Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Li Qi and Zong Ze exchanged views on the Dengzhou issue, compared to Zong Ze's feelings for the country and the people, Li Qi is more concerned about the entire layout, for the sake of the overall situation, he will not hesitate to give up some, in this way, there are still some different views between him and Zong Ze, fortunately, Li Qi respects Zong Ze very much, and did not fight with him, both sides take a step back, plus Zhao Jingyan mediated on the side, but there was no big dispute.

But the friendship between the two has also been further improved in this small dispute, Li Qi's mouth is still sweeter, and his title has been changed from Zong Governor's Mansion to Uncle Zong.

After a while, I saw a team of people and horses suddenly coming in front of me, about a dozen people, and three donkey carts, and a few mahogany boxes were placed in the donkey carts.

"Here we are."

Li Qi looked at the men and smiled.

Zong Ze raised his eyes, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, obviously, Li Qi's just saying that he wanted to match him with a cook and Lang Zhong was definitely not a whim, but a premeditated one. But even so, he still wanted to refuse, so he said: "Economic envoy, as the saying goes, no merit is not rewarded, your gift is too heavy, Zong Ze is worthy of it." ”

Li Qi said: "Uncle Zong, why don't you think about it from a different angle." Maybe for you, this can be said to be useless, but for me, whether you are healthy or not is directly related to the success of my new law, I think this is an investment, there is nothing in the world that is not earned for nothing, so this kind of effort is very necessary and reasonable. ”

Zong Ze listened convincingly this time, and there was no way to defend it.

"The villain has seen Shigong (economic envoy)."

While speaking, the group came to the pavilion and respectfully saluted Li Qi.

Li Qi snorted, put his hand in front of Zong Ze, and said, "This is the Zong Governor's Mansion, you will be mixed with him in the future." ”

Those people were saluting Zong Ze again.

Mess with me? How can this be like I'm the leader of the grass bandits! Zong Ze didn't laugh or cry, so he could only nod his head a few times in embarrassment.

Li Qi asked again, "Did I bring all the materials I wanted?" ”

A little cook said: "Back to the words of the master." All of them were brought. ”

"Hurry up and get it out."

"Yes."

Giggles!

But one of the cooks brought a hen out of the back of the donkey cart, and the other two cooks each held a large white stone in their hands, and the other two were holding some jars and jars.

Li Qi took the hen in one hand, weighed it a few times, weighed about two catties, nodded with satisfaction, and said to those disciples: "You put the things over there." ”

"Yes."

A few disciples immediately went to prepare.

Li Qi said to Zong Ze again: "Uncle Zong, please wait for a while. It will be fine soon. ”

Zong Ze and Li Qi were embarrassed to sit and wait for eating, so they said: "Zong will also do some cooking here, and he can help the economic envoy start." ”

Zhao Jingyan smiled lightly: "Uncle Zong, this is your class with an axe, and you can help the Golden Knife Chef King, which is definitely not something that ordinary people can do." I think the left manager of the imperial dining room has this qualification. ”

Li Qi ha: "Miss Zhao is so honest. After a pause, he said to Zong Ze again: "Uncle Zong, this dish is actually very simple, and I am enough for one person." ”

For!

As soon as Li Qi's words fell, a wine jar suddenly appeared in front of Zong Ze, and Zong Ze, who was still frightened, took a small step back.

"Zong Governor's Mansion, what is the taste of cooking? Why not drink a jar or two? ”

I saw Ma Qiao holding a jar of wine in his right hand and putting it in front of Zong Ze. In his left hand, he also carried two jars of wine.

You really don't recognize life, and you find someone to drink at every turn. Li Qiden broke out in a cold sweat, but he didn't say anything to stop it, that is, he acquiesced to Ma Qiao's approach.

Zong Ze doesn't understand the market, and secretly thinks, this economic envoy acts strangely, and his subordinates are not far behind!

This master and servant are really a perfect match, one of them shows off his cooking skills. A good drinker, but there is really no one in the world who can compete with it. Zhao Jingyan laughed secretly in her heart, and whispered in Zong Ze's ear: "Uncle Zong, this person is Li Qi's guard, but he never thinks like this, don't be surprised, and. This guy isn't bad, he's funny, the key is that he's not drunk. ”

Drunk or not? Zong Zeke is also a person who walks the rivers and lakes, and he has never heard of anyone who is not drunk. Curious for a moment, I wanted to try it, so I took the jar and said, "Then thank you for your wine." ”

"This is prepared by Bu Shuai, and I am only responsible for drinking." Ma Qiao smiled and handed Zhao Jingyan a jar of wine.

