Datang Storyteller: Uncovering the Secret of Xuanwu Gate, Li Er was stunned

"Master Fang, Master Wei, how about you two sit down and try this hot pot!"

They're all old acquaintances, so there's no need to be too polite, just come here as you feel comfortable.

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Qin."

Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling were also very curious. Although they hadn't started to eat it yet, the aroma was indeed very attractive.

Both of them were a little impatient.

There are mutton rolls, beef rolls and pork rolls on the table, as well as marinated fish and chicken, in addition to many vegetarian dishes and meatballs.

Although there is no refrigerator in this era, this season can completely solve this problem.

According to Qin Yu's instructions, Lao Chen and Lao Wang took the beef and mutton to the yard and put them in the snow, where they were frozen in just one night. Whether it was sliced ​​or rolled, it was very convenient.

Besides meat, Qin Yu also made frozen tofu and some side dishes.

Such as pickled crispy radish, sweet and sour garlic, and old vinegar peanuts.

Yesterday, only the hot pot was made, and in the evening, Qin Yu brought Lao Chen and the others to make small ingredients.

Chili oil, sesame paste, crushed peanuts, coriander, and shallots were all prepared and placed on the table.

Li Shimin and the others blinked their eyes when they saw these things, and they were a little dazed, "Qin Yu, what is this?"

"Small material!"

"How do you eat this?"

"Dip and eat!"

Qin Yu began to prepare while talking.

Although Li Lizhi and the others don't understand, there's no need to know so much. They just learn how Qin Yu does it.

So Cassie, Li Lizhi, and Hou Hou didn't ask anything at all.

Following Qin Yu's example, he prepared small ingredients for himself.

Seeing that they were doing the same thing as himself, Qin Yu also reminded: "If you can't eat spicy food, put less chili."

Li Lizhi and others nodded, "Okay."

Li Shimin, Li Ke and Fang Xuanling also followed suit.

After stirring evenly, the mutton was picked up and poured into the pot to start rinsing.

After cooking the meat, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Cui Ren and the others stood up and carefully put the meat into their mouths.

Qin Yu glanced at them, wondering, "Why are you standing there? Sit down and eat!"

"Oh!"

"OK!!"

People sit down.

Rinse the meat and put it directly in your mouth.

Qin Yu glanced at the small ingredients in front of them, and reminded: "Dip it and eat it!"

So several people stood up in unison again.

Li Lizhi, Houhou and the others burst out laughing.

Qin Yu wanted to eat yam, because it took some time to cook, so he didn't move his chopsticks.

If he doesn't move, Li Lizhi and the others won't move.

Therefore, including Li Shimin and the others, they did not touch the small ingredients, and just fished them out and ate them just like yesterday.

Hearing Qin Yu say that eating while standing up is delicious, he even wondered, why eating while standing up is so delicious?
Isn't it delicious to do it?
But Li Lizhi, Houhou and the others understood Qin Yu's meaning and knew that what he was talking about was trivial, so they couldn't help laughing immediately.

Qin Yu was both helpless and amused at the same time. He pointed to the dipping material in front of them, then took a piece of mutton from the pot, put it into the dipping material, and ate it.

And said: "I said this small ingredient is delicious when dipped in it!"

Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng looked embarrassed.

Even the person in charge of the family is a little embarrassed.

The Malatang they ate yesterday, they ate it directly without seeing any small ingredients. How did they know that there are so many ways to eat hot pot?

I didn't expect such a joke to happen when I ate hot pot for the first time.

Really ashamed and ashamed.

Can't wait to find a hole to dig into.

"Oh, it turns out that the small ingredients should be dipped and eaten, I understand."

In order to hide their embarrassment, Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng quickly picked up a chopstick and dipped it into the bowl, then put it in their mouths.

Just entered.

Surprised expressions appeared on the faces of the two of them.

I really didn't expect that there is such a big difference between dipping sauce and no dipping sauce.

Just one bite, and the two fell in love with the taste.

The entrance is spicy and the mouth is full of fragrance.

"This hot pot is really delicious."

It's hot, hot and spicy, and it's exciting to eat.

Especially in this cold winter, eating such a pot makes the whole person warm.

Li Shimin sighed while eating, "It's a pity, this thing has to be on fire, otherwise it would be great for our soldiers of the Tang Dynasty to eat this hot hot pot."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the border is even colder than Chang'an. The soldiers have nothing to keep out of the cold, and they only eat flatbread. It is cold and hard, and it is really hard to swallow."

"If you can eat this hot hot pot, how comfortable it will be."

Fang Xuanling then sighed.

Thinking of the soldiers on the frontier, I immediately felt that the hot pot in front of me was a little tasteless.

The same is true for Li Shimin.

Soldiers suffer at the border, but here they eat and drink.

In fact, some should not.

Not only Li Shimin and Wei Zheng and others are like this.

Li Lizhi and Hou Hou couldn't bear it either.

While the rich wine and meat smell, the road with frozen bone!

It has been like this since ancient times.

Seeing that Li Shimin was worried about the soldiers, Qin Yu took out a piece of yam from the pot, dipped it in some ingredients, and said after eating, "What's the use of worrying? Eat yours first."

"If you are full, you will have the strength to think of a solution, right? And even if you don't eat now, you will end up starving with the soldiers, and nothing will change."

After Qin Yu finished speaking, he picked up a piece of yam and ate it again.

Li Shimin and Wei Zheng looked at me and I looked at you. They had to admit that what Qin Yu said made sense, and it was true.

Even if they don't eat it, the soldiers can't eat it either.

Having said that, they still lost their previous appetite.

Qin Yu scalded the vegetables in the pot, picked some for Li Lizhi and the others, and said, "You can eat at ease, I already have a way to make the soldiers eat hot pot."

"Is this true?"

"Mr. Qin, do you really have a solution?"

"Wow, is there really a way? Didn't you deceive us?"

Li Shimin, Wei Zheng, and Cheng Yaojin all asked.

Qin Yu gave Cheng Yaojin an angry look, "Do I need this?"

"That's right, it's really not necessary."

Cheng Yaojin nodded.

Hearing what Qin Yu said, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and the others gained confidence.

Li Tai and Li Ke were also very curious about this.

Hot pot is not a big cake, and it cannot be transported and carried, especially in places like the border. It is really difficult for soldiers to eat it.

So they really wanted to know what kind of solution Qin Yu had thought of.

"Okay, eat quickly, let's talk after eating."

Seeing everyone looking at him curiously, Qin Yu quickly stopped him.

People who cook food and people who cook food and soul cook rice are all masters.

When cooking, I just concentrate on cooking and don't think about anything.

Thinking too much will affect your appetite.

Hearing what Qin Yu said, Li Shimin and the others didn't say anything.

It was a lively meal, and it was quite enjoyable.

Originally, Li Shimin was going back to the palace after dinner, but he also stayed at this time.

He wanted to know what kind of solution Qin Yu had thought of.
