Lord: Married To A Countess At The Beginning

Gray had been in the kitchen before.

It's a large area with many stoves and stoves.

Compared with the kitchens of previous lives, there are not so many kitchen utensils in the kitchens of this world.

After all, stew reigns supreme in this world.

Chicken, duck and fish can be stewed.

Stew is easy and convenient.

Even nobles eat stew for eight out of ten meals.

As for the rest, there is only roast meat, mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, pan-fried steaks, and boiled peas...

Gray thought about it while feeling uncomfortable in his stomach.

In fact, if the chef could handle the ingredients properly, remove the fishy smell when necessary, add salt when necessary, and give the food a rest, Gray wouldn't be so resentful.

The maids in the kitchen were chatting. They just said that a maid's husband was getting worse and worse recently, and the maid was very dissatisfied.

Women in this era seem to have so many topics to talk about.

No matter what we talk about, it always seems to come back to men.

Gray listened to the maids laughing and joking in the kitchen, and then walked directly in.

Suddenly, the originally relaxed and happy atmosphere quickly fell silent.

The maids who were chatting about men just now were all startled, and stood up and lined up in a row with their necks hunched.

It was obvious that they were very nervous, especially one of the elderly maids.

The moment she saw Gray, her body stiffened.

She had heard before that Master Gray didn't seem to like the food she cooked.

She was very distressed about this and sometimes couldn't sleep all night long.

In order to research new dishes, she stews different ingredients together every day, hoping to find a better taste.

But researching new dishes is not easy.

In addition, she is already in her sixties, which is very old. Her energy is not as good as before, and her research on dishes will be very slow.

Miss Tina told her some time ago that Mr. Gray actually likes her food very much and eats a lot every time.

Let her not worry about work.

She was excited all day about this.

Then, in order to confirm Miss Tina's words, she secretly ran over to see Mr. Gray's eating status.

This sight made her heart freeze.

Miss Tina is right, Mr. Gray has a huge appetite and eats a lot of food at every meal.

But as a chef, she could tell that Gray really disliked the taste of food.

Mr. Gray eats a lot because of his own appetite, not because of the deliciousness of the food.

The old maid could clearly see the helplessness and disgust in Gray's eyes.

She understood at that time that the research on new dishes must continue.

Otherwise she will lose her job who knows when.

She has to research the food that Mr. Gray likes.

With this idea in mind, she has been working hard every day these days.

But she didn't expect that Gray would suddenly come to the kitchen.

She couldn't help but look at Gray anxiously.

Very scared to hear his name from Gray's mouth.

But Gray didn't care what others were doing.

After he came in, he immediately looked at the condiments near the stove.

To put it this way, it’s hard to put it into words.

Even the salt looks rough and of low purity, so you need to add a lot of salt every time you use it.

As for other peppers, there are relatively few Sichuan peppercorns.

Spices are more expensive than salt, and are as valuable as gold. These condiments can only be seen in the kitchens of nobles.

The other thing is some coarse brown sugar, butter, and vinegar.

Not even onions, ginger, and garlic, nor soy sauce, oil, or MSG, let alone any sauces.

Gray was speechless, the condiments in this world were so monotonous.

No wonder he always finds certain foods tasteless.

Fortunately, because Gray was dissatisfied with the food, he went to find some seasonings through merchants, especially emphasizing the importance of onions, ginger, and garlic.

The results were not bad and a similar replacement was found.

Those condiments cannot be said to be exactly the same as in the previous life, but at least the taste and effect are very similar. He has already asked people to go to the storage room of the castle to get them.

After looking at the condiments, Gray went to look at today's ingredients.

Fortunately, there is a place like an ice cellar in Rose Castle, which is very convenient for storing ingredients, which also means that the ingredients in the castle are relatively abundant.

Not only beef, mutton and pork, but also chicken, duck and fish.

There are also some flesh and blood of high-level monsters.

