Chapter 977
"Not enough, not enough, not enough..." Xun Yu began to complain. The simplest bacon rolls in the banquet themselves all had this taste, but after realizing this... they were gone.
"Yan, after you go back, can you ask him to find an opportunity to do it for you..." Cao Cao was a little embarrassed and persuaded.
"But the atmosphere was completely wrong." Xun Yu puffed up his cheeks.
"At least you still have food..." Wang Yun complained. After they finished eating this time, they didn't know when they would be able to eat it next time.
"Gu..." Xun Yu was embarrassed to continue complaining when he heard this, "The next dish... slow down, in order, the next dish should be steamed... If you guessed correctly, it should be fish. Which fish is the most delicious in this season?"
"During this period, the fry has just started to hatch, so this period is a fishing moratorium. You have also seen that the side dishes for the crocodile meat used were like octopus, oysters, snails and abalone. If you have fish, don't you?"
"But those ingredients have already been served in the main dish. This dish won't come out alone, right?" Cao Cao frowned immediately.
"There is a kind of fish that can be taken out at this time... The question is, does he dare!" Yang Biao thought of a kind of fish.
"What you said is not a puffer fish, right?" Dong Cheng seemed to have thought of it too.
"Suck... The puffer fish of this period are the most plump, but also the most toxic. If you can't handle it well, you will be extremely poisonous all over..." Wang Yun took a deep breath when he heard this.
During this period, pufferfish will lay eggs at the mouth of the river. In order to lay eggs smoothly, the meat is definitely very plump, but in this period, in order to avoid predation, the toxicity is also the highest time of the year.
"Think about it carefully... he doesn't seem to be afraid of anything... he took out all the meat of the dragon." Cao Cao complained.
"I have eaten puffer fish many times at home... mainly soup and steaming?" Xun Yu thought for a while.
"After all, it's better to steam and stew the soup!" Cao Cao nodded, "He can believe that the puffer fish should be handled very cleanly, just because he is worried about other people's side and doesn't know what the situation is?"
"…………It seems that I can feel at ease..." Xun Yu pointed in a certain direction.
The third duke looked over and saw that in the dark, more than 30 imperial doctors had already started to stand by. This means that whenever someone had problems, the imperial doctor would immediately come forward to treat him. Having said that... the feeling of being waiting for more than 30 imperial doctors was a little uncomfortable.
"I would rather not know that there are thirty imperial doctors on standby..." Wang Yun complained.
"I shouldn't be that curious." Yang Biao also felt that he had said something he shouldn't have said.
"The seventh dish - steamed pufferfish!" The eunuch had already started to report the name of the dish. The kitchen began to serve the plates one by one. As expected, the whole pufferfish was placed in the plate.
"The name is also that simple..." Liu Xie looked at Wang Yong angrily. She had nothing to be afraid of. First of all, Wang Yong would not poison her. He took a step back and said that he had eaten puffer fish many times in Wangjiazhuang. "Has the toxicity been confirmed? Don't say that you have tasted it this time!"
"No, no, no, this time the chef in charge of fish dishes is responsible for the test of poison, and the sous chef Yang Xiu is responsible for the part between His Majesty and Peng Zongshuai. Speaking of which, she also took the initiative to ask for the test of poison from the snake soup earlier." Wang Yong replied.
"This is indeed safer." Liu Xie nodded.
Although Wang Yong also said that if it is poisonous, even if it cannot kill him, it will make him feel uncomfortable for a while. But this thing is accurate. If there is poison, it will not cause him to react, but the amount can poison ordinary people to death, who can ask for reason?!
Yang Xiu was obviously aware of this and took the initiative to ask for a drug test. However, if two people tried the drug, it would be fine, then this puffer fish should be at ease.
"Is the pufferfish the kind that I remember?" Peng Qi looked at the milky white pufferfish on the plate, but instinctively resisted. There were pufferfish in the river, and then people from Shanyue caught it and went back to stew it. As a result, the next day, the neighbor passed by and found that the whole family was dead.
Later, after repeated verification, I found that it was the pufferfish. From that time, when the clan caught this thing, they threw it away directly, and they would not eat it anyway.
"It's...that poisonous fish... will bulge." Seeing that the two of them didn't answer, Peng Qi gestured for a moment.
"Well, it's the kind you mentioned, poisonous and bulging puffer fish." Wang Yong nodded.
"Since it's poisonous, why should I eat it?" Peng Qi thought if these Han people were sick.
"Because it's delicious!" Liu Xie smiled, then took the chopsticks himself, picked up a piece of meat, and put it in his mouth. The puffer fish in this period was indeed the most plump moment, with the meat tenderness, like double-skin milk. With the mixed sauce, the light salty fragrance stimulated the taste buds and immediately made saliva.
Although the dish in the first dish was specially cooked, the grease felt just right. However, after several consecutive dishes, there was indeed a feeling of too much grease in the air. This dish just gave the tired tongue a good rest. It was like stopping to have a drink after overeating, which was extremely comfortable.
"Really, is it okay?" Peng Qi was very surprised. These Han people were so good at playing, or were they so powerful that they could actually eat poisonous fish as if nothing had happened.
"The poisonous places of pufferfish are mainly in the epidermis, blood and ovaries. As long as you know where the poisonous places are and deal with them well, then there is no big problem. In addition, there is no white part next to it. There is the white part of pufferfish, which is also the most delicious place!" Wang Yong pointed to the small part next to the steamed fish.
"So that's it. Once it's done, it's gone without poison?" Because the soup was stewed by poisonous snakes, Peng Qi could only choose to believe Wang Yong's words. However, he was still a little nervous when he put the chopsticks on, so he picked up a piece of puffer fish meat and ate it.
The umami flavor at the entrance is simply amazing. I never thought that there would be some kind of fish that could be so delicious!
The key is that it is not like boiling in water, because it will age the meat and also cause moisture to be lost. This not only retains the moisture of the fish, but is also so soft and delicious, it is obviously a new cooking method!
"What method is this... done?" Peng Qi looked at Wang Yong curiously.
"Steaming, steaming in a cage. The cooking method of steaming is developed after frying and stir-frying. It takes only five or six years since its appearance." Wang Yong replied.
"You Han people are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are
Only when I saw the delicious food here did I realize how ignorant I was.
