Gourmets in the Heavens
Page 393
Even if it belongs to the Yaozhou system, it is a top existence above the general recipes.
Although Hong Qigong's world certainly doesn't have many people who combine internal strength to cook, but for the imperial dining room in the palace compound, it is by no means surprising that there are a few people with some foundation.
Their cultivation base is superficial, but after training, their culinary skills are far beyond the imagination of ordinary chefs, and this is how this dish of "Mandarin Duck and Five Treasures" was born.
Knife skills alone are not enough, the focus of this dish is also on the kitchen utensils and the way of cooking.
This is why Hong Qigong thought that this dish could only be tasted in the deep palace compound.
In order for Huang Rong to figure out the secret inside, the members of the Beggar Clan spent a lot of thought before finally solving the mystery.
I am also amazed at the thoughtfulness of the imperial chef, but only the imperial chef can use various utensils in this way, so there is no need to worry about the cost.
So even if Huang Rong figured out how to make this dish, she never actually made it, because it was too extravagant.
It wasn't that Huang Rong didn't have the financial resources, but that Guo Jing, who had never had a cold about these things, didn't like such waste, and would rather eat simple things, so Huang Rong followed her own love Lang's wishes.
But just looking at Zhao Youqian's pre-processing and the pile of poultry bones that were made like a hill, I know that this dish is not cheap, not to mention the need for special utensils, which is even more expensive.
Even when Hong Qigong walked into Zhutian Restaurant, even if he was the first diner today, Zhao Youqian was still doing the pre-preparation work, and never had a moment to spare.
But Hong Qigong's eyes lit up, because he had already seen the special vessel that was only found in the deep royal palace!
Celadon silver gilt cup!
It is said that the cup is actually a small bowl with hollow parts.
However, unlike ordinary utensils, the bottom of it is made of silver alloy, while the hollowed out part for holding food is made of pure celadon.
Unlike ordinary celadon that will turn black after being burned at high temperature, celadon impregnated with this special fuel will show a more emerald green color after heating.
This is also a top-quality utensil that only craftsmen specially supported by the royal family can make.
And this dish is expensive, and it is also expensive in this place. This kind of celadon cup is almost ten times more expensive than gold of equal weight.
You can know how astronomical the cost of cooking this dish is.
Only the royal family would create such a vessel specifically for a dish.
If it wasn't for Zhao Youqian who could exchange points for such a set of utensils, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to make this dish of mandarin ducks and five treasures in a short time.
And the price of this set of things is quite high, as high as [-] points!
This is much more expensive than Yujing wheat. If it can't be used to hold other dishes, it is really not worthwhile to simply exchange such a set of utensils.
It also shows the value of this set of things. If it is put on sale, even if it has no historical value, it is not impossible to sell it for a sky-high price in the gourmet world just because of the wonderful design idea and the ability to cooperate with special dishes.
This is why this set of utensils is so expensive.
Wash those utensils carefully by hand, not because there will be any stains after the exchange, but the process of washing in this way is also a way to get familiar with these utensils. When the washing is almost finished, Hong Qigong just stepped in All Heavens House.
Zhao Youqian showed a smile, and then opened his mouth to complain.
"Qi Gong, I have spent a lot of effort for your delicious mouthful!"
As soon as Hong Qigong entered the small restaurant, his eyes were fixed on those celadon and silver cups, and he said with a smile when he heard Zhao Youqian's complaint.
"Anyway, I'm a beggar, so I threw more than a hundred catties to the store manager. You said that you will never go west..."
Hearing what Hong Qigong said, Zhao Youqian just smiled and said nothing, after all they all knew it was just a joke.
"Since Qigong is so sincere, I will definitely present this dish to you perfectly. Over there is the 'immortal tea' that has just been brewed..."
Before Zhao You could finish his words, Hong Qigong had already started to take down the jars of wine from the wine cabinet.
"Everything is enough with wine, now we are waiting for food..."
Opening the wine jar, a golden light mixed with a touch of silver was reflected, and the fragrance of laurel wafted, making Hong Qigong close his eyes to enjoy the taste.
Knowing that Hong Qigong was secretly reminding him to cook quickly, Zhao Yougan was not angry, he laughed, and started to prepare to do it.
The key to this dish of mandarin ducks and five treasures is to be fast, and the knife must be fast!Dishes are even faster!
I saw that he specially used a meat knife that is much thinner, wider and longer than ordinary kitchen knives. In the small plate in front of the cutting board.
Because of the thinness of the knife blade, when the piece of meat is spread flat on the white plate, the color of the meat itself can hardly be seen, but the white plate can be seen directly through the light. This is called the real thin and transparent!
And this is just cutting the first waterfowl!
Mandarin duck and five delicacies, the main ingredient is mandarin duck and green jade duck, but other rare ingredients are also indispensable, hazel chicken is inevitable, other birds and pigeons, and the remaining two are fish. , the name is: four-gill perch, and the other and the most critical one is the venison of livestock!
This is also the reason why mandarin ducks are so precious. In addition to mandarin ducks and green jade ducks, other ingredients are also extremely rare.
Hazel chicken is already a precious food with the nickname of flying dragon. The meat is white and delicate, just like a piece of high-quality creamy fat. The pigeon meat is even more chewy and elastic. Not to mention, it has always been a great tonic.
Paired with the extremely delicious and rare green jade duck, this dish is not worth tens of thousands of gold, but it is almost the same.
In terms of ingredients alone, among the many dishes Zhao Youqian made, except for the use of fantasy and legendary ingredients, it was the most expensive.
Slices of meat like cicada's wings appeared under Zhao Youqian's hands. Five different ingredients were cut into five slices of meat, but there was no fishy or foul smell at all. Even the most peculiar-smelling pigeon meat and venison, Layered on the plate, it looks like pieces of red emeralds.
Even Hong Qigong showed a look of surprise, looked at Zhao Youqian and spoke in disbelief.
"This..."
