Chapter 15: Food Sharing in the Imperial College
Shen Zhaonian thought about it and decided to give two pieces of ribs to everyone present.
Fortunately, my daughter always prepares a large amount for him, otherwise there wouldn’t be enough to share.
As for clay pot rice, others can forget about it.
He wants to savor it slowly.
After thanking Shen Zhaonian, the officials of the Ministry of Revenue lowered their heads and began to eat the ribs. Their impatient looks completely lost their usual noble and elegant demeanor.
Chen Huazheng specially uses pork ribs to make this dish. The ribs have a thinner meat layer and a more tender texture.
The spareribs are crispy, tender and refreshing, with not only the fragrance of osmanthus but also a hint of sweetness.
The unique fragrance of osmanthus permeates into the meat. When you take a bite, the fragrance seems to flow between your lips and teeth.
It is sweet, sour and fresh, and not greasy.
The taste is simply amazing!!
The colleagues finished the two pieces of ribs in their bowls and smacked their lips.
He looked at Shen Zhaonian who was eating happily, and then looked at the food in front of him, and felt complicated for a moment.
Not only did eating two pieces of spare ribs not satisfy my craving, but it actually whetted my appetite.
Oh my God, how can I live like this? !

In the Hanlin Academy, Shen Keting was also eating the lunch sent from home.
Jiang Cheng relied on his thick skin to get a few pieces of sweet-scented osmanthus spare ribs and half a bowl of clay pot rice from Chen Keting.
The spare ribs soaked in sugar osmanthus juice are soft, tender and crispy, with a sweet and sour taste and a hint of floral fragrance. They are so delicious that you almost want to swallow them.
The rich fat in the sausage has seeped into the rice, and the rice and fat have merged together. When you chew it gently, you can smell the aroma of the rice with the aroma of the meat, and the aroma of the meat with the aroma of the rice.
Jiang Cheng gave a fair evaluation, "The fourth girl is simply a genius."
If food could be included in the imperial examination, Shen Huazheng would undoubtedly be the top scorer.
Shen Keting naturally agreed with this statement. His sister was the smartest and most beautiful woman in the world.
The two looked at each other and continued to eat.

In the cafeteria of the Imperial College, Xue Cong looked at today's meal with little interest.
He casually ordered a meal and was about to find a seat when he suddenly heard someone shouting -
"Ziyi, there's a seat here."
Xue Cong looked up and saw that they were the two brothers Shen Kesi and Shen Keheng.
In the past, he was not very familiar with the Shen brothers, and at most they would just say hello when they met.
I didn't expect them to call me.

Xue Cong sat down next to Shen Kesi with plain noodles in his hand and smiled at the two brothers: "Bo Yan, Zhong Yu, I'm glad I met you. It's hard to find a seat at this time."
Shen Keheng glanced at Xue Cong's plain noodles, "Ziyi, is this all you eat?"
The three of them originally had an average relationship and would at most say hello when they met.
The last time Shen Kesi wanted to find two ancient books, Xue Cong lent the only copy he had to Shen Kesi after learning about it. Only then did the Shen brothers become familiar with Xue Cong.
Xue Cong nodded: "I looked around and there was really nothing I wanted to eat, so I just bought some plain noodles."
Shen Keheng was very enthusiastic, "Ziyi, do you want to try our food?"
Shen Kesi also smiled and said, "Yes, you won't be full if you only eat that. Let us share some with you."
Xue Cong was about to refuse, but when he looked up, he saw the Shen brothers taking out clay pot rice and sweet-scented osmanthus pork ribs from the food boxes, and the aroma wafted towards him.
"Is this osmanthus... spareribs?"
Although people in Daliang know that osmanthus is edible, every time the osmanthus flowers are in bloom, there will always be people who harvest them, dry them in the shade, pick out impurities and store them in a sealed container.
After processing, it can be used to make tea and wine.
Osmanthus flowers can also be used to make osmanthus cake, but no one has ever linked osmanthus flowers with meat.
In a flash, Xue Cong thought of the chicken rolls and rice balls made by Shen Huazheng, as if to verify his guess——
"Ziyi, this is sweet-scented osmanthus spareribs and clay pot rice."
Shen Keheng's face was full of pride, "Today's meal was made by my little sister, do you want to try it?"
The mansion had previously delivered meals to Shen Kesi and Shen Keheng, but later they found it too troublesome and stopped doing so.
During this period, the two brothers started to eat the meals sent from home again. Now the cooking skills of the cooks in the Shen Mansion have improved by leaps and bounds, and the food they make is much more delicious than that in the cafeteria.
Moreover, sometimes you can eat meals cooked by Shen Huazheng herself.
This is such a blessing for students who study hard every day!
Xue Cong took a look at the clay pot rice and sweet-scented osmanthus pork ribs on the table. These two novel dishes were so delicious and appetizing that they made him salivate.
"Then I would like to thank you both in advance."
Shen Kesi brought an empty bowl, gave Xue Cong some clay pot rice, and placed the osmanthus flower row in the middle of the table.
Xue Cong picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus pork ribs and was stunned the moment he took a bite.
The combination of sweet and sour, and the fragrance of osmanthus permeates the crispy and tender meat.
Chew gently, the aroma of meat mixed with the fragrance of flowers flows between your lips and teeth, fresh and sweet, leaving a lingering fragrance in your mouth.
I didn’t expect that besides being used for viewing and brewing wine and tea, osmanthus can also be used in cooking, and…
It can also be made so delicious.
Xue Cong's mind suddenly flashed that bright and pretty face...
Sweet osmanthus intoxicates autumn, and its fragrance is unforgettable in the world.
Xue Cong and Shen Keheng were still eating sweet-scented osmanthus spareribs, but Shen Kesi had already started eating the clay pot rice.
The clay pot rice absorbed the rich sauce, and each grain of rice was moist, fresh, fragrant, dense and delicious.
Take a bite, the mellow taste is mixed with a subtle salty fragrance, which is endless aftertaste.
The sausage tastes lightly of wine and is moderately salty and sweet.
The bacon is fat but not greasy, the fat part is crystal clear, and the more you chew it, the more delicious it becomes.
Thinking of the words of the boy who delivered the meal, Shen Kesi picked up another piece of rice crust which was called the "soul of clay pot rice".
The rice crust is golden in color, crispy but not burnt.
If you take a light bite, it will make a series of crisp sounds.
Seeing that Shen Kesi was eating so happily, Shen Keheng and Xue Cong also reacted and started eating the clay pot rice.
The clay pot rice has a delicate and rich taste, is soft and chewy.
Crispy rice crust, soft and glutinous rice, tender and juicy meat and special sauce, the full taste and unique aroma are truly delicious.
Once you take a bite, you can't stop.
