It was a fine day. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The afternoon sun shone obliquely through the window, through the half-hidden curtains, slowly moving, moving, and then at last there was a strip of light that was more than an inch long, shining on the sleeping man.

Sunlight has a temperature. -- This is common sense, but it's often overlooked. But for a person who is about to wake up, the sunlight shining on his body is enough to bring warmth, a light or even a summoning that can be felt even in his sleep.

Therefore, when the sun continued to shine on his body for about five minutes, Xu Guangling woke up.

An indescribable feeling of comfort came immediately, it was a beautiful experience that would only come after a hearty and full sleep, and after the body and mind were fully rested, adjusted and renewed, but the truth was that Xu Guangling had not had such an experience for many years, and he had even forgotten this feeling.

In the past, due to insomnia, Xu Guangling's sleep quality was not good, and every time he woke up, his head was a little heavy, the kind of drowsy, and sometimes even a little headache, which would not disappear after some time.

But now, what does that feel like?

It's as if time has been reversed, six or seven years ago.

Full, abundant, and energetic, in terms of physical and mental feelings, Xu Guangling only thought of these words for a while.

But this feeling didn't make Xu Guangling stay for a long time, and it can even be said that he didn't get his attention much, and he felt this, just out of physical instinct. Xu Guangling's consciousness immediately focused entirely on another matter.

Last night, something did change happen to him! For the time being, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.

Xu Guangling had a dream, but in fact, it was inappropriate to use "dream" to describe the events of last night, and it was even very inappropriate.

Dreams, Xu Guangling has done a lot in the past few years, a lot, but no matter what kind of dream it is, there is always one of the most obvious characteristics, that is, the things in the dream are always fragmented and exist in the form of fragments, and compared with reality, the things in the dream always have different degrees of deformation.

In addition, many times, when I wake up, I still vaguely remember what the content of the dream is, but soon, like words written on the beach, I will be swept away by the tide and it will be gone. I only remember dreaming, but I don't remember what I dreamed about.

But last night, it was different.

There is no need to close your eyes, you don't need to meditate, and you don't need to recall, what you "dreamed" yesterday came to life in Xu Guangling's mind.

In the dream, he turned into a chef and was making a soup called "Jiupin White Jade Soup". The main ingredients of the soup are not complicated, there are only three kinds, namely mushrooms, tofu, potatoes, yes, potatoes, is the same material he ate last night, but the selection, method and processing of these three materials are completely unseen and unheard of by Xu Guangling.

Tofu, take traditional Chinese soybeans, soak, peel, only peeled pure watercress ground tofu is delicate enough, without the rough texture and astringency brought by the bean skin, and when ordering tofu, it is neither brine, nor gypsum, not inner fat or anything, but a mixture of glutinous rice wine and black rice vinegar.

The tofu produced in this way has both the mellow aroma of the soybean itself, the mellow aroma of rice wine and the mellow aroma of rice vinegar, and these three mellow aromas are harmonious and different, which is the "three products", which means that three flavors can be tasted from it.

And the tofu produced in this way is delicate enough and smooth.

How delicate and smooth is it? A master chef who is so delicate and smooth that he can cut such tofu into a hair's thin.

The point is that when the tofu can be cut so thin, through the knife work that is connected or broken, the tofu shreds can be "bloomed", or placed in the soup to show a swaying aquatic weed, and the tofu shreds are dyed through green vegetable juice and other things, then it is an aquatic weed, at least in appearance, almost completely similar.

Potatoes are shredded, very fine and thin shreds, half soaked in sugar water, half soaked in vinegar water, vinegar water can also be replaced with orange juice, lemon juice, etc.

Mushrooms, take the kind of wild chicken leg mushrooms, that is, the kind where the hat is very long, almost completely covering the mushroom stalk, only such mushrooms are fresh enough, smooth enough, and then the hat rod is used for two purposes, and they are all drawn into thin wires.

Shredded tofu, shredded potatoes, shredded mushrooms, delicate tofu, soft potatoes, tender mushrooms, the three ingredients complement each other in terms of taste, taste or nutrition, and the soup made of these three materials is white jade soup.

Among them, the three flavors of tofu, the two flavors of potatoes, and the two flavors of mushrooms are combined to form seven flavors.

Then, the tofu, potatoes and mushrooms are mixed with one flavor, and the clear soup is another flavor, plus the previous seven flavors, a total of nine flavors, that is, "nine products". Jiupin, plus the three materials are all as white as jade, this is the origin of "Jiupin White Jade Soup".

Then, a clear picture appeared in Xu Guangling's mind.

That is, the nine-pin white jade soup has been prepared, put into a small celadon bowl, a spoon that is also porcelain is put in, stirring lightly in it, and you can see thousands of threads, all of which are spinning, like the bloom of a flower.

Then taste, starting with two scoops of appetizers.

The first spoonful takes the clear soup and opens the mouth, and the second spoonful takes the mixture and tastes the whole taste.

After two spoonfuls, you can taste it little by little, carefully and slowly, and taste the taste of the "nine products" of this nine-pin white jade soup.

When such a picture flashed in his mind, Xu Guangling involuntarily moved his tongue and swallowed saliva again, but he felt that saliva gushed out of his mouth like a rising tide of seawater, and he swallowed a few mouthfuls in a row, but there was still new saliva giving birth.

Almost for the first time in his life, Xu Guangling knew what "gluttony" was, this kind of experience was much more vivid than the explanation in the dictionary, no, it was too vivid, so vivid that it made people a little angry. ――

This is too much!

However, greedy and gluttonous, Xu Guangling was a little sluggish.

Is this a dream?

As long as he was still a little clear, he would never have thought of what had been before him as a dream. What kind of dream can be so concrete, so real, so out of nothing?

Xu Guangling is not a chef, and he has never learned to cook.

He can make some simple ones, such as fried shredded potatoes, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and stewed tofu, but it is only at the level of being able to eat, and there is absolutely no attention to it in between. He didn't know what kind of knife work or heat, and he didn't even know whether to put oil or salt first when stir-frying, so he came completely randomly.

He basically hasn't read any food books.

In the past, where did he come from such thoughts?

But in yesterday's dream, he dreamed of something? It was all out of nothing! In other words, it wasn't his own. However, over the night, he knew a lot of things without a teacher.

For example, how tofu is made, a complete set of processes from soybeans to tofu.

For example, tofu is called southern tofu and northern tofu, and those dotted with gypsum are called southern tofu, and those dotted with brine are called northern tofu, and in addition to gypsum and brine, there are other good things that can be used to order tofu......

All of these things were unknown to Xu Guangling before, and it can even be said that he didn't know anything about them.

But at this time, he seemed to be a chef who had been immersed in this dish for decades, and even Xu Guangling had an illusion, that is, he felt that he could make the "nine-grade white jade soup"! Those exquisiteness and complexity that make people feel a headache just thinking about it, for him now, it seems to be as simple as 1+1=2.
