Chapter 142: Mountains and Flowing Water Meet Bosom Friends
ps: Today's first update, it's almost the middle of the month, everyone has a monthly pass, please support more, thank you.
Qi Xiang went out and went straight to the lake, and then fished a fat whitebait in the lake and came back. He took the whitebait to the kitchen, but instead of slaughtering it, he drew a basin of water and kept it in a basin.
When the whitebait enters the water, it immediately stirs up a splash of water, which is full of wildness.
Seeing this, Qi Xiang also felt very satisfied. He groaned, went back to his bedroom, took a box, and went back to the kitchen sink.
At the right time, Qi Xiang opened the box, only to see that the box was filled with crystal clear moonlight dewdrops. He picked up one of the dewdrops and threw it into the basin. The dew is very transparent, and it disappears as soon as it enters the water.
But at this moment, the wild whitebait suddenly turned around and swung its tail, causing a splash, and then the fish's mouth opened and swallowed suddenly, as if it had swallowed something into its stomach.
Swallowing something, the whitebait floated in the water and was quiet for a moment. After a while, the whitebait suddenly shook all over its body, and the fine scales all trembled, one by one, one by one, for a long time.
Qi Xiang estimated the time, about ten minutes passed, and the silverfish slowly returned to normal, and then swam leisurely in the water. He noticed that the whitebait was swimming faster, and that it was strong and scubic, and that it had no marks in the diving.
"It's working well."
Qi Xiang nodded happily and threw another dew drop into it.
Next, Qi Xiang fed the whitebait with moonflower dewdrops, and it was enough to raise the sky. In this short period of time, whitebait has undergone great changes. Not only fat and robust. And the scales are very fine and hard, flashing a little bit of light.
"It's fat, you can kill it."
Qi Xiang was very satisfied, and then immediately reached out and copied the silverfish.
As soon as the whitebait leaves the water, its fat body begins to swing vigorously, and the strength of it is not small. But Qi Xiang's wrist was very calm, and he easily put the silverfish on the chopping board.
"Bang!"
Timely. Qi Xiang's hand was like lightning, and he slapped it heavily on the fish's head, and the silverfish was suddenly stunned, and lay down softly, revealing the silver-white fish belly......
Meanwhile. Someone poked outside the kitchen door and was surprised: "You cook?" β
"What, can't you?" Qi Xiang smiled and said: "When I was on the boat, I had a few hands with Tian Shi, and my skills were definitely not as deep as his, but I also had four points of skill." β
"Huh!"
The man scoffed, and walked into the kitchen, slightly chubby. The simple and lovely face is Zhu Shen, who is a huge rich man in Wuxi and went to sea to explore together.
When he returned from sailing, he didn't know what compensation Tian Shi and the others had given him, and he didn't have any complaints anyway. I went straight home.
Yesterday, I received a call from Qi Xiang, saying that he wanted to invite himself to dinner. Zhu Shen was also surprised, but thought about it. He decided to come over anyway. At best, it can be regarded as having the experience of sharing hardships, and this aspect still has to be given.
What's more, Zhu Shen is not stupid. After sobering up on the boat, I inquired, only to know that it was Qi Xiang who saved everyone in the end. Although it is only a rescue without danger, it is also a small favor.
In the face of this favor, Zhu Shen decided to appreciate his face and came arrogantly......
"You don't believe me?"
Seeing Zhu Shen's suspicions, Qi Xiang suddenly smiled: "Do you want to gamble?" β
"Bet on what?"
Zhu Shen was stunned and a little puzzled.
Qi Xiang avoided talking about Caitou, but smiled and said, "Wait a minute, I made the fish, you can taste it." If I eat and can resist not moving the chopsticks, then I will lose. If you can't help it, then I've won. β
"Aha!" Zhu Shen pulled it and said with a smile: "Then you must have lost badly." β
"Don't say this too early, lest it be difficult to ride a tiger later." Qi Xiang was full of confidence, grabbed a tool and clumsily scaled the whitebait.
Qi Xiang's movements were rusty, and after scraping for a long time, the scales were not cleaned.
Zhu Shen didn't look at it anymore, frowned and shook his head, and said lazily: "Forget it, you toss slowly, I'll go out for a walk." β
"Please!" Qi Xiang didn't raise his head, he was very attentive and serious. After successful scaling, disembowelment is carried out, and then carefully deboned with a sharp knife......
Anyway, Qi Xiang was busy in the kitchen for more than half an hour before walking to the dining room with a large covered tray.
Since he was entertaining guests, Qi Xiang would definitely not prepare just one dish, he had already booked a table of delicacies in the city restaurant. However, as a sign of sincerity, he decided to cook his own dish.
Now that the dish is ready, Qi Xiang did not hesitate, and immediately called Zhu Shen, who was wandering around the manor, over and officially opened the banquet.
On the dining table, the lakes are steaming and fragrant. At first glance, Zhu Shen was also stunned: "You did all this?" β
"It's not ......," Qi Xiang said frankly: "It was sent by the big restaurant." β
"Ugh!" Zhu Shen was suddenly relieved, and said with a roll of his eyes: "Then what are you still tossing in the kitchen just now?" β
"It's different, it's different." Qi Xiang smiled and said: "The kitchen skills of the big restaurant are good, but the dishes they cook are full of craftsmanship, and they are definitely not as delicious as what I cook." β
Zhu Shen pursed his lips, pointed to the covered plate and said, "You did this?" β
"Yes!" Qi Xiang nodded solemnly: "I feel that I played at a super level today, and I should have Tian Shi's seven or eight successes." This dish is definitely the highest level of culmination in my seven or eight years of cooking......"
