Chapter 440: The Simplest and the Least Simple (Part II)
"Isn't the old vinegar the more fragrant it gets?" Cao Chun was a little unclear as to why Lejin was so surprised.
"That being said, ten years is a different concept!" Lejin hurriedly compared, "In ten years, the temperature and environment have changed too much, and the changes in the vinegar tank will also be great." If you are a little careless, for example, if the temperature difference changes suddenly, then a vat of vinegar will be ruined. ”
"Indeed, the longer the vinegar is used for a short period of time, the more difficult it is to preserve, the lower the yield rate, and the higher the price of the finished product. Ten years, how many decades can there be in a lifetime? Cheng Yu nodded, this taste is very pure, refreshing, and it can't be found in ten years.
"But if you buy a bottle of this thing, you can almost buy a duck, right? Ducks are also so wasteful...... "Cao Chun is a martial artist, and he is not particularly particular about eating, and he is not yet able to taste food.
"No...... It's just ...... like this, "Xun Yu is very comfortable to eat, the duck meat is tender, the sauce is refreshing, and after eating rice and vegetables, the craving for fat can also be well satisfied."
Even after eating duck meat, when I turned around and took a bite of vegetables, it was so harmonious, perhaps because of the relationship between the white chops.
The oil in these dishes is not heavy, but there is no feeling of lack of oil, and the moist taste is very comfortable. Eventually, everyone noticed, and there was no soup to drink!
"Soup is usually drunk before meal......s," Cao Cao looked at everyone, "Your meals are almost finished...... If you eat like this, you can easily gain weight......"
"What stupid thing did Mengmeng say?" Lejin is still the same as before, after all, it is not a formal occasion now, as a girlfriend, it is nothing to call her by her name in private, "We have to exercise every day like this, but it is not good if there is no oil and water." ”
"Indeed...... I'm also worried that tonight's meal may not be enough oil and water......" Cao Chun nodded.
"That's ...... Then you are free to ......" Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and then a little resentful, because he drank afternoon tea, and then ate like this, it is estimated that he will really gain weight, and he will have to go back and exercise hard. Looking back, I also had a period of time when I didn't practice martial arts well and boil my body.
Basic exercises and yoga are done, but they are only for maintaining the body and have nothing to do with physical improvement.
However, her proposal was still responded to by many people, and many civil officials stopped being obsessed with rice and vegetables, and began to drink soup, using soup to spice it up, and at the same time reducing the amount of food.
"What's going on with this soup? Isn't it regular kombu pork rib soup? Don't tell me, this pig also has a mystery? Cao Pi took a sip, then his expression changed and he looked at Wang Yong.
"There's no mystery, ordinary domestic pigs, I choose ribs, chop them, blanch them, remove the foam, and then chill them with ice water. I boiled the kombu soup with kombu stems for half an hour, then took out the soup, added the kombu and simmered for another quarter of an hour, then added the pork ribs and simmered for half an hour. Only salt was added during the period, nothing else was added! Wang Yong replied.
"I see...... The umami of the kelp stalk is boiled out, right? Xun Yu immediately understood.
"Yes, the umami is three times that of kombu, and the taste of the kelp stalk is boiled out. With the fragrance of the pork ribs, the umami is elevated to the extreme! Wang Yong nodded.
"Huh? After taking a sip of the soup, the taste of the dish changes! It's even more delicious! Chen Qun couldn't help but exclaim, he just took a sip of soup and then ate the vegetables, but the taste was very different.
"Because of this umami, it directly affects the taste of the dish, and it will not be confused, but will be fresh!" Wang Yong replied.
After drinking such a rich umami soup, the aftertaste cannot be eliminated in the mouth for a long time. This flavor will adhere to it as you eat and eat vegetables, and the fragrance of kelp and pork bones is a versatile item that will not clash with any dish.
"This soup goes well with everything!" Guo Jia enjoyed drinking the soup, to some extent, this soup is almost the same as the stock, slightly different from the chicken stock, it is more adaptable, can adapt to the freshness of any dish.
"The point is that this soup connects everything together!" Cheng Yu took a sip of soup, and then took a bite of food, whether it was eating vegetables or drinking soup, everything seemed to be well connected.
Delicious food, the ultimate in taste and skill, the most simple is not simple, put in the hermit who lives in the deep mountains, after leaving the mountain, bloom a strong light.
"The small is hidden in the wilderness, and the big is hidden in the city. The most common and ordinary dishes, but they make people taste the unfathomable taste. Lejin couldn't help but sigh.
"Especially the delicious taste that broke through the ordinary and suddenly exploded, caught the taste and brain off guard, and the strong umami swept in...... It's overwhelming! "Cao Chun has completely sunk in.
"Huh? I don't know if you feel that your body seems to be warming up a lot? Gu Yong suddenly looked at a few people, "The fatigue has been eliminated to the greatest extent, and the vitality of the body has been completely stimulated." ”
"............" Cao Cao didn't speak, but she could feel the changes in her body most obviously, because the pain of the menstrual incident seemed to disappear at this moment. There was a warm feeling in the abdomen, which was very comfortable.
"That's right...... celery, fungus and kelp...... "Cao Cao is not ignorant of dietary therapy, especially someone, at some point, will use these materials to cook for himself, and he will memorize them all on his back."
So, he prepared this menu specifically for himself? Cao Cao suddenly felt a little abrupt, mainly because he was a little caught off guard, obviously he had nothing to do with him, but he could still consider himself in such a subtle place.
"Tonight's dishes are good for the body, such as this lily, you have been discussing it for so long, nourishing your yin and nourishing your lungs, clearing your heart and calming your nerves. Duck meat is good for the stomach, and I've been working hard for everyone. Wang Yong replied.
"Even the benefits to the body are taken into account? In this case, this package is really not simple! "Le Jin really attaches importance to Wang Yong at this moment, compared with his previous cooking skills, he is indeed worthy of the senior chef badge on his chest now.
"As long as everyone likes it, everyone is satisfied, which is the greatest satisfaction of our chefs!" Wang Yong replied politely.
"It's just that in the future, I'm afraid it's not easy to eat......" Le Jin was a little entangled, after all, she finished her debriefing and had to return to the front line. At that time, it is estimated that I will only be able to live a life of making do with food, and it seems that I will have to train Li Dian's cooking skills!
She's not secretly good at cooking, and in that case, of course her husband is responsible! Look at others, one serving four can do this to this extent, just satisfy their appetite, isn't it easy?
This is the end of the matter, and when dinner is over, everyone goes back one after another. Then, the next day, after reporting to Liu Xie, a temporary court meeting was held, and the meaning of the separation of the army and the military and government was discussed.
Hearing Cao Cao say that he wanted to give up his position as Sikong and concentrate on serving as a general of the chariot cavalry, many people were very abrupt, but this was also a time, and when it was time to enhance power and influence, everyone naturally did not object. And Wang Yun's side saw the important role of the separation of military and government in the stability of the imperial court.
"In that case, how about conducting experiments in Yanzhou, Yangzhou and Yuzhou first to form a corps?" Cao Cao proposed.
