Water Seat Garden, 2nd floor. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
This is a very chic small private room, its area is not large, about ten square meters, the dining table is also positioned to two people, the decoration is very exquisite, quite a couple of private room feeling.
Wang Ming sat on a chair next to the table, the leather chair was soft and comfortable, and the view outside the window was also very charming.
After arranging Wang Ming in this private room like a lover's room, Shangguan Jing'er went to the kitchen on the first floor, and the meal between the two was arranged by Shangguan Jing'er herself.
Wang Ming waited silently, calculating the time he would stay in Luoyang, Henan, and at the same time, he was also thinking about the third stop of the food journey.
It has been ten days since I came to Luoyang, but it is not for nothing, in these ten days, I have learned too much about Henan's food culture and characteristics, and most importantly, Wang Ming also has some understanding of the process of Luoyang water mat and some insiders who know the doorway.
The waiting time always seems a little long, although it is only more than twenty minutes, but Wang Ming still feels that a long time has passed, when Shangguan Jing'er personally put the two side dishes on the table first, Wang Ming only felt that his stomach was a little growling.
Boiled peanuts mixed with snow mushrooms, shredded onions mixed with black fungus, the two cold dishes are very simple and homely, but they are very finely cooked.
"Come, let's start with two small dishes to start an appetizer, and then I will invite you to eat something different, to make sure you haven't eaten it before." Shangguan Jing'er said with a smile, and as her voice fell, Wang Ming's eyebrows raised slightly, and then he was a little interested, and climbed up to that angular face.
"So confident?" Wang Ming chuckled and said, while Shangguan Jing'er nodded confidently, although the dishes she prepared were extremely common here, they were extremely rare in other provinces, even if they were local to Luoyang, there were not many of them sold outside now.
"That's nature, how can a guy like you who is passionate about cooking get into your eyes if he doesn't come up with something special?" Shangguan Jing'er said with a smile, the mystery in her words broke into a strong one, and as her voice fell, Wang Ming nodded expectantly, and then, stretched out her chopsticks and picked up a mouthful of peanuts wrapped in snow ferns, and put them in her mouth.
As an appetizer, the boiled peanut spice taste is just right, the peanuts must be soaked in water before boiling, and after entering the soup, the flame is turned off when it is opened, otherwise it is easy to make noodles, affecting the overall taste, and it cannot reach the degree of crispness, and the boiled peanuts in front of it are obviously controlled just right, the crisp peanuts are fresh and delicious, mixed with the crisp and tender snow ferns, neutralizing each other, and the appetizing effect of this cold dish has reached the extreme.
"Wine or drink?" Seeing Wang Ming start to move his chopsticks, Shangguan Jing'er smiled again, while Wang Ming smiled indifferently.
"Let's have a glass of boiled water, it will help you to taste the mysterious dish you said for a while." Wang Ming said with a smile and put down the chopsticks in his hand.
"It's a coincidence... When I go out to eat, I only drink plain water. Shangguan Jing'er said with a smile, took a glass of boiled water from the water heater on the side, and put it in front of Wang Ming.
"Ahem... I'm a multigrain animal, and I can do anything, but in order to taste the mysterious dishes you mentioned, it's better to have plain water. Wang Ming said softly, while Shangguan Jing'er nodded indifferently.
"It's good to drink more plain water." Shangguan Jing'er said, sat down opposite Wang Ming, picked up a piece of black fungus mixed with shredded onions, and put it in his mouth between the red lips slightly opened.
The texture of the black fungus is crisp and tender, mixed with sweet and slightly spicy onion rings, after the salty and fresh bottom taste, it is a small sour and sweet taste, and after that, it reflects the faint mustard taste, a mouthful of onion fungus chewed in the mouth, the crisp texture and compound taste, made Shangguan Jing'er himself nod lightly.
"The cold dishes are well done, very crisp and appetizing." Wang Ming also picked up a piece of black fungus, put it in his mouth and chewed it, and said softly, and at this moment, the door of the small private room was opened, and a waiter in work clothes walked in, holding a pot in his hand, and after putting it on the table, he lit the alcohol stove under the pot.
The pale blue flames jumped gently, burning the pot above, making the already hot dishes in it quickly boil, bubbling hot, but also exuding bursts of fragrant flavor.
"Lamb?" The tip of his nose was swirling with the smell of strong fragrance, Wang Ming's eyes looked at the pale yellow soup in the pot, and said softly, while Shangguan Jing'er nodded.
"Can you eat spicy?" Shangguan Jing'er asked, and after looking at Wang Ming and nodding, she poured the spicy sauce prepared in the small bowl on the side into the pot, making the original light yellow soup instantly become bright red, and at the same time, a rich spicy fragrance escaped directly from it.
"Pot boy red soup mutton." Shangguan Jing'er said with a smile, picked up the soup spoon in the pot, and gently stirred, watching the soup gradually appear a light dark red, bubbling with small red bubbles, and then exploded, reorganized, and circulated, making the spicy taste even stronger.
"It's really a different way, although I have made this dish before, but it is not this method, after making the red soup directly, the mutton is put in it and slowly stewed." Wang Ming licked his lips and said to Shangguan Jing'er, and as his voice fell, Shangguan Jing'er also nodded, her delicate mixed-race face full of smiles.
"The production process of this spicy sauce is a bit complicated, although they are all red soup mutton, but the spicy taste is different, spicy but not heartburn, and spicy but not dry... You try. Shangguan Jing'er spoke, and after Wang Ming nodded, with a hint of expectation on his face, he picked up the small bowl on the side, picked up two pieces of mutton, and added some of the hot red soup inside, and then put it in front of him.
"You eat too, it feels weird to look at me like this." Wang Ming said with a smile, and Shangguan Jing'er also nodded, and after serving a small bowl, he put it aside and gently stirred the soup in the pot.
Wang Ming stretched out his chopsticks, stirred the red soup in the small bowl, felt the rich spicy fragrance overflowing, and then, picked up a piece of light yellow mutton, put it to his mouth and blew it gently.
The mutton is seven points thin and three points fat, hanging with red and bright soup, overflowing with a rich spicy taste, wrapping around the tip of Wang Ming's nose, looking at the crystal red mutton in front of him, Wang Ming blew it again, and carefully put it to his mouth...
