Chapter 454: The End of the Food Tour

Matsumoto sliced the fine Mita beef horizontally and set it aside.

Then, he took out another piece of turmeric, finely cut it into minced ginger with a Sande knife, put a stainless steel iron pot on the stove, and poured a pot of hot water into it.

Because it is hot water, the water heats up quickly, and within five minutes, the steam comes out and the water boils.

"Generally, in order to taste it, you only need to add a little soy sauce."

As he spoke, Matsumoto poured a small amount of open bottle of soy sauce into it, then placed the thinly sliced beef in the copper wire fence and immersed it all in the water.

Because the beef is frozen, the temperature is very low, and there are more beef slices in the fence, so the moment the fence is put in, the water is boiling and quiet, and then, Matsumoto quickly lifts the fence, and after the water rolls for the second time, he will boil the beef that has been burned to the point of half-cooked water in the first boiling water into the water.

Then he turned off the heat, took out the beef, and put it on a beautiful pottery plate, with a little Matsumoto's special dipping sauce, and put it in front of the three Jesters.

"Extraordinary!"

Jester also smiled at the first time, picked up a piece of boiled beef with chopsticks, and did not dip the sauce, just put it directly into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it directly, and then directly stretched out a thumbs up, and praised it sincerely.

Because the beef is the best Mita beef, it is also the position of the best willow of beef, but after the simplest way of processing boiling, there is a very pure beef flavor. And the meat is extremely smooth, and it doesn't have the same tough feeling as ordinary beef.

After eating this portion of boiled beef, Jester saw that Matsumoto had not prepared the next dish, and he was still a little curious, and was just about to ask out loud.

Didn't think of it. Matsumoto smiled mysteriously at first, then lowered his voice.

"Do you dare to eat puffer fish?"

Hearing this, Jester was taken aback, and Yuxiu Yoshiro also changed color slightly, only Claudia was a little confused, so she looked left and right at the two people around her. It's a little strange why these two people around me actually showed such a frightened look after hearing Mr. Matsumoto say the name of a food.

But this look of fear. It's different from the usual fear, it seems that it is a look that wants to try despite being afraid.

Jester took a deep breath, he saw Claudia's curiosity, and he didn't need to ask the other party, he lowered his voice and explained to her: "Puffer fish is a very delicious food, in my home country, puffer fish is called one of the three freshness of Jiang Chang. It is placed alongside anchovy and saury. ”

"Fugu actually lives in the sea, but it can also swim into rivers. Becoming a freshwater fish is one of the three fresh foods I said before, and the species in my country is in the river, so I have the name pufferfish, which was also transmitted to Japan from my hometown, as for why it is called a dolphin. It is as delicious as pork in the past. Pork is very precious. ”

"So this thing called puffer fish is delicious?" Claudia asked with a smile.

Jester nodded, "It's delicious, indeed." There is a story about puffer fish in my country, which is about the great poet Su Dongpo. "Claudia is very interested in Chinese poetry, of course, she has heard of Su Dongpo's name.

"In the past, there was a family who was very famous for making puffer fish, they knew that Su Dongpo was very famous in the literary world, and he liked to eat it very much, and even invented many delicacies, such as the famous Dongpo meat, which is known as the first literati dish in Chinese food, so when they learned that Su Dongpo was going to come to them to play, they wanted to invite Su Dongpo to eat puffer fish, and then asked Su Dongpo to write a poem to praise it."

"They are still very confident in their craftsmanship, they feel that as long as Su Dongpo eats the puffer fish they cooked, he will definitely be poetic, but there are not many people who dare to eat puffer fish, because puffer fish is highly poisonous!"

When Jester said that the puffer fish was highly poisonous, Claudia's expression also changed, and her face turned a little pale.

"If it's poisonous, someone dares to eat it?"

Jester smiled, "Of course, there is no shortage of stories about desperately eating puffer fish...... Or will it be this story, Su Dongpo was also very fond of food at that time, he had long heard of the delicacy of puffer fish, and this time he came to cook for him was the famous puffer fish cooking master, he couldn't restrain his desire at all, so he agreed without hesitation. ”

"When Su Dongpo was eating, it was naturally impossible for the family to watch him eat, and it was not polite to do so, so they waited in the room on the side, hoping to write a poem when they heard Su Dongpo eat excitedly, but they waited for a long time and did not hear Su Dongpo's poem."

