Chapter 403: Enlightenment

The small thin shell was cooked by Hong Guni into one exquisite and tempting dish after another, and when everyone looked back and felt that it was supporting, the table was already a mess of cups and plates, leaving no trace behind.

Shui Ying burped and said with a smile: "This common dish can be made so delicious, it's really not simple, Hong Guni, I really have you." ”

Hong Guni grinned and said modestly: "But compared to my brother, it's still a little worse, I don't dare to let you eat too much, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat at night, haha." ”

"Home cooking is a dish that is made and eaten at home on a daily basis. Home cooking is the source of Chinese cuisine and the basis of local cuisine. Families can also stir-fry dishes using existing condiments. Dishes made with this thin-shelled rice are truly satisfying. Bai Xia commented, but immediately sighed: "It's not ......"

After pondering for a while, although Bai Xia felt a little rude, he still had to say: "In the end, there is still no way to win before the god-ready cooking duel, and the home-cooked food is still slightly inferior." ”

After speaking, Bai Xia looked at Hong Guni's face a little, afraid that it would hurt this young man's heart.

However, Hong Guni could see it, he just shrugged his shoulders, what kind of level he is, what style his chef has, of course he knows, just sighed, and said with a wry smile: "No way, although there are still many dishes in the thin shell banquet that I haven't made yet, but a few dishes are already the best dishes I can make at present." Hope it gives you some inspiration. ”

Hong Guni shrugged his shoulders and looked at the sullen Su Congshuang.

Su Congshuang sighed. Although the food made by Hong Guni is delicious, as Bai Xia said, there is no way to win in front of the gods in the end. Home-cooked food is always home-cooked food, no matter how delicious it is, no one will put it on the wedding banquet, and its grade is still lower after all.

Sikong Yao patted Congshuang's shoulder and comforted: "Congshuang, smile, don't be so sad." Didn't Gu Ni provide us with fresh ingredients, anyway, there are two days for today and tomorrow. I can't think of it for a while. Just think slowly, don't suffocate yourself. ”

Su Congshuang nodded, squeezing out a smile in front of him, but he was still a little embarrassed. The melancholy in his eyes. In the end, it did not disperse.

Hung Guni said, "Why don't I show you around?" Walking around, maybe you'll get some inspiration? ”

The crowd acquiesced to the offer, and after the meal was full. It's also a good idea to take a walk. Hong Guni took people to visit the industries around the Hong family, and the most common of this family, which is to make thin shells, is naturally hard-working cadres.

The thin-shelled man will drive the boat to the sea where there is a thin shell, then take off his clothes, dive naked into the sea, take a net bag with a small shovel at the front, cut out the thin shell and soil, put it into a net bag, and then return to the water, so that the work can be carried out continuously, and only young men with good water quality and physical strength can do this work. However, some experienced middle-aged people, due to the habits they have honed for a long time, are also competent. But if you get older, I'm afraid you're a little overwhelmed.

Gradually, the sun darkened, and after Hong Guni took everyone around, the number of guests who came to and from Hong's house gradually increased, all of whom were guests who came to attend tonight's wedding banquet.

Hong Guni smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I have to entertain those guests, otherwise my father will talk about me." ”

Sikong Yao smiled: "It's okay, you go and get busy, we can take care of ourselves." ”

Hong Guni picked a table for them that was not considered the queen mother, and said, "I'm sorry, there are all clan relatives in front, and I want you to sit in the front, but it's unreasonable, I'm sorry." ”

Sikong Yao hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no, no, it's us who disturbed you, don't say that." ”

Hong Guni nodded and said, "Then you sit down first, I'll go and entertain the others, and there will be a wedding banquet soon, haha." ”

About half an hour later, basically more than 40 tables have been full of guests, it is estimated that the auspicious time has arrived, the master of ceremonies who presided over the scene said some opening words, and finally said loudly: "So now, the auspicious time has arrived, let us applaud the bride and groom to enter!" ”

A wedding banquet, also known as "wedding wine", is a grand feast held on the wedding day to thank the guests. If the wedding pushes the whole wedding event to a climax, then the wedding banquet is the culmination of the climax.

The wedding banquet etiquette is cumbersome and exquisite, from the table to the serving, from the composition of the dishes to the dining ceremony. The arrangement of the table, the placement of the dishes, etc., there is a set of rules in each place. Nowadays, most of the wedding banquets are held in hotels, and most of the local marriages are set up in the local greenhouses to sit together with the villagers. When the bridal float arrives in front of the hotel, the groomsmen have to open the door for the groom first, and then the groom will open the door for the bride. When the bride and groom arrive at the door of the banquet hall, the parents of each side stand in a row to greet the guests and thank them for their arrival, and most of the grooms have to bless the guests.

