Chapter 705 The Temptation of Food

Chapter 733 The Temptation of Food

"Wow! This is... sweet potato?"

"Why does the color of this sweet potato look so attractive? Is it made of sugar? Good guy! How much sugar do you need for such a dish?"

Everyone sitting with Qin Yang and Li Lizhi were basically the top figures in various industries in Youzhou, but seeing this method of making sweet potatoes still surprised them.

The king is really willing to add condiments to his food!
In this shed, there are several plates of shredded sweet potatoes on every table.

The so-called bringing a few dishes is actually a few dishes, and each table has a few dishes.

It can't be that in this shed, only Qin Yang and the others are eating at this table, and the other tables are watching, right?
So, several servings per table.

Just looking at these sweet potatoes makes people feel like they are really eating their fingers.

"This is candied sweet potato. After the banquet is over, I will ask someone to give you the recipe of candied sweet potato. If you like it, you can make it yourself at home! Now everyone come to taste this candied sweet potato." Qin Yang laughed said.

Although he is the lord of Youzhou, he is very kind when he speaks on weekdays, as long as it is not related to official business.

So now that he said this, everyone immediately smiled and thanked, and then all looked at the shredded sweet potato.

Eating at this time actually pays attention to a table-sharing system.

But this kind of Wanjia banquet is different from the past. Everyone thinks it is quite accustomed and suitable to eat like this with a long table, because eating like this makes it more atmospheric and suits the festive atmosphere.

The amount of shredded sweet potatoes was large enough, and one portion was placed for one or two people, with public chopsticks and public spoons placed on top.

Using public chopsticks and a public spoon, he put some on his own plate and took the first bite, which amazed everyone present.

Even people who don't like sweets look like they're enjoying themselves after taking such a bite.

Youzhou is no longer what it used to be. In terms of diet, it has begun to move away from the category of "eat enough" and start to "eat well".

It can be said that the development of food in places where King Qinyang of Youzhou is present is stronger than in other places!
Because Qin Yang is not a gourmet in modern society, but he is a normal person who pursues food.

It is impossible for a person who pursues delicious food to be satisfied with the food of this era after wearing it to the early Tang Dynasty!
Qin Yang was too dissatisfied before, so when he was in Chang'an, he tinkered with a lot of things.

And when he eats, as long as he wants to eat, he is willing to put condiments!

Like some condiments that are more expensive than gold, he is really willing to put them away, and it can make the nobles feel pain for them!

And although his liking for candied sweet potatoes is not that deep, he is still a bit greedy, so since Youzhou was able to make sugar, he began to study some sugar-related delicacies.

Candied sweet potatoes are not made recently, but with sugar, after having sweet potatoes, research began, and this delicacy appeared.

But after really studying this delicacy, the taste became similar to what he ate in the hotel in later generations, but only recently.

At the Wan family banquet, he served this dish and it really amazed everyone.

Qin Yang sat at the head of the long table in the back, looked at everyone's expressions after eating candied sweet potatoes, and said with a smile: "Everyone, how does this candied sweet potato taste?"

how is the taste?Of course it's great!
"There are a few other dishes, let's taste them slowly." After speaking, Qin Yang ordered the next few dishes to be brought up one by one.

As soon as the second dish was served, everyone's noses sniffed in unison. The smell was so... fragrant!
"Sauerkraut fish." Qin Yang introduced with a smile, "The fish stewed with sauerkraut tastes very delicious. Let's taste it to your heart's content and see whether shredded sweet potato is better or pickled fish is better."

People who just said that shredded sweet potatoes are delicious, now eat pickled fish, that is faster!

The next few dishes were also made by Qin Yang using local specialties.

For example, the Northeastern stew, which will only be seen in later generations, and the recent favorite of Youzhou people, the pork and pickled cabbage stewed vermicelli, are all made by the chef and served.

In fact, there were pig head stewed vermicelli on each table.

At each table, everyone brought at least one or two dishes, and then gave each person a portion on a small plate.

All, almost all the dishes on the table have been tasted one by one.

But there is one thing to say, all the pork and sauerkraut stewed vermicelli in this shed are not as delicious as the pork and sauerkraut stewed vermicelli brought by their king.

In terms of careful tasting, in addition to being willing to put all kinds of precious condiments, the skill of the cook is also related to some cooking skills.

They cannot imitate the first two reasons, but they can absorb the last one and use it for themselves!

Just like before, Qin Yang told them that when the Wanjia Banquet is over, he will also tell them the recipe of this dish.

Li Lizhi accompanied Qin Yang and looked at the tables of men and women eating happily in the shed, which naturally made her in a good mood.

"Lizhi, you can eat it too. The dishes here basically have the characteristics of Youzhou. The ingredients used are all locally produced in Youzhou. Even if you can eat it in Chang'an, you can't eat it so happily, and the ingredients are not good. It might be so fresh." Qin Yang said with a smile.

After Li Lizhi came to Youzhou, she tasted some of Youzhou's specialties.

However, it was indeed the first time that he could eat so much at one time like today.

Although she was still in her prime, her appetite wasn't too small, but she tasted a few mouthfuls of everything and stopped eating.

Even so, the rice only used a small bowl.

"Husband, these sweet potatoes are very sweet, but I just ate too much..." Li Lizhi suddenly blushed when talking about this thing that she had loved to eat since she came here.

Qin Yang knew why the other party was blushing at a glance. He ate too many sweet potatoes and was easy to lose his temper. As a real little princess who loves beauty and is indeed beautiful, the other party naturally couldn't tolerate such an ugly appearance.

Seeing this, Qin Yang stopped persuading her, and only said to her: "Since you love sweets, I will study a few more desserts later, desserts that you can eat with confidence."

It's better to have low-sugar ones, which won't burden Li Lizhi psychologically.

Although the Tang Dynasty regarded fatness as beauty, this fatness was not the kind of fatness that later generations understood, but healthy and plump.In the early Tang Dynasty, the pursuit of plumpness was not as crazy as in the mid-Tang Dynasty. The aesthetics of the early Tang Dynasty still favored a moderate figure.

That's why Li Lizhi didn't dare to eat too much, which made Qin Yang feel like he was in the future.

When he was in later generations, most of the young girls he knew around were like this. They didn't dare to eat more when they encountered delicious food, for fear that they would gain weight after one night.

"However, if Li Zhi learns some martial arts that can be easily shaped, can she not worry about this?" When the Wanjia banquet was over, the young couple had another intimate thing at night, hugging their lovely wife, Qin Yang thought suddenly.
