"Shang Lao, it is to use water chestnuts, eliminate them into the flesh of lotus seeds, hollow it out and stuff it into the powder made of lotus seeds, and then pour it in with glutinous rice juice, after steaming, there is not only the fragrance of lotus seeds, but also more crisp and sweet than lotus seeds, and there is a unique flavor of ......."

Huang Sixia was the first to explain: "Chef Zhou's thoughts made me suddenly open my mouth, full of imagination, full of imagination." ”

He has always insisted on calling Zhou Dong the chef of Zhou, firstly, when he knew Zhou Dong, Zhou Dong was the chef of Kyushu Ding Food, and secondly, he also admired Zhou Dong's vertical and horizontal red and white cases, as if he was omnipotent, and the leader of a national banquet white case team obviously could not cover Zhou Dong's ability.

"Listening to Chef Huang, Chef Xiao Zhou is really a chef full of imagination, but I still have a question. ”

The elders are eating, and the younger generations can't move the chopsticks without permission, and the rules of the business have always been like this, so even Mr. Shang was watching with saliva on the side, and finally couldn't hold back his curiosity at this moment and asked: "Although it's not in season now, it's not like there are no lotus seeds in the cold storage." Why didn't Master Xiao Zhou just take it, but it would take so much effort?"

"Actually, it's still taking into account the cooking method of this lotus leaf lotus soup......"

Huang Sixia was surprised to find that Zhou Dong was calm and calm even in front of Mr. Shang, and he could talk eloquently.

You must know that Mr. Shang is very different from Mr. Shang, after all, Mr. Shang has semi-retired, and the older a person is, the more approachable he is, although he is strict with his children and grandchildren, he has always been kind and amiable to outsiders.

Mr. Shang is in charge of the power of a big country, and he has the authority of not being angry, although he has been in the business for a long time, he will inevitably be nervous when facing Mr. Shang, Zhou Dong, a young man, has no nervous performance?

But I didn't know that when Zhou Dong first saw Mr. Shang, he was actually a little nervous, but after all, he was a man who hung his father's body, and after a long time, ordinary people were actually 'mortals' in his eyes, even in the face of Mr. Shang, he would soon be able to treat him equally.

With a faint smile, Zhou Dong continued: "The lotus leaves and lotus pods in this dish are actually steamed, and lotus seeds are famous for seeing water and not seeing gas, if it is boiled and eaten, it is no problem, if it is steamed from water, it will become dry and astringent.

What's more, the refrigerated lotus seeds are not fresh enough, and there is no way to eat them. That's why I just take the original flavor of lotus seeds, and also use water chestnuts as the shell to enhance the fresh, sweet and crisp taste, these two ingredients are born with complementary effects, and in this dish can achieve the effect that one plus one is greater than two. ”

Mr. Shang didn't speak again, his father's performance made him suspect that Zhou Dong was too modest, what is one plus one greater than two?

Since the old father took out a 'lotus seed' and ate it with relish, he became obsessed, and continued to eat all the 'lotus seeds' on a lotus pod, and then hit the idea on the hollowed-out lotus canopy.

The first bite down, Mr. Shang found that his father's eyes narrowed, his face was full of happiness, that kind of happiness he had seen, or a few years ago, because his father insisted repeatedly, he had to go to the three northern provinces with his father, when a stupid roe deer was knocked down by a shot, and then thrown into the soup pot, his father was this expression.

But the three northern provinces are the places where his father fought and lived, and the silly roe deer is the top delicious thing in his father's eyes, in his memory, his father ate when he was young can only be described as 'arrogant', and a big bowl of wine and meat is the favorite way of eating for the old anti-union, but when did my father have an interest in this kind of delicate food?

My father had always been dismissive of the delicate dim sum of the South, thinking that this kind of thing was not enjoyable at all, but what happened today? When he was sure that this 'lotus pod' was not only edible, but also very delicious, my father first took a small bite, and then took two large bites.

Oh my God, this lotus pod should be made of some kind of rice flour, maybe there is glutinous rice in it, like a big zongzi, this kind of thing only takes three bites?

Mr. Shang's face changed slightly, and he was about to open his mouth to stop it, but immediately saw his father pick up another lotus pod and began to happily pluck lotus seeds.

Glancing at his son helplessly, Mr. Shang smiled a little embarrassedly: "Master Xiao Zhou, is this thing easy to digest?"

The old man of Shang Lao's age, there is the so-called 'three points of hunger and cold to keep safe', there is really no shortage of oil and water in the stomach, sometimes it is healthier to eat less, like such a way to eat, can you not worry about being a child?

"Don't worry, Mr. Shang, I guarantee that even if Mr. Shang eats all this lotus leaf lotus soup, there will be absolutely no problem. ”

Zhou Dong knew in his heart that the three kinds of rice used in this dish were all 'extinct' exchanged in the system, not to mention, he also used his legendary vegetable washing skills to 'cut hair and wash the marrow', which is not only easier to digest and absorb, but also has a far more beneficial effect on the human body than ordinary ingredients.

Not to mention a tough old man like Shang Lao, even if he is an old man in his last years, it is no problem to eat most of the portions.

"Master Xiao Zhou, you ......"

Mr. Shang was a little crying and laughing, he had clearly expressed his worries just now, and if he changed those who would figure out his intentions, he would immediately start from the perspective of a professional and tell his father that no matter how delicious things are, he can't eat more, Zhou Dong is good, he actually patted his chest and packed the ticket, and said that his father had no problem eating up this lotus leaf lotus soup.

"Hear Master Xiao Zhou's words clearly, don't worry about it in the future, think that what you think is the truth. ”

In just this moment, Shang Lao has already eaten two lotus canopies in a row, looking at the last lotus pod and a few tender green lotus leaves, feeling that there is no problem with eating this bowl of soup, and Master Xiao Zhou's vision is definitely not bad!

It turns out that there are still more delicious things in this world than stupid roe deer, needless to say, lotus seeds made of water chestnuts are more delicious and taste better than real lotus seeds.

The pure fragrance of rice made him feel as if he was in nature, as if he had seen how the rice absorbed nutrients in the soil and how it grew up section by section, and after chewing it lightly, it was full of the fragrance of rice flowers, as if the old man saw the young girl with two big braids next to the golden rice field again.

It's the taste of my youth, the taste of the times, and the taste of me.

After eating one lotus pod, Shang Lao felt that his energy had risen a lot, and the two lotus pods were in his stomach, and he felt even hungrier......

An old man of his age can still feel hungry after eating two lotus pods that add up to more than half a catty, which is a sign of recovery.

There is also a lotus pod and a few lotus leaves in the soup pot at the moment, and the soup noodles of the small round lotus are also green and heavy, which makes people have more appetite when they look at it, Shang Lao picked up the spoon and drank seven or eight spoonfuls of soup in one go, and went to pick up the last lotus pod with a smile.

"Boy, you have remembered for me that eating is like a war, if you don't fight, you won't fight, and if you want to fight, you have to wipe out all the 'enemies'!"
