Chapter 112: The Return of My Cousin (4)
Or is it true, my cousin Xu Yao and I sat at the dining table, that is, we waited for about half a minute, maybe a little longer, I waited for forty seconds? Fifty seconds? However, it was very fast anyway, and Dad came out of the kitchen with a big bowl, which contained winter melon, beef balls, and green onion soup.
To be honest, I'm a foodie who likes soup. And I usually drink soup, I only drink two kinds of soup, one is this winter melon beef ball and green onion soup, and the other is a very ordinary bowl of cucumber egg drop soup. Because, I like to eat winter melon slices, and I also like to eat egg drops. Other soups, although they may have these two things, such as tomato and egg drop soup, but it is too sour, so I don't want to eat it at all.
After all, I'm a snack and a picky eater. For example, one of the dishes I hate the most in the whole world is called sauerkraut fish. As for why, there may be many, many people who think, ah, how delicious the sauerkraut fish is, the fish is delicious, tender and delicious, and the sauerkraut is sour and refreshing, especially delicious, but I am very, very, very, very, very nasty.
Because, I haven't eaten sauerkraut since I was a child, in fact, I don't know why it's so big, anyway, I won't eat a bite of sauerkraut to death. When I don't have other dishes but sauerkraut, I'd rather starve to death, it's so extreme. And then there's the fish, in fact, when I was a kid, I ate fish, but when I was ten years old, it seems like that old, I got a fish bone stuck in my throat.
At that time, the doctor said that my gag reflex was sensitive, so I couldn't simply take out the fish bone with tweezers or something, so I was actually forced to pull out my fish bone through a medical high-tech device, called laryngoscope.
The so-called laryngoscope is really uncomfortable. A tube went through my nose, and then through the computer monitor, I saw where my fish bones were stuck, and then, through a tool I don't know what the name was, pulled out my stuck fish bones.
It was really a painful memory, an extremely painful memory that I no longer wanted to mention, so I swore to myself from that time that I would never eat fish again. You must not allow yourself to repeat the mistakes of the past, although the probability of being stuck by a fish bone is not so great. But, actually, I have a small reason, because I don't like it very much, the smell of seafood, the fishy smell of seawater, I really don't like it.
However, although there are no dishes such as fish and meat at today's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, I can guarantee that there will definitely be seafood dishes such as fish and prawns tomorrow. Because, on the second trip to RT-Mart last time, I bought fish and big green shrimp and other things.
Moreover, I also told my mother, no need to eat fish for a few years because of me, the whole family will not eat fish once in a few years, you can just eat your own. So I dare to say with a guarantee that tomorrow's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve must have a dish associated with fish.
And I believe that in this family, except for me, everyone else will eat fish and meat, and I am the only one who has been bitten by a snake and is afraid of grass ropes for ten years! After all, once a psychological shadow is left when you are young, it is not so easy to smooth it out.
The chasm of childhood, once it is dug up, is difficult to fill. That's why, in today's society, whether it is a school or a family, the serious importance of childhood education is emphasized!
It was also after this experience that I understood why those who suffered as children still cowered and did not dare to move forward when they grew up. It's because when I was young, I was oppressed by things in any way, so when I grew up, I was afraid, and they would think, what should I do if it's still the same as before?
I don't want to do so many miscellaneous things, after all, although my cousin Xu Yao had a particularly difficult life when he was a child and grew up in adversity, he was not as afraid of doing things as I said when he grew up, and he was timid! Therefore, there are also people who will come out of the predicament, of course, these all depend on their own psychological endurance.
Just like me, I only got stuck in a fish bone once, and I stopped eating fish. Therefore, I can only admit that my psychological endurance is too bad. Occasionally, when you encounter a small wind and waves, you will feel very nervous. Perhaps, this kind of endurance is also a kind of talent!
Our Chinese New Year's Eve dinner dishes are all ready, and the next time is my special session, let the snack Xia Yongning teach you how to taste a delicacy. First, I put my dishes, chopsticks, and spoons in order, and then I started eating the first dish.
This dish is a very common home-cooked dish, the dish called Kyoto sauce shredded pork. When our family makes this dish, we are very particular about it, and we don't use ordinary sauce. The sauce used to make this shredded pork in our family must be the sweet noodle sauce of the green onion companion.
Actually, I don't know why, but it does taste better than other people's sauces. As long as you have eaten our shredded pork with Beijing sauce, you can basically eat other people's dishes, and they are not as delicious as ours. Of course, there is really a hint of boasting in this.
First of all, let's talk about the surface art of this shredded pork in Beijing sauce. This dish of shredded pork in Beijing sauce is similar in appearance to other shredded pork in Beijing sauce. The top is shredded pork in sauce, the bottom is green onion white, and the bottom layer is covered with a thin layer of dried tofu.
It's just that our family's shredded pork with Beijing sauce is a little vaguely different. The difference is that our family's shredded pork with Kyoto sauce has changed a little bit from the point of view of the plating. Moreover, my dad is the kind of man who is very skillful, and he used a fruit knife to carve a little cat from a cucumber. That's really lifelike!
After reading the appearance, the next thing is the inside. I don't know, how will this dish taste? Because, usually, my father makes me shredded pork with Beijing sauce, but today, the person who cooks has changed and become my mother. Only the plating and carvings are made by my father, so I wonder if my mother's cooking skills in making this shredded pork in Beijing sauce will be higher than that of my father?
I took a small bite of shredded meat with my chopsticks, well, not bad! The taste of the sweet noodle sauce is very delicious, and the original taste of the shredded pork, sweet and salty, plus a little spicy, this is also good. I really admire my mother, the first time she made shredded pork in Kyoto sauce, she was able to make a favorite dish that people could eat.
As for the reason for the slight spiciness, it is probably that the action of plating is not so coherent! After all, it's the two of them who work together to make this big dish. Therefore, the green onion under the shredded pork is not completely cooked, so it will have a little spicy taste!
