Hearing Claudia ask him this, Matsumoto's face changed slightly, as if he remembered something he didn't want to remember.

But soon, Matsumoto nodded heavily.

"It's true that the French are very cruel to goose breeding, and I once heard a friend of French goose breeders talk about this...... For about three months after the eggs hatched, they were fed with ordinary feed, and then they would be moved into the cage one by one, and they would use a special funnel to pass the goose's neck, and they would be forced to eat twenty-four hours a day, and when the goose weighed twelve to fifteen kilograms, it could not even walk, and then began to slaughter, and the foie gras was fat and large, weighing five or six hundred grams, like a grapefruit, and it had to be held with two hands to be able to hold it, and the color was that pink very bright color. This kind of foie gras, in the eyes of my friend, is the most perfect. ”

This description, Matsumoto said in great detail, even Claudia's preparation of foie gras was very clear after hearing it, and the face of Tamahide Yoshiro, who had never understood this, became very ugly.

As far as Jester knows, Tamahidejiro's wife is a member of the Animal Protection Society, and under the influence of his wife, Tamahideyoshiro is also very passionate about animal protection.

After he heard Matsumoto say how to prepare foie gras, his face changed color, and he was a little scared on the table: "Isn't there any protest from the French animal protection society?" We release a game that is somewhat bloody and violent, so there are all kinds of protesters in this kind of association and that kind of association! ”

Jester smiled, just glanced at Tamahideyoshiro, and then explained.

"Of course, there were protests, but the French government ignored them, because the livelihood of many villages depended on raising this goose for liver, how could it be banned, and many French people who like to eat foie gras also cited scriptures, they said that since ancient times, forced poultry breeding has existed in ancient Rome, and the Romans still learned the technology from the Egyptians - and they also said that the goose is useless in the first place, and its only value is as a factory, Delicious for humans. ”

"Ridiculous!"

As a prospective animal protector, Yuxiu Yoshiro naturally scoffed at Jester's explanation, but if he wanted to say something, or that the goose really didn't seem to have any value other than being eaten, he suddenly looked a little depressed.

Of course, Claudia's explanation of foie gras is not over, such a topic about animal protection is just a small episode.

"Finally, there is the origin of foie gras, in fact, the reason why foie gras is so popular and popular now is after World War II, before World War II, foie gras was only a few French people know how to enjoy things, so in many books or film and television works, there seems to be a plot that everyone knows foie gras very well and likes very much, it must be unreliable, and at that time, housewives would choose a goose to forcibly raise in order to earn a little private money."

After the war, a doctor named Muza found out about this and carried it forward, advocating that the whole village should raise goose liver, which became a local handicraft. Dr. Muza, who has the most experience in foie gras and is very unique in his handling, said that fresh foie gras must first cut off the tendons in the middle of the liver, so that the foie gras will not be tough, which is not known to everyone. ”

Matsumoto also nodded again and again after hearing this, and kept saying, "That's true, no wonder the last time I treated foie gras by myself, I finally found that the taste would be so tough, so it turned out to be like this." ”

"I know that's all, and there's a classic way to eat foie gras from Dr. Muza, which I've tried, and it's really hard to put into words." After Claudia finished speaking, not only Matsumoto, but also Jester and Tamahide Yoshiro pricked up their ears.

This also made Claudia a little proud.

"First of all, make a cake base, then slice the fresh foie gras and spread it on top, and then spread a layer of black truffle mushrooms, because Bi Lige is also the most famous black truffle mushroom production area, so this is a way to eat with two rare ingredients of Bi Lige, and then spread the foie gras on the black truffle mushroom after the prize, and finally spread a cake lid on it, put it in the oven for about an hour, take it out and slice it to eat, after trying it, you know what is called the world's delicious!"

After speaking, Claudia couldn't help licking her lips, and the look of nostalgia in her eyes became more and more intense, obviously, she really missed the way she said about eating foie gras with black truffles.

Not only Claudia, but even Jester's eyes couldn't help but show a look that he must try it if he has the opportunity.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

After Matsumoto heard this, he couldn't help but applaud, obviously, his interest also rose, he threw down the work in his hand, and then took a look, and saw that at this time, there was no one else except Jester, Claudia, and Tamahide Yoshiro.

