The history of the struggle of the God of the Stove

Chapter 301
Among these fairy ingredients, Qi Yuan valued the blood eel the most.

When he was in East China Sea before, he cooked ingredients such as fish, shrimp and crab many times, and even fish demons at the level of demons and immortals had cooked them more than once.

So although he also likes the golden-scaled dragon fish and the big blue-shell crab very much, the blood eel, an ingredient that he has never cooked before, can improve his spiritual cooking skills even more.

As for the old loach, relatively speaking, it is the ingredient that Qi Yuan does not pay much attention to.

I don't know what specific skills this old loach practiced. Even though he has become a demon, there is still a strong earthy smell in his body. It takes a lot of effort and a lot of spirit wine to deal with it.

Moreover, because the old loach has a huge body, the bones in the body are thick and compact, but there is not much meat on its body, so it takes him more thought to cook.

Compared with the old loach, that blood eel is much better.

Although there are some similarities in shape between the two, the blood eel is weak and boneless, without thorns, and the blood in the body has a faint fragrance, as if it has been fed with elixir for many years. .

Qi Yuan was overjoyed at the first sight.

This is the real good food, it is more nourishing to the body, and the meat quality is also excellent, after making it, the taste will definitely be much stronger than that old loach.

Instead, he thought of a trick of Han Palace Zangjiao, loach drilling tofu, but unfortunately there was no such big tofu to match this loach, so he had to give up.

Qi Yuan cleaned up the loach, blue crab, blood eel and other ingredients and put them aside to marinate, and then used the golden scale dragon fish to cook first.

This big carp is more than 30 feet long and wide, second only to the big blue-shelled crab.

Qi Yuanji held up the kitchen knife in his hand, and the light of the knife rotated, flying to scrape off the golden scales on the fish. At the same time, he did not forget to give advice to Qi Yi, how to deal with such a big fish that has become a fairy, and how to scrape off the scales with less effort. Scales, how to use a knife to break open the belly of the fish and take out the internal organs and other things inside.

After cleaning, swish, swish and swish a few knives, and cut the fish obliquely.

Then, he transformed into a big hand of real essence with mana, lifted the tail of the fish, put the prepared spirit wine, scallion, ginger, seasoning, and salt into it to marinate for a while, and made flour, egg liquid, etc. into a paste, and evenly Apply on golden carp.

Then, using the true essence as a guide, after stimulating the dragon blood in the golden carp, the oil in the pot was heated to [-]% hot, and then with the big hand of vitality, the fish tail was lifted, and the golden carp, which was tens of feet in size, was lifted. The carp is put into the Ruyi pot with dragon patterns that looks only two feet in size.

Now, with the growth of his Taoism, the Dragon Pattern Ruyi Pot has been sacrificed by him to become more and more powerful, and it is more convenient to use.

It is no longer necessary to make the pot bigger as before. Now just put this fish in it. With the space inside the dragon pattern pot, let alone such a carp with a size of tens of feet, even a dragon with a length of thousands of feet Whales can still fit.

After frying the fish on both sides until slightly yellow and the fish meat is fully cooked, take it out first, put it outside to dry for a while, then return it to the pot and fry it on a low heat for a second time, until the whole body is deep yellow, Qi Yuan just Scoop it out, tail up, into a plate.

Then leave a little oil in the pot, first sauté minced garlic until fragrant, then add shredded ginger, sugar, vinegar and other seasonings, then add various elixir, and blend the medicinal power of elixir into sweet and sour sauce, wait for the soup When the juice becomes thick, pour the boiling oil into the pot, sprinkle with scallions, pour sesame oil, and pour the sweet and sour sauce on the fried fish.

Originally, the aura in this golden carp's body had been sealed inside the fish by Qi Yuan's spirit-sealing spell, and even its thin dragon blood was not revealed at all.

So when the fish was taken out of the oil pan earlier, not to mention any abnormalities, even the aroma did not escape.

