Chapter 138: A Tempting Scent
Lin Qiao walked over and saw a young man in the small stall doing things unhurriedly behind the table, and there was a refrigerated display cabinet behind the young man, with a lot of fruits, dried fruits and other things.
It turned out to be selling desserts, Lin Qiao was a little regretful, he wanted to eat something that could fill his stomach.
However, out of the professional habits of media people, she still habitually asked:
"Hello, I'm Lin Qiao, the host of Shudu TV, is that roll-up banner yours?"
Fang Yu had already noticed Lin Qiao just now, dressed in a dignified and charming professional suit, and followed a person with a camera, who knew at a glance that it was a person from the TV station.
Fang Yu thought at first that they were here to photograph Shuxianglou and Ma Hao, after all, the food hall was the hottest stall today.
But I didn't expect Lin Qiao to go to Ma Hao's booth, but came over to talk to him. As soon as he opened his mouth to ask, it was Li Shuhan's roll-up banner.
Could that "secret weapon" really work?
"Yes, it's mine." Fang Yu answered Lin Qiao's question while thinking.
"Oh, that's your girlfriend up there, she's so pretty." Seeing that Fang Yu admitted it, Lin Qiao immediately became interested and deliberately set a small trap in his words.
"Girlfriend?" Fang Yu listened to it, and then hurriedly denied it: "No, no, it's just my friend, because I came to the exhibition, I asked her to do a favor by the way." ”
Hearing Fang Yu's answer, Lin Qiao was a little disappointed, but she found that Fang Yu's hand behind the counter kept moving, as if it was stirring something.
She couldn't help but say: "Your stall is so strange, it just says 'Breeze Xulai', and it doesn't say that it sells anything, even if it is to make desserts, there must be a menu." ”
Fang Yu replied with a smile: "I'm not making desserts, I'm selling staple food." ”
"Staples? I see that all the fruits and dried fruits are placed behind you, and you don't have a wok, oil smoke or anything like that. Lin Qiao asked curiously.
"This staple of mine doesn't need to be fried, it's cold."
"Cold staples?" Lin Qiao, who used to work on the variety channel, still has some research on food, "Is it like Koryo cold noodles?" ”
Fang Yu glanced at Lin Qiao with some surprise, he didn't expect her brain to turn so fast, she was worthy of being the host.
"It's different, I cook meals, especially in the summer heat."
"Oh, that's... Can you bring me one" Lin Qiao hesitated for a moment and decided to try it.
At this time, the cameraman came over and said to Lin Qiao:
"Sister Lin, Brother Tong said to Shuxianglou over there, and after Chef Ma is busy with this wave in a while, he will be interviewed by us."
The cameraman glanced at Fang Yu and whispered:
"Brother Tong said, Shuxianglou has prepared a cold pot fish for us, and asked you to go over together."
Although the cameraman's voice was small, he could hear it clearly with Fang Yu's hearing.
His heart moved, and he slightly withdrew a little bit of the Yuan Force that he had covered on the pot.
A refreshing and sweet aroma emerges from behind the high dining table.
Lin Qiao listened to the cameraman's words, gave Fang Yu an apologetic smile, and stood up to say goodbye, but just happened to bump into the first wisp of fragrance that came out.
The wisp of fragrance was soft, but it was very tempting, it seemed to awaken the instinctive desire for food in the human body, and as soon as it smelled it, every cell of Lin Qiao made a cry of "want to eat".
The words of farewell immediately turned into a longing request:
"It's so fragrant, what is this, can you bring me one now."
"Sister Lin, Brother Tong is still waiting there." Seeing that Lin Qiao had already stood up and was about to leave, the cameraman suddenly sat down again and couldn't help but remind.
"Don't worry, you can sit down and smell this."
"What, Sister Lin, what else can you smell here besides the fragrance of cold pot fish... Dao..."
As the cameraman was talking, he smelled an indescribably good smell, which seemed to be a little like rice fragrance, but it was more moist, and just smelling it made the base of his tongue sweet and saliva gushing out.
Before he knew it, the cameraman was also sitting in front of Fang Yu's counter.
Fang Yu smiled knowingly, when he was cooking the purified glutinous rice just now, he carefully used Yuan Force to block the leakage of this fragrance, just to know how attractive the aroma of this ingredient is to people.
Originally, I discussed the idea with Miso that I would use these special ingredients to make my meal from the beginning. The kind of aroma that can awaken the appetite will definitely attract all the guests and make Shuxiang Lou unattended.
But after eavesdropping on the conversation between Du Changfeng and Ma Hao, Fang Yu deliberately concealed the secret of his ingredients, kept his hole cards, and waited for Du Ma and the two to make a move before giving them a "surprise".
After listening to the cameraman's words just now, Fang Yu combined with the previous conversation between Du Changfeng and Ma Hao, Fang Yu probably guessed their plan.
Ma Hao said that he wanted to abuse himself, which was nothing more than embarrassing himself through the exhibition, and the people from these TV stations were probably the pawns of Ma Hao and Du Changfeng.
Now that he had guessed Ma Hao's means, Fang Yu naturally wouldn't let him succeed, and directly opened the corner of the hole card and left the two behind.
Looking at the longing on the faces of the two, Fang Yu smiled and said:
"You don't know what I'm making and want to eat, maybe not necessarily to your taste?"
