I have a Yokai cookbook [Gourmet]

Chi Ming has worked hard for this opening.

At the entrance of Chi Yan, he purposely set up a big pot.

The half-cooked pig's trotters, sheep's trotters, and quail are soaked in the brightly colored brine.

As the brine boils, the aroma of the stewed meat is also stimulated layer by layer by more than [-] kinds of seasonings.The fragrance is as if it does not want money, and it is drilled into the nostrils of passers-by on the road.

The fat chef stood behind the cauldron, stirring it meticulously with a spoon every moment, in order to make each pig's trotter more evenly tasted.

Under the temptation of this domineering and charming meat aroma, the diners who were going to Chixiang Pavilion turned around one after another, and involuntarily walked towards the cauldron that continuously emitted the aroma of meat.

"How do you sell this pig's trotter? Can I buy it now?" Several diners surrounded the large pot of lo-mei that was constantly bubbling, swallowing with difficulty.

"Not for sale, this is a gift in the store. Anyone who enters the store for consumption will get one of them." The fat cook continued to move his hands, while answering questions patiently.With his movements, the pig's trotters and sheep's trotters floated up and down in the stewed soup, and the aroma became more and more intense.

At this moment, Li Qi trotted out and said loudly: "Fatty, two pig's feet."

"Okay." The fat cook quickly picked out a trembling, bright red pig's trotter with long chopsticks and put it on a white plate.

Under the sunshine, the trotters look more and more attractive.

The trotters have long been boiled soft and look red, especially the gelatinous skin, which is fat but not greasy, and the meat is tender and smooth.

Those who were still a little hesitant all rushed into the pool banquet.

You can send pig's trotters for consumption, which is a profit no matter how you look at it.

But when they saw the prices on the menu, they were stunned.

Peach Blossom Crisp: 100 taels per plate

Tea Fragrant Chicken: 200 taels

Pear porridge: 100 taels a bowl

Wufa pill: 1000 taels

Grilled lamb chops: 300 taels per dish

Peach blossom wine: one cup of one hundred gold

Although the general consumption level of the people in the capital is indeed not low, everyone was stunned for such a high price for these seemingly ordinary things.

Could it be that the things in this store cannot be made of gold.

However, Li Changqing and Qin Yong ate very happily.

The two can also be regarded as a bond because of eating, and they usually have the pleasure of getting together to drink and taste delicious food.But this time, the two insisted on sitting separately, not to disturb each other, and even the dishes served were almost exactly the same.

As soon as Li Changqing took the pig's trotters that Li Qi handed over, he didn't care about his appearance, so he picked it up and gnawed it into his mouth.

After returning to the capital for so long, what he misses the most is the dishes made by Chi Xiaozi, especially this stewed pig's trotters, which has haunted him for a long time.For this reason, he even searched all over the streets and alleys of the capital, just to find something that could be comparable to Chi Ming's braised pig's trotters. As a result, the more he ate, the more depressed he became.

Strictly speaking, Qin Yu had only eaten spring rolls and pickled fish made by Chi Ming at the God of Cooking Competition, and it was also the first time he had eaten pig's trotters.

At first, he was reluctant to try it, because pig's trotters were really indecent to eat, and it would be more or less like eating it behind closed doors at home.

Originally there were outsiders around, and he, the president of the food association, still had to worry about his reputation, but when he turned his head, he saw that Li Changqing had already gnawed half of it, especially the smell that made him swallow continuously.

At first he ate with chopsticks, but in the end he was able to eat to the top, so he simply threw away the chopsticks and ate with his hands.

"This stewed pig's trotter is soft and waxy, and the taste is really amazing."

"Hmph, I told you before, but you still don't believe me." Li Changqing snorted coldly, and Chi Xiaozi is now the best in his mind, bar none.

"Hey, who knew you and I were talking about the same person." Qin Yong retorted, and he didn't know that the person Li Changqing said was the best cook was Chi Ming.However, such an excellent young man is already the elder of their association, and when he thinks about it, he feels that he is really astute.

