Chapter 1335 This is a special dish
Deputy Envoy Das was standing next to Prince Arnold and couldn't help but crane his neck to take a look. "Prince, is there only one serving of this dish?"
The prince smiled and said, "This is the Thousand Silk Palm Treasure made of a thousand chickens and a thousand fishes. Lord Shao, explain it to Prince Arnold."
"Yes, Prince."
Shao Yunduan stood up and saluted, then explained how to make the dish. At the end, he said calmly: "All the leftovers are still piled up in the kitchen and have not been processed. If Prince Arnold and Deputy Envoy Das don't believe it, you can go to the kitchen to see for yourself. But it's best to go tonight, because the leftovers can't be wasted. After tonight, they will be rewarded to the kitchens of the servants to cook and share."
"Although our Great Qin is vast and rich in resources, we have always advocated against waste. Wasting food will bring bad luck. Therefore, I only made this dish. Please ask the prince and Deputy Envoy Das to taste it."
A dish made from a thousand chickens and a thousand fishes, it doesn't make sense for each person to cook a portion and serve it to each person. How can this be so extravagant and wasteful?
There was a shortage of material resources in the Qingdi territory. If there was a famine year when the grass and water were not fertile enough, or if there was a winter blizzard that froze countless cattle and sheep to death, life would be extremely difficult.
Therefore, they cherish food more than anyone else and cannot stand its waste.
They were speechless after Shao Yunduan's explanation.
Of course, they would not do something like running into the kitchen and checking each chicken or fish for leftovers. That would be too cheap.
Since Shao Yunduan dared to say so, it meant that the kitchen was not afraid of their inspection at all.
The Qingdi delegation was speechless, and even the Fourth Prince, the Third Prince and others looked at each other in bewilderment.
That, that’s it?
If you think about it carefully, you really can't find any fault.
Prince Arnold had no choice but to pick up his chopsticks and reluctantly tasted two bites of this treasure in his palm. He forced a smile and nodded: "It tastes really good! I wonder if the other two dishes can be served too?"
Shao Yunduan looked at the prince, and the prince nodded slightly at him.
He said, "Okay."
The person who served the dishes this time was still the same eunuch in charge, but this time he was obviously much faster. He almost ran in and quickly placed a plate of small square-shaped, golden fried snacks in front of Prince Arnold.
Shao Yunduan: "Prince, please taste it. This is the Ice and Fire Golden Cake."
Everyone: “???” What the hell?
Prince Arnold looked at Shao Yunduan doubtfully, picked up a piece with chopsticks, and put it into his mouth under the gaze of countless eyes.
One bite——
"Crack!" With a crisp sound, Prince Arnold screamed in surprise, "There's ice in here!"
"Prince Arnold has good eyesight," Shao Yunduan felt that he was complimenting him particularly sincerely, and explained the dish with a smile.
Many people present were snickering, looking at the aggrieved yet submissive expressions of Prince Arnold and Deputy Envoy Das, and they felt inexplicably happy!
Oh, this dish is absolutely amazing!
It's both hot and cold!
Deputy Envoy Das was a little annoyed: "This, this can also be called a dish? Isn't the Qin Dynasty too perfunctory?"
Shao Yunduan: "In our Great Qin, this is a dish, a specialty!"
Especially justified.
Deputy Envoy Das: “.”
I feel a little guilty for no apparent reason. What's going on?
Other ministers all supported him.
