Peugeot's bartenders lined up and walked in slowly through the side door, orderly, but they saw that they were serving fragrant delicacies in their hands, and they were all the latest dishes.
"Here, here."
The group of people in Gao Ya were really elusive, and now they were sitting in the VIP area, standing up, raising their hands and shouting, the red and white lampshade was really dispensable to him.
Gao Yu snorted angrily, shameful.
Song Huizong smelled this fragrance, Fang Jue was a little hungry, and said, "Everyone, let's go and taste Li Qi's craftsmanship together, and see what delicacies he has made today." β
"Yes."
Gao Yu said again: "Big official, I'll go and drive the son away immediately." β
Rush again? It's duck catching.
Li Qi was a little speechless about Gao Yanei, and only deeply sympathized with Gao Yanei.
Don't talk about Li Qi, even Song Huizong felt embarrassed, and said: "The bar has just opened today, and Kang Er is the proprietor of this bar, how can we drive the proprietor outside, let them go, don't spoil their interest." β
The group returned to the VIP area, sat in the corner, and tried to distance themselves from Gao Yanei and the others.
This first dish is oily and shiny, piece by piece, strung with bamboo sticks, decorated with chopped green onions and minced ginger, I don't know what it is made of.
Song Huizong picked up a bunch and ate a slice, nodded and said: "Spicy and fragrant, tender and slag, full of taste, delicious, delicious, Li Qi, what is this called?" β
Li Qi replied: "This is called a husband and wife lung piece." β
"Oh? What lungs is this made of? I can't eat it. Song Huizong said curiously.
"Oh, this is not actually made with lungs, this dish is made of beef heart and beef leg meat, and someone happened to slaughter a cow today, so I made such a dish, and I will use haggis in the future." Li Qi laughed.
Now that he doesn't commit suicide privately, of course Li Qi has to explain this clearly.
"Then why is it called a husband and wife lung piece?"
"Well, this is because this dish was actually made by my parents, and the family was relatively poor at that time, so it could only be made with pig lungs, so it was called husband and wife lung slices." Li Qi said nonsense, his parents really don't know how many black pots they helped him carry.
"I see."
While speaking, Song Huizong had already finished eating the string in his hand, looked down again, and found that the plate was empty, glanced at it, and found that everyone had a string of hands, and the one that was eaten was called a fragrant, swallowed his saliva, and his face was slightly displeased, fortunately, the second dish had come up.
This dish aroused everyone's curiosity as soon as it appeared, it was a large golden ball, the size of a bow, and the only thing that was certain was that the small yellow dots on it were sesame seeds.
Song Huizong gasped and said, "What kind of dish is this?" β
"The old man looked at how the dish was a little similar to the Ju that the Taiwei played." Cai Jingzai carefully observed the ball and muttered.
Gao Yu smiled bitterly: "Taishi, don't make fun of Gao, this thing can't be kicked." β
Bow? What kind of eyes are they?
Li Qi saw that everyone was stretching their necks, looking around the round ball, smiled bitterly, and said: "Great officials, my lords, this is called a hemp ball, which is made of glutinous rice, sesame seeds, and bean paste. β
"Hemp balls?"
Song Huizong nodded and said, "Well, the dish is as its name, so how to eat this hemp ball?" β
"How to eat?"
Li Qimu blinked and said, "Well, I can eat whatever I want, with my hands." β
Before he finished speaking, Song Huizong grabbed the hemp ball, first looked at it closely, tore off a piece of skin with his hand and put it in his mouth, clicked a few times, and said, "Hmm." Crispy, this skin is thin and crispy, not bad. β
He tore a small bite, and the hemp ball immediately deflated, which made it more convenient for people to eat. He took another big bite, "Hmm, the filling here is even sweeter and more delicious." β
He learned to be obedient this time, first of all, protect it first, don't let people rob it.
The rest of the people heard the clicking sound, and their saliva flowed, and they all shot angry eyes at Richie, as if to say, why did you only prepare one.
mdγ This Nima also blames me, he finished eating such a big one.
Li Qi was also quite depressed in his heart, but seeing Song Huizong eating alone, it was estimated that he would not let go of this meeting, so he had to ask someone to serve another hemp ball, and then cut it directly with a knife into several points and distribute it to Cai Jing and others.
