Chapter 270: The Prototype of the Ideal
When Lu Cheng was knocking on the bamboo with the Mingtong True Buddha, Yang Ming and Tang Er's family had already followed Sally to this Tianzhu restaurant.
The restaurant is also very religious, but in terms of dΓ©cor and location, it is impeccable.
Although he doesn't have the grandeur of the first floor of the world in Songhe Tower, as a restaurant, it has to be said that it is not bad.
This is called a restaurant called Floating Ceylon, and as soon as you enter the door, you can smell the aroma of spices, which seem to be his soul in Tianzhu's dishes.
When Yang Ming was studying Tianzhu dishes with Zuo Gong, he did think about the wonderful use of spices.
In the culinary system of Tianzhu Kingdom, the ingredients used with spices are basically the most common meat and crops.
Among them, fish and chicken are the main meats, while potatoes, onions and carrots are more popular among the crops.
In Tianzhu Kingdom, people don't eat beef, because the cow is a sacred existence here, although I don't know where the cow is sacred......
There are many varieties of vegetables, but potatoes and carrots are more common.
Fresh leafy greens are also eaten depending on the season, but potatoes and carrots can be found here almost all year round.
The staple food of Tianzhu is also rich in varieties, whether it is wheat or rice, it is widely cultivated here.
Yang Ming and the others walked into the Floating Ceylon Restaurant and sat in a private room under the guidance of the waiter, and the daily supply of the Floating Ceylon Restaurant was very fixed.
Here, diners can only taste the food they serve, but they have little choice.
It can be seen that the chefs here are very confident in their craft.
"It's a strange restaurant to not be able to order your own food. β
"If this is in the Cloud Empire, Lao Tzu will probably have to pluck out his shopkeeper's ears. β
Tang Er is very unhappy, even if he goes to the Qinglou to play with the girl, he still has the right to choose.
After all, one person has one taste, if he says that he is not allowed to choose, and that girl can only play when she comes, he Tang Er is estimated to demolish the store for him.
It's a pity that this is in the Tianzhu Kingdom, not in the Cloud Empire.
"You can go now, I can show you the way, the boss here is a fat woman weighing more than two hundred pounds. β
"I guess you didn't even have the heart to touch her when you saw her. β
Sally really saw Tang Er's house thoroughly, that's definitely it!
He's the second head of the family, but he's a man with a habit of cleanliness! Not to mention a fat woman of more than 200 pounds, even those men don't want to be touched by him!
So, when he kills, he always wears gloves!
Except for those beautiful girls who exude the fragrance of flowers on their bodies and can be touched by him Tang Er, the rest of the people, but anyone who touches Tang Er's master.
Basically, he will give him a click......
Chop your fingers.
"Today's specialties are sea fish stew with red curry, mango rice rolls and baked wheat cakes. β
Yang Ming looked at today's features on the table and couldn't help frowning.
Fish stew with red curry may sound like a stew, but if you cook fish with plenty of spices, won't it really create a taste conflict?
Marine fish should be known for its freshness, and a large amount of spices will directly break the feeling of freshness, so that it will not taste more delicious.
It's a very bad match, could it be that this chef can really stew this fish into flowers?
Just when Yang Ming was entangled, he could already smell a very strong fragrance before he saw the dishes served.
The scent is a complex and mixed scent, within which a refreshing fruity aroma is slowly released.
"It's kind of fragrant!"
Tang Er hadn't eaten it yet, and he already had a full sense of anticipation when he smelled the taste.
That's right, the taste......
Before this Tianzhu dish is tasted, the taste alone is already addictive.
It's a whole new realm, and of course, in the Cloud Empire, there's also this kind of preemptive cooking technique with taste.
Whether steamed or roasted, it has a very strong aroma, but it is interesting to see how the stewed food has such a complex aroma.
"Dear guests, I've been waiting for you for a long time, this is Chef Arhanada's meal for you today!"
"Red curry stewed sea fish, mango rice rolls and baked wheat crackers!"
The waiter walked to the table with a huge pot, this pot was as big as Yang Ming's body, although the cauldron was covered with a lid, but the strong aroma wanted to burst out.
It's not hard to imagine how strong the aroma will be when this lid is lifted.
"Guests, are you ready, get ready to enjoy the feast of Chef Arhanada!"
The waiter opened the lid of the pot, and a rich fragrance emanated, although there was a very strong spice flavor in this aroma, but the smell of sea fish was not covered at all.
Yang Ming's nose was very sensitive, and he smelled a smell of umami unique to sea fish.
The umami seemed to be mixed with a sweet fragrance, and when he looked into the cauldron, the boiling red soup enveloped the snow-white sea fish.
A layer of rich water hangs on the fish, and this curry sauce is a must-eat treat if you pair it with the baked wheat cake!
