Chapter 758: Drink Under the Moon! (Above)
Bright moon, clear spring, roast chicken, fine wine, and teachers and students.
Tonight, this wasteland should have been as plain as usual, but because of the arrival of Li Zexuan, Cheng Chumo, Sun Zifan and others, it has become lively here.
"Xiao Xuan, come, I would like to give you a drink, I know that you have put a lot of effort into Yanhuang Academy, but we are still secretly arranging you, our brothers have not drunk together like this for a long time~!"
Cheng Chumo's expression moved slightly, he raised a bamboo tube of fine wine, saluted Li Zexuan, and said.
Li Zexuan was silent, and after a while, he sighed and said, "Okay!" There are only friends and brothers here tonight, no teachers and students, so I will accompany you to have two drinks~! ”
Since Li Zexuan entered the Guozijian at the beginning, his relationship with Cheng Chumo, Wei Chi Baolin, Li Chengqian and others has more or less changed a little, and the love of friends and brothers has become mixed with some teacher-student morality, and there is a sense of distance between each other for no reason.
Cheng Chumo's words just now made him feel a lot in his heart, although he is the head of Yanhuang Academy, but if he has been holding the posture of the mountain chief, it is easy to ignore the friendship of brothers and friends, he does not need to be like Kong Yingda, always maintain the posture of an "old pedant" in order to maintain his majesty among students.
He is who he is, he is only fifteen years old, only others imitate him, he does not need to imitate anyone.
"Haha~! Good~! To tell you the truth, although Lone is not a student of Yanhuang Academy, you will feel depressed when you talk to Xiao Xuan before, and that feeling Lone can only be felt when you talk to your father. It's rare to be able to talk to Xiao Xuan as a friend today, it's really happy~! ”
Among the first group of people Li Zexuan knew, Li Chengqian was one of them, and feeling the subtle changes in the atmosphere in the field, Li Chengqian said with a happy expression.
"Hehe, Gao Ming's words are wrong, we are not only friends and brothers today, but also for life! It's just that sometimes because of different positions, I have to do business~! Come on, drink~! ”
Li Zexuan slapped open the wine jar and poured a tube into his bamboo tube, and the rest of the people did the same. What he brought today is Bingzhen Gentle Township, after all, the immortal drunkenness is too high, if this group of people drinks high, they will not be able to get up tomorrow morning, and they will definitely be punished at that time!
"Hey~! Xiao Xuan, since they are all good brothers, shall we change a chicken~? Look my chickens are bigger than yours! To change or not to change? ”
With the slightest cool wine in his stomach, everyone couldn't help but exclaim, but Li Tai, a clever little ghost, fell in love with the charred and attractive roast chicken in front of Li Zexuan, he couldn't help licking his mouth, and said with a smile.
How can good wine not go with good meat~?
Li Zexuan was furious when he heard this, it was really ambiguous that the little fat man's words were too special and ambiguous, what do you mean that my chicken is bigger than yours? It's obviously something going on!
"Get out! Don't change! My chickens are ten times bigger than yours! If you kid want to eat something delicious, do it yourself~! Do it yourself, have plenty of food and clothing! ”
Li Zexuan glanced at the little fat man and said angrily.
Li Tai couldn't understand why Li Zexuan was angry, but he also knew that he couldn't change the chicken, so he could only retreat and say, "Then Xiaoxuan, can you give me a little bit of the spice you brought?" ”
As the saying goes, there is no harm if there is no comparison, at first Li Tai thought that the chicken he roasted was not bad, but as soon as Li Zexuan came, he instantly felt that the chicken in his hand was a little difficult to swallow.
Li Zexuan nodded, casually threw the seasoning package over, everyone rushed for a while, and a quarter of an hour later, with the assistance of various seasonings, the chicken in everyone's hands exuded a burst of aroma, compared with before, the taste was significantly improved by more than one grade.
"Hmm~! Fragrant! It's so fragrant~! It's been a long time since I've eaten such fragrant roast chicken! ”
There was no need for Li Zexuan to open his mouth at all, Li Tai had already started eating without any image, and Sun Zifan, Cheng Chumo, Yu Chi Baolin and others followed.
Seeing that the group of people in front of him were like starving ghosts reincarnated, Li Zexuan shook his head, slowly tore off a piece of chicken leg, and began to taste it slowly.
The saltiness is moderate, the heat is just right, but the lack of chili peppers always feels a little uncomfortable! But because cumin is added to the grilling process, the overall feeling is still very good.
After all, there is such a saying in modern times:
"A skewer of barbecue without chili peppers,
It is a skewer of grilled meat without taste.
A skewer of barbecue without cumin,
It's a skewer of soulless barbecue. ”
This shows how amazing cumin is as a condiment!
"Hmm~! I didn't expect that pouring some benzoin on the chicken and roasting it in the fire would be so delicious! Xiao Xuan, how did you come up with it? ”
Li Tai bit a piece of chicken thigh, his eyes lit up, and he was full of praise.
The benzoin in his mouth is cumin!
Cumin is native to North Africa and West Asia, and according to archaeological discoveries in Syria, the use of cumin seeds can be traced back to the second millennium BC. The ancient Egyptians used cumin as a spice, and when the pharaoh was buried, the ancient Egyptians needed to make mummies, and cumin also became an ingredient in the preservatives of mummies.
"Rest fennel" is an ancient name for cumin in Chinese, and from the word "rest", you can see where and when cumin was introduced to China. Sima Qian recorded in the "Historical Records": "At the beginning, the Han envoy rested in peace, and the king ordered 20,000 horsemen to meet in the eastern border. The eastern border goes thousands of miles to the royal capital. Compared with the line, through dozens of cities, the people belong to a lot", "Dawan and Daxia, and the genus of rest are all large countries, many strange things, indigenous, quite the same industry as China, and the army is weak".
Therefore, it can be considered that cumin was introduced to China from the Silk Road in the Han Dynasty.
"Well, I only learned today that sprinkling cumin into meat can make meat so fragrant! Xiao Xuan, you are so talented~! ”
Because he was in the special training class, Cheng Chumo had not eaten less meat in the past two days, so he was not as "hungry" as Li Tai, but after tasting the meat he roasted with his own hands, Cheng Chumo couldn't help but be surprised.
"Heh~! In fact, there is one less seasoning in it, and if you have it, this chicken will definitely taste more than twice as good! ”
Li Zexuan smiled faintly.
Li Chengqian's eyes lit up and said, "What seasoning?" I'll ask people to collect and collect~! ”
Li Zexuan shook his head and said, "Hehe! We don't have this thing in Datang, if you want to get it, you can only go to the extreme west to find it, but there is a sea of tens of thousands of miles in between, I hope I can still eat it in my lifetime~! ”
Several people knew that Li Zexuan had an adventure when he was a child, so they didn't ask him how he knew that kind of seasoning. Cheng Chumo pinched his chin and said with a smile: "Hey~!" What are you afraid of? Our Datang fleet can now go to the small countries of the South Seas, and we will definitely be able to go to the extreme west in the future, Xiaoxuan, you will definitely be able to eat that kind of seasoning again! ”
