Chapter 270: Tasting Crabs (Part II)

The eldest Confucian stroked his long beard, took a sip of the wine in the glass, and couldn't help nodding again and again:

"Sure enough, it is a good wine, the entrance is sweet, the aroma is quiet, and the aftertaste is like lotus tip condensation, refreshing. Zongzi not only makes good tea, but this wine is also a must. ”

Childe smiled and said nothing, just raised a glass to invite, and everyone drank a few more full cups.

At this time, the second pot of hairy crab has also been served, and a plate of balsamic vinegar made with ginger and young perilla leaves is served.

Everyone knows the habit of the childe, the previous round used a female crab, and this second round must be a male crab.

The so-called ink is divided into six colors, the piano has seven tones, and there are not many things that can be eaten on the hairy crab, but the taste is good at it.

For Gongzi, he naturally likes the fat and sweet female crab roe, but the smooth and sweet male crab paste is also difficult to give up. So every time he presided over the "crab party", one male and one female were served alternately.

When the crab lid of the male crab is opened, the biggest difference between the male crab and the female crab is that the golden and shiny crab roe has turned into a snowy and crystalline crab paste.

This crab paste is already sweet and fresh directly in the mouth, it can be described as "no salt and vinegar and five flavors", if you order a little perilla ginger vinegar and have a different taste, I only feel that the umami is more prominent, and the sweetness is better than the honey sea bass.

After tasting crab paste, crab meat cannot be discarded.

Hairy crabs have crab roe, crab paste is one taste, and crab meat is another.

Although the female crab is outstanding in crab roe, in terms of crab meat, it is still the male crab that is more delicious.

And the same crab, the taste of different parts of the meat is also different:

crab claws, short and slender silk, the same taste as dried scallops; The calves are long and delicate, as beautiful as silverfish; Crab body meat, white and crystalline, better than white fish, carefully tasted, each has its own merits, all are delicious.

Everyone used male crabs, and the next person immediately brought warm water soaked in chrysanthemums and asked everyone to clean their hands to remove the fish.

The handsome Confucian boy wiped his hands and face with a hot incense towel, and said to his son:

"Zongzi, just tasting crabs is too simple, do you have other good flavors?"

Childe smiled: "I know that Zhong Alcohol will ask this question." He clapped his palms between words.

A team of pretty maids came from the courtyard and brought delicious food from their food boxes.

Everyone looked at it, but it was a product of preserved duck, a product of drunken cockles, and a steaming milk fragrance dew to relieve everyone's smell and drive away the cold.

The preserved duck is marinated and steamed with rice wine lees, sprinkled with fine ginger shreds, pieces of orange and red are fat and tender, the entrance is fat, and the salty fragrance has a slight wine aroma.

The drunken cockle is as colored as amber, mellow and refreshing, and a mouthful of cockle meat with a mouthful of sweet and fragrant "jade pot ice" makes people want to stop.

And the most enjoyable part is to drink a glass of bovine frankincense lotion.

The milk frankincense made by Childe is very different from others.

Fresh milk is milked from the cows raised by the family every day, and it is not drunk directly, but placed in a large basin at night and left to rest overnight.

The next day, a thick layer of "milk flowers" will be piled up on the surface of the milk, which is the essence of the natural condensation of milk.

Put the "milk flower" into the pot and boil over low heat, according to the ratio of one pound of milk to four cups of tea juice, add the clear juice of Lanxue tea. When it comes out of the pot, it is necessary to drip a few drops of "crane bud flower dew".

In the mouth of this kind of milk drink, there is not only the thick and luscious taste of milk, but also contains a faint tea breath and floral fragrance.

When everyone drank it, they felt that the "Daigo empowerment" was clear up and down, and then the two armpits were windy, and there was a great feeling of flying immortals against the wind.

After several rounds of crab tasting, everyone was satisfied, and with a wave of his hand, the boy removed the leftovers and served a meal, a dish and a soup.

The rice is Yuhang new rice, the grains are full, mellow and rich, the grains are crystal clear, the shape is like silver beads, the entrance is glutinous and soft, sweet but not greasy.

