Chapter 329: Food Tasting Army
In this way, they stayed in the county lord's mansion for a few days. Zheng Sisi took them to appreciate the diversity of food. Together with the servants in the mansion, Zheng Sisi made these food tasting troops understand that everything can be used as food ingredients. In the past, people said that they could not eat something because they did not know how to eat it.
Grilled fish, braised fish, boiled fish, spicy fish fillets, and fish hotpot have made everyone realize that fish is edible and very delicious.
After eating the fish, Zheng Sisi experimented with chickens. She made boiled chicken, twice-cooked chicken, roasted chicken, grilled chicken, beggar's chicken, fried chicken fillets, chicken chops, braised chicken feet, chicken wings, and chicken gizzards. There were so many varieties that they began to question life.
Then there were roast duck, stewed duck soup, braised duck, braised duck, sauced duck, blood plasma duck, braised duck feet, duck wings, duck heads, duck gizzards, duck intestines... Zheng Sisi asked everyone to taste the food. After eating chicken and duck for four or five days in a row, everyone was tired of it.
Zheng Zhimin said, "Sister Sisi, don't eat chicken or duck anymore. I think I will vomit if you continue to eat them."
They stopped only after receiving protests from several people. Why did they only target chickens and ducks? It was because Zheng Sisi encouraged the people of Qingshui County to raise chickens and ducks. If they didn't conduct the experiment now, the chickens and ducks would have nowhere to be sold and would pile up, causing panic among the people.
The reason why Zheng Sisi is so skilled in cooking is that she has been working in the catering industry in modern times and worked there for almost ten years before she quit and went home. She also likes to watch videos of food bloggers from all over the world and has learned many cuisines.
When everyone got tired of eating chicken and duck, Zheng Sisi made some barbecue skewers. After a day of barbecue, the whole county mansion was filled with the aroma of meat. The servants in the third prince's mansion next door could only eat by smelling the aroma in the air across the courtyard wall. They were so pitiful that they envied Qingfeng's close guards who could follow their master to the next door to eat and drink for free.
Zhong Ruiyu held two steamed buns and asked, "Sister Sisi, are you out of food in your house? Why are you even baking steamed buns?"
Zheng Sisi rolled her eyes at him and said, "Let me tell you, everything can be roasted, even vegetables. I can even roast a bug for you until it's crispy and fragrant."
It is true that in modern barbecue stalls, there are many grilled cicadas, grilled grasshoppers, grilled scorpions, and insect eggs... These are high-protein and high-nutrition foods and are very popular.
When the three little sisters heard about roasting insects, they were shocked and got goosebumps. Girls are naturally afraid of these things, so they all stayed away from Zhong Ruiyu, fearing that he would really catch insects.
Zhong Ruiyu protested aggrievedly after seeing this: "What's your attitude? I didn't say anything. She said it. Why are you so far away from me?"
Li Ziyan said weakly: "You wouldn't really go and catch bugs, would you?"
Zhong Ruiyu said, "Why would I go catch bugs? Don't listen to her nonsense. She's good at scaring people."
After hearing his assurance, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief and slowly moved back.
On the second day after the barbecue, Zheng Sisi prepared a new food for everyone - hot pot.
Sitting at the dining table, everyone was dumbfounded when looking at the table full of dishes. There were a lot of dishes, but they were all raw. How could they eat them?
Meat balls, fish balls, lotus root balls, glutinous rice balls, chicken fillets, chicken gizzards, chicken intestines, duck meat, duck frames, duck intestines, duck intestines..., radish slices, sweet potato slices, all the side dishes available on the market now.
There is also tofu. This is the first time Zheng Sisi has seen tofu here. It is very rough and has a strong bean smell. Perhaps she can improve the method of making tofu. In the past, her grandmother would grind her own tofu during the Chinese New Year, so Zheng Sisi naturally learned it. There are many ways to eat soy products, and maybe she can open a soy product workshop.
We also prepared fried dough sticks and steamed bread slices. Zheng Sisi also used mung beans and soybeans to sprout mung beans and soybeans. It's a pity that there is no beef and seafood here, otherwise the ingredients would be more comprehensive.
In the middle, there were two pots supported by two small clay stoves, with soup bubbling inside, one red and the other white, with nothing in them. There were also many bottles, jars, bowls and dishes on a small table next to it.
Seeing this, Sheng Zhen asked, "Sisi, what's the new way to eat today?"
Zheng Zhiyuan also asked, "Cousin, are we going to eat raw food today? The cooks in the mansion have all gone to the reception building to help."
Several people looked at Zheng Sisi at the same time, waiting for her to explain. Based on their understanding of Zheng Sisi, she would definitely not let everyone eat raw food, and there should be a bigger surprise waiting for everyone.
