"I came to Xizhou City for this matter. Jinbing found out that someone was preparing to hold a dark banquet. That monkey was the main ingredient at this banquet!" Xing Sen said to Ye Chui with a serious look on his face. When he said this, Ye Chui vaguely felt that he was still a little angry. △￠
"Dark Banquet?" Ye Chui heard this term for the first time.
"It is a banquet that provides illegal food. This kind of banquet existed before the ban on meat was lifted. But now there is still no way to stop it, and there is even a trend of becoming more and more intense. This is a very serious food crime and a serious problem that our food detectives must firmly." Xing Sen continued to say to Ye Chui, "I heard Jinbing say these things, so I hurried to Xizhou City. Someone actually wants to hold a dark banquet here, and I will never go around them."
"What is the main nature of this dark banquet?" Ye Chui was stunned and continued to ask.
"In short, it is to eat foods prohibited by the state, some rare animals or humane cooking methods. The dark banquet reflects the dark side of human nature." Xing Sen explained, "The dark banquet has another name, which we often call it dark cuisine."
"Dark cuisine..." Ye Chui suddenly thought of the dark cuisine he had in his previous life.
The so-called dark cuisine refers to the kind of food that looks weird or cannot swallow. The more famous one is the British looking up at the stars, and the isatis instant noodles that are particularly famous in domestic dormitory culture...
Of course, the dark cuisine in this world obviously represents another meaning. When Ye Chui thought of something, he continued to ask Xing Sen: "I heard that the definition of dark cuisine is to violate humanity or eat illegal ingredients. But in those years when meat is poisonous, what does dark cuisine mean?"
"The poisonous meat is the reason for the appearance of dark food." Xing Sen's expression was indescribably solemn. "Because of the vegetarian virus, all animals carry viruses that can kill humans, but among these animals, there is a type of meat that is harmless to humans."
As he spoke, Xing Sen stared at Ye Chui with his eyes tightly, and his expression made Ye Chui suddenly shudder.
He had already thought of an answer in his mind: "Is it human beings themselves..."
"It's a bug." Xing Sen said with a smile.
Ye Chu: "…"
Seeing Ye Chui's look shocked, Xing Sen was so proud that he couldn't say anything. The terrifying thing he said just now was obviously intentional...
Ye rolled his eyes and asked, "So that's the case... The vegetarian virus did not affect the insects, but even if it was a dark dish? Some insects should be edible, right?"
In the last life, people in some places had the habit of eating bugs. Although it suddenly sounded very disgusting, in fact, this dish was not as unbearable as it sounded. For example, there was a flavored snack in Tianjin, which was fried grasshoppers. If you can eliminate psychological barriers, this dish is still very crispy and delicious.
The hometown where leaves drooped for life is full of pear trees. Every summer night, everyone will catch cicada monkeys. The scientific name of cicada monkey is cicada monkey, which is a cicada larvae (ps: we call it Crawford, I wonder if it is the same as us~~). This kind of thing is rich in meat, and even some big restaurants will specially purchase cicada monkeys, which is a special delicacy and is expensive.
In addition, many insects are famous medicinal herbs, such as Cordyceps sinensis.
The tradition of eating insects in some countries has existed since ancient times. So in the eyes of Ye Chui, the god of food, eating insects is no big deal. In the last life, there was a strange man in the wilderness who treated insects as a common occurrence...
"Do you think any kind of bug can be eaten?" But Xing Sen quickly gave Ye Gui a fatal blow. "Some bugs rich in protein are still poisonous. Only some species can be eaten, such as...cockroaches."
Ye Chui: "...Stop talking, readers will not be able to stand abandoning books."
"In short, some people have created a dark cuisine system because of their demand for meaty food. After the ban on meat was lifted, this cuisine quietly developed into another category, and even became more and more intense. If we find someone secretly holds a dark banquet, we must severely punish them." Xing Sen continued to explain, and he finally reached the point. "According to the news from Jinbing, the monkey that someone captured was to hold a dark banquet. One part of the monkey was very delicious. Guess where it was?"
"It's a monkey brain."
Ye Chui said in a deep voice.
Since he saw the little monkey being captured two days ago, he vaguely had this kind of guess. Now his guess has come true. Monkey Brain is a method of eating that violates humanity and is very cruel. Even among the highest-level [meal] in the Manchu and Han banquet, there is a dish made of Monkey Brain.
[Diet] The Manhan ches at the level are the most precious and delicious ingredients in the world, and they are hard to come by, including bear paw, monkey brain, elephant trunk, etc. Of course, when Ye Chui held the Manhan ches, he did not directly cook these ingredients, but chose to use other ingredients instead.
