Generally, as a banquet, one dish is indispensable, and a set meal can be served in one go, which is inevitable that it is a bit shabby. However, Cao Cao needs to save money and invest in war and people's livelihood, so some extravagant behaviors need to be reduced.

For example, in terms of ingredients, since you can use low-grade ingredients to cook delicious food, there is no need to buy high-grade ingredients in order to pursue better delicious food. Simply put, the chef's potential is not completely squeezed out, and it is also very necessary. Even if the conditions allow, she will not waste such unjust money before the conditions allow.

A large bowl of beef covered rice, three small plates of salted plums, a plate of bean paste and vegetables, and a bowl of seaweed egg flower soup.

It looks very simple, just like finding a shop on the side of the road and then spending 20 or 30 yuan to buy a set meal. Such dishes are obviously a bit crude as a set meal for celebration banquets, and it is not a big deal that Cao Cao would say "simple food".

"Thank you lord!" The civil and military officials present replied one after another.

No one will really treat it as simple as simple food. Even if you haven't started eating it, the fragrance has already come to your face. The definition of deliciousness is not the ingredients, but the chef's craftsmanship. Otherwise, even if there are top-notch delicacies, it may be destroyed by an ignorant guy.

The real face was a bit ugly, probably Wei Xu. Others didn't know it, but he knew it very well because he had found these three cows.

He and Lu Bu are in-laws, and they are also relatives. With this identity, he got three cows and planned to sell them to earn some extra money, so he naturally hid them from others. However, a task was suddenly issued at that time, asking them to catch locusts, and the military orders were like mountains. As a result, it took three days to delay. Thinking that the beef was broken, he ignored it.

It was thirty days in the blink of an eye, and the beef there was naturally very bad. But it was rumored that the beef on the rice bowl tonight came from the three cows, and Wei Xu felt disgusted.

"What's wrong?" Song Xian next to him looked a little strange when he saw Wei Xu's expression, so he couldn't help but ask.

"It's nothing... I heard that this beef has been left for thirty days... The beef has been left for thirty days, but it's not completely broken? How can I eat it? Cao Cao wasn't deliberately humiliating us, right?" Wei Xu said pretending to be worried.

"Follower..." Hou Cheng on the other side shook his head, "They also eat this kind of meat!"

Indeed, if it is bad meat, then they will eat it with them. Then wouldn’t it be a fool? This was something you could figure out by thinking about it, but who told me that this beef was made by Wei Xu himself. The more he knew about the situation of this beef, the more he was concerned!

"What's the point of thinking about it?" Song Xian also thought it was the reason, "Just eat it directly!"

After saying that, he picked up the chopsticks and reached to the beef on the rice. He originally thought that it would be a bit too big to pick it up. Who knew that the chopsticks would cut the meat by forcefully cutting it open like this.

"So soft, is this really beef?" Song Xian exclaimed immediately. They from the Bingzhou Army had many opportunities to eat beef. It was because of their understanding of beef that they were so surprised. The beef in the impression was deducted from the part that had just been slaughtered within an hour or two, and the harder it became, the more it became.

But why, the beef in front of me is so soft, as if it has no tendons. This softness is softer than the fresh beef you slaughtered now!

What does this feel like? In fact, many people should be familiar with such mature meat...

For example, some Korean paper barbecue, self-service barbecue restaurants, etc. The steak meat used is frozen meat itself, but it may be stored for too long. Anyway, it is this kind of factor, so it gradually becomes mature meat during this period.

After roasting, you can clearly feel the thick gravy on it and the tender feeling. Some people may wonder if it has been marinated with tender meat powder. In fact, it is thawed and served. How can I have time to add tender meat powder? It is the result of this low-temperature ripening that makes the gravy soft and tender and delicious, and since there is no tendons, it will be very comfortable to chew.

Of course, since this is not a dry ripening method, the flavor will be worse, for example, the taste of beef will be slightly lighter. In addition, there seems to be some miscellaneous flavors in a vague way. However, when the dry ripening method, this miscellaneous flavor will turn into a fragrant nutty flavor.

The beef used for dinner is already mature beef, so it can avoid the steps of pounding and removing tendons. After marinating with onions, the meat will become softer. So to this point, you can cut it with chopsticks directly and forcefully.

"The rotten meat is of course soft..." Wei Xu's expression changed and he muttered in an inauspicious voice. The flesh of the rotten meat will completely turn into pus, and it will of course be soft and rotten when clamped in this way, but the concept is completely different.

Hearing Song Xian say that, he was even more afraid to put off his chopsticks.

"What did you say just now?" Hou Cheng seemed to hear something.

"It's nothing, you eat, you eat..." Wei Xu said hurriedly.

"Wow, what is this!" At this moment, Bian Linglong, not far away, had already eaten a bite of beef. To be honest, this kind of meat that could be cut with force made her very curious. Although she was a little worried about the rumors, she still plucked up the courage to take a bite. Because of this bite, she suddenly screamed.

"Eat...this...this is drunk!" Bian Linglong couldn't believe what she felt just now.

The meat enters the mouth, then turns into a delicious concentrate, and then flows into the mouth without any obstacles, and then subconsciously swallows it. This is not eating meat at all, but "drinking" meat!

"The meat that can be drunk?!" Her words aroused the curiosity of many people. Everyone had heard that the meat that was stored tonight was rotten meat that had been stored for thirty days. Some people were a little worried, and some people didn't even dare to take off the chopsticks. After hearing Bian Linglong's words, when she saw that she had no other expressions, she immediately took off the chopsticks.

First of all, I was naturally frightened by the softness and tenderness of the meat. Then, the delicious meat and taste immediately triggered the second round of surprise.

"It can really be drunk!" Xiahou Dun couldn't believe the feeling he conveyed from his mouth.

"Because it's so delicious, I wish I could eat it directly into my stomach, and I even forgot to chew..." Cheng Yu said slowly. Unlike others, she held back the feeling of swallowing and chewing it slowly before she understood the taste. "This meat is indeed too soft, and the flavor of the beef is very strong. There is a vague smell of fresh acorn, which is indeed rare!"

"I can eat fifty kilograms of meat like this!" Dian Wei ate it with rice in big mouthfuls.

"The whole rice bowl was handled very well!" Lu Qian exclaimed, "The onion, beef and rice formed a good whole, and the gravy soaked in one-third of the rice. Even if you eat it simply, you will find it very delicious."

"If you need to add meat, scream!" Wang Yong also came forward at the right time, "There are still many!"