Gray took a rough look around and decided what to cook.

Coconut chicken, garlic pork ribs, tomato scrambled eggs, spicy and sour potato shreds, plus a caramel stewed milk dessert.

After selecting the dishes, Gray immediately started working on it.

When the maids who were originally responsible for cooking saw Gray coming out with the ingredients, their eyes widened.

Gray made the coconut chicken first and opened several coconuts. Under the dumbfounded gaze of the maids, he processed the chicken three times and divided it into two parts, cleaned up the blood, and then put it into the earthen jar filled with coconut milk and started slowly. stew.

Then he started blanching the ribs without stopping.

I have to say that the kitchen utensils in this world are really awkward to use, but I can barely use them.

The garlic spareribs came out steaming hot in a short time.

Followed by tomato scrambled eggs, and then spicy and sour shredded potatoes.

After finishing all these dishes, coconut chicken is ready too.

Gray asked people to bring all these dishes out, and then started to make a caramel stew for Anna using brown sugar, milk and eggs.

The entire cooking process is because Gray is a magician and has a strong control over the elements. Whether he is cooking or making desserts, he adjusts the temperature very accurately, and because he can adjust the temperature of the food, this coke is The sugar stewed milk also cools down very quickly.

After finishing everything, Gray glanced at the maids who were stunned, and gave Tina another look.

He did a lot when he was just cooking, so he left some of each dish in the kitchen.

It's time to give these maids a little gourmet shock.

What is food? This is food!

"You can try the dishes I cook. I have already told you that the taste of your dishes is really bad. I have to give you a taste. I hope you will make some progress in the future."

After saying that, Gray took the dessert and left the kitchen.

Tina glanced at the direction Gray left, and then glanced at the hot dish Gray left behind.

She thought about it, then stayed.

Gray was going to have dinner with Lady Anna, so there was no need for her to disturb them at this time.

Just in time to try Gray’s craft.

In fact, Tina had been shocked by the aroma of food that she had never smelled before when Gray was cooking.

She couldn't believe that a nobleman could actually cook.

It’s not just a simple barbecue or a casual big pot stew.

But those exquisite and beautiful foods.

This was the first time she had seen such delicious, delicious food.

If she hadn't seen Gray cooking with her own eyes, she would have thought it was the masterpiece of the master chef.

With a hint of mixed emotions, Tina walked to the dishes, picked up a piece of ribs with a fork, and put it into her mouth.

Suddenly a wonderful taste bloomed on her taste buds.

An indescribable smell of meat made her eyes widen.

Delicious, a taste that I have never tasted before.

Then there is the coconut chicken with a strong coconut aroma and elastic meat.

Gray also made dipping sauces for them.

The sweetness of the coconut milk blended perfectly with the chicken, and paired with the secret sauce, Tina couldn't help but eat a few more pieces.

Not to mention the sour and delicious tomato scrambled eggs, which is a great dish to go with the meal. After Tina finished eating, she took out the bread directly, and she was going to make dinner here.

Gray's cooking is so delicious.

When the other maids saw that Tina was eating so well, they all looked at Tina pitifully.

Tina looked at the table full of dishes and then at them. She smiled and said, "Come together, you can also try these delicious foods."

The maids immediately swarmed in. After tasting the dishes, all of them opened their eyes wide and fell into a state of shock.

What a delicacy this is!

So delicious!

The old maid immediately fell into a downtime state. She finally understood what kind of delicious food Gray wanted.

This kind of delicacy is simply not something that chefs of this era can make.

She understood that if she had not personally tasted these delicious foods in her life, she would never believe that such delicacies existed that made her soul tremble.

She also understood that she would never be able to make this kind of delicacy even if she studied it until she died.

At this moment, she was finally convinced, and she even felt in awe of Gray's cooking skills.

She was very grateful to Gray. If it weren't for this adult, she wouldn't have been able to taste this delicious food in her life.
