Ancient Foodie Survival Guide

The nobles in the palace wanted snails, and the people below had to send them immediately. They hurriedly picked up some very clean snails from the spring on the mountain and sent them into the palace.

After Jiang Shuyao had lunch in the imperial concubine palace, the snails were brought in, and by the way, the spices requested by Jiang Shuyao were brought into the palace from Xie Guogong's palace.

The snails that were sent in were all raised in mountain springs and washed repeatedly, and the snails would not be muddy out after being washed in water again. Jiang Shuyao asked people to soak the snails in salt water for a while, and let the snails spit mud for a while. Of course, if conditions permit, drip a few drops of oil and soak overnight is better.

After lunch, Jiang Shuyao talked to Concubine Lin for a while, and Concubine Lin went to take a nap.

Jiang Shuyao was bored. She was reading in the temple and thought of Xie Xun. Today, she is the closest place to Xie Xun's place.

I don't know what Xie Xun is doing, whether he's busy or not, whether he has a good lunch.

She held her chin in a daze, and suddenly a little **** ran over and whispered a few words to the big **** in the temple.

Jiang Shuyao heard the sound and looked towards them. When he turned his head, the eyes of the two happened to meet her.

The **** squeezed a flattering and kind smile at Jiang Shuyao, bowed and walked over, and whispered: "Madam, thank you, Master Xie, let Xiao Shunzi give you a message to ask you how you used your lunch. Master Xie also Said that if you stay in the palace until you are in the palace, then you will return to the palace together, and Master Xie will wait for you at the gate of the palace when you are on duty."

Asking about lunch must be an excuse, Jiang Shuyao thought, Xie Xun probably also thought of her.

"Lunch is very good," she replied, "I see."

The **** covered his mouth and smiled. For many years, I haven't seen this kind of silly newlywed couple, how sweet it is.

He smiled and said, "That's good, I'll let Xiao Shunzi go back and talk back. See if there is anything I want him to pass back."

Jiang Shuyao shook his head: "Nothing." Even if there were any, it would be embarrassing to let others pass on.

After Lin Guifei woke up, the two chatted about clothes and jewelry for a while, and they were sent away in the afternoon, and the snails in the dining room were soaked.

Concubine Lin Gui and Jiang Shuyao chatted for an afternoon. The first few moments of evasiveness were gone. Seeing that the time was almost up, she said to Jiang Shuyao: "How about you, really want to cook? Now that the clothes are soft, my aunt will reward you with some jewelry. rouge."

Jiang Shuyao stood up and said confidently: "Manny, don't underestimate me. If the snails I made are delicious, would you still reward them?"

"Reward." Looking at her bright and energetic appearance, Concubine Lin was delighted, "It depends on whether you have the ability to get this reward."

Jiang Shuyao retired and was invited to the dining room by the maid.

Concubine Lin is favored, and the dining room is much larger than the small kitchen in Xie Guogong's mansion, and the condiments and ingredients are all available.

Jiang Shuyao walked to the big basin of soaked snails. The tails of the snails had been cut clean at her request, so they could start cooking directly now.

Boil the processed snails in a pot first, add cooking wine to a boil, skim off the foam, and finally pour out and drain.

Boil a wok on a fierce fire, add oil, and heat the oil to 60% heat. Add garlic, tempeh, green onions, **** slices, etc. and sauté until the top of the material meets the oil to fully stimulate the aroma, then add the drained snails and turn them. fry. When the escargot was fried in the pan, it made a crisp sound. With the slamming of the pan, the aroma of the raw material choked into the snails during the frying process, and the dining room was instantly filled with a fresh and rich taste. The first smell is a bit weird, but after a few more smells, it feels good.

Add water for three minutes, let the soup further immerse the escargot meat, then add pepper, perilla leaves, salt, cooking wine and continue to stir fry. Fried snails, perilla leaves are the soul, which can perfectly remove the muddy smell in the snails, and increase the freshness and fragrance. Finally, stir-fry with high heat to allow the screws to better absorb the soup and oil and gas. At the same time, the juice will be collected. After being out of the pot, the tail of the escargot will **** in the thick and salty soup.

Fried snails are a heavy-tasting dish. Jiang Shuyao did not show any mercy when he was cutting the ingredients. The oil was enough. The fried snails were shiny and shiny, and the soup was thick. The black snails were piled on a white porcelain plate. Xiaoshan, to the palace people who have never eaten snails, looks really strange, but the fragrance is too strong and attractive, so they can't help but ignore the strange taste of snails, want to try what it is like.

When it arrived at the table, Concubine Lin's reaction was much greater than that of them.

She frowned tightly, her face was stiff, she shrank her neck and hid, pinched her nose and said in disgust, "You are really fried."

Jiang Shuyao said helplessly: "It doesn't smell bad."

Concubine Lin raised her eyebrows, even though her expression was distorted, she was still very beautiful.

She hesitated to let go of her hand, and as soon as she let it go, a strong fragrance penetrated into her nose. It is very fresh, with a pungent and spicy taste, and a soft aniseed medicinal aroma in the spicy.

She tentatively walked forward, and saw the fried snails on the table, her expression of disgust was put back on her face: "How do you want to eat this, eat shells?"

Jiang Shuya picked up a bamboo stick and picked out some tender meat from the snails: "Eat meat. But don't eat the tail part." Although the snails are raised in mountain springs, you can still eat them without eating them.

Now that the two of them had a bet, and Jiang Shuyao was fried, someone had to taste it.

Concubine Lin's eyes swept around on the **** in the palace, followed by a finger at the eunuch: "You come and try." After that, she felt unkind and added, "There is a reward."

Jiang Shuyao became even more helpless.

The **** was originally from a poor family, and he had been in the palace for so many years. He was not a delicate person.

