At heart, Li Kui is a rough guy.

Since he is a rough man, he will not get tired of the stinky problem that only nobles have: "He never gets tired of fine food and fine food."

In the beginning, in Baizhang Village, he didn’t put much thought into food. At most, he got some bacon, sausages and other meats. The purpose was not to taste delicious, but to be easy to preserve. That’s how hunters are, when they are lucky, the meat

If you can't finish eating, the hunting dogs you raise can chew on the meaty bones. But when you are unlucky, not to mention the meat, you can't even eat the insects.

Li Kui couldn't go out hunting every day, he really considered himself a hunter.

Even if he stands at the top of the hunter community in Baizhang Village, there are times when he returns empty-handed.

It wasn't until he went to Yingzhou and then Yangzhou for two years that he started to pay attention to food. He had no choice but to set up a food stall. In addition to reciting poems and lyrics, he also wrote memorials and scolded the imperial court for its lack of food.

As for the former, it was for his own entertainment, while for the latter, no one in the court would pay attention to him. But apart from these hobbies, Su Shi only had one hobby: eating.

After Su Shi was demoted to Yazhou, he saw the locals eating rats and bats. He couldn't help but try them. He had a persistence in eating that shocked others.

When he was eating mice and bats, his status was the county magistrate. Even though the county magistrate was not a big official. In the Song Dynasty, the official salary was quite a lot, 40 guan a month. The status of Yazhou was very poor, and the official salary was less, only

30 Guan. The official income of the Song Dynasty was not only salary, but also food, clothing, subsidies, and even dozens of acres of land. This money was enough for him to live a prosperous life.

, it’s really not like eating mice.

Moreover, Su Shi's income as a county magistrate is different from that of an ordinary county magistrate, because officials in the Song Dynasty had at least two incomes, salary and grade salary. He was a direct bachelor with an additional 60 guan, and he also had the honorary title of San Dafu

, and you can add more money. It can be said that Su Shi's income, even if he was a county magistrate as small as possible, his total monthly income would be more than one hundred guan.

In the Song Dynasty, he had such a large income every month despite droughts and floods, which was enough for him to live a prosperous and decent life. Where did he need to eat meat like rats and bats?

There is only one reason, he is greedy.

There is no way. Although greed is not a disease, few people can control their mouths.

In the two years when Li Kui followed Su Shi, Su Shi was poisoned twice because of random eating. Once he ate flowers, and once he got plant tubers from someone who didn't know where. The reason is very simple, he eats flowers because they look good.

It must taste good... he was caught by accident. He ate the ugly tubers because he saw someone eating them. He stubbornly believed that good things are good at disguising, so he wanted to tear them off in disguise and discover the deliciousness... he was caught by his own misfortune.

In desperation, Li Kui could only introduce some delicacies he knew to Su Shi from time to time. For example, squirrel mandarin fish, pork ribs stewed with lotus root, sauced meat, crock pot fish and other meat dishes were introduced to him.

Su Shi, he almost mistakenly thought that he came to the Song Dynasty to be a cook.

As for the food Li Kui eats, he pays attention to smooth taste.

But even the seemingly homely taste has a special flavor after being cooked by Li Kui. Whether it tastes good or not, the heat is very important, the ingredients are very important, but no matter how important it is, it is not as important as the condiments.

As a hunter, Li Kui knows very well that many food ingredients look good, but they taste like nothing. Some are even worse than this. For example, the white stork is an animal that has no meat, is skinny and skinny, and tastes bad when eaten.

The meat was too old to chew. The fishy smell was really frustrating. Without a lot of seasonings, it was not appetizing at all.

Not only these, but also wild game will make people suspect that what they are eating is fake game from time to time.

Take wild boars for example. Some wild boars are not too spicy. At least you pay a little attention to cooking matters. After they are cooked, they are very delicious. But some wild boars go to the same mountains and forests to find food and drink the same mountain spring water. After they are finally killed, the meat

It's as if it's smelly and makes people sick.

Don't ask why.

Because the wild boar himself doesn’t know.

Why is it that other pork is delicious, but its taste is so hard to swallow?

Pang Wanchun was really surprised by Li Kui's ability to cook. Li Kui didn't like drinking very much. Who would have known that he was so tall and tall, but his alcohol capacity was only slightly better than that of his master, Su Shi?

But what kind of drinker does Su Shi have?

He was a god who could get himself drunk while standing next to a wine vat, commonly known as a glass of wine. He also liked to drink too much. Fortunately, Su Shi didn't make a fuss when he drank too much. But Li Kui knew that when he was drunk, he would be blocked by others and kill people.

There is nothing he can't do, stop the Buddha from being slaughtered, go up to the house, or go down to the river. The terrible thing is that when he wakes up, he doesn't know anything. He has to recognize everything others say, and he has a kind of anger at being offended, but

There is nowhere to reason.

But Li Kui brought wine with him as a gift, the best Ner'er Hong. Ner Hong is actually rice wine, and glutinous rice was used in later generations, but the more serious way is to use millet. But Ner Hong is so famous that merchants always like to describe their goods as

There is only one in the world, so it can be sold at a high price. The name Ner Hong just meets all their requirements for high-quality products.

People in the Song Dynasty loved wine, especially their pursuit of good wine and their high consumption. Pang Wanchun never imagined that Li Kui would use Nerhong as cooking wine for cooking. He had never heard of such a prodigal cook.

.