But the moment the sweet and sour sauce was poured, the aura of the elixir in the soup hooked up with the aura in the golden carp's body, triggering a chain reaction. The mixture of the two auras formed a carp jumping over the dragon's gate above the plate. phantom.

At the same time, an extremely alluring sweet and sour aroma wafted out from afar.

It's just that there was too much commotion during the previous battle, which not only scared away the fish and shrimps in the Guanjiangkou River, but also all the birds and animals in the nearby forests. came back.

So this time when Qi Yuan was cooking, he didn't encounter any unsightly things to grab food.

Princess Longji smelled the aroma coming from ahead, and a desire to eat that she had never felt before rose up in her belly, which surprised her very much.

You must know that she is born with a Taoist body, and she grew up in an environment full of aura such as Heavenly Court. She has been used to meditating and refining Qi since she was a child. belly, but to increase the cultivation base.

So, she has never experienced the taste of hunger until now, but now she just smells the smell of Qi Yuan's dish, and she... feels hungry? !

This shocked Longji.

She didn't know how far Qi Yuan's dish could make a fairy like her, who was born with a Taoist body, feel this way.

Looking at the phantom of the carp jumping over the dragon gate on the dish, I was even more surprised.

You must know that even many immortals may not necessarily have visions when refining elixirs, but Qi Yuan only cooks one dish, and the visions on this dish will not disappear for a long time.

This... really made her unheard and unseen.

In fact, the main reason why this dish caused her such a strong reaction was because the ingredients were good enough.

Otherwise, if Qi Yuan is asked to cook with ordinary monster ingredients, although the difference in taste may not be too much, it will definitely not cause such a strong reaction from a peak fairy like Princess Longji.

Princess Longji couldn't help but took two steps forward, came closer, and looked at the dish carefully, but it turned out that because the distance was too close, this sweet and sour fragrance was so tempting that she Couldn't help but swallowed his saliva.

"Ha ha……"

Qi Yuan chuckled: "I still have a few dishes to deal with. If the princess is hungry, it doesn't matter if you try it first."

Long Ji blushed and shook her head quickly: "I'm just a little curious. Fellow Daoist is really good at it. I never imagined that a mere dish can produce such a tempting taste."

"The princess is overrated."

Qi Yuan smiled modestly: "It's just some cooking skills. After all, it's a means of assisting cultivation, and it's nothing."

"Brother Dao, you don't have to be humble."

Princess Longji asked curiously: "What is the name of this dish?"

"Sweet and sour carp."

Qi Yuan said: "I mobilized the thin dragon blood in that golden carp, combined with elixir such as dragon grass, meditation lotus, soul washing flower, etc., to connect the aura and blood power in the fish, and this is how it will be. Wait for the vision to arise."

Long Ji nodded and didn't bother Qi Yuan anymore, but stood aside and continued to watch Qi Yuan cook.

She is very curious about whether there will be visions in the next few dishes.

Qi Yuan's next dish is stir-fried crab with ginger and spring onion.

Originally, he wanted to make a different way, after all, he had cooked this dish for Yunhua and others when he first came to Guanjiangkou some time ago.

However, when the big crab with the green shell was dying, it was dismembered by Yang Jian and Long Ji, and it didn't look good when steamed in bits and pieces, so Qi Yuan simply gave it a few more knives, and directly Something went wrong with the pan frying.

Although they are also stir-fried crabs with ginger and scallions, this time the ingredients are better, and the taste is different from last time, which is enough to satisfy everyone.

Then Qi Yuan started to clean up the big loach.

When soaking this big loach earlier, he had shaken it with mana, allowing the smell of spirit wine and seasonings to soak into the loach's body. At this time, there was almost no smell of earth.

But after all, the marinating time is not long enough, and it is not like ordinary small loach that can be poured with water, so Qi Yuan decided to make this loach by stir-frying.

Not only will the taste be better, but it can also completely cover up any residual earthy smell.

After putting the oil in the pot and heating it up to [-]% heat, Qi Yuan waved a mana to remove the onion and ginger used to marinate the loach, put the cut loach into the pot, deep fry until golden and remove it for later use.

