Chapter 293 The First Datang Food Culture Festival (2)
When Li Er arrived, or the first paragraph, it was over here, and it was noon, and it was lunch time. People were drinking wine, so they started to grab mutton, eat porridge, or minced meat, and even one morning passed.
Yang Heng looked at everyone's faces and said it was pretty good. Everyone was quite satisfied with this arrangement. Although the food was very simple, it was also very distinctive and even made people think deeply.
"Come on, learn literature and tell me why you want to hold such an activity?" That, I should say, did you ask me knowingly, pretending to be confused, but Yang Heng naturally didn't dare to ask, and he had to answer it well.
"Back to Your Majesty, isn't this a matter of rushing to get things done? Several shareholders want to compete in cooking and delicious food, so it's better to hold such a delicious food party, so I hurriedly prepared."
"Well, it's not bad, it's just my intention. I'll promote the food culture of the Tang Dynasty and show the beauty of the Tang Dynasty. Is there anything next?" It seems that Li Er is concerned about this matter. Don't just come, it's over. Of course, Yang Heng doesn't want to end so soon. The real food is the one below. In the morning, that's just the history of food development.

"Tea, for us in China, is a new type of drink. Tea was originally used as a medicinal material. According to legend, "Shennong tastes hundreds of herbs, encounters 72 poisons a day, and gets tea and relieves it." And tea was officially used as a drink in the previous dynasty." After seeing everyone eat, Yang Heng came to the front and started the afternoon program. Natural history passed, and that was enjoyment. A group of maids had already arrived at the scene. They brought three kinds of tea sets to everyone.
"Everyone, it's time to have leisure time, let's drink tea first. There are three kinds of tea here, one is the brewed tea that I have specialty here, one is the tea bricks of ordinary tea, and the other is the five-flavored tea. You each can choose the tea you like to drink."
Yang Heng chose three most popular ways to drink tea now, five flavors of tea. It is a way of drinking tea that some literati or philosophers like. They like the flavors of this tea. It is a way of drinking tea. It is a good choice for money, but it is a good flavor. They can even tell hundreds of ways of changing it. I don’t know if they can really drink it or show off. It seems that if they don’t drink it like this, it seems that they are not knowledgeable. Their way to drink it is to cook it slowly by themselves. Slowly add salt, ginger, animal fat, and even some other seasonings.
The one with the widest choice is naturally Yang Heng’s tea making here. They like the posture of the maid pouring tea, which is like dancing, which makes it pleasing to the eye. There is even a meaning of drinking tea and appreciating beauty.
There is also a way to drink tea with the least choice, which is also to make tea. It is to make tea without any seasonings. It is to throw the tea bricks into the pot and then drink them in a large bowl. This seems rough and this is considered a beast-like way to drink tea. However, Yang Heng found that those who drink tea like this usually like Yang Heng’s tea. It seems that they are also showing off, showing that they are generals.
Since there is tea, there will naturally be refreshments, which is one of the delicacies. Yang Heng did not serve watermelon seeds or winter melon seeds as usual, but instead brought some special snacks, just for viewing, not for eating.
At this time, the dim sum is called fruit, and it is also made by the chefs on site. People are drinking tea and chatting while commenting on the chefs' skills in making dim sum fruits, and even the style of the fruit.
The so-called dessert fruits are naturally not the desserts made by Yang Heng, but some traditional desserts, such as Qibian cake, Crystal Dragon and Phoenix cake, and other pastries.
Not long after, the chefs made dozens of pastries and fruits and brought them to the guests one by one. However, this was just for viewing, but no one would eat it. Why? I just had a full meal, so where would there be a place to eat these pastries? Besides, most people in it don’t eat three meals, so I won’t be hungry at this time.
In order to hurry, when the pastry chefs retreated, the venue in front of them immediately turned into a large kitchen for cooking, and many chefs once again played their skills.
When cooking and frying, the chefs used all eighteen martial arts. This time it was the most pleasing cooking display. The ones displayed before were art, and the ones displayed at this time were real cooking.
Why do you say that? If this is an exam, the sashimi, roasted whole lamb, and even cooking porridge and minced meat are all common subjects and basic subjects. Even if it is pastry, it is still a basic subject. Although it is different, the taste is basically the same. The only difference is various fancy styles. But this cooking is considered to be their real cooking skills. This, they have their own unique tricks. They have to test their knife skills, seasoning, and even speed. It is not something that people visit. Of course, they must have a tray style in the end. This is also an important project. If it is a mess, it will not be on the big mat, right?
"Removing the tea and serving the dishes, the chefs will introduce their own dishes." Why do you do this? Because Yang Heng didn't know some dishes, and he had never even eaten them, so naturally he had to introduce them by himself. He didn't want to be ugly.
"I'm the real fish sashimi." The first one came up was a chef who had no knife. At first, Yang Heng saw him carrying a live fish. Yang Heng thought he wanted to make dishes such as sweet and sour live fish. He said this. When he looked at the other chefs, they even nodded. It seemed that this chef should be a famous chef, or wanted to give Yang Heng a look. However, after thinking about it, it was not the same. If he was demonstrating, wouldn't he directly reject the chefs who sashimi in front of him?
But when he used his knife, Yang Heng truly understood his words, this is the real fish sashimi. Yes, this is the real fish sashimi. Usually people eat fish sashimi in winter, that is, cut frozen fish. How can he say that, he can use a poem by Lao Du to describe "Jiang Hou sets a stiletto as the severe winter, yesterday and today are all windy. The river frozen fish is not easy to get, and chiseling ice may invade the Hebo Palace. The sashimi is handed by the fish mermaids, and the fish is sharpened by the sword. The fish are red in the eyes. Silently falling down the snow..." Yang Heng felt that Only Lao Du's poem can describe the chef in front of him. Even the stinger fish is a pleasing thing. Even the guests on the spot also knew this dish very well. Another thing is that everyone actually liked to drink strong wine and eat fish sashimi. Yang Heng also curiously put a piece of fish sashimi in his mouth. It was very fresh, really fresh, and there was not even a fishy smell. It seems that live stinger fish and frozen stinger fish are different, and there is also some secret recipe for this person, but how can there be a smell of wine in it?
"You are?" "Mr. Concubine, I'm sorry, this fish sashimi is a way to eat it by borrowing your spirits." The one understood. It turned out that he had treated the fish with wine, and he had to ensure that the fish was alive. This was an innovation. Yang Heng found that all the guests present seemed to have eaten this kind of food, but why did he not eat it? Ah, by the way, Yang Heng had not attended any banquet at anyone's house. This fish sashimi directly suppressed the other chefs, and it turned out to be the leader.
Next, although they all have their own characteristics, there is no more flavor than fish sashimi, such as fish soup, shrimp soup, camel hoof soup, etc., as well as various vegetarian dishes, and even various fried meats, which are not more than this dish. However, Yang Heng did not like this sashimi dish very much. Why? He was still worried about the problem of getting sick. You should know that in ancient times, some people got sick by eating fish sashimi and various sashimi meats. These raw foods
There are still some pathogenic bacteria or parasites on their bodies, and Yang Heng, the fish sashimi in front, was just to create the atmosphere. This dish was something he didn't expect. Otherwise, Yang Heng would cancel the dish directly. Besides, the only thing about this dish is the knife skills and nothing else, and the only thing is that the chef used the spirits brewed by Yang Heng, which is not surprising. But this is not a competition. If it is a competition, Yang Heng will give him the lowest score. (To be continued...)
