Chapter 18: Hot Pot is So Delicious



Soak Sichuan peppercorns, star anise, jujubes, and mushrooms in a small bowl of warm water. Set aside the soaking water and the other ingredients. Add a bowl of mountain spring water and a little fermented rice wine. Before the water boils, add green onions, a pinch of salt, and finally a small teaspoon of milk. This is how you can make the most delicious lamb soup.

Qin Zhenzhen swallowed her saliva.

[Add a wonderful sesame sauce, sesame paste, sesame oil, chives, and a little fermented bean curd, and mix it yourself to suit your taste.]

When eating lamb, there are three essential parts: the top of the head, located behind the neck, which should be sliced ​​thinly, ideally so that it won't fall off even if you stand upside down in a bowl. Also, the inner thigh of the lamb's hind leg should be sliced ​​into cucumber strips, and the crotch, located below the front leg, has different cuts and slightly different broiling methods.

[Mother can't eat spicy food right now, otherwise a beef hot pot would be great.]

When Qin Yuanhao heard about the different mutton hotpot, even though he was used to eating delicacies from land and sea, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva like Qin Zhenzhen.

[Put the lamb tail oil in the pot first, then start blanching the meat. Put a thin piece of lamb in the pot and blanch it for a few seconds. When it changes color, pick it up, dip it in the sesame sauce, and take a bite. It's incredibly satisfying.]

Finally, add vermicelli noodles, Chinese cabbage, and frozen tofu. Make sure every pore in the frozen tofu is fully opened before you pick it up. The pores are filled with sesame juice.

Qin Zhenzhen said she was hungry, but unfortunately when she called out, she heard only the crying of a baby.

The frightened Concubine Chen quickly took her back and took her back to the bedroom to feed her.

But what she was thinking was that tomorrow, she must have someone arrange one for her.

Qin Yuanhao outside was still standing there in a daze, looking at his empty arms.

It seems that Concubine Chen really can't hear the little princess's thoughts, otherwise how could she react so quickly.

He was quite curious at this moment.

From what my daughter said, it was very different from the hot pot he usually used.

Only the hemp juice made him feel hungry again after hearing about it, even though he couldn't eat today.

"Zhou Mian, take these dishes away. The Concubine Chen and I will be using hot pot today."

"Mutton is only considered good if it is sliced ​​thinly and can be placed in a bowl without falling over."

"And then there are all sorts of other condiments, like sesame paste, chives, and sesame oil..."

"I will personally prepare the seasoning today."

[Hey, I think I heard the Emperor talking about eating hot pot. Is hot pot a copper pot?]

【It turns out there's already this way of eating here! 】

I wonder if there's a beef hotpot that's spicy and numbing, and even more flavorful. That way, when I grow up, I won't have to worry about not having delicious food.

When Qin Yuanhao heard about beef hotpot, he immediately asked the imperial kitchen to research it.

"Zhou Mian, you go there yourself. Remember to pick the freshest and tenderest parts of the cabbage. The Concubine Chen will definitely like it. Bring some other fresh seasonal vegetables as well."

"I remember there's a Sichuan chef. Let him develop a spicy hot pot."

【Wow, Emperor Dad is awesome.】

Qin Yuanhao changed his mind and shouted towards the bedroom, completely disregarding the emperor's image, "My beloved, what dishes do you want to eat? Ask Zhou Mian to bring them."

Concubine Chen o(╯□╰)o

She is a woman who is still in her period. Aren’t you afraid that she will get angry?

Seeing that Concubine Chen didn't say anything, Qin Yuanhao thought that she was very satisfied with the arrangement and was very touched.

Since Concubine Chen can't hear her daughter's voice, let her father, the emperor, do it!

"By the way, Zhou Mian, call the third prince to have dinner together." After saying this, he ignored the palace maids' attempts to stop him and went straight into the bedroom.

"Zhenzhen, hurry up and eat your milk. You can enjoy the hot pot with your father and mother later."

Qin Zhenzhen took a sip of milk and started howling in anger.

Emperor Dad.

It's so crazy!

Not long after, Zhou Mian came back with a hot pot.

The third prince happened to be following behind.

"Your Majesty, when I turned back, I happened to meet the third prince. It seemed that I saw the eldest prince and the second prince leaving." Zhou Mian said in a low voice.

Zhou Mian said this in order to do good to Concubine Chen and the Third Prince.

After all, there are some things that the Third Prince cannot say himself, and complaining about it would make him appear narrow-minded.

The third prince Qin Jinlin turned his head to look at Zhou Mian, nodded slightly, and then looked at his father and mother who came out of the bedroom.

"Your Highness, I have met Father and Mother Consort Chen. On my way to Yonghua Palace, I happened to run into my elder and second brothers, and we chatted for a while, which delayed us."

[Wow, brother was clearly being bullied. The Second Prince encouraged that idiot First Prince, saying that brother wanted to be the Crown Prince, otherwise he wouldn't have claimed credit in front of the Emperor.]

Qin Yuanhao, Qin Jinlin, Qin Jinlin (⊙_⊙)?

This rumor is a bit biased.

These two princes, instead of studying hard every day, are obsessed with vying for power. The country is perishing at the hands of these superficial people.

Qin Jinlin lowered his head even lower to cover the upturned corners of his forehead and mouth.

He felt that what his sister said made a lot of sense.

I also have to supervise my brothers to study hard and not fall behind.

Qin Yuanhao felt reluctant to see Qin Jinlin lowering his head and blaming himself.

Forget it, let An Yi treat the third prince’s leg meridians every night, and he will protect the three of them.

"You must stand up. Your mother has done so much for you. Please take a seat."

"My beloved, I am here to hold the little princess."

Chen Fei and Qin Jinlin prepared the sesame sauce according to Qin Yuanhao's method and their own habits.

Qin Yuanhao followed the little princess's instructions and mixed several sesame sauces before finally deciding on his favorite flavor.

Then, according to my daughter's wishes, I diced the mutton, dipped it in the soup with chopsticks, took it out immediately, and dipped it in the sesame sauce I prepared myself.

A thin piece of lamb, covered with sesame sauce and a little bit of chopped green onion, is finally put into your mouth.