"No, it smells so good, it must be delicious." Without waiting for Lin Qiao to speak, the cameraman preemptively spoke.
"Well, you're my first wave of guests today, so I'll give you a taste of my craft."
Fang Yu smiled and nodded, covered the freshly cooked glutinous rice and simmered, then took out a handful of soaked soybeans, put them in the automatic cooking machine and pressed a few buttons.
Then Fang Yu took out two specially made disposable lunch boxes with round and wide mouths.
In the refrigerated display case, there was already a pot of glutinous rice that had been boiled and chilled after being beaten, and Fang Yu filled one of the bowls with a large spoon with a wooden spoon.
Then Fang Yu pointed to the small bamboo sign above the refrigerated cabinet and said to the cameraman:
"You can choose what you want to add."
"I want raisins, honey red beans, mangoes, and peanuts." The videographer shouted impatiently.
What is that taro ball? The videographer ordered the ingredients he wanted to add, and suddenly saw one that he had never seen before.
Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that no one in this world had invented taro balls.
For more than a month, Fang Yu continued to fuse Dao Nian with the help of Wei Zhen, because the two worlds are strikingly similar in history except for some things related to cooking, so sometimes some things are confused.
"Taro balls are small dumplings made with taro and sweet potato flour or cassava, and they have a good taste." Fang Yu explained to the cameraman.
"Okay, I'll add another taro ball."
"Well, you wait a minute." Fang Yu turned around and began to add ingredients to the cameraman's meal.
Lin Qiao didn't ask himself when he saw Fang Yu, he was a little anxious, obviously I came first, why did this young man ask the cameraman first?
Even if it's not in order, isn't there still a lady first?
Could it be that the charm of this big beauty is not as strong as that cameraman with a wicked smile...
Isn't this guy a GAY?
Lin Qiao's eyes when he looked at Fang Yu changed slightly.
Hey, I'm thinking about strange things again, what does it matter to me about the orientation of other young men, the emperor is big when he eats, so it's important to hurry up and order food for himself.
Lin Qiao put away his thoughts and said to Fang Yu: "My rice with watermelon, kiwifruit, banana, mango, and that taro ball will also give me a copy." ”
Fang Yu replied without raising his head in his hand: "You don't need to order, your share is special." ”
Tailor-made?
Lin Qiao was pleasantly surprised when he heard this, and thought a little proudly: I knew that I wouldn't be so unattractive, this is a normal development.
Well, this little brother still knows how to please girls, and he actually has the trick of making special meals, but he looks younger than me, is it the legendary royal sister control?
Fang Yu didn't know what Lin Qiao had imagined him in his heart, but he carefully put the condiments selected by the cameraman on the glutinous rice one by one, and finally poured the sauce, and the unique summer staple food was served to the cameraman.
This plate of rice decorated with different colors of condiments and three-color taro balls is beautiful and makes people appetize.
Such a beautiful meal further stimulated Lin Qiao's appetite, she swallowed her saliva and stared at the cameraman, watching him pick up the disposable spoon given by Fang Yu, and prepare to start happily.
Suddenly, I heard someone behind me say in a displeased tone:
"Why did you get here, I've been waiting for you. You're fine, hiding here and eating. ”
Lin Qiao looked back and saw that it was the male colleague who proposed to taste the cold pot fish just now, Niu Tong.
The cameraman took the spoon and said with some embarrassment: "Brother Tong, I'm sorry, the things here are so fragrant, I can't help but want to taste them." ”
At this time, Fang Yu had already covered the pot where the glutinous rice was cooking, so the tempting aroma could not be smelled.
Niu Tong sniffed it and said impatiently: "Fragrant, what is the fragrance here besides the fragrance of the cold pot fish." Hurry up and follow me, the people from Shuxianglou have already prepared a table of things for us, and Chef Ma has also made us a big pot of cold pot fish. ”
Lin Qiao glanced at Fang Yu, this young man was taking ingredients from the refrigerator, as if he hadn't heard Niu Tong's voice.
The cameraman couldn't help but give up, and said to Niu Tong with a shy face:
"Brother Tong, you see that people have brought everything, it's inappropriate not to eat, it's too disrespectful to the chef. I'll just take a bite, Brother Tong, I'll take a bite and taste it, you can see it. ”
Looking at the cameraman's appearance, Niu Tong said helplessly: "Okay, okay, you kid is gluttonous, you hurry up." Lin Qiao, come with me first. ”
Lin Qiao was still thinking about the special meal that Fang Yu said, but now he couldn't tolerate other things in his heart, plus Niu Tong was a little unkind when he spoke, and he was not happy, so he deliberately said lazily:
"Oh, Brother Tong, I'm a little uncomfortable, I'm weak, I want to rest again, you go first, I'll come later."
"Lin Qiao, you..."Niu Tong was a little unhappy, although Lin Qiao's qualifications were not as old as him, he was currently a popular star on the news station, and he was not qualified to force her to do anything, so he had to say helplessly:
"Okay, I'll go over and talk to the people in Shuxiang Mansion first, you really have to hurry, otherwise Chef Ma may not have time to wait for us later."
Niu Tong was about to leave after speaking, and suddenly smelled a fragrance completely different from that of cold pot fish.
The aroma is thick and mellow, like a giant ship of smell, breaking through the sea of hot and spicy fish peppers in the cold pot.
Niu Tong's hurried pace couldn't help but pause.
