Food, drink and merrymaking in another world

From the door behind the stairs on the first floor through a long corridor, through two utility rooms is the kitchen of the entire mansion. Since moving into this house, Linda hasn't been in until the time of cleaning up.As soon as she entered the door, Linda felt that the kitchen was much bigger than the one in Fresh Food. There might be servants taking care of it. The whole kitchen was very clean, and the kitchen utensils they brought from Fresh Food were neatly placed in the wooden cabinets.There are four stoves, two big and two small, and three ovens, which look quite luxurious.

Linda pointed to the new kitchen utensils in the cupboard and asked Harry, "Can you use these?" Harry shook his head, "My lord, this is the first time I've seen these." Linda understood that even Barry couldn't understand them. Use, let alone him.

He walked over and took a closer look at all the seasonings, only to find that there were only a few kinds. Besides the common ones such as oil, salt and vinegar bean paste, there were also two kinds of powders that he had never seen before.He dipped his fingers in each and tasted them, and found that the taste was similar to star anise and black pepper.Pointing to the two powders, he asked, "What kind of seasoning are these two?"

Harry followed him all the time, and hurriedly said: "This is a new popular seasoning in the city recently. The red one is called hemp, and the black one seems to be called black pepper because it tastes stronger than pepper. It is said to be I just bought some of the merchant’s new discoveries, but I haven’t used them yet.” Linda praised: “Oh, hemp and black pepper are very good. If you see new seasonings in the future, remember to buy them and show them to me. Look." Harry nodded quickly, delighted.Linda looked around and asked, "Is there a storage room? Show me." Harry hurriedly led the way, but he was very thankful that he had just tidied up today, otherwise the adults would see the messy piles of things piled up. Don't blame yourself for dereliction of duty.

The pantry was on the basement outside the back door of the kitchen, and the entrance was just three steps away from the back door. Harry led the way with a candlestick, and Linda followed.After Harry lit the candlesticks on the wall, Linda looked around.This storage room looks larger than the fresh food one, because it is underground, and it is autumn now, and the temperature is still relatively cool.There are several wooden shelves in the storage room, which are full of fresh vegetables and various cured meat, kippers, sausages, etc., stuffed to the brim.Linda remembered that when he left from Food for Freshness, he saved some of those seasonings and packed the rest, why he didn't see it now.He turned around and asked, "Do you know where the seasonings we brought are kept? They are packed in many sacks wrapped in cloth, and there should be a few more jars." Harry thought for a while, walked to the corner shelf and looked up and down. Turning around, he pulled out a bunch of things and asked, "Is this?" Linda went over to open it, and found that it was the seasonings he had packed.He looked along the shelves again, and finally found jars containing soy sauce, hot sauce, a little tomato sauce, and fermented bean curd on the bottom shelf.He took out the jar of soy sauce, put it aside, and took some seasonings that were not available in the kitchen. Harry cleverly helped to carry it.

Linda pointed to the pile of vegetables and asked, "How long can this vegetable be stored?" Harry said, "According to the current climate, it can be stored for about a week, but after three days, it won't taste very good, so Usually they only buy 3 days' worth." Linda nodded, and he and he went back to the kitchen.

Linda said: "The bread you bake is actually pretty good, but the others are not as good. I wanted you to make a few dishes and then help you improve them, but now I think I'll demonstrate them first, and then you Learn to cook. After all, I don’t know much about the food in Wangcheng, so it’s better to start with what I’m good at.” Harry asked in surprise, “Your Excellency can also cook?” Linda laughed and said, “Although I am a magician myself, but Before I came to Wangcheng, I opened a small restaurant. I can’t say how good my cooking skills are. It’s just a fresh idea. Let’s not talk about this. I’m going to make a few simple dishes now. You can help me first. I'll tell you in detail." Harry nodded repeatedly, and graciously helped him get his apron, wash the vegetables and cook the pot.

Linda thought about it, and thought that if he was taught how to make stir-fry from the beginning, would it be difficult to get started?This chef's skill is similar to that of Barry who was just hired, and he has learned it for 30 years. For him, can Chinese cooking be quickly accepted?After looking at the materials at hand, I searched in my mind for Western dishes that I had learned from others, and I immediately had an idea.

