215 Magical charm
Ronald is like a child, staring at his beloved "toy". Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
That preoccupied look really made people laugh, Lily leaned into Song Lingyi's ear and said with a chuckle, "Trust me, he'll like it." Man, always. That playful tone made Song Lingyi laugh, and glanced at Lu Huaijin out of the corner of her eyes, no words were needed at all, Lily immediately understood, and the two of them laughed at the same time.
Lu Huaijin noticed the sight and turned his head to look, but he didn't understand what was happening at all. The confused and confused expression made Lily and Song Lingyi smile even brighter.
Randy stretched out his chopsticks and rummaged through the red pot, accidentally touching the colander, and then Ronald immediately stared at Randy with round eyes.
Randy didn't need to look at each other at all to feel the burning gaze, his muscles couldn't help but stiffen, and he slowly raised his head to look at Ronald, his deep eyes projected motionlessly, like the Black Knight in "Star Wars". Randy immediately raised his hands to show his innocence.
After watching Randy's chopsticks leave the red cauldron, Ronald withdrew his gaze, ignored Randy, and continued to look down and focus on the red cauldron in front of him.
"It's okay, otherwise the meat will get old. Brandon's voice of reminder sounded next to him, and Ronald quickly took out the colander, put it in his bowl, dipped it in the sauce, couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and then couldn't wait to stuff the meat slice into his mouth.
Ronald lowered his eyes and tasted it carefully, but before he could chew it, the whole slice of meat had already been swallowed, and the tenderness of the meat and the aroma of the sauce stimulated it, so that the saliva was secreted in a big gulp, and he picked up a slice of meat and stuffed it into his mouth. One piece, one after another, it seemed that he couldn't stop at all, and by the time he reacted, the bowl was empty.
Ronald's eyes were once again on the white pot, he took out two slices of lettuce, put them in a bowl, rolled a large mouthful of sauce, stuffed it into his mouth in one go, and couldn't help but sigh in his throat, "Hmm!"
Raising his eyes, Ronald saw Lu Li standing diagonally opposite, he realized that his gobbling had been seen, which made him a little embarrassed, but it was only for a moment, he regained his composure - the so-called calm refers to admitting his mistakes, not referring to the calmness of emotions, he is still extremely excited at the moment, to be precise, even more excited than just now.
"Fourteen, what the hell is going on?" Ronald looked carefully at the sauce in his hand, and then looked at the red pot and white pot in front of him, "This is not at all the same as the hot pot I ate before." The smell is so strange that I don't know how to describe it......" Ronald thought hard for a moment, "To be honest, the character of this thing is not so obvious, at least not as distinct as boiled live fish, but ...... But ......"
The boiled live fish is prepared by hand, and the hot pot in front of you is made with frozen hot pot ingredients. A truly top-notch hot pot, also handmade.
"But it's unique. That's the only thing Ronald could ever think of, "Actually, I don't like it, I still don't like it, the red pot is too spicy for me, and it's too numb, and it even tastes a little weird." But, I can't stop, I can't stop at all. ”
"All I can tell you is that this is America, and the Chinese food you eat is all improved. Admittedly, our appetites vary greatly and must be modified before you can adapt. It's like a lot of Western cuisine has to be improved after it comes to China. Lu Li finally had time to explain to Ronald at this time.
Lu Li looked at Ronald who was sweating profusely in front of him, and couldn't help laughing, there is nothing happier than his Amway winning the praise of his friends, "However, among the many improved dishes, hot pot is the only one that fails, or the one that cannot be improved." ”
Lu Li has tasted different styles of hot pot, but he must admit that the improved hot pot is not the original after all, and it is no longer a "hot pot" after all.
Ronald nodded as if he didn't understand, but his eyes flashed with excitement, "This is really different from the hot pot I have eaten before, completely different, it is basically two foods." When he spoke, the sweat fell down in large drops, the combination of midsummer and July and the hot pot was absolutely amazing, but Ronald didn't care at all, his attention was completely on the hot pot, "There is also the white pot, the white pot is really interesting, it doesn't taste special, but the lettuce is really delicious, why? Why is this happening?"
Ronald is a sincere person, he has something to say, he doesn't like it, but after realizing his mistake, he didn't continue to entangle, he admitted it happily, and expressed his true feelings in his heart - that is, his love for hot pot, even while speaking, his chopsticks still couldn't help but pick up the squid fillet and throw it into the red pot, and at the same time picked up a spinach and stuffed it into his mouth, like a hamster storing food.
Lu Li found that everyone looked at him, and it seemed that everyone was curious about the same question—the question that Ronald had just raised.
