Lu Li looked at everyone who was hesitant and couldn't help laughing, "Please, guys, you won't dare to eat, right?"

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone immediately became in an uproar, and many people shouted, "Isn't it just a dish, why don't you dare", "I've seen Mexican food more exaggerated than this, and there is absolutely no problem", "It's trivial, I think it just looks scary...... But having said that, everyone stood in place, looking at each other, and no one dared to take the initiative to step forward at all. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Randy squeezed to the front, staring at the pot of boiled live fish. To be honest, among all the dishes tonight, he was most curious about this dish, but now looking at the bright red peppers and fiery soup, he kept swallowing his saliva, but he didn't dare to try it easily.

Even if the agitation method was used, they still seemed cautious, and Lu Li was a little disappointed. He originally thought that this dish could open everyone's eyes and really let everyone understand the breadth and profundity of Chinese cuisine, although Sichuan cuisine originated from SC, it has now been carried forward, and it is also one of Lu Li's favorites, and different regional cuisines will have different characteristics, which is also an important part of Chinese culture. But, now it seems, he took it for granted.

What's more, Americans don't like to eat fish and resist eating fish, which is in their bones. Even though the last all-fish feast was an eye-opener for the four cowboys, they didn't have the urge to try it when they saw the fish again. It's a habit of life, it's also a cultural habit, and it's obviously not so easy to change.

Suddenly, Li Huainan's hearty laughter came, "This dish looks authentic enough, it seems that you have put a lot of effort into it." ”

With the personality of Chinese/Chinese people, even if Li Huainan is greedy and expectant, he will not come out and be the first to taste. But tonight's situation was a little different, seeing that everyone didn't dare to try it easily, he took the initiative to step forward and relieve Lu Li, "I've been in the United States for so many years, I've long forgotten what it's like, and you're a young man who likes to tinker, come, let me taste if this is the taste of home." ”

Li Huainan stepped forward, poked into the red and glamorous soup with a fork, stirred it, and then fished out two pieces of tender and fatty fish fillets, as well as cucumbers, yuba and soybean sprouts, he took some with a plate, and the steaming smoke began to bubble out, and the tempting aroma suddenly became strong, and the smell of all the chili oil just now made people appetizing.

Li Huainan picked a piece of fish fillet and stuffed it into his mouth, and his eyebrows couldn't help but pick it up lightly and chew it carefully.

After waiting for a while, Li Huainan was still chewing, and Randy couldn't help it, "Dude, what does it taste like?"

Li Huainan stopped Randy's questioning, picked up another piece of cucumber, and tasted it again, "The heat is just right, the fish is very tender, just enough to taste, but not too old." Your skills are really good, do you want to come to Uncle Li's shop to help?" Li Huainan said in English, everyone's eyes widened, "It's a pity that the pepper is still a little less, and the hemp flavor is not so strong......; In the end, Li Huainan didn't continue to explain, shook his head and stuffed the remaining cucumbers into his mouth, with an expression of enjoyment, and slowly tasted it.

A person in the crowd walked out, it was Justin, Lu Li didn't have time to greet him tonight, Justin just nodded to Lu Li, and then walked to the big pot of boiled live fish, and filled three spoonfuls into his plate with a soup spoon, looking like he was going to be the first person to eat crabs.

Li Huainan is Chinese, his performance is very convincing, but still lacks a little motivation; after Justin came out, everyone's eyes fell on his shoulders, expecting him to give a "Texan's answer".

"Wait, wait. Lu Li only stopped Justin and picked up the chopsticks, "Although I'm sure that this dish will definitely not disappoint you, don't eat the chili peppers." ”

The red peppers are mixed with fish and cucumbers, and it looks like Justin is going to eat them all in one go.

Lu Li picked out all the chili peppers, and then explained again, "Don't drink the soup, even I can't resist it." "Not only is the soup rich, but it's also drizzled with chili oil, so it's best not to try it lightly.

Justin looked at Lu Li, revealing a tragic look, as if he was heroic and righteous, which made Lu Li laugh, and then Justin stabbed a piece of fish meat with a fork, closed his eyes, and stuffed it into his mouth regardless of it, Lu Li could even hear Lily's gasping voice, Lu Li couldn't help laughing and turned around, "Lily, don't worry, the beer is next to him, he will be fine." ”

Lily was teased by this, and couldn't help but pat Lu Li's arm and laughed.

Justin chewed with his eyes closed, and barely chewed much in the first bite, so he swallowed it directly, fortunately this is a grass carp, and the fish bones are not very big, otherwise it hurts to see Lu Li.

After swallowing, Justin suddenly opened his eyes, and hurriedly picked up the second piece of fish meat and put it in his mouth, "Justin, Justin?" At this moment, Sean couldn't hold it anymore next to him, and opened his mouth to call, Jessica and Randy also stretched their necks, but Justin made a stop gesture and chewed seriously-the first bite was not tasted just now, it was completely swallowed raw, and now it is taste.

