Chapter Ninety-Three: The Essence of Cooking
The gluttonous worms in everyone's hearts were seduced, their mouths grew up, their eyes widened, but they couldn't help but swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva.
Author's statement (this paragraph does not count towards the word count)
No matter how delicious the dish in front of them was, it was not something they could touch.
Chen Wanqing's dexterous little nose moved, and she was completely moved, her eyebrows were full of spring, and she coquettishly said to Su Xuan: "Su Xuan, after Lai Lao leaves, can you cook a dish for me?"
"Hehe!" Su Xuan laughed evilly, a pair of eyes roamed on Chen Wanqing's delicate body, and muttered: "Well, of course it's okay, but you should know that what I hate the most is cooking, if you can serve me well, I will definitely not let you down." ”
"How can I serve you?" Chen Wanqing regretted this sentence as soon as she came out, as long as she was an adult, she was afraid that she would be able to read the ** in Su Xuan's eyes.
"Really, how can you think of such a question at any time. Chen Wanqing's words were quite resentful.
Even though she and Su Xuan developed rapidly, hearing such words in front of her father made her a little embarrassed.
"This is mutual, if you make me happy, I will make you happy, if it is you who are happy, how much I should suffer. Su Xuan said, gently opened the steamer, his hands were not afraid of being hot, and he directly took out the plate and put it on the table.
"This is the second food of napoleon wrasse, please taste it. Su Xuan said to Lai Lao.
Lai Lao nodded excitedly, gently picked up a piece of fish meat and put it in his mouth, a pure herbal fragrance mixed with the feeling of fish umami, melted in his mouth, and spread in his mouth.
"Okay, good!" Lai Lao said three good words in a row, and his mouth was stuffed with fish and meat, and he was reluctant to say a word more, just caring about the big piece of flowers.
Chen Tianwen and Lai Lao's bodyguards on the side were all stupid, compared to the influence of Lai Lao's family, his own reputation for gluttony was even more famous.
When have they ever seen Lai Lao, who is so demanding on diet that he is perverted, eat a fish like this regardless of his image.
Thinking about it, they were even more curious about the taste of this napoleon wrasse, and the saliva secretion rate accelerated, and they couldn't wait to pounce on it and taste it.
After five minutes, Lai Lao ate most of the meat of the wrasse, wiped his mouth with all his intentions, and exclaimed: "It is the best in the world, not to mention the taste of fish, the law of diet alone is to achieve the extreme, fried fish is the most fragrant, first use this to hook out my gluttony, after eating greasy is a light fish fragrance, not only dilute the greasy just now, but also add a trace of peculiar charm, worthy of the real god of food." ”
Su Xuan was no longer surprised by such a compliment, so he picked up the leftover fish bones from Lai Lao again and put them in the pressure cooker: "Now it's the third time to eat." ”
Lai Lao nodded with satisfaction, and asked with a little curiosity: "Su Xuan, one eats skin, the second eats meat, and the third eats bones, I understand, but what is the fourth food in the end?"
Everyone's curiosity was seduced, and the gaze that looked at Su Xuan no longer had disdain and disdain, but a kind of admiration from the heart.
Su Xuan's expression did not change in the slightest, or rather, he didn't care what these people thought of him at all, and there was no need to prove his value to these people.
"As for the fourth eat, you'll know it when you eat it, and if you say it in advance, the taste will fade. Su Xuan said.
If you want to eat fish bones, you have to stew them completely, which takes a long time.
In the middle of this, the incident of the tens of millions of feasts in Mingyue Building, which was fried in a few days, once again had a new change.
After almost all people heard that someone had ordered this dish, their first reaction was that it must be Mingyuelou's self-hype.
Some ill-intentioned people wanted to come over and debunk this trick, but when they walked to the door of Mingyue Tower, they noticed Lai Lao's car and the surrounding posture.
They were smart and well-connected, and they soon knew that the person who came over today turned out to be the famous giant crocodile in the capital, and the absolute champion of the food industry, Lai Feilong-Lai Lao.
After getting the news, these people came aggressively, and they were indeed sneaky when they left.
Putting aside the influence of the Lai family, with Lai Feilong's reputation in the food industry alone, as long as the restaurant that has been praised by him will definitely double its popularity in the next few months.
While these people were secretly glad that they were not reckless, they also had a strong curiosity about Su Xuan's cooking skills.
Half an hour later, Su Xuan felt that it was almost there, so he turned on the pressure cooker, but instead of bringing out the plate inside, he asked someone to bring over a plate and put it in front of Lai Feilong.
"Now it's the third eat, keel!"
With Su Xuan's voice, he picked up a pair of long chopsticks and put them into the pressure cooker, moved slightly, and when he pulled them out again, there was already a complete crystal clear fish bone on the chopsticks, which was firmly placed in front of Lai Feilong.
"I've been to so many places, I've seen too many celebrity chefs, and you're the first one who dares to use fish bones as a dish for me to eat. Lai Feilong quietly watched Su Xuan's reaction.
