Chapter 721 Gold, Jade and Gold Wire Duo
With the yellow door shouting, the palace maid brought the third side dish. They were white porcelain bowls. It was as white as snow that the golden light in the bowl was reflected.
"Wow, is this thing a stew?" Cao Ren couldn't help but exclaimed at the yellow and golden dishes in the bowl.
"The main body is cabbage... it should not be a mutant baby cabbage..." Cao Cao picked up some of the chopsticks. These were shredded vegetables cut from baby cabbage. There were also some things that were not shredded vegetables. She also picked them up and looked at them, "This seems to be shredded meat..."
"Cabbage chicken shredded!" Liu Bei quickly realized, "This is cabbage chicken shredded. I remember a special chef who made this, which is stewed with shredded chicken with baby cabbage!"
"So, what's going on with this golden and thick sauce?" Cao Ren scooped up some with a spoon and put it in his mouth.
Almost instantly, a strong smell of umami swept over and rushed towards her brain roughly, causing a brief blank in her brain, which only came back to her senses about 0.5 seconds.
"Ah~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~" Cao Ren said lazyly. The fragrance of this umami is too strong. It is obviously not too fragrant and thick, but the umami and sweetness are really intoxicating.
"It should be the broth..." Cao Cao also tried it. The umami taste that hit his forehead was simply unreasonable. "Vegetables... are not simply mixed broth made of chicken and vegetables, but probably the result of waste utilization."
After all, this dish uses chicken. After the chicken is used, the chicken bones are added with beef bones, and vegetables and soup are added to cook them. Finally, the broth with high umami and sweetness is produced. The key is that the taste is not too strong and belongs to the light system.
I just complained that the other party might serve the white-kill chicken in the side dish, but the chicken was served, and it turned out to be like this! The shredded chicken was obviously shredded chicken with white-kill chicken, and the baby cabbage was just blanched, but it was precisely because of this soup that the dish was injected with soul!
"But what's going on with this sticky feeling?" Liu Bei looked at the soup in the bowl in disbelief.
"Nan... melon..." Lu Bu said slowly, and the dazed hair on his head seemed very happy. Add pumpkin to the broth and then smash it into a paste at high speed, making the broth sticky and golden.
After all, it is to spread the blanched baby cabbage and shredded chicken in a bowl and then pour pumpkin stock outside. It sounds easy, but it is very troublesome to make, especially the stewing of the stock, which is a very waste of time in itself.
"But then again... with such a rich soup, the baby cabbage and shredded chicken underneath are tender and delicious, and it is rare to be very sweet. Although the whole dish is of high flavor and high in mellowness, it is not greasy, which is very magical!" Liu Bei sighed.
"To be precise, the baby cabbage is crispy, sweet and delicious, while the chicken shreds are extremely tender, which complements the taste very well." Cao Cao slowly tasted it, and the taste was very comfortable.
"So that's it... the hall is full of gold and jade... It's much more reliable than the milk swallow returning to the nest just now..." Wang Yun slowly tasted the dishes in the bowl and said with a smile.
"The first soup and the name of this dish are very appropriate. Who named the second dish?" Fu Wan nodded in agreement.
"Ah snee!" In the kitchen, Wang Yong suddenly sneezes, and then couldn't help but complain: Who is talking about him behind his back, so rude...
"I'm infected with wind and cold? I heard that even the poison that can easily poison people can't do anything to you, but I lost to the mere wind and cold?" Yang Xiu joked proudly.
"Speaking of it, I have never caught a cold after growing up so old..." Wang Yong thought about it, and he still has no record of colds and fever. He is good in health and high immunity, and he has never had any colds and fevers. He is really amazing. "I guess it is a beauty who is talking about me behind my back..."
"I'm going to serve the fourth dish, are you ready?" Yang Xiu ignored this guy and shouted to the kitchen.
"It's ready, let's arrange the time immediately!" One of the imperial chefs shouted and responded. Although this dish was a recipe provided by Wang Yong, he personally presided over the cooking.
"The fifth dish... the golden silk emperor chrysanthemum!" Huangmen shouted, which also indicates that the fourth dish began to be served. The palace maid took away the tableware as before, and then another palace maid put down the new dish.
Are those two blooming chrysanthemums? The golden petals look very beautiful, of course... Of course, this is not a chrysanthemum, this is a chrysanthemum fish! However, the knife skills are really good. Each 'petal' is very subtle. It is rare that such a slender petal is still adhered to the 'chrysanthemum' after being fried with powder, which is very rare.
This knife skill and heat are not enough to be achieved by the level of high-quality chefs. It is rare to use kitchen paper to absorb the excess oil. At the same time, a faint orange smell in the prepared sauce is very comfortable!
"I have to say that when I first saw this, I thought it was chrysanthemum..." Liu Bei sighed, and she immediately remembered that there was a dish in the royal dinner before, which was chrysanthemum fish. However, compared with that at that time, the cooking skills of this cooking have been significantly improved.
This is not surprising. Except for the emperor's part, it was basically cooked by ordinary chefs. Even if there were recipes, a large number of intermediate chefs and low-quality senior chefs were mixed together, and of course the finished products were slightly less.
"If I remember correctly, this recipe should have been invented by Master Wang, right?" Fu Wan picked up a 'chrysanthemum', put these 'chrysanthemum' in the bamboo basket, and there was a piece of kitchen paper underneath, with two 'chrysanthemums' each, which looked very unique.
"Indeed, I still remember the chrysanthemum fish at that time. I didn't expect that it would take so long to say the cooking skills." Wang Yun couldn't help but sigh at the 'chrysanthemum' on the chopsticks.
"The key is the taste!" Lu Zhi dipped it in the sauce and then ate it. The orange fragrance was very prominent, but it was not so rich that it destroyed the taste of chrysanthemum fish. Instead, it suppressed the unique greasy chrysanthemum fish. It was crispy on the outside and soft and delicious on the inside, especially the meat of the fish, which is really unspeakable.
"This should be a wild grass carp caught in the wild. It is rare to pick up fish bones so clean. You can eat them in big mouthfuls. There is no need to worry about fish bones." Lu Zhi praised.
"Indeed, this meaty texture seems to be alive. The meaty texture created by surviving in a wild environment is much better than that of breeding." Wang Yun nodded.
"Although it has nothing to do with chrysanthemums, this 'chrysanthemum' is definitely the most beautiful chrysanthemum I have ever seen. The Golden Silk Emperor chrysanthemum is worthy of its name." Fu Wan nodded.
"Have you noticed that the chicken used in Jinyu Mantang was not the type in captivity, but should be a free-range type. Not to mention the mixed fish soup, it is definitely a wild variety..." Lu Zhi suddenly realized something.