After eating, Justin nodded lightly and said two words, "Delicious." ”

Naturally, everyone was not satisfied with such a simple answer, and Jessica asked in a loud voice, "What does it smell like?"

Justin shrugged, "You'll know if you taste it." Causing everyone to spit on with disdain, he could only helplessly explain, "It's indeed chili, but it's not as scary as it looks, and the fish is delicious and tastes ...... In particular, it is different from the fried fish I used to eat. Although it is said, fish bones are still troublesome. ”

"You should try the whole fish feast made by Fourteen. Randy chimed in.

Justin ignored it and continued, "It feels strong enough that I want a beer right now." His language was so pale that he didn't say anything, but he stepped forward, slapped two more spoonfuls into his plate, and then stepped aside with a bottle of beer, which was the best answer.

"I'm coming, I'm coming!" Randy was the first to rush forward, immediately wanting to try, but he didn't want to, but he still slowed Cole by half a beat, "I'll come!" Cole took the soup spoon, "I'll take all the peppers off first, otherwise the visual impact will be too strong." "No one will eat these peppers anyway.

After Cole cleaned up all the peppers, the pot of boiled live fish suddenly looked much cuter, and everyone gathered together, although it was still red and gorgeous, but now it was no longer a "can't try" contraband, Cole slapped a spoonful to Randy, Randy was still that impatient, and he couldn't wait to start eating it before he even walked away.

"Oh, ah, oops!" Randy's vivid onomatopoeia kept on and on, and Jessica couldn't stand it anymore, "Randy, shut up, no one wants to hear your screams/beds!" Everyone laughed, but Randy went his own way, "It's delicious, it's delicious." "Fourteen, can you eat this little black seed?"

"No, don't eat. Lu Li turned around, and before the words could fall, he heard Randy's "baba" spitting, and Lu Li couldn't help but laugh dumbly, "That's peppercorns, no one will eat peppercorns." ”

"I thought it was poppy seeds. Randy's whole face wrinkled, "Hemp, oops, hemp!" picked up the peach juice next to him, and poured it down, but the peach juice was too light and not spicy at all, Lu Li handed over a bottle of beer, Randy raised his head and poured it down, and drank most of the bottle in one go, which was considered satisfied, "Whew, this thing is really exciting." ”

As he spoke, Randy sweated and exhaled, "I didn't feel anything when I ate it just now, why does it get spicier and spicier the more I eat it." Whew, whew, it's really spicy. He took another big sip of beer, "But it's really cool! What is this dish called?"

The Texan diet is actually quite monotonous, still based on beef, potatoes and corn, and although there are a large number of Mexicans and Indians, there is not much exchange of food cultures. In fact, Mexican food is the most popular in Florida, and in big cities like Los Angeles and New York, burritos are like burgers — stripped of their specialties and modified into American flavors, but without their original flavor.

But the Texans still have a very heavy taste in food, the simplest is salt, their food is salty, and it doesn't cost money to sprinkle salt; the fresh smell of the river and the taste of the fish that they dislike have disappeared into the heavy taste, except for the fish bones, this dish is a match made in heaven for them!

"Fourteen, what the hell is this?" Ronald asked earnestly, with an intoxicated expression.

"Fourteen, if you throw the dumplings in, they will taste better with the soup!" Sean held up his plate, filled a plate of dumplings, and gave his thumbs up.

Jessica walked over, "Look, I told you, Fourteen is a magical guy. ”

"Aren't all Chinese magical guys?" Sean replied, provoking everyone around him to agree.

Lu Li responded with a smile, then withdrew his gaze and looked at Ronald, "This is a fish, a grass carp." "And then that one is a cucumber, that one is a sprout, and that one is a ...... Well, I don't know how to explain this, you can understand that it is a soy product made from mung beans. Lu Li was stunned, the yuba is made of mung beans, right?

"You tell me this is a grass carp?" Ronald had a disgusted expression, he didn't attend the whole fish banquet last time, so he naturally didn't understand. There is a scarcity of ways to cook fish in North America, which is basically fried and fried fish, and they are not even willing to try to make thick soups with fish like Spanish or French cuisine. So, they have a natural aversion to fish – beef is the first choice.

"Yes. Lu Li nodded in the affirmative, "Randy fished it from the lake today." ”

"It's me, it's me!" Randy raised his right hand in the air, "So, I also have credit for this dish!"

Lu Li smiled and patted Randy on the back, "Yes, you have the most credit!" Then, Lu Li raised his voice and said, "Another dish is also ready, I think, it goes well with this fish, I'll serve it out now." ”

It should be good to grasp the mutton by hand, but the encounter between the fish and the sheep, is this considered "fresh"?
