61 Shao Dayu

The fishing port is on a lake. At dusk, a dozen medium-sized fishing boats are lit up with colorful lights, illuminated by a lake of colorful stars.

Tourists choose fishing boats to board the boat and go boating on the lake. On one side of the fishing boat, a woman with light makeup sings softly and hums a ditty tune, and the tourists sit around the table in twos and threes, listening to the beautiful tune, enjoying the charming night view, and tasting the food. The night is picturesque, and people are in the painting.

Mrs. Sun, Zhuang Chuchu, Xiao Qi and his entourage also chose a fishing boat to get on the boat, seven or eight people occupied two tables, Yu Xiaoer sent the menu up, there are many dishes on the menu, in addition to the local seasonal dishes, the most distinctive is the fish, the fish is caught in the lake during the day, fresh and lively, with a net pocket hung on the stern of the lake water.

There are many ways to eat fish: braised fish, steamed, sweet and sour, one fish and three eats...... Zhuang Chuchu ordered ten kinds of fish in one go, which alarmed the chefs on the boat. The chef only said that this is an expert, and he came to explore his own housekeeping skills. Do it with your heart.

Mrs. Sun said, "Sister, order so many plates of fish, let's just eat fish today?"

Xiao Qi said: "When I came to the fish town, I naturally ate fish. ”

Zhuang Chuchu said: "I am a drunkard, and I don't mean to fish." The No. 6 boat we got on is said to be the best fish in these boats. The chef's surname is Shao, and his nickname is Shao Dayu. ”

Zhuang Chuchu: As soon as they arrived here in the afternoon, they booked an inn first. Shao Dayu is Zhuang Chuchu specially asked the innkeeper to consult, the shopkeeper said, the shopkeeper said, Shao Dayu made fish, not only outsiders to patronize, they also often go to the locals, so the No. 6 boat is often full.

"Huh? You have other intentions. Mrs. Sun said.

"Think about our Xiaomeishan, what's in the river?"

"Black fish!" Mrs. Sun has also eaten Meishan's black fish, the fish is delicious, the general river fish is not big, and the black fish is a rare big guy. The small ones weigh one pound, the big ones weigh three or four pounds, and there is the largest black fish that has been caught, about ten pounds, and the fishermen are quickly dragged into the river.

"By the way, we have blackfish. But our side is basically fish stew, fresh is fresh. But if you eat a dish often, you will get tired. If you're lucky, learn how to make and eat fish, and if you're lucky, you'll ......."

As soon as Zhuang Chuchu said this, the first fish came up. Fish fillet in sauce. A front dish like a cold dish. The fish is marinated, cut into thin slices, the fish fillets are white, poured with chutney, taste a bite, sour and crispy, very appetizing.

The first fish amazed everyone.

The four and five juniors at the table all said that it was strange that they had not seen fish make cold dishes.

The second course of fish is crispy fried fish balls. Fish balls Q bomb, there is a layer of burnt yellow crispy skin on the outside of fish balls, crispy on the outside, Q smooth on the inside, and it also retains the freshness and sweetness of the fish. Even Mrs. Sun said that it was the first time she had eaten such fish balls.

One by one, the fish came to the table. The melodious tune and the charming night scene failed to attract Zhuang Chuchu, Mrs. Sun, and Xiao Qi, and their attention was all on this plate of fish.

The hedgehog fish, the fish is fried to a golden brown, cut into scales, fried into a golden round shape, the flesh of the fish bursts one by one, like a golden hedgehog full of thorns, when it enters the table, pour the sweet and sour sauce with oil flowers on the hedgehog.

