Tasty food. Dara touched vegetables by both cheeks, as was the custom in the great northern empire. So it was very tasty. Shir-Ali, however, was surprised that the vegetables had an unusual texture, despite the heat treatment, the vegetables were able to retain their natural juice. He felt a spiritual essence in them. Energy filled his meridians.
Shir-Ali, his eyes are twirling, he finally, after decades of searching, have found real spirit fruits !!! Not somewhere in the mountain gorges, not in the tangled labyrinths of the old city, but right there in front of his nose!
These vegetables, his cousin grew! It often happens that what a person is looking for for a very long time in the nooks of the world, to be in front of his nose. He just looked bad. If you cannot find something, there is no need to rush and say - "This is not present"! It simply means that you were looking in the wrong place, you were looking for the wrong thing.
Now Shir-Ali was preoccupied with the search for ancient recipes that could contain methods of cultivating the forgotten direction of the "Culinary-Dao"!

Therefore, let us all overcome the difficulties of the path by ourselves. Who can do it? , will become stronger, wiser.
And after the hardships of the path, they will receive their reward "! This led to the fact that gourmets, cooks, everyone was forced to follow the path of hardening the body, who resisted being driven into the desert. Books with ancient cultivation techniques and recipes were burned. The best friend for keeping secrets, on paper, reed, papyrus, bamboo, is fire.
A wave of fire swept around the world, and many methods of the "Culinary Dao" were destroyed. But they managed to save something. A little 5-7 percent. This knowledge was hidden.
