Back For My Daughter

In the kitchen, Ye Qian tossed the fat of the lamb and allowed it to melt.

After the fat was completely turned into liquid and was smoking he tossed a few spices like peppercorn, cloves, cinnamon and star anise.

Some who had known the previous recipe would know that this recipe was different from what the old man had told him that day.

This was because Ye Qian thought of making his own soup with similar ingredients but in a different manner, this was mostly used in the Cultivation World.

This was the basic method of cooking where one would not need much stuff.

He had learned this when he was on an adventure with a few membered of the Kshatriya Clan of the Bharat Descendent.

While he travelled with them, he understood that the people of the Kshatriya Clan would only carry spices with them whenever they went out and that was all, they would not even carry stuff like vegetables and other things.

Their principle was simple, which was to let the taste of the meat be the only ingredient that gives flavour to the stew.

They would only remove the fat of the slain animal and then melt it down while frying some of the spices they had brought with them, and then add the meat to it and let it roast for some time before adding water to it.

When Ye Qian asked them why would they still only carry the simple spices and not some spiritual herbs and vegetables with them in the Spatial Rings which everyone had, the leader of the Kshatriya Clan laughed out and then told Ye Qian about the real story about it.

This was a very long time ago when the ancestor of their tribe ascended in the Cultivation World through ascending.

At that time he was a warrior who cultivated the Dao of Battle, and the people from their clan would not carry the things which were heavy and would hinder their path.

At the time, when he ascended after getting the insight of the Dao of Battle, he only carried a few spices that were with him when he still had with him before.

The real reason was at that time the spices were mostly dried and had negligible weight to them and could be used in various ways, most spices were used as medicine in precarious situations when the availability of medicine was scarce.

But when the ancestor of the Kshatriya Clan ascended this was the only thing he had except his sword.

And he didn't have any Spatial Ring or Storage Ring as well.

So that way he would kill some low-level Spirit Beasts or normal animals and use the spices to add flavours to his meat.

And thus this tradition was passed down from his, and so every time the people of the Kshatriya Clan went out on a mission or battle though they had many Storage Rings with them they would only carry the spices and weapons in it and nothing else.

This was to give their tribute to their ancestor who survived these harsh conditions of the Cultivation Word then, even without knowing anything about it.

Ye Qian understood that the ancestor of the Kshatriya Clan was similar to him in a way, and he had a vague idea that he was also from the ancient times of the Earth.

Cause he had gone through the same conditions when he had been revived back in the body belonging to the person of the Cultivation World.

He had also gone through the same thing as the ancestor of the Kshatriya Clan but the only difference was Ye Qian had no experience in fighting or killing while the ancestor of the Kshatriya Clan didn't know anything about the Cultivation World when he ascended.

Ye Qian then continue to practice the way in which the Kshatriya Clan would cook their food while they went out on a battle or mission many a time and he found many ways in which he could use other herbs and vegetables to make it even better.

Ye Qian remembered his various adventures with the leader of the Lesser Heaven and smiled.

While he thought of this the spices in the fat started to release their flavours, a vibrant and sweet, spicy, aromatic smell roamed in the kitchen as the spiced were fried with the best way to get their flavours out.

The three ladies in the room has their eyes closed as they cherished the aroma they were able to smell.

The fragrance was similar to many fruits and had an earthy aroma to it.

Grandma Yan was shocked to see that just the simple thing of frying the spices in oils would give such a different result.

She nodded as she continued to see what Ye Qian was doing, in her the excitement of learning something new surged, this was the same as one would always try something new which they thought were simple but different from the way one would normally do it.

Ning Wei and Yuan Meng were now free from cutting the vegetables and continued to stare as Ye Qian continued to cook.

This gave them a sweet feeling in their heart as they saw him doing this.

Meanwhile, Ye Qian took a few bones and lamb meat which he had cut into bite-size pieces a few hours ago.

Though the old man had made enough small pieces but they were still a bit big when Ye Qian thought about it.

As all the flavour of the meat would be in the soup or stew then people should have more stew compared to the meat, as it will contain all the nutrition from it.

With that Ye Qian roasted the bones and meat for about 10 or so minutes and then tossed the vegetables like onions, garlic, carrots, spring onions, ginger, capsicum, some chillies.

After everything came to a simmer Ye Qian added to it some soya sauce, oyster sauce.

Then he closed the lid and turned around to see that the women were looking at the pot as if it was some new discovery.
