Chapter 374: Unpalatable

Pei Maodian then smiled: "If she knew that someone liked to eat this kumquat as much as her, she would definitely be very happy, and she would definitely take it out for you to eat, this time it was just me who took the lead." ”

"Besides, I'm guarding the old head here, I'll let him make some when I go back, don't give it back to me, if you give it back to me, I'm afraid she'll be angry."

Pei Maodian was talking, and even deliberately pursed his lips, pretending to be angry.

Seeing Pei Maodian say this, Xie Yinan reluctantly accepted the kumquat and said, "Then I'm not welcome, I accepted it with a cheeky face, and the old man turned around to help me thank my mother-in-law." ”

"Okay, okay." Pei Maodian laughed again. The three of them chatted here for a while, and Pei An came over: "Old lady, the rice is ready, I made another celery peanut rice, spicy fried lotus root, and a green vegetable tofu soup, do you want to set up the rice at this time?" ”

"Swing, just put it in the yard." Pei Maodian spoke.

Hangzhou in spring, warm and warm, full of spring, a few pots of spring flowers in the yard have also bloomed, eat in the yard, enjoy the warm sunshine, look at the excellent flowers, can be described as an excellent enjoyment.

"Yes." Pei An went to set up the meal on the stone table in the courtyard, and after it was cleaned up, he invited them to eat.

"You must be hungry, come and eat." Pei Maodian led Song Leshan and Xie Yinan to sit down, and took chopsticks to the two of them, and each of them added a piece of Dongpo meat to the bowl: "Taste it, how about tasting it." ”

Dongpo meat is a special dish of Hangzhou, half-lean and half-fat pork, stacked into neat mahjong pieces, burned crispy, red and translucent, the color is like agate, just look at it, it makes people feel salivating.

However, it tastes soft but not rotten, fat but not greasy, and has a rich taste, which can be described as crispy and fragrant.

The soup associated with the Dongpo meat is poured on top of the rice, and the soaked rice has a rich meat taste, and it tastes very fragrant.

Dongpo pork with rice is an excellent pairing.

"It's delicious." This is the heartfelt emotion of Song Leshan and Xie Yinan.

"yes." Pei Maodian, who heard this, could be described as proud: "It tastes good." ”

"It's not just good, don't tell you the old man, it's the first time I've eaten such delicious Dongpo meat." Song Leshan did not hesitate to praise himself and smiled.

"That's for sure." Pei Maodian raised his chin proudly: "It's not my mother-in-law who sells melons, this Dongpo meat, in the entire city of Hangzhou, there is no one who can make it better than me!" ”

"I have been studying this recipe and method for decades, and it has been completely completed in the past two years, and the Dongpo meat I make will definitely be able to enter the dining room in the palace."

"I've thought about it, if the emperor wants to try my craft one day, I'll go to the palace to cook this dish for him, but this dish really can't be made in vain, and then he has to give me a word and praise my craft."

After Pei Maodian made a joke here, he put the sweet and sour fish into Song Leshan and Xie Yinan's bowls: "You also try this?" ”

With Fang Cai's delicious Dongpo meat and jade in front, Xie Yinan and Song Leshan are full of expectations for this sweet and sour fish.

Sweet and sour fish, pay attention to the beautiful shape, the image is realistic, the color is golden, the outside is charred and the inside is tender, the sweet and sour is buckled, and the meat is delicious, so that it can be called the top grade.

And the sweet and sour fish in front of me is indeed golden in color, the image is realistic, and it looks like it is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and it smells sweet and sour.

But as soon as the sweet and sour fish was eaten, Xie Yinan and Song Leshan suddenly frowned, and even glanced at each other.

This fish, how to say it, is really ...... Bad!

The ratio of sweet and sour is not well mastered, the sour taste is too heavy, and the amount of salt seems to be a little more, even this fish tastes a little fishy, and the fish is too old, and it tastes completely tender and delicious as the fish should be......

In short, it tastes like chewing wax and is difficult to swallow.

"How does this fish taste?"

Pei Maodian was still anxious to ask them about the results.

"This fish ......" Song Leshan suddenly made a difficulty.

If you say it's delicious, it's really against your will, but if you say it's not delicious, looking at Pei Maodian's eyes full of expectations and even on his face, he really can't say it.

"This fish...... How can I say it, the taste is very special......" Song Leshan hesitated to give such an evaluation after weighing it for a long time.

"Special?" Pei Maodian pursed his lips: "You didn't say whether it was delicious or not." ”

"Old lady." Pei An, who was waiting for everyone to eat, couldn't help it, and said, "Aren't you embarrassed by the shopkeeper Song, when did the fish you make be delicious?" ”

"Don't worry about the two, the old lady's skills in making Dongpo meat are indeed good, but the old lady has been doing it for so many years, and the Manchu Communist Party has come out with such a decent dish, and there is no more on the side, and the old lady still likes to eat fish very much, just eat it, and you have to do it yourself, and don't let others teach it, so you do it by your own temperament, and the fish that is made is like this."

"If you really can't eat this fish, don't eat it, there's still a fish over there, how about I give you a fillet?"

"Just talk to you!" Pei Maodian stretched out his hand and gave Pei An a burst chestnut: "When is my sweet and sour fish not delicious?" You just want to show off that your fish fillet is better than mine, right? ”

"This time in front of the guests, I won't say anything about you, you also hurry up and go to sneak a fish fillet, and I'll clean you up when I'm free another day!"

This was obviously a laughing and scolding, and Pei An didn't care about it, he just smiled and went to the stove room.

Immediately after, the sound of kitchen knives came out.

"This kid just wants to show off that his fish fillets are delicious, and he still talks so much, really." Pei Maodian was quite annoyed that his sweet and sour fish was not popular, but he still asked Song Leshan and Xie Yinan with a serious face: "This sweet and sour fish is really so unpalatable?" ”

Song Leshan and Xie Yinan glanced at each other, and then nodded in unison.

It's not generally unpalatable.

"I thought I could create a sweet and sour fish with a different flavor, but now it seems that it can't be done." Pei Maodian sighed and said.

He happily took out the things in his hand, but he couldn't get the approval of others, and Song Leshan knew the frustration in it, so he wanted to open his mouth to comfort him.

didn't wait for Song Leshan to speak, but Pei Maodian suddenly slapped his thigh and said: "I see, I won't make this sweet and sour fish in the future, I'll go back and try to make that bad goose, and they all say that this bad goose is also a bad dish, so I'll make this." ”