Then put oil in another hot pan, add shredded ginger, minced garlic, and spicy Polygonum in turn, add a little salt and stir-fry to release the aroma.

Then put the fried loach into the pot, add seasoning, add some spirit wine and sauce, and stir-fry.

After a while, the little soup inside had been boiled dry and turned greasy. Qi Yuan reckoned the heat, and after stir frying a few times, he directly got out of the wok and put it on a plate, and a plate of delicious stir-fried loach was ready. .

Finally, Qi Yuan brought the blood eel to prepare the stew.

The blood eel has been cleaned and cut into small pieces by him before, and after a period of marinating, it has already tasted. After thickening, fry it for a while, remove it and drain the oil.

The reason why these eel segments are put into the oil pan for a little frying is mainly to increase the toughness of the eel skin.

In this way, the skin will not be broken during stewing, and the meat will not be easily boiled, and the stewed soup will be white and thick, and the color and taste will be richer and more delicious.

Then sauté the onion and ginger until fragrant, add spirit mushrooms, eel segments, spirit wine and other seasonings, pour in the broth, and after boiling, Qi Yuan adds a spirit ginseng that is old enough, and mixes it with some angelica, astragalus, and ganoderma , Longan, Lingzao, etc., began to simmer slowly with low heat.

During this period, while watching the fire in the dragon pattern pot, he played a few formulas from time to time to reconcile the aura inside, and at the same time asked Qi Yi to set up a pot beside him, and ordered him to cook some other dishes.

It's not that he can't do it himself, but that he deliberately let Qi Yi show his face in front of Yang Jian, Longji and others, so as to accumulate contacts for him, so that if there is anything in the future, he can also come to him.

In any case, these few people have eaten the dishes made by Qi Yi himself, and they are also their juniors. If they really want to ask for something, they are too embarrassed not to help.

Qi Yi's movements are also very nimble. He has been learning cooking from his master for some years. After making all kinds of spiritual meals, both the taste and the effect are quite good.

Even though the mana in his body is less able to control the temperature of the heat because he doesn't have a spirit companion, it cannot be denied that the dishes he made are still delicious.

After Qi Yi had finished more than ten dishes, Qi Yuan's eel soup was already stewed.

Open the lid of the pot, amidst the rising steam, faint figures of eels shuttled back and forth, until the heat dissipated, and then gradually disappeared.

At this time, Yang Jian had already returned, and those big monsters followed his orders to join hands to subdue many monster soldiers from the water tribe, and he didn't need to follow them personally.

Everyone sat down in the bamboo building, Qi Yi led Deng Chanyu and others, brought up various dishes and arranged them, and immediately the bamboo building was filled with all kinds of tempting aromas.

He Ling'er smelled the fragrance, looked at the delicious food in front of her, and couldn't help salivating from her small mouth.

It's just that everyone hasn't started. Although she is a bit greedy, she doesn't dare to break the rules, so she bites her fingers and stares at the plates of delicious food in front of her, drooling.

Qi Yuan pretended not to see, he coughed lightly, took out a jug of spiritual wine, tilted the jug slightly, immediately dispensed several liquids, filled the wine glasses in front of him, and distributed them to everyone.

Then raised his cup and said: "Today's battle not only killed those evil demon kings, but also subdued many aquatic demon soldiers.

From now on, with Erlang sitting here, it is expected that there will never be any monsters from the aquatic tribe who dare to set off floods to submerge the village. This is the blessing of the people.

If Erlang benefits one party, he will also have meritorious deeds, which is worth celebrating. Come, let me drink this cup to the brim. "

Everyone nodded in praise, especially Yang Jian, who was even more happy.

Protecting the people of one side will indeed allow him to gain some humane merits. Although it is far less than Qi Yuan's level of directly inducing the way of heaven, it is still much better than nothing.

What's more, in today's battle, all the demon kings in the Guanjiangkou waters were beheaded. Even if there are three or two demon immortals in the deep mountains, it is no longer a cause for concern.

After drinking for three rounds, everyone stopped being polite, but chatted while eating.

