"How?" Seeing that he closed his eyes and tasted it carefully, and was silent for a long time, Meng Shuangshuang couldn't help but ask.

Ning Xi smiled, took the money from Meng Shuangshuang, bought some of their sauce from the young widow next to Ito Taiyi, and then distributed all her cut sashimi to the onlookers for free.

Everyone has long seen these two Japanese people unpleasant, but the food is current, and they can't help but eat it, and now they see Ningxi's free sashimi, and they have rushed to grab it.

"Delicious!"

"It's delicious!"

"It's so much better than what this Japanese man makes!"

Everyone praised each other.

Ito Taiyi told the young man to clean up his things with a dark face, and Meng Shuangshuang said proudly: "What is this Mr. Taiyi, we in Ningxi will participate in a cooking competition in Guangzhou City recently, if you are not convinced, you can come to challenge at any time!" By the way, by the way, it's good to see the level of cooking skills of our Great Zhou Dynasty, lest you sit in the well and watch the sky like this all the time. ”

Ito snorted angrily and left with the young man without looking back.

Jun Qianyu looked at Ning Xi with a smile: "Wang Majie's "Luoyang Daughter's Trip"? Where did this come from, and how had I never heard of it? ”

Ning Xi said: "It's just that it looks like an unknown miscellaneous book, and the fifth master doesn't have to take it to heart." ”

The young man from the fishing family who brought them over sincerely admired: "Sister, you are really amazing. ”

Jun Shaofeng said: "This dipping sauce is very nastic, but I don't think it's delicious." ”

Ning Xi said: "The green mustard is a unique sauce in the Wa country, and we Central Plains people are not used to eating it, in fact, what I call 'Jin Yan Yuguan', in which 'Jin Yan', refers to another special sauce, which is the preferred sauce for our Central Plains people to eat sashimi." If the prince is interested, Ning Xi can go back to Fangcai's fisherman's house and find all the sauce to make you a copy. ”

"That's great." Meng Shuangshuang clapped his hands and smiled, "Then let's go back and do it quickly!" ”

Ning Xi asked, "I don't know if the fifth master is interested?" ”

Jun Qianyu nodded.

Ning Xi said: "Then this is the fourth dish I made for the fifth master." She still owed him ten dishes, and when she thought about it, she felt like a small mountain was weighing on her heart, and she didn't know when it would be finished.

Jun Qianyu was silent, and Ning Xi took him as a default.

Back at the fisherman's house, Ning Xi went to prepare the sauce first, this fisherman cooks for the guests all the year round, and all kinds of condiments are also prepared, and there is no white plum, Ning Xi asked the young man to go to the neighbor's house to find it, and he also found it.

This sauce is made by mashing garlic, ginger, orange, white plum, cooked corn, japonica rice and sauce together, and then adding vinegar to make the finished product golden yellow, worthy of the name of 'golden fish'.

Then I picked a fish, and after scraping the scales and disemboweling the abdomen, I picked up the fish meat and cut it into thin slices, this time the fish fillet was slightly thicker, and it tasted more soft and tender to eat.

Ning Xi brought out the cut fish fillets and the seasoned sauce, Jun Shaofeng tasted it, and praised again and again: "This is really delicious sashimi!" ”

The fisherman carefully observed the practice of Ningxi from beginning to end, and then practiced the skills of slicing fish, and after a few years, there was a famous "fish fillet sheet" on this beach, but anyone who passed by here, there was no one who did not come to taste the sashimi of "fish fillet sheet", but these are all later words.

After returning from the seaside fishing village, Jun Qianyu was probably busy with official business, so he never looked for Ningxi again, and the day of the rematch of the cooking competition came soon.

Ningxi still takes the road of great ingenuity, making white cut mutton, selecting the best leg of mutton, soaking it in white sauce, cutting it into thin slices, and serving it with two kinds of condiments, ginger and bean curd, the skin is crispy and the meat is tender, mellow and delicious.

Rong Daquan made a mutton pot, he did not waste time with nothing in the past ten days, but visited everywhere to understand the local eating habits, due to the hot and humid weather in Guangzhou, so the diet is clear and moist, the locals think that eating mutton will be hot, so they are used to cooking with some moist ingredients.

In the past few days, based on his observations, coupled with some casual guidance from Ning Xi, he tried to make this nourishing and moist mutton pot.

First, the mutton is roasted until the skin is golden red, and then boiled together with the local sweet bamboo cane until it is soft and smooth, and then it is simmered with radish, water chestnut, bamboo and garlic, and simmered over a slow fire, which is sweet, soft and delicious, and is very favored by the judges.

Obviously, since Rong Daquan followed Ning Xi, his horizons and thinking have broadened a lot, and now he can create original dishes.

As for the other contestants, Ning Xi is optimistic about Han Xiangfei and You Zhenniang.

Han Xiangfei made a special delicacy from the Western Regions, pocket mutton patty.

