Next, fry the sliced fish in hot oil until golden brown, then remove and set aside.
Sauté pine nuts, green and red peppers, carrots, and other ingredients until fragrant. Finally, drizzle with a special sweet and sour sauce prepared by the Lord Mansion's chef, toss the fish into the pot and mix well with the sauce, and sprinkle with the fried pine nuts.
This process requires attention to details such as heat, timing, and ingredient proportions to create a delicious squirrel pepper fish with perfect color, aroma, and taste.
Isn't it often said that such a feudal transitional society can accelerate personal corruption to so extent?
The transition from feudal to capitalist is undoubtedly evolutionary.
The reason is quite simple. In the orthodox old era dynasties, the concept of exploitation barely existed.
Exploitation was akin to stealing, cheating, and imposing burdens, but at least there was a hidden "labor exchange" to serve as the transition.
And those dynasties buried in history, no matter which side, could be described more as robbery than theft.
The continent of Divine Blossom is now in a transition period, where traditional nobles still have a profound influence on ordinary people.
Even though Kael bears much goodwill towards his subordinates, it does not stop many of the service staff in the Lord Mansion from speculating on his every action.
It's quite embarrassing to say that this squirrel pepper fish could achieve such a level. It was just because one day after enjoying this delicacy, I unconsciously praised it while recalling so experiences from my previous life in the Human Federation.
Just a casually spoken sentence spread to the chef, who imdiately took it to heart.
A good squirrel pepper fish should be golden in color, crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside.
When eating, you should first place the squirrel pepper fish on a plate, then pour over a rich sweet and sour sauce, and drizzle with steaming hot pine nuts. At this mont, a fragrant aroma wafts through the air.
Such skilled craftsmanship is the result of the chefs at the Lord Mansion taking it to heart.
It turns out that humans have a universal sensory connection to food.
In a place that gathers mages from different duchies, should a related delicacy receive near-universal praise, and soone suddenly jumps out shouting, "It's not as good as our army pot and kimchi," it is likely that they hail from sowhere less civilized.
Fortunately, the mages visiting today all have a sense of taste.
Even if trying squirrel perch for the first ti, when eating, they instinctively start by tasting the crispy pine nuts, then a bite of the tender pepper fish, and pick so aromatic and spicy green and red peppers, providing a fresh and rich flavor.
The sweet and sour taste of the sauce makes the whole dish stand out even more, making it unforgettable.
Even the Bartlet Monarch curiously inquired about the inspiration behind this dish.
Bartlett: I, the Magic Monarch, Curious Baby.jpg
While surprised that Bartlett would be interested in the story behind the food, Kael went on to explain the origin of the dish.
"It's said that this dish originally originated from a city in the settlent of Sangtopia's people.
There was a small restaurant there called "Squirrel House."
Because the fish slices in this dish were topped with pine nuts and had a golden color, resembling a squirrel, it was nad "Squirrel Perch."
In eras that cannot be precisely verified, perch was an extrely precious ingredient, often enjoyed only by the royal family or nobles.
And squirrel perch, as a dish with historical significance, also beca widespread among the people of Sangtopia.
Of course, no one has ever been to the divine kingdom of Sangtopia; these words are just hearsay.
What matters is that after spreading to the Lancaster, it was indeed adapted into a dish worthy of praise, isn't that enough?"
Kael said with a smile.
In conversation, it was inevitable that a bit of emotion slipped in.
Stories that didn't dare to ntion even the place nas of the Human Federation, and recipes where the dish nas were changed, sotis still made Kael reminisce about his past life.
Looking back now, he suddenly felt that he had left the Human Federation a long, long ti ago, so long that it was almost beyond recall.
Even though the Human Federation could be considered his holand, he could never return.
Fortunately, he wasn't one to dwell on sentintal reflections of past seasons, quickly suppressing the surplus of emotions.
He turned and said with a laugh to the Bartlet Monarch: "Compared to this, I initially thought you would co alone, but didn't expect you to bring along your teacher and nurous colleagues to the Lancaster Territory."
The Bartlet Monarch huffed softly, a hint of learned dissatisfaction in his expression, and said:
"Under normal circumstances, we wouldn't allocate so many people here, but this ti, apart from my personal wish, they are here mainly to discuss so matters related to mages with you."
Kael was montarily confused, and curiously asked: "Oh? What matters require colleagues from the Mage Association to co together?
Please tell, and if it's sothing I can assist with, I won't hesitate!"
The implication was that if the matter wasn't reasonable, it shouldn't be brought up to damage everyone's feelings.
Several mages exchanged glances and chuckled lightly, saying:
"Don't worry, Viscount Helois, we are here this ti mainly to seek your opinion concerning the magic knowledge-sharing platform you previously ntioned."
