Xuan Yue was a little surprised at first as to why Gu Zheng would ask these questions, but when she saw Gu Zheng's smiling eyes, she instantly understood that the master wanted to listen to her.
"It's just a feeling. Maybe this is the talent that Master mentioned!"
Xuan Yue smiled proudly, and at the end she didn't forget to stick out her tongue at Gu Zheng.
"Some things can't be done just by feeling."
As Gu Zheng spoke, his eyes looked in one direction: "Now go to a place ten feet away from here and find a high-grade ingredient for me! I walked over slowly, and when I got there,
I hope you can find that high-grade ingredient."
Gu Zheng now has no spiritual power to use, but his understanding of food ingredients is still there. Moreover, this monster's body has a very keen sense of smell. He has already smelled a high-grade food plant in the direction ten feet away that is exuding a special smell.
It has a delicate fragrance, and this high-grade ingredient is mixed in a bunch of ingredients, so it can be used to teach Xuan Yue a lesson.
"Okay, disciple, come over right away!"
Xuan Yue was a little excited. Of course she knew that Gu Zheng was testing her, but since she didn't use her spiritual sense to explore that area beforehand, she naturally didn't know what ingredients were waiting for her there.
She was excited, but Xuan Yue didn't think that the test Gu Zheng gave her would be easy. She almost flew towards the place Gu Zheng pointed at as fast as she could.
The branches and leaves seemed to automatically avoid Xuan Yue when she approached, so that Xuan Yue, dressed in white, looked very chic.
For flying, the distance of ten feet can be said to be reached in an instant. Without the obstruction of branches and leaves, Xuan Yue's sight naturally broadened first. The original curiosity in her eyes became solemn because of the broadened sight.
There is a fallen tree ten feet away. This big tree has fallen down for an unknown number of years. Most of the entire tree has rotted away. The section of the trunk that has not rotted is about one foot long.
It looks like it has been transformed into jade, it looks very shiny, and there are more than a dozen red Ganoderma lucidum plants growing on it that are also very shiny.
There were big and small red Ganoderma lucidum. Xuan Yue could tell at a glance that the ingredients were not of high quality, but there were three large Ganoderma lucidum that gave Xuan Yue a hard time. She couldn't tell which one just by feeling.
This is high-grade food.
Xuan Yue has never come into contact with the red Ganoderma lucidum. Even though she carefully observed it, she couldn't get the correct answer from the color.
Xuan Yue is a little anxious, because Gu Zheng is approaching, and now she wants to distinguish which Ganoderma lucidum is the real high-grade ingredient. There are only two methods, one is to use spiritual power to deeply explore, and the other is to taste it personally.
The detection of ingredients by spiritual thoughts still relies to a large extent on one's own experience with the ingredients. For a Ganoderma lucidum that has never been seen before, Xuan Yue felt that even if she could use her spiritual thoughts to detect its grade, Gu Zheng would not be able to detect it at that time.
It must have come to her.
If she uses the method of tasting, coupled with the experience in ingredients taught to her by Gu Zheng, Xuan Yue feels that she can determine which Ganoderma lucidum is the real high-end ingredient before Gu Zheng arrives. However, tasting requires
Destroying the quality of the ingredients is naturally a disgrace to Xuan Yue, who is already considered an expert chef.
"Master was able to know in advance that there were high-quality ingredients here, and it must have been through the method of distinguishing smells. But smells are not like tastes. In the way of eating, they are more inclined to the kind that can only be understood but cannot be expressed. This is something I am relatively involved in.
It’s such a shallow field!”
Thinking in her mind, Xuan Yue turned around and looked at Gu Zheng who was approaching with some sadness.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Looking at Xuan Yue's eyes, Gu Zheng couldn't help but smile: "Are you in trouble?"
"Master, you are lying. You know that I have relatively little experience in smell, but you still give me such a difficult problem!" Xuan Yue complained.
"Actually, this is not too difficult a question. If you understand from the beginning that this little test that Master gives you is related to smell, then you will be able to carefully distinguish the smell in the air from the beginning. Three
Ganoderma lucidum is the same Ganoderma lucidum. Even if there are two strains that are very close to the edge of high-end food ingredients, there will still be some differences in smell compared to the one that has become high-end food ingredients. Even if you have not come into contact with it before, you can
The unique aroma of this kind of high-end ingredients, especially when compared with the same kind, will still appear relatively obvious! You are very talented in the way of eating. If you calm down and distinguish it now, I think you will know soon.
