"Is the seafood in the steamer steaming?" Ye Lin pointed to the bamboo slivers in front of him that had just been added to the firewood and said.

"The shrimp girl, bamboo clams, blue crabs, and nine shrimp have all been laid out layer by layer in the order you said." Yang Qingyan was directing his apprentices to move out the wine jar that was refrigerated in the ice cellar, the huge wine jar was the same height as a person, and it took five or six people to work together to move it out.

There was an open space in the middle of the back kitchen, which was specially used to house her special six-story steamer.

The top layer is placed with onions, ginger, garlic, peppercorns and other spices in proportion to the configuration of high-heat fried seasoning, with a thin layer of gauze tied into a ball, below in turn a variety of seasonal seafood, the bottom layer is deliberately used to use seasonal fresh japonica rice soaked in hanging for a few days ham scallop broth, the amount should not be too much. Add an appropriate amount of spring water.

When the temperature in the steamer gradually rises, the boiling soup evaporates the surging water vapor, which rushes to the top of the bag, carrying the strong and fragrant flavor of the ingredients, and steames into the layers of seafood below, and the rising water vapor steam the fresh seafood little by little.

The juicy seafood eats through the fresh aroma of steam, and the saturated delicious water flows down the steamer, and collects the moist and plump japonica rice at the bottom of the pot, and boils a pot of fragrant and viscous porridge soup under steaming.

After eating enough of the fragrance of the ingredients and the sweetness of the seafood, the porridge soup can be fresh and crispy at the entrance, and the steamed seafood on the upper layer not only retains the sweetness of the seafood, but also integrates the salty fragrance of the ingredients, and the entrance is tender and juicy.

Ye Lin calculated the time and put down the seafood steamer. helped the waiters carry the large jar of blue and white brew together and walked to the crowded lobby of Songyue Building.

"Mr. Guo, I really didn't expect to meet you here, don't come unharmed." Mr. Liu is the president of the J Province Gastronomy Association. When I bumped into Mr. Guo head-on, I was startled. Guo Lao is a leading figure in the food industry, and his ability to evaluate food is very superb, but his personality is withdrawn and eccentric, and his tongue is not good, even when Yang Guanzhong was still in charge, he was not less affected by his poisonous tongue.

Now the chef of the town store is gone. The formation of Songyue Tower is also not as good as before, but he never expected that it would be such a restaurant, and Mr. Guo would buy it. In the past, those big-name restaurants wanted to invite him to attend, but they didn't eat a lot of closed doors.

"Xiao Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you've gained a lot of weight." Mr. Guo turned his head to see him, and saw his previous figure that was neither fat nor thin. Now it's like blowing up a balloon. The whole person gained more than twenty pounds, and couldn't help but ask.

Mr. Liu listened to this, a little embarrassed to touch his hair, he also knew that he had gained a lot of weight, since he was pulled by his friends to Songyue Tower to eat a meal, since then he has been out of control, almost every day to pull friends or his wife to Songyue Tower to have a feast, the flavorful snowflake beef and the delicious Buddha jumping over the wall is simply difficult to give up. After a few big dishes, it is inevitable to order some desserts. Sugar steamed cheese hand-ground bean curd and then eat, not fat is a miracle.

"I don't know where Songyuelou dug up a chef, that craft, I really didn't say it, even when Yang Lao was here, the things he made were still incomparable to now." Seeing Mr. Liu like this, Mr. Wang next to him understood the reason in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh.

Guo Lao actually just saw that Yang Guanzhong had been friends with him for many years, and came to cheer for his daughter, but he actually didn't have much hope for the taste of Songyue Tower.

He was a little surprised when he heard what Wang Lao said, he and Wang Lao had known each other for a long time, and knew that Wang Lao's taste was not better than him, so he glared at Wang Lao fiercely and said, "Don't fool me, an old man." ”

Wang Lao was about to speak, but his attention was suddenly attracted by a rich aroma of wine.

As soon as the big jar of wine landed, Ye Lin took a ladder and put it on it, and the cold air brought out from the ice cellar around the wine tank rushed towards her in waves, smelling the fragrance of wine, and the whole person was a little excited.

Ye Lin held a small hammer in his hand, knocked a few times to slap open the hard mud seal at the mouth of the altar, untied the tightly tied rope, lifted the silk cloth on it, and in an instant, a fragrant smell of wine rushed out of the altar and spread out wantonly in all directions.

The rich aroma of wine spread out substantially, and the guests who were originally greeting each other in full swing were not a little guarded, and they were invaded by the smell, and the entire Songyue Tower suddenly fell silent.

Ye Lin gently swept around the guests who had attracted their attention, and when he saw the intoxicated expressions on their faces, he breathed a sigh of relief and raised his voice to greet: "I'm sorry to wait for a long time, this is the wine specially brewed by my Yang family, and I specially took it out to entertain you today, and my Yang family is fortunate to invite you to cheer, it's really an honor." ”

As he spoke, he took the scoop handed by Su Xiaoxiao, scooped out a scoop from the clear liquor, and the clear wine faintly flowed with a purple cold light, accompanied by an increasingly intense aroma.

"I, Yang Yelin, drink here first as a respect, please wait a while for the meal, you may wish to have a few glasses first, the wine is not strong, it doesn't hurt to drink more."

After saying that, he got down the escalator and turned to beckon the kitchen to serve food.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the huge wine jar almost intoxicated, Ye Lin opened the jar in advance before, the taste of the wine is still not hot, now the time is enough, the clear aroma of the blue and white brewing is like a little hand hooking his taste buds, but now he can't drink it quickly, and he has to beckon the waiter to pour wine for the guests one by one.

The guests who had been self-conscious now seemed to have completely abandoned the shelves of the rich, and each one more diligently begged the waiter to pour them some wine first, looking hungrier and thirstier than the cooks who could only watch dryly.

Even a woman who never drinks alcohol has a hard time resisting the scent. The manager arranged for the waiter to use that delicate porcelain bottle to pour wine for the guests, which Ye Lin had done by the way when he was looking for someone to burn the wine bottle last time, and the waitress held the slender wine bottle in her white hand and slowly poured the thick wine into the blue and white porcelain cup, and the clear wine glowed a little purple in the bright light, which looked incredibly beautiful.

Impatient guests finally waited until the wine was poured, the monkey hurriedly brought the wine glass to the lips, the cool liquor poured into the mouthpiece, the top note is faintly sweet, swallowed into the stomach accompanied by a brief dizziness, the freshness of the green plum and the sweetness of the winter plum want to match, drink into the stomach, people feel unprecedented comfort.

Each table was served with a jug of wine, which was not small enough to serve a table of guests, but it was quickly exhausted in their scramble, and the hosts had to scoop wine from the jar again and again, and the jar of more than a meter was empty in a few moments. (To be continued.) )
