Chapter 52: Yiyang Songhua Egg

Looking at Ruixiang's departing figure, Chen Mo was very sweet in his heart.

People should pay more attention to the inside than the appearance.

Just a birthmark and shouldn't be an obstacle on the road of life!

It feels really comfortable to do good deeds, and I hope Ruixiang can listen to his words and walk out of a new life path.

"Bang Bang Bang"

Suddenly there was a sound of applause from behind.

Chen Mo looked back and saw a person standing by the wall at the door, leaning against the wall and clapping his hands to himself.

What the hell, how have people been behind it lately.

"It's not bad, Chen Mo, why didn't I find out before, you are quite good at untying people's hearts. ”

A crisp and beautiful female voice...

Chen Mo took a closer look, oops!

"Ni Meili, why are you here?"

The night was dark and the wind was high, and Chen Mo was a little panicked.

"Why can't I come, aren't we friends?"

"Did you see everything just now?" Chen Mo scratched his head embarrassedly.

In fact, this kind of thing of instilling chicken soup for the soul, Chen Mo is really unnatural to do, if it weren't for systematic guidance and food, I'm afraid it wouldn't have such a good effect.

"Well, I saw it all. In order not to disturb you, I have been standing here silently watching. ”

"Uh..."

Chen Mo was speechless and choked.

At this moment, Chen Mo's eyes flashed, and he saw Ni Meili shaking her wrist, wearing the bracelet she had given away.

I really didn't expect that Miss Fujia would always carry a bracelet of 200 yuan.

Chen Mo suddenly remembered a sentence, and he didn't know where he had seen it.

Gifts don't care about being expensive, they care about the person giving them.

Hey... Thinking of this, Chen Mo's goosebumps are about to be as big as steamed buns.

"Uh... Come in, do you want to eat something?" Chen Mo hurriedly made a welcoming gesture while cutting off those strange thoughts just now.

Ni Meili tilted her head slightly, glanced at Chen Mo, and walked in generously.

After sitting down, Ni Meili raised her head and said to Chen Mo: "I didn't come to eat, but when you say that, I'm a little hungry." ”

"I'm going to eat the dish you just made for that young man, the preserved egg tofu called 'Angel's Kiss Marks'. ”

Seeing a playful smile on Ni Meimei's face, Chen Mo suddenly realized.

"It turns out... You know this dish!"

"Hee-hee. Ni Meili laughed, "Of course, the most special thing about this dish is the preserved eggs, although there are not many people who know preserved eggs, but I happen to be one." ”

Chen Mo smiled, thinking that he was a little ugly just now, but fortunately he didn't show anything too much, and he didn't brag.

As soon as she thought of this, Ni Meili suddenly asked, "By the way, Chen Mo, do you have a second uncle?"

"I'm sorry for the temporary absence. Preserved egg tofu will arrive soon. ”

Seeing Chen Mo fleeing back to the kitchen in a bit of embarrassment, Ni Meili couldn't help but laugh out loud again.

When attending Ni Meili's birthday party a few days ago, Chen Mo felt that the Ni family's business seemed to be related to the catering industry, and it was not surprising that Ni Meili could meet preserved eggs in such a family.

Since the other party named him to eat this preserved egg tofu, then I can't disappoint the other party.

Cheering up 120,000 spirits, Chen Mo carefully stared at the recipe and began to make it seriously.

Peel and wash the preserved eggs given by the raw material cabinet.

Cut the whole preserved egg into small pieces and peel and cut the tofu into pieces.

After completing the knife cutting action, there was no residue of preserved eggs or tofu left on the Kinmen kitchen knife.

Place the tofu and preserved eggs in a bowl in the order of the lower and upper layers, and sprinkle with mustard and coriander.

Finally, there is the very important sauce.

Take out a ceramic bowl, add soy sauce, rice vinegar, refined salt, garlic paste, ginger juice, and sesame oil and stir well.

Freeze in the refrigerator, remove after about 2 minutes, and pour directly over the preserved eggs and tofu.

Preserved egg tofu, success!

Compared to the first pass of production, the proficiency has improved a lot.

Since Ni Meili is a person who knows the goods, Chen Mo is also more careful in production.

In fact, this preserved egg tofu is just a home-cooked cold dish, and the main reason why it is delicious is that it comes from the fresh raw materials provided by the system.

According to the system, the most important ingredient of this dish, preserved eggs, comes from Yiyang, Hunan.

Preserved eggs: from Yiyang, Hunan Province, on the shore of Dongting Lake, it began to appear in the early Ming Dynasty and has a history of more than 500 years. Yiyang here has sufficient rainfall, long frost-free period, short cold period, and a wide variety of natural feed. Ducks often hunt small fish and shrimp in the lake, and peck at snails and other foods, so the egg quality is good. Yiyang's preserved eggs are made from these fresh duck eggs, and when the eggshell is peeled off, you can see the transparent surface of the egg white, and the pine flowers are looming. Because the water quality is very good, the preserved eggs here are in the process of water solubility, and the salt and free amino acids produced by protein are diffused and precipitated in different directions to form a crystalline pattern, similar to pine needles, so it is called "pine flower". Therefore, the preserved eggs here are also known as Songhua preserved eggs, and they are well-known at home and abroad. The saying that "the eggs are good and the flowers are loose, and the flowers are good and the eggs are good" came from Yiyang.

Chen Mo confidently put this preserved egg tofu in front of Ni Meili.

If the dish itself has to distinguish between advantages and disadvantages, then Chen Mo believes that the dish "Angel's Kiss Marks" he made will definitely become the first recipe for preserved egg tofu.

Ni Meili was not polite, and directly picked up the spoon and ate it.

When she took the first bite, Ni Meili was expressionless, but her eyes moved from side to side.

In the second bite, I nodded slightly, and the amplitude of the mouth began to increase.

In the third mouth, there was a "um~" sound in the nasal cavity, and it seemed that the taste of preserved egg tofu began to conquer Ni's beautiful taste buds.

By the fourth sip, Ni Meili had already begun to lower her head and taste it quickly.

......

Even if someone was staring, Ni Meili quickly emptied the plate in front of her without any scruples.

"Chen Mo, this preserved egg tofu, you are really good, this preserved egg should be a Songhua egg in Yiyang, Hunan, it is very fresh and rare, I didn't expect you to treat the raw ingredients so seriously in such a small store. ”

Ni Meimei's words surprised Chen Mo again, and he actually tasted the origin of the preserved eggs after eating them once, which was really not simple.

Patting her stomach with satisfaction, Ni Meili said to Chen Mo: "Actually, I came here so late to tell you that I will leave tomorrow." ”

"Where are you going, are you in such a hurry tomorrow?"

Chen Mo suddenly realized that he seemed to have asked three sentences in one breath.

"Well, go back to New York and continue to study, I haven't graduated yet, and I came back for this birthday party. Today I have come to say goodbye to you. ”

After speaking, Ni Meili stood up, smiled at Chen Mo and said: "I'm glad to come back this time and meet a new friend, if you have the opportunity, you can come to New York to have a look, I will be your guide, it is the capital of food." ”

Seeing Ni Meimei's smile, Chen Mo was a little stunned for a while.

"Oh, yes, one more thing. ”

Ni Meili placed a delicate invitation on the table from her bag.

"This is a wild card for an invitation to a food competition, and my dad said that this wild card should belong to you. ”
