97. Big pig's trotters
"What's wrong with the cow's tongue? Don't you know, I remember one year I also asked the cook to make a dish called Zhaocai? You said it tasted good, but now I'm telling you, it's made of pork tongue. ”
If you want to say that you are not picky about food, the old lady can be said to be a positive teaching material, and after speaking, she took a piece first, but she didn't want to taste it like this, and her eyes suddenly widened, which made Meng Wei's heart skip a beat.
Before these dishes came up, she had tasted everything, and many people in the kitchen had tasted them, otherwise there would be a lot more meat, after all, there were actually only four people in the host's family, so naturally there would be a lot more, but in order to let the old lady they can taste every dish, they are not full before, so they can only reduce the portions.
Mrs. Huguohou originally heard that she had eaten pork tongue before, and she was a little nauseated, so she saw the old lady sandwiching a piece of beef tongue, you must know that men are not as meticulous as women in eating vegetables, not to mention those who were born in the common people and led the army to fight before, so the food can be described as a heap, not a piece.
Obviously, the old lady just didn't have a bottom in her heart just now, and she was thinking about it when she saw the old lady suddenly pause, and she also mentioned it in her heart.
In the morning, she also praised Meng Wei's good craftsmanship, and during this time, she listened to Meng Wei's suggestions and the meals she formulated, and she really lost some weight, so Mrs. Hou still hoped that the old lady could also be satisfied with Meng Wei's craftsmanship, after all, in this mansion, even Aunt Lin's craftsmanship was learned from Meng Wei.
"Daddy, how does it taste? Maybe this beef is like this, if this dish is not to your liking, why don't you try something else? ”
Who knew that the next moment, the old lady who was still stunned suddenly moved her mouth again, and it was rare to 'chew and swallow slowly' to taste the food that was too late to swallow.
For a while, everyone only stared at the old lady's elegant posture, and after a while, they heard the old lady swallow the things in his mouth with a 'grunt', and before the protector asked, he grabbed another chopstick, this time directly clipping a third.
Protector: Come on, he was worried just now, what's not delicious?
It's so delicious!
Huguohou, who knew his foodie father deeply, also followed a chopstick, but happened to bump into the chopsticks of his foodie son, and Huguohou couldn't help but glare: "What about the rules?" After so many years of learning in vain? ”
"What rules do you need for this family to eat? Dad, what excuse do you want to eat more? ”
Ye Zichuan was glaring at the Marquis of the Protector, and without any psychological pressure, he took out a third of it into his bowl, and finally picked out the thinnest, but it looked like the largest piece and put it in the bowl of Mrs. Huguohou: "Mother, you can also taste it, otherwise it will all go into Dad's stomach." ”
Mrs. Hou looked at the contents of the bowl, if she didn't know that this was a pig's tongue, she might just think that the piece of meat in front of her was just ordinary beef, but now that she knew what it was, she couldn't help but be a little unable to swallow.
But thinking that this was her only precious son clipping it for herself, and looking at her so expectantly, Mrs. Hou thought about it, and finally tightened her hand holding the chopsticks, picked up a piece with some trembling, and then closed her eyes and put the small piece of pig's tongue in her mouth, chewed it very quickly, and after swallowing it, she opened her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mother, what do you think of the taste?"
The food was down, but Mrs. Hou was not so disgusted, and after hearing this, she really recalled it for a while, and then said: "The flavor is unique, fragrant and delicious, and the taste of this chew is incomparable to pork, I think it is very suitable for making snacks." ”
"Indeed, I think so too, and I can use it as a side dish in the future."
Huguohou and Ye Zichuan tasted it, the taste was indeed good, Huguohou naturally sandwiched the remaining one-third, but remembered that Ye Zichuan gave his wife a piece just now, and what he got was a relieved look from his wife, so Huguohou took a beating, and also learned from Ye Zichuan, and added two pieces to her.
"Madam, since you think it's good, then eat a few more pieces, and it's okay to eat less for your husband."
Meng Wei: Men are really big pigs' trotters.
Mrs. said yes, it was just a polite word, I didn't expect the Marquis of the Protector to really believe the literal meaning, didn't you see that Mrs. Protector's face was dark?
Mrs. Huguo Hou looked at the two more pieces of beef tongue in front of her, and couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth, although the taste was indeed good, but she didn't even want to eat one more, let alone two slices
In the end, under the eager gaze of the Protector Marquis, Mrs. Protector Hou picked up the two pieces of beef tongue, turned her wrist, and put them into the Ye Zichuan bowl: "Actually, I don't like to eat very much, since you like to eat, then you can eat more." ”
"Thank you, mother."
Ye Zichuan saw that his father's face was black, but he bared his teeth, and ate the cow's tongue in one bite under the hateful gaze of the protector.
Meng Wei watched the 'little interaction' between the father and son on the side, and couldn't help but feel speechless.
Six appetizers, in addition to beef tongue, there are also beef brains that Mrs. Hou did not dare to try.
The white and tender beef brain was drizzled with a layer of chili oil, and it was appetizing at a glance, and one won the affirmation of the other two male hosts
After the appetizer is served, it is the turn of the rest of the part, in fact, compared to beef, Meng Wei prefers to eat beef water, such as beef shutters, which is commonly known as beef stomach, as well as tripe, as well as beef brisket and lungs, etc.
Because of the matter of the cow's tongue just now, Meng Wei did not introduce them one by one.
Mrs. Hou Ye ate and ate, and felt that one of the dishes tasted good, and couldn't help but point to the dish in front of her: "Xiaowei, what is this dish called?" Tastes good. ”
The old lady also nodded and thought it was delicious: "This dish is beautiful in color, tender in quality, spicy and fragrant, very palatable, I don't know which part of the cow?" ”
In the past, the old lady was in Beijing, because he had given up the position of the marquis to his son, so most of them lived in seclusion on weekdays, and the pepper in Xiangyunlou was only available in recent years, so the old lady had never tasted spicy dishes.
Although this dish is less spicy than many of the dishes made for Ye Zichuan before, the taste of fresh hemp is more prominent, and the reason is because Meng Wei sprinkled a layer of sesame seeds on top when she came out of the pot, so that she would feel a lot more fragrant when she ate it.
And the reason why this dish makes them feel good is because this dish is composed of a lot of parts of the cow.
Mrs. Hui, the name of this dish is called Husband and Wife Lung Slices.
"Husband and wife" Mrs. Hou covered her mouth halfway through speaking, a little incredulous, "This is made of cow lungs?" ”
"No, beef heart, beef scalp, tripe, beef, etc. are washed and marinated as the main ingredients, and have nothing to do with the lungs."
Old lady: "Then why is it still called this name?" I can still understand the auspicious meaning of what kind of good luck you said before, but what kind of allusions are there for this couple's lung tablets? ”