It's different from other dishes. Each dish has a certain way of cooking, and there are even secret sauces and the like, but the hot pot does not, it looks like a big pot, and then the food is thrown down to burn, if the red pot is still a little complicated, then the white pot is not so mysterious, this kind of cooking seems too simple, but the effect is so good that people are puzzled.
Lu Li smiled dumbly, turned his head to look at Li Huainan, and cast his gaze for help, he is not a professional chef, how can he answer such a professional question? "Uncle Li?"
Unexpectedly, Li Huainan just shrugged his shoulders with an innocent expression, "I just came here today to eat and drink, I haven't eaten hot pot for several years." The subtext is that he's not an expert either.
Liu Xiaoyan complained happily, "Your Uncle Li is an amateur, it's okay to cook home-cooked food, if you want to buy a banquet, he can't stand it." This made everyone else laugh.
Lu Li looked at Ronald again and spread his hands, "I guess, because it's hot pot, that's why." ”
Such a simple and crude answer caused everyone to laugh, but Justin nodded and thought carefully, "I think it makes sense." ”
Then Finley chimed in, "yes, is there a better explanation than that?" like the dishes Fourteen had made before. ”
"Who cares? Tony said loudly, immediately put his chopsticks into the red pot, picked up two large slices of cabbage, stuffed them into his mouth and took a big bite, and then bared his teeth and grinned, "Whew, sheath, spicy, spicy......" while shouting "spicy", but the action couldn't stop at all.
"Yes, yes, that's all that matters!" Randy replied, "Come on, I'll eat a piece of beef first, as a respect." With that, Randy reached into the red pot, found a piece of mutton, and threw it in his mouth, only to Chloe to cry out, "Hey, that's mine!
Once again, everyone began to be lively, looking for their favorite food, chattering and bustling to scramble.
"Fourteen, can tofu be scalded?" After letting go of Chen Jian, Ronald once again transformed into a curious baby, and became interested in every ingredient prepared by Lu Li.
In the past two years, the health trend has risen, and soy products have received more and more attention. Originally, Americans almost didn't eat tofu, but with the popularity of Japanese and Chinese/Chinese cuisine, people are gradually becoming familiar with tofu. Here, though, they tend to fry the tofu and rarely put it in the soup.
There was only a small plate of tofu in front of Lu Li, the size of a palm, and there were only seven or eight pieces before and after, which were incomparably precious ingredients brought by Li Huainan.
"Absolutely. Lu Li picked up a small piece of tofu and put it in the red pot, "This is one of my favorite hot pot ingredients." "Of course, he doesn't force things like hairy belly, yuba, taro, etc., and don't be too greedy in a foreign country.
"You can taste it. This is not Japanese tofu, the texture is more solid, and the flavor of the hot pot is easier to penetrate. Lu Li looked at the bubbling hot pot in front of him, and was satisfied for a while.
"Also, there are turnip slices, can you eat radishes?" "What about that? What is that?" "You say, after the kale is blanched, it tastes just as good?" "I want to try it!" "I want to try it with chili sauce?" "What does it feel like to add minced green onions?" "I just tried soy sauce, this is the first time I've tried soy sauce outside of sushi, and it's really good!" "Hey, hey, the beef is running out!" ......
The sound of everyone's discussion was lively again, everyone stood at the table in groups, no one sat down, to be precise, there was no space for everyone to sit down, but no one cared, standing up excitedly, walking around at any time, reaching for their favorite ingredients for the first time, or going to the side to change the dipping sauce, the scene was very happy.
Originally, Lu Li was still worried, there were really too many ingredients prepared today - thanks to the fresh vegetables that had just been harvested, it looked like they were inexhaustible, but it turned out that he was thinking too much, the combat effectiveness of this group of people was simply off the charts, from more than seven o'clock to half past ten, that big pot of beef bone soup was almost two-thirds gone, it was terrible!
It's like when you go to the cafeteria, you always feel like you're losing if you don't eat enough, obviously your stomach is full, but your mouth is not full, and you continue to eat one after another, and you can't put down your chopsticks at all. Lu Li couldn't help but joke, "After tonight, everyone's chopsticks are bullish in a straight line." ”
Halfway through eating, Lu Huaijin and Sean lost their guesses, and went to the kitchen to wash another round of vegetables, which can be regarded as feeding everyone. Looking at the two hot pots that had changed color, a satisfied emotion stirred in his chest.
"Fourteen, fourteen, you say, if this soup is mixed with rice, what will it taste like?"
“…… Uh, the taste of the soul?"
