Chapter 570 Stunning
Nangong Yixian looked at the various kinds of food on the table and felt like he was being dazzled.
After each dish was served, the palace servants would introduce it.
Steamed pomfret, blanched pork with broth, stir-fried crab with ginger and scallion, baked lobster in soup, baked prawns with pepper, braised pigeon, and duck…
Nangong Yixian prided himself on being knowledgeable, but many of these foods were things he had never even heard of.
Not to mention eating.
He was extremely grateful that he did not turn down the task assigned to him by his father and His Majesty this time, otherwise he would have missed out on so many delicious foods.
As Nangong Yixian thought about it, he stretched out his chopsticks towards the dishes on the table.
Let’s have a good meal tonight, and then make a detailed plan when we return to the inn and arrange the next food itinerary.
Nangong Yixian picked up a piece of squab with chopsticks, dipped it in the sauce, brought it to his mouth, and took a light bite.
I don’t know what cooking method was used, but the skin of the pigeon is very crispy and it makes a "crunching" sound when you bite it.
When you bite deeper, you can taste the tender and juicy meat inside.
As you chew it, the salty and sweet juice will dance in your mouth.
Prince An was also amazed by the Overlord Duck. Thanks to Chen Huazheng, he got to taste many ways of eating duck meat.
But this was the first time he had seen the Tyrant Duck behave like this.
The various types of duck meat I have tasted before are just cooked in different ways.
It can even be said that although there were various delicacies on the table, the appearance of the Overlord Duck still overwhelmed the others and won everyone's praise.
When the palace servants served the red-scorched duck to the table, Prince An's eyes lit up, but like everyone else, he thought that the duck meat would not be much different from what he usually ate.
But when the palace servant gently cut the duck noodles with a knife, a rich food aroma suddenly came out.
When everyone looked closely, they discovered that there was something special about this duck meat.
Different from ordinary duck meat, this Overlord Duck actually contains a variety of ingredients, including mung beans, chestnuts, lotus seeds, lilies, ham, shiitake mushrooms and other fillings.
Just looking at it makes people salivate.
Prince An smelled the fragrant aroma and couldn't help but pick up a piece of duck meat with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.
The duck meat is tender and smooth, the lotus seeds are soft and fragrant, the lilies are fragrant and delicious, the ham is plump and delicious, and the flower mushrooms are crispy, tender and sweet...
As you chew, the mellow aroma of the duck meat and the complex aroma of the ingredients explode in your mouth at the same time, and your tongue is instantly amazed by the rich taste.
Shen Keting swallowed the duck meat and couldn't help but praise: "This Overlord Duck is indeed delicious, the duck meat is tender and juicy, and the various fillings hidden in the meat also add a different flavor to this dish."
This dish is cooked in a unique way. When you take a bite, the duck meat and the various ingredients inside are perfectly blended, leaving an endless aftertaste and a lingering fragrance in your mouth.
Shen Keheng also echoed: "That's right, although all the food on the table is delicious, this overbearing duck shocked me the most."
It was the first time he tasted duck cooked in this way. No wonder the name was so domineering.
If you taste it carefully, you can smell the aroma of meat, mushrooms, beans, lily and ham intertwined together, it is really delicious.
Shen Kesi looked at Shen Huazheng: “Zheng’er, this dish must have taken a lot of effort.”
Shen Huazheng swallowed the duck meat in her mouth: “Yes, it takes two or three hours to make this dish.”
The production process of the Overlord Duck is complicated and sophisticated.
The first and most important step is to debone a whole duck and then stuff the duck's belly with more than a dozen carefully prepared ingredients.
Then it goes through multiple processes such as coloring, frying, and steaming, and finally a dish of Overlord Duck with excellent color, aroma and taste is presented.
It can be said that every link embodies the chef's hard work and wisdom.
No step can be missing.
After hearing what Shen Huazheng said, the Shen brothers hadn’t spoken yet, and another palace servant came to serve the dishes.
The palace servants placed the stew pots in front of everyone, opened the lids swiftly, and then left.
Everyone at the table was paying attention to the food in the stew pot, which turned out to be a blooming tofu petal.
The tofu that used to break easily when touched is now carefully carved into strips by the chef.
Under the gentle ripples of the slightly yellow soup, these snow-white tofu shreds look like blooming white chrysanthemums.
It also looks like a huge dandelion, slowly spreading in the slightly yellow soup.
The pure white and slightly yellow color of the full cup complement each other nicely, making it particularly attractive.
Mo Zhishan stared at the tofu petals in the stew pot, his heart filled with amazement.
Tofu is a delicate substance and will break if you are not careful.
Now it has been cut into petals as thin as hair, layered one after another, intricately.
It is really pleasing to the eye.
This shows how exquisite the chef's knife skills are.
Qin Jun also stared at the tofu petals floating quietly in the stew pot. What did the palace maid say was its name just now?
Oh, it’s called chrysanthemum tofu.
This name is indeed quite appropriate.
It’s just a chrysanthemum tofu.
