A plastic box lined with oilcloth serves as a table, baked tilapia is placed in a paper bowl, and the steaming potatoes peel off the charred skin and turn into a tempting delicacy, served with hot and sour dipping water for each person. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
A little salt at the bottom of the bowl and a few washed green and red peppers also become a delicacy on the table.
The water brought was also poured for the girls, and the male compatriots were beer and liquor.
The simple barbecue, which was made by Niu Dingtian and Liu Qing, actually took on a slight style and became petty bourgeoisie.
Everyone sat down around the bonfire in the greeting of Niu Dingtian, and Liu Qing and Niu Dingtian put the live roasted carp in front of the skullcap and placed it in front of everyone in turn.
"I'm here to show you how to eat live grilled carp." Niu Dingtian said with a smile, picked up his big kitchen knife, the tip of the knife gently picked up the charred shell of the carp, the blade of the knife twisted and turned, and the whole piece of the charred shell was picked up from the head to the tail.
Hold it with chopsticks and set it aside.
The charred and ugly scorched shell was flipped open by the dexterous chopsticks, revealing a piece of snow-white fish meat, and a tempting fragrance that made people move their fingers suddenly filled the audience.
"When you eat it, only eat fish, and don't touch the spiny back and ribs."
Niu Dingtian said, the kitchen knife in his hand deftly cut off a piece of palm-sized snow-white fish meat, sent it to the paper bowl in front of the skullcap, and said with a smile: "It can be dipped in water or sprinkled with salt grains." Try! ”
Skullcap seemed to be more interested in the sour and spicy taste of the dipping water, and said with a smile: "Just dip this one." ”
She lifted the chopsticks and took a small piece of crystal clear fish meat, dipped it in the water and put it in her mouth, and her big eyes behind the black frame immediately showed a satisfied surprise, and praised Niu Dingtian: "It tastes super good." ”
Skullcap happily greeted the sisters next to her: "Sister Peiling, Sister Xuanxuan, you can taste it, it tastes super good." ”
Niu Dingtian smiled: "It's good to eat it while it's hot." ”
Zhang Xiong's eyes were also hot: "Calf and calf, come and try it with me." ”
Brother Hui also had an eager expression.
Niu Dingtian and Liu Qing grilled carp on one side, and cut the fish meat and sent it to the guests' bowls: "Everyone eats it while it's hot, if it's cold, it won't taste good." ”
The first course of live grilled carp suddenly became the most popular delicacy on the simple table.
Liu Qing served the guests baked potatoes in a timely manner, and said with a smile: "The potatoes will taste good when dipped in the juice of the grilled fish, or refined salt, and the hot and sour dipping water." ”
In about half an hour, eight large carp of five or six kilograms, that is, seven or eight catties of potatoes that had just been baked, were also wiped out.
The temptation to taste is irresistible.
Zhang Xiong, Brother Hui and their group of big men certainly didn't fill their stomachs, and they all cast their hungry eyes like wolves on the grilled tilapia on the charcoal fire, there are a lot of them, they should be able to eat enough!
It's skullcap and a group of girls, after tasting live roasted carp, they also have a little more expectation for those tilapia who are usually disdainful.
The tilapia absorbs enough heat on the charcoal fire, and the meat is mixed with the aroma of green onions, and when the smell of the charcoal fire is added, the flavor emitted becomes a little spicy, but it is more mellow.
The chopsticks in Liu Qing's hand are very dexterous, clamping the fish head, and with a slight pick, the grilled fish falls into the prepared paper bowl.
Because tilapia is roasted over a charcoal fire, the skin is not charred black like a live roasted carp, but turns a striking golden brown after Liu Qing's precise control of the heat.
It's like frying it in a pan of oil.
Niu Dingtian immediately took the paper bowl handed by Liu Qing and distributed it to the guests: "Roasted tilapia is slightly different from roasted carp alive. ”
"It is not as tender and juicy as the carp grilled alive, but it is contaminated with the aroma of charcoal after charcoal grilling, and the delicate fibers and proteins of the fish are completely dried by the charcoal fire, becoming crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the taste is elastic when chewed."