Most of the first batch of people who ran into the store were food-driven gourmets. They couldn’t stand the smell, but seeing the two of them gorging on meat and sipping on alcohol, they couldn’t bear it anymore.

"Xiaoer, bring me pear porridge." The man glanced at the menu and decided to try the cheapest one first.The so-called seeing the big from the small, if the food is really delicious, he is not short of the money.

"Xiaoer, I'll also have pear porridge." The people behind followed suit.

It's not that they like to drink porridge, but that they have to try the taste to get into the pit.Even if the porridge is poorly made, it doesn't matter, the pig's trotters in the big pot outside are worth it.

When Chi Ming received the order, he looked at more than a dozen orders for peach blossom porridge and wondered.

After listening to Chacha's vivid description of the scene outside, I probably knew it in my heart.

The taste of peach blossom porridge is light, and the petals used are century-old.The rice used to cook the porridge is still the peach blossom rice produced in Taohua Town, because this kind of rice has moderate viscosity, strong swelling and not easy to break, has a silky luster, and the aroma is more fragrant than ordinary rice when cooked, and it tastes more glutinous and fragrant.

When the porridge was about to be cooked, Chi Ming sprinkled flower petals and peach flesh, without adding sugar. The porridge and peach flesh itself tasted sweet, and when they were added, they would become sweet and greasy. The taste of peach porridge itself.

When the people at the coffee table took out the peach blossom porridge, the faint fragrance of peach blossoms also wafted out.

A few people who ordered peach blossom porridge didn't have high expectations. They didn't expect that the porridge was not only good in appearance, but also delicious and soft.Especially the peach flesh particles inside, with a touch of peach flesh fragrance.

A small bowl of porridge was finished in a few sips, and someone smacked his mouth, feeling a little unsatisfied.They are all people who are used to delicacies from mountains and seas. This porridge seems ordinary, but after eating it in the stomach, the whole body feels like a spring breeze, and the whole body feels very comfortable.

The few people who came back to the taste hurriedly asked the waiter to order another one, but they were told that they could only order one bowl at a time, saying that eating too much would cause the body to lose weight.

The few people had no choice but to urge Li Qi to go outside to get the pig's trotters, fearing that if they got there late, they would lose their share of the pig's trotters.

Because the peach blossom porridge tasted really good, everyone started to buy tea-flavored chicken and grilled lamb chops again.

It's not until the food is actually in your mouth that you realize that such food is really worth the price.

The tea-flavored chicken is not only rich in tea aroma, but even the chicken is delicious.

The grilled lamb chops are not like other restaurants that have a bit of a fishy smell, but instead have a strong aroma that lingers on the teeth and cheeks.The lamb chops are grilled until they are browned on both sides, and the top is sprinkled with crushed peanuts and almonds. When you take a bite, the juice is so tender that it drips down.

In just half an hour, not only the first floor, but even the second floor was full.

All the monsters were pulled out by Chi Ming to help, except for the little ginseng essence in a red bellyband and the fleece-flower root essence with small arms and short legs, even Lin Yaoyao was enthusiastically helping to guide customers.

When the monsters take shape, they are originally visualized towards the one they like in their hearts.The man is handsome and handsome, and the woman is as beautiful as a fairy and fairy boy in the painting.

For a while, the diners didn't know whether to eat first or admire the beauty first, and they were already "drunk" before drinking.

Liu Yi just got the news that Chi Ming came to the capital and opened a restaurant called Chi Yan.

Although he has only entered the academy not long ago, he is very popular and has made many friends.

One is Li Changqing's eldest grandson, Li Chen, and the other is Zhang Yizhi, the second-in-law grandson of Minister of Rites.

"Li Chen, Zhang Yizhi, why don't we go out to eat together at noon, I heard that there is a nice restaurant called Chi Yan that just opened nearby."

Li Chen was already tired of eating the dishes made by the cook at home, and he often heard his grandfather talk about the delicacies he had eaten in Tongjun's mansion, so he wanted to change his taste for a long time.

Zhang Yi's family is not bad, and they are also small gourmets. They ate all over the restaurants in the capital with their grandfather when they were young. When they heard that a new restaurant opened, they immediately became interested.

