The method was not difficult. The most important thing was to mix the appropriate amount of seasoning.
The Qi Min Essentials Technique describes the recipe in detail. The seven ingredients required are garlic, ginger, salt, white plum, orange peel, cooked chestnut meat, and rice.
Among them, the most difficult one was the white plum. The white plum had to be soaked in salt water for the night. The next day, it had to be placed under the sun. Only after repeating this dozens of times could the white plum be obtained.
After Ji Zhao prepared the ingredients one by one, she chose half of the fish slices and boiled them in the water.
"The dish is already complete. Why are you scalding the fish? Won't this ruin the taste?" Chef Dong couldn't help but ask with a frown when he saw her actions.
