Chapter 365: Baron Goos' suggestion (10,000-word chapter)(2/5)
As soon as the potato strips were immersed in the boiling oil, they started to tingle instantly.
This is very familiar to Zhao Xun.
He used to not only fry some potatoes, but also fry French fries, croquettes, etc.
Fried food is the most pleasurable food.
No matter who you are, once you taste the taste of fried food, you will never be able to stop eating it.
As for the third senior brother Long Qingquan, he was in a completely different state.
This was the first time he saw someone frying food in front of him, but he was very curious.
For the third senior brother Long Qingquan, seeing Zhao Xun frying potatoes with his own eyes was a great relief.
It is indeed very satisfying to see the originally thin potato strips become fluffy and soft after being coated in flour in the oil pan.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... Junior Brother, your techniques are really becoming more and more professional. If I hadn't known that you were the heir apparent of Duke Cheng, I would have really doubted whether you were a cook by trade."
In this era, the emphasis is on the gentleman staying away from the chef.
Scholars generally disdain going into the kitchen to cook.
If Zhao Xun's arrival hadn't changed everyone's view, I'm afraid most people in the academy would still think that being a cook is an extremely hopeless job.
But the arrival of Zhao Xun changed everyone's view.
Now in their minds, cooking is a very important thing.
"Oh, Third Senior Brother, I'm overly praised. I'm actually not as good as you said, really..."
Zhao Xun didn't know what to say for a while.
"Third Senior Brother, why don't you come and give it a try? When frying the potatoes, you must pay attention to them and don't fry them too hard. Otherwise, oil will easily splash out and your taste may be affected.
We don’t expect to be perfect, but we still have to maintain the standards we should have.”
In fact, there are two methods of frying and frying potatoes, the only difference is the amount of oil added.
Zhao Xun felt that since the senior brothers and sisters in the academy had never tasted it, they might as well try both flavors to see which one they liked better.
No matter which kind the senior brothers and sisters in the academy prefer, Zhao Xun can satisfy their appetites.
Of course, the premise of everything is that the senior brothers and sisters in the academy can pick one.
If they don't like both, Zhao Xun has no good solution.
"Well, don't worry, little junior brother, you can rest assured that I, Long Qingquan, can cook."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan patted his chest confidently and said: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, you can go and see next."
...
...
Facts have proved that the third senior brother Long Qingquan really did not brag.
Judging from the current situation, third senior brother Long Qingquan's degree of completion is still quite high.
The potato zacha is quite good both in appearance and taste.
Zhao Xun only tasted it and gave it a very high evaluation.
"It's very good. Third Senior Brother, it's very good that you can cook the food to this extent for the first time."
Zhao Xun first praised Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan, and then changed the topic: "But Third Senior Brother, have you noticed a small problem? That is, when you make fried potatoes, it is easy to overcook them.
Situation. This is a problem of controlling the heat. If the heat is not controlled properly, the problem will be quite big, and it will affect the taste of the dishes. Anyway, I think it is better for you to stir-fry, because when frying the potatoes, the heat is too low.
It’s relatively easy to control.”
"Um..."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan was quite familiar with Zhao Xun's routines. As soon as he heard Zhao Xun say this, he knew that there must be something wrong with his fried potatoes.
Otherwise, my younger brother wouldn't be so willing to suppress his desires before he rises to the occasion.
"Okay, then I'll try frying the potatoes again and see what the main difference is compared to frying."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan scratched his head and said: "Junior brother, I have to thank you this time. Without you, I would definitely not be able to realize what my problem is."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan is an extremely proud person, and he naturally knows this well.
He was also very grateful that Zhao Xun could always be there to give him guidance.
"Haha, we are all a family, so we are talking about it like this."
Zhao Xun spread his hands and said: "Also, third senior brother, if you can prepare the dishes well, it is also a blessing for us. Wouldn't it taste good to take a bite of the ready-made food?"
...
...
"Your Highness, the Holy Knights from the Kingdom of Casper in the continent of Ellen Lore have recently sent some sporadic signals."
Baron Goos paused very respectfully towards Prince Harry Botsman to express his respect.
"Well..."
Prince Harry Postman was slightly surprised.
For him, this can be regarded as the best news in recent days.
They had lost contact with the Holy Knights before.
Anyway, as long as there is news, it is a good thing.
What I'm afraid of is that I can't be contacted all the time, so that the two sides will become more and more indifferent.
There may even be a feud over this.
Moreover, there are only some traitors among the Holy Knights, and not all members of the Holy Knights have betrayed the kingdom.
Anyone who dares to contact them at this moment must be a loyal party and will not have any bad intentions.
"Who sent the message?"
"It's Armeniaca."
Baron Guos said without hesitation: "Armenileca is a very loyal person, I'm sure of this. Your Highness, Armeniaca said that the Holy Knights have suffered heavy losses, and now they are divided and unable to unite.
Grouping. This is a very fatal thing. Because the inability to gather means that they are separated from each other. A group of Holy Knights has nothing to fear, but once the members are separated from each other, they will face
You will be at a loss when your opponent makes a surprise attack."
"..."
Prince Harry Botzman's face is very cold.
"You mean, it's still impossible to know who betrayed the Holy Knights?"
He thought that this Armenian card could bring such useful information, but now it seems that it is all false.
"Yes. At present, it is impossible to figure out all this."
Baron Goos looked somewhat depressed.
"Maybe we still need time, only time can test everything."
"Time, time, the most lacking thing now is time. We can't help anything in this great world. I'm really worried about my father's safety."
Prince Harry Botzman couldn't keep calm after hearing this.
This is indeed a very special period right now.
The greatest responsibility of the Holy Knights is to protect the king and protect the safety of the royal family members.
Once someone in the Holy Knights rebels and the Holy Knights are dispersed, the entire royal family will face danger.
If Prince Harry Botzman is in Casper Kingdom at the moment, he can still be of some help.
But the problem is that he is not in the kingdom at all right now. His help to the kingdom and his father here are almost zero.
This is the last thing Prince Harry Botzman wants to see.
"Your Highness, please stay calm. Anger will not solve any problem. On the contrary, it will make people in a state of madness and cannot extricate themselves."
"..."
Prince Harry Botzman was in a state of near collapse.
"What can I do? What can I do now? I can't do anything, I can't do anything."
Prince Harry Botsman obviously couldn't listen to any persuasion.
He was in extreme confusion.
"Your Highness, you must calm down. After all, there are so many human beings in this world waiting for your leadership. Soon the Corruptors will provoke a war. At that time, you will play a decisive role."
Well...
Prince Harry Botzman basically calmed down after hearing this.
I have to say that the current situation is really frustrating.
To be continued...
