts are selected, and then grilled by the best chef.
At this time, they have just been baked, and you can still see the golden butter that is constantly coming out.
"Is the dish done?"
Mo Xiaojing asked.
"Of course not." Xiche replied with a smile.
Saying this, he poured a ladle of boiling water on the top of the barbecue.
The boiling water starts from the first layer of barbecue at the top and goes down, mixed with the fat and aroma of the meat, and continues to penetrate and drop. When the hot barbecue meets the boiling water, the indescribable aroma is filled, and the sound of sizzling is endless.
It wasn't until the boiling water seemed to have penetrated into the bottom layer of the barbecue that Xiche nodded and agreed.
Saying this, he held the knife in his hand and made a flat cut at the bottom of the barbecue, then stopped in the middle. He used a slender knife to lift the entire mountain of barbecue and put it into the package in the space.
Only then did everyone see that there was something underneath the barbecue mountain.
It was a large and thick pancake, covering the entire dinner plate. It was obviously made with great care. Sesame seeds, green peppers and green onions were mixed into the pancake, making it golden and fragrant.
But that's not all.
When the gourd of boiling water that was poured down just now reached the bottom, only pure grease remained.
Thirty-one layers of fat from different meats are mixed together and finally penetrated into this golden pancake.
With one stroke of Xiche's knife and a few ups and downs, the whole pancake was divided into twelve equal parts, just like the hour.
"If you can't finish it, you can take it away."
The emperor of St. added.
"But why is it this name?" Ye Qing asked.
Xi Che smiled and replied lightly.
"Because too often, people who leave will look back and see too many things, but they can never find what they really need."
"Therefore there is no way for those who return."