At least Pang Wanchun has never eaten such a satisfying meal. It seems simple, but it has a mouth-watering aroma that makes him unable to help himself. Even if the taste is not good, he still wants to eat Nuerhong worth dozens of dollars per jar.

Eat two more bowls.

The way Li Kui cooks the roasted hare immediately gives people a high-end visual experience.

There are no less than ten kinds of seasonings, and they are evenly spread with mutton fat. While applying oil, Li Kui also explained: "Rabbit doesn't have much fat, and it will easily turn into firewood when the fire is strong."

Pang Qiuxia stared at the rabbit on the fire and secretly said to her brother Pang Wanchun: "He must have been a cook."

"Don't talk nonsense... Both brothers are... capable people." Pang Wanchun followed Li Yun's statement and labeled the Li brothers as scholars, but until now, he couldn't see anything in them.

The characteristics of any scholar. Against my will, I can only use the word "capable" which is often used in polite words to describe Li Kui.

The little girl muttered, feeling irritated. She felt that her elder brother had become like a mother-in-law, which was not the case before. Pang Wanchun was one of the best in archery and was very famous in his hometown. Otherwise, he would not have been selected to join the Forbidden Army.

The Forbidden Army of the Song Dynasty is very difficult to enter. The income is high, there is leisure, especially the possibility of hereditary inheritance. It is the iron rice bowl occupation of the Song Dynasty. Pang Wanchun can get this job with his bow and arrow skills. No one will

Despise his ability.

People with ability are proud, and Pang Wanchun is the same. In the past, he never praised others, let alone covered up for others.

Barbecuing is an experience-based job. Even if you are an experienced person, something will go wrong if you are not careful, and burnt grilling is common.

However, Li Kui had a very good nose, quick reactions, and enough experience. Under the direct gazes of the Pang brothers and sisters, he roasted an originally ordinary rabbit into a meat that was charred on the outside, tender on the inside, and fragrant.

gourmet food.

Especially the addition of spices is simply mouth-watering and impossible to stop.

Li Yun glanced at the Pang brothers and sisters who were struggling to swallow their saliva, and said in his heart: "I, Li Yun, am also a person who has eaten delicacies, and I don't care to associate with these idiots who have never seen the world!"

"Here you go!" Li Kui tore off a rabbit leg from the rabbit and handed it to Pang Chunyan.

The latter took it in surprise, but thanked Li Kui a little shyly: "Thank you, Brother Li!"

"this is for you!"

"Thank you, brother!"

Under Li Yun's jealous gaze, Pang Wanchun also received a rabbit's hind legs.

For animals like rabbits, the meaty part is basically the hind legs. When he saw that his share was eaten, he suddenly became anxious. Is he still Li Kui's favorite clan brother?

If Li Yun asked Li Kui so stupidly, Li Kui wouldn't even think about it. He would slap Li Yun on the head and say angrily: "No!"

Therefore, Li Yun never asks.

But Li Kui is a very particular person. If there is delicious food, he will always leave a portion for him. For example, the hind legs of a rabbit. Unexpectedly, his privileges are shared with a pair of brothers and sisters who just met on the road. He feels empty in his heart.

Sad.

Finally, Li Yun was given a front leg. Can a rabbit’s front legs be called rabbit legs?

Is this a claw?

Li Kui held the rabbit skeleton and looked at Li Yun puzzled, why didn't this guy eat it?

In the past, when you barbecued yourself, this guy would definitely come up to grab you. But now you have changed your temper and become more sensible?

Li Yun stared at the rabbit leg in his hand, which was much smaller than the one held by the Pang brothers and sisters, and muttered: "I'm feeding the birds, just give me this little!"

Li Kui's ears are so sharp! He heard Li Yun's mumbling clearly. Forget it, I won't lecture Li Yun in front of outsiders. I have to save him some face. He tore off the other front leg and handed it to him.

Li Yun.

Just like a child, he can smile with a little favor, and the same is true for Li Yun's character. This guy was not like this originally. Ever since he followed Li Kui, it cannot be said that after he followed Li Kui, it was after he got to know Li Kui that he became more and more thoughtful.

The smaller.

But a small favor can impress him, which is very shameless.

"Second brother, be righteous!"

Li Kui ignored him and continued to eat on his own. He ate a lot of meat and drank a lot of wine. He was a bold and unrestrained person in the food industry. Li Kui was the same, but his way of eating was unacceptable to many people. After eating the meat, he chewed the bones.

They ate them all together, and very quickly. This kind of eating method was simply unheard of for Pang Wanchun.

Even Li Yun felt that Li Kui was too rude and an embarrassment to scholars.

Secretly reminding Li Kui: "Second brother, have you forgotten all the manners and manners taught by Aunt Wang?"

"Master's food is not as good as mine. What did Aunt Wang say? Rules are just tricks to fool people. If they are not in line with the original intention at all, why should we guard them? Besides, don't you know the benefits of eating bones?

I understand." Li Kui looked at Li Yun's size with disdain and said disdainfully.

Li Yun was confused. Are there any benefits to eating bones? Are you panicking if your teeth don’t chip?

"Second brother, don't lie to me."

Li Yun firmly didn't believe it. Because Li Kui lied to him so often that he became resistant. But what Li Kui said was true, and he also thought this method was very good, because eating bones replenished calcium. In this era of the Song Dynasty, drinking

It is simply unrealistic to supplement calcium with milk. Although Li Kui bought himself a lot of dairy products, he still couldn't eat enough.

With his current body size, coupled with his martial arts training, especially the use of first-class heavy weapons, is it abnormal to suspect that he is deficient in calcium?
