Li Shimin

Li Xuan opened his mouth, but still held back his words.

Soon, a pile of processed coal was put into the furnace.

The charcoal fire in the entire stove suddenly became larger by two circles.

After a quarter of an hour.

Li Yuan, Li Chenglu, and Li Chang, each holding a dark sweet potato, gasped and ate it with relish.

Moreover, while eating, but also non-stop praise.

"Sweet potatoes that have just been dug out of the ground are even more delicious when baked!"

"What the Supreme Emperor said is very true. The old servant was lucky enough to eat the sweet potatoes baked by the Supreme Emperor. He died without any regrets!"

"Yeah... The sweet potatoes baked by Grandpa Huang are so delicious..."

On the side, Li Xuan looked at the thick sweet potato in his hand, which had been roasted black, sighed helplessly, and took a big bite.

"It's all about my own mouth, a good sweet potato, and only half of it was burnt!"

Fortunately, there are seven sweet potatoes in this stove, and he can eat another one.

Otherwise, after working so hard for so long, and only ate one bite of roasted sweet potato, it would be really sad!

Chapter 773 Ready to Eat Hot Pot

After eating, Li Yuan wiped his hands clean, and began to urge Li Xuan.

In addition, there was Li Chenglu, a naughty man beside him, who babbled non-stop, and Li Xuan, who was most afraid of people annoying him, could only wipe his hands casually, and then took Li Chang, and walked back.

If you want to eat hot pot, you must prepare a very important thing after all the utensils, pots and pans, and various ingredients are prepared.

Hot pot base!

Although Li Xuan had never cooked the hot pot base in his previous life.

However, I can't stand the family foundation in this life.

Moreover, the most scarce dry chili in the entire Tang Dynasty, he has prepared two thousand catties in the warehouse in his village.

Pepper, cinnamon, star anise, ginger, bay leaves, scallions... Li Xuan also directly asked Li Chang to find five of the seasonings and sesame oil that are needed!

"My lord, do you need so many condiments to make a meal?"

Looking at the huge pile of objects in front of him, Li Chang said in surprise.

"It's just making the base material!"

Li Xuan smiled lightly, and then directed to the five cooks beside him: "You follow the steps that the king just explained, and start stir frying!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Hearing this, the five cooks hurriedly started.

However, the Taishanghuang, his own king, and the man from the house all stared at them, and the cooks were a little nervous.

"Just pretend that this king and others don't exist, and speculate with confidence!"

Li Xuan couldn't help but said helplessly.

It's just that it's fine if Li Xuan doesn't say anything.

The more you talk, the more important these five chefs are.

What they fried was the peerless delicacy that the king said, and the emperor came all the way from the city of Chang'an to eat.

If any step of their frying is not perfect, which affects the taste, even if they are all driven out of the village, it will not be enough to offset their crimes.

"Ugh!"

Seeing this, Li Xuan could only sigh softly.

All the chefs trembled again.

"These five big pots are all frying base ingredients for a while, and the proportions in each of the five people's pots are different, because I don't know which one is delicious when fried.

Therefore, as long as you stir fry with confidence, this king will choose one to eat from the five fried by the five of you! "

"Xuanba doesn't even know the secret recipe?"

Hearing this, not only were the five chefs all covered in slack, but Li Yuan was also a little dumbfounded.

"Yup!"

Li Xuan nodded sincerely.

"You don't even know the secret recipe, so you just swear that this is a peerless delicacy?" Li Yuan asked anxiously.

"Old man, what do you think about the taste of ordinary stir-fried vegetables?"

Li Xuan asked slowly.

"It's very delicious!" Li Yuan replied casually.

"Then you must know that the condiments that are usually put in stir-fried dishes are not even the condiments in these pots!" Li Xuan said.

"The old man knows!"

Li Yuan nodded.

"Then what do you think, if the food is fried with ten times more condiments than stir-fried vegetables, how will it taste better than stir-fried vegetables?" Li Xuan asked again.

"It will be ten times more fragrant!"

Li Yuan said directly.

