Chapter Eighty-Six: Fish Ball Soup
[Please keep in mind the domain name of this site" ", or search in Baidu: Sanlian Literature Network] "Make fish balls!" Rui Xue thought for a moment, "Although there are only thin fish left in the fish bowl, there are a lot of them, and the fish meat is enough for us to make fish balls." ”
"But I won't!" Chen Mao was embarrassed. Although Master Wang said about fish balls, he didn't say how to do it. If he tried it rashly, there would definitely be a problem. How can he try something he has never done before?
Rui Xue smiled slightly: "I will." But you'll have to help me make dessert later. ”
Chen Mao looked around, and he hadn't heard anyone say to make desserts when he came in, and he couldn't help but be suspicious of Rui Xue's words.
Ruixue begged him, "Please." Can you help me? Well? ”
Chen Mao nodded. What else could he do but agree to Ruixue's request? Now I can only make fish balls: "Is it fried fish balls?" Like a squirrel carp, pouring sauce? ”
"Fish balls don't taste good when they are fried. Let's serve the fish ball soup. Rui Xue shook her head, "This is prepared for the Wanshou Festival, to suit the emperor's appetite, the emperor is old, and it is best to eat light." ”
"But where is there soup at the banquet, and besides, we are hot dishes, not the last course." Chen Mao also knew that this was a rehearsal for the Halloween Festival, but ......, "Besides, now it is necessary to meet the tastes of those adults that we can choose it." "The most important thing is how these adults know what the emperor's likes are, and the so-called selection criteria are their tastes.
Rui Xue said confidently: "I don't know about others, but I know the tastes of these adults today." ”
Chen Mao immediately thought that Rui Xue often followed Master Wang to various mansions for banquets, and hurriedly asked, "Then do you know what adults like to eat?" I've heard that all the people in charge are here today. I remember that the commander was very fond of eating oily dishes, and he liked Dongpo meat the most. ”
"Brother Chen, do you know what Mrs. Song often says?" Ruixue picked a small herring and said leisurely in her mouth.
Chen Mao, who was planned by Ruixue, casually continued: "What? ”
Rui Xue smiled sweetly: "Mrs. Song often says that when doing business, you are not afraid of bad goods, but you are afraid of comparing goods." In fact, this principle is the same as our cooking today. I'm not afraid that our dishes are not delicious, but I'm afraid that others will make the same dishes as us and compete with us. ”
Chen Mao was slightly stunned.
"Look. That Master Gao makes squirrel carp, and if we cook the same dish as him, we will definitely not be able to compare to him, so we can't make squirrel carp or dishes similar to squirrel carp. ”
Chen Mao's brain is still relatively bright, and when Rui Xue said this, he also understood: "Those masters are better than us, so we can't cook similar dishes with them." There is no master who makes fish balls, and no one can make soup at the banquet, so we are not afraid of being compared. ”
"That's the truth. Doing business is new, and we are also new in cooking. Those adults were already thirsty from the time they ate the cold dishes to the time we served the fish, let's have a bowl of light and delicious soup at this time, you say......"
Chen Mao listened to Ruixue's **, and couldn't help but applaud: "Being more literate than us is really different, and only you can think of it." Chen Mao couldn't help but applaud Ruixue's brilliant brain, but, "But how do you know that we are going to fish at the end?" ”
Rui Xue couldn't help but smile playfully: "Tianzihao makes cold dishes, and cold dishes are always the first to be served." Heaven and earth Xuanhuang, we make fish in the Xuanzi number, not the last or something. ”
Even noticing this detail, Chen Mao couldn't help but admire. No wonder those masters are willing to be called Ruixue, not only is she the daughter of Master Wang, but the key is that she is easier than them to pay attention to what they can't see.
Having made up his mind, Rui Xue began to slice herring fillets, while Chen Mao asked the steward guarding the door to get him some chicken soup for himself.
The steward rolled his eyes: "What do you want chicken soup for fish?" ”
"I'm going to make the soup next."
The steward sneered: "You can't make umami, and you still want to use chicken soup to make it fresh?" ”
Chen Mao explained: "No. I just make soup. ”
The steward felt more and more funny, and said to the little guy next to him: "How funny you listen." Since it's fish soup, I also need to take chicken soup. I'm not a chef and I know that there is no reason to mix and match. You're still a cook, it's funny! ”
Chen Mao's face suddenly turned red, so he had to retreat and beg for the second: "If not, can you please give some seaweed." ”
The steward waved his hand impatiently: "No, no! Don't do it soon, it's going to be your turn soon. He is not very old, and he pays attention to a lot of things. He didn't care that Chen Mao was right in front of him, and muttered and complained, "I don't know which store it is, and you have to use seaweed to make a fish." As the old saying goes, you can't do things well without hair. I'm here to see what kind of flowers I can make later. ”
Chen Mao returned to Ruixue in frustration: "I can't make fish balls." ”
Ruixue stopped the fish: "Why?" ”
"There is no chicken soup with seaweed. Let's change it! ”
Rui Xue glared at the subordinates of the Caoyun Governor's Mansion who were guarding the door. These people are really hateful, and they don't cooperate with them at all: "I'll go to them to take care of things." "She's been here with her father, and she knows the chief steward here, so as long as she tells him, she'll definitely send it.
Chen Mao grabbed Ruixue: "Don't go." We can't get out at all. ”
"Then let's make Tubu fish?" Rui Xue asked, pointing to the only one that no one had chosen. Now this is the only one that is most sufficient.
