Concubine Chef Youxi: Lord, Master, stop

Chapter 331 Spices
Everyone left Chenla Kingdom and walked towards Tianzhu Kingdom. The road was too hot, and everyone ate some simple dry food.Wu Shaoqing also took everyone to hurry up, and when they arrived in the capital, they would feel better.

On the way to Tianzhu, despite the hot weather, Mi Xiaoye also pays great attention to the unique ingredients here.

As far as the entire Southeast Asia area is concerned, the most distinctive features are all kinds of spices.When she was in Chenla, Mi Xiaoye focused on fruits.In addition to Jun Yize's affairs, I originally wanted to stay in Chenla for a few more days to take a good look at other ingredients, but it didn't work out.

On the way to Tianzhu, Mi Xiaoye paid attention to the spices that could be seen.

Curry, cinnamon, pepper, star anise, lemon leaves, pistachio, chili, ginger, turmeric, tamarind, coriander, cloves, nutmeg, fennel, saffron, fenugreek, pepper... have become famous here. To promote the world, Mi Xiaoye also heard it when he was in Dashang.There are indeed a lot of spices here, some are sold individually, and they are all prepared.

These spices have a strong aroma and spicy taste. Cooking dishes with a reasonable ratio will produce a special aroma and spicy taste, which reminds Mi Xiaoye of a very classic sauce made of spices—— Garam masala.

Mi Xiaoye remembers that the aroma of this garam masala sauce comes from cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, caraway seeds, coriander seeds, the spiciness comes from chili, pepper, wild pepper, ginger, and the yellow color comes from turmeric raw materials natural color.

The spices prepared in this way are not only delicious, but also brighter in color.

When they arrived in Magaduo, everyone unloaded at the posthouse and saluted. Mi Xiaoye begged Su Ziling to go to the market to have a look. Su Ziling took Mi Xiaoye, Yun Muqing, Jun's brothers and sisters, and Liu Lin to the largest market in Magaduo. .Arriving here, Mi Xiaoye felt the use of spices even more.

Su Ziling took Mi Xiaoye with him. Apart from rushing along the way, he also paid special attention to the spices from Tianzhu, and bought them back when he saw them, so as to make up for the regret of not buying spices in Chenla.

Along the way, Mi Xiaoye started the shopping mode, wishing to move all the spices in the market back to Chang'an.

The market everyone visits is also one of the largest markets in Magadha. Mi Xiaoye can see many different kinds of spices.

"What is this, it's actually black?" Jun Yize asked with a smile.

Mi Xiaoye looked around and found a vendor selling black salt. Mi Xiaoye was very excited. Black salt is rich in various minerals such as iron and calcium. It has a unique flavor and is considered a high-end material.

In addition to black salt, there are more common large-grained sea salt and ghee that is not seen in Chenla.

"This is somewhat similar to the lard we use for cooking, but the taste is different." Liu Lin saw ghee in front of another stall.

Mi Xiaoye said with a smile: "Ghee is fat extracted from cow and goat milk. Sheep ghee is white, but not as good as cow ghee."

Ginger is also the most common spice in the Tianzhu market. Tianzhu people like ginger very much, and ginger is often used in ordinary home cooking. Ginger is ground into ginger pieces or ginger shreds with both ends of a stone pestle. Almost every dish puts a little ginger. Ginger is often used to make sweet ginger tea and drink to promote digestion.

"Wow, I like this yellow-yellow powder, the color is so bright." Jun Yijing shouted, "It seems to be able to dye cloth, and... choo, choo, choo!"