The three hit it off and left as soon as they said it.

Liu Yi originally held the mentality of supporting Chi Ming, thinking that he didn't know anyone in the capital. Although he is weak now, it is better than doing nothing.

Before reaching the door, the aroma of stewed meat had already made the three of them crave their stomachs, and all of them secretly quickened their pace in unison.But when they really stood outside Chi Yan's gate, they were dumbfounded for a moment.

The people waiting in line were hundreds of meters away from the store entrance.

That is to say, if the three of them want to eat this meal, they may not be able to take the wheel after waiting for several hours.

Three people, you look at me, I look at you, they don't have much time for lunch, if they go back late, the master will inevitably scold them.

"What should I do? How about another one?"

"No, this is the only one. My intuition tells me that this restaurant is delicious."

"I think so too. It's a big deal that I will sneak in over the wall later, and the master may not know."

The three hit it off and lined up without any psychological burden.

"What's the matter with those people who went in, how can they eat so slowly, I'm really anxious to death."

"That's right, I just watched the pig's trotters being taken away. I don't know if there will be any more when it's my turn. This is my favorite food in my life. If it happens to be there, I will probably vomit blood on the spot. Three liters."

"Tsk tsk, see what you said. Without the pig's trotters, don't you still have goat's trotters? I think the goat's trotters look good."

"Hey, I want to eat the chicken in that pot instead. I think it looks better than the color of the beggar's chicken. The chicken is not big, and it should taste very tender."

"The cook just said that it is a quail that has been raised for three or four months, not a chicken. You don't know, the meat of this quail is much tenderer than chicken. Not only does it not use firewood, but it also tastes very good. The shopkeeper is also a Wonderful man, actually thought of using brine to make quail."

"Hearing what you said, I'm starting to worry about what to choose later. It's a pity that I can only choose one. If they sell them at a clearly marked price, I'll buy them all now."

"It smells so good~ I can drink three bowls of white rice just by smelling it, haha."

"I'm so hungry. I'm obviously too hungry, but I just don't want to move to another place."

"Who isn't. I originally planned to go to the opposite Chixiang Pavilion at noon to eat the roasted lamb kidneys that I have been thinking about, but the strange thing is that my stomach is growling now, and I just don't want to go to their house to have a quick meal."

Looking at the familiar faces and listening to what they said, Chi Chun and his son, who were standing at the window watching, were almost so angry that their heads were smoking.

Their Chixiang Pavilion is an old brand in Beijing. Many diners have grown up in the store from snacks. Let’s not talk about whether the food is good or not. The relationship of the past ten or twenty years will be gone.

Sure enough, they are flowing diners, and they can't keep them.

Since the opposite door opened for business, their Chixiang Pavilion has not had a single customer until now. Who will believe this?

This damned Chi Ming deliberately opened the restaurant opposite them, does that mean he wants to fight him?

Chi Chun gritted his teeth and waved to the shopkeeper behind him.

Soon, two people came out from Chi Xiangge, and hung a banner with black characters on a red background.

Today, all dishes at Chixiang Pavilion are [-]% off.

Not to mention, there are indeed a few people who are moved.

Several of them are old customers of Chixiang Pavilion, so they naturally know how much money can be saved behind the [-]% discount.

Lin Jijiu stroked his beard and shook his head. He has a very good nose. Just now he saw that old man Li Changqing eating in it without any image.

This shop called Chi Yan is definitely not bad in taste.

He wouldn't give up just for this mere discount.

Besides, he had heard his mother talking about it a few days ago, and he was quite curious about this young man.

"Grandpa, are you here too?"

Lin Jijiu was about to enter the door when he was stopped suddenly.

Seeing that they were still his three most proud disciples, they naturally smiled.

"Have you had lunch yet? How about together?"

It's just a meal, he can still afford it.

Lin Jijiu's words were in the hands of the three of them.

The four entered the door politely and happily.

However, when Lin Jijiu saw the price, he immediately stopped talking.

