Chapter 630: Zilu shows off his cooking skills

Confucius meant that Zhou rites were only an approximate standard, not an absolute one. As long as we don't violate this general standard, we can be regarded as abiding by the weekly etiquette.

But! There are some etiquettes that must be absolute.

For example! Salute the Son of Heaven and the King.

There are many types of salutes, for example! Bow down. If you prostrate on your knees, you have to be strict, absolutely according to that standard. Otherwise! You're just perfunctory.

And also! Bow to the courtesy! Be sure to bow over and bend over in place. Men have standards for men's posture, and women have their own standards.

"Don't talk about it! Let's keep eating! Didn't that just now? Speaking of which, I just improvised a bit. I don't know much about Zhou etiquette. When Mr. Min was there before, he understood! What I said was learned from Mr. Min! Dine! ”

Talking! Confucius didn't care whether others ate or not, and ate himself.

After lunch, the substitute teachers went back to the classroom.

Le Ge sat with Confucius and Zilu for a while, and then went back to the classroom.

Qi Guan's family, Wolf Sister, and Wei'er began to be busy washing pots and dishes after eating.

Seeing that Lege was gone, Zilu also stood up. And then! I went to the kitchen without saying hello. Earlier, he said that he wanted to show his cooking skills. He was still not worried about Le Ge and Shi Niang's cooking skills, for fear of ruining the fresh prey.

"You're here? Sub-road! We haven't brushed it yet! Seeing that Zi was coming, Qi Guanshi smiled embarrassedly.

The wolf sister looked honest when she saw Zilu, and she liked it too.

Wei'er grew up serving others, so she naturally has a good smile and smiles towards Zilu.

Zilu didn't speak, but his eyes scanned around. He's just here, and he's not too familiar with the environment.

Having a general understanding of the situation, he went to fetch water.

There is a secret door on the side of the firewood house that leads to the backyard and there is a well inside. The well is not in the courtyard outside, but in a separate space that is fenced. This is a space that does not open to the backyard, and belongs to the space separated by the firewood house.

Outside the backyard, there is a large well, where there are open, public wells. The wells here are domestic wells to prevent the wicked from poisoning.

Seeing that Zilu is diligent and doesn't want to be taught to do things, the three women of Qiguan's family, wolf sister, and Wei'er all like him.

In the past, Yan Lu was also very diligent and honest, but Yan Lu seemed to be stupid, and he was not as flexible as Zilu.

Today's Yan Lu, since getting married, seems to have become a lot lazy. Usually after class in the afternoon, if there is no class in the evening, he has to go home.

Although Yan Lu is married, his son, the historical figure Yan Hui, has not yet been born. At this time, Yan Lu was not yet twenty years old.

Fill the water tank with water, and Zilu is sweating profusely.

Qi Guan felt sorry for him and brought a towel for him to wipe. If it weren't for the age difference, the Qi Guan's family would have stepped forward to wipe his sweat.

On the side of the Qi Guan's family, the pots and dishes have been washed, everything is cleaned up, and it is time to start work.

After Zilu wiped his sweat, he started to do it.

The wolf sister felt that she was clumsy and not very flexible, so she sat down under the stove and prepared to be a husband.

Qi Guan's family was afraid that Zilu was not familiar with it, so he gave him a hand.

Wei'er is flexible and has a good brain, so he does chores on the side.

"Boil a pot of boiling water first, then put the meat in it and boil!" Zilu commanded as he started cutting the meat. Remove the pheasant and hare meat into eight pieces.

Wait until the water is boiling, put the chopped "big unloading eight pieces" in it and boil.

After cutting the pieces of meat, he began to cut the entrails of pheasants and hares.

As in the past, the offal was chopped and mixed into pieces with grain flour. When the boiled meat is scooped up, boil it in a soup pot with boiled meat.

After the boiled meat is cooked, the knife work on this side of Zilu is almost the same.

When the boiled meat is cooked, it should be soaked in the pot for a while to keep the meat at a certain temperature. And then! Scoop up the meat and cool it aside.

This time! Zilu mixed the cut chicken offal and rabbit offal with grain flour, and the chicken was used as a chicken and the rabbit as a rabbit.

Whether the level of the fire is high or not depends on whether you can grasp the heat. If the heat is not enough, not only is it uncooked, but it also has a fishy smell that is not delicious. After the heat is over, the meat is not crispy, and it is not chewy like a skin band, and it is not delicious.

Grasping the heat is the key, and then it's time to add ingredients.

The same is the ingredient, your recipe is not scientific, then! The taste is just as bad.

Zilu is not in a hurry to put the ingredients, wait until all the meat is boiled out, and then stew in a large pot.

There is a kind of ingredient, and he deliberately put it in the soup pot alone and boiled it for a while. When the flavor is out, take the soup again. Don't want the slag, scoop it up and pour it out.

After the entrails of the chicken and the hare were removed, three large bowls were boiled. The bowl is about the size of the pot, which is equal to three major pots.

And then! Only then did he start cooking chicken and hare meat.

Cut the boiled chicken and hare meat into the desired pieces and prepare the ingredients for cooking together. Usually cooked with boiled meat, it is beans or other ingredients that are difficult to cook.

First, put the hard-to-cook ingredients in the pot and cook them until they are cooked a little bit, and then put the other ingredients separately. In short! It is to ensure that all the ingredients are cooked together.

Wait until all the ingredients are almost cooked, then add the sliced boiled meat and stew it together. When the flavor comes out, it's almost ready.

Because the materials used are different, so! The aroma that comes out of the cooking is definitely different. Because the seasoning used by the master is different, the aroma of cooking is also different. And also! The taste of food cooked by different people is definitely not the same.

"Hmmm! It tastes good! Seemingly! This sub-road, cooking skills are very good! Lege went to the classroom to arrange an afternoon class, and then came back after a class.

Because I am going to give students extra meals in the afternoon, so! Start class when all the students have arrived, finish the class early, and eat early.

When you come back! The boiled meat has already been cooked to a meaty aroma.

The name is boiled meat, in fact! Not only water, but also spices should be placed in it. Boiled meat in clear water is not called boiling, but "blanching". Scald! That is, blanch it in a pot of boiling water and pass it for a while, and the inside is still raw.

Confucius had been copying books since everyone had left, and when he smelled the fragrance, he couldn't help but glance towards the kitchen.

Seeing Le Ge come in, both of them nodded knowingly. There's no need to talk nonsense, just that meaning Zilu's cooking skills are still very good.

"Ahem, ahem!" Le Ge smiled, "We are hunters, where can we not cook?" Otherwise! When hunting in the mountains, where do you get to eat? Eating grass? Nine out of ten Orions are barbecue masters! The meat that comes out of the barbecue is more fragrant! ”

Confucius glanced at the music, ignored it, and copied it again.

Brag! Blow it to yourself! I'm busy!

Seeing that Confucius ignored him, Le Ge smiled self-deprecatingly and went to the kitchen.
