Chapter 24 Sizi and Steamed Eggs
"Ugh~" Qin Huaiyu, the pretty boy, crawled beside the rockery and kept vomiting. In order to show off his masculinity in front of the beautiful woman, he drank more than a kilogram of Wuwang Zui in one go. Plus what he drank before, it was estimated that there were at least two
He weighed so much that he could barely hold on in the main hall just now, but he couldn't hold on anymore after leaving the main hall. He vomited all the way, and the servants in charge of cleaning in the palace will probably scold him to death tomorrow.
The group of them were frequently toasted by beauties in the main hall, and they were so fascinated that they couldn't even find Bei. They probably didn't even know how much they drank. People with poor drinking capacity, such as Li Yong, Fang Yiai and others, were already crawling on the floor.
The people on the table giggled like "hehe" and might fall down at any time. The better ones like Li Ke, Cheng Huailiang, Yuchi brothers and others are now drunkenly crazy with excessive energy, punching or howling in different expressions, but this kid Li Jingye
I was in good spirits, jumping up and down without feeling drunk at all.
This is a pavilion next to the palace hall. After their group of more than 20 people escaped from the hall in embarrassment, they did not go back directly to the banquet hall in the square, but came here to get some fresh air. Unfortunately, Qin Huaiyu was such a terrible sight.
In addition, vomiting is also contagious. After a while, several boys ran to the side and vomited.
Li Min also drank a lot. Although he didn't like to drink, he actually had a good capacity for drinking. He could hold on after drinking about a kilogram. However, the sound of vomiting from Qin Huaiyu's side was like a magic sound that pierced the ears. It was so disgusting.
Li Min gradually felt his stomach churning, and finally couldn't bear it any longer, so he ran out and vomited.
After vomiting almost all the contents in his stomach, Li Min felt better. Walking with shaky legs, Li Min returned to the pavilion and found that the people who had gone to vomit had almost returned, so he weakly suggested: "Everyone should go back."
Let’s drink some hangover soup at the venue and then eat something else, otherwise you won’t be able to get up tomorrow?”
"What a great idea. I'm already vomiting in my stomach. I'm really hungry now!" Qin Huaiyu replied with a pale face. Except for a few who were drunk and crazy, everyone else agreed. So everyone stood up unsteadily.
Drag those drunks back to the venue.
The attentive Wen'er had already prepared a sobering soup. This sobering soup was also specially made by Li Min. When preparing for the banquet, Li Min saw that his servants killed the sheep and threw away all the internal organs. He felt very regretful.
, the idea came up with the dish of spicy and sour tripe soup, so I asked my servants to wash the lamb tripe and rub it with salt. After cutting it into thin strips, I added shredded ginger, soy sauce, salt, pepper, and rice wine.
Cook together, then thicken with vinegar, and finally drizzle with sesame oil. A spicy and sour belly soup that is sour but not cool, spicy but not strong, salty but not astringent is ready.
This was a must-have soup at banquets in Li Min's hometown in later generations. It was usually served at the end of the banquet. This soup was not only delicious and appetizing, but also had an excellent hangover effect. Li Min in later generations liked to drink it very much. However, it was sour and spicy.
The main ingredient of tripe soup is pork tripe, and sheep tripe can be used as a substitute.
After eating a bowl of spicy and sour tripe soup, his sense of taste was stimulated by the spicy and sour taste. Li Min soon broke into a thin sweat. The alcohol in his body seemed to be discharged with the sweat, and his energy recovered a lot.
It was warm and comfortable. Unfortunately, there was no chili pepper, so the spiciness in the soup was slightly lacking.
"Haha~, today is really a worthwhile trip. Not only did I taste the best wine in the world, but the dishes were also novel and delicious. Even the hangover soup was so delicious!" Qin Huaiyu drank two bowls in a row before gasping for breath.
With a sigh of praise, Li Ke and others also lowered their heads and drank fiercely. Even Li Yong and other drunk people asked Li Jingye, who was too energetic, to open his mouth and drink a bowl.
