Chapter 124: Sharp Bai Xiaobai
After Bai Xiaobai finished talking about the three deadly sins of ingredients, many customers were not calm, and they started talking about it again.
"What does he mean when he says it's not real duck blood? No way, I can still tell the difference between pig blood and duck blood, and this taste is duck blood. ”
"yes, I've eaten it several times, it should be real duck blood!" Another customer was not sure.
"Also, what does he mean when he says that the little squid is fake, is there still a fake squid?"
In the face of the suspicion of more and more customers, the bearded man's abacus of wanting to calm things down has been unable to sound, his face is now very ugly, he gritted his teeth to suppress the anger that was about to explode, and said word by word, "Brother, where is the evidence?" You said so much, what evidence is there to prove what you said, there is no basis for what you say, you have to show evidence." ”
In the face of the bearded man's aggressiveness, Bai Xiaobai didn't argue with him too much, but made a move.
Use chopsticks to pick up a piece of the best duck blood hair you ordered.
After the duck blood was wiped clean by Bai Xiaobai with a napkin, he pinched it in his hand and shook it gently, and then said:
"The biggest difference between real duck blood and fake duck blood is that the toughness is different, the real duck blood is more and more tender the more it is cooked, and the chopsticks will break as soon as it is clamped, while the fake duck blood is added with chemicals, the toughness is enhanced, and there is a kind of toughness to eat gelatinous matter, and it is not tender. Second, after the real duck blood is processed, it does not have a fishy smell, but has a faint duck fragrance, but your duck blood has a faint fishy smell. ”
After listening to Bai Xiaobai's statement, a customer agreed, "It's really interesting, so I also think that the taste of this duck blood is a bit problematic, and it tastes very tough." ”
"Come on, you promised to say it was real duck blood. Now as soon as this handsome pot is said, you will fall aside. One customer grinned and teased his friend.
"I've always thought there was something wrong with duck blood, but I just didn't say it. The customer insisted on his face.
The onlookers felt empathy for Bai Xiaobai's description, and they didn't think it was strange, but this is really the case.
"Shuai Guo, I want you to say, this duck blood is not real, what is it made of?" asked from the crowd.
Bai Xiaobai frowned slightly, and said lightly, "Made with ox blood mixed with gelatin and carmine." Gelatin is added to make the taste of cow blood tender and closer to real duck blood. The food dye carmine can make the color of cow blood very close to duck blood, even if the connoisseur is not careful, it will not be able to distinguish. In addition, because Sichuan cuisine itself is added with chili peppers and peppercorns, it is spicy and fragrant, which can cover the fishy smell of the ox blood itself. ”
"Damn, expert, it's amazing!" a customer couldn't help but look at the young Bai Xiaobai.
"Damn, I said, why can't I eat it, this fake is too high-end, right? ”
"This guy knows so much, and the tone of the review is quite famous, it can't be a food expert!" An uncle looked at Bai Xiaobai with admiration in his eyes.
"It doesn't look like his age, this little brother is in his early twenties at most, how can he be a food expert, but he may be a gourmet's son. ”
In the face of the praise of customers, Bai Xiaobai was not complacent, and his expression was very humble and calm.
When he was a child, he ran a restaurant with his parents, and Bai Xiaobai started by picking ingredients.
When he grows up, he buys meat and vegetables in the market, Bai Xiaobai doesn't even need to touch or smell it, as long as he looks at the color and luster of the ingredients, whether it is fresh or not can be determined.
Bai Xiaobai can basically distinguish the food cooked from adulterated ingredients, and since he has a food system, he feels that his sense of taste seems to be one step closer.
"Brother, after talking for a long time, you have said according to your meaning, and you still have no evidence. "The bearded man just didn't admit that there was a problem with the ingredients, or used this sentence to scold Bai Xiaobai.
Bai Xiaobai was as calm as the wind, and said lightly, "If you are so confident, you can do a chemical composition identification, the chemical composition of cow blood and duck blood is different, and the truth will be revealed after a test." ”
Bai Xiaobai said the truth, and every word was heartfelt. Where does the bearded man with a weak heart dare to do an appraisal, he is already sweating all over his forehead, and his face is getting more and more ugly, and he is now eager to sew Bai Xiaobai's mouth with a needle and thread.