After everyone tasted this hemp ball, they nodded one after another, but felt a little dry mouth, and drank a glass of wine together, smashed it a few times, Zhao Kai asked: "Li Qi, your wine seems to be a new wine, it looks like clear water, like a clear spring, and it is sweet and delicious in the mouth, but when you drink it, it is a little spicy, like a fire burning in the chest, but what is the specific taste, but people can't say, it's really strange." What is this wine? β
Li Qi smiled: "This wine is my latest brew, and it is also in the world's unparalleled series, called 'Black Night'." β
"Dark night? It's a strange name. Zhao Kai shook his head and said.
"This is because this wine is not like other wines, it doesn't have a unique taste, and it makes people feel very confused, just like people in the night, so I named it Black Night, and the bar is also open at night." β
Song Huizong laughed and said: "Yes, this name is good, simple but without losing its charm, of course, this wine is also quite good, and confusion is also a taste." β
It's a beautiful thing to say, and it's not an artist.
Li Qi nodded and smiled: "The big officials are very good, and a few simple words can tell the true meaning of this wine." β
Song Huizong smiled proudly, and suddenly saw another bartender come up, this time it was a plate of small dates, but he saw that a small opening was made on each red date, and the inside was white and tender, which was very cute.
This time, Li Qi didn't wait for them to ask, and said: "This dish is called 'Smile and Mouth Changkai', and it is made with red dates and yams. β
"I see."
Zhao Kai smiled slightly and said: "The red one on the outside is like a woman's cherry lips, and the yam in the middle is like the bright teeth in the red lips, so it is called a smile, Li Qi, am I wrong?" β
A woman's cherry lips? This statement is really good, fellow practitioners, another day Lao Tzu will get another black fungus for you to eat, hehe.
Li Qi nodded and smiled: "What Zhao Gongzi said is right, that's exactly what he meant." β
"The food in your bar is really more interesting than the other."
Song Huizong smiled, picked up a morning jujube and threw it out of his mouth, nodded and said, "It's sweet and sour, and it's quite interesting to eat." β
The next dish is Hong Kong's famous snack, bowl cake, Li Qi himself is also very fond of eating, every time he goes to Hong Kong, he must eat a snack.
Bowls of snow-white and crystalline, oily and smooth bowl cakes are placed in front of everyone, and it makes people drool when they look at it.
In fact, Li Qi still has some regrets about this bowl cake, he once ate a kind of red bean bowl cake at a roadside stall in Hong Kong, which is called a delicious one, but he came home and pondered for several days and nights, and he couldn't make that kind of taste, but that was relative to later generations, in this year, Li Qi's bowl cake was unique.
"Three more bowls of bowl cakes for this office, tsk, this bowl cake is really delicious."
Gao Yanei over there suddenly stood up and shouted loudly, listening to the tone, being the boss is different.
Hong Tianjiu also said vaguely: "I want it too, I want it too." β
Gao Yu couldn't bear it anymore, clenched his teeth, and trembled all over.
Li Qi watched from the sidelines, and he was also in a cold sweat, he was afraid that this athlete couldn't help it for a while, and rushed over to beat Gao Yanei violently, in fact, Gao Yanei beat Gao Yanei, he didn't have any opinion, the key is not to beat it here, after all, Gao Yanei is also the owner of the bar.
Cai Jing glanced at Gao Yu, and said: "Don't be angry, Taiwei, Kang'er has a straightforward temperament, it's really rare, this bowl cake is really delicious, smooth and delicious, sweet and fragrant, sticky but not sticky to teeth, even the old man loves to eat at this age, the old man is still thinking that Li Qi will leave some for me, I will take it home later, keep it for tomorrow, you can help the old man to talk to Kang'er, let him eat less, don't eat it all." β
As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed, and Gao Yu also shook his head with tears and laughter.
