Chapter 25: Chef 24

The dish in front of me was in a semi-circular shape and was buckled in the bowl. It was steaming, and the sweet aroma of rice wine was faint, but it was not strong, because the glutinous rice flour wrapped in the outer layer had Fermented in the jar, it is more sticky, so the aroma of the inner layer is tightly locked.
Wei Yuanhou cut out the outer layer of glutinous rice flour with chopsticks, and a unique smell came to his face, which not only made him hold back, but even the crowd of onlookers issued an unbearable commotion. Because the aroma is too strong and strong, it combines wine, woody, marinade, and meaty aromas, and a very light scent. The aromas are layered on top of each other, but they don't look messy at all, but deepen others' food. Desire.
What is good food? The dishes with all colors and flavors are called delicacies. This dish made by Lin Dan is not obvious at all, and smells unremarkable, but when you cut open the sticky rice outside, the tightly locked aroma is revealed, this dish seems to have instantly soul.
The emerald green jade meat slice was soaked in marinade, and the thinner part was stained a little red, and it looked like delicate petals. The fat in the meat was forced out by the heat, and penetrated into the bright brown glutinous rice flour. Here, the two kinds of ingredients are tightly adhered together. There is meat in the flour and powder in the meat, which is very flavorful.
Wei Yuanhou picked up a piece of iced jade meat wrapped in glutinous rice flour and opened his eyes suddenly with a bite. Without him, this piece of meat was as full as Lin Dan said, and he had soaked up the liquor, and it seemed like a glass of wine with a bite, full of mellow aroma. This piece of meat is not so much an ingredient as another container for wine, but it is full of tenderness and tenderness, and it has a rich sauce and fragrant after pickling. The glutinous rice flour wrapped in the outer layer also has a unique taste. It is used to make Liaozai. It is semi-fermented and softer and sweeter than ordinary glutinous rice flour.
The mouth is sweet, salty, saucey, stuffed, and all kinds of flavors blend together, but I can't hide the aroma of the more chewy wine. After I enter the throat, there is no burning sensation of the wine, but I feel in the stomach. A warm ... Such a strange request, Lin Dan actually did it. She made wine with a pair of skillful hands, and the taste was very wonderful. Weiyuan Hou involuntarily glanced at each other, and at the end went to add cold bean sprouts.
The bean sprouts are also brewed with Liaozai, mixed with a little pepper and sesame oil, biting off the stalks, and the liquor with the aroma of plants is flowing out, which is very fresh and refreshing.
Wei Yuanhou always drinks alcohol for his meals. He often eats only two dishes, and his stomach is filled with alcohol, then he goes to sleep. The emperor asked him to return to Beijing to take care of his illness, but he became thinner and thinner, which is why. Now, when his subordinates saw that he was willing to sit down and eat a meal securely, and his appetite looked very good, he couldn't help showing a look of joy.
He took chopsticks after chopsticks, and the eating was very elegant, but the speed was not slow. In a moment, he had already dried out half a plate of steamed meat and wine, and a plate of bean sprouts had only a little juice left. The rest of the diners stared at him burningly, swallowing saliva. Madam, the craftsman of Lin Lin is also very good. I thought that the braised meat she made was the best in taste. I did not expect that the steamed meat was more fragrant than the braised meat. I only smelled it, but I could n’t eat it. It is simply the cruelest torture in the world.
Grunting, grunting, the sound of swallowing saliva was heard in the hall, and others could not hear it. Weiyuanhou Wuqiangqiang could hear it clearly, raised his head to see what he brought, trying to pretend to be a serious guard, and turned his head. Go to Lin Dan: "Give me a plate of flour and steamed meat."
"Sorry Hou, I have only brewed this one of Yang Linfei, and I have only one piece of meat. Now you have eaten it." Lin Dan waved helplessly.
"Should make wine from one store to the next, but you only make one altar at a time, why are you so stingy?" Weiyuan Hou grew a face, but his tone was much milder.
"Back to Lord Hou, I'm a cook, not a winemaker. I make wine just because I'm interested, and I don't sell it specifically." Lin Dan replied humblely.
Weiyuan Hou squinted his eyes to see the past, but she was helpless to see her face without any fear. This meal was so delicious, and it was too good for his appetite. After eating it once, he wanted to eat it twice or three times ... countless times, but he did not dare to offend others.
"Forget it, give them a pound of braised pork, do you always have it?"
"Yes, what do you guys want to eat? I have braised pork trotters, braised pork ears, braised pork belly, braised chicken, braised duck ... there are braised tofu, loquat flakes, edamame ... they also have a lot of flavors "Spicy, hot, sour, sweet ..." Lin Dan patiently greeted a group of guards. These people were just fierce and fierce, but all of them were smiling at the moment, and a swarm of bees rushed to the door to look into the crock, their expressions were salivating.
Tang Jiu left Lin Dan's side, walked across to Weiyuanhou, and sat down, picking up chopsticks and picking vegetables.
Weiyuan Hou quickly held up his chopsticks and sneered: "Eat yourself."
Tang Jiuli ignored it and changed the direction to continue to add vegetables. Weiyuanhou continued to block. The two took the chopsticks as a sword. You came and fought dozens of times back and forth. After the fight, there was a real fire. The rater lifted up his sleeves and drove directly.