"If you can eat spicy with millet spicy and refined salt, it will be a different experience. Of course, dipping it in sour and spicy water is also a good choice. ”
Niu Dingtian was explaining like those chefs on TV, but Liu Qing was busy in the back.
In a large pot, fill enough water, chop the shallots, flatten a few pieces of ginger, grab a handful of peppercorns, and put them together for later use.
Zhang Xiong didn't care about listening to Niu Dingtian's full of explanations, it was really good to eat it in his mouth, and he lowered his head and held the paper bowl to eat.
Brother Hui, they are the same.
Men, eating is always not as gentle as girls.
More than a dozen people let go to eat, the scene, the speed, the eating appearance, that called a fragrant, even the skullcap on the opposite side, these girls, also put down their reserves, their hands are hands, and chopsticks are chopsticks.
The tilapia prepared by the campfire is once again roasted over a charcoal fire.
Zhang Xiong found that Niu Dingtian and Liu Qing didn't seem to have eaten a bite, Zhang Xiong looked at Niu Dingtian who was grilling fish by the fire embarrassedly: "Little calf, don't be busy yet, you can also eat some." Excuse me......"
"What's the trouble with this." Niu Dingtian raised his head and smiled: "Brother Zhang, you paid me to be a guide, just to talk about the reservoir, talk about the fish, take you to see the scenery and go back, I'm afraid you will scold me in your stomach." ”
Niu Dingtian smiled at Zhang Xiong and said, "It's a lot of tips for doing well!" ”
Zhang Xiong laughed, glanced at Brother Hui next to him, and said to Niu Dingtian: "This time I am bold enough to invite you." I won't dare next time. The guide with a bodyguard is scared to death just thinking about it. ”
Zhang Xiong's words are not unreasonable, he will say this, which can be regarded as solving the doubts in the hearts of himself and Skullcap.
Brother Hui's face didn't change much.
Niu Dingtian was even more cheeky, and looked back at Brother Hui and the few Nie family members, and he smiled: "You said Brother Hui and them?" They're not bodyguards. ”
Zhang Xiong shrugged his shoulders and stopped talking, bowing his head to eat the fish. Anyway, he just threw the question out.
He didn't ask, but the eyes of the skullcap and the girls over there made Niu Dingtian a little overwhelmed, Brother Hui and they were nervous about Niu Dingtian's situation before, it was not something that ordinary friendship can have.
No one is blind.
Niu Dingtian is an honest person, he doesn't want his friends to have any misunderstanding about him, so he can only say with a dry smile: "Actually, Brother Hui and I are really just friends, my restaurant is going to be operated in a different location, and the place I happened to see was Brother Hui's family's property." It's still talking, so you get the idea. ”
Skullcap was a little surprised, she could hear the sincerity in Niu Dingtian's dry words, but she could hear the words and meanings used by Niu Dingtian.
If the restaurant wants to change the place to operate, it is generally to expand the scale, to be honest, the food cooked by Niu Dingtian is indeed of some standard, but it is not top-notch.
But in their four cities, it should be about the same.
And the word industry seems a little out of place, ordinary people start a business and work hard to earn their own share, more or less, most of them can only be said to be family business.
Industry, in the cognition of skullcap, is definitely not the same thing as family business, the same meaning.
This also piqued her interest.
And let the skullcap forget the sentence that curiosity kills cats.
After the skullcap's black glasses, he flashed a sly and sly asked Niu Dingtian, "Calf guide, how big is your restaurant?" Can you find someone else's property to move to? ”
At this time, Niu Dingtian hadn't reacted to what Skullcap meant, but he smiled: "Small shop, small shop, small restaurant that can set more than 20 tables." ”
Brother Hui over there looked up and smiled at the skullcap.