Zhao Jingyan admired Ma Qiao, and said with a little surprise: "I have it too!" As he spoke, his hand had already taken the wine.

You're really not polite! Li Qi shook his head with a smile and said, "Okay, you guys just drink, I'll go and get busy first, and I'll be out of company." He bowed slightly towards Zong Ze, but left.

Zong Ze still felt a little awkward, this master ran to cook, and he was drinking here, what did he think about, but Zhao Jingyan and Ma Qiao didn't care, and pulled him to drink.

Li Qi first called life to boil water, and he himself went to the river to kill chickens, for him who likes to pursue perfection, killing chickens is also a technical job, and the technique will directly affect the taste of chickens, obviously these apprentices have not yet reached this level.

After slaughtering the chickens, they used hot water to remove their hair, and in the process, they did not forget to teach some details to a few disciples. These apprentices were the first to learn to cook with Wu Xiaoliu, and their skills could also pass the test, otherwise Li Qi would not let them follow Zong Ze, but they rarely listened to Li Qi's lectures, and they all listened very seriously.

After cleaning the chicken feathers and internal organs, Li Qi folded the head of the chicken under the wings, and the chicken feet into the belly, and said, "Bring the snow cabbage." ”

"Yes."

One of the apprentices soon brought a jar, and it turned out that Li Qi wanted pickled cabbage, but when he saw him, he took out the cabbage from the jar, filled the belly of the chicken, and then mixed it with ginger, green onions, Sichuan pepper, cooking wine, and adult old sauce.

Before I knew it, half an hour had passed.

In the pavilion, Zong Ze was finally convinced, this guy on the other side is simply not a human being, even if he drinks water, he can't drink like this, from the moment he just sat down, cup after cup, he didn't stop at all, at the beginning, he was still able to keep up with the progress, but the more he drank to the back. The more timid he became in his heart, he really didn't fear anyone about this amount of wine, however, he saw that Ma Qiao was getting more and more energetic, and he shouted that it was boring to drink with a cup, and he wanted to drink directly from the jar. I thought of Zhao Jingyan's words again, and thought to myself, if I drink like this, I will definitely get drunk, and I will have to hurry later, so I can't drink anymore.

Zhao Jingyan seemed to see Zong Ze's thoughts. Glancing towards the outside of the pavilion, he sighed and said, "What are they doing?" ”

Zong Ze turned his head to look, but he didn't see it clearly, so he said, "Ho, this is really strange." As he spoke, he stood up. Walking towards the outside of the pavilion, now he just wanted to get rid of the demon Maqiao.

Zhao Jingyan secretly pursed her lips and smiled, got up and followed.

Ma Qiao looked at the two of them in astonishment, and said to himself: "Strange! What's so nice about cooking? As he spoke, he directly picked up the wine jar and poured it in, feeling that it was a little boring to drink alone, so he carried the wine jar and went out.

Bang bang bang!

I saw that one of Li Qi's apprentices was hitting the two big white stones with a hammer, while Li Qi was sitting on the side to guide, and he would definitely not do such foul words himself. Suddenly, Zhao Jingyan and Zong Ze came over, and asked curiously: "Why are you here?" ”

Zong Ze shook his head and sighed: "Your guard's alcohol is really amazing, I am not his opponent." ”

You know that's the case. Li Qi looked at Ma Qiao, who was walking towards this side, and shook his head vigorously, even speechless.

Zhao Jingyan was curious: "Li Qi, what kind of dishes are you going to make, why do you still need stones?" ”

Li Qi smiled mysteriously: "I'll show you a trick later." ”

"Juggling? What trick? ”

Li Qi said: "Don't cook with fire." ”

"No fire?" Zhao Jingyan was shocked: "How is this possible? ”

Li Qi said slyly: "Then how about we make a bet?" ”

Zhao Jingyan simply said: "Don't gamble." ”

Li Qi's face froze. "Don't you know that there is a saying that is rare and confused? ”

Zhao Jingyan said: "Since you know this sentence, why haven't I seen you do it." ”

At this time, Ma Qiao, who came over, smiled and said, "Bu Shuai." If you want to be confused, just drink some wine. ”

Zhao Jingyan sneered and said, "This is reasonable!" ”

In the case of a p. Li Qi shouted at Ma Qiao: "You give me a face to think about the past, think about who paid you." ”

On the side, Zong Ze was secretly surprised when he heard it, thinking to himself, could it be that the cooking skills of this Golden Knife Chef King have reached such a high level, and he can cook without fire.