"So, isn't this a peerless delicacy?"

Li Xuan smiled lightly.

"However, I don't know the art of cooking, but I also know that cooking seasonings also need a certain proportion, just in moderation..."

Li Yuan hesitated and said slowly.

"It's okay, don't worry, you don't know how to cook, I do!"

Li Xuan comforted with a confident face.

"Besides, there are so many delicacies in Chang'an City, how many of them are made by me?"

"So, for the time being..."

Li Yuan thought about it for a while, and it was also the same reason. Although Jin Wang Li Xuan was not the most powerful person in the Tang Dynasty, he was the best eater, and also the best eater.

Moreover, even if the food fried with so many condiments does not taste very good, it will never be so bad.

Suddenly, Li Yuan stared.

"Why did you pour the liquor in?"

"It's just seasoning!"

Li Xuan said.

"But……"

Li Yuan looked at the half-empty bottle of white wine, with a look of reluctance on his face.

"Don't worry, old man, this baijiu will never be wasted, and when the time comes, I will let you eat the bottom of the pot!" Li Xuan said hastily.

"Hmph, it's only natural!"

Li Yuan looked arrogant.

After a while, a strong fragrance came out from the five cauldrons in front of the crowd.

"Old man, how does this taste?" Li Xuan asked.

"Smells! When people smell it, they will whet their appetite!"

Li Yuan's eyes widened and he said expectantly.

"At that moment, you have to have a good taste!"

Li Xuan said with a smile on his face, according to what he smelled, among the five cauldrons, at least three of the bottom ingredients boiled in the cauldrons were successful!

"Just, is there too much chili in this pot?"

Li Yuan's face brightened for a while, but when he remembered something, he began to look worried again.

"Don't worry, old man, these peppers are the soul of this delicacy!"

Li Xuan knew why Li Yuan was worried, and said slowly: "Besides, these chili peppers are intentionally reduced!"

"Is that less?"

Li Yuan was stunned.

"Old man, look at the pot on the far side again?"

Li Xuan said.

"hiss……"

Li Yuan looked, his cheeks twitched involuntarily.

On the cauldron, there was a thick layer of bright red chili peppers floating. Just looking at it, Li Yuan felt that it was spicy all over his body.

"It's okay!"

Li Xuan chuckled lightly, "When the time comes to serve these big pots together, you only need to try them one by one, and you can eat whichever kind of spiciness you can accept!"

"Very good, very good!"

Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

"You will cook it for this king at this speed, cook it for half an hour, let's talk!"

Feeling that the time was almost up, Li Xuan gave instructions to several chefs.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"In addition, you have been in this prince's mansion for so long, and your cooking master knows it. If you think there is any way to improve the fragrance of these ingredients, feel free to say it, my prince I will definitely reward you according to your contributions!"

"King Duoxi!"

The five chefs were overjoyed.

My king will be rewarded for his meritorious service, and he will never be stingy!

This is the consensus of everyone in the village!

"Come on, old man, go to the back kitchen to clean up the dishes and see what you want to eat later!"

Li Xuan said again.

"Go to the back kitchen?"

Li Yuan was taken aback.

"It's natural!"

Li Xuan said: "In a while, after the bottom ingredients are cooked, you can cook something in it and eat at the same time!"

"It turned out to be like this!"

Li Yuan nodded slowly, somewhat understanding, and at the same time, a trace of expectation flashed in his eyes.He has never tried eating like this!

"Lamb, pork, fish, duck blood... and sweet potatoes, potatoes, etc., can be cooked in. What does the old man want to eat?"

Turning around in the back kitchen, Li Xuan asked Li Yuan.

"Can this pig brain and pig belly be eaten?"

Li Yuan stopped directly in front of the pile of pig meat, and asked curiously.

Chapter 774

"Anyway, I only like to eat pig belly. It is definitely delicious when cooked with hot pot ingredients. As for pig brain, it depends on your own preferences!" Li Xuan smiled lightly.

"Xuan Ba, these are all offal, boiled in a pot, how does it taste?"

Li Yuan was a little skeptical.
