Ying Ying looked up and saw that Lizi was holding a white crystal glass bowl in her hand, and there was a light green "radish" covered in pimples.

She had never seen this kind of dish, so she looked at Xiao Hai, and after seeing Xiao Hai see the "radish", her eyes lit up, and she knew that it must be something delicious.

Xiaohai was busy translating to Yingying, this is the green "horseradish" eaten with sashimi and sushi.

In fact, Yingying has already understood Lizi's words with the help of the power of the "book demon" worm.

When she heard wasabi, she couldn't help but feel a shock in her heart, thinking that Aoi told herself that she was a wasabi demon.

Then the wasabi in this glass bowl is not Xiao Kui's family?

Thinking about it, she suddenly didn't know whether to eat it or not.

Satoko quickly used a knife to remove the green leaves from the head of the wasabi, then took a frosted board-like object and sharpened the wasabi in a circle on it.

Suddenly, piles of green and delicate "wasabi mud" appeared on the frosted board.

Ying Ying looked at it and imagined that Xiaokui was also caught, and she couldn't help but shudder in her heart when she was ground into mud on the scrub board.

Lizi distributed the ground wasabi puree to everyone, and Xiaohai and Shanyou couldn't wait, so they immediately started eating with chopsticks.

After eating, they praised the taste.

Ying Ying held the chopsticks in her right hand and stopped in the air, her eyes staring at the wasabi mud on her plate, but she couldn't make up her mind to eat it.

Xiaohai noticed that Ying Ying didn't move her chopsticks for a long time, so she said, "Ying Ying, why don't you eat it?

In fact, it is only a little spicy, and the aftertaste is sweet, you can taste it. ”

After that, Xiaohai put a small piece of wasabi puree on a piece of salmon fillet, picked it up and dipped it gently in a soy sauce dish, and then put it on Yingying's plate.

Ying Ying swallowed her saliva and looked at the wasabi puree soaked in soy sauce and dyed amber on the sashimi, and her heart was mixed.

"This is just an ordinary wasabi, not a demon, you can eat it with confidence. Don't be violent. ”

Yingying's ears and eyes came the thin voice of the "book demon" insect.

Ying Yingru was greatly relieved when she received amnesty, thinking that she was too scared to move her chopsticks just now, she couldn't help but smile.

Xiao Hai thought that Ying Ying was smiling at herself, and she couldn't help but have a bright smile on her face.

After tasting the wasabi puree and raw salmon fillet, Ying Ying felt that it was really delicious.

The spice of the wasabi and the sweetness of the salmon blend together perfectly, as if they were singing a very good ballad, and the aftermath lingers.

Just feeling this deliciousness, I heard Xiaohai ask Lizi, "I have never eaten such a delicious wasabi, where is this produced?"

Satoko said with a smile, "This is something we only have in Okutamagawa, and Sakurayama specialty wasabi."

All Fuso, only our wasabi on Sakurayama, the grade is the highest. ”

Yamayu accosted, "Yes, because Sakurayama is blessed with a unique geographical environment, and the mountain is rich in special minerals.

The temperature is also between 14 and 18 degrees Celsius, which is ideal for wasabi.

That's why we have such a good wasabi here. ”

Xiao Hai nodded, admiring.

Ying Ying listened to their conversation and knew everything, but she could only pretend not to understand.

I only heard the "book demon" insect say in his ears and eyes, "Actually, Sakurayama was blessed with the divine qi of many gods, and it was only by inhaling the essence that such a good wasabi was grown.

Those wasabi demons are also generated by the energy of the gods. Minerals and everything, that's all wishful thinking and blind explanations by human beings. ”

Ying Ying didn't think it was funny to hear, but she had to pretend to be nothing on the surface.

Shanyou usually doesn't talk much, but today he was very happy, and after a few more drinks, he opened the conversation.

I only heard him say again: "We have a lot of treasures in Okuyuchuan."

There are wasabi, there are cherry salmon, that is, the salmon you eat today, which are among the best in Fuso country.

In particular, this wasabi can't be bought in the market. ”

Xiao Hai was surprised: "Huh, really, why can't you buy it if you want to?"

Satoko pursed her lips and smiled and nodded in agreement with her husband's words.

"You may not know that wasabi is a pampered crop that requires a lot of effort to cultivate, but even then there is no guarantee of yield.

However, the extremely high-quality wasabi of our Okutama River grows on the top of our cherry blossom mountain, and it is not grown by man.

We all felt that it was the gods who lived on Sakurayama who blessed us.

In the past, the townspeople of Okutama River used to go up the mountain to dig and mine wasabi, and they could sell for a high price in the market.

However, in recent years, the wasabi on Sakurayama has become increasingly scarce.

We, the Ito family, have been guarding Sakurayama and the gods of the mountain for generations.

Now that the gods have given less of wasabi, we decided that we would not allow the townspeople to go up the mountain anymore and harvest wasabi to sell at the market.

Every year we collect only a small amount for the locals to eat during the festival.

But even so, it's almost out of supply. ”
