Emperor of the Tang Dynasty

This is not an exaggeration of Li You. First of all, Li You's cooking skills absolutely do not need to be questioned, and secondly, like the method of cooking, it is a cooking method that even the emperor Li Shimin has never eaten.

For example, to stir fry the locusts, first drown the locusts in water, and then stir them in the boiling water, so that the locusts are clean. It has the effect of pickling.

Then add sesame oil, pepper and other seasonings, and finally add the locusts. After slow frying on a small fire, the locusts can be made more fragrant and crispy, and the fragrance is gradually overflowing!

As for the temperature of the stir-fry, Li You can also grasp it for a second, and soon when the body of the locust becomes golden and red, it is time for Li You to serve.

There are many other dishes like this, and soon the aroma of various locust dishes has spread into the banquet hall.

The people who were still talking about it at first were silent for a while, and when they smelled the smell, they only felt that their index fingers moved!

"Gudong..."

Many people swallowed their saliva subconsciously, only to feel that they were surrounded by various aromas, which made them feel hungry just by smelling the smell.

"smell good!"

Li Shimin was even more surprised. Even the emperor who eats imperial meals every day rarely smells such fragrant dishes. He couldn't help but ask, "Yang Jie, could it be that these are the scent of locusts?"

"Exactly," Li You snapped his fingers and said, "the locusts can be so delicious after being cooked reasonably, then let me present you the first ever locust feast!"

With the sound of Li You snapping his fingers, the maids began to serve dishes one by one.

Looking at the locusts that were no longer emerald green, everyone's eyes widened.

"After it's cooked, it's golden and red again. It really looks a lot better..." Cheng Yaojin muttered to himself.

Li You pointed at the dishes and introduced them one by one: "This is Tianji shrimp steak, this is Shanghai drunk locust, this is spicy locust, this is Jinsha Feiyan, this is Jesus fried locust, this is fried Tianji, This is the braised locust 723, this is the locust crossing the snow-capped mountains..."

After a series of dishes were registered, all the officials and officials were a little dizzy.

How dare this locust not only be eaten now, but also has so many ways to eat it by His Royal Highness the King of Chu?

His Royal Highness the King of Chu is truly the world's number one expert in eating locusts!

At this time, looking at the locust dish in front of them, it seems that it is not so difficult to accept, and it has a feeling of delicious food.

"I have killed countless enemies, and I have never been afraid of anyone. How could I be afraid of you, a little pest today!?"

After a while, Cheng Yaojin roared first, and was the first to grab one of the golden locusts and put it in his mouth.

"Sir Cheng, wait a minute," Li You raised his hand, "the head and feet of the locusts can be removed before eating..."

However, he was still half a step too late. Cheng Yaojin's action was too fast. After putting it in his mouth, he stared at Li You.

"...His Royal Highness King Chu, you should have said this earlier!"

Li Youshi smiled and said: "(bbfg), in fact, the head and feet of locusts are not inedible, but they are just a little hard, but I believe that with the good teeth of Lord Cheng, this is probably not a problem."

Only then did Cheng Yaojin feel relieved and began to chew the locusts in his mouth.

"Well...it's really crunchy. It's completely different from the unpalatable taste I imagined, and it's also very fragrant!"

While eating, Cheng Yaojin nodded and commented. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he caught several more locusts and put them in his mouth.

"This..." Li Xiaogong hurriedly asked, "You mean, this is delicious?"

Cheng Yaojin licked his fingers and said contentedly, "Yeah, just like the crispy and crunchy river prawns, His Royal Highness the King of Chu is really right!"

"It's... delicious?"

The rest of the people looked at the dishes in disbelief when they heard the words, thinking that Cheng Yaojin was playing a double reed with His Royal Highness the King of Chu, right?

At this time, Li You also came out with a smile and said, "I advise you adults to eat it while it's hot. It won't taste good when it's cold. It's also important to eat locusts. The mother's will taste better than the male's."

"Oh?" Wei Zheng asked curiously, "Why is this? How can you tell the difference between male and female?"

Li You grabbed a locust in a vegetable plate, pointed to the locust's belly and said, "Look, this is the mother's locust, and the belly will be bigger because it is full of eggs."

Locust eggs!

As soon as they heard this term, everyone was subconsciously horrified, thinking of the densely packed locust eggs that caused a headache.

"We can't solve the locust eggs, but they can be eaten before they are born, and they are delicious when cooked!"

After Li You said that, he had already eaten a locust with relish.

After Li You finished speaking, Li Shimin carefully observed the locusts on the plate according to Li You's method, and said "Huh".

"Yang Jie, did this locust have its wings torn off?"

"Yeah," Li You smiled, "locusts actually have two layers of wings, but because the outer layer of wings is used to protect the inner layer of wings used for flight, it is very hard and must be torn off first, but the inner layer is used to protect the wings. The wings are light and thin, but also very tasty.”

When Li You talked about locusts, he acted soberly, which made everyone think that Li You really did a lot of research on it.

Then, this locust should be really delicious!

Thinking of this, they finally made up their minds and started to eat locusts one after another. At this time, Cheng Yaojin had eaten more than a dozen locusts.

At first, when they put the locusts in their mouths, they felt very frightened.

As a result, after chewing a few times, everyone found that this locust was really fragrant, crispy and delicious!

"It turned out to be really delicious! It's all delicious!"

Zhang Liang sighed again and again after eating, but felt that His Royal Highness the King of Chu would not deceive me!