The man couldn't help it at that time, so he quietly lifted the curtain that covered the room where Su Dongpo was, and took a sneak look, only to see Su Dongpo gobbling up the last puffer fish, and after eating the puffer fish, Su Dongpo patted his stomach with some unfinished thinking, and said a little unsatisfied......"

Speaking of this, Jester stopped talking, and Claudia was already fascinated by the story, and immediately couldn't wait to ask, "What did you say?" ”

"You can die!"

It was not Jester who spoke, but Mr. Matsumoto, who had been watching quietly before, which made Jester a little surprised: "Mr. Matsumoto has also heard this story?" Matsumoto still had a faint smile on his face.

"Of course, I've heard this story."

After finishing speaking, Matsumoto asked again: "Do you dare to eat puffer fish?" I have fugu here, I also have a certificate to cook fugu, and if you dare, I will treat you to eat it! ”

Fugu is a highly poisonous fish, and if you want to cook puffer fish in China or Japan, you must have a special certificate to be able to cook it.

Especially in Japan, only masters who have studied for more than 10 years are allowed to slaughter and cook pufferfish.

"It's a tiger pufferfish!"

Suddenly, Matsumoto said another sentence quietly, and this sentence suddenly made Tamahide Yoshiro swallow a big mouthful of saliva.

Tiger pufferfish!

There are more than 120 species of puffer fish in the world, 40 of which are in Japan, and the most advanced is the tiger pufferfish, which is very rare and can only be found in the Seto Inland Sea, the central part of Honshu Island, and the southern part of the Nakakai area.

This type of puffer fish is also easy to distinguish, with a pitch-black back and a white belly, spots all over the body in the center, and a large round spot like a solar eclipse.

However, because of the extreme rarity, the tiger puffer fish is very rare in the market, and there are generally black puffer fish to replace, this kind of black puffer fish is imported from South Korea, and it looks very similar to the tiger pufferfish, and there is also a large eclipse spot in the middle, but there are no markings in other places.

Jester glanced at Claudia, he didn't have any fear of eating pufferfish, and since Matsumoto dared to say it, of course, there was no problem, and there was an unwritten rule in the cooking of pufferfish, that is, after cooking the pufferfish, the chef must eat it first, and after confirming that it is really non-poisonous, it will be presented to the guests.

"Matsumoto-kun, I didn't expect you to be able to get a tiger pufferfish!" Tamahideyoshiro couldn't help licking his lips at this time and asked, "I know you have a certificate to cook pufferfish, but I didn't know that you could get this rare commodity." ”

"Haha!"

Hearing Tamahide Yoshiro's words, Matsumoto couldn't help laughing, he turned his head to look at Jester and Claudia: "I'm very good at eating pufferfish, in my place, eating puffer fish from the lowest level to the highest level, I divide it into several grades from elementary school to university, and eating it in this order is definitely more exciting than listening to a top-level symphony!" ”

It takes courage to eat pufferfish.

Claudia saw Jester looking at her, and she also smiled: "I'm a standard foodie, and you don't know that I'm not afraid of anything for the sake of food!" ”

At this time, Matsumoto was about to say something with a smile, but a phone on the table next to him suddenly rang.

Matsumoto went over to pick up the phone, and then looked at Tamahide Yoshiro.

"Yu Xiujun, it's from your company."

Hearing this, Tamahideyoshiro glanced at Jester, then went directly and took the phone from Matsumoto's hand, and Tamahideyoshiro's voice was very short, just a dozen seconds, he hummed a few times and hung up the phone.

"Jace, there's something going on in the company, our people are rushing here, and they can't understand it on the phone, and they want to report it to you in person."

Tamahideyoshiro walked up to Jester's side and said something in a small voice.

Although the voice was not loud, Matsumoto and Claudia could hear it clearly, and Jester also knew that he had already said before, if there was no particularly important matter, don't come to bother him, and this time not only did the phone call, but people rushed over directly, obviously, it must be a very important thing.

Not long after, twenty minutes, outside the cattle farm in Matsumoto, I heard someone shouting.

Matsumoto went out to have a look.

Sure enough, it was someone from Mars Entertainment Japan's branch who came.

After receiving the news from the Osaka branch, Jester could only regret ending this not a successful trip to the cattle farm, of course, he still expressed his gratitude to Matsumoto, the level of the previous boiled beef was indeed very high. (To be continued) R466
