The First Hot Pot in the Primordial World
Once everyone had prepared everything, Ye Xuan was ready to begin.
First, cut the chili peppers into sections, slice the ginger, and then prepare the other spices that the King of Shang already had, such as Sichuan peppercorns, garlic, and coriander.
Next, heat oil in a wok, then add scallions, Sichuan peppercorns, chili peppers, garlic, and other ingredients, and stir-fry carefully.
The aroma quickly filled the air, then the crayfish were added and stir-fried over high heat.
After the crayfish were completely coated with the seasoned oil, an appropriate amount of Jade Nectar was poured in.
These are all spirit wines personally brewed by Su Daji, far superior to the so-called beer of later generations.
The irresistible aroma was quickly released by the Jade Nectar, and before long, the extremely spicy crayfish was ready to be served.
Although it lacks some spices, hot pot base, and many other seasonings compared to other crayfish, its advantage lies in its freshness. The quality of crayfish in this era is vastly different from that of the past.
The food Ye Xuan personally prepared was clearly far superior to what he had eaten in his previous life.
"You two come and have a taste. This is some good stuff. I've always loved this. One bite is numbing, spicy, and incredibly satisfying. I guarantee you two will thoroughly enjoy it."
Although Su Daji was a powerful sorcerer with profound magical abilities, she had never seen such a wondrous delicacy before.
Wushuang was the same; there were countless lobsters in the sea, and she had eaten them before.
However, she had never eaten this type of small freshwater lobster before.
Curious, the two picked one up and, imitating Ye Xuan, began to eat it.
First, pull off the shrimp head, then hold the shrimp tail and suck hard; in a swift motion, the incredibly tender shrimp meat is sucked into their mouths.
The intense, spicy, and fiery sensation immediately amazed the two of them.
"So numbing, so spicy! This numbing and spicy flavor is truly irresistible."
"Why are these crayfish so fresh? I never imagined that such an ordinary ingredient could be made so delicious. It's really strange."
"Your Majesty is truly a genius! This thing may look ugly, but it tastes so delicious."
The two women only tried one, and it made them feel incredibly excited.
It was an unprecedented taste experience; the numbing, spicy, and explosive sensation was naturally extremely satisfying for them.
After finishing one, they immediately started eating the next, and for a moment they found themselves unable to stop.
Seeing how naive and unsophisticated the two were, Ye Xuan couldn't help but feel smug.
It's true that food these days is quite bland.
The variety of food options can be described as extremely simple.
They either boil, bake, or even steam; stir-frying is very rare.
Now that Ye Xuan had suddenly created such a numbing, spicy, and extremely delicious dish, it was naturally irresistible to them, and it could even be said that it broadened their horizons.
"These crayfish are just an appetizer. Next, I'll make you a hot pot so you can really enjoy yourself."
As he spoke, he began to prepare the hot pot himself.
Although gourmet food was extremely scarce in this era, all kinds of meat and vegetables were simply delicious.
The freshness of meat and vegetables in later generations is far inferior to that of today.
Various delicious meats, such as venison, mutton, and fatty beef, have been thinly sliced and are ready for use.
A variety of extremely fresh vegetables were also washed and arranged on platters.
Then, they used a very spicy deer bone broth, made with chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, coriander, and many other seasonings, as the base for hot pot.
Although making the dipping sauce was a little troublesome, it didn't stump him.
Using the sesame seeds they already had, they quickly made sesame paste. In addition, they also used the soybean paste they already had to make chili oil, minced ginger, minced garlic, chive blossom sauce, and many other condiments.
These things may be a little complicated, but they are clearly not difficult for any modern person.
In addition to these, there's the precious aged vinegar. Although these items are still somewhat limited, they're more than enough.
Not long after, the first hot pot in ancient times was born.
Ye Xuan quickly beckoned the two women to prepare to begin.
A large pot was placed in an open space, and beneath the pot were flames created by Ye Xuan using magic.
The pot was still simmering with deer bone soup, and he demonstrated and taught the two how to use it.
"Quickly dip all the ingredients in the pot, then take them out and dip them in their respective sauces. It's incredibly fresh, so try it!"
He then took the lead, picked up a piece of fatty beef, dipped it in the pot, and put it in his mouth to savor it carefully.
It was indeed that extremely familiar taste------
It was indeed the same extremely familiar formula.
Now that he has transmigrated to the Primordial World, he is actually tasting this familiar flavor again, which moves him to tears.
Now that we can even enjoy hot pot, what can't we achieve?
The only downside was that there was no beer.
There's spicy lobster and hot pot, but no beer, which is definitely a drawback.
Fortunately, there was the Jade Nectar brewed by Su Daji.
This Jade Nectar is said to have been brewed by Su Daji using the essence of many spiritual roots and the dew from countless flowers.
It was even more delicious than the legendary Hundred Flowers Brew, which naturally made Ye Xuan extremely fond of it.
The two women naturally followed suit and started eating as well.
The very first bite was enough to make the two of them gasp in surprise.
The fiery and fragrant flavor stimulated their taste buds, making it truly irresistible for the two of them.
They had never tasted such delicious food before!
The three of them fussed around the hot pot for a while, and finally, late at night, they were satisfied with their meal and drinks.
Looking at the two beautiful women, Ye Xuan felt a surge of passion rising within him.
Su Daji was the most beautiful woman among the Human Clan, possessing beauty no less than that of Nuwa.
Furthermore, after fusing with the Nine-Tailed Fox Lord of Green Mound, she possessed the captivating charm of the Nine-Tailed Fox, which indeed made it difficult for Ye Xuan to look away.
Wushuang was also a Four Seas beauty, Wushuang beauty unparalleled, and her otherworldly temperament captivated Ye Xuan.
They really want to take these two women right there and then, huh?
At that moment, he did indeed exhibit such unusual behavior.
These two women, in particular, seem to have this in mind.
It's almost midnight now, and not a single person has left.
This is practically a delicious treat that's been delivered right to my mouth!
But for some reason, a figure suddenly appeared deep within Ye Xuan's mind.
That was a figure whose beauty surpassed even the most Primordial World beings in the primordial world.
He couldn't help but recall that poem again.
"But one must possess alluring charm to move..."
"Retrieve Chang Le to serve the king-------"
Is this the deepest, most persistent obsession within my heart?
At this moment, Ye Xuan couldn't help but reveal a wry smile.
Thinking of that figure, Ye Xuan lost interest.
"Daji, it's getting late, you should go back and rest."
"Wushuang, supporting the orphan back to the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion."
Upon hearing this, both women showed obvious disappointment.
