Li Nianfan was in the palace. When he saw what Daji brought back, he was surprised. "Wow, what a fat duck. Is it the Flying Duck Emperor?"
Daji said, "Master, this duck demon was rude outside. It even said that it wanted to marry my sister. It has been executed."
Li Nianfan nodded. He smiled and said, "Ha-ha-ha, I was just thinking about what to eat. Roast duck is definitely one of the best delicacies. Such a plump duck, I'm sure it won't taste bad."
He couldn't help but sigh. How familiar was this scene?
He remembered when he brought Nanna out to play and met the Glass Dragon. Similarly, they met a black fish demon who wanted to marry them. Then, it became a pot of pickled fish. Now, they met a Flying Duck demon who wanted to marry them. If nothing went wrong, it should be a plate of roast duck.
These demons always sacrificed themselves without hesitation to become food. They even used the same excuse. It was really touching.
Li Nianfan said, "It's getting late. Let's find an empty place. This time, I'll cook a delicious meal for all of you! Little Daji, Huo Feng, help me out. "
Daji nodded. "Yes, yes. Yes, Young Master."
Although their culinary skills were not as good as Li Nianfan's, they could still help out.
Little Fox's eyes lit up when she heard about delicious food. She said eagerly, "Brother-in-law, let's go. I'll bring you to my back garden."
Kunpeng and Mosquito Taoist were Li Nianfan's old friends, so they followed. As for the other Demon Emperors, they could only be envious.
However, they knew that they did not have the right to be by the expert's side.
In the back garden.
Li Nianfan asked Daji to defrost the duck's ice sculpture while he prepared the other ingredients.
Although roast duck was called roast, it was different from other roast food. For example, roast chicken and roast pig were eaten directly by hand. However, roast duck was different. Roast duck was naturally fatty, and it was easy to get sick of it. Therefore, roast duck had another name. It was called slice-skin duck.
It was called slicing a roast duck with a knife. Then, it was added with skin, garlic, cucumber, and other ingredients. It could perfectly remove the fatty taste of roast duck and bring out the fragrance of roast duck to its fullest. It was definitely a very powerful gourmet invention.
If the sliced duck was considered a top-notch delicacy, then at least half of the credit was due to the inconspicuous skin and garlic white.
Mosquito Taoist and Kunpeng had nothing to do. They asked nervously, "Lord Saint, that … Is there anything we can do?"
Li Nianfan thought for a moment. "Why don't we boil some water and scald the duck to pluck its feathers?"
After a pause, he said, "Oh yeah, I wonder if there are any jujube trees around. If there aren't, some other fruit trees will do too. We need them to roast the duck."
Fruit trees had little smoke and were good at burning. Most importantly, they emitted a fragrance that would not ruin the duck's taste. If it was pine or cypress, the taste would be much worse.
Kunpeng said enthusiastically, "Ah, okay. I'm good at plucking duck!"
Mosquito Taoist stood up and said excitedly, "I'll go find some jujube trees."
They were happy to have something to do. They hurried to do it.
Li Nianfan did not have a grill, but he had an immortal with him. It was no problem for him to build one.
Everyone worked together. It was very efficient.
Li Nianfan put the skin he made aside to steam. At the same time, he started to process the featherless duck. The necessary procedure was to poke the plug into the duck's anus. After that, he had to fill it with soup and condiments to prevent it from flowing out.
This required skill. It was easy to destroy the duck meat. However, it was not a problem for Li Nianfan.
Then he began to fill the duck with soup.
It was mainly boiled water. He could also add some pepper water, cooking wine, and so on. He had to stop when the duck was seventy or eighty percent full.
The purpose of this was to prevent the duck from losing water due to roasting. It could also make the duck's skin swell without softening. It was a very delicate process.
The most important step was to officially start roasting the duck.
The reason why it was important was that roast duck had a very high fire control requirement. From the moment it entered the oven, there was a fire control requirement. Moreover, every part of the roast duck was subjected to different degrees of heat. For example, the left back of the duck needed twelve minutes, but the right back only needed seven minutes.
Huo Feng and the others naturally controlled the temperature of the roast duck. Li Nianfan kept an eye on the changes of the duck and turned it appropriately.
Kun Peng and Mosquito Taoist were slightly relieved. They looked at the roast duck that was gradually turning red due to the roasting. They could not help but sigh.
The Flying Duck Emperor was a great demon in the Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal Realm. During this period of time, he had put a lot of pressure on the two of them. However, he had become like this. Not only was he unrecognizable, but he was also emitting a tempting fragrance. No one would be able to recognize him.
It was really a duck that was not the same.
They looked at Li Nianfan's serious face. He was turning the duck carefully in less than a minute. He was so focused.
There were only a few things in the world that could make the expert so attentive.
Flying Duck Emperor, although you're dead, you should be proud of yourself in the Chaos to have the expert pay so much attention to you.
While he was sighing, the aroma of the roast duck suddenly underwent a qualitative change. Layers of golden grease seeped out of the duck skin. Coupled with the fact that the duck skin itself had become crispy and hard, it looked fresh yellow and crispy. It shone brightly, making one's appetite soar.
Fragrant!
Very fragrant.
Compared to other roasted food, the aroma of the roast duck was not the most pungent. However, it was definitely very unique. It was mouth-watering and fragrant.
"It's almost done."
Li Nianfan smiled. He took the roast duck out of the oven and looked at it casually. Then, he brushed the sesame oil that he had prepared on the side to brighten the skin. At the same time, he removed the soot and added to the aroma.
In this way, the roasting process of the roast duck was complete.
Kun Peng and Mosquito Taoist's eyes lit up and they were restless. Li Nianfan smiled slightly. "Don't worry. It's not time to eat yet."
As he spoke, he took out a knife and twirled it around. Then, he gently danced on the perfect roast duck.
He didn't cut the meat directly. Instead, he cut the duck's skin. The pieces of orange-red duck skin were crispy and fragrant, and sparkled with a sparkling light. Every piece was square and of the same size, and they were arranged neatly.
Daji asked curiously, "Childe, can the roast duck's skin be eaten separately?"
"Hahaha, little Daji is so smart. This is the essence of the roast duck!"
Li Nianfan laughed. "Although the duck meat is delicious, the duck's skin is not inferior. It is enough to be listed as a delicacy. This is the right way to eat roast duck."
After a pause, he smiled and said, "If you don't believe me, you can try a piece first. Of course, dip it in the white sugar. The taste will be amazing."
"Brother-in-law, I want to eat it. I want to eat it!"
The little fox was not polite to Li Nianfan at all. It could not wait and immediately jumped over. Of course, it could not take the chopsticks. It carefully picked up a piece of crispy duck skin with its small claws, dipped it in the white sugar quickly, and put the whole piece into its mouth.
