Chapter 588: Fragrance Smeller
"Is this all right?" The fat man rubbed his hands and stared excitedly at the 'shredded pork with Beijing sauce' next to him, and his eyes were about to pop out.
"Well, okay. Liu Mang nodded, and put the dried tofu skin that had just been scalded in another small dish and sent it to the bar.
"How can you eat this, boss?" Lao Zhang asked after seeing the extra plate of dried tofu skin that Liu Mang had served.
Dried tofu skin, also known as Qianzhang, Baiye, is a particularly large, particularly thin and certain toughness of dried tofu, beige color, can be cold, can be fried, can be cooked. There is a famous dish in Hubei "Qianzhang shredded meat", that is, Qianzhang is used as raw material.
"You haven't eaten it before?" asked Liu Mang.
"Nope. Lao Zhang shook his head: "I've only seen this shutter in a hot pot, boiling the fish head, cutting it into four squares and serving it, but it's the first time I've seen it." ”
"I haven't eaten either. The fat man raised his hand weakly: "I have heard of this dish, but it is the first time I have eaten it." ”
"Oh......" Liu Mang thought for a while, and then understood.
Although 'shredded pork with Beijing sauce' is famous, it is mostly spread in the north, like many restaurants in the south, and this dish cannot be found at all.
For people who have never been to the north in their entire lives and only go around the south, it is not surprising that they have not eaten.
"You've always eaten roast duck, right?" asked Liu Mang again.
"Roast duck we had. The fat man and Lao Zhang replied.
"This 'shredded pork in Kyoto sauce' is eaten in a similar way to roast duck. ”
After speaking, Liu Mang reached out and took a hundred leaves from the plate, used chopsticks to pick up some shredded meat and green onions, and rolled them into a cylinder.
"Well, I see. The fat man took the lead in picking up a shutter, followed Liu Mang's demonstration, sandwiched some shredded meat and green onions, and stuffed it into his mouth.
"How does it taste?" asked Lao Zhang.
"Very ...... It's delicious!" the fat man's mouth was slurred, and every pore on his face seemed to be rippling with joy.
The scalded shutters are very soft and have a little tenacity, when they are wrapped in shredded green onions and shredded meat covered with sweet noodle sauce, and chewed in the mouth, the spicy feeling of green onions, the smoothness of shredded meat, and the unique saltiness and sweetness of sweet noodle sauce are all mixed together, making people feel extremely satisfied.
"The taste of shredded meat alone is a bit heavy, but the shutters are just right. Lao Zhang first added some shredded meat and tasted it, and then tried to eat it together with a shutter, and he was also full of praise.
"Especially this sauce, why is it so delicious? The fat man put the chopsticks into his mouth and sipped them: "Sweet and salty, special fresh!"
"Yes, boss, you have sweet noodle sauce here, right? Where did you buy it? Let's go buy some too, and eat it with cucumbers later." Lao Zhang also said.
"Uh...... I can't buy it on the market, and this sweet noodle sauce is homemade. Liu Mang replied.
"That's ......," Lao Zhang showed a disappointed expression.
"If you really like it, I'll send you a can later. ”
"That's great!" the fat man and old Zhang Xi smiled.
"With this sauce, even if it's mixed with rice, it's delicious!"
"Do you need rice?" asked Liu Mang.
"Yes, this dish must not be enough to eat!" the fat man nodded hurriedly.
"Please wait. Liu Mang turned back to the back kitchen and scooped two large bowls of rice from the rice cooker and served them.
Just as the fat man and Lao Zhang were feasting, the wooden door was pushed open, and a young man led a middle-aged man in.
"Good evening, boss. The young man waved at Liu Mang.
"Hello. ”
This young man is Sun Chaohui, who handed Liu Mang a business card last time and invited him to open a restaurant together.
"Introduction, this is Mr. Lu Tianming, the editor-in-chief of the famous food magazine "Jamie Oliver". When I returned to China this time, I specially brought him to taste the boss's craftsmanship. Sun Chaohui introduced to Liu Mang.
"Welcome!" Liu Mang smiled.
"It's so fragrant!" As soon as Lu Tianming sat down, he immediately sniffed and glanced at the plate in front of the fat man and Lao Zhang next to him: "Master, the sweet noodle sauce you put in this dish is brewed by yourself." ”
Hearing Lu Tianming say this, Liu Mang's face showed a trace of surprise: "That's right, it's indeed self-made." ”
"Editor-in-Chief Lu, can you smell this?" Sun Chaohui said curiously.
"Of course. Lu Tianming was a little proud: "Xiao Sun, don't forget, in addition to being the editor-in-chief of a food magazine, I am also a smeller, and there is nothing to hide in front of me." ”
"I almost forgot. Sun Chaohui patted his head: "Even the complex ingredients in perfumes can be identified, not to mention sauces." ”
"Smeller?" Liu Mang was stunned.
He has also heard of this profession, and it is said that professional perfumers can recognize the smell of more than 4,000 perfumes without any instruments, which is very magical.
"Boss, do you only have 'shredded pork with Beijing sauce' today?" asked Sun Chaohui.
"Well, yes. Liu Mang nodded.
"What's the matter, there's no menu here?" Lu Tianming was a little strange.
"No, but whatever you want to eat, the boss can do it. ”
"Isn't it??" Lu Tianming was a little unconvinced.
"You don't know, last time I ordered a 'Twenty-Four Bridges Bright Moon Night', and the boss made it for me. That taste, it really doesn't need to be said!" Sun Chaohui licked his lips and replied.
"Twenty-four bridges and bright moon nights?, Mr. Jin Yong's dish?" Lu Tianming's eyes widened.
"That's right!"
"It also depends on the fact that if I don't have the ingredients for the dish you ordered, I won't be able to make it. Liu Mang interjected.
"Master, can the 'Twenty-Four Bridges Bright Moon Night' be made today?" Lu Tianming asked.
"I'm afraid not, I used it last time, and now I don't have it in stock. Liu Mang shook his head.
"What if there are ingredients?" Lu Tianming asked again.
"Of course you can make it with ingredients. ”
"Editor-in-Chief Lu, why don't you try the boss's 'Beijing Sauce Shredded Pork' first, I'm hungry. Seeing the fat man and Lao Zhang next to him eating deliciously, Sun Chaohui couldn't help it.
"Okay, then let's have a 'shredded pork in Beijing sauce'. Lu Tianming nodded and agreed.
"Boss, we're leaving. The fat man wiped his mouth with a tissue and stood up.
"How much?" Lao Zhang reached out of his wallet.
"Oh, fifty. ”
"Give...... We'll come back next time. ”
"Well, goodbye. ”
After Lao Zhang and the fat man left, Liu Mang walked to the back kitchen, cut some shredded meat, and quickly made a 'Beijing sauce shredded pork' and sent it to the bar.
"Well, it looks really good!" Lu Tianming pinched a piece of shutter, wrapped it in some green onion and shredded meat, and put it in his mouth to chew.
"It's delicious! It's delicious!" When Lu Tianming swallowed the food in his mouth, he couldn't help but praise again and again: "Especially this homemade sweet noodle sauce, it is really salty, sweet and delicious, and the taste is mellow! I have eaten many chefs' 'Beijing sauce shredded pork', but it tastes so good, it's the first time!"
"I'm not wrong, Editor-in-Chief Lu. Many delicacies are not only found in high-end restaurants, but also in street shops, which can chew the true taste of the world!"