Put a little more water in the pot, pour three tablespoons of soy sauce, three tablespoons of sugar, two tablespoons of minced garlic, one tablespoon of wine, a little pepper, a little cinnamon powder, a little hemp, and a little cumin. Cook over low heat until it becomes a paste. Transfer to a small pot.Pick up a piece of fresh meat, cut it into 1 cm thick slices, chop the meat softly with the back of a knife, put it in a large bowl, scoop a spoonful of the sauce that was boiled in the jar just now, spread it evenly and marinate for 10 to 15 minutes.Peel a large apple and cut it into slices, put two slices on the washed large vegetable leaves, put the meat on the apple slices after marinating, then cover the top with apple slices, and wrap them with vegetable leaves , Put it in the oven for [-] minutes and take it out.When the vegetable leaves are pushed aside, the gravy mixed with the sauce flows out at once, and the aroma hits the face. Put the meat and apples on the plate, and this is the apple barbecue.

Harry swallowed, it smelled really good.Linda cut off a small piece of meat with a knife and fork, put it in his mouth, tasted it, and nodded with satisfaction.He handed Harry the knife and fork, motioning for him to try it.Harry quickly took it, carefully cut a piece and put it in his mouth.tasty!The aroma of apple and vegetable leaves melted into the meat, full of fruity aroma, tender and juicy, rich in taste, very delicious.This method of grilling meat looks very simple, but I didn't expect it to taste so good.

He looked at Linda with admiration, and when he thought that such a good craftsmanship would be passed on to him, even his eyes became hot.

Linda smiled indifferently. While waiting for the barbecue just now, he took a piece of salty bread and added bird eggs to make a simple French toast. The method is even simpler, that is, cut the bread into slices, Wrap the beaten eggs and fry in a pan until golden on both sides, then spread the jam on it.He asked Harry to taste it, and said, "This is very simple and easy to make. You should be able to learn it once I demonstrate it like this. This is suitable for eating in the morning. You can make this tomorrow morning." With food in his mouth, Harry nodded repeatedly promise.

Take a piece of multi-winged bird meat and chop it into a puree, chop the mushrooms, cut the pumpkin into pieces, steam it and grind it into a puree. Add salt and mix these three things together evenly.Crack two bird eggs and stir them evenly, put them in a pan and spread them into egg cakes, take them out, spread them on the chopping board, spread the stirred fillings evenly on top, roll them into long egg rolls and steam them in the pan for 10 minutes .After it is fully cooked, take it out, cut it into pieces with a knife and place it on a plate, and finally pour tomato sauce on it, and you can eat it.

Harry tasted a piece and asked, "What's this called, please? It's really delicious, and there's this kind of red sauce, which I've never eaten before." Linda also picked up a piece, and said while eating: "This It’s called assorted egg rolls, and the red one on top is tomato sauce, which is not too much now, if you like spicy food, you can put chili sauce, the taste is just as good.”

Just as he was talking, he heard rustling and swallowing sounds outside the door. Linda and Harry glanced at each other. Harry walked over quietly, and suddenly opened the door, and immediately two figures fell down. go down.Linda looked and found that almost all the servants had arrived.The two who fell on the ground got up in embarrassment, and it turned out to be the housekeeper and Quez.

Being caught in the act, the housekeeper and servants stood aside in embarrassment and bewilderment, but Quez walked in shamelessly like a normal person, sniffing and said, "It smells so good, you are cooking again!" Have a taste? Give me a taste! I’m not full tonight!” Before Linda could say anything, he had already spotted the food on the table, and rushed over like a hungry wolf, picked up a fork and fed it into his mouth.

Linda had black lines all over his head. He glanced at the corner of his eyes and saw Nazgray who had rushed over after hearing the sound. He pointed to Quez and said to him, "Quickly, get this shameful guy out of here!" Nazgray moved away. Everyone, walked in and picked up Quez, who was devouring it, and was about to throw him out.

Quez held a fork in one hand and an empty plate in the other, with his mouth full of food, he protested vaguely: "You two are not enough friends, let me down! I want to eat!" Linda laughed Looking at him, this man is really embarrassing to the king, he is still the second prince, why is he so virtuous.He smiled at Nazgray and nodded, and Nazgray put him down.Quez threw the plate and fork in his hand on the table, swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "Eros, you are so mean, and you didn't tell me about the delicious food at home! If I didn't come to you, why would you?" You will miss this great opportunity!"