"Haha, if you brothers like it, you can come to my house often in the future. I dare not say anything else, but I know a lot about the methods of new delicacies. It will be so delicious that even your tongue wants to swallow it!" Li Min
He said with a smile that he had established friendship with everyone today, but in the future he would have to come and go frequently to increase the friendship between them.
"That's natural. If it weren't for my grandfather's strict control, I wouldn't want to live in Liulang's house." Li Jingye, a guy with excessive energy, came over at some time and said very excitedly.
"Hahaha~, when you get married by the end of the year, I'm afraid it won't just be the British father who will be in charge of you!" Cheng Huailiang was so drunk that he was sobered up by the sober soup. At this time, he came over and teased Li Jingye, "For
He was jealous and envious of Li Jingye's early marriage, but there was nothing he could do about it. Who made Princess Qinghe too young?
Mentioning Li Jingye's fiancée, everyone burst into laughter again. When they were in the hall just now, they all met the granddaughter of Duke Wei Guo. She was very beautiful. She was about the same age as Li Jingye, but she had a hot temper.
Li Jingye just glanced at her a few more times, but this girl took the opportunity of toasting to drink him down. If Li Jingye hadn't been a good drinker, he would probably be as bad as Li Yong and the others now.
"Tch~, we still can't decide who will care about whom then?" Li Jingye was still talking adamantly, as if he was not the one who was drunk just now but didn't dare to resist.
After drinking the sobering soup, everyone joked and joked for a while, and finally regained their spirits a lot. Li Min, Qin Huaiyu and others had just vomited their stomachs, and now they were all hungry, so they rushed to the dining table to eat haise.
Before he could fill his stomach, he saw Li Zhi, a little kid, following a group of underage princes and princesses into the venue. These underage children were all arranged in the side hall, with special personnel to look after them.
Li Min watched these brothers and sisters come in, and first greeted Li Shimin, who was drinking and having fun. Li Shimin was having a good time, and waved them away. Li Zhi seemed to have something to do with Li Min, and he was found in the crowd as soon as he came in.
When he saw Li Shimin asking them to leave, he immediately led the gang to kill Li Min.
"Brother Six, I finally found you!" Li Zhi sat down next to Li Min, snatched a piece of roast lamb from Li Min's plate and gnawed on it.
"What's wrong with Sizi? You are not playing in the side hall, why are you here?" Li Min saw that Sizi seemed unhappy, and Qinghe and other sisters comforted her in low voices from time to time.
"Oh~ Brother Ninth doesn't let Sizi eat roast duck or roast mutton. He only lets Sizi drink juice and eat those unpalatable dishes. Sizi is so pitiful!" The little girl looked at Li Min and asked herself
, threw herself into Li Min's arms, cried and complained.
"What's going on?" Li Min frowned and looked at Li Zhi. Logically speaking, Li Zhi and Si Zi were both born to Empress Changsun. Li Zhi usually loves Si Zi the most, so he shouldn't deny Si Zi food for no reason.
"It's not the pheasant slave's fault for this!" Qinghe, a shrewd little girl, stood up and defended Li Zhi, "Si Zi has been weak and sick since he was a child. Some time ago, Dr. Sun personally diagnosed and treated Si Zi and told him not to let Si Zi eat
There are too many greasy and fishy things. After Si Zi tasted the roast duck and roast lamb at the banquet just now, he liked it very much and clamored to eat it. However, Si Nu was afraid that Si Zi would eat too much and his body would not be able to bear it, so he stopped him.
."
"Yes, Sixth Brother, some of the new dishes at the banquet are indeed delicious, but they are not suitable for Sizi, so we came to you to see if we can ask your chef to cook some light and unique dishes?"
Li Zhi also said helplessly that he loved this sister the most. If those dishes could be eaten by her, she would have eaten them long ago.
"Well, well..." Li Min couldn't help but feel funny when he looked at Sizi's pouting little face with an angry expression. Even though Sizi was usually quite sensible, he was still a three-year-old child after all. Who could be stubborn?