Song Huizong couldn't hold back a smile and said: "Since Taishi loves to eat this bowl cake so much, I think I will let Li Qi change his name and call it Taishi cake." β
As soon as Chrysostom opened, Li Qi could only obey the order and said, "Yes, I will ask someone to change the name tomorrow." β
Cai Jing Dayue hurriedly said: "Thank you to the big officials for giving me the name, the old man deserves it." β
Song Huizong nodded with a smile and asked, "Li Qi, this bowl cake has been eaten, why hasn't the dish below been served." β
"Oh, the dish below is the treasure of the small shop, so it takes a long time to prepare." Richie replied. Since today is the first day of opening, Li Qi specially arranged one by one in order to let everyone better understand the food in this bar.
The treasure of the town?
Everyone expressed great anticipation.
After a while, this last dish was finally baked.
But the appearance of this dish did not cause the same repercussions as imagined, just from the appearance, ordinary, it is too ordinary.
There was a big plate with a little dark yellow soup in it, and on top of the soup was something like a white and tender peach and a bud.
The dish is not special, but the service is quite thoughtful, a dish is equipped with a bartender, the dish is on, the bartender did not go, obviously this dish is not so simple.
Song Huizong has Li Qi at this table, so naturally there is no need for other bartenders.
Song Huizong was puzzled: "Li Qi, this is the treasure of your town?" β
Li Qi nodded and said, "Yes, this dish is called 'Bath Rose'." β
"Rose on fire?"
Song Huizong frowned and said, "In my opinion, this dish is a bit unworthy of its name. β
"Official, please wait a moment."
Li Qi turned around and gestured to Xiao Yu, who was standing in the front court.
Xiao Yu nodded, and then led someone to the bar with a lampshade, and replaced all the bars with thick lampshades, because the bar is the brightest place in the whole bar, the brightness on its side has decreased, and the brightness of the entire bar has also decreased.
Seeing this, the bartenders who served the food took out the bamboo shreds they had prepared long ago, lit them, and then stretched the fire out of the dish in sync with Li Qi.
Whew.
But when I saw that the dish suddenly ignited, the whole bar was lit up.
"Mom!"
Gao Yanei's guy suddenly screamed, and the whole person jumped onto the sofa at once.
"It's on, it's on."
Then there were bursts of exclamations in the center of the field, and even the screams were faintly heard from upstairs.
Song Huizong and the others stared at the thing that resembled a bud in the plate, but they saw that the "bud" slowly opened, layer after layer, and the inside was pink and pink, like a flower blooming in a fire, which was very beautiful.
A wine scent with roses emanates from the flowers.
It's a spectacle!
The audience was dumbfounded.
After a while, the fire slowly became smaller, and a gorgeous flower gradually appeared in front of everyone.
After the fire was extinguished, Xiaoyu asked everyone to change back to the lampshade.
But the crowd still didn't come to their senses.
Silent.
Li Qi waited for a while, but still only heard the sound of everyone's breathing, and felt a little cautious in his heart, and whispered: "Big official, big official." β
At this call, everyone in the audience woke up suddenly, very stupid and naΓ―ve to ask each other what they had just seen, and their expressions were very cute.
Gao Yanei was startled and said: "Don't move, don't move, maybe it will come to fruition later." β
"Brother said that with you, this must be a fairy flower."
Outcome? You think it's a mythological film!
Li Qi deliberately shouted loudly: "Yanai, it won't bear fruit, you can eat it nowβeveryone please enjoy it." β
Song Huizong beckoned to Li Qi and said, "Li Qi, come over quickly and sit on my side." β
"Huh?"
"Ah, what, the big official told you to go over, you should go over quickly!" Bai Shizhong urged, Li Qi is already half of his son-in-law, Li Qi is good, he is naturally stained with this.
"Oh."
Li Qi honestly sat next to Song Huizong.
"Y-you're not a fairy magician?" Song Huizong was surprised.
Li Qileng paused, shook his head and said, "No." Big official, it's just a dish, that's all. β
"Can this still be called a vegetable, I saw it bloom in the fire just now." Song Huizong said with a trembling mouth.
Cai Jing also nodded and said, "What the big official said is that I saw it with our own eyes. β
Li Qi cried and laughed: "This is really a dish, or made of fish, I don't believe you can taste it." β
"Fish? Where in the world is there red fish? β
"Well, that pink is really a flower, a clay made from rose petals that have infested wine."