After listening to Bai Xiaobai's wonderful insights on fake duck blood, some customers still couldn't get enough of it and asked, "Shuai Guo, isn't this a crime, and what's more, the yellow eel is not wild, and the little squid is fake, what is the saying about this?" ”
Bai Xiaobai hit the nail on the head and said, "The yellow eels used in this pot are farmed, not wild." Wild eel meat is firm, tough, chewy, and has a special sweetness and aroma. The farmed yellow eel has loose flesh and a strange smell, even if it is spicy, it cannot be completely removed. ”
Bai Xiaobai said eloquently, "And the small squid used in this dish is not real squid at all, it is synthesized by artificial plastic." This kind of plastic squid itself does not have any nutrients, and there is basically no squid flavor, but the taste is smooth and tough, and the bite is better than that of real squid, because the cost is very low, so many barbecue stalls will use it. But it's unreasonable that your menu description clearly states that it is wild squid, but you use plastic squid. ”
Wave after wave of unevenness, Bai Xiaobai's last sentence caused an uproar.
"After saying this, when I ate squid just now, I didn't think it smelled like squid, and I thought it was overcooked, and it turned out to be artificial plastic......
"Gou, mommy. Squid made of plastic for Lao Tzu to eat. XXXXXXX……”
"Boss Hu, what do you want to say? ”
"I have to give an explanation......"
The customer's emotions were quite excited, although they were suspicious of Bai Xiaobai's words, but they all asked the bearded man for an explanation.
After all, if the best duck blood and hairs of 188 yuan are used, then the cliff is a proper pit guest.
Now the situation is one-sided towards Bai Xiaobai, coupled with the large number of people, the beard is a little speechless, his eyes widened, looking at Bai Xiaobai viciously, eager to swallow the life in front of him.
All of a sudden, the restaurant was in chaos, and many customers joined the line of verbal criticism, asking what the explanation of the bearded ingredients was.
"Everyone, be quiet for a moment, and let me say a word. "Just when there was chaos, a neutral voice was unusually clear in the noisy and quarrelsome sound of the crowd.
Everyone looked at it and saw that it was an old man with slightly gray hair.
"It's Guo Lao. Someone immediately recognized the old man in front of him.
"Guo Lao, one of the leaders in the Sichuan cuisine industry, this is the first time I have seen a real person. Some of the customers seemed to have seen the true God, and their voices were very excited.
Guo Linbi often appears on the food column of Shu City TV Station, with his superb cooking skills and unique insights on food, he has attracted a large number of fans, and many Shuchuan people are familiar with him and call him Guo Lao.
Guo Linbi was originally tasting food in a private room, but after the bearded man left, he heard what seemed to be an argument downstairs, so he simply went downstairs to see the situation.
Unexpectedly, after going downstairs, he heard Bai Xiaobai's three deadly sins of ingredients.
"Young man, your eloquence is indeed good, and you are quite knowledgeable about the ingredients, but I have also eaten this dish, and it is not in the same situation as you said. Guo Linbi said to Bai Xiaobai seriously.
Guo Linbi is not maintaining a beard, but just telling the truth.
Bai Xiaobai had already understood from the conversations of the surrounding customers just now that the old man in front of him was a food expert, very authoritative, and could be called a Sichuan cuisine master.
However, Bai Xiaobai will not grovel because the other party is an expert, still adhere to his principles, and say reasonably, "I don't know if you have eaten this dish, but at least you haven't eaten the one in front of me, so how can I be sure that the ingredients used in my dish must be fine." ”
Bai Xiaobai's tone was very light, but his words were very sharp, which directly blocked Guo Linbi speechless.
Guo Linbi was a little flustered, it was the first time he was so repugnated by an unknown junior, he was really unhappy, but this young man was indeed telling the truth.
After all, this one is not the same as the one in my private room, I haven't tasted it, and I really don't have the right to speak.
Picking up a pair of clean chopsticks, Guo Linbi picked up Bai Xiaobai's best duck blood and hair, and tasted it.
Originally, he wanted to extinguish the arrogance of the young man in front of him, but he didn't expect Guo Lin to just taste it, and his whole body stiffened, and he was speechless for a long time.
How so?