Don't even listen to what he says.
"Yes, there is no need for a cook at all. This time Brother Six will cook something delicious for Si Zi!" Li Min snapped his fingers and said with a flash of inspiration. He knew a lot about light and unique dishes, but they were too complicated.
He couldn't make it now, but he thought of a kind of food that he often gave to his children when he was a child in his previous life. It was easy to make and very delicious. Si Zi absolutely loved it.
"Brother Six, do you know how to cook?" Li Zhi looked surprised. Si Zi also stopped crying and looked at this magical Brother Six curiously. The other younger brothers and sisters all looked at Li Min with suspicion. Obviously,
I don’t quite believe what Li Min said.
"You don't believe it, do you? I'll make it for you right now!" Li Min couldn't stand others doubting him, so he rolled up his sleeves and asked his servants to prepare materials and utensils.
After a while, a pot with a pot on the stove was brought in. At the same time, the things Li Min wanted to use were also prepared. He picked up a large basin and beat a lot of eggs in it at one go.
Then open it with chopsticks, put twice as much warm water in, add salt and stir it, and sprinkle some chopped green onion on top. After the water in the pot boils, set up a basket and put the eggs on it to steam. After ten
A few minutes later, Li Min asked someone to bring the basin down. He used chopsticks to cut the jelly-like eggs into small cubes, then poured some vinegar and sesame oil on top, creating a bowl of steamed rice with a strong aroma and a salty and smooth texture.
The eggs are done.
Although this steamed egg is simple to make, it is sour, salty, delicious and extremely tender. When Li Min celebrated his birthday in his previous life, his family would steam a large bowl of it for him, so he was very impressed. Originally, this way of eating was very common in later generations.
, it is estimated that some people in the Tang Dynasty also ate like this, but the last time he asked Wen'er to make a midnight snack for him, he ordered steamed eggs, but Wen'er didn't know how to cook them. For this reason, Li Min also asked many cooks in the house, but there was no one.
I have heard of this practice, and it is estimated that this practice has not spread in the Guanzhong area of the Tang Dynasty.
"Hmm~, it smells so good. Just smelling this smell makes people drool!" Qinghe puffed up his small nose with a greedy look on his face. Sizi was also attracted by the scent and looked at Li Min eagerly. Others
The younger brothers and sisters had similar reactions. Even many people attending the banquet nearby were attracted by the scent. They just saw these princes and princesses gathering together and were embarrassed to surround them.
Li Min was not in a hurry. After the temperature was not too hot, he brought a small bowl over and filled it for Sizi. He asked with a proud look on his face: "Sizi, please try whether the sixth brother's cooking is delicious."
?”
Sizi couldn't wait for a long time. He took a small taste first, and his appetite was immediately stimulated by the sour, salty and delicious taste. He ate all the eggs in the bowl with gleaming eyes, and then held it high.
Xiao Wan said: "Sixth Brother, Sixth Brother, Sizi wants more!"
Li Min laughed and hurriedly added another bowl of Sizi. The younger brothers and sisters around him also looked greedy. After all, they were not very old. The older one, Ru Qinghe, was only twelve or thirteen years old, and the younger one was only
Similar to Sizi, it is the time when the mouth is greedy. Li Min had already expected this situation, so he used this kind of big bowl. Sizi's little belly would never be able to finish it.
"What are you still doing in a daze? Everyone, prepare bowls and spoons and come and try Sixth Brother's craftsmanship!" Li Min was very excited and pointed at the group of younger brothers and sisters who were still in a daze.
Following Li Min's order, the group of princes and princesses immediately reacted, grabbed the bowl and stretched it out in front of Li Min, "Sixth brother, sixth brother~" Each one shouted sweeter than the other, and even in order to compete for the position, Li Zhen and
The two guys Li Shen almost got into a fight. Fortunately, Li Min, the sixth brother, still had some prestige, so he knocked the two dishonest guys on the head to calm them down, and then Li Min gave each of them a bowl.
