Chapter 81: The Kimchi Quartet
Quietly swallowed his saliva and quickly picked up the chopsticks to eat.
Li Shuhan's movements are much more quiet and elegant, she didn't rush to eat when she got the plate, and took a few photos with her mobile phone first.
The four-compartment lace porcelain plate for kimchi is made up of four incomplete circles, with two large "S's" in the plate dividing the plate into four compartments, each containing four different kinds of kimchi.
In the upper left corner, the yellowed white radish is cut into strips, neatly stacked into a small pyramid, and a small dark red plum is placed on the top.
The cabbage leaves in the lower right corner are rolled into small buckets, and green shoots and carrots are inserted in the buckets, like small bonsai plants.
The lettuce in the upper right corner is mixed with coriander and minced garlic, and the white sesame seeds are finely sprinkled and coiled into a small mountain.
The lotus white in the lower left corner is poured with red oil layered on top of each other, and a few grains of green oily green peppercorns are adorned on it, making people salivate.
Li Shuhan sent the photos to his mother in Jiangnan Province, and after reporting his whereabouts, he couldn't resist the temptation anymore, and picked up chopsticks and began to taste without waiting for his mother to answer.
She likes heavy flavors, so she first sandwiched a piece of red oil mixed with lotus white, and couldn't wait to put it in her mouth.
This piece of lotus white was crushed under Li Shuhan's white teeth, and the salty and sour juice overflowed the tongue, and a fragrance rushed straight to the nasal cavity.
To Li Shuhan's surprise, this lotus white looks full of red oil, but it is not actually spicy, and even the hemp flavor is not strong, in addition to an unexpected fragrance, there is also a trace of sweet aftertaste, which is quite crisp and delicious.
Li Shuhan ate a few more slices one after another before turning his gaze to the cold lettuce.
Li Shuhan gently picked up a handful of shredded lettuce and sent it to his mouth, the thick smell of sesame oil and the mixed aroma of coriander and garlic immediately diffused in his mouth, which was very good with the crisp and salty lettuce, and the fried sesame seeds were also very squeaky when biting.
After chewing a few bites, Li Shuhan suddenly felt a feeling on his tongue being poured with gasoline and then lit, and the violent spicy taste appeared without warning.
The defenseless Li Shuhan hurriedly took a big sip of jasmine tea before he could be considered relieved.
She used chopsticks to flick the shredded lettuce in cold salad, and found that Fang Yu, who had a "bad heart", quietly added shredded millet pepper to it, so that this small and fresh cold salad became a ground fire to spread.
Even Li Shuhan, who has a heavy taste, has temporarily decided to switch to cabbage rolls first, and then challenge lettuce shreds later.
The taste of the cabbage rolls is finally the same, the sweet and sour juicy cabbage leaves and the salty, crisp and slightly sweet green bamboo shoots and carrots form a sharp contrast, but they cooperate intimately in the mouth, and Li Shuhan, who eats it, nods again and again.
The last thing to taste is the sour radish, the radish with a little plum aroma, sweet and sour, crisp and juicy, every bite can clearly hear the crisp sound of "squeak", not only delicious, but also enjoyable to listen to. And this sour radish is the same as the lotus white I have eaten before, and there is also a hint of obvious sweetness in the aftertaste.
Looking at the four kimchi with their own characteristics, Li Shuhan felt that in fact, another bowl of rice should be added to the menu.
Just as she was struggling with whether to suggest to Fang Yu again, the bell on the door was touched, and a new guest walked in outside.
The new guest had a phone in his hand, and he didn't look up when he came in, just standing in the doorway with his thumb pressed constantly, as if he was sending a message to someone.
Lin Xiaoxiao patiently waited for the new guest to raise his head before saying sweetly, "Welcome." ”
The new guest glanced up at Lin Xiaoxiao, and immediately showed a smile of surprise, and then lowered his head and clicked on his mobile phone, Lin Xiaoxiao had to wait patiently again.
When the guest raised his head again, Lin Xiaoxiao immediately stretched out his hand to guide him and invited him to sit inside.