Which Ganoderma lucidum is the high-grade food ingredient!"
After listening to Gu Zheng's sincere words, Xuan Yue closed her eyes and took a deep breath without exaggeration, but Gu Zheng knew that she was really carefully distinguishing the fragrance of the three red Ganoderma lucidum.
The vintages of the three red Ganoderma lucidum strains are actually very close. Two of them are very close to high-end ingredients, and the other one has just become a high-end ingredient. The fragrances they emit are really very similar. Most people can't find it through the fragrance.
The difference between them is obvious. However, the difference in fragrance does indeed exist. Xuan Yue can still detect this differentiated fragrance with careful discrimination.
Three breaths, just three breaths of time, Xuan Yue opened her eyes excitedly, and with a wave of her hand, she pulled out the smallest of the three Ganoderma lucidum plants.
"Master, this Ganoderma lucidum is that high-grade ingredient!" Xuan Yue affirmed.
Gu Zheng nodded: "Yes, although it is the smallest of the three red Ganoderma lucidum strains, in terms of medicinal efficacy, it is indeed the only high-grade ingredient among the three Ganoderma lucidum strains."
"Disciple, when walking in a jungle rich in food resources, you not only need to use your eyes to find food, but your sense of smell is also very important sometimes."
After Gu Zheng said this, he walked forward again. Xuan Yue stood there thoughtfully for a moment, and then followed him excitedly.
It has to be said that Xuan Yue is really talented in the way of food. In the following time, she really used her sense of smell to carefully distinguish the smells emitted by the ingredients in the air. She also simply used her sense of smell.
I found four high-level ingredients.
On the first day when Gu Zheng and Xuan Yue entered the space world, they walked and stopped all the way. It was considered a long way, but they were still far away from the tribe in the north. After all, Gu Zheng had told Xuan Yue before
However, it would take a whole day to fly from the top of the mountain to the tribe in the north.
Although they walked a long way in the jungle, it was very peaceful along the way. There were no monsters to harass Gu Zheng and Xuan Yue. At most, they encountered some wild beasts, and they were all herbivorous.
And one of the beasts that looked like an elk, Gu Zheng specially asked Xuan Yue to take it away.
Although you cannot bring a storage belt into the space world, Guzheng's inner magic beads can also be used as a storage belt. However, after all, the inner magic beads are not a special storage space. They are not spaces that can be used to store dead things such as food.
It's not big. If calculated based on the amount of ingredients Gu Zheng and the others collected today, it would take up to three days to fill up the originally small space.
There is no sun or moon in this space world, but there is still plenty of light during the day, and it will also be dark at night. When dusk is approaching, Gu Zheng and Xuan Yue stopped in a forest clearing. Gu Zheng planned to go there tonight
Rest here.
Gu Zheng's current body is that of a monster, and he can only lie quietly on the ground, while Xuan Yue is busy, humming excitedly a tune that Gu Zheng has never heard.
Gu Zheng wants to taste Xuan Yue's cooking tonight, which makes Xuan Yue very happy.
Xuan Yue doesn't cook many times, and she can count them on one hand. This is not because she doesn't want to do it, but because she has not had much time to spend on cooking since she came into contact with food.
Go! During the time in the cave, Xuan Yue only cooked once. The rest of the time, she was practicing the Tiexian Art.
"Master, we have been traveling for a day, have you developed any new feelings about this space world?"
Xuan Yue asked out her curiosity while handling the ingredients.
"Yes! We have plenty of time to enter this space world this time. Even if we are delayed here for the first half of a year, the weapon spirit will not wake up from its slumber, so there is no need to worry about it getting in the way." Gu.
Zheng said.
"Very good!"
Xuan Yue cheered, there was no clear explanation before Guzheng when the weapon spirit would wake up, so Xuan Yue was still a little worried about this. After all, if the weapon spirit wakes up suddenly, who knows what it will do.
Yao Mozi.
"Master, shall we continue walking slowly towards the north like this?" Xuan Yue asked again.
"What's wrong? Don't you want to rush on like this?" Gu Zheng asked back.