A dozen little guys just kept their heads down and ate.
Li Min was not full to begin with, and his appetite had already been whetted by the steamed eggs, so he served himself a bowl and was about to eat it when he suddenly heard a familiar voice behind him.
"Ming'er, what kind of delicious food have you made here? The aroma is so appetizing that my father can't help but want to try it." As soon as he heard this name, he knew that Li Shimin was coming, and Li Ming turned around quickly to salute. Li Shimin
I was having a drink with the ministers when I accidentally saw his group of young children surrounding Li Min. I came over out of curiosity. I smelled an appetizing aroma a dozen steps away, so I came.
This question.
"Father, these are the eggs Liu Ge specially steamed for Si Zi. Try it quickly, it's delicious!" Before Li Min could say anything, the woman rushed to Li Shimin's arms with the bowl and raised a spoonful.
Let Li Shimin taste the steamed eggs. This little girl is both sensible and able to please adults. It's no wonder that everyone who meets her likes her.
Seeing how sensible Si Zi was, Li Shimin's face had already burst into laughter. Now, let alone the delicious steamed eggs Si Zi was feeding, he could probably swallow even a spoonful of mud.
"Well, it's delicious. A small egg can be made so smooth, tender, and salty. It's really unexpected!" Li Shimin took a bite and praised loudly, but then his face changed, as if he thought of something, and he immediately thought
He said to Li Min, "Ming'er, your mother has never had an appetite during her illness. This steamed egg is very appetizing. Please immediately ask someone to teach the palace how to make it, and ask someone to make it for you tomorrow."
Mother!"
Li Min was startled by Lao Li's rapid change of expression, but he didn't expect that he was thinking of Queen Changsun, so he immediately said: "Yes! I obey!"
"Father, there's no need to go to such trouble. This steamed egg recipe is very simple. I just learned it after watching it once. Why don't I make it tomorrow for my mother to eat!" Li Zhi is not that old, so he can take the credit.
But very sophisticated.
"Okay, okay! The filial piety of the pheasant slave is commendable. I am very pleased to be a father!" Li Shimin couldn't help but feel comforted when he saw that his children were so sensible. He stroked Li Zhi's head and praised him repeatedly. When other princes and princesses saw Li Zhi being praised, they
Everyone jumped out and said that they could do it too. Li Shimin loved his son so much that of course he praised them one by one.
Finally, Li Shimin walked up to Li Min, looked at his son who was almost as tall as himself, patted his shoulder with great satisfaction, and said sincerely: "Min'er, this banquet was well organized. Not only is my father satisfied,
, almost all the ministers who came to participate praised you, you have finally grown up!"
"Thank you, Father, for your compliment. It's all because of your good teachings and your example in front of my son, so that I can change my ways and start a new life." Although it's a bit disgusting, this emperor's father is flattering.
I can't help but take pictures.
"Hahaha~, although I know it's flattery, but my father likes it very much." Li Shimin's face was not that thick-skinned. He even joked with Li Min, but he laughed for a while and then said, "Your mother
The concubine just sent someone here to bring you the long and short sentences of your new poem. They all said that the poem is like the person it is. The open-minded and optimistic attitude in the poem is very appreciated by my father. In the future, I will do more things to make your mother and concubine happy. She has been in the poem for many years.
I have worried a lot about you, and even cried secretly behind my back, please don’t let her down again!"
"My son, please remember your father's teachings!" Li Min felt hot in his heart. At this moment, Li Shimin truly looked like a father instead of an emperor. A few gentle words made Li Min's nose sore. The father in his previous life and the one in front of him felt sour.
Li Shimin already has some overlap.
"Haha, don't act like a little girl!" Li Shimin patted Li Min's shoulder hard a few more times, then reached out and snatched the steamed eggs from Li Min's hand, ate them in several bites, and then served a bowl himself before giving him a favor.
Take people away naturally.
