Chapter 276, West Lake Drunken Crispy Fish (II)

After being stunned, Xiao Nan subconsciously looked at the shopkeeper, and asked with a rather skeptical attitude: "Brother shopkeeper, are you sure you are talking about the West Lake drunken crispy fish, not the West Lake vinegar fish?" ”

"Big lady, West Lake vinegar fish is a special dish in Hangzhou, and West Lake drunken crispy fish is a unique signature dish of our "Lakeside People", as the signature guy of "Lakeside People", how could I even report the wrong name of the dish!" Seeing that he was questioned by Xiao Nan, the guy was immediately anxious, but when he saw that his face was straight, he defended his reputation with a righteous and stern face.

"Cough, cough, I didn't mean that, well, how to say it, I was so surprised, West Lake vinegar fish is a famous dish in Hangzhou City, everyone knows, and drunk fish is a specialty of Shaoxing, crispy fish is a specialty of Yongnian Guangfu, you suddenly came out of your mouth a mixed dish name of Yongnian Guangfu and Shaoxing, so I couldn't react for a while." Xiao Nan suddenly felt that his old face turned red, and he coughed lightly twice a little uncomfortably, and hurriedly explained.

"I see that the eldest lady is a treasure of various cuisines, and she must be a real gourmet, but a gourmet like you doesn't know the West Lake drunken crispy fish in our "Lakeside People", and a few guest officials must not be from Hangzhou?" The shopkeeper looked at Xiao Nan in some surprise when he heard this, and then moved his gaze to the other three, patrolling back and forth twice, and then said.

"No, we are from other places, and we just arrived in Hangzhou yesterday." Xiao Nan replied with a smile.

"No wonder, our West Lake drunken crispy fish is a new dish invented five years ago, when Chef Zhu was our head chef, once this dish was launched, it quickly became the first signature dish of our "Lakeside People", you try it, I promise you won't regret it." The shopkeeper looked suddenly enlightened, he heard that Xiao Nan and the others were not from Hangzhou, so naturally he would no longer be angry about Xiao Nan questioning him.

"Okay, the shopkeeper will give us a West Lake drunken crispy fish, in addition to the drunken crispy fish, and then ask for a dried bamboo shoots and duck pot, a Longjing shrimp, a stir-fried crispy lotus root slices, and a large amount of West Lake Ulva soup, by the way, how big is this West Lake drunken crispy fish?" Xiao Nan waved his hand when he heard this, and he looked arrogant.

"Oh, the eldest lady is really a connoisseur, what you order is our signature dish, this West Lake drunken crispy fish is made of about four catties of grass carp, in addition to the head and tail, there are about three catties, one is one, by the way, do you want this drunken crispy fish to be spicy or not?" The shopkeeper replied.

"Did you put peppercorns when the fish was marinated?" Xiao Nan asked.

"Let it go." The shopkeeper replied

"If you don't put peppercorns, the taste is a little wrong, don't be too peppery, put a little bit, neutralize the taste, get drunk and crispy first, not enough to add it, by the way, you said your chef's surname is Zhu?" Xiao Nan groaned slightly, and said, after finishing speaking, he was about to let the shop guy leave, and suddenly remembered what he said about Chef Zhu, and couldn't help but ask more.

"yes, but what's the problem?" The shopkeeper who was about to go out heard the footsteps and looked at Xiao Nan with a puzzled face.

"It's nothing, you go down." Xiao Nan shook his head with a smile, and didn't say much, Chef Zhu, this Chef Zhu can't be the Chef Zhu he knows, isn't this the Shouchun Mansion in Bianjing.

Although the shop guy was confused by Xiao Nan, but adhering to the customer's view that the customer is his own mother and father, the guest refused to say more, so he didn't ask more, and quickly brought a pot of good West Lake Longjing up, after going to Longjin, and after half a pillar of incense or so, the guy came up with a dark brown soup can, and the lid with small holes on the can was swishing and steaming outward, and along with these hot gases, it was a very good smell of soup that came into everyone's noses.

This is Hangzhou's famous soup dish - West Lake Ulva soup, the main ingredient of West Lake Ulva soup is West Lake Ulva and tofu, with the old chicken soup as the soup base, supplemented by some shredded chicken breast, as soon as the soup can is put on the table, Xiao Nan stood up and opened the lid, but saw that the milky white tofu and green Ulva were still rolling in the soup, and the oil in the soup had been skimmed clean.

She picked up a small soup bowl, filled a bowl for each person, and then picked up the bowl in front of her and took a sip, as soon as the soup entered her throat and her mouth was empty, she blurted out a praise: "The little brother in this shop didn't say a big word, the dishes in their store are really good, and I am now looking forward to the West Lake drunken crispy fish." "Fortunately, the guy in this store has already gone out, otherwise I would be afraid that I would have to reason with her again after listening to Xiao Nan's words, he is the signature guy of "Lakeside People", and he never talks big.

After Lin drank a bowl of soup, he felt that his whole body was warmed up, and he couldn't help but echo deeply: "It's really delicious, after we go back, we can also try it ourselves." ”

"I can't try it back, this lettuce is a specialty of the West Lake, and the soup should be fresh-based, I can't go back, but it's a drunken crispy fish, if there is really a shop brother described as delicious, we can study and study it, and strive to make it when you want to eat it when you go back." After Xiao Nan drank the soup in the dry bowl, he took it in passing.

A few people drank two bowls of soup, a little cushioned their stomachs, and the guy pushed the door in again, this time he was holding a casserole in his hand, and the lid on the casserole had not been removed, but as soon as he entered the door, the rich fish fragrance in the pot came to his face, and after he put the casserole on the table, Xiao Nan suddenly couldn't wait to speak: "This is your store's number one signature dish, West Lake drunken crispy fish." ”

"Yes, how does it taste for a few of you." The shopkeeper opened the lid of the pot and said at the same time.

Xiao Nan didn't talk nonsense, she picked up the chopsticks, took a piece of hot fish from the sand pot and tender on the outside, steaming fish, opened her mouth and took a bite, as soon as the fish meat entered the mouth, a fish umami mixed with a faint aroma of wine suddenly filled the whole mouth, this fish was probably pickled with Huadiao wine, and peppercorns were added when pickled, and the fishy smell was completely removed with the volatilization of the wine during the pickling process, leaving only the unique freshness of the fish and the hemp aroma mixed with pepper and wine, and when stewing, it was moderately spicy, and the taste was incredible.

"It's delicious, it's delicious, the fish is crispy and fresh, and there are good numb and spicy, it should be steamed first, and then put the steamed soup into the casserole with the fish, until the fish juice is completely absorbed by the fish, so it can be so delicious; The fish meat is smooth and delicious without the slightest fishy smell, the fish pieces are stewed so soft but not scattered, it should be made of half-dried fish, the wine that pickles it should be Huadiao, and the fish is marinated and dried for no more than seven days? Right? After a piece of fish meat was eaten, Xiao Nan half-squinted and savored it for a long time, and then opened his eyes and spoke to the shopkeeper who was still standing aside.

"Yes, yes, the lady is really a real gourmet, you can taste so many production details of this fish as soon as you eat it, if our chef Zhu sees you, he will definitely know it." The shopkeeper couldn't help but high-five and sigh when he heard this.

"Then why don't you bring Chef Zhu out to see it?" Xiao Nan blurted out. (To be continued.) )
