Cutting meat and skewering is an enormous task. By the time everything was prepared, it was already evening outside. Nangong Yi moved the grill under the big tree in the courtyard, set up the table and stool, and one by one brought out the materials that Yiyi had prepared, ready to start grilling skewers.
Cai Wei took out several small jars filled with seasonings and placed them beside him. The jars contained soy sauce, cumin, sesame, chili powder, and peanut oil. When barbecuing, one should first apply a layer of peanut oil; as for soy sauce, it should be added at the end, otherwise it will burn.
She explained the barbecue process to Nangong Yi, believing that with his unique gift for culinary delicacies, he should be able to grill well. The meat had already been marinated, and with basic control of the fire, it should be fine. Just to be safe, Cai Wei specially grilled some cabbage for the men as a demonstration, to avoid wasting ingredients!
