Chapter 8

Pour the last few drops of honey into the sorghum rice. Gu Zheng is very relieved.

Sorghum rice is ripe. Sorghum belongs to coarse grain. It tastes ordinary when steamed. With honey, it can enhance the taste of sorghum rice, increase the flavor and make the meal more delicious.

"What are you doing?"

As soon as he opened the sliding door of the kitchen, Gu Zheng found that the three were standing behind the door, looking furtive.

"Well, Gu Zheng, if it's not good, I'll be anxious to death if I don't starve!"

Du Yang said in a hurry, while the other two nodded fiercely. They didn't want to go out. They kept smelling the smell of ancient cooking, but they tortured them.

"It's ready. You sit at the table and I'll serve the dishes!"

Gu Zheng nodded gently. The three immediately rushed to the table when they heard the speech. Gu Zheng was stunned by the speed. They had never reacted like this before.

"Wash your hands and eat!"

Carrying the black chicken soup, Gu Zheng said again. The three raised their hands at the same time. Wang Tao said bitterly: "when you cook, we have washed our hands three times. We know your rules and are waiting to eat!"

There are many ancient rules. When he cooks, others are not allowed to enter the kitchen or help. He must wash his hands before eating, and he can't speak loudly during eating, etc.

Although there are many rules, because it is delicious, several people are still looking forward to the delicious food made by Gu Zheng.

"Wait, right away!"

Seeing that the three hands are really clean, Gu Zheng doesn't mention it anymore. He brings out the delicious food one by one. The tableware of Gu Zheng is Jingdezhen porcelain, which is specially ordered tableware. Gu Zheng doesn't know how to burn it, but most of these tableware are exported abroad for use in famous foreign hotels.

Gu Zheng's set was ordered by his father.

Three dishes and one soup. Each person has a small bowl. In the bowl is slightly golden sorghum rice. Sorghum rice emits a faint sweetness, which makes people's appetite open.

"How fragrant!"

The basin cover of the black chicken soup was opened first, and the three people sucked their noses together. The soup was the earliest one. It was stewed for two hours. The nutrition of the black chicken meat and wild ginseng were integrated into the thick soup. It had been covered by the cover before. Now it is opened, and the accumulated fragrance is sprayed out in an instant, which attracted the exclamation of the three people.

"How beautiful!"

Then, the fried wild lotus seeds were opened. After frying the wild lotus seeds, Gu Zheng placed a heart shape. Two green leaves were under his heart, as if holding up the green heart. Several mountain mushrooms were dotted around the wild lotus seeds, which did not conflict at all, but made the color richer.

Ten prawns were placed in a circle. All the prawns were treated, and the shrimp line was removed. There were several wild lotus seeds in the middle of the prawns. The body of the prawns was still a little light black. When the prawns were about to mature, Gu used a straw to pour soy sauce into the body, so that the prawns could fully absorb the flavor of soy sauce without affecting their freshness.

Finally, the honey chicken is opened, which is made of black chicken wings, legs and some chicken breast meat.

The golden chicken wings and drumsticks were placed in a crescent shape. As soon as the cover was opened, they accumulated under the cover for a long time, and the strongest fragrance rushed out completely. This time, Gu Zheng couldn't help sucking his nose. If several people weren't there, he wanted to take a piece of it first.

"Are you ready to eat?"

Wang Tao swallowed his saliva and whispered. Before Gu Zheng could answer, Du Yang and Zhao Yongkui stretched out the jade like bamboo chopsticks and picked up a chicken wing.

"Delicious, really delicious!"

Biting the chicken wings, they made a vague sound in their mouths. Seeing that the chicken wings were gone, Wang Tao hurriedly picked up a small chicken leg. Gu Zheng looked at them with a smile, shook his head, gently picked up a cut chicken leg and put it into his mouth.

Gu Zheng's eyes suddenly opened. The chicken was fat but not greasy. It was scattered like melting. Gu Zheng couldn't help chewing the sweet chicken. His mouth was full of saliva stimulated by the smell. Soon, the whole piece of chicken was swallowed by him.

"Delicious!"

Gu Zheng couldn't help saying. He knew it was delicious just now, but he didn't taste it. The taste was also unexpected. He had eaten a lot of good things before, but none of them had such a taste.

"It's just ordinary, but it's valuable to you!"

The sound of the spirit suddenly appeared. Gu Zheng quickly picked up another piece of chicken and asked, "I've eaten and made a lot of delicious food, but I've never made such delicious food. Why?"

"Any food, ingredients are the most important. Even if there is a clever cooking technique, the ingredients can't do it, and you can't make a real delicious food. According to your custom, if a food is rated as ten, that's four points in ingredients and four points in cooking!"

"You're right. I think the proportion of ingredients should be higher. How can you become four ingredients, four cooking and two points?"

While eating, Gu Zheng asked, the chicken is delicious, and the sorghum rice is not bad. The honey he added to the sorghum rice is a stroke of God. It not only completely changed the taste of sorghum rice, but also made the sorghum rice more lubricating and comfortable to eat.

Of course, the raw materials of sorghum rice are also very important. Gu Zheng knows that if it is replaced with other sorghum rice, it is not sorghum rice that has reached the second-class evaluation, and there is absolutely no such taste.

"Your food ingredients are too poor. In the flood plain, an excellent natural food without any cooking is more delicious than anything you have. As for the remaining two points, cultivation can enhance cooking skills and enhance the level of food materials. The higher the cultivation is, the better the food is. The food made by Lord tie Xian is famous in the flood plain!"

Before Gu Zheng spoke, Qi Ling said again: "for example, this time, if you didn't have honey of ordinary quality, you couldn't have such a good effect. Although the chicken you chose was not polluted and had eaten some inferior ingredients, it didn't reach honey of ordinary quality. At most, it tastes better. It's absolutely not so attractive!"

"I see. You're right. Without honey, this honey chicken will never have such a taste, even if other materials are inferior!"

This time, Gu Zheng didn't refute Qi Ling's words. He was a cook. He knew the role of honey in this. No wonder tiexian would grade the ingredients. The difference between each level was really great. Only the black chicken with ordinary ingredients honey became so delicious. Gu Zheng looked forward to the ingredients collected by tiexian for the first time.

According to Qi Ling, there are many collections of tiexian, but they are all of high-level. The excellent Ti ran ingredients are more delicious than any existing food without cooking. I really don't know how delicious the food made of high-level ingredients should be.

"Finished, anything else?"

Gu Zheng was thinking. He suddenly saw that he was staring at his three pairs of eyes. During his communication with Qi Ling, they ate all the three dishes and one soup on the table, and there was no rice left in the three people's bowl.