At the beginning of the wedding banquet, the master of ceremonies should personally arrange for a special person to bring the bride's "big guest" and bridesmaids to the seats to show respect. The arrangement of wedding banquet seats is mainly and secondary, and the specific sitting method varies from place to place. According to Yantai customs, the bride's guest is at the first table, and the escort and guest should face the stage so that it is easy to watch the wedding ceremony. However, if the guests are two generations with different generations, they should be arranged separately, the so-called "two generations are not at the same table". When the table is listed on the welcome list, it is generally called the first table of the dragon table and the phoenix table, and when arranging the table, it is best to arrange people of the same gender, the same age, and familiar with each other at the same table. This will enhance the atmosphere of the wedding banquet by having a common language at the banquet.

After the wedding ceremony, the banquet begins. At this time, the bride should not be in a hurry to change her dress, but should wait for the first hot dish to be served and use a chopstick to signal that the guests are ready to open the table. When the wine has passed the five flavors of the Lenten dishes, the bride and groom should go to each table in turn to toast each guest. When toasting, hold the glass up to the guest with both hands, but don't force the guest to drink it all at once. After the guests have lowered their glasses, the bride and groom should smile and say "thank you" and fill the glasses for the guests before toasting to the next guest. It should be noted that the bride and groom's closest peers are placed at the last two tables. In order to facilitate the newcomer to "go out of the show" when toasting, so as not to affect the progress of the toast, so that the guests behind will wait for a long time.

However, although the etiquette is cumbersome, after the appearance of the bride and groom, for the diners, it means that the dishes are finally on the table.

Hong Guer's cooking is extremely attentive, I don't know how long he has been working for this wedding banquet, whether it is from the selection of materials or the order of naming, the dishes are painstaking, and he even made up a ballad.

The four seas rhyme and sing together, and Luan Feng is happy to reflect the fairy pool.

A hundred years of good and brocade jade belt, the sea vow mountain alliance dragon and phoenix match.

The old red line of the moon is affectionate, and the wings will fly on the crane bridge.

There is more than a long celebration for a long time, and the screen window is embroidered with mandarin duck pillows.

Concentric composing gold song, Tanabata couples holding hands.

Flowers and lotus, orchids and fruits are a family carnival.

The 12 dishes correspond to the dragon and phoenix platter, mini Buddha jumping over the wall, Yuhuan mandarin duck shellfish, steamed lobster with garlic, braised spicy cucumber buckle fish, money chicken stuffed chicken wings, sweet and sour fried black tuna, assorted stewed vegetables, red sturgeon rice cake, milkfish ball soup, reunion lotus seed dew, and a fruit and vegetable platter around the world. All dishes are named after auspicious words, mainly to convey good wishes to the newlyweds, set off the atmosphere, and delight the guests.

At the end of the feast, the bride and groom stand in the doorway, shake hands with the guests, and say something like "Please go slowly".

When all the guests left, the Hong family was busy cleaning up the mess, and Hong Guni naturally couldn't be idle.

Although he often quarrels with his brother and can't get used to his preaching, Hong Guni still has respect for his cooking. At least in terms of cooking skills, for the time being, Hunggoni is ashamed of himself.

Hong Guni smiled bitterly: "Sure enough, the eldest brother is more powerful, this kind of cuisine is more suitable for entertaining guests in the hall." My cooking is still a little worse. ”

Sikong Yao soothed: "Gu Ni doesn't have to be so frustrated, your food is also delicious." Although Brother Guer's cuisine seems to be of a higher grade, I may think that I have to deal with a large number of productions, but I think it is far inferior to you in terms of care. If you really want to taste it, your food is more resistant to scrutiny. Feel...... Ate out your style? ”

"My style?" Hong Guni pondered for a while, and then laughed and said: "Haha, too, the restaurant I want to open is a full-thin shell banquet home-cooked food, brother, these gorgeous and fancy dishes are suitable for taking to the hall to fill the grade, but they are not there." Ordinary people, in the end, still prefer my home-cooked food more, hahaha. ”

The confusion in Hong Guni's heart disappeared, and Sikong Yao's words of comfort not only swept away the troubles in Hong Guni's heart, but also opened Su Congshuang's heart knot.

"Sister Xiaoyao, thank you so much, I know what kind of cooking I should make!" Su Congshuang shouted excitedly.

Sikong Yao was puzzled: "Huh? What's wrong with the frost, what do you think of? ”

Su Congshuang smiled: "It's the one you said, your own style." I know what kind of food to make! ”

"Ah...... Oh, that's it, that's good! Sikong Yao was puzzled for a while, but since Su Congshuang swore so much, she naturally smiled and said, "Then what is your cuisine?" ”

Su Congshuang nodded and said, "That's integrated into my awe of the sea god, as well as my personal cooking style, as well as local cuisine, let's sell it, and wait for the day of the competition, you will know." ”

Sikong Yao shrugged his shoulders and said angrily: "Okay, you have learned it now, and you still have to hang people's appetites." ”

Su Congshuang smiled: "Because there are some things that I still have to test, I can't guarantee absolute success, so let's wait until it's made, and then I'll tell you." (To be continued......)