He directly removed the iron pot on the stove, replaced the firewood with charcoal, and then folded the large pieces of fresh mutton and pressed it tightly on a handful of iron chisels, and roasted them on the stove.

Then Han Xiangfei held a knife in his hand, cut off small pieces of meat crumbs on the roasted mutton, and to see that it was almost done, he sprinkled coriander and chopped green onions, and mixed well with his special seasoning.

The white flour cake is prepared in advance, an opening is cut from one end, opened into a pocket, and the mixed meat is stuffed into the noodle pocket, and it becomes a fresh and hot pocket mutton patty, which is fragrant and distinctive.

In fact, the white radish stewed mutton made by You Zhenniang is also very good, the white radish can bring out the sweetness of the mutton, and the two match is also very good, but it is a pity that the judges on the field were attracted by another local tyrant and fat man.

The reason why he is said to be a local tyrant is mainly because the materials he uses are too extravagant, there are dozens of sheep eyes, a sheep only has two eyes, and there is a pot of shabu sheep eyes here, I am afraid that dozens of precious lotus goats will have to be used.

Sheep eyes this thing Ning Xi has eaten in his previous life, and there is also a nice name, called Grape Sheep Spiegel, after cooking, it is like a big ball with filling, the outer layer is soft and tender, and there will be a unique taste of juice splashed all over the mouth after biting, and under chewing, you will feel that there is something similar to cartilage in it, and it is still very chewy.

In this round of the competition, a total of four chefs will be selected to participate in the finals, Ning Xi, Rong Daquan and Han Xiangfei are expected to be selected, and the last place remains, because the judges were attracted by this unique sheep eye, after some discussion, You Zhenniang missed the finals, and the fat man named Chen Dexiang entered the finals.

It's just that the time and topic of the final finals have not been announced for the time being, and they are only asked to go back and wait for news.

Since they didn't know the topic yet, naturally they didn't have anything to prepare, Ning Xi and Rong Daquan returned to their residences, and spent a few days of leisurely and happy days foraging for food, and then Jun Qianyu came to her again.

This time, he actually came to ask Ning Xi for help.

It turned out that Jun Qianyu came to Guangzhou this time, in addition to presiding over the cooking competition on the surface, he also had a secret mission, secretly investigating the case of Yu Qinglin, the prefect of Guangzhou, colluding with officials from the DPRK and China, and bending the law.

Since this matter involves important ministers in the DPRK and the central government, if he investigates it openly, he will definitely encounter a lot of resistance, so he plans to start with Yu Qinglin first, and after getting enough evidence, he will return to Beijing to take down all the officials involved in one fell swoop.

But this Yu Qinglin is an old fox, the official face is not leaky, if you check it from the surface, then it must be impossible to find out what the problem is, originally Jun Qianyu also placed people in his house to investigate secretly, but recently the old fox may have heard some rumors, the precautions are extremely strict, the chess pieces planted by the guide zhì cannot contact the people outside, and Jun Qianyu has not heard from that person for several days.

Ning Xi looked embarrassed: "I'm a weak woman, I'm afraid I can't help much!" In fact, she was very reluctant to get involved in such a thing.

Jun Qianyu said: "Yu Qinglin is sleek and thoughtful, but he has one of the biggest weaknesses, that is, he loves to eat, all the world's food, there is no one he is not interested in, over the years, all the chefs who are a little famous in Guangdong have been his guests." You've made a name for yourself in the cooking competition this time, and if that's not unexpected, he's probably going to send someone to invite you in the next two days. ”

Ning Xi didn't expect that participating in a cooking competition would cause trouble, is it really necessary to be low-key?

"Then I don't know what the fifth master wants Ningxi to do?"

"You just need to make a mark in the hidden place after entering the Yu Mansion, and naturally someone will come looking for you, you just need to help bring out what he gave you to me."

"Is this dangerous?" The last time the boat flower party happened, and now Ningxi still has palpitations.

"No, our people are very careful, you just need to be careful, and it should be fine."

Ning Xi lowered her head, bit her lip and didn't speak, to be honest, she really didn't want to help with this favor, she could get in the way of the other party's identity, and it was really difficult to say if she refused.

Jun Qianyu said: "This Yu Qinglin is an official who is not benevolent, if he can be brought down, it is really a good thing for the benefit of the people." ”

Ning Xi muttered in a low voice: "What does that have to do with me." "She is just a civilian, and it is not her turn to have such a big ambition as worrying about the country and the people.

"Then I promise you, as long as you do me this favor this time, I can promise to do three things for you in the future, how about it?" Jun Qian Yu said.

Ning Xi's heart moved: "Is anything okay?" ”

Jun Qianyu said: "As long as it's not a matter of hurting heaven and reason, killing people and setting fires, anything else is fine." ”

"Okay, it's done!" Ningxi is simply authentic.

Things were as Jun Qianyu expected, and not long after he left, someone sent by Lord Yu, the prefect of Guangzhou, came to the door.
