C211 Robbery (1/2)

In the kitchen, in the steamy environment, Xiao Wen and Zhou Xian stood by the stove, preparing the boiled cabbage.

Of all the Chinese cuisines, the boiled cabbage was one of the best. In the 21st century, perhaps only a chef who had studied this dish before would dare to make and sell this dish.

When Xiao Wen was eating this in Sichuan, he remembered that a small plate of boiled water cabbage could be sold for around 500 yuan.

If it was an ordinary restaurant, even if they wanted to, they wouldn't dare to do it.

However, considering that Xiao Wen actually cooked for him, Zhou Xian, Zhuge Liang and his family, as well as his students, to eat. At most, he had to take care of Sun Shangxiang, Li Zicheng and Yang Xiu, these rich kids.

But no matter what, he didn't need to deal with those weird old turtles in his previous life — just like Xiao Wen, who he remembered had the ability to distinguish the difference in taste between plain beef and yellow beef. When they were experimenting in the dorm to prove that their dorm mate wasn't bragging, Xiao Wen looked at him as if he was looking at a monster.

Of course, even though the Guangzhou roommates admired him, they were still very calm.

After all, there were quite a few of these types of old geezers in the capital of delicacies.

In the kitchen, Xiao Wen took the clean cabbage, tore off some of its fine fascia, and boiled it with water.

Many people didn't notice cabbage's fascia, and even before Xiao Wen saw the recipe, he didn't know it was important.

However, Xiao Wen knew that if there were any ingredients that didn't tear off the fascia, it would indeed affect the taste.

”So there's this kind of care in boiling water cabbage.” Zhou Xian was slightly surprised when she saw Xiao Wen tear the fascia of the cabbage off.

On her face, there seemed to be the words, ”This kind of operation?” These words... Plus a black question mark.

However, he soon understood the reason behind Xiao Wen's actions.

After all, in the past, when she cooked meat on her spine, she would pay attention to it and tear off the fascia.

Although Xiao Wen's family had been poor for a period of time in the past, this kind of waste of meat wasn't very appropriate for that period of time.

However, their Xiao family was also rich, so Zhou Xian couldn't help but keep this habit.

After cooking the cabbage, Xiao Wen fished it out.

Zhou Xian was prepared. She took out a basin of ice water and put it on the side of the stove.

”After boiling the cabbage, you must soak it in ice water for a while, otherwise there will be a strange smell.” Xiao Wen explained.

Zhou Xian nodded.

Following that, Xiao Wen began to prepare the soup.

”Boiling water cabbage is the most important ingredient in soup. If there is the slightest problem in the process of making soup, then all the effort that has been put into a few hours might have been wasted.” Xiao Wen said solemnly.

Then, he put the ham, chicken, duck, pig's feet, dried shellfish, and other ingredients into the soup.

”Ham is not beautiful, chicken soup is not fresh, duck soup is not open, pig feet are not thick. Regardless of which ingredients are missing, this soup will make boiled water cabbage imperfect. ” Xiao Wen said.

”Where did you learn these things?” Zhou Xian asked curiously as she watched Xiao Wen operate skillfully in front of the stove.

In the past, she had never seen Xiao Wen cook so proficiently.

No!

It could be said that in this world, even scholars rarely cooked.

After all, Confucianism has a saying about men being far from the kitchen. As for the other academies, besides the farmers, the Mo family, who were close to the commoners, there were also other schools of thought.

As a result, when Zhou Xian saw Xiao Wen operate the kitchen skillfully, she was quite curious.

However, Xiao Wen did not panic because of this sudden question.