"I think it's quite interesting to travel like this. Collecting ingredients can also deepen your understanding of the ingredients. But if you rush like this, it won't be long before you have no place to put the collected ingredients! Moreover, although Qi Ling takes half a year
We won't come out to cause trouble again, but we still don't know what else is waiting for us in the northern tribes. If there is a long delay there..."
Xuan Yue drawled her voice, her worry was self-evident.
"Don't worry! When there is no more resources in the inner magic bead, we will fly directly to the northern tribe."
Gu Zheng smiled slightly. How could he not think of what Xuan Yue was worried about? He just wanted to give Xuan Yue more experience at a time he thought was safe.
Hearing what Gu Zheng said, Xuan Yue was completely relieved, and her hands handled the ingredients more briskly.
"Disciple, how many dishes are you going to cook for me today?" Gu Zheng asked.
"Two side dishes and one big dish!" Xuan Yue said happily.
"Oh? What are the differences?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"Of the two side dishes, one uses the red Ganoderma lucidum that stumped my disciple as the main ingredient, the other is a stir-fry of two vegetarian dishes, and the main dish is the elk."
Xuan Yue blinked at Gu Zheng: "Master deliberately asked the disciple to catch the elk today, just because he wanted the disciple to cook it for dinner at night, right?"
"Disciple, you have only seen through half of my master's thoughts. As for the other half, I want to see how my disciple cooks that elk!" Gu Zheng said with a smile.
Xuan Yue rolled her eyes and then asked: "So in Master's opinion, what is the best way to cook that elk?"
"There is no best cooking method. I can only say that there are two better cooking methods. Since you want to cook that elk, you can first tell the teacher what method you want to use."
It seemed like a casual inquiry, but in fact Gu Zheng was also checking Xuan Yue's understanding of the ingredients, and Xuan Yue also liked this kind of check.
Xuan Yue is very talented in the way of eating. The greatest manifestation of this talent is in her understanding of ingredients! This is like a child with a talent for painting. Even if he has been exposed to painting for a short time, he can still draw like a model.
Decent, but on the other hand, those children who have no talent for painting, even if they have been exposed to painting for a while, the things they draw are still difficult to catch the eye.
She is relatively talented in the art of food, and has already been taught some knowledge of the art of food by Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng believes that it will not be difficult for Xuan Yue to find those two good ways to cook elk.
"Judging from the meat quality and fat content of the elk, the cooking method I want to use is roasting," Xuan Yue said.
Gu Zheng nodded: "Roasting is indeed one of the two good ways. So besides roasting, what other good methods can I come up with?"
"In my disciple's opinion, the second best cooking method after roasting is stewing, but stewing cannot remove the smell of meat very well, and more auxiliary ingredients are needed, because my disciple has no intention of using it.
This is the stew method, so I didn’t think much about how to stew elk meat!”
Xuan Yue frowned slightly. Now that the method of stewing was mentioned, she naturally thought deeply about things that she had not thought about deeply at first.
"The cooking method for this elk is to roast half of it and stew the other half!" Gu Zheng said.
Since Xuan Yue is allowed to practice, Gu Zheng naturally also wants her to be exposed to more things. A true fairy chef should not be good at roasting but not good at stewing. What's more, Gu Zheng feels that
As long as Xuan Yue pays attention and carefully observes the ingredients available today, she will definitely be able to find the supplementary ingredients that can perfectly remove the odor.
"good!"
Xuan Yue nodded, her eyes full of fighting spirit: "It's just that the time it takes for Master to eat elk meat will be extended, so the disciple can only make two side dishes for Master to taste first."
"It doesn't matter, you won't be late for a good meal!" Gu Zhengdan smiled.
Quietly watching Xuan Yue handle the ingredients, Gu Zheng silently remembered some of the improper handling in his mind. These so-called improper handling did not mean that Xuan Yue had spoiled the good ingredients, but that the ingredients were not properly handled.
There should be a better way of handling this.
A better way to deal with it is that Gu Zheng didn't tell Xuan Yue immediately because he didn't want to affect Xuan Yue's interest. No matter what he learns, it doesn't happen overnight. Some things can be said after eating elk meat. Moreover, even if Xuan Yue uses
It is not the best way to deal with it, but it is also increasing her experience in the way of eating.
