Chapter 837: Real Chinese Food

Hugh sighed: "That's why I don't want to go home, but I can't go back, after all, I'm going to stay at Eton Manor, which is so big, three miles from the kitchen to the dining room." Not really, without a servant. ”

Yang Meng listened to his words and gestured his middle finger without hesitation: "In our Han country's swear words, it is ------ you are looking for a smoke!"

Hugh shook his head: "I really can't stand the red tape. But there is no way, and if you bear the surname Grosvenor, you will have to bear the corresponding responsibility. There are hundreds of gardeners, security guards, and servants in the family, which is a lot of money every month. Compared to my sister and sister, they are happy. ”

Yang Meng glanced at him: "You have inherited the title and still say this? Your sister and sister are not the Duke of Westminster." ”

Hugh shook his head: "Our family established a trust fund early, and my two sisters are also very well married. So they don't have to worry about money, they can do whatever they want. ”

Di Wei said: "It seems that your father is a person who likes children very much. ”

As a result, Hugh's sister Viona listened and said, "Well, our father does love us very much, but my father did not make the matter of the trust fund, and our family has always had this tradition. ”

Hugh smiled: "The key is to avoid taxes." ”

Western countries have a high inheritance tax, which is as high as 40% in corrupt countries, and the most common methods used by wealthy people to avoid taxes are to establish trust funds and do charity.

However, these tax avoidance policies can also be seen to serve the real wealthy------ how can those middle-class people have the money to engage in trust funds and charitable funds? Therefore, almost all of the people who pay inheritance tax are ordinary people.

"Okay, don't talk about this, try our Sister He's craftsmanship, it's not black or blowing, even if you go to our country to participate in the state banquet, it's not as high as our Sister He's level!" Yang Meng said proudly: "Sister He's cooking skills plus my secret seasoning are ------ beautiful!"

Hugh looked at the dishes on the table: "It's really full of color, flavor, and flavor, what kind of dishes are these?"

Yang Meng introduced them one by one: "In fact, it is not a rare famous dish, an ordinary dish that can be eaten in almost any restaurant in the Han Kingdom." For example, this is called shredded pork in Beijing sauce, one of the representatives of Beijing cuisine, the lean tenderloin is cut into shredded meat, then added to light soy sauce cooking wine, then stirred evenly with egg white, peanut oil and the like, then stir-fried and thickened with sweet sauce, sugar, light soy sauce and the like, and then wrapped in tofu skin to eat。。。。。。 Because I don't know if you like tofu skin or not, we have specially prepared a roast duck dough cake that you can hold and eat, whatever you like. ”

"This sweet and sour loin is a food that can be seen everywhere in China, and the so-called 'four major cuisines' of the Han Kingdom have this dish, the method is slightly different, the taste is slightly different, but it is generally a way. The method we use here is more oily than the 'sweet and sour loin' Lu cuisine in other cuisines, but the taste is more fragrant. Don't you love sweets? That's what sweets. ”

Viona pointed to a plate next to her and asked, "What's in there?" ”

"Oh, it's a cold dish。。。。。。 In your rotten parlance, this is a 'vegetable salad'. It is to mix green peppers, red peppers and kelp with cold sauce, which has vinegar and sugar, and tastes sweet and sour. These 'braised pork', 'cola chicken wings', 'mapo tofu', 'sauerkraut fish', 'three fresh', 'vinegared cabbage', 'fried shrimp', 'hot and sour shredded potatoes', 'boiled cabbage', 'shredded green pepper pork', 'garlic chrysanthemum', 'mushroom rape' and the like are all dishes that can be seen everywhere in our national hotels. Don't think I'm fooling you with the goods. I can entertain you with dishes like 'Yellow Braised Fish Maw', 'Crystal Shrimp', 'Jumping Carp', 'Buddha Jumping Over the Wall', 'Flying Dragon Soup', 'Dong'anzi Chicken', 'Clear Water Cabbage', 'Crystal Meat', 'Squirrel Guiyu', 'Red Shark Fin Rice', 'Three Treasure Duck', etc., but what if you can't eat them in the future? The dishes I served you today can also be eaten in restaurants outside, although they are not as delicious as our home, but the taste is generally the same, and it is no problem to satisfy your cravings. ”

Hugh suddenly pointed to a plate and said, "I know this dish!

Yang Meng looked at the plate she pointed to and smiled, it was really not strange that she knew this dish----- this is the 'handle' of overseas Chinese food, the legendary Kung Pao Chicken!

In the eyes of foreigners, if a Chinese restaurant does not have Kung Pao Chicken, then it is not a Chinese restaurant。。。。。。

It's a bit interesting to say, this kung pao chicken is considered a 'grassroots class' in China, but observing the state banquet menu, it is a frequent appearance------ foreigners love to eat this bite! Well, or 'improved' kung pao chicken.