Xiao Qi said: "This is eating fish, this is purely a performance." ”

Zhuang Chuchu said: "Food culture, food is originally a culture. It is the highest level of a chef to create a variety of dishes with limited ingredients and bring a feast to the eyes and tastes. This Shao Dayu is really at the master level. ”

When the last hedgehog fish came up, Shao Dayu actually followed, he stood behind a table of people, originally wanted to wait for the fish to ask the customer's opinion, he was also very curious about the two tables of customers who ordered ten fish, this will hear Zhuang Chuchu's heartfelt praise, couldn't help but step forward, hugged his fist, and said:

"Thank you for the recognition of the guest officer, Shao Dayu is below. ”

Zhuang Chuchu hugged his fists slightly: "Master Shao, I have admired the name for a long time." We're here today, it's worth it. ”

Shao Dayu saw Zhuang Chuchu as the leader, young and beautiful, with a bit of a general in her eyebrows, and knew that she must be an idle person.

Zhuang Chuchu's eyes saw Shao Dayu, his eyebrows were bright, his body was lean, his clothes were simple and neat, if compared with ordinary people, the only difference between Master Shao was that his arms were longer than ordinary people.

Zhuang Chuchu also added some respect to Shao Dayu, and invited Shao Dayu to come to the table and have a drink, and Shao Dayu readily agreed.

Zhuang Chuchu introduced a few people to Shao Dayu. A few people chatted for a while about the practice of fish and the fish dishes they had seen from north to south. It is said that the fish eaten here may be the best fish feast.

Zhuang Chuchu asked Shao Dayu: "Master, how many kinds of fish can you make?"

Shao Dayu said: "My family's ancestors are made fish, and there are 65 kinds of dishes handed down, and I have innovated 13 kinds of dishes to my place, but the fish is divided into north and south, and the dishes are different according to the different tastes." There are only about 46 species suitable for lake fish. There are eight ways to do it, so it's not on the menu. ”

A table of people was amazed.

Shao Dayu said: "My ancestors used to stay in the palace before, specializing in making fish, and later came to my grandfather's generation, saying that the palace companion is like a tiger, and does not let the descendants enter the palace to serve the monarch." But the art of making fish has been passed down from generation to generation. ”

Zhuang Chuchu said, "No wonder the level of making fish is so high, it turns out that he is a descendant of the imperial kitchen." Master, have you ever heard of Blackfish?"

"Of course, I have heard that black fish are born in the river, and they especially like to live in the river where the current is fast, because they eat small fish for a living, and the amount of activity is large, so the spines are long and the body is large, and the meat is live and delicious. ”

The words made everyone present admire them.

"Is there a lot of dishes that can be made with black fish?" asked Mrs. Sun.

"Of course, most of the dishes are suitable. The black fish is large, it is most suitable for making a fish to eat more, the meat of the fin part is the most active, made into a bean curd fish fillet, the head of the fish is gelatinous, suitable for making steamed fish head, the meat of the fish body part is distinct, made into a pot, the fish belly part, and the fish ball or soft frying and soft cooking are OK. ”

Zhuang Chuchu felt that Xiaomeishan lacked such a fish master, so she hurriedly said to Shao Dayu: "Master, I have one thing I want to ask you for help, I don't know if to say it?"

Shao Dayu is also a cheerful person, "It's okay to say it directly." ”

Zhuang Chuchu said sincerely: "We bought a Xiaomei Mountain, and the river under Xiaomei Mountain is rich in black fish. We are going to open a tourism base that integrates catering and entertainment, but there is a lack of a chef who is proficient in making fish, the master is skilled, I don't know if I can move to Xiaomeishan to help us?"

Shao Dayu also felt Zhuang Chuchu's sincerity, he said: "Thank you for your love, I have been in this fishing boat for more than ten years, the boss treats me well, and I get along like my own brother, I can't go." ”

"Still. Shao Dayu said: "Although I can't go, I can still help you, so let's come to my house at noon tomorrow, I will invite you to eat fish, and then talk in detail." ”

Shao Dayu found a pen and paper and wrote down the detailed address. The group bowed down and thanked: "Thank you, Master, we will be on time tomorrow." ”