After the little apprentice knocked the big stone into pieces, the chicken over there was almost pickled, and Li Qi wrapped the pickled chicken in lard and lotus leaves, put it in a porcelain jar, and covered it with large vegetable leaves. After making sure that it was completely sealed, the porcelain altar was buried in stone, with a raw egg, and then a bucket of water was brought in.

This cooking does not use fire, but water? Li Qi's move made the rest of the people rush to be puzzled, and they were very looking forward to it.

Li Qi scooped out a scoop of water, glanced at everyone, and said, "Look at it." Then he sprinkled water on the stones.

I could only hear the sound of "whoosh", and bursts of white smoke rose from the board.

The rest of the people looked surprised.

Zong Ze and Zhao Jingyan said in unison: "Lime? ”

Li Qi smiled bitterly: "I thought you already knew. ”

This stone is quicklime from a chalk workshop.

The two of them showed embarrassment again, they really didn't pay attention to it, and they suddenly realized, they all nodded with a smile, as if they understood the intention of Li Qi's move. In fact, the reason is very simple, because quicklime will emit a lot of heat when it comes into contact with water, it is enough to roast a chicken.

Zong Ze exclaimed: "The Golden Knife Chef King is really worthy of his reputation, with a bare move, I am afraid that there is no second person in the world today who can think of it." ”

Li Qi sprinkled the water and said with a smile: "Uncle Zong praised it. ”

Zhao Jingyan suddenly asked, "But if you do this, how do you know if this chicken is ripe?" ”

Zong Ze stroked his beard and said, "I think it should have something to do with that egg." ”

Li Qi nodded and said, "Uncle Zong is really powerful, you can see it at a glance." You must know that this chicken is cooked or not, in fact, it is very simple, as long as three eggs are steamed, then it will work. ”

Zhao Jingyan could only sigh when she heard it: "The Golden Knife Chef King's shot is really extraordinary." ”

Li Qi shrugged, without words, concentrated on watering, waited until the third egg was ripe, then stopped watering, used a wooden stick to peel off the lime, gently pulled the hemp rope tied to the porcelain altar, pulled the porcelain altar out, and used cold water to make the temperature of the outer wall of the porcelain altar drop sharply. Then wipe it clean with a damp cloth, wash one hand again, then open the lid, lift the vegetable leaves, and take out the lotus leaf bag with lard oil.

Before the lotus leaf bag was opened, a wisp of fragrance wafted out, waiting to be opened. This is even more amazing, a very special rich fragrance spreads, compared to the rest of the roast chicken or steamed chicken, this fragrance is less than a trace of fire, but the fragrance is very simple, as if it is made naturally. It makes people's noses twitch secretly.

But seeing that the hen in the lotus leaf is milky yellow and emits a faint oily shine, it is so tempting!

When everyone saw this, they couldn't help but salivate, and they couldn't wait to pounce on it, tear the chicken apart, and stuff it into their mouths.

Li Qi saw that everyone was stunned. Staring at this hen with wide eyes, as if there was a deep hatred in the sea of blood, he expressed deep understanding, and said: "Uncle Zong, Miss Zhao, don't just look at it, hurry up and taste it." It's good to give some advice. ”

Zong Ze was slightly stunned, came to his senses, waved his hand and said, "I don't dare to get an axe." ”

Zhao Jingyan said with a smile: "I have always had only one opinion on the dishes you cooked. ”

You can have an opinion on my food, so can you still eat other people's food? Didn't he starve to death a long time ago? Li Qi was curious: "What opinion?" ”

"It's just that I can't stop being so delicious, after all, I can't afford to invite you to my house as a chef."

The implication. It's just that you're used to eating the dishes you make, and the taste is terrible, where can you still eat the dishes made by others.

Li Qi grinned: "Then you can come to my house!" ”

As soon as the words came out, he immediately felt that this was a bit ambiguous. hurriedly said: "Don't don't, don't come, my family is already in the yin and yang." "I secretly complained in my heart, I already have a very perverted mother-in-law in my family, if you come again, fuck! Then I can't live!

Even if Zhao Jingyan is no longer informal, there is still Zong Ze here, and her face is also slightly red, she snorted lightly and did not answer this.

