this puzzle stumps me. I feel like I have to take on b5 and than give up my bishop on e6 in the end. but I can't figure out how to lose a tempo for black. any hints?

hint:
the black king cannot castle
Oh I think i got it: 1. e3 b5 2. Bxb5 e6 3. Bxd7+ Kxd7 4. e4 Ke8
but I guess there is more than one solution since blacks bishop Knight or Queen could have also captuered the bishop

that is... a cook. I intended for 1. e4 b5 2. Bxb5 e6 3. Bxd7+ Ke7 4. Be8 Ke8

Ohh, that is a great solution. If the pawn had to be on e3 instead of e4 this would probably be the only solvable way