Linda ignored him, looked at Harry aside, and then at the door.Sure enough, Harry and the butler's servants were already stunned, staring at Quez, their eyeballs were about to fall out.He sighed and said, "I'm teaching my cook how to cook, what kind of fun are you doing? And it's getting late, what are you doing here?" He said to Harry again: "It seems that I can only teach here today Now, think about the dishes I made for you just now, and let them taste them, and I will teach you a few more tomorrow." The servants outside the door were very happy when they heard the words, but the good training prevented them from showing any excitement. screamed, just looked at Harry eagerly.

Linda took Nazgray's arm and asked him to take Quez to the study together.The butler was about to follow, but Linda waved his hand to signal that he didn't need to follow, the butler hurriedly saluted them and left.

In the study room, Nazgren pulled Linda to sit on the double sofa, and Quez sat opposite them, smiling and saying, "I ran away from home, please take me in!"

"What?" "Ah?" Linda and Nazgray exclaimed together, they looked at each other, then stared at Quez and asked, "What's going on? Run away from home? You and your elder brother had a conflict ? Or with the king..."

Quez lazily fiddled with the decorations on one side of the table, and said indifferently: "There is nothing, but the cook at home has something to do at home these days and asked for leave. The replacement one is not as good as the previous one. I am used to it. Eros's craftsmanship is really unbearable, so he simply skipped the house. How about it, do you have my room? I specially asked my elder brother to help you find a good house. The guest room is enough for this day, hehe. "He smiled triumphantly.

Linda frowned, while Nazgray said with a sullen face, "Hmph, free food again! Since you're here to live, you'll have to pay the room fee!" As soon as the words finished, Quez and Linda stared at him in surprise. Touching his face, he asked, "What's wrong?"

Quez asked in disbelief: "Oh my God, after a few days we haven't seen you, you can do this!" Linda touched his face and said in surprise: "Who did you learn from? It's not like You!" Nazgray grabbed Linda to touch his hand, took it off and kissed him, just smiled and didn't answer, just looked at Quez and waited for him to answer.

Seeing this, Quez had no choice but to raise his hands as a gesture of surrender: "Okay, okay, I'll just hand it in. By the way, I ran out by myself today, and my family will definitely send someone to protect me tomorrow. Please find a room for them to live in, and I will pay for the rent."

Linda thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Should I send someone to inform your elder brother now? In case he is anxious." Quez shook his head: "Of course someone around him will tell him, don't worry. By the way, what about your cook? Can you adjust the time? I miss your cooking so much. How about you make breakfast tomorrow morning?" He looked at Linda with a flattering smile, and Linda snorted: "Don't dream, I'm teaching today, just I was interrupted by you, and I still have something to eat. It would be nice to give you a place to live, so don’t push yourself too hard. By the way, you just came, and you can help me draw the renderings of the store tomorrow. After the drawing is finished, you can contact the craftsman. If I’m in a good mood, I might make a few new dishes to try, and I just found out that Wangcheng has ingredients that I haven’t seen in Tuowei City. Alright, we’re going to rest, you ask the servant to take you to your room, good night.”

With a bitter face, Quez watched the figures of the two disappear outside the door, and muttered, "I really don't feel comfortable sending them to the door by myself, alas..." He shrugged and went out to find someone to lead the way.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, after eating the breakfast newly cooked by cook Harry, Quez was dragged by Linda to draw renderings and three-dimensional drawings of the store, together with Nazgray.In the morning, the steward came to report that the eldest prince had sent several people, saying that they were serving the second prince.Linda was discussing the issue of the store with Queznaz Gray. He waved his hand after hearing this, signaling the housekeeper to make arrangements for himself, and then continued the discussion.

In the evening, Linda taught Harry some basic Chinese stir-fried dishes, but a group of people wandered around the kitchen door, while the cheeky Quez stayed on the sidelines, eager to eat Linda's demonstration. Was dragged out by Nazgray.The two fought endlessly in the yard, which aroused their desire to fight, so whenever they had time, the two began to fight and fight, which was called exchanging skills.

Linda didn't care about them. He felt that young people are full of energy. It doesn't matter to vent. As long as it doesn't affect others, they can do whatever they want.
