Chapter 106: Nicole the Winemaker

During the period of Song Rui and Abel's 'duel', Rand communicated with Carly again, and finally got this vigilant, suspicious and venomous girl to agree to take them to Nicole's house.

"I don't know why, I feel more tired than handling 10,000 adhesive leeks!" Rand wrote on a clipboard.

Bonded leeks are a perennial herb of the lily family, a special cooking ingredient. The sap inside it contains a special sticky substance that will immediately bond the wound back to its original shape once it is cut, and cannot be completely cut without being cut hundreds of times at a time. However, if you cut it indiscriminately by brute force, it will hurt the fiber and make the taste bitter and inedible. Therefore, it is a 'special cooking ingredient' that requires patience and accurate knife work to make a good cut.

Rand would exclaim that he really didn't have anything to do with the slender and wary child.

"It's hard work, let's eat first! It's okay to leave one for Abel, and the two of them are estimated to have to fight for a while. Tao Ran smiled, "Would Carly want to come some?" Would you like to try a croquette? ”

Tao Ran said this, filled two croquettes on a plate, put a few slices of baked tofu, and put some sauce on a small plate next to it, and handed it to Carly.

Carly looked at Tao Ran's smiling face, glanced at Rand again, and saw that Rand nodded slightly, and actually thanked Tao Ran, "Thank you, then I'm welcome." ”

"Hmm, it's delicious!" Carly first ate a very attractive appearance and taste of the croquettes, the appearance is golden, the slightly coarse breadcrumbs mixed with the egg wash are fried golden and attractive, the inside is soft and juicy mashed potatoes mixed with meat filling, because of the shrimp, there is a strong fragrance in addition to a stream of fresh fragrance, the taste is rich, Carly squinted her eyes when she ate, and her expression finally changed from vigilance to relaxation.

"That's great!" Tao Ran replied with a smile, "If you like it, you can eat more, there are many more here." ”

"Sister, you are such a good person!" Carly is a typical mother, all vigilance succumbed to food, and she seemed to find herself so undisciplined, and weakly added, "Although the hair is a little weird......

Tao Ran didn't think it was a pestle, he was still smiling, if Song Rui was evaluated like this...... It is estimated that he will only jump on his feet, 'How did such a poisonous tongue grow up to be so big?' I guess I should have been beaten to death a hundred times when I was in the second grade of elementary school! ’

Anyway, this meal can be regarded as a happy meal, at least little Carly is very happy to eat, and her favorability towards Tao Ran has finally risen from negative.

"Sister Nicole is on the other side of the mountain, aren't you really bad people?" Carly is still very wary of people other than Rand and Tao Ran, especially Song Rui.

Song Rui's upper and lower teeth moved slightly, and he was just about to speak, but Tao Ran discovered his intention in time, "Don't talk!" If the favorability is negative, no matter how many zeros you swipe, it will only be more negative! It's impossible to be negative, you have to die of this heart! ”

Song Rui almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, "I really don't have anything to say!" ”

"Well, I don't know if it's my delusion, but there's a smell of wine in the air, it's very light and light, but it smells good." Abel suddenly sniffed into the air, "Is it a delusion?" Or is it because I just had a drink? ”

"It's not a delusion, the alcohol concentration in the air has been around 10 ppm since two minutes ago, and it's gradually increasing as we move forward." Song Rui nodded, his expression looking quite professional and reliable.

"......" Abel was stunned by this neat pretend for a while, and it took a while to react, "Isn't this TM the standard for drunk driving?!" ”

"But it smells really good!" Tao Ran's sense of smell is also quite sensitive, "Different from what we drink, this wine has a stronger aroma, a stronger wine flavor, and a hint of undetectable heaviness...... It seems that Carly is right, Nicole is indeed quite a powerful winemaker. ”

Carly was happy, "Carly won't lie, Sister Nicole's wine is very, very good!" ”

"Aren't you a cook?" Song Rui was puzzled, "The captain said that her daughter is a cook. ”

"It's a cook, didn't Carly just say that Nicole cooks deliciously, but she should specialize in wine-related cuisine, and there are some such things." Tao Ran explained.

"Can it be? I don't think you and Rand usually have a direction to specialize in. ”

"We are not in a hurry to determine the direction we want to take, after all, we have just come out of the experience, and our understanding of ingredients has not yet reached that level...... But there are branches of chefs, but it's not very obvious, and there are no hard and fast rules. Tao Ran said, "For example, the king of curry, Damarascaine 13, has a deep understanding of curry cuisine that no one can match; Yoda, a master of medicinal diets, specializes in various medicinal diets; Poison Cuisine Tailan is a sword that goes off the rails, and is quite insightful in the theory of poisonous materials. ”

"But Nicole has her own specialization?" Song Rui clasped her arms in her hands, "Could it be that her understanding of cooking has reached that height?" ”

"There is this possibility, after all, the world is big, and the most important thing is genius." Tao Ran smiled, "Of course, it's also possible, her wine and food are family heirlooms, and this kind of thing is not unusual." ”

"There are so many kinds of chefs!" Song Rui sighed.

"Yes, that's right!"

"Now, the little house in front is it!" Just over the hillside in front of her, Carly ran to the top of the hill and pointed to a house road.

Everyone was shocked, ran two steps, caught up with Carly, and sure enough, found that there was a house in the middle of the hillside, with the mountain and water in its back, built against the mountain, the main gate facing the sun, surrounded by green plants, and it looked quite fresh and elegant.

"It doesn't look like it's that serious!" Song Rui said, "There is a big gap with what I imagined. ”

"Well...... Let's check it out first! Able beckoned, and Carly had sped up towards Nicole's house.

Approaching the house on the mountainside, the aroma of wine in the air became more and more intense, and Song Rui and the others also secretly swallowed their saliva, and their hearts were even more looking forward to it!

"The house is surrounded by ingredients related to sake brewing, and many of them take many years to mature...... Tao Ran observed the environment around the house.

"That is, most likely family heirloom?" Song Rui reacted immediately.

"Yes, it's very likely! However, just by smelling the wine, I also know that Nicole, even if it is a family heirloom, has become a very powerful winemaker! Tao Ran nodded and said solemnly.

"What's the deal with your look when you meet a strong opponent?" Song Rui caught a glimpse of Tao Ran's expression and spit out.
