Chapter 964 The theme of the banquet has been determined
"I am just the sous chef who manages the kitchen. Of course, you, the chef, are responsible for the high-end things in the menu." Yang Xiu was not fooled and just turned the blame back.
How can a group of Yue people who come out of the mountains know how to appreciate the delicious food? The buffet is full and full, and it is not limited to one aspect. Especially the kind of big fish and meat, which are particularly rich in deep-fried food, which is definitely worthy of their appetite.
The three men could not understand it, but the result was that the banquet was set up according to high standards. It was a pitfall no matter how you look at it. Yang Xiu was just engaged in the chef industry, but her political IQ was not low.
"This is a bit difficult..." Wang Yong walked into his storage cabinet with a headache, took out a small notebook and a charcoal pen, and wrote it on it. Of course, this is not a small notebook for revenge.
The Man Han banquet... was cut off, just treating a Yue man with this killer move... No, no, no, it is not a matter of specifications, but a matter of time. You have to prepare so many materials in more than ten days, and you are afraid that even a house of things will not be able to come up with.
Reducing the scale is also a good choice, but indeed, that kind of killer move is to keep the Han Dynasty unified the world. When the four barbarians surrender and when all nations come to pay tribute, it is better to take it out and blind these foreign tribes.
"The person I want to entertain is Yue people..." Wang Yong had a headache. Thinking that he had not had a draft at noon, he could only consult Liu. In fact, this is also good. You can confirm it by considering it on site.
"They probably can't taste the things that are too high-end, and it's better to be simple and crude." Liu Xie smiled, "Wang Situ is actually just a little resentful, and it shouldn't make you unable to get out of the market."
"With that being said, since I want to hold a banquet, I naturally have to show my highest skills!" Wang Yong replied, "How about a topic?"
"Otherwise, the food from Yue people and the food from ours..." Liu Xie thought for a while.
"What food can Yue people have? After all, it is mainly wild game." Wang Yong was helpless. Yue people seemed to grow rice, but for Shanyue, the main source of food is wild game? If you don't raise cattle and sheep on a large scale, you probably won't have the habit of eating mutton or beef...
"In fact, you haven't really understood the food of Yue people, right? After all, your recipes are all from others..." Liu Xie smiled. She had already learned Wang Yong's final secret.
"You said that... After all, whether it is the Yue people, or other foreigners and Rong people, they are all separated from the Chinese civilization and do not have their own words or books, so there are not many delicacies that can be recorded." Wang Yong sighed, "There is a country called Vietnam in my world, but the delicacies there should have nothing to do with the Yue people."
It is said that this sentence mainly says that there are five major delicacies in that country: calf frog, field mouse, vegetable snake, scavenger fish and hairy eggs. But then again, scavenger fish seems to be native to Central America... China doesn't eat this thing very much.
"Then the idea of combining the two tribes of food cannot be implemented..." Liu Xie was helpless, "If it is too high-end, the other party may not discuss it, and they may complain about insufficient weight. However, if it is too low-end, it will not be shocking enough, and then it will not be able to shock enough for Yue people."
"So... in this case..." Wang Yong vaguely had an idea, "What do you think about using 'Civilization Change' as the theme? The general meaning is that from the original eating method, gradually entering a civilized society..."
"This theme seems quite interesting, that is, it is almost always boiled or roasted in the early stages, right? Are you not afraid of being too tired? After all, for the banquet, aren't there any appetizers and side dishes in front of it?" Liu Xie was a little worried.
"If roasted, it's okay as a side dish. In addition to boiling and baking, there are actually other methods, such as smoke or pickling. The pickled products can be considered as appetizers... There is another dietary method, which is stew!" Wang Yong thought carefully.
"Indeed, sashimi itself is a relatively retro way to eat... fish sashimi or meat sashimi?" Liu Xie became a little curious.
"Fish sashimi is not bad either. Do you want to have frog sashimi?" Wang Yong suddenly became unreasonable.
"I remember it wasn't a complaint that the living frog had a lot of parasites." Liu Xie turned his eyes and went back.
"In addition, in terms of meat, how about crocodile meat? That is, crocodile!" Wang Yong changed the topic.
"I remember that some Yue people tribes use dragons as totems, and you directly cook the gods that others believe in. Are you planning to start a war against others?" Liu Xie tilted his head.
"I can worship because of the power of the dragon. If they know the deliciousness of the dragon, the dragons in Jiangnan will probably become extinct... Speaking of which, the leather of the dragons is also very good to make leather armor or leather shoes..." Wang Yong thought for a while.
In fact, the best one is rhinoceros leather. It is said that the three thousand armored soldiers under the command of King Yue were wearing rhinoceros leather armor. At that time, this thing was almost incomparable to swords and guns, which made Goujian defeat the Wu Kingdom. Anyway, there is a legend that says this.
"Do you have a lot of crocodile leather shoes?" Liu Xie asked casually.
"And there is also a wallet! If you do leather shoes well, you will feel like tortoiseshell, which looks pretty." Wang Yong thought for a while, "There are crocodiles, but they are mainly breeding. Can you imagine? Many people in Jiangnan think they are monsters, or dragons, who think they are dragons, and are raised like pigs, cattle and sheep to eat."
"By the way, I'll harvest their skins, right?" Liu Xie thought for a while.
"So how about the crocodile?" Wang Yong suggested.
"Forget it, respect other people's beliefs, but... you can temporarily put it on the alternative list and ask if others believe in it first. If the other party hates it because of the problem of the crocodile, then I think you will be very happy to use the crocodile to cook dishes!" Liu Xie replied.
"Okay, that's almost certain..." Wang Yong took out a small notebook and wrote the material of the dragon on it.
"The menu doesn't seem to be settled so quickly?" Liu Xie looked at Wang Yong.
"With a good direction, there is only one step left to success!" Wang Yong's pen quickly began to move. If the theme of the banquet was determined, it would be much easier to determine the recipe...
Use pickled products as the starter, and then use that before the soup, then use it as a good idea, then it is stew as a transition, then it is boiled, and then roasted. Start with the main course, use fried, fried and steamed to transition, and then the most luxurious dessert as the ending. In other words, the most dazzling dish appears in the form of desserts, which seems to be very good.
So ten minutes later, two banquet recipes appeared in front of Liu Xie. Looking at the other party's surprised expression, Wang Yong smiled and said, "Right? It's easy to confirm..."
"So that's it. This is what the changes in civilization mean!" Liu Xie looked at the recipe and was actually a little expectant.
"So..." Wang Yong pointed to the recipe, "Dignified Your Majesty, which of these two recipes do you like?!"