Lin Dan was busy and shouted: "The sticky rice is sticky, and it is not easy to be restrained. Don't eat too much in the morning. Houye, you can eat half a plate, and eat more. Be careful when you have stomach pain."
Wei Yuanhou's stomach had been eroded by alcohol for a long time. When it didn't hurt, it looked normal. When he hurt, his stomach was like a knife cut, cold sweat dripped, and it was extremely painful. After hearing this, he couldn't help but hesitated for a moment. When the reaction came, Tang Jiu had taken away the remaining powdered steamed meat.
"Bunny ..." He patted his chopsticks vigorously on the table, then slowly rolled up his sleeves. But at this moment, Lin Dan came over with a bowl of porridge and a small red and white cube, and said warmly, "Don't have enough porridge to drink porridge, it is best to drink porridge in the morning."
This porridge is not an ordinary porridge, but a porridge cooked with milk broth for one night, which contains crispy stewed chicken and elbow meat, and mixed with finely chopped amaranth leaves, with a little bit of white in it Emerald green, the look is very good, and the taste is extraordinarily strong.
Tang Jiu's elated mood was instantly ruined, and Shen said, "Hurry up and eat, this is a cricket. According to legend, it was Peng Zu who said that it is the first cricket in the world and is very nourishing."
Weiyuanhou's ugly complexion eased slightly, and he took a sip of porridge while his eyes were hot. He had to admit that drinking a bowl of hot porridge in the morning was not a baptism for Shen Hao's hardened body.
"What is this? The wine tastes very strong." He pointed his chopsticks at the small saucer next to him. The Yongding Hou family were all eating, and they would be right to ask them if they didn't know the food.
Tang Jiu really knew, "This is fermented bean curd, which is also brewed with wine."
Wei Yuanhou tasted a small piece, and was immediately conquered by this unique taste. He took the bean curd and smashed a bowl of porridge at the speed of the wind and the clouds, not to mention the expression of lameness. His guards also ate their mouthfuls of oil, one by one, and kept giving thumbs up to the praise of the treasurer's craftsmanship.
After three quarters of an hour, Weiyuanhou put a gold ingot on the table, and led a group of guards contentedly away. When he came to the middle of the road, he seemed to think of something, and went back again, and grabbed the little fools who had quietly escaped Staying, smashing in front of the door of his hometown restaurant, severely broke his leg.
"Lin shopkeeper, look, Ben Hou has helped you solve these little flies, your altar Yang Linfei ..."
After waiting for Wei Yuanhou to finish his speech, Lin Dan regretted spreading his hand: "The altar wine has to be brewed for at least half a year before it can be drunk. It is now ruined if it is taken out in March. If Hou Ye wants to drink, he still has Wait another half year. "
Weiyuan Hou's gentle expression was slightly stiff, staring at Lin Dan and grinding his teeth. He finally took her, but he shouted at the guards: "Go, go with Ben Hou!" There is no such mess. Bandit of things, why he was run by a little girl.
Lin Dan shook his head in tears and laughed, then went into the shop and continued to cook noodles, turning a blind eye to the little lumps lying on the floor. She seemed to have a mild temper, but she seemed to have some lack of affection, and where would she show mercy to these people. Tang Jiu led a few people to carry away the mess, so as not to delay the business in the store.
"Lin Dan, this is your father's relic." He took out a yellowed book from his arms and explained: "Even if Weiyuan wasn't called, I plan to tell you the truth today. The first to see you Now, I recognize you. "It was Lin Dan who taught him that a person's morality is far more important than his ability, and it also plunged him into deep remorse and self-blame. So even after ten years, he has never forgotten this stubborn little girl. He always wanted to know how the other party was doing well, refused everyone's help, and how far she could go.
It turns out that Lin Dan can go far, farther than he imagined.
"Thank you, Shizi." Lin Dan took the book to read it, and found that it was a recipe, which was the second half of the Yan family recipe supplemented by her father that year.
Tang Jiu explained: "This is what Yan Langqing asked me to pass on to you. She took the first sixty pages of the Yan family's recipe, and has never made a dish developed by your father in these years. This is your father's relic. It belongs to you. "
"Haven't you cooked a dish made by my dad?" Lin Dan repeated, his smile was cold.
Tang Jiu thought this smile was a little weird, and was thinking about exploring. When he saw Qin Erniang coming, Ai Aidi said, "Lin shopkeeper, you just said that you want to make me a Qianzhou-flavored stewed meat. Is it still worth mentioning? "Everyone else was scared away by Weiyuan Hou, but she stayed strong for a few stutters.
"Please count, please wait a moment." Once facing the diners, Lin Dan immediately put away his smirk and changed back to the gentle and patient Lin Treasurer.
Qin Erniang glanced at Tang Jiuyi secretly, and her heart was slightly cyanotic. She also knew this man, who was the grandfather of Yongding Houfu House, who had just won a victory and was transferred to the army by the emperor. His sister is still the most favored concubine in the palace. There is no queen on her, but she is so powerful.
This restaurant is really a god. All come and go are big people. Fortunately, Lin didn't offend the shopkeeper. As soon as she thought about it, she saw a man and a woman walking in the door. The facial features are similar. They should be brothers and sisters, with a few servants behind. It was also a coincidence that the man Qin Erniang also knew and snored involuntarily.
The treasurer of the forest is really a crouching dragon and a crouching tiger. Another nobleman is here!
