Chapter 232: A Coincidence of Taste
She was amazed when the woman scooped up the fluffy little crucian carp from under the stall.
Although this one-foot-long little crucian carp has died, its whole body looks very fresh, and you can even clearly see the capillary lines inside.
The woman suddenly realized.
It turned out that the little crucian carp that disappeared that day actually ran into this old jar of salt water.
As for how it jumped, the woman recalled that it should have been when the child was crying, and she went back to the house to coax the child, and the crucian carp, which was not dead, jumped into the pile of greens next to the cutting board.
After the woman came back after coaxing the child, she did not find the crucian carp.
Now that I think about it, the crucian carp must have jumped into the pile of greens on the ground at that time, and then got all of them into the jar.
It's amazing that the fish's body hasn't broken down at all for such a long time.
The woman thought for a moment, and then leaned her nose over the small fish and sniffed it.
Suddenly, a strange fragrance came out of the little fish's body.
Only then did the woman understand that it was no wonder that the shredded meat she made before had a unique taste, which turned out to be derived from this small crucian carp.
Thinking of this, the woman suddenly took out a pickled chili pepper from the stall and chewed it.
The taste of pickled chili peppers is sour and spicy, with a strong fishy smell.
The fishy smell is actually very smelly and unpleasant, but when the woman eats it, the fishy smell is combined with Shushuang, which is very amazing.
The next day, the woman made a few more dishes with this kimchi, and the taste was also different from before.
Especially the "hot and sour eggplant".
The eggplant cut into strips is scalded with boiling oil, and then fried with various kimchi until the taste comes out, and you can smell a strong fragrance from a distance of 100 meters.
Women call this fragrance "fish fragrance".
Later, she went to the street with the man to set up a stall, and people were impressed by the smell.
Gradually, the family's life is getting better and better.
Next, the taste of "fish flavor" has also begun to gradually become popular in the food industry. The practice of a live crucian carp thrown alive into a kimchi jar is a bit too cruel.
Later, it was discovered that the taste of maltose cubes in salt water was not much different from that of live crucian carp.
Although the practice of kimchi has been changed, the taste has little effect.
So the previous cruel methods were canceled, but the name of "Yuxiang" was retained.
After listening to Chen Yufei talk about the origin of "fish fragrance", Yin Xiaoyue and Xiao Xiaomei seemed to have their eyes opened, they heard the origin of "fish fragrance" for the first time, and they just thought it was very strange before, but a sweet and sour thing, why can it be called "fish fragrance", and obviously there is no fish in it, and even fish scales can't be seen.
Yin Xiaoyue sighed:
"It seems that too many delicious things in this world are all obtained because of coincidence."
Chen Yufei nodded:
"Actually, the creation of this world was originally a coincidence."
"That's right, it's a coincidence that this chili pepper and Sichuan pepper are combined to form a spicy flavor, it is a coincidence that sugar and balsamic vinegar are combined to form a sweet and sour flavor, and it is also a coincidence that Sichuan pepper and salt are combined to form a pepper and salt flavor...... These coincidences just happened to be discovered by the cook. ”
"So, as long as you use your heart to discover, there are still many flavors in this world that have not been discovered."
"We still need to work on it."
"Yes!"
……
This slightly philosophical conversation caused Xiao Xiaomei, who was sitting opposite, to applaud suddenly: "Wow, you two are talking now, just like the people on TV, who said that our chefs are uneducated, I don't think so!" ”
The fish-flavored crayfish was actually the best tasting one of all the crayfish ordered that night.
The three of them grabbed the shrimp and sucked the soup on it with their mouths.
The aroma of the fish flows into the shrimp yolk, and it is very satisfying to suck it into the mouth.
Although they had already eaten dinner, Yin Xiaoyue and Chen Yufei still ate a bunch of crayfish in one go, and soon there were already a bunch of red shells in front of the two.
Taking a sip of frozen Coke, Yin Xiaoyue felt very comfortable.
She looked at the guests at the tables around her, and she finally understood why everyone would come to eat crayfish at night, it turned out that happiness is really that simple.
The stall was huge, with a simple shed on it.
Although there are a lot of people, the air inside is still very circulating, a huge air cooler, in the middle of the stall, spraying water droplets in all directions, the diffuse mist hitting the people's body, it doesn't feel stuffy at all.
Yin Xiaoyue looked at those people who were eating crayfish, some were laughing, some were spitting and talking, and some were drinking with their fists, in short, they were looking for their own happiness, which was very lively.
Yin Xiaoyue plans to go back, and she also tries to make crayfish in "coarse tea and light rice".
A "fishy" taste is a must.
But she may not be able to make this flavor, imitate it, add some tomato or something, maybe she can make another flavor.
After Yin Xiaoyue settled down like this, she was about to turn back.
Just then, she saw an acquaintance.
That person was none other than Lao Mo.
At this moment, Lao Mo was wearing the suit and uniform of the White Dragon Pool Management Office, and was sitting at a table next to the stall, and on the table in front of him, there were several bottles of beer that had been opened.
And Lao Mo, who was sitting on the stool, picked up the beer on the table and took a sip after looking around.
The beer was probably a little cold, and he shivered and put it down.
At this moment, a woman carried a pot of crayfish on the table, and then the woman sat down opposite Lao Mo, and also picked up a bottle of beer and drank it.
Yin Xiaoyue saw that the woman was Zeng Hongxia.
Seeing this, she couldn't help but laugh dumbly, Zeng Hongxia had revealed to herself before that she liked Lao Mo, and she must find a way to chase Lao Mo into her hands.
I didn't expect to act so quickly.
It seems that maybe it won't be long before I have a happy wine to drink.
I saw Zeng Hongxia pick up a crayfish and peel it, and said something to Lao Mo with a smile while peeling the shell, the expression on Lao Mo's face was obviously a little uncomfortable, but Zeng Hongxia smiled happily.
Soon, the shrimp in her hand was peeled.
Zeng Hongxia dipped the peeled crayfish meat in the soup and handed it to Lao Mo, who was stunned for a moment when he saw this and quickly waved his hand.
Seeing that the other party didn't pick up her crayfish, Zeng Hongxia deliberately made an angry expression.
When Lao Mo saw it, he reluctantly took the crayfish and ate it.
Seeing that Lao Mo received his love, Zeng Hongxia smiled happily......