The three of them sat on the ground, Li Qi used a knife to cut off two chicken legs and distribute them to Zong Ze and Zhao Jingyan, and cut off two chicken wings, one of which was thrown to Ma Qiao, and one was kept for himself.

Zhao Jingyan took the chicken leg and sniffed it first, but felt the aroma refreshing, and asked, "Li Qi, what is the name of your dish?" Speaking of this, she remembered that the last time she tasted that clay chicken, Li Qi had Lao Tzu sit down on a little donkey to fool her, and hurriedly said: "Don't fool me with Lao Tzu's sage, I know this is lime." ”

Li Qi laughed and said, "This dish is called no turkey." ”

This turkey is also very famous in later generations, and the biggest highlight is the word "no fire", and it is precisely because of these two words that there are very few chefs who can be perfect, which is similar to the highest level of martial arts.

"No turkey, well, that's appropriate."

Zong Ze smiled, and couldn't wait to bite down on a piece of chicken, only to feel that this chicken was extremely tender, especially the outer layer of skin, soft and delicious, but not lacking in chewiness, and the taste was fragrant and mellow. I couldn't help but sigh: "This is definitely the most beautiful dish I have ever eaten in my life." ”

Ma Qiao didn't know if it was a flash of inspiration in his mind, and said: "That's because it's the first time for you to eat the dishes made by Bu Shuai, so I don't feel this way." ”

His words can be said to be the purest compliment.

It's really rare to hear a good word from this guy's mouth! Li Qi knows that this guy never makes a fool of himself, this is definitely his heartfelt words, because as long as he is willing to use his brain to think about it, he will not add the second half of the sentence.

Zong Ze ha: "Brother Ma is reasonable, reasonable!" ”

Zhao Jingyan savored it carefully, and said: "The best thing about this no turkey is that it is on the no fire, compared to the roast chicken, this chicken is less greasy, but it is more smooth and tender, compared to the steamed chicken, this chicken has a little more spicy and chewy, but it is soft and tender, and in the process of cooking, the taste is also very complete, the flavor is unique, and the mud chicken can be described as comparable, and it is also a superb." ”

Speaking of this, she frowned unconsciously and said, "It's just." ”

Li Qi still attached more importance to his dishes, and said, "Just what? ”

Zhao Jingyan said: "It's just that this chicken is the lunch for a few of us, and it is inevitably too little, I'm afraid it can't make everyone eat to the fullest." ”

It turned out to be too little, but it was really free and delicious. Li Qi said: "Don't worry, I have been prepared for a long time, and I promise not to let you go hungry." As he spoke, he said to a little apprentice, "I think it's about the same, bring it." ”

"Yes."

But seeing that Li Qi's two disciples immediately walked up to the makeshift stove not far away, because the beauty of this dish was that there was no fire, no one paid attention to the fire, and saw a large cauldron on the fire, and there was thick steam.

The two men took the pot and took out large and thin round cakes from it.

This round cake is very ordinary, there is nothing special, and it is often eaten during picnics, but Zhao Jingyan knows that this round cake will definitely have its unusual place when it falls into Li Qi's hands, so she is very looking forward to it.

Sure enough, after the round cake was taken, Li Qi suddenly opened the chicken belly, but saw that it was full of pickled cabbage.

Zong Ze's eyes lit up and said: "It turns out that there is a lot of Qiankun inside, no wonder I just tasted a special taste, it must be from this snow cabbage." ”

Li Qi nodded and said, "Uncle Zong is very right. ”

With that, he took out the cabbage and put it in a bowl, then picked up a knife and quickly cut the chicken into pieces. Next, he spread the cabbage on top of the round cake, then put the chicken on top of the cabbage, and finally rolled the flatbread. Then he concocted a few burritos and handed them over.

Zong Ze picked it up and took a bite of it, one word, cool! The rice cake with a thick rice aroma, the pickled cabbage that has absorbed the essence of chicken, and the tender and spicy chicken in it, it is no exaggeration to say that this dish is better than the non-turkey dish of Fangcai.

Zhao Jingyan is more bold by nature, she doesn't pay much attention to appearance, and she also takes a big bite without scruples about her image, but then again, when she looks like this, her every move is unique, and there is nothing unsightly at all, it will only make people pleasing to the eye, this is the advantage of beauty.

This is really a dish outside the dish, which shows that the deliciousness is limitless, so the cooking skills are naturally limitless.

A few people ate a lot of food, their mouths were stuffed, and they didn't even have the time to speak.

I'm afraid that only the dishes made by Li Qi can make people give up the words of the banquet.