After all, most of the people here are women, and they don't like to drink alcohol very much. Relatively speaking, these tasty and delicious food are more attractive to them.

Especially Princess Longji, this is the first time she has eaten such a delicacy.

The first thing she looked at was the sweet and sour carp that Qi Yuan made at the beginning.

After all, when this fish was just cooked, even she felt a strong desire to eat with the smell that came out of it. Now that it was placed in front of her, of course she wanted to taste this dish first. smell.

Long Ji gently picked up a piece of fish, and after putting it in his mouth, he immediately felt a salty, sour and sweet taste erupting in his mouth.

After chewing it lightly for a couple of times, I felt that the meat was tender, smooth, refreshing, delicious, and after eating it, a strong and pure aura rose in my stomach.

At the same time, there was a mysterious aura rushing straight to the sea of ​​consciousness, as if there was a faint dragon chant, which made her soul feel clear for a while.

Then she actually felt that the barrier that had been stuck so hard that she couldn't advance to Taiyi Xuanxian faintly loosened a bit.

This is a sign that the cultivation base is about to break through.

After discovering this sign, Longji was really surprised and delighted.

Only now did she truly understand why Qi Yuan was able to gain merit with this cooking skill.

Of course, not all dishes have this effect.

That is to say, this carp originally had the blood of the dragon clan, and Qi Yuan specially stimulated its blood, and combined with the elixir such as Jingxin lotus and soul washing flower, this formed the phantom of the previous carp leaping over the dragon gate.

The reason why carp jump over the dragon gate is because they are a sign of the dragon.

In this dish, after Qi Yuan specially added those elixir with the blood of the dragon clan, this dish has the function of helping people break through the barrier, which has the same effect as the barrier-breaking pill in the elixir.

Therefore, Princess Longji will show signs of breaking the mirror.

However, that one bite of fish meat alone was obviously not enough for her to break through the realm, so she ate a few more bites one after another.

However, although the fish meat in the next few mouthfuls was still delicious and full of spiritual energy, the feeling of breaking through the realm brought to her was getting weaker and weaker.

Long Ji slightly frowned his delicate brows. Could it be that the opportunity for this breakthrough is going to disappear just like that?
Since the last time she forcibly broke free from the spell that confuses the primordial spirit in Xiqi, although her primordial spirit was damaged, but after returning to Qingluan Douque on Phoenix Mountain, she has been cultivating for such a long time, and her injuries above the primordial spirit It has already been restored to its original state, and at the same time, her realm has been further consolidated, and her mana has accumulated sufficiently vigorously.

And now that the catastrophe has passed, there is no trace of catastrophe lingering in her body, and she has truly reached the peak state of the heavenly realm, but she still lacks a little opportunity to break through.

It was rare to feel that kind of opportunity just now. If I can't take the opportunity to break through, I'm afraid I don't know how many years I have to wait.

Yunhua sensed Long Ji's breath fluctuations, and when he turned his head, he immediately saw Long Ji's current situation, and couldn't help but froze for a moment.

Immediately after realizing it, she handed the bowl of soup in front of Longji to Longji, and said with a smile, "Come on, how about this bowl of soup?"

"Thank you auntie."

Long Ji took the small jasper bowl with both hands, gently picked up the spoon, scooped up a spoonful of white and thick eel soup and drank it.

Then, I only felt an extremely gentle force began to nourish my body, and that feeling of breaking through the realm came again.

Moreover, it is stronger than before.

"what?"

Long Ji looked at the bowl of thick white eel soup in his hand in surprise.

This is the soup that she saw Qi Yuan make with blood eel, but she did not expect that the effect of this bowl of soup is stronger than that of sweet and sour carp.

"Ha ha."

Qi Yuan chuckled and said, "I call this soup Shangyu Ruoshui.

Water is good for all things and does not compete. Although this blood eel is not as good as water, the qi, blood and aura in its body are extremely nourishing. I added elixir to neutralize the aura. In terms of nourishing the body, it is worthy Called miraculous. "
