Chapter 324 Chili?
"Master, master, look! The heart on Emperor Kangxi's head has more color!" Xiao Jin's face flushed with excitement.
Flying around Emperor Kangxi's head.
Wen Jiu couldn't help but be surprised. How could this happen? Eating his own fish would increase his love for himself?
If that's the case, she should work harder. She has more than just this kind of food, and they are all guaranteed to be fresh.
After finishing half of the fish and meat pot, the Ninth Master could no longer sit still. He put down his bowl and chopsticks and immediately stood up: "Father, I will show you my cooking skills today. Please take a look at my abilities."
As he said this, he squatted beside Wenjiu, took the vegetables and placed them on another barbecue grill, and sat down with Wenjiu to barbecue.
The Tenth Master was sweating as he ate, but he nodded very seriously and said, "Father, my Lord, Ninth Brother's cooking skills are indeed quite good, only slightly worse than Fourth Sister-in-law's. I haven't been to Fourth Brother's house for a while now, so I rely on Ninth Brother's cooking to satisfy my craving."
Emperor Kangxi glanced at his delicate son and said, "I didn't know you could cook."
Jiu Ye patted his chest and said, "I promise it won't taste much worse than Little Fourth Sister-in-law's."
He then looked at Wen Jiu with a smile and said, "I've also been practicing secretly these days, Little Fourth Sister-in-law, how about we have a competition? Who knows, maybe I can surpass you?"
Wen Jiu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow: "Master Jiu, are you very confident?"
Jiu Ye patted his chest and said, "Of course."
He immediately added, "Father Emperor, Fourth Brother, please be my witnesses. Later, my little Fourth Sister-in-law and I will bring you our baked goods for you to judge and see which one tastes better."
Before Wen Jiu could say anything, Emperor Kangxi smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait and try it."
"I didn't expect that Old Nine actually has some accomplishments in cooking." Having said that, Emperor Kangxi turned his gaze to the Fourth Master again: "Fourth Master, you seem to know quite a bit too."
I remember correctly, the seasoning bowls for several people were adjusted twice just now.
This dipping sauce is quite strange. It looks plain at first, but if you roll some vegetables in it, even the bland boiled cabbage becomes very flavorful. You can't stop eating it.
The Fourth Master nodded slightly and said, "I have seen that little girl do it a lot, so I have learned a little bit, but I am not proficient in it."
Then he continued, "Father Emperor, you can actually mix these seasonings yourself. If you like more garlic, you can add more. If you like spicy food, you can add more chili peppers. You can add more or less according to your taste."
"Chili?" Emperor Kangxi raised his eyebrows.
The Fourth Master pointed to a small dish in the middle and said, "This is chili pepper. My little concubine found it by chance. I didn't expect it to taste so good when added to the dish."
I've asked the imperial physician before, and he said eating less can help you sweat and remove dampness, which is good for your health."
Emperor Kangxi nodded and said, "This is a good thing. Is it difficult to grow it?"
He actually remembered the taste of chili peppers clearly. The spicy strips and the beef jerky he had made before all tasted very good.
The Fourth Master said, "I haven't tried it yet. I'll try planting some this spring."
Emperor Kangxi nodded: "Yes."
As they were talking, Wenjiu brought a large iron plate and placed it on the table.
Emperor Kangxi looked over and saw various vegetables skewered on bamboo sticks, various meats sizzling with oil, and a few grilled fish on the side. The fresh, fragrant and spicy smell instantly rushed over.
Emperor Kangxi couldn't help but put down his chopsticks and reached out to pick up two skewers of meat.
Just as he was hesitating about how to start, he saw Lao Shi next to him grabbing a handful of skewers and eating them bite by bite. He looked like he was enjoying it very much.
Then I looked at the fourth child next to me, who was also eating with bamboo sticks.
However, his eating manners were better. His speed was not slow at all, and soon, he had a handful of skewers in front of him.
Emperor Kangxi took a look at the fragrant meat skewers in his hand and frowned for a moment.
Liang Jiugong, who was standing behind him, saw this and immediately came forward: "Your Majesty, may I help you take it down?"
Emperor Kangxi waved his hand to stop him: "No, I want to try it too."
Then, he followed the example of his other two sons and carefully took a bite.
It was still a little hot when he put it in his mouth. Emperor Kangxi ate it while breathing in it. His eyes gradually lit up.
The meat is fat and lean, and it is roasted on the outside over a heavier fire, leaving a burnt aroma. Some unfamiliar seasonings are sprinkled on the meat, giving it a strange fragrance.
This taste was really the first time he ate it, but Emperor Kangxi couldn't stop eating it. For a while, he didn't say a word and just ate the skewers with his two sons.
Jiu Ye soon brought out a plate and brought it over: "Hurry up, don't just focus on eating Xiao Si's wife's, come and try mine too."
As he said this, he looked at everyone expectantly.
Wenjiu couldn't help laughing when he saw this situation.
If Jiu Ye’s food intake were better than mine, that would be truly bizarre.
Although she looked like she was sitting here barbecuing like Jiu Ye, she was actually using something in the space.
No matter what kind of food it is, after being kept in the space for a period of time, it will taste better than outside to a certain extent.
In addition, she had planted some beans in the space this time. This soybean oil was squeezed from the beans she planted, and it was even more fragrant.
Barbecue itself doesn't have many health benefits, so she uses all the ingredients that can be used in the space. She does her best to help everyone recuperate.
"Come and have a taste of mine?" Seeing that everyone was still talking, Jiu Ye became anxious. He pushed his plate forward and took the plate of warm wine to the back.
Emperor Kangxi frowned slightly, but in the end he picked up a skewer roasted by Jiu Ye and tasted it out of respect.
Before he could say anything, he saw Su Peisheng trotting over and saying, "Lord Beile, the wife, the concubine, and the princesses are here to pay their respects."
"What's the matter?" asked the Fourth Master.
Su Peisheng immediately raised his eyes to glance at Emperor Kangxi, and then replied respectfully: "When the concubine heard that the Ninth and Tenth Masters were coming, she deliberately asked the kitchen to add some dishes."
As soon as these words came out, Master Shi paused in his skewers. He looked up with a puzzled expression and asked, "Is Fourth Sister-in-law sending you food?"
Come to think of it, they don't seem to have much friendship with Fourth Sister-in-law. Every time they came to Fourth Brother's house before, Fourth Sister-in-law was silent. Why did she think of sending meals today?
The Fourth Master simply nodded and said, "Let Fu Jin leave the things behind and thank her on behalf of the Ninth and Tenth Masters. Let her go back and rest early."
Su Peisheng immediately responded: "Yeah."
"Wait a minute," Emperor Kangxi suddenly said, "Since your wife is so willing, let her in."
Emperor Kangxi had not expected that another person would come to deliver food. The food at the Fourth Prince's residence was ordinary, but this food was really good.
If a little concubine could do this, what would the fourth brother's wife come up with? For a moment, I was actually a little excited.
