Chapter 78 Zao Zhi, determined to grow mulberry trees
When Xun Yu took the order and went back to prepare for the lecture tomorrow, Zao Zhi was looking at Fei Qianqian expectantly and told him what the name of this piece of grass was and what it did.
Fei Qian had just handed over a glass of water by Zao Zhi, and then he suddenly remembered that this green grass, when Fei Qian went to the farmhouse, someone introduced him to a name called "Yu lei", and the word "Yu" in it refers to water control.
That Dayu.
It is said that after Dayu successfully controlled the floods, the crops in the fields had a bumper harvest, and the people could not eat all the food they produced. Dayu ordered the remaining food to be poured into the river, and a kind of grass grew in the river. People called this grass "Yu's Leek".
”.
Zao Zhi said "Oh", obviously more interested, and said: "There is such a saying, so since it is called leek, it must be edible?"
Fei Qian nodded and said: "The roots of this herb are not only edible, but can also be used as medicine. They have the effects of nourishing yin, relieving coughs, and clearing the heart..."
Zaozhi's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he really wanted to cut off the rhizome and eat it right away.
Fei Qian recalled the dish made from this grass that he had eaten at the farmhouse, and he couldn't stop drooling. He squinted his eyes while recalling and said: "If you use the rhizome of this grass, then remove the feathers from a chick and wash it, then add it to the dish."
Stew slowly over low heat, and only need to add a little refined salt, the sweet and warm air can remove the greasiness of the chicken, making the soup clear, moist, sweet and delicious. It can also nourish yin and moisturize the lungs, clear the heart and relieve troubles. It is simply unparalleled.
So delicious..."
Before he finished speaking, Fei Qian heard the stomach of Zao Zhi next to him making a rumble...
Zao Zhi said with some embarrassment: "Brother's description was so vivid that it actually caused the hungry worms in my belly to scream..."
Can you blame me? I haven’t said anything else delicious yet…
It's a pity that in the Eastern Han Dynasty, many things were unavailable...
Fei Qian looked a little lonely and sighed.
Zao Zhi thought that what he just said had hurt Fei Qian, so he apologized quickly.
Fei Qian shook his head and said: "I just sighed because I thought of a lot of delicious food but can't eat it now. It has nothing to do with me."
"Brother, you might as well tell me what delicious food you have, so that I can have a taste of it." When talking about the delicious food, Zao Zhi seemed to be particularly interested.
Okay, since you are willing to die, I will be willing to bury it - Fei Qian thinks that it is idle now. Maybe talking about delicious food can also promote digestion, so that he can have a good appetite when eating later, so he and Zao Zhi
Let’s talk——
"Just talking about this chicken, it can be fried, stir-fried, boiled, deep-fried, boiled, stewed, simmered, grilled, grilled, etc." Fei Qian's reputation as a street food connoisseur did not come for nothing.
, I spread it with my fingers...
"Wait, wait, wait for the little brother to get the paper and pen," Zao Zhi hurriedly found the paper and pen and laid them out. He looked at Fei Qian with bright eyes and said, "Brother, please tell me——"
"For example, this method of frying characters, the simplest way is to debone the chicken..." Fei Qian didn't care, Zao Zhi could just remember it if he wanted to. Anyway, with the current conditions in the Han Dynasty, there were many dishes that I could only think about, no
It's easy to do, but even if Zaozhi has memorized it, it may not be possible to restore it.
Under Fei Qian's vivid description, Zao Zhi was writing at the side, making crazy notes while humming, while admiring Fei Qian. This man actually knew so many delicious recipes, it was simply -
—What a foodie in the world! I thought I was quite good at eating this piece of food, but I didn’t expect that compared with Fei Qian, there is a world of difference...
Fei Qian rambled on for a long time, swallowed his saliva and sighed: "It's a pity that there are many things that can't be done now..."
Zao Zhi asked seriously: "Why can't it be done?"
Fei Qian shook his head and did not directly answer Zao Zhi's question, but said: "On the way here, my younger brother once asked an old farmer, saying that the upper fields can produce four stones of coarse millet, while the lower fields can only produce less than one stone, but now the world can produce more than one stone of grain.
How many fields are there? Moreover, today’s world is in chaos, and many people still have no food and clothing. Even if these dishes are made, they can only be eaten occasionally by people like us. How can those people afford it? "
In future generations, ordinary people and working-class people will have to eat at least one meal of meat and most of them can afford it. Only what they can afford to eat and sell well will become popular in future generations.
But in the Eastern Han Dynasty, for example, ordinary people were reluctant to completely remove the husks of corn when eating, because it would be lighter in weight, and most of them were eaten with the bran...
You say under such conditions, what's the point even if you can cook dishes for later generations? It's just to satisfy the appetites of the dignitaries of the day.
Food is the most fundamental thing. Only when there is enough food can we create the tricks of later generations. Otherwise, if people are so hungry that they would even chew the bark of trees, who would care about any innovative cooking methods?
So when Fei Qian said this reason, Zao Zhi was also silent. Yes, for the current mulberry farming, what is important is not innovation in patterns, but output.
Fei Qian thought, I will tell you because many processes cannot be done now, and there are many ingredients that cannot be found? Anyway, these dishes are just for you. How can I show that I have the world in mind without telling some scenes?
Woolen cloth?
Sure enough, Zao Zhi was still very fond of this. After listening to Fei Qian's explanation, he took a piece of paper full of writing and was in a dilemma. Should he throw it away, he would feel it was a pity, but should he not throw it away, he would feel that he was not pursuing the food he wanted.
Compared with Zhiyu and Fei Qian, this realm is far different...
Fei Qian smiled secretly when he saw this, alas, this is a young man who has never seen the world——
Do you think that when you were working in the office of later generations, the newcomer was not deceived by the old people in the workplace? Looking at the impassioned looks of all the old people, you thought that everyone was a good employee who loved his job, dedicated himself to the company, and regarded the company as his home.
The sentence "I am proud of the company today, and the company will be proud of me tomorrow" was recited loudly. I was full of energy and rushed to do any dirty work. It didn't matter if I didn't get paid. But in the end, I realized that those old oilmen were just slogans.
The scream was loud, but there was something else under his hands...
When Fei Qian saw Zao Zhi's youthful appearance, it was similar to seeing a new employee who had just entered the industry in later generations...
Fei Qian then comforted Zao Zhi with a very skillful trick and said: "Brother, you don't have to be like this. I see that my brother is interested in farming and mulberry. I am sure he will achieve great success in the future! Then I will come back to take advantage of him!"
Zao Zhi nodded seriously and said, "Thank you for your encouragement, brother!" He was full of passion and felt that what Fei Qian said was so good. He must achieve certain achievements in mulberry farming in the future!
Looking at Zao Zhi's serious look, Fei Qian felt a little sorry for bullying an honest man. It happened that the servant of the Xun family in the courtyard came over to tell him that dinner was ready, so he and Zao Zhi walked out to eat the Xun family's big pot rice while casually
He said: "This time my father-in-law Xun is talking about something, he asked me to study in Jingxiang. After I arrive in Jingxiang, if there is a chance, I will try to cook a few more dishes for my brother to try..."
