After reading the seasoning area, the manager took Johnson to the food area with great enthusiasm, although this is the most high-end imported supermarket, although there is no shortage of local tyrants in the magic capital, there are very few who are willing to spend 30,000 yuan to buy a small bottle of black vinegar.

It's rare to meet a knowledgeable local tyrant, and I can't wait to take out all the treasures at the bottom of the box, and sell hard: "You are the most discerning gourmand I have ever met, Almas caviar, this kind of superb you must not miss." ”

Johnson's eyes lit up, I didn't expect to meet the legendary dream food here, a small 18K gold exquisite packaging box, the price is 99,000, and it is really a local tyrant.

"Made in Iran, caviar is a precious ingredient, but it's a once-in-a-century rarity. Pure white, from white sturgeon over 100 years old, it takes up to 20 years to reach maturity. ”

"With an annual production of less than 100 sturgeons, the growth rate is very slow, and the sturgeon that is lucky enough to live to be more than 100 years old is known as the ginseng fruit of the ocean. Only 1/6,000 of the wild sturgeon caught have golden-brown albino eggs, and the price of caviar of the same quality exceeds that of gold!"

Holding a palm-sized gold box, Johnson has read a lot of food books, without exception, this caviar is worshipped as a god, originally thought that there was a chance to go to the place of origin to meet, but I didn't expect it......

The manager immediately explained: "Rest assured, this is the treasure of our town, with about 25,000 eggs per kilogram of Almas caviar packed into gold cans and vacuum-preserved to ensure the original flavor." ”

"It's usually served on small pieces of toast on its own and doesn't require anything to enhance the flavor. According to the locals, the moment you bite into it, with a crisp sound, the faint smell of sea water and the infinite umami of sturgeon immediately spreads in your mouth......"

Johnson smiled slightly, didn't say a word, and took it directly. It's a pity that there are only two boxes, at most two meals, try it first.

"Iberian ham, produced from the local endemic black pig, even the hooves are black, nicknamed black hooves. They are free-range in vast pastures and their main food is acorns. From October to January of the following year, when the acorns are knotted, each pig can grow to more than 600 kilograms, and the ham is refined for at least 24 months, and the best is 48 months. ”

The manager held an air-dried ham of about 7.5 kilograms, with a price tag of 13,000, and said with a smile: "This is the highest grade of acorn ham, and there are two other secondary products, filling type and compound feeding, I won't recommend those to you." ”

The ham in front of him reminds me of a gourmand who said: Walking through the streets of Madrid, you can see the traces of large and small ham museums everywhere, pure black pig ham, white pig ham, and tenderloin are placed in front of you, and the aroma of ham and hazelnut seems to tell the story of the past and present life of Iberian ham.

After a long period of production, the meat is rich and rich, and even the least greedy for meat will instantly fall in love with the delicious taste of ham on the tip of the tongue.

The district of Extremadura, which specializes in the production of Iberian ham, holds a unique ham-cutting competition every year, attracting many tourists.

Putting the ham in the shopping cart, a bag of rice appeared in front of him, reddish in color and peculiar in shape, and Johnson was surprised: "Is it rouge rice?"

The manager gave a thumbs up, patted his ass and said: "Yutian rouge rice, a tribute of the Qing Dynasty, only the emperor has the blessing to enjoy." ”

Tear open the package directly, take out a grain and say: "The rice grains are slender, the taste is fragrant, slightly green, and the lotus petals are red after cooking. Even if you return to the pot three times, it will not be rotten, and it can increase by about three times. ”

Johnson grabbed a small handful, held it in the palm of his hand and studied it carefully, the most special thing about rouge rice is that the spring is blue and green, and it can only be irrigated with pure mountain spring water, and can not use any chemical fertilizers and pesticides, otherwise the previous efforts will be wasted.

Rice is everywhere, a few cents a pound in the past, now a few dollars a pound, and more expensive more than a dozen yuan a pound. Cochineal rice, known as the most expensive, is four thousand per kilogram.

In the 53rd "Ningguo Mansion Chinese New Year's Eve Sacrifice Ancestral Hall Rongguo Mansion Lantern Festival Opening Night Banquet", Wu Jinxiao paid tribute to Jia Mansion, which wrote: Two stones of rouge rice in Yutian, fifty stones of binuo, fifty stones of white glutinous, fifty stones of powdered japonica, fifty stones of variegated supflora grains, and one thousand stones of common rice.

In the 42nd time, when the mandarin duck gave Grandma Liu two buckets of Yutian rouge rice on behalf of Jiafu, he said: Now this one is filled with two buckets of Yutian japonica rice, and it is rare to boil porridge.

In the 75th chapter, it was written that Jia's mother specially confessed: Send this bowl of red rice porridge to Brother Feng, when Wang Xifeng was sick.

Later, historians researched that it was impossible to enjoy such precious imperial rice at the level of Jiafu on a regular basis, and it may be that Cao Xueqin, who was rich in imagination, made history real and artistic, and to put it bluntly, it was obscenity.

Let Xia Hu move the last two bags of the warehouse, walk to the red wine area, and there is no surprise in taking a turn, it is better to take the goods from Ding Mengyao at a good price.

This is Parmesan cheese, known as the king of cheeses, and this hard cheese grows stronger the longer it ferments, and it is best served with Lafite and Bordeaux. ”

"Regular cheese is mixed with curd extracted from whole milk and soaked in brine for about 25 days. Fresh Parmesan cheese needs to be fermented for at least 12 months, and some for 6 years. ”

Six boxes were packed, and finally came to the fruit area, looking at a melon with a price tag of 1500, even Johnson couldn't help but be curious: "What the hell is this?"

"Yubari King melon, produced in the island country, this price is only parity, once a pair was sold for 23,500 US dollars, 150,000 yuan. ”

The manager smiled, "I went to Hokkaido to investigate, and the hybrid has a good taste due to the right ratio of sweetness. Grow in a greenhouse, and wear a hat to prevent sun damage. ”

"It has become a symbol of local status and is the most popular in the island nation, and the farmer who grows this melon is also known as the champion farmer. ”

"If you are in Sembikiya, the top fruit shop in the island country, they are definitely like Miss World contestants, each melon is surrounded by a white bag with the words MUSKMELONSPECIALSELECTION written on it. ”

"All kinds of strict environmental soil control, in order to make the melons sweeter, farmers will wear white cotton gloves and massage each melon every day......"

After listening to the manager's gushing, you girl, buy one and go back to taste it!

There were a few strange-shaped ugly oranges next to it, Xia Long looked at the label and said dissatisfiedly: "Forget about melons, ugly oranges on the rotten street dare to sell for four hundred and nine!"

"This is also from the island country, called Shiranui, which is very similar to the ugly orange, but with a bulge at the top, which is bigger and sweeter. It's hard to bite into, but it melts in your mouth, and it's known as the most famous orange. ”

"And this kind of apple, Sekai-ichi means the world's first. Honey is used for cleaning and hand-wrapping to avoid damage to the freshness. Pollinated artificially with small sticks, the apples are watered with honey, angel urine, and the tears of local tyrants. ”

Xia Long looked at each apple with a price tag of 299, his face was full of confusion, can you still go to the supermarket?
