Cao Cao's chef

Chapter 347
The banquet for hundreds of people was held directly on the square leading to the main hall. The seats were arranged according to everyone's status and age, two rows on the left and two on the left.It doesn't need to be too long.

Liu Xieduan sat in the first seat, and San Gong sat in the second seat. Tonight, the three of them were responsible for helping Liu Xie entertain the guests. The three of them couldn't sit down until the guests were seated.

The elders of the clan sit in the upper seat on the left, and even the vassal king can only obediently accompany the upper seat on the right.Han respects Confucianism, Confucianism is headed by filial piety, and it is agreed to be a family banquet tonight, how can we not take those elders seriously because of their different status? !
"Hey, I'm in the last seat?" Liu Bei was a little depressed, how could he be in the last seat area.

"No way, the seat has been prepared, but I didn't expect..." Lu Zhi looked at Liu Bei with a little deep meaning, and she didn't expect that this disciple was so lucky that he was recognized as a relative by His Majesty.

In this way, they can be regarded as serious royal family members, but the problem is that they have already determined the positions of everyone last night, and suddenly there is another Liu Bei coming out today, and they don't know how to arrange it.

"Would you like to come up and sit with me?" Cao Cao suddenly appeared next to the two of them and offered an invitation to Liu Bei.

"This... let's forget it..." Liu Bei was a little moved, but he was still embarrassed to go up after thinking of being watched by so many people.Besides, if you want to go up, you will probably be sitting with Lu Zhi. Didn't you see that she is looking a little unhappy at the moment?
"I heard that Xu Du moved here around April this year, and the original imperial chefs were all detained in Chang'an by Li Jue and Guo Si. The current imperial chef team has not even been assembled yet, and the position of head chef has been vacant..." Pei Wang Liu Yao , chatting softly with Pengcheng King Liu He beside him.

"There is already a royal chef, and it is relatively easy to hire senior chefs. But I heard that the leader is a little girl who is a mid-level chef..." Liu He replied in a low voice.

"However, I also heard that she is the granddaughter of the former imperial chef Yang Ci, and it is said that Yang Xiu already has the level of a senior chef, but there is no reference yet." Liu Yao said.

"The problem is..." the seat next to him was Beihai King Liu Yan, "I heard that tonight's chef was dispatched from the Sikong Mansion, and he was appointed by His Majesty!"

"Who has such a great honor?" Liu Yao was a little surprised.

"He is a middle-level chef. It is rumored that he has reached the threshold of a special chef, but he has not had time to accept the assessment. He was discovered by Cao Sikong last year and then joined him. It is said that he has a good relationship with His Majesty in private. However, this person's character is not good. Not so good, I just married four wives... No, it should be three wives and one concubine!" Liu Yan said in a low voice.

"This is really jealous...cough...a scumbag that makes people hate!" Liu He said indignantly, how many men hope to marry a few women back in a fair manner.The problem is that there are too few women, and they are so good, and they are so weak, and most of the time they just think about it.

"If it wasn't for Cao Sikong's protection, I'm afraid this person would have been beaten to death in the marketplace long ago..." Liu Yao laughed.

"Such a person, even if he has good craftsmanship, what can he do?" The other two also responded one after another.

Speaking of which, the guests have already entered the table one after another, and seeing that there is no problem, the three men have also returned to their seats one after another.The waiters brought out the wine one after another, along with some pre-dinner fruits.

Before the banquet officially started, Liu Xie had to get up and talk. Everyone had a drink or two, then talked about the history of the great man, lamented the achievements of the ancestors, and then said that he would work hard to make the great man prosperous...

Like it or not, this procedure has to go anyway.The difference is the real toast, everyone drank real wine, but Liu Xie drank fruit juice.Without him, since it is possible to be pregnant in the womb, it is best not to drink alcohol and the like.

"Then, tell the kitchen to serve! Tonight's banquet, let's start!" After going through the same basic procedure, Liu Xie began to give orders to the side, and the latter immediately went to notify the kitchen to bring up the dishes.

All kinds of dishes have been prepared and kept warm in special heat preservation containers. Wang Yong's calculations are just right, and all of them are delivered. It takes only 3 minutes before Liu Xie orders the dishes to be served.In fact, Liu Xie saw that the dishes hadn't been served yet, so he delayed Wang Yong for 3 minutes...

"Pre-soup, bouncing pig's trotter soup!" A shout came from behind, and waiters brought cantaloupe one by one to the diners.Each diner has a cantaloupe, and the scene is quite spectacular.

"Hey!" But there was a waiter who accidentally knocked over the cantaloupe while putting it on. The guests and the waiter were startled.

"Eh!?" I was worried that the soup would spill out, but I didn't expect the soup to be left unsprinkled, which immediately aroused the curiosity of the guests.

"What's the matter with this soup?" Seeing this, a guest tried to put a spoon in it, but the spoon bounced out.To be precise, his hands shook a bit. After all, when the spoon touched the soup, he obviously felt that it was solid.

"This soup is actually solid!?" Cao Cao also took a spoonful, looking at the jelly-like soup, curious.

"For the first time, I saw a soup that needs to be chewed." Lu Zhi was also very interested, but how is such a soup made?Is this soup delicious?
"Ah... um..." Liu Xie took the lead in taking a bite, a sour-sweet, fragrant and delicious taste came from the tip of the tongue, but it was a very unusual taste, "very interesting taste!"

"It's really delicious, but I thought it would be a very good taste, like this..." Liu Yao showed dissatisfaction. In fact, many vassal kings have senior chefs. Soup of this level is really nothing .

"Clan sister, how about this soup?" Liu Qi looked at Liu Pan beside him.

"As far as the taste of the soup itself is quite interesting, the taste of sour and salty is mixed together, but the smell of the pig's trotters can be handled well. For this level of banquet, it can only be regarded as mediocre... The problem is that it It's just an appetizer!" Liu Pan gave a pertinent answer.

"That's right! This is just an appetizer!" Liu Xun next to him suddenly realized, "The significance of an appetizer is to appetize, so if it is too exciting, it will not be able to make people look forward to the next dish. After drinking this soup, I will even subconsciously Yes, I want to know what the next dish is!"

"Indeed, as the previous soup, this soup is indeed very good." Cao Cao also nodded.

But she didn't know that in order to improve this soup, Wang Yong tried several times.At first, he directly planned to use soft-shelled turtles, but later Hua Tuo told him that soft-shelled turtles would cause miscarriages in pregnant women... He was stupid to continue using soft-shelled turtles!

I was too lazy to change other soups, so I simply used pig's trotters to change the surface. Of course, salted plums were also changed to salty plums. After several adjustments, the finished product...is in its own right!
　Originally, it was planned to make bouncing turtle soup, but after investigation, it was found that it was not working... After all, the special situation of Xun Yu and Liu Xie was not taken into consideration.

　　However, after the improvement, it is actually quite good, at least as a former soup, it is not bad!
