Dream Journey from Shaolin

Chapter 31 Chef Ginger Appears

"The Taoist is so mysterious, how did you become a Taoist?"

Jiang Ming directly ignored the Confucian system, jokingly, the writing in this world is different from his original world, what books should he read?And there is also a merit test, aren't you embarrassing me, Fat Tiger?Just go through the pain of the college entrance examination once!
Besides, the Confucian needs ups and downs in the officialdom, which is obviously not in line with his character, or the Taoist sounds more carefree,
Therefore, Jiang Ming still wants to see the part of the Taoist. Does he still have a role to play?

"It was because when I was born, a Taoist master happened to pass by and found that I was talented in cultivating Taoism, so he accepted me as a disciple. Because I was still young at that time, my parents didn't want me to go to the mountains.
So since I was able to start practicing Taoism at the age of six, Master would spend two months every year visiting my home specifically to teach me Taoist exercises and various basic knowledge to guide me in my practice! "

Yan Wushuang took back her package from the guard, rummaged through something, and replied,
Come on, it seems that there is nothing to play. The age of this body alone is obviously not up to the standard. In addition, there is a lot of professional knowledge to be learned, and it cannot be learned in a short time. At present, it is still practical. The most promising aspect of development,
At the very least, he believes that as long as he obtains the martial art skills, he should not be able to reach the eighth-rank leather realm in a short time. It is unwise to look far away.

"Give!"

Just as Jiang Ming was sighing that his dreams were shattered, Yan Wushuang handed a small box in front of Jiang Ming,
"what is this?"

Jiang Ming took the box and asked,

Yan Wushuang stretched out his hand to open the box and said with a smile:

"This is my favorite, Xu Ji's pastry, for you!"

Jiang Ming's eyes lit up immediately. After eating barbecue for two months, he could finally change his taste.
"It's delicious. I didn't expect that you, a boy, would like to eat such sweet cakes. Don't girls usually like them?"

Jiang Ming took out a piece of pastry from the box and threw it into his mouth, jokingly said,
Yan Wushuang froze first, then blushed slightly and said:
"Although I am a man, I have always preferred sweets since I was a child!"

Jiang Ming took another piece out of the box and threw it into his mouth, patted Yan Wushuang on the shoulder and said:
"Don't take it seriously, I'm just kidding, I actually like sweets too!"

"Okay, when I get back to the county, I'll treat you to dinner!"

When Yan Wushuang heard Jiang Ming's words, his eyes turned into crescents, obviously very happy.
Jiang Ming looked at Yan Wushuang who was smiling like a flower, and subconsciously said:

"Brother Yan, if I didn't see your Adam's apple, I would have thought you were a woman disguised as a man, and you are so pretty!"

Hearing Jiang Ming's words, Yan Wushuang trembled in fright, subconsciously touched his wrist, which was wearing a silver bracelet engraved with complicated patterns, and replied a little stiffly:
"Brother Jiang really knows how to joke. How could I be a woman disguised as a man? You know, in Zhongling County, I also have the title of the most beautiful man!"

Jiang Ming, who came to his senses, knew that he had accidentally slipped his mouth, and hurriedly said:

"Just kidding, I just like to joke, brother Yan, don't mind!"

Yan Wushuang quickly waved his hands to indicate that he was fine, then turned his head and shouted at the middle-aged bearded man:

"Uncle Wang, is dinner ready? I'm hungry!"

"I'm sorry, young master, you and Brother Jiang may have to wait a while, Xiao Liu who can cook is gone, and none of us are good at cooking!"

At this time, Jiang Ming always felt a kind of honeyed embarrassment, wandering between himself and Yan Wushuang, when he heard Uncle Wang's words, he immediately lifted his spirits, got up and shouted:

"I'll come, I can cook, I've been able to cook since I was a child!"

Seeing Jiang Ming running towards Uncle Wang and the others as if fleeing, Yan Wushuang burst out laughing,
Over the years, in order to keep his secrets, he has spent most of his time in the mansion, rarely going out, and basically has no friends.
And the guards and servants in the mansion, because of the disparity in status, have always maintained a respectful attitude towards him.

It was the first time he met someone like Jiang Ming who was about the same age as him but did not keep a distance because of his identity.
He could feel that when Jiang Ming talked to him, his eyes were like looking at an ordinary friend, and he would joke with him. The most important thing was that when he was most desperate, Jiang Ming appeared like a miracle and rescued him. got off him,

"I think Xiao Liu just washes the meat and cooks it in the pot every time!"

"Yes, but it seems that some salt should be put in!"

"Then how much?"

When Jiang Ming came in front of Uncle Wang and other guards, several people were scratching their heads and discussing their experience in cooking.

For these elders who have never been in the kitchen, it is okay to let them chop people with swords, but let them study the cooking temperature and how to put seasonings, it is really a bit too embarrassing for them.

"Has the bear been cleaned?"

Jiang Ming took the kitchen knife from Uncle Wang, but he didn't see Xiongrou and asked,

"It's been washed, it's by the stream!"

All the guards said in unison,

Although Jiang Ming is not very old, he is strong and has saved the lives of these guards, so these guards are more respectful to Jiang Ming.
"Go and get it, and then you can go over and wait to eat!"

Hearing Jiang Ming's words, Uncle Wang was a little embarrassed and said:

"I didn't expect Brother Jiang to know how to cook at such a young age. I'm really ashamed!"

Jiang Ming waved his hand,

He has been eating barbecue for the past two months. After eating for a few days, he can't poop. Now that he has tools such as pots and pans, he can finally change his taste.

He took out his usual seasonings from the package one by one and put them on the stones beside the campfire. These seasonings were basically taken from the Huotou Army before he left.

There are acyl (something similar to vinegar in ancient times), salt, plum (in ancient times to remove fishy smell and extract acid), minced ginger (dried and ground ginger), pepper and cornel powder,
That's right, the cornel here is the cornel in Wang Wei's "September [-]th Recalling Shandong Brothers", in "There is one less person who planted cornel all over the place".
Because in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, there was no such thing as pepper, so Jiang Ming, who was not fond of spicy food, paid attention to the plant of dogwood.
Because cornel is not only a plant, but also used for seasoning, it is also called "Yuejiao" and can be used as a substitute for pepper.

Finally, Jiang Ming took out his little half-gourd of homemade white wine, sighed, and put it in the seasoning, he needed the white wine to remove the fishy smell,
When Uncle Wang and others brought over the peeled and washed black bear, Jiang Ming stepped forward with a kitchen knife and started his performance.

First use the thick fat of the bear body to make a pot full of bear oil, then fry bear steak, stir-fry bear meat in spicy sauce, grill bear paw, grill bear skewer, stew bear bone soup, fat bear slices in sour soup, and bear ear in cold sauce .
If it weren't for the seasoning and tools that limited his output, today, he would show people like Yan Wushuang what it means to eat a bear 36!