Song Huizong still refused to move the chopsticks, and said, "Then come quickly, what happened just now?" β
Li Qi smiled: "Actually, I first cut the fish into petals of different sizes, made it look like a flower, poured it from top to bottom with soup and special rose wine, and then made it into a bud shape, and then took a whole piece of chicken skin to wrap it, put it in the hot soup to soak it, take it out, and after it cooled, remove the chicken skin."
Because the fat of the chicken skin has penetrated into the flower bud, after cooling, it will stick each piece of fish together, and put it in the soup, and then pour the special wine, ignite, the fire burns, the flower bud is hot, the oil begins to melt slowly, so it slowly spreads, everyone looks, just like the flower bud blooms in the fire, because when I pour the soup, it is from top to bottom, so the innermost layer is more tender, but the fire is burned from the outside to the inside, so the outer layer is older, the same as the flower, And the taste of each layer is different. β
"I see, it scared me to death just now."
Just when everyone was stunned when they heard this, Gao Yanei suddenly appeared here.
Everyone was slightly stunned, and they all looked at Gao Yanei.
Gao Yu couldn't bear it anymore, he wanted to slap the table, and he was afraid that the emperor was here, so he could only say fiercely: "You son of a, don't let me go back." β
Gao Yanei smiled and said, "Daddy, Uncle Zhao and all the uncles and uncles came to my shop to cheer, and I have to salute them." Saying that, he saluted everyone one by one, held a cup of black night, and said: "Uncle Zhao, Uncle Cai, Uncle Gao, you can come, the little nephew is very happy, the little nephew respects you a cup, and you will come to play often in the future." As he spoke, he drank it all down.
Song Huizong said, "Okay." Kang'er's kindness, I understand it for the time being. β
"Okay, the little nephew will leave first."
Gao Yanei smiled and left in a hurry, faintly hearing him start to brag about this "fire rose" in front of Hong Tianjiu and others.
Dare to love this guy is here to eavesdrop on information.
Li Qi couldn't laugh or cry, but he wasn't afraid that this recipe would leak out, he only said a rough idea, and he didn't say what to do specifically, and others couldn't brew this high-strength wine.
Cai Jing said: "Taiwei, you say that Kang'er doesn't do his job all day long, I see that Kang'er is very well-behaved and understands etiquette." β
Song Huizong also nodded and said, "Yes, Kang'er, this kid, I like it too." β
"Where, where."
Gao Yu smiled and shook his head, his eyes still flashing with a little pride.
Zhao Kai didn't seem to pay attention to what they were saying, and said thoughtfully: "No wonder when the fire was burning, there was a strong aroma of wine, I thought that your flower should be emanating from the fish." But Li Qi, your dish is really amazing, the color, shape, and taste have reached the level of the real Cheng dΓΉ, which is breathtaking, the fire rose, a good name, this name is really good, these four words have already said the true meaning of this dish. β
Li Qi smiled and said, "Zhao Gongzi has won the award." β
"Kai'er is not an exaggeration at all."
Song Huizong shook his head and said, "I still can't believe it. Li Qi, every time I taste the dishes you make, I think it is already your ultimate, but you can still surprise me every time, it is really commendable, just with this first dish, it is not an exaggeration to call you the first chef of my Great Song Dynasty. β
Li Qi smiled and didn't speak, he was still very proud of his cooking skills.
Cai Jing also nodded in agreement, and said: "This dish is already impeccable only from the appearance, it is definitely the most wonderful and beautiful dish that the old man has ever seen, and he is drunk before he tastes it, the aroma of wine, flowers, fish, chicken, and the soup with this rich fragrance is really perfect. β
Song Huizong laughed and said: "It's not too late to taste it now, you can taste this 'Fire Rose' with me." β
"Hmm. The fish is fragrant and tender, and it is really delicious. β
"Yes, as Li Qi said, the taste of this piece of fish is really ever-changing, and it is amazing."
For this dish, the audience was full of praise.
Just as everyone was singing praises for Li Qi, Xiaoyu suddenly walked over and said, "Brother Li, the hour is almost up." β
Li Qi nodded and said, "Well, I see." Is the red slave coming? β
"It's coming, it's upstairs."
