Concubine Chef Youxi: Lord, Master, stop

Chapter 332 Spices
"Sister Jing, are you okay?" Mi Xiaoye asked.

Jun Yijing touched her nose and said, "This smell is so pungent, I can't stand it."

Mi Xiaoye said: "Sister Jing, this is called tulip powder. The golden color is beautiful, and eating it is also good for the body. In Tianzhu's curry bean soup, tulip powder must be added."

Black pepper is also often seen, and big businessmen also have it, and the price is expensive.Black pepper is the main ingredient of spicy curry as well as paprika, otherwise the curry will be less spicy.

What made Mi Xiaoye happy was that she came to Tianzhu and saw a lot of peppers again.The red pepper noodles sold in the market are ground into powder from Tianzhu red peppers. Under the sunlight, the fiery red of the peppers seems to spread all the way to the sky, and it feels very spicy to the eyes.

Cumin seeds are also frequent customers in the market, and Mi Xiaoye also likes this seasoning very much.Add cumin seeds while the oil is hot and it releases its rich aroma.Slightly roasted first, then ground into powder, and sprinkled on steamed vegetables, the taste will become very delicious.

Sweet red pepper is also the condiment that Mi Xiaoye wants to see the most. It tastes not spicy at all, but it is bright and eye-catching, and it is pleasing to the eye when placed in the dish.Many diners in Chang'an still don't like the hotness of peppers, so this kind of sweet red pepper has a beautiful color and a light taste. If it can be cultivated in Chang'an, it will definitely be welcomed by the public.

"Master, look quickly, if we take this sweet red pepper back and cultivate it, it will definitely be welcomed." Mi Xiaoye said holding the sweet red pepper, "Master, I remember that there are many children's dishes in my hometown, which are eaten by children. The dishes here are all made with sweet red peppers or yellow peppers, not to mention the nice color, and the taste is not too spicy, if they are made beautifully, they will catch people's attention immediately."

Su Ziling smiled and said: "If we find good ingredients, we must take them to Chang'an, cultivate them, and let more people taste them. Isn't that cloves?"

Mi Xiaoye turned her head away and said with a smile: "I just saw that Master has good eyesight. Cloves have a strong smell, so you don't need to add more when cooking. Just a little bit with your fingertips will produce a wonderful taste."

"I also like the taste of cloves, but it's more expensive to buy in Chang'an, let's buy some back." Su Ziling said.

"This shape is novel, I don't know what it is." Jun Yize said.

Mi Xiaoye looked back and saw the spices in Jun Yize's hands, and said with a smile, "This is called fenugreek seeds. When the fenugreek seeds are sautéed with oil in the pot, there will be a special charcoal smell."

"Hulubazi?" Yun Muqing said with a smile, "This name is really interesting."

In addition, Mi Xiaoye also saw green fennel seeds, the light green color is very attractive.If you have eaten a strong meal, chew some green fennel seeds in your mouth after the meal to help digestion and refresh the mouth, just like modern chewing gum.If you roast the green fennel seeds first, add some crushed rock sugar and shredded coconut, and serve them to the guests after the meal, it is a good dessert for entertaining guests.

In addition, black mustard seeds are very similar to Wasabi in Fusang country. After adding water, ginger, and chili, they are ground into a puree and made into a slightly pungent sauce. It can be added to various vegetables or used to dip fish. Black mustard seeds are sautéed in hot oil, which also releases a strong aroma.

After shopping around for a long time, what excited Mi Xiaoye the most was that he found "Ferui".Asafoetida is not a person, but a special seasoning.