This peach blossom cake only cost a few taels of silver in other stores, but it actually costs 100 taels here.There is also this peach blossom porridge. You can buy a bowl of fragrant meat porridge for a few pennies at the stalls at the foot of the city gate wall.

But looking at the people around them all burying their heads in hard work, none of them disliked expensive.

Lin Jijiu reached out his hand to touch the still full purse, it would be fine if he was the only one to eat on weekdays.

The key is that he still has three behind him, three mouths, one at least 100 taels...

"First, three bowls of peach blossom porridge. Well, another plate of grilled lamb chops."

I went out for 600 taels in one breath.

Lin Jijiu felt weak in his legs, so he found a nearby table and sat down.

He glanced at Li Changqing not far away who had almost eaten, and felt so regretful that his stomach turned green.

You said it would have been better if he had come in an hour earlier.

Li Changqing also saw Lin Jijiu and the others at this time.

He was in a good mood, his face was ruddy, his body was warm, and even with a smile on his face, he walked over very satisfied.

"Old man Lin, you are here too. Every dish in this pool banquet tastes good. I suggest you try them all, especially the peach blossom wine. It lasts for a long time, and you will feel refreshed after drinking it. Haha, I finished eating, Just go one step ahead."

Li Chen was concentrating on drinking porridge, when he heard his grandfather's voice, he raised his head and called out to him respectfully.

In his impression, grandfather has always been a strict person.Especially for their generation, the requirements are quite strict.But today's grandfather has a layer of kindness all over his body, just like his grandmother, which makes him feel kind.

He thought his grandfather had come home to eat.

He remembered that in the morning, his grandfather specially asked the cook at home to prepare a whole lamb, saying that he wanted to eat roasted whole lamb at noon.

Li Changqing glanced at his grandson with a smile, and said sincerely: "Lin Jijiu invites you to dinner, so don't be polite to him, just order whatever you want. He is not a stingy person."

After saying this, regardless of Lin Jijiu's expression, he left in a good mood.

Originally, he wanted to talk to Chi Ming, but when he saw so many diners, he must have been busy cooking in the kitchen, so he simply gave up.

Since he opened the store in the capital, he is not in a hurry.

Lin Jijiu tried his best to suppress the twitching eyebrows.

Smiling and kindly said to the three of them: "He is right. Don't look at the three of you, eat quickly."

A mouthful of more than ten taels of silver is gone.

His heart, liver and spleen hurt.

No, he will discuss it with his wife when he returns home at night to see if he can give him some pocket money, and by the way, he will also reimburse the lunch meal.

The food in this pool banquet is really delicious.

Although I didn't eat braised pig's trotters, the sheep's trotters tasted good too.

After a busy day, Chi Ming simply closed the shop at night.

Making money is not his purpose, but the task of completing the recipe is.

But even so, the net profit in one day has reached 3 taels.Although it is still a little short of Wanjin, it should be achieved soon.

When the fat cook brought in the big pot with only half a pot of stewed soup left, everyone was a little disappointed.At first, I thought that there would not be too many diners on the first day anyway, and there would still be leftovers in this big pot of lo mei.But what they couldn't figure out was that there were more gourmets in this capital city than Tongjun Mansion, their noses were more sensitive, and the most important thing was that they were willing to spend money.

With the first one who spends a lot of money to buy stewed soup, there will be a second one.I heard that the pool banquet is not open at night, and everyone said that they would go back to eat bibimbap at night.Those who came later and didn't eat all followed suit and bought soup.

"Fortunately, there is still half a pot left, just enough to marinate chicken feet, duck necks, small intestines and pig blood."

He prepared chicken feet and duck necks in advance, and pig blood was not given to him by the butcher.

"Okay, master, then I'll start a fire and reheat the stewed soup." The fat cook quickly lit the fire with his hands and feet.

Sun Xi also silently started processing the ingredients for tonight.

He likes the atmosphere now.

From the beginning, cutting vegetables would cut your fingers, and now you can cut potato shreds into long, short and thin strips of the same thickness.The master said that his five senses are stronger than ordinary people, and he is a good material for a cook.

For this reason, he was secretly happy for a long time.

