PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Ye Qingyun looked at the cook.

The cook also looked at Ye Qingyun.

The two stared at each other.

They can all feel each other's doubts.

The cook is wondering, what is blanching?

Ye Qingyun was wondering, does this cook not even know how to blanch water?

"You don't know how to blanch water?"

"Uh, sir, forgive me, I don't know what blanching is."

""

All right!

Ye Qingyun didn't blame him either.

After all, the advanced cooking skills of blanching are too high-end for the cooks in this world.

It’s not surprising if I don’t understand.

"For blanching, you actually put the washed and cut meat into the pot, and then pour water into it."

"Not too much water, not too little, just enough to cover the meat."

"Then add some green onion and ginger, and pour some wine into it."

"Turn on high heat until the water boils and the meat is cooked."

Ye Qingyun patiently guided.

He did not hesitate to teach the cook his special skills of blanching water.

The cook was stunned for a moment after hearing this.

It turns out that this is blanching.

It's really profound.

Although I still don’t quite understand the secrets involved, since it’s the Tutor’s request, I can just do it myself.

Ever since.

The fat cook, according to Ye Qingyun, began to blanch the sliced ​​pork belly.

Put the meat into the pot, then pour in water, then add onions, ginger and wine.

"Master, do you think this is the case?"

"Yeah, let's light the fire."

"yes!"

The fat cook looked delighted, as if he felt that his performance satisfied Ye Qingyun.

Can be recognized by a big shot.

For a humble cook, this is quite an honor.

The other two cooks were envious.

They also wanted to say a few words to Ye Qingyun, and even more wanted to get Ye Qingyun's praise.

It's a pity that there is no such opportunity.

I didn't dare to come forward rashly and join in the conversation.

After blanching the pork belly.

The next step is Ye Qingyun's own business.

There is no harm in teaching others something as trivial as blanching water.

But the real core secret of braised pork cannot be easily passed on to others.

Until now, only Guo Xiaoyun has obtained the true inheritance of Ye Qingyun's cooking skills.

What he made was 60 to 70% as good as Ye Qingyun.

"Peel the garlic for me, the more the better, and then mash it into a paste."

"Yes Yes Yes!"

The three cooks got busy together and started peeling and pounding garlic for Ye Qingyun.

Ye Qingyun worked on the stove for a while.

Then put the lid on the pot.

"Your Highness, we have to wait patiently for an hour."

Ye Qingyun said to Li Yuanxiu.

"It doesn't matter, the dishes prepared by the master are worth waiting for."

Li Yuanxiu smiled.

Ye Qingyun looked at the three cooks.

"Help me watch and light the fire. Remember that the fire must be small, never big."

"Call me again in an hour."

The three cooks nodded repeatedly.

"Little people remember."

Ye Qingyun and Li Yuanxiu left the kitchen first.

The wait for this hour also seemed quite long.

Especially for Li Yuanxiu.

He was actually very hungry.

But because Ye Qingyun cooked the food himself, it was not easy for him to eat other things.

All we can do is wait with Ye Qingyun.

Although Ye Qingyun was also a little hungry, he knew that the braised pork should not be rushed and must be simmered slowly.

The braised pork stewed in this way becomes even more delicious.

Don’t be afraid of being late for a good meal.

I'm afraid of impatient people.

As soon as the hour came, the fat cook came.

"His Royal Highness, Master Taifu, it has been an hour."

"good!"

Ye Qingyun stood up and left.

Li Yuanxiu also hurriedly followed.

Came to the kitchen again.

Li Yuanxiu smelled a faint aroma.

He couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Suddenly his eyes lit up.

"smell good!"

Li Yuanxiu suddenly felt like his mouth was drooling.

My stomach growled even more.

Ye Qingyun came to the stove and opened the lid of the pot.

There is not much soup left.

He quickly stir-fried it a few times.

Sprinkle some more salt to taste.

Eventually the soup becomes thicker.

"Bring me a plate!"

The fat cook on the side hurriedly came over with a plate in both hands.

Ye Qingyun poured out all the braised pork.

Immediately, everyone present's eyes widened.

The meat is so beautiful too.

Each one is maroon red, shiny, and exudes an alluring aroma.

The three cooks were all amazed.

Pork belly, which is usually slightly fatty, can actually be made like this?

It's simply a masterpiece of craftsmanship.

They couldn't imagine how this plate of meat was made.

It's simply beyond their imagination.

"It needs to be steamed again."

Ye Qingyun said.

The fat cook immediately put the plate of meat into the steamer.

Then start adding fire to the bottom of the steamer.

Taking advantage of this time, Ye Qingyun began to stir-fry green vegetables.

Garlic greens.

A very simple dish.

It doesn't take much time either.

Wait until the steamer starts to smoke.

Garlic greens were also prepared by Ye Qingyun.

Just two dishes.

Nothing superfluous.

"Your Highness, let's eat here."

Ye Qingyun suggested.

Li Yuanxiu didn't care either.

"good!"

Immediately, servants brought tables and chairs.

Two plates of food were served.

Two bowls of rice were delivered to both of them.
"Your Highness, please try my craftsmanship."

Ye Qingyun said with a smile.

"Master, please go first!"

Even though he was very hungry, Li Yuanxiu still politely let Ye Qingyun eat first.

"You try it first."

Ye Qingyun was not in a hurry.

"That student is rude."

Li Yuanxiu was also so hungry that he even put a chopstick of braised pork into his mouth.

He doesn't like eating pork belly very much on weekdays, and he even has some resistance to pork.

Because he thinks pork is too fatty.

And the smell is a bit fishy.

But when you eat this piece of pork belly, not only does it not smell fishy at all, but it also doesn't feel fat at all.

Delicious and delicious!

Melts in your mouth!

Li Yuanxiu was immediately shocked.

I can hardly believe that there is such a delicious thing in this world.

He froze there for a moment.

He stared blankly at the plate of braised pork.

"Your Highness, how do you feel about the taste?"

Ye Qingyun asked with a smile.

"Master, this meat is so delicious!"

Li Yuanxiu said in great shock.

This is not a compliment.

It's a feeling that comes from within.

As a prince, Li Yuanxiu has been richly clothed and well-fed since he was a child. What good food has he not eaten?

But this braised pork completely broke his previous understanding of food.

What is delicious food?

Just this plate of braised pork is as good as anything Li Yuanxiu has ever eaten in his life.

He couldn't help but pick up a chopstick and put it into his mouth.

Give it a sizzle.

A piece of meat was swallowed.

Because it's too soft and waxy.

No need to chew at all.

Li Yuanxiu took a big bite of rice.

Great appetite.

The servants on the side were dumbfounded.

This was the first time they saw Li Yuanxiu eating like this.

His Highness was completely different from the one they remembered.