The dish is dried bamboo shoots in Bingkeng, made with oil, salt and sugar sauce with piperin, the color is golden red, the meat is thick and crisp and tender, the spicy fragrance is lush, it is really a good product to accompany rice.

The soup is boiled cabbage in duck juice, with fat duck hanging soup, add diced ham and broad bean rice, and cook it slowly, and the soup is bright yellow when it is ready

Select a few slices of cabbage in the center, boil them slightly in boiling water, dry them thoroughly, and then hang them on top of the broth. Blanch the soup from top to bottom until it is ripe, then put it in the broth and bring it to a boil. The cabbage floats in the soup, accompanied by a few red and white grains, as if the gold is inlaid with crystals and embedded with jade, which is beautiful.

After a meal, a dish and a soup, the next person served the new orange, Fengli, Fengling and other fruits, and served tea.

After everyone was full of wine and food, they chanted poems and talked about the world, casually opened a petal of sweet and sour orange flesh, sipped a sweet and glutinous chestnut and water chestnut, and took a sip of Lanxue fragrant tea, only to feel happy like a fairy......

Fang Yu found himself sitting in front of the center console in a trance, holding something in his hand, but there was nothing in his hand, and the round head clipper in his hand just now was missing.

Fang Yu had some conjectures in his heart, so he sank his mind into his mind. The tablet is still hanging in the middle of it, but there is one more app on the screen.

Fang Yu clicked on the app, and it turned out to be a player, with a small scissor-shaped icon listed on the right side of the player, and the words "Crab" were written on the back. It seems that this app can allow Fang Yu to relive the illusion he experienced when he realized the Holy Dao Nian.

Fang Yu guessed that the round-headed scissors just now should contain the law of "the way of taste", and now after being absorbed by the weizhen, it has stimulated a new function.

Fang Yu shook his head a little heavily, recalling the "lakeside crab tasting" he had just experienced in the Weisheng Dao Nian, and felt that he had gained a lot.

After the crab feast just now, it only used a kind of wine, a kind of tea, a milk drink, a meat dish, a vegetarian dish, a meat and vegetarian side dish, a white rice, a fresh fruit, and two dried fruits.

The ingredients used are not too rare, they are all common things in the Jiangnan area, but the feeling for Fang Yu is far better than those big hotels' sea and land meals.

It is a delicate and full-bodied feast for the senses, not only elegant, but also refined. Through the careful preparation of ordinary ingredients, they are rich and harmonious, creating a tongue-like experience that is like an ink painting, giving birth to the ultimate feeling of transcendence.

This magical technique made Fang Yu sigh and yearn for it, and made him have a deeper understanding of the "way of taste".

In the past, he only understood the "way of taste" as the mental method of cooking, and the horizontal and vertical were just to make perfect dishes according to different recipes.

Therefore, Fang Yu sometimes wonders, is Wei Sheng really enlightened the righteousness of heaven and earth and achieved the holy way through cooking?

But every time Fang Yu has an epiphany, the "Ancient Five Fowl Opera" he practiced will improve by leaps and bounds for a period of time, and the difficulties in the operation of the five elements of the Yuan Force are like divine help, which is self-evident.

After today's scene, Fang Yu vaguely understood that although the "Way of Taste" is named after "taste", it is not just a way to study cooking, but to borrow and change the five flavors, and understand the way of change in the flow of all things.

The five flavors correspond to the five elements, the five elements correspond to the five organs, and the external practice and internal cultivation are also self-cultivation.

After this realization, Fang Yu felt that his somewhat vague direction of progress was clear and clear again because of his sleep, and he was very happy in his heart.

Xing Meow: Now the results of this book are miserable, and it is about to become a stand-alone game, if it weren't for the responsibility for a few book friends who are still subscribed, I would have entered the palace to serve the Queen Mother. Starting today, I am going to enter the graduate exam revision stage, and the update will be greatly affected. But I still have a meow of discipline, as long as there is a book friend, I will stick to the end of the book, and the word is the basis. Memorize the word taken, 555....