You are not allowed to bring kitchen utensils in. The kitchen utensils Xuan Yue used today were basically made of stone or wood through her magic.
The ingredients for the two side dishes have been prepared, and the stone pot on the stove has been heated. Xuan Yue put a piece of yellow fat into the pot, and with the sound of "chichi lala", a kind of oil was more fragrant than sesame oil.
The fragrance also spreads.
Gu Zheng nodded secretly. The piece of yellow oil used by Xuan Yue was taken from a prey that looked like a pheasant. A total of six kinds of animal ingredients were caught today. For cooking red Ganoderma lucidum, the oil is
It is an indispensable thing, and among the six animal ingredients, pheasant oil is undoubtedly the most suitable.
The oil has been heated, and Xuan Yue puts the two auxiliary ingredients into the pot one after another and stir-fries. One of the two auxiliary ingredients is fungi, and the other is meat like snow clam.
The two ingredients in the pot are of high quality. Just a simple stir-fry has already made the aroma extremely rich, and it is only one step away from being extremely fragrant.
Ganoderma lucidum is basically as hard as wood, but if treated properly, it can become as soft as fungi.
Xuan Yue added a little water to the pot, and the two fried ingredients immediately turned the originally clean stream water into milky white. Xuan Yue put the red Ganoderma lucidum that had been processed long ago into the pot, covered the pot and started the control
For the water trick, she had to simmer the red Ganoderma lucidum slowly, letting the red Ganoderma lucidum absorb the soup that contains the flavors of the two ingredients.
It is said that it is simmered slowly, but this is just a relatively slow process. In fact, this process does not take long. After all, Xuan Yue can be regarded as an experienced chef.
Under the influence, the time to cook a dish naturally cannot be as time-consuming as that of ordinary chefs.
When the dish came out of the pot, as expected, it took on a very fragrant shape. Above the plate, a very fragrant red Ganoderma lucidum transformed from a tiny spore to the size of a real thing.
With the extremely fragrant transformation, the fragrance is naturally outstanding, and the color is also very appetizing. The fungi and snow clams are both white. The red Ganoderma lucidum that has absorbed the soup not only becomes brighter,
There is also a little bit of shimmering light on it, which looks very fairy-like.
"Master, how are you doing?"
Xuan Yue looked at Gu Zheng, like a child who wanted to hear praise.
"That's right, I can't tell you the color or aroma. As for the taste, I won't know until Master tastes it."
In fact, even if Gu Zheng didn't taste it, he knew that the taste of this dish was not bad, but in order to make Xuan Yue happier, he still tasted it very devotedly.
The fragrance fills Gu Zheng's mouth, and different taste experiences are also stimulating Gu Zheng's saliva. Now he is in the body of a monster, and although his sense of taste is the same as that of humans, for this delicious food that can take on a very fragrant form, his concentration is
It is inevitable that there will be some differences.
"It's really good! The fragrance of the fungus and the strong fragrance of the snow clam are all gathered in the red Ganoderma lucidum, which gives the red Ganoderma lucidum, which originally only had a monotonous medicinal aroma, a richer flavor! Moreover, the oil used for cooking is very suitable.
This gives the red Ganoderma a wonderful taste that almost melts in your mouth!”
Gu Zheng's serious comments made Xuan Yue almost fly with joy. After she briefly tasted her creation, she immediately threw herself into cooking the second side dish.
The second dish cooked by Xuan Yue uses two kinds of vegetarian ingredients. One is beige in color and the other is green in color. They look similar to fennel. Although they are two kinds of vegetarian ingredients.
Ingredients, but the quality of their ingredients are all high-grade. Even if it is a simple stir-fry, it will definitely appear in a very fragrant form!
The stir-fry took only a short time, and soon a very fragrant vegetarian dish appeared in front of Gu Zheng.
"This dish is not difficult to cook, so I don't need Master's comments!"
Xuan Yue stuck out her tongue at Gu Zheng. Of course she knew that with her knowledge of food, it would be difficult to cook dishes that Gu Zheng would truly praise. Gu Zheng's previous comments on her first dish were...
There is a lot of tolerance in it.
"Since disciple knows that this is not a dish that can be highly praised, why did disciple choose to cook this dish?" Gu Zheng asked with a smile.
