Chapter 406: Eat and Eat in London
According to Ye Chao, he is a person who will be destroyed at any time, not that his body will be destroyed, but that his heart is gone-if he is completely devoured by the heart of the Demon Dao, it is equivalent to destruction.
So, eat when you can, drink when you can, and play when you can......
In a restaurant, Ye Chao took the menu and ordered.
British cuisine can be described in one word – "Simple". There are only two ways to make it: bake it in the oven, or put it in a pot to cook, don't put any condiments when cooking, and put some salt, pepper or mustard and spicy soy sauce according to your personal preferences. It is said to respect everyone's likes and dislikes, but it is inevitable that there is a suspicion of cutting corners.
Eating British food is in love, and taste and love are all your own choices. It's not about the tongue to judge the taste, it's about the heart.
In the British food culture, British food is very rich, and the human body says that all kinds of nutrients will be met from these different foods, among which the standard of British breakfast includes bacon, black pudding, fried eggs, bread, tomato and tea.
The selection of British cuisine is relatively simple, although it is an island country and a vast sea area, but it is limited by geographical and natural conditions, and the fishing ground is not very good, so the British do not pay attention to eating seafood, and prefer beef, mutton, poultry, etc.
Also, British food has a light and original taste.
The simple and effective use of high-quality ingredients, while maintaining their original texture and flavour as much as possible, is an important feature of British cuisine. British cuisine does not have many choices of raw materials, and is generally made with a single ingredient, requiring the chef to maintain the original flavor of the dish without adding ingredients.
British cuisine is known as "family cuisine", and British cooking methods are rooted in home-cooked dishes, so dishes can only achieve satisfactory results when the ingredients are home-grown, home-raised, and home-made.
The cooking is simple and full of character. British cuisine is relatively simple, the side dishes are relatively simple, the use of herbs and wine is less, and the commonly used cooking methods are boiling, stewing, roasting, frying, steaming, etc.
For example, braised mutton with potatoes, oxtail soup, roast lamb saddle, roast goose, etc.
Ye Chao said suddenly: "Arugula, do you like to eat it, Xiaoyanyan, uh, this arugula also grows in many places in China." ”
Tang Yan was listless: "Well, whatever...... Arugula is good too......"
Arugula is also known as Arabidopsis purpurea, also known as brassica, German mustard, etc., and its English names are rocket and arugul, so it is named because its fresh leaf juice has a sesame fragrance.
In fact, there are really arugula in China, which are distributed in Heilongjiang, Liaoning, Inner Mongolia, Hebei, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Gansu, Qinghai, Xinjiang, and Sichuan. It can be found in the wild or cultivated, and is also found in northern Europe, western and northern Asia, and northwest Africa.
Born at an altitude of 1400-3100 meters. It is widely produced on the European continent and is one of the favorite seasonal vegetables of Londoners.
The stems and leaves of the seed are used as vegetables and fodder, and the seeds can be pressed for oil for edible and medicinal purposes. The more popular ways to eat it are: stir-frying, boiling soup, cold salad or rice with sauce.
Arugula can be eaten with broth, salad, potatoes, and flour to make a very beautiful and flavorful dish, or it can be eaten with other vegetable dips. In addition, arugula seeds can also be used to make wasabi with a strong flavor.
"Whatever, how about another Neeps?" Ye Chao asked with a smile.
"Good. ”
Neeps is what we usually call carrot puree, this food is very common in the UK, because it is the traditional companion of Haggis, almost all British people enjoy Haggis at the same time, it is relatively simple to make, peel the carrots, cook for 15 minutes, stir and mix into the ingredients, the taste is light, if you don't eat Haggis, it is also very popular.
"Breakfast, hehe, we're tacky, two English breakfasts, do you eat them often?"
"Whatever......" Tang Yan replied indifferently.
The English breakfast is served with orange juice and corn flakes, topped with milk and sugar.
Then there is the main course, which is generally bacon, sausage, and fried egg with fried mushrooms or tomatoes (fried tomatoes are quite tasty). And of course toast. Finally, there is coffee or black tea, and there is also traditional British milk tea. It's an English breakfast.
"Uh, two more grilled steaks......"
Grilled steak, which is considered a masterpiece of British cuisine, is made by grilling large pieces of raw beef with oil in the oven. Like fried steak, the cooked beef can be eaten with wasabi sauce, and Yorkshire pudding is famous as a side dish.
"Let's talk about it first, I may not be able to finish it......" Tang Yan doesn't eat much steak, besides, such a large piece of steak is really not something that ordinary women can eat.
"I'll help you eat...... No waste. Then have an Irish beef stew and try the flavors of the place......"
Irish beef stew is a traditional dish in Ireland. If you like it, you can add a variety of seasonal vegetables to this stew, such as carrots, white radish, mushrooms, etc., sometimes a little creativity can bring unexpected results to your dish.
The little secret of this Irish beef stew is the use of beer, which is traditionally made with Irish dark beers, such as Guinness. Of course, if you can't find a dark beer, you can substitute it with another beer.
"Another Haggis ......" Ye Chao said to the waiter this time, and the waiter wrote the slip with a smile. is obviously happy to meet such a local tyrant as Ye Chao......
Haggis is transliterated as haggis, similar to a large sausage, known locally as haggis pudding, originally a traditional food in Scotland, because of its mellow taste, gradually spread throughout Europe, and is also regarded as a traditional food in London.
The recipe is similar to that of Steak-and-kidney pudding, which is made by chopping haggis, mixing it with other condiments, filling it in pig intestines, and steaming it. You can eat it on the streets of London, and most Londoners eat Haggis with carrots, Welsh cheese and other delicacies that you can't help but try when you arrive in London.
"Another Dover plaice......," Ye Chao said.
Fish dishes in the UK are quite delicious, and there are several restaurant chains in London that specialise in fish dishes. In particular, the plaice caught in the Strait of Dover is light and delicious.
"Fish & Potato Fries ......"
Fish is mostly flounder or cod, eaten with french fries dipped in salt or vinegar (many Britons use both), and is very popular with the general public. There are also cucumbers and creamy sausages (sausages coated in batter and fried) that are sure to whet your appetite.
At this time, Ye Chao put down the menu, "That's all, two red wines, the best, don't give me low-priced wine or fake wine, don't be afraid that I can't afford to pay." Wine is really not afraid of high prices, wine fake, be careful that I smash your shop. ”
"Oh, good sir, we will do our best to satisfy you. The waiter said.
