Chapter 476: Annoying flies! (two)


After seeing Lu Chen pouring the wine, the third daughter eagerly picked up a goblet and prepared it as if it were beer. She directly raised her head and poured it down. Lu Chen was taken aback, and quickly stopped the movements of the three women. Luckily, Lu Chen moved faster! Otherwise, it would be a pity for this glass of wine!
"Hey! Wait a minute, don't worry! This and wine still need some steps! If you drink so recklessly, it will ruin the taste of this wine! Wine is an elegant existence in all wines. The natural drinking action also needs to be more elegant!"
"Ah! Drinking wine is so troublesome! Brother, you quickly tell us, what steps are needed for this and wine?" Mengyun said eagerly. Looking at her twinkling eyes looking at Wine, Lu Chen knew that he couldn't bear it anymore!
"Haha! Yeah! Brother, let us know quickly! This wine must be delicious when you smell it!" Mengqing nodded, gently sniffed the mouth of the tall glass, and revealed a very obsessed one. Smile, then smiled and said to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen nodded, and stopped talking nonsense, and said directly: "This is red wine! Let me tell you about the rules that you need to have together with food!
Rule 1: There is no rule
This sounds absurd, but in the combination of fine wine and food, the most important thing is to stimulate your own imagination. There is no rule that can adapt to the ever-changing scenes and people with different tastes, so the more open the better, as long as your guests feel comfortable and fun, then you can completely abandon the tradition.
Rule 2: Drink alcohol to people
Some people just don't like a certain type of wine. No matter what its quality is, what do you do? Sometimes this may be caused by some of their horrible experiences. You can always force them to taste the Sauvignon Blanc you get.
So the best way to respect your guests is to watch people drink. This requires you to have more patience and to understand your guests’ preferences. Even though you think the mineral-rich Riesling paired with fresh oysters is delicious, your guests might insist on a glass of red wine!
Rule 3: Food and wine must be delicious
Although people say that duck and Pinot Noir will have a magical flavor when paired with it, if it is a water-quality, plain Pinot Noir, then no matter how the duck tastes, it will not have a good matching effect. The reverse is also the same. If the cooking of the duck fails, then don't use your best Pinot Noir to waste your efforts.
Rule 4: The weight of taste is very important
Light and delicate dishes often need to be paired with lighter-bodied wines, while red wines with heavier tannins go well with heavy-tasting and slightly coarse red meat. Sometimes, when a light-bodied wine is paired with a strong-tasting dish, there will be a contrast effect.
Rule five: comparison
Contrast is a matching principle that many people like. Choosing a low-acid Great Wall dry red paired with greasy fried fish and potato chips will often have good results.
Rule 6: Wine and food will complement each other
Sometimes, finding foods and wines that are similar in taste often makes them appear more harmonious. The earthy mushrooms and the soil-flavored Pinot Noir are a perfect match. Fresh, mint-flavored Cabernet Sauvignon is paired with classic roast lamb with mint sauce. It also works well.
Rule 7: Trust your own intuition
These are some combinations of red wine and food. The steps of drinking red wine are the key.
1. Take wine:
The taste of red wine is very affected by temperature, so try to minimize contact between your hands and the bottle. When holding the wine, hold the bottom of the bottle with your thumb, and gently press the bottle with the tips of your four fingers to balance it, so that the palm with the highest temperature can be kept away from the bottle.
2. Pour wine:
If the wine is left for a long time, there will always be some precipitation on the bottom of the bottle. These precipitations will affect the taste of the wine. Therefore, when pouring the wine, use it evenly so that the wine is poured gently. Leave the wine about two centimeters high and not drink it.
3. Shaking wine:
Shaking the wine can fully dispense the taste of the red wine that is not completely "wake up", making the wine more mellow, and at the same time, it can also sway the red wine's aroma to the fullest extent, and the aroma is overflowing.
4. Sober up:
This is an important step in drinking red wine, which is to let the red wine sit for a period of time in a spacious container, so that the red wine is in full contact with the air, and remove the shortcomings such as acidity, astringency, and thinness of the newly opened red wine. This practice is called decanting, and the spacious container used is called a decanter. Generally speaking, standing for half an hour is the best drinking time, and the older the wine, the longer it takes. But pay attention to the proper measure, not too long, otherwise it will be over-oxidized and tasteless after drinking.
5. Drinking:
Chinese liquor is strong and burns the throat, so it has to be dry. Red wine is different. The taste of red wine after fully decanting is rich and varied. After taking a sip, you can fully circulate it in your mouth and let all aspects of your tongue keep touching the red wine. You will find that it has a kaleidoscopic taste, which can only be infinite after swallowing. Only in this way can we experience the true charm of red wine. "
After talking about these steps and rules, Lu Chen took out a tall glass from his ring again, and followed the steps just now to give the three women a demonstration. The three daughters hadn’t understood anything because Lu Chen spoke too general, but now that Lu Chen’s demonstration is given, they naturally widened their eyes and watched carefully. For fear of missing an important link, the taste of this red wine has changed!
In fact, the steps of drinking red wine mentioned by Lu Chen are only used in some banquets and the like. In his own home, even if he did not follow these steps, the taste of red wine is basically not How many changes will happen, even if it does, there will certainly not be many people who will come out normally!
If you say that drinking red wine is exquisite, but it is too exquisite and too cumbersome, no matter how delicious the taste of red wine is, it is estimated that not many people are willing to drink it! So when it comes to drinking red wine, just do it roughly right. If it doesn't particularly affect, then there is no problem at all!
After Lu Chen gave the three girls a demonstration, he quickly learned this with the wisdom of the three girls. Especially the two women of Mengqing, after learning about the deliciousness of red wine, and knowing the effects of red wine, they were very dissatisfied with Lu Chen's appearance. Take out a little bit. Although beer is good, it is better than wine!"