He simply clapped his hands and said directly: "Hearing you say this, I'm not in the mood to do it, so let's take you to my cattle farm now, in my cattle farm, I will treat you to a big meal!" ”

And Jester did have a lot of affection for Matsumoto's cow farm, and Claudia too, and he nodded in agreement.

"Let's calculate how much it will be."

Seeing Matsumoto go inside to change clothes without saying a word, Jester reminded him loudly.

Unexpectedly, Matsumoto waved his hand directly, and said with some excitement in his tone: "It's my luck to meet a guest like you, even if I invite you!" ”

Matsumoto's cattle farm is in Mita, near Kobe.

There are cars, so it doesn't take a long time to get along the way, and I have to say that the scenery on the roads of Japan is still very good.

"You know what? Matsumoto is a master of charcoal burning, and the charcoal in his shop is all burned by himself! Along the way, Tamahide Yoshiro told some interesting stories about Matsumoto, especially when he heard that Matsumoto was a master charcoal burner, and Jester was surprised.

When he was in Matsumoto's shop, he saw the charcoal he used, judging from the appearance and the effect of using it, it was definitely the top Binchotan, and Binchotan was the most powerful among all kinds of charcoal, and it was also the most stable to maintain the firepower, not easy to extinguish, and it would not burst, it was almost a perfect kind of charcoal, and the people who could burn this charcoal were all masters, Jester originally thought that Matsumoto bought it at a high price from the Kii Peninsula, Wakayama, and Shirahama. He never imagined that these would be fired by Matsumoto himself.

And Matsumoto is also humble, and the words that come out of his mouth.

But Tamahide Yoshiro pursed his lips and continued to talk about Matsumoto's interesting story: "Matsumoto doesn't need to be modest at this point, he went to Wakayama to learn how to burn Bicho charcoal, and he personally went to Wakayama to learn how to learn, I don't know how much hardship he endured, and he went to work in the charcoal kiln in person, and even his eyebrows and hair were all burned out!" ”

"Oh, ellipsis Yuxiujun, you're talking about my troubles again."

Talking and laughing along the way, a group of several people quickly arrived at Matsumoto's cattle farm, there are many cattle farms in Matsumoto, this time a smaller one, the larger ones are a little far from here.

"I built this cattle farm close to it so that I can bring my friends to play."

Matsumoto explained.

In fact, the three of Jester didn't eat enough for the meal just now, after all, the meal was only half eaten, and Matsumoto couldn't wait to bring Jester and a few people here, and after coming here, before the official visit, of course, he finished the unfinished meal before.

Moreover, since you have come to the cattle farm, of course, you will still eat beef.

"I didn't have any utensils in my barbecue restaurant just now, so I can't cook you one of my best dishes."

As he spoke, after Jester and the others took their seats, Matsumoto also began to get busy, and it could be seen that he had a smile on his face and his movements were very brisk, obviously, he was in a very good mood.

"In my opinion, the most flavorful, softest, and most oily beef, the most suitable way to eat it, is the simplest boiled!"

Matsumoto said with a bright face.

In fact, the meat quality of beef is the toughest among all kinds of meat, and there is a sentence in the knife work of the kitchen that says this, called Hengniu Shunyu oblique cut pig, how to say this sentence? In fact, it is very simple, the so-called horizontal beef refers to the knife method used when cutting beef.

It is cut horizontally into the knife.

As for why this is so, it is even simpler, because the fiber of beef is very thick, if you don't cut it horizontally and cut off all the fiber of the beef, then the beef will be very tough after cooking, and the taste will be very poor, which is why the steak in Western food will not be ten mature, because if you do it, the steak will not be edible.

And the meaning of Shunyu is even simpler.

For fish meat, it is the most tender one, in principle, the horizontal cut, oblique cut, and smooth cut have little impact, but the most important thing is that there are often bone filaments in the fish, which are often unguardable, and even more stuck in the throat is really not good, in order to avoid this situation, it is best to cut along the fish pattern and the fish bone horizontally, so that the fish bone is relatively short, and the phenomenon of stuck throat will be greatly reduced.

Pork is more tender than beef, but older than fish, and generally speaking, it is more palatable, whether it is cooked old or tender, unless it is an old man who has lost his teeth. However, in order to bring out the tender and refreshing characteristics of the pork, it is best to cut it diagonally according to the grain, so that the meat slices can be tender and refreshing, and avoid being too loose.