He bowed his head and walked to the table, kneeling down respectfully, touching his head and saying: "Xie Niangniang, Madam for food."

This scene is the same as giving poison, a palace lady brought a porcelain plate over, picked a snail and put it on, and then brought it to the eunuch.

The **** raised his head and learned the movements of Jiang Shuyao to pick out the tender meat from the snail.

The soup was thick and hung on the snail meat with a hint of spicy oil on it. The spicy and strong fragrance spreads over the surface, which is a taste he has never experienced before. It is rich in layers, and the freshness and the spicyness are perfectly neutralized. It seems that all the fragrance is incorporated into the small snail meat.

Originally, he was still racking his brains a moment ago about how to use words if it was unpalatable, but now he suddenly realized that he didn't seem to need that euphemism.

Jiang Shuyao once told him not to eat the tail, so he just smashed the snail meat lightly between his teeth. The snail meat was very tender, but with tenacity in the tenderness. Just as he imagined, the rich and complex taste was all incorporated into the small. In the small snail meat, it is extremely delicious, extremely spicy, with a hint of sweetness and sweetness that has a long back rhyme.

Obviously there is only a little bit, but a strong fragrance bursts out in the mouth in an instant. It is fresh and refreshing, and spicy. If there is wine at this time, eat a bite of snail meat and drink a bitter and sweet sake aftertaste. happy.

"How is it?" Concubine Lin asked.

The **** hurriedly walked out of the trance of savoring the aftertaste, and said: "Returning to the imperial concubine, great!" Unfortunately, he was stupid and couldn't describe how well he could give the praise he deserved.

Jiang Shuyao expected this answer, but didn't respond much, but Lin Guifei couldn't believe it: "Really?"

Without the eunuch's answer, she also knew how the **** dared to answer lies, but such a firm "excellent" still made her unable to believe it. She walked quickly to the table and looked at the plate of fried snails.

When I walked in, the fragrance was spicy, and the spicy sweetness became more intense.

Seeing Jiang Shuyao looking at her with a smile, she took a breath, gritted her teeth and said: "Bring the lottery, I have a taste."

Naturally, she didn't need to pick the snail meat. The maid picked it out for her, and she took it, hesitantly put it in her mouth.

She has lived in the palace for a long time, and it has been a long time since she had eaten strong flavored food, let alone the taste of chili.

She was stunned by this eating.

When the snail meat falls on the tip of the tongue, the spicy taste first blooms in the mouth. It is a bit painful and a bit numb, but it is more of a stimulating scent that makes people secrete saliva, followed by the freshness of the snail meat, which is soaked in the soup. Rich, with a sweet and sweet base, it is more and more vivid, spicy, spicy, fresh and sweet. All kinds of flavors invaded every part of the mouth in an instant. Before chewing, she couldn't help but swallow the snails. .

Chewing the snail meat again, this taste is very wonderful, tender and firm, the elastic teeth are chewy, a small lump of meat, the more you chew, the more fragrant you chew, the more obvious the flavor of the soup is every time you chew, and because it is sweet spring The snails raised are still sweet. After chewing it carefully and swallowing it, I only felt completely uncomfortable. It evoked gluttons, but it was only so small, which is enough.

Jiang Shuya knew her thoughts just by looking at her expression, and suppressed a smile and said, "How?"

Concubine Lin said no longer, she reached out her hand to explore the pan, the maid quickly picked one for her, and waved her hand: "I'll do it myself."

She took a snail in her hand, it was really strange, why such an ugly little thing could be so delicious.

Jiang Shuyao reminded at the right time: "There is soup in the snails, **** on the tail, and then **** out the snail meat, this way of eating is the most wonderful."

Her simple sentence made Concubine Lin swallow unconsciously.

She tentatively put the snail to her mouth, and she was taken aback when her lips touched the snail, and the action was too unsightly. But it was too late. The delicious soup on the snail shell had already made her react subconsciously. With a slight suck, the rich and spicy soup suddenly poured into the mouth, not much, but enough to make the taste buds wake up instantly.

The soup is fresher than the snail meat. It seems that all the essence is integrated into this small bite of the soup. It seems to be hot and spicy, and it seems that the rich aroma is just coming out of the pot, which is spicy and spicy. The taste of umami is so delicious that people can't get enough of it.

She couldn't hold back, and took another sip, making a "sizzling" noise, which was really indecent, but at this time she couldn't think of it anymore.

Jiang Shuyao saw that she had sucked several snails one after another, and then he reminded her loudly, "Manny, how is it, is it worth the reward?"

Concubine Lin froze for a moment, and soon stretched out again, with a smile on her eyebrows, and said very cheerfully, "Reward!" Then she added, "Now you have convinced me."

As she said, she kept on hand: "In the future, the Lin family's food business will help me, so don't worry about King Kang." She sighed, "This is the first time since I entered the palace that this is the first time that the Lin family's business has gone to the Sage. Love, you can stand up in the future, don't let me down."

Jiang Shuyao didn't expect things to be such a development, she was surprised: "Holy Master?"

"Naturally." Concubine Lin said, "Don't worry, this palace does what it says."

She wiped her fingertips, regaining her lazy look: "But it's not now, it smells too strong, wait until I take a shower before going to the sage."

Jiang Shuyao nodded, thinking about waiting for a while to go back and ask what happened to Xie Xun.

Concubine Lin looked up at the sky and said, "It's getting late, you can go back first."

Jiang Shuyao thought that Xie Xun was still waiting for her at the palace gate, so he bowed out.

Not long after she went out, Lin Guifei swept away her lazy look just now, refreshed, and started to snail snails again. This time, she was finally relieved of her snails. She was screaming and squeezed so hard that she sucked the snails directly. When you reach your mouth, you can taste the soup while chewing the meat.