In Ye Chui's previous life, it was naturally illegal to eat monkey brain, but it can still be eaten in some big cities, while in some other countries, monkey brain meals can be openly placed on the banquet. It is undeniable that monkey brain is very delicious, but this is a completely opposite to Ye Chui's concept of nothing, and it is also a cruel dish that he has always resisted very much.
He did not expect that such cruel and dark things would still occur in the world in the food era.
When Xing Sen heard Ye Chui's words, his eyes suddenly became serious and stared at Ye Chui: "How could you know the monkey brain?"
"I have seen this kind of ingredients in some recipes." Ye Chui quickly explained, "I am very resistant to this cruel way of cooking." As he said this, Ye Chui looked at Tian Xiaodu and Han Yuyan, who were undergoing rat-killing operations in the kitchen with some concern, and then continued to ask Xing Sen, "Since this matter is illegal, can you find a way to rescue the little monkey? Xiao Yu has been very unhappy these two days. I am worried that this will affect her psychology."
"Sorry." However, Xing Sen shook his head directly and said with some regret, "Jinbing only found out that someone was going to hold a dark banquet, but there was no clue about the organizer of the banquet. It would be impossible to rescue the monkey and catch this cruel guy all in one place.
"Then who else do you need?" Ye Chui asked hurriedly.
"You." Xing Sen pointed at Ye Chui with his finger.
"Me?" Ye Chui was stunned.
Xing Sen nodded and continued to explain: "Jinbing also investigated a very important information, that is, the person who held the dark banquet is recruiting chefs recently. I hope you can apply for the chef of the dark banquet and participate in the banquet in person, so as to try to catch all the people participating in the banquet!"
Ye Chui showed a contemplative expression: "Is this matter dangerous?"
"The danger of hairy?" Xing Sen smiled, "That group of people just eat without any particular attention, but they are not extremely vicious people. Besides, the danger I will always be with you will definitely not encounter, but..." Xing Sen paused, "The chef of this dark banquet requires a certain degree of cooking skills, and even those who have been expelled from the chef's certificate by the Food Association. You have a one-star chef's certificate and are in the limelight recently, so you are naturally qualified to participate, but in addition to qualifications, you also need to conduct an audit. At that time, there will be many chefs competing for banquet positions. You need to make a dark dish to satisfy the reviewer."
"That's it..."
A lot of dark dishes suddenly flashed in Ye Chu's mind. What are looking up at the stars, what are chocolate bananas, what are fried ice bullies, what are salmon peeled butter fried cakes...
Although Ye Chui is absolutely not interested in these foods because of his insistence on food, with his ability, he can basically understand what the method is to make such things by just a glance, but... it feels too inappropriate to let him cook these dark dishes at the god of food.
But for Wang Shiyu's little monkey, he had to endure it!
So he and Xing Sen nodded heavily: "I should have no problem with this."
"Are you sure?" Xing Sen said with some doubts, "The review of the dark banquet is basically three points. The first point is that the creativity is unexpected. The second point is that the ingredients are special and ordinary people cannot eat them. Of course, there is also the most important third point, which is deliciousness. This is definitely not something that ordinary chefs can do. Moreover, the news about the dark banquet chef is tomorrow. He can help you get the registration qualification. But in such a short time, are you really sure to make enough qualified dark dishes?"
"Don't worry, there will be no problem." Ye Chui nodded confidently. He has always been very confident about his cooking skills.
"Then what are you going to do?" Xing Sen immediately asked.
Ye Chui was about to move out the famous starry sky in his previous life, but at this time, Han Yuyan's scream suddenly came from the kitchen, and the sister ran out of the kitchen: "Master, you found the rat again... It's still a nest of rats!"
"A mouse was found again?" Ye Chui couldn't help but frown. The hotel stopped operating in the past two days and conducted a thorough investigation of the kitchen. Yesterday, a big white cat was invited to put it in the kitchen. It was obvious that a mouse had been caught, so why is there a nest now?
He didn't bother to talk to Xing Sen and hurried into the kitchen.
The kitchen utensils in the kitchen were being washed, and the cabinets and other things were moved away. The rat nest that Han Yuyan mentioned was right behind the cabinet. Tian Xiaodu was carefully slapped there with a broom. When Ye Chui walked over, he hurriedly turned to Ye Chui and said, "It's a nest of little mice. It seems that they have just been born a few days ago."
"Little mouse?" Ye Chui looked at it quickly and saw five or six little mice crawling on the ground. They said they were mice, but they looked more like a small ball of meat, with no hair on their bodies and their eyes not open. They had just been born for less than three days.
Seeing these white and tender little mice, a cruel dark dish that had been recorded since the Tang Dynasty suddenly flashed in Ye Chu's mind...
"Tomorrow's dark banquet chef can make that dish!" (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better, updated and faster!
