This is the first time they have heard of this cooking method.
In this era, the only cooking methods were steaming, boiling, and broiling, and the palace was no exception. There was no stir-fry. The main reason was that stir-fry required iron pots and oil, both of which were very scarce in this era.
something.
Therefore, due to the limitations of this era, stir-fried vegetables did not appear, and how could ordinary people afford stir-fried vegetables?
It's already very good if you have whole grains and boiled vegetables with salt.
Having enough food is the common people's greatest luxury, and there is no need to pay attention to quality.
Xiao Nan looked at Qin Yu and said blankly: "Brother-in-law, what kind of dish is that?"
Qin Yu muttered: "I can't explain it to you in a sentence or two. Just wait and see. Anyway, your Majesty will definitely not be able to find fault with it."
Xiao Nan nodded repeatedly, "What the brother-in-law said is that one of the brothers-in-law can stand up to the other two."
Afterwards, Qin Yu began to select ingredients.
Stir-fried vegetables didn't exist in this era, so Qin Yu didn't need to prepare complicated dishes, he only needed to make a few side dishes.
Not long after.
The selection of ingredients is completed.
Qin Yu rolled up his sleeves and started chopping vegetables.
Under the shocked gazes of Xiao Nan and Shen Binglan, Qin Yu showed his superb knife skills. Whether shredding or dicing, cutting into segments or slicing, he cut everything very evenly.
The two of them knew that Qin Yu had a lot of knowledge about eating, but they really didn't know that Qin Yu had such superb knife skills. It would be impossible for him to have such exquisite knife skills after just a few years of training.
Not to mention Xiao Nan and Shen Binglan, even the chefs in the imperial dining room had their eyes widened in disbelief.
"Sister...brother-in-law...you are really good at knife skills. Have you ever been a cook?"
Xiao Nan looked at Qin Yu in amazement.
Qin Yu raised his eyebrows lightly and said thoughtfully: "What's so difficult about this? Can't you just read it once?"
Xiao Nan: "..."
Shen Binglan: "..."
Not long after.
The raw materials are fully prepared.
Qin Yu started to light the fire, and then brought over a large iron pot from the imperial dining room. This pot was very large and was used for cooking.
But now Qin Yu didn't have anywhere to get an iron pot, so he simply took out the big iron pot and made do with it.
Qin Yu looked aside and called softly: "General Manager Zhou."
Zhou Quan, the chief manager of the imperial study, hurried over and said, "Prince-in-law, please give me your orders."
Qin Yu said calmly: "Today my master is going to make stir-fried vegetables. You should learn how to order them. You will be the ones preparing dinner in three days."
Zhou Quan nodded in response, "I understand, my consort, please do."
As the chief manager of the imperial kitchen, he still has some confidence.
Then Qin Yu started to take action, heating the oil in a pot, pouring the diced chicken into the hot oil...
Qin Yu skillfully added the raw materials.
All the royal chefs in the imperial dining room gathered around, with three floors inside and three floors outside.
Zhou Quan stared with wide eyes, fearing that he might misremember every step.
moment.
After stir-frying over high heat, a simple version of Kung Pao Chicken came out of the pot. The aroma was overflowing and made everyone in the room salivate.
The reason why it is said to be a simplified version is because the raw materials of Dawei are really not too few.
There are no peppers or peanuts, which makes the Kung Pao Chicken dish lose its soul, but it doesn’t matter, people in this era have never even seen stir-fry dishes.
Therefore, there will definitely be no faults found in anything Qin Yu makes.
After one dish was ready, Qin Yu continued with the second dish, the third dish...
All the imperial chefs around looked at Qin Yu's operation attentively, and they were all dumbfounded.
Not only did the Prince Consort come up with an unprecedented way of cooking, but he also cooked very skillfully.
Last month, the Prince Consort was still fighting in the Zaala Grassland and defeated Wuluo.
Now I'm cooking in the imperial dining room, this damn guy is as good at the battlefield as he is at the kitchen.
Not long after.
Kung pao chicken, braised lion head, fried lamb with green onions, scrambled eggs with leeks, sweet and sour carp and mapo tofu are ready.
Six dishes that are very homely, but indeed six dishes that are unprecedented in this era.
Although this thing seems very ordinary to Qin Yu.
But in the eyes of Xiao Nan, Zhou Quan and other imperial chefs, it was very, very rare.
Qin Yu clapped his hands and said calmly: "Okay, the dishes are all here. These six dishes will be enough for the dinner day."
Xiao Nan couldn't help but feel his throat rolling as he looked at the six dishes, and moved his index finger. "Sister...brother-in-law, are you too awesome? Can I try it?"
Zhou Quan's eyes widened and he hurriedly said: "Prince-in-law, I have to taste it even in my humble position. Later... I will do it later so I can know what it tastes like!"
Qin Yu said calmly: "No problem, you can try it."
The words just fell.
Xiao Nan raised his big hand, "Wait a minute! All of you, wait a minute!"
After listening to Xiao Nan's words, Zhou Quan and the other royal chefs around him did not dare to move.
Then Xiao Nan took out six plates, divided each dish into one portion, and put it aside.
Zhou Quan and the other imperial chefs just stared at Xiao Nan in a daze, not daring to move.
After Xiao Nan finished his work, he said calmly: "You can move now."
Then, all the royal chefs rushed towards the remaining six dishes like crazy.
Zhou Quan hurriedly came out to stop him, "Don't fucking move, I'll divide it!"
At this time, Zhou Quan broke out in a cold sweat.
If these red-eyed hungry wolves were allowed to come forward, they would probably even eat the plate.
After a while, after all the dishes were carefully divided, the royal chefs began to taste it. They were all very surprised and full of praise.
"I'm convinced. This time I'm really convinced by the prince-in-law. Forget about his literary skills and military skills, he even has such experience in cooking, and it's an unprecedented cooking method!"
"It's delicious. It's so delicious. I'm worthy of being a prince-in-law. He's good at governing the country and the people, and he can also cook delicious food. It really makes us ashamed!"
"Stir-fried vegetables... why have you said that no one has ever researched it? Just stir-fry leeks and eggs together, it has a unique taste, and this Kung Pao Chicken is simply amazing!"
.......
All the royal chefs sighed while eating.
Zhou Quan couldn't help but clicked his tongue, "You are truly worthy of being a prince-in-law. I really can't refuse to accept it."
Qin Yu, Xiao Nan and Shen Binglan gathered around a table.
Xiao Nan had already taken the chopsticks and the steamed buns in his hands. He was smacking his lips and salivating, "Brother-in-law, I... I'm going to start!"
Xiao Nan really didn't want to do this, but these dishes made by Qin Yu were really too tempting.
Qin Yu nodded slightly, "Eat, there are no outsiders."
As he said that, he looked at Shen Binglan and muttered: "Miss Shen, you also want to try my master's craftsmanship."
Shen Binglan raised her eyebrows slightly, nodded slightly, then picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of fish.
Xiao Nan was naturally not polite and had already begun to enjoy the meal.