"Haha, haha." Zhu Shen couldn't help but burst into laughter: "As for it, it's so serious." β
"No, it's not true." Qi Xiang didn't laugh, and said seriously: "I still want to win you." β
"What?" Zhu Shen was quite vigilant, feeling that Qi Xiang's words seemed to be a little unusual, and he doubted at the moment: "What do you mean by this?" β
"It's not interesting." Qi Xiang smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and lifted the cover, and gestured, "Come, you can taste this sashimi ...... I made."
"Sashimi?" Zhu Shen didn't look at the dish, but his eyes widened, and he was shocked and stunned: "You use whitebait to make sashimi, aren't you afraid of parasites?" β
Speaking of which. This is kind of common sense, right?
Although sashimi originated in China, it was already popular among princes and nobles as early as the Western Zhou Dynasty. At that time, it was called yuji, and after it was introduced to Japan, it was called sashimi.
But the strange thing is that the sashimi method that originated in China has gradually declined in China, and has become popular in Japan and South Korea. It became a unique diet.
The root cause of this is, of course, the problem of parasites. The ancient Chinese were very smart. It was discovered early on that after eating a lot of sashimi, it is easy to get sick, so avoid eating it.
People in Japan and South Korea often eat sashimi. But there are no such concerns. The main reason is that China is a large landlocked country, and most of the fish it eats are freshwater fish. Japan and South Korea are near the sea, and most of the fish eaten is marine fish.
It is well known that freshwater fish have much higher parasites than marine fish.
It is now recognized around the world that the most delicious fish to make sashimi are marine fish such as tuna fish.
So Zhu Shen listened. Qi Xiang actually used whitebait to make sashimi, and his first reaction was that Qi Xiang had no common sense, and he didn't even understand basic food dishes, and he still expected to be able to cook well?
In contrast, Qi Xiang is very calm. smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm a fish." It has been treated with special means and is absolutely free of parasites. β
"How to deal with it. Cooked? When Zhu Shen heard this, he was also a little relieved, and then looked down. I was stunned for a moment.
I saw that the sashimi on the tray seemed to have been frozen, and as soon as the cover was lifted, wisps of cold air flowed out, making the plate quickly form a layer of light mist.
Of course, these are not the main points, the key is the sashimi on the plate.
Originally, Zhu Shen didn't have any expectations, but when he looked at it, he felt that this plate of sashimi seemed to be very good. Pieces of sashimi, cut very thin and transparent, white as snow, very delicate.
It can be seen that Qi Xiang is also more attentive when arranging the plate. Pieces of fish sheng, arranged in layers, are like pieces of fish scales, faintly emerging with a crystal clear luster.
"Looks ...... It's pretty good. Zhu Shen's eyes blinked, and he was a little skeptical: "You really did it?" β
"Nonsense." Qi Xiang said angrily: "It's not me, is it you?" β
"It's hard to say...... Zhu Shen said with a smile: "Maybe it's the chef of the big restaurant who makes it, and you take it out again." β
Qi Xiang didn't argue, but said: "You taste it, how fresh this fish is born." The chef of the big restaurant is ready to send it over, is it freshly killed and freshly cooked? β
"That's ......" Zhu Shen nodded and agreed. After all, he had been walking around the manor for more than half an hour, and he hadn't seen anyone coming in or out to deliver food. This sashimi is freshly made by Qi Xiang, there must be no doubt about it.
Therefore, Zhu Shencai hesitated: "It looks good, but the whitebait sashimi ...... Can it be delicious? β
"You can eat a slice." Qi Xiang said with a smile: "Fulfill the bet just now, if you eat and don't want to eat anymore, then I will lose." If you eat it and want to eat it again, I'll win. β
"Wait......" Zhu Shen felt that something was wrong: "Are you luring me into the trap?" What do you want to do if I lose? I won, what about you? β
"You eat first, and when you're done, we'll talk about it." Qi Xiang wanted to fool the past.
didn't think about it, but Zhu Shen was not fooled: "No, you make it clear first, otherwise I won't eat." β
"Okay......" Qi Xiang smiled helplessly: "Don't mention any gambling appointments, in fact, I invite you to a banquet today, mainly because I have something to do and want to ask you for a favor." β
"Huh?" Zhu Shen was stunned: "What's the matter?" β
"I want to burn a kiln of porcelain, and I want to ask if you have a door." Qi Xiang said truthfully: "There are a lot of kilns in Yixing, you should have something to do with it, right?" β
Yixing is rich in purple clay pots, and there are naturally many kiln mouths. Thinking about Zhu Shen, it seems that he also plays with purple clay pots, so Qi Xiang feels that in this kind of thing, it is right to look for him.
At the same time, Zhu Shen's expression was very strange: "You want to burn porcelain?" β
"That's right." Qi Xiang nodded, and then wanted to find a reasonable excuse to explain the reason.
didn't think about it, at this moment, Zhu Shen was very excited, and had a feeling, and said happily: "Didn't you just say no, I have my own workshop in Yixing......" ()
