Chapter 55: New Year's French Dinner

The Spring Festival is coming unconsciously in the hustle and bustle of people. At this time, everyone will put down their work and have a good reunion with their families. To continue family affection, to repay kindness, to show filial piety, this is the traditional concept and unique cultural relationship of the Chinese.

It is rare for people to gather so much on Chinese New Year's Eve this year, so Ruan's father and the two families of Yì Meng and Ruan went to Ruan's hotel to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. The tall chef of the Ruan family cooks a table of authentic French cuisine, which is absolutely original!

At first, Old Man Meng did not agree, he said: "Chinese celebrate the Spring Festival, but what French food to eat, is not the same." "I can't stand the soft grinding and persuasion of these juniors, and the old man who opposes the ineffectiveness has to compromise.

Early in the morning, Gao Yi and Ruan Yanru went to the vegetable market to buy ingredients. French cuisine pays special attention to the freshness and selection of ingredients, and "inferior ingredients make no good dishes" is a famous saying in French cuisine. French cuisine is true to the original taste and admires nature, and how to prepare the best sauce for food is a test of the chef's skill.

The dishes selected for the first year of high school this time have been simplified into seven dishes, leaving aside the cumbersome thirteen dishes on the traditional French menu: the first course, the cold appetizer is the cold appetizer; second, delicious soup; the third course, side dishes; Fourth, the hot starter is the main dish; fifth, vegetable salad or dessert; Sixth, sweetened coffee or tea; The seventh and final course, the fruit.

And most importantly, don't forget to pair your food with wine. Moreover, the corresponding dishes must be paired with the corresponding wine, which is perfect.

Ruan Yanru looked at today's menu and couldn't help but smack her tongue, it seems that the pairing of every dish and drink in French food is simply an "art"! This made them who had never eaten Western food a big eye-opener.

Let's sad and urge Ruan Jingshu, a little laborer, to go with us to buy ingredients. But under the gaze of her sister Ruan Yanru like a searchlight, she immediately dispelled her thoughts. Thinking about it, such a good opportunity to be alone, she was stunned to insert a foot in the middle, what is going on!

Just when she secretly regretted that she didn't go to the vegetable market to choose ingredients together, Meng Kexin dragged her into Meng's house. Niu'er, you're too tough, aren't you? If you have something to say, let's talk about it, why do you always provincial procedures? Meng Kexin's sudden brainless move made her inexplicable.

"Say, are you hiding something from me?" Miss Meng stared at Ruan Jingshu with a stern expression, as if she could see a flower on her face.

"Huh? Not...... No, who are you listening to nonsense, can I hide it from you? Ruan Jingshu suddenly felt cold when she heard this, but her mouth was a dead duck with a hard mouth, and she refused to admit it.

"You're not telling you the truth, are you?" Meng Kexin spread out the palm behind his back, revealing the medicinal cloth in his palm: "Look at what this is?" ”

Ruan Jingshu looked at it, terrible! It was the first time that Meng Wenyu was replaced in Xiao Keming's room, and it was also the bloodiest piece. Why did she carelessly fall into Xiao Keming's room? The strong evidence is here, even if she wants to deny it, she can't get past it! Yes, she still confessed, this was all Meng Wenyu's idea, she was an accomplice at best!

Thinking about her, she is really aggrieved, especially wanting to be cold in front of Meng Wenyu, but every time she is stupid and echoes him, do you think she is really sad enough?

Afraid that Meng Kexin would not believe it, Ruan Jingshu also deliberately took out the note she signed with Meng Wenyu and let her see it. (Look, she's still prescient and keeps a hand for herself, hehe.) )

At this time, Meng Kexin's gloomy face finally improved, but she still gave Ruan Jingshu a roll of her eyes with some disgust, and said, "What's the next time you can't hide it from me anymore, heard-to-no-have?" The last four words were said especially loudly, which shocked Ruan Jingshu's ears and made her ears tingle.

"Okay, okay, okay, I know, what do you eat without three meals a day, and the number of times you need to eat a day?" Ruan Jingshu looked at Meng Kexin with a wicked smile, and was fried by Miss Meng's fried corn, ha~~ Take it upon yourself!

The sisters laughed for a while, and seeing that the time was still some time before noon, they decided to go out for a walk first. At this time, Meng Wenyu walked out of the room, only glanced at them lightly, and said, "Xiao Xin, I'll go out to buy some things, let's go together, I don't know the way to Uncle Ruan's hotel." ”

Meng Kexin grabbed Ruan Jingshu, who was about to slip away, and asked Meng Wenyu with concern: "Brother Wenyu, are your injuries okay?" ”

Meng Wenyu's sharp gaze instantly turned to Ruan Jingshu, quite blamed, and Ruan Meizi shook her head at him vigorously to show her innocence. But Meng Wenyu didn't pay attention to her at all, but took the lead in walking out of the door.

A group of three rode two bikes. Because Meng Kexin's cycling skills were not strong, Ruan Jingshu had no choice but to work as a coolie to carry Meng Wenyu again. Oh, you dare to block the gun, but this time you pretend to be weak, let you pretend, let you pretend.

Ruan Jingshu vented all the resentment in her heart on the bicycle, and she could still ride fast with the tall Meng Wenyu, you can imagine her mood at this time, right? ! Xiao Nizi was riding to the fullest, but suddenly there was a strong arm on her waist, which shocked her with a sudden brake, "Squeak~~~".

Meng Wenyu was able to stabilize his figure, looked at this startled little girl helplessly, and said, "Can you ride steadily?" You have two wheels, don't you compare it to four wheels? ”

Ruan Jingshu retorted infinitely aggrieved in her heart: It's not your fault, who asked you to suddenly hug your arm, can she not be frightened? Ruan Jingshu, who didn't respond again, resigned herself to carrying Meng Wenyu to buy gifts.

When they arrived at the hotel, everyone was already seated around the table, just waiting for the three of them! Meng Wenyu walked in and hurriedly handed the purchased gift to Ruan's father: "I hope my uncle will accept the small gift." ”

Ruan's father kept refusing at first, but the younger generation's intentions were not good and he kept refusing, so he had to accept it happily. As soon as Gao saw that everyone had arrived, he announced that he would start cooking. Xiao Keming's expression was the richest, and he stared at the kitchen expectantly for a while; After a while, he lowered his head and carefully studied the knives, forks and forks on the table, well, the spirit is commendable, and if you don't understand it, you have to understand it.

Finally, the first dish was made - foie gras, the three treasures of French cuisine: truffle, foie gras and caviar; the second, pickled meat and vegetable soup; The third side dish is Saint-Jacques scallops; For the fourth main course, we chose steak tartare; the fifth dessert, a soufflé cheese and vegetable salad; Sixth, sweet coffee and tea are prepared; The seventh and final course is a fruit platter.

Old man Meng was not used to using knives and forks, so he was replaced with chopsticks and spoons by the careful high one. Because everyone is familiar with each other, they are not so restrained, and they don't care if the posture of holding the knife and fork is incorrect, and their minds are all focused on the exquisite dishes.

French cuisine is the only cuisine in the world that can be compared with Chinese cuisine, and its attention to food is comparable to that of China, and even its atmosphere when eating is better than that of Chinese. Okay, don't talk nonsense~~ Open-eat.