Staring at the Tubu fish that no one had chosen, Chen Mao shook his head in frustration: "How is it possible." Before we can serve it, we're going to be knocked down. I said I can't do it, I should call Master Wang. I'm going to be a shame for our Lemin Building this time. ”
Ruixue asked strangely, "Why?" Didn't Dad say that the soup made by Tubu fish is extremely delicious? ”
Chen Mao smiled bitterly and scooped up a small carp, which was the fattest one: "Nanjing people look down on Tubu fish the most." ”
"Why?" She just thought it was very strange, when she was shopping for vegetables in the past, she found that Nanjing's Tubu fish was sold very cheaply, and even then no one bought it.
"People think it looks like a tiger snake. If it is unlucky, there will be misfortune next to it. Only the poor eat it, and if I serve it, the adults will think that we despise him. ”
Rui Xue said disapprehantly: "Woe to you, what are the people from the Governor's Mansion doing when they bought this and came in?" ”
"It must have been caught with those guys."
Han Jin, who was waiting for Gao Shengfeng to shake the powder for the carp that had carved the chrysanthemum knife, took the time to look at Chen Mao, who was still selecting ingredients, and snorted mockingly.
Only Tubu fish are left, I'll see what you do! Sometimes it's a good thing to spend the money.
"If there's any, we'll make soup out of it." Rui Xue thinks that it is a good thing that there are only Tubu fish left now.
Chen Mao said worriedly: "Use it to make soup, okay?" ”
Rui Xue quickly grabbed the fat Tubu fish and handed it to Chen Mao: "Of course." You made the fish soup that day, and it tasted so good. Brother Chen, I'll leave it to you to make the fish soup. ”
Chen Mao shook his head helplessly, he could only plan to make fish soup, and after looking at Rui Xue's good fish fillet, Chen Mao's mind suddenly flashed, and he excitedly pulled Rui Xue and said: "Do you remember that Master Wang said that the best thing to taste in steamed fish is to dip it in soup instead of preparing another seasoning like others?" ”
Rui Xue nodded, she immediately understood what Chen Mao meant: "You talk about using fish soup to serve fish balls." ”
"Yes. Isn't that better than chicken soup or something? "Fish with fish broth, that's the best match. Only by eating fish and drinking fish soup can you enjoy the taste of fish.
Chen Mao was responsible for killing the Tubu fish and boiling the soup. Slice the fish fillet, remove the bones and chop the meat. Add soybean flour, lard, green onions, ginger juice and sprinkle some salt water. Stir a little.
Ruixue chopped the rest of the fish fat into the meat.
"What do you do with the swim bladder?"
Rui Xue beat the fish again and again with some difficulty: "Dad said that after the fish is pureed, it should be stirred, beaten into glue, and the fish bladder will be chopped and mixed in, and the fish meat will be more tender." ”
Chen Mao took the basin from Ruixue's hand: "I'll help you." Help me keep an eye on the fire. ”
Hitting meat and fish is a hard job, and Chen Mao, a young man, felt his arm sore and weak after dozens of consecutive strokes.
On Gao Shengfeng's side, Han Jin was in charge of frying the fish, and Gao Shengfeng prepared the soup poured on the fish. When he saw Chen Mao boiling the Tubu fish in soup, a smile finally appeared on his face. But when he saw Chen Mao playing fish, he looked at him in bewilderment, what was this going to do?
Chen Mao, who was stirring the fish puree, suddenly sighed: "I finally understand now, why didn't Master Wang teach us how to distinguish between good and bad things." ”
"Huh?" Rui Xue didn't expect that Chen Mao, who was suitable for this, would have the heart to say this, she removed her eyes from the fire and looked at Chen Mao, "What do you mean?" ”
"No matter how good things are, we can't grab them. So whatever it is, let's make the most delicious thing in our hands. Chen Mao couldn't help but laugh when he thought about the scene when Wang Jiuzhi reprimanded them that day, "Ruixue, at that time, did Master Wang already plan to let me come?" ”
Rui Xue nodded: "Dad must have thought of it, the two of us must not be able to grab others, so he didn't teach us how to choose materials." ”
Chen Mao smiled slightly, handed the stirred fish puree to Rui Xue, and watched Rui Xue rub the fish balls.
"Aren't you going to cook now?"
Chen Mao saw that almost everyone else had already stopped, and Rui Xue didn't put the fish balls into the pot, so he anxiously urged.
"Not busy. When they come, I'll go down. ”
As they spoke, there was a knock at the door, and the steward beckoned to them: "Hurry! Get ready to serve, it's your turn. ”
Rui Xue drove the meatballs into the soup, and instructed Chen Mao to put a few green vegetable leaves on the bottom of each bowl.
The small fish balls were quickly scooped up by Ruixue, divided into ten bowls, and poured over the piping hot fish broth.
"What are you doing in a daze, you go quickly!" Rui Xue pushed the stunned Chen Mao and motioned him to hurry up.
"Me? Isn't that what you did? ”
Rui Xue handed the tray to Chen Mao's hands: "How can I go, your father called you to come." It's just time to learn how to make fish balls. Just go. ”
At the urging of Rui Xue and the governor of Caoyun, Chen Mao picked up the tray and hurriedly followed.

Tubu fish: The scientific name is Shatang snakehead, also known as the soil department, soil attachment, etc., because it lies at the bottom of the water in winter and attaches to the soil. When the rape flowers bloom in spring, the fish is the most tender, and the stew is especially delicious. It is a good ingredient for replenishing qi and strengthening the body. The two small half-moon-shaped muscles on the cheeks of the head of the fish are the most tender parts of the fish's body, and Mr. Song Qingling once used these two cloves of fish to make 'snow cabbage and bean paste soup' for a banquet for Prince Sihanouk.
