427 Japanese cuisine
Although there are always people who criticize the simplicity of Japanese cuisine, and even say that the Japanese are not civilized and like to eat raw food, in Zeng Gong's eyes, the world's cuisine has the same goal, whether it is the Western diet that focuses on nutrition, the Japanese diet that emphasizes appearance, or the Chinese diet that emphasizes taste, all present their own characteristics to gourmets.
Sushi and sashimi are two of the specialties of Japanese cuisine. While the earliest sushi was a small dish made with rice, raw fish, and sauce that could be eaten in one bite, there are many types of sushi today, and you can put a lot of things in it, but it must be eaten in one bite.
Sashimi, also known as sashimi, is a dish in which fresh fish, shellfish, or beef are cut into small pieces or strips according to the appropriate knife technique, and served with a dipping sauce that blends soy sauce and wasabi puree. With its beautiful shape, fresh ingredients, soft and delicious taste, and pungent seasonings, it strongly attracts people's attention.
Although the decoration in this restaurant is traditional, the interior furnishings tend to be Westernized, there are no traditional Japanese tatami mats, but the interior pattern imitates the Western restaurant, and the surrounding decorations are also in the style of a Western restaurant, which makes people look very fresh, but Zeng Gong frowned.
"Mr. Zeng, do you think this restaurant is a little strange?" Thomas looked at Zeng Gong's expression, and knew what he was thinking, he was like this when he first came to this restaurant.
Zeng Gong honestly diǎndiǎn head, I really don't understand that from the outside, it looks like a particularly traditional building, and the interior decoration must also be traditional, but this restaurant is a little weird.
The proprietor is actually a Frenchman, and the proprietress is a Japanese, and when they first started to run Japanese food, they had a difference of ideas, and neither of them could convince the other, so they finally designed the restaurant according to their own ideas. That's why today's design style came about, and of course, it's this style that attracts many people from all over the world who love Japanese food. Seeing Zeng Gong diǎn head, Thomas immediately explained.
"Is this okay?" Zeng Gong stared at Thomas with some dumbfoundedness, but he didn't expect the weird style of this Japanese restaurant to be a little nonsensical.
"Otherwise, what do you think, is it the designer's clever use of two styles of design, and finally achieve a perfect match? Thomas rolled his eyes, and finally added: "The sashimi in this restaurant is all picked ∫dǐng∫diǎn∫ small ∫ said, .≮.♂os_(); They use the freshest fish from the pier on the same day, and if it is left overnight, they will sell the leftover fish cheaply or dispose of it as garbage, and it will never appear in the restaurant the next day. ”
"Hehe, Mr. Thomas, when you say that, I suddenly have a diǎn looking forward to today's Japanese cuisine. Zeng Gong said with a smile, he suddenly became interested in the food of this restaurant.
"Hehe, Mr. Zeng, don't worry, the owner of this restaurant is a friend of mine, and I will ask him to cook it himself in a while, and I will not disappoint you. Thomas said lightly.
"Oh, Thomas, is that you?" the two were talking, when suddenly a rough voice came from their side, and a little surprise flashed in Thomas's eyes.
"Dear Alec, are you alec, your business looks very good. Thomas hurriedly stood up and found a big man behind him looking at him in surprise, and Thomas also left his seat with a smile on his face and gave the big man a big hug.
"Thomas, I'm not the same as before, it's just that business is better because of this World Gambling King Conference, but you heard that you are promoted again, and you don't tell me about such a good thing, and celebrate it for you. Alec said excitedly.
"No matter how high you rise, I'm not still a working boy, but you have your own career and make your own decisions, which is much more comfortable than me. Thomas patted him on the shoulder and said with some emotion.
"Don't mention it, it's not good to be a boss, some bosses are born to work hard, such as me, I get up early and work late, and I get enough seafood on the dock before dawn. Alec said lightly, he said that it was hard, but in his heart he didn't feel anything, and it was his life's greatest wish to present the food to the diners.
"Come on, you didn't complain so much that time, let me introduce you, this is the owner of Qinglian Ranch, the largest comprehensive ranch in the United States, and the guest of this gambling king conference, Mr. Zeng Gong. After a few words with Alec, he quickly introduced the two of them.
"Mr. Zeng, this is Alec, Frenchman, and he is the owner of this Japanese restaurant. Thomas said, pointing at Alec.
"Hello. ”
"Hello. ”
Zeng Gong and Alec shook hands, which was considered to be acquaintance, and then sat quietly at the dining table, watching the two of them talk, and Alec was not very interested in Zeng Gong's identity as the owner of the largest ranch in the United States, and after a polite handshake, he talked to Thomas again.
"Thomas, good news for you, I've got a bluefin tuna, would you like to try it?" said Alec suddenly and mysteriously.
"Bluefin tuna?" Thomas looked at Alec in amazement, not expecting him to be so powerful.
Bluefin tuna is the largest species of tuna. The body is short, strong, tapered and elongated, with caudal fins in a crossed shape, bright colors from the base to the sides, dark blue on the upper torso, dark fins on the fins, yellowish tinkers on the small fins, and black raised crest on the caudal peduncle. The whole body is covered with scales, the mouth is quite large, the eyes are not large, and the pectoral fin is short, and the end is less than the center of the first dorsal fin, which is the largest characteristic of this species. The body length is generally 1-3 meters, and the largest one is more than 3 meters long.
The meat is delicious and is one of the most popular edible fish. Japan's sashimi, in particular, considers bluefin tuna to be the tastiest sashimi, and the number of bluefin tuna in the world has been greatly reduced due to overfishing in recent decades. EU fisheries experts have warned that bluefin tuna could become extinct if fishing is not restricted.
"That's right, that's it, and it took me a lot of effort to get out of the competition. Alec said excitedly.
"Then what are you waiting for, quickly diǎn'er get it. Thomas said excitedly.
As a veteran gourmet, his lifelong wish is to eat all the world's cuisines, and if the cuisine is current, he will never give up his dedication to food, such as sashimi made with bluefin tuna, and as for the extinction of bluefin tuna?
"You wait. Alec glanced at Zeng Gong and said lightly. (To be continued.) )