His mother once praised him like this, saying that his nose is more sensitive than ordinary people.Others can't eat what is put in the dish, but he can tell what seasoning is added as long as he eats it.

He agreed with what the master said, one must stand up before talking about revenge.Only by making himself really strong can he crush Sun Yuan and the others.

"Master, what are we going to do tonight?" The fat cook poked his head out from behind the stove.

"Let's eat Johnson's pilaf tonight." Chi Ming was processing pork bone marrow and cattle bone marrow, and was going to use the bone marrow to boil the base oil later.

Although beef is not easy to buy, this beef bone can be bought for some money.

Heat the detoxified walnut oil, stir fry the bone marrow in the hot oil, and finally make the desired oil after repeated refining.

"Master, does pilaf mean eating with your hands?" The fat cook scratched his head, a little puzzled. With so many people, making only one pot of pilaf would be too simple.

But when he smelled the thick aroma of oil in the air, he stopped talking immediately.

This oil is really fragrant, if you use it to fry rice, it might be delicious.

Johnson's Pilaf is actually a street food that Chi Ming had eaten in Hotan before.If it is true, the bone marrow needs to use the bone marrow of yaks and camels, but unfortunately it is not available here.

Johnson & Johnson's pilaf is just like the literal meaning, the ingredients and ingredients in it are very nourishing.

In addition to mutton, lamb kidneys, and wolfberry, there are also squab, old hen, ginseng, red dates, and quail eggs.

Both the squab and the old hen were boiled in marinated soup for more than an hour in advance.

Cut the mutton and lamb kidneys into thin slices, stir-fry in the oil just extracted, add broth when the frying is half-cooked, cover the rice directly on the golden thick soup, sprinkle with wolfberries, almonds, ginseng, Quail eggs, stew together for half an hour.

When the Johnson & Johnson pilaf comes out of the pot, the pig's blood, duck neck and the like have already been boiled and colored.

In front of everyone was a large plate of Johnson & Johnson pilaf, paired with a plate of spicy duck neck and chicken feet, they were quite satisfied.

After the meal, Chi Ming soaked himself comfortably in the big wooden barrel.

After a busy day and being in a burning kitchen, his underwear was already soaked.

As the weather slowly warms up, the daytime temperature also begins to warm up.

At first, Chi Ming felt that there was a big tail, and his back and stomach were quite warm.But when the weather was hot, he couldn't take it anymore.

Especially the waist area is stuffy and hot.

Thinking of the hot summer, Chi Ming felt powerless.

Originally, I had to endure wearing long trousers and long sleeves for the summer, and I had to wrap a big tail, so I felt an indescribable feeling of depression.

It seems that he has to hurry up and work hard, strive to improve his cultivation as soon as possible, and put his tail away.

In the dense water vapor, he seemed to see the figure of Xuanshu.

At first I thought it was my eyesight.

But when he looked again, his eyes widened involuntarily.

"When did you come in?" He must have seen his tail...

As if the secret on his body was suddenly discovered, Chi Ming's face slowly began to turn red.

He lowered his head and looked at his wet tail, which was hanging in the bathtub, like a stick, ugly and ugly, and he had the urge to dig a hole to escape.

"..."

Xuanshu didn't know how he got here.

He was obviously still playing chess with the mountain god last moment.

"Sorry, I'm going out first." Xuanshu quickly turned his face away.

The jade-like smooth back made his mouth dry for a while.

"Oh." Chi Ming said in a low voice.

In fact, if it was changed to before, the two men watched it as well.

But now, he just doesn't want the other party to see his wet tail.

After the people went out, Chi Ming didn't dare to delay, and immediately got up and put on his clothes. Anyway, he was almost done washing.

He had just put on his coat when the door was pushed in again.

Xuanshu frowned and walked straight towards him.

Just stopped one meter away from Chi Ming.

His eyes fell on Chi Ming's back.

Chi Ming's whole body was a little tense, and he couldn't help swallowing.

Could it be that he was actually seen just now?

Fortunately, he moved quickly and re-coiled his tail.

"Take off."

There was an undeniable chill in Xuanshu's voice.