The unimproved Kung Pao Chicken is also very popular, and the Germanic Chancellor Angela Merkel visited Chengdu and went to taste the Kung Pao Chicken, and one person ate a plate, not to mention, but also inquired in detail about the recipe and went home to prepare to make it himself; Pope Francis also went to Chinatown in Hua-Sheng-Don in order to eat an authentic Kung Pao Chicken. The best is still in the northern capital, at that time there was a 'talent competition of the embassy in Han', more than 60 countries and regions in Han ambassadors and their wives compete for talents, and so many people only make one dish, that is, kung pao chicken. It feels like if you don't learn how to make kung pao chicken when you come to Hanguo, then you will have no shame to face Jiangdong's fathers. In the classic comedy "The Big Bang Theory", Xie Er ran away from home in anger because his roommate changed to a kung pao chicken in a Chinese restaurant.

This shows the status of Kung Pao Chicken.

Now in the West, Kung Pao Chicken is no longer a dish! Now it has become a cuisine: what Stars and Stripes Kung Pao Chicken, Rotten Kung Pao Chicken, Gallic Kung Pao Chicken。。。。。。 Even foreigners are indignant that the dish of 'Kung Pao Chicken' is not taken seriously in the Han Kingdom, and CNN once launched a special article to complain about the grievances of 'Kung Pao Chicken', hoping that Han people will love to eat Kung Pao Chicken more。。。。。。

This Nima is stunned!

Yang Meng explained: "The 'Kung Pao Chicken' you eat is not called Kung Pao Chicken, it tastes more like 'Sauce Fried Chicken'. ”

"Sauce fried chicken?" Hugh asked, puzzled.

Yang Meng nodded and said: "Yes, a dish in Lu cuisine, well, it is a bit similar to the shredded meat method of this Beijing sauce shredded pork, that is, the diced chicken is made with sweet sauce and the like, and the taste is full of sauce and slightly sweet." In fact, Kung Pao Chicken was developed from Sauce Fried Chicken. In comparison, the chicken with sauce is mainly sweet and salty, while the kung pao chicken is 'fresh, spicy and fragrant'. ”

"There is no conclusion on how this dish came about, but it is basically related to Ding Baozhen, a famous minister in the late Qing Dynasty, who was most famous for killing the great eunuch An Dehai. There is a saying about the origin of Kung Pao Chicken that Ding Baozhen is a native of Guizhou, where people love spicy food, and he is no exception, but he almost served in the north in the first half of his life, and ate all northern cuisine, and later when he was transferred to the governor of Sichuan, people there also loved spicy food, so he made improvements on the basis of fried chicken in sauce, and used dried chili peppers instead of bean paste to make a new type of chicken. And because he was named 'Prince Shaobao' at that time, the parties called him 'Ding Gongbao', so this dish was called 'Kung Pao Chicken'. Okay, don't say so much, hurry up and eat! If you don't eat it, it won't taste good! Hugh, don't worry about your entourage, I've already asked my two brothers to take them to a restaurant in the city to eat and drink spicy food, it's better than you! Don't worry about safety when you come to me, we are here in Hanguo! The world's first class of public security!"

After listening to Yang Meng's words, Wang Shaofang, who had been silent on the side, was secretly amused, no wonder he never saw Xiao Ou and Ake, it turned out that they had already gone out! Listening to Yang Meng's words, they couldn't come back for a while! Didn't you hear 'eat and have fun'? A group of men want to 'eat and have fun', they will definitely not return all night!

And that's a good thing! She was worried about the man who jumped off the roof. I was afraid that Xiao Ou and Ake would have an impact on their actions at night, but now it's good, Yang Meng sent the two of them out!

This time it's done!

She now seems to have seen what she looked like when she returned to China to accept the award after completing her mission! Hmph, her mood was not beautiful now, and she kept beckoning Hugh and others to eat and drink like the mistress of the house.

A few people ate and drank Yang Meng asked his most curious question: "I said Hugh, why did you come here?"

Hugh smiled, "You promised to let me see the video you took on this trip!"

"Just for this?" Yang Meng's eyes widened: "I haven't forgotten this, I'll just give you a copy when I go back." Or take a long way to run?"

Viola on the side coughed desperately to remind her brother.

Yang Meng's attention was on Viola, and a fool could see that she was in a hurry.

Hugh smiled bitterly: "Okay, Yang, this is just one aspect, I must have come here for your travel video, you have done something that I can't do and don't dare to try, I can only watch the video and have a good time." But I did come to you for another reason: it was because of my sister Viola, who had something to do with you. ”

Yang Meng looked at Viola: "Your brother and I are friends, you can talk about something directly." ”

Viola didn't go around in circles after hearing this, and went directly to the topic: "Mr. Yang, do you have a treatment for mental illness?"

Yang Meng was stunned: "Hmm, how do you know?"