The new customer took a photo of the lobby of the noodle restaurant before putting his phone in his pocket and nodding expressionlessly.
Since there are only three seats in the noodle restaurant, all of them are now seated, and the new customers walk directly to the long table in the center of the lobby.
Quietly a few of them occupied the seat in the middle of the long table, only there were vacant seats on both sides, and it happened that the seat on Li Shuhan's right was empty, and the new guest hesitated for a moment and sat next to Li Shuhan.
Li Shuhan looked at the new guest out of professional habits.
This is a man in his early thirties with a slightly tanned skin, a short-sleeved plaid shirt with slacks, and a pair of flat glasses.
Because he had just come in from the outside, his hair was wet at the ends, and there were water stains on his back, and his whole face was oily and smelled of sweat.
Because he found that Li Shuhan was looking at him, the new guest also smiled tentatively at Li Shuhan, revealing a mouthful of smoky yellowish teeth. Li Shuhan frowned, and turned the wooden board in front of him to the right in disgust, blocking the man's view.
Li Shuhan's actions surprised the new guest, but fortunately, Lin Xiaoxiao handed over a hot towel and jasmine tea, allowing him to take the opportunity to get rid of that awkward feeling.
He wiped his face with a hot towel, took a sip of jasmine tea, immediately smiled strangely, and pulled his phone out of his pocket.
Seeing that the guests might be in a state of bowing their heads and nodding again, Lin Xiaoxiao hurriedly asked, "What do you want to eat?" ”
The new guest was slightly stunned, looked at Lin Xiaoxiao, and asked, "What noodles do you have?" ”
"Our noodle restaurant focuses on soul hook noodles, forty-five yuan a serving, and clear soup dandan noodles, only fifty-five yuan..."Lin Xiaoxiao skillfully reported the menu.
"Why are the noodles here so expensive?" The new guest interrupted Lin Xiaoxiao's words in an unhappy tone.
Lin Xiaoxiao kept this smile and replied: "Each of our dishes is made with carefully selected high-quality ingredients and first-class cooking skills, which is definitely worth the price." ”
The new customer said disdainfully: "Every store has such a set of rhetoric, and there is no novelty at all." ”
"If you're skeptical about our food, why not try our signature Soul Noodles first? If you're still not satisfied, you don't have to pay. Lin Xiaoxiao calmly suggested.
"Oh, really, don't admit it for a while." The new guests were a little incredulous.
As a die-hard fan of Fangyu cuisine, Jing Jing just heard someone questioning the price of the noodle restaurant, so she pricked up her ears and paid attention. This will hear the words of the new guest, and can't help but interject:
"Don't worry, you'll be fascinated as long as you taste it once, not to mention a refund, you're willing to pay for double."
"That's... Okay, just give me a copy of this soul hook noodles. The new guest will be skeptical.
"Do you want spicy or spicy?" Lin Xiaoxiao continued to ask.
"Does it make a difference?"
"The spicy flavor is Dahongpao peppercorns, and the chili oil will be a little more, and the numbness and spiciness. The spicy flavor is green peppercorns, sesame oil, balsamic vinegar, and peanuts, sesame seeds and minced green onions are a little more, which highlights the aroma of the ingredients. ”
"Then let's have a bowl of spicy flavor first, and the chili oil can be a little more." After the new customer finished ordering, he lowered his head and clicked on his phone
Lin Xiaoxiao wrote down the guest's request and went to the back kitchen to inform Fang Yu.
Now Fang Yu's noodle making technique is becoming more and more proficient, and in less than ten minutes, the spicy soul-hooking noodles ordered by the guests are ready.
When Lin Xiaoxiao brought the noodles up, the guest was still frowning and was engrossed in clicking on his mobile phone, not even looking at the noodles.
But within a few seconds, the volatile aroma of green peppercorns was lifted by the base of sesame oil and green onions, and wisps of wisps were emitted into the surrounding air, and the guest's nose began to twitch unconsciously.
