It may be hard to imagine that a place like Sengen Shrine actually has a neat and complete kitchen.
In fact, it is not difficult to understand that practicing such a difficult sport requires very precise nutritional supplements and even uses some ingredients that are rare outside.
It is not enough to rely on outsiders to do the cooking. Sengen Shrine also needs to do part of the cooking itself.
Therefore, the interior of Asama Shrine, which looks almost insulated from modernity on the outside, is a place with complete equipment and a modern atmosphere.
It was also the place where Zhao Youqian walked through the Senjian Shrine and came to it under the guidance of the priest...
Seeing the neat and clean kitchen, Zhao Youqian nodded with satisfaction and asked the priest to take him to where the ingredients were stored.
Then he paused.
'Why did you forget to ask, what does the statue of Huang Quan in the village represent...'
'Forget it, let's wake up Huang Quan first.'
He quickly gave up this idea, and Zhao Youqian's footsteps did not attract the attention of the priest leading the way.
"Master Yugan, this is where the ingredients are stored in the shrine. If you need other special ingredients, you can ask us and they will be brought soon."
After nodding his head, the priest wisely left. The rest of the time was spent waiting to see what kind of dishes this famous Yaozhou genius could cook.
To awaken Isayama Huangquan, the type of cuisine has already been determined.
Medicinal food!
But what formula of medicinal diet should be used, this requires Zhao Youqian to think carefully.
Don't use flavors that are too exciting, because the energy in Isayama Yomi's body is very strong but not stable. Once it is stimulated, it may cause unknown changes.
But you can't use ingredients that are too mild. The energy of those ingredients cannot withstand the violent fluctuations of the killing stone's spiritual power.
Therefore, the several original herbal dishes he originally mastered could not be used.
But he has some ideas about the ingredients...
Starting from the world of one person, there have never been many opportunities to use dream ingredients!
‘Huainan Tofu’!
...
"Tofu is the main ingredient and is mild enough, but tofu alone cannot awaken Huangquan..."
"Balance...Balance!?"
Zhao Youqian took out the ingredients he needed in the kitchen, and then redeemed two pieces of Huainan tofu from the Gourmet System.
Like a mirror-like tofu body, one black and one white appeared in front of Zhao Youqian.
The shimmering Huainan tofu is marinated with herbal liquid. Zhao Youqian has learned all the cooking methods, but the temporary production time takes too long, so he can only exchange it directly with points.
Then he took out many materials from the warehouse of Sengen Shrine, especially some medicinal materials.
What he wants to make is Yaozhou cuisine, which is the best special dish in terms of balance.
Yin Yang Tai Chi Soup!
What’s special about this Yaozhou cuisine is not the taste, but the fusion and balance of taste.
It is just suitable for Isayama Huangquan's physical condition at this time, and the most important thing is that this is a nourishing medicinal diet.
The balanced power of yin and yang happens not to be too strong, nor is it easily destroyed by the violent spiritual power of the killing stone, unable to nourish Isayama Yomi's body and spirit.
I saw Zhao Youqian put the Huainan tofu aside first, and the first thing he had to prepare was the stock for Isayama Huangquan.
Since we are making soup, soup is definitely indispensable.
The soup stock in Sengen Shrine is not bad, Zhao Youqian could tell just by smelling it.
Unfortunately, this does not mean that he can use it directly.
"Fortunately, there are these ingredients in the warehouse, otherwise it would have been delayed a lot of time..."
Looking at the ingredients he took out from the shrine, Zhao Youqian nodded slightly.
Especially that jet-black guy, it is an extremely expensive ingredient that is rarely raised in Yaozhou!
Black-feathered Silky Chicken!
Generally, the silky chickens that can be seen on the market are actually white-feathered black-bone chickens. White-feathered black-bone chickens are easier to raise and have a strong nourishing effect, especially for women. The stewed chicken soup can nourish yin. It is a good product to replenish yang, especially if you are suffering from physical fatigue or during the period of confinement.
However, the white-feathered black-bone chicken is not entirely black. Only part of the internal fascia and organs are dark.
Of course, the taste is slightly worse than the real black-feathered silky chicken known as "five black and one green".
This inconspicuous thing also determines the difference in worth between the two.
In the past, the black-feathered silky chicken was a 'tribute chicken' reserved exclusively for the royal family. It was very difficult to raise, as can be seen from the fact that several farmers who raised this kind of silky chicken died from mental and physical exhaustion in ancient times.
Now that we have entered a modern society, we have a better understanding of this kind of chicken, and we have more scientific and planned breeding. However, we cannot completely replace manual breeding with machines.
This makes the cost of this kind of black-feathered silky chicken more than ten times higher than that of ordinary white-feathered silky chicken.
Of course, its nutritional value and taste are also higher than those of white-feathered black-bone chicken, but if it is simply stewed for nourishment, the difference is not so obvious.
The black-feathered black-bone chicken is also known as "five black and one green".
The five blacks are black hair, black skin, black meat, black bones, and the internal organs are also black.
Yilu is talking about the eggs laid by this kind of chicken, which have green shells.
Even in Yaozhou, the production of this kind of black-feathered silky chicken is limited. Zhao Youqian did not expect that there are always spares in Asama Shrine. This also shows that the effort that Asama Shrine spends on training its students is indeed all In an invisible place.
"This is a great advantage for me!"
"Otherwise, if you really want to find silky chicken, you may have to use white-feathered silky chicken instead, and you won't be as sure as you are now!"
The first time he really tried his best to cook after entering Linchu, Zhao Youqian didn't expect that he would actually use it for medicinal food. This happened to be a kind of challenge test for him.
Naturally, he wants to do it as perfectly as possible.
Outside the kitchen, Tsuchimiya Kagura had also rushed over. Knowing that Zhao Youqian was making dishes to wake up her sister, she was a little worried.
At this time, I saw Zhao Youqian thinking in front of the ingredients, and I couldn't help but feel a little worried.
However, she knew that she could not disturb Zhao Youqian's thinking at this time, so she did not make a sound, and even lowered her breathing.
Ignoring Tsuchimiya Kagura who came to the door of the kitchen, Zhao Youqian looked at the black-feathered black-bone chicken that had been processed in front of him, and started rubbing various parts of the chicken.
Chicken that has been completely processed does not require special blanching or anything.
Zhao Youqian simply boiled a pot of water and put the silky chicken in after rubbing and even breaking the fine bones in the body.
Adding cold water to the pot is not only to remove the impurities from the silky chicken, but more importantly, to release all the flavor and nourishing energy of the silky chicken into the soup!