"Dislike is a fish bone?" Su Xuan glared at him, the chopsticks in his hand were crooked, and he directly picked them up and stuffed them into his mouth, and said vaguely: "You don't want to eat, I won't let you yet." ”
"Ancestor, you want my life. Lai Feilong was completely anxious, stood up, and used his arm to protect the remaining half of the fish bones like a dog protecting food.
It seems that as long as someone dares to grab this bone from him, he will fight for the other party.
Everyone present couldn't help but feel embarrassed, they really couldn't imagine that Lai Feilong's identity could say such things and do such things.
"Do you still think it's a bone?" Su Xuan looked at Lai Feilong with a smile on his face, and moved the chopsticks in his hand threateningly.
"No, no, as long as you make it, I'm willing to eat anything. Lai Feilong can be said to have a deep understanding of Su Xuan, knowing that this product will always do unbelievable things, no longer caring about his own image, he directly grabbed the fish bone on the plate with his hand and swallowed it in one mouthful.
The people around couldn't bear to look at it anymore.
Su Xuan was also a little surprised: "I said old man, isn't it just a little bone, are you fighting so hard?"
Lai Feilong glanced at Su Xuan: "If I can eat this bone every day, I am willing to live ten years less, the key is that I will eat it for the first time in my life." ”
"Forget it. Su Xuan didn't say politely at all: "You are already in your seventies, if this is the case, you are afraid that you will have to die after this meal." ”
As soon as these words came out, the surroundings were stunned.
Lai Feilong's four bodyguards looked at Su Xuan with cold expressions, and looked at Su Xuan with unkind faces, as if as long as Lai Feilong had one color, they would abolish Su Xuan.
Chen Tianwen was even more like a great enemy, sweat dripping from his sideburns, and he scolded: "Su Xuan, what nonsense are you talking about? ”
Sun Zhiai, who was too frightened to speak, was now in his spirits, and said to the four bodyguards: "Everyone says that the master humiliates the servant to death, and your master is about to be cursed to death, what are you still doing in a daze." ”
The four bodyguards of the tall horse glanced at each other, they all saw the hesitation in each other's eyes, usually Lai Feilong is the most taboo for others to say the word dead, but now it seems that he is not angry.
"Hahaha!" Lai Feilong laughed, and everyone's hearts rose to their throats, and many people thought that this was a sign that he was about to become angry.
When the four bodyguards were about to make a move, Chen Wanqing was anxious to open her mouth to mention Su Xuan's defense, but Lai Feilong patted Su Xuan on the shoulder: "There are not many truths that I can hear like this, so I recognize you as a little friend." ”
The word friend can be big or small, it can be a general friend, or it can be a friend of life and death.
Now everyone on the field noticed that Lai Feilong did not regard Su Xuan as a cook from beginning to end, but a friend with equal status, as if everything followed Su Xuan.
At this moment, Chen Wanqing couldn't help but think that she had just met Su Xuan, and he looked like a migrant worker, and she would never have thought that he would know such a giant crocodile.
Chen Tianwen couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, he couldn't help but make up for it, if that sentence just now was what he said to Lai Feilong, I'm afraid he would basically become a cripple now.
For the Su Xuan in front of him, whom he had always looked down on, and even extremely despised, he felt a trace of awe for the first time.
Su Xuan's "nonsense" before gradually became mysterious in his heart.
"Okay, don't get close to me, whatever you say, after eating this meal, don't always come to me if you have nothing to do in the future, you better hurry up and eat the fourth meal." “
After Su Xuan finished speaking impatiently, he came over with a blue and white porcelain bowl and put it in front of Lai Lao, and then poured the remaining residual soup in the pressure cooker and the juice dripping from the herbs in the steamer into it, and said loudly: "Eat the last one, drink the soup." ”
If a chef puts together the leftovers from the previous dish and says it's the final dish, the restaurant may be smashed.
Lai Feilong opened his mouth and was about to say something, but suddenly thought of the lesson just now, hurriedly shut up, and tasted it gently.
Although this soup looks a little messy, I can't help but close my eyes and taste it after taking the first sip.
The last soup blended all the essence of the first three foods, and every time Lai Feilong ate it was not so clean, he could find the taste of the first three foods when he tasted it carefully.
The most important thing is that he originally thought that after eating it, he might not be able to eat Su Xuan's fish again, and this dish undoubtedly gave him an unexpected surprise.
This dish brings out the essence of culinary skills to the extreme, both in terms of taste and psychology.
"Lai Lao, overall, do you think this four-eaten Napoleon wrasse is worth 10 million?" Su Xuan lowered his head and mouthed his nails.
"It's worth it, it's so worth. Lai Feilong did not hesitate to praise him.
"Okay!" Su Xuan finished speaking, his eyes suddenly turned to Chen Tianwen and Sun Zhiai, and the atmosphere in the hall became strange again.