Not only that, but there is also a sweet coconut fragrance in this red curry sauce!
"What a magical match......
Sure enough, even if Yang Ming once discussed the practice of Tianzhu cuisine with Zuo Gong, it is completely different from actually eating Tianzhu vegetables and talking on paper.
This red curry stewed sea fish made Yang Ming completely start to have a strong interest in Tianzhu cuisine!
"Okay, don't just look at it, try it. β
The waiter opened the lid and withdrew, and Sally invited Tang Ke and Yang Ming to try the dish to see if it suited their taste.
I have to say that this taste is indeed very intoxicating, Tang Er just took a bite of this sea fish, and immediately showed a look of surprise.
"The smell is amazing!"
He Tang Er has been in charge of the family for so many years, and he has also eaten a lot of good things.
However, the pot of red curry stewed sea fish in front of him has opened up a new world of taste for him!
I never thought that the taste of marine fish could be so richly layered!
The spices bring not only the deliciousness of the sea, but also the impact on the taste buds layer after layer!
When the fish enters the mouth, the first sensation is a very tender touch, and then a spicy and irritating sensation like a flame sweeps across the mouth.
Complementing this flame is a soft, lake-like sweet coconut flavor, and in the coconut flavor, there is also a refreshing mint flavor!
These things attack the taster's mouth in unison, making the taste buds on the tip of the tongue jump directly.
Like a passionate beach dance! Like a hot Tianzhu girl!
The more Tang Er's family ate, the more excited he became, and he was sweating profusely!
"No! I'll have to go find an Oiran in a moment to have some fun!"
"Damn, it doesn't matter what the prodigal son has done to turn back!"
"Lao Tzu is on fire! That must be vented, otherwise it will suffocate!"
Completely ignoring Tang Er's words, Yang Ming just savored the mystery contained in this red curry soup.
This spicy is pepper and red pepper, and this punch is curry leaves.
The sweet taste comes from the coolness of coconut milk and mint leaves.
The flavor that blends it all together......
The smell seems to be hidden, and it bears the glue between the two smells.
However, this taste gave Yang Ming a very familiar feeling.
"Pineapple juice?"
Yang Ming said with some uncertainty, he didn't taste the taste of pineapple juice, but was inspired by the fish in the sea.
Pineapple juice can neutralize the fishy smell of fish into umami, and then it can be combined with spices to have a very powerful flavor effect.
"I didn't expect you to be able to taste pineapple juice. β
Sally looked at this Yang Ming in disbelief, there have been many diners eating in Floating Ceylon over the years, and it is inevitable that some people will guess what this chef's winning weapon is.
However, they undoubtedly failed, and if Sally hadn't guessed the answer to pineapple juice, she wouldn't have known about it.
The chef of Anhanada told Sally to keep it secret, but he didn't expect Yang Ming to be able to eat it.
"No, I didn't taste it, I guessed it. β
Yang Ming was stunned, picked up a piece of baked wheat cake, dipped it in red curry sauce and put it in his mouth.
I have to say, this baked wheat cake is really speechless, and it is definitely the perfect staple dish with this red curry sauce!
The crust of the baked wheat cake is burnt and crispy, but the inside of the wheat cake is indeed soft and delicious.
In addition, this wheat cake has a very strong aroma, and it must have been smeared with animal oil and grilled!
In addition, there is a fermented aroma in the fluffy wheat cake, which seems to be a magical ingredient added to the kneading dough.
If Yang Ming didn't guess wrong, there are at least three ingredients added to this wheat cake!
Eggs, milk, and something that adds flavor to the oatmeal!
It should be, water boiled from baked spices!
Even the dough cake has that fragrant taste, which is really amazing.
"Master Tang Er, do you think this chef can be compared to the chef king of the Cloud Empire. β
Yang Ming asked, and Tang Ke was silent for a moment.
The former Eight Chef Kings, and later the Nine Chef Kings, he Tang Ke basically tasted their dishes.
Yang Ming's dishes have also been eaten by Tang Er's family.
However, these people's dishes, if compared to this red curry fish stew, are indeed missing something.
In terms of taste, the taste of this red curry stewed fish is not the most delicious dish he Tang Er has ever eaten.
However, this matching style, this free and easy cooking method, is something that the chefs of the Cloud Empire do not have!
This wantonness, this confidence, this pleasure!
Yang Ming said frankly that even if he is now, he can't make such a dish!
After tasting this dish, Yang Ming seemed to have found his ideal!
This world is too big!
He wants to experience all the delicacies in the world and incorporate them into his own dishes.
What he wants to become is the kind of person that Zuo Gong told him about at the beginning.
Gather the strengths of hundreds of schools and realize your own way!
This is his path and his ideals!
In the final analysis, what he wants to become is what Zuo Gong is looking forward to, a kitchen god who is unparalleled in the world!
"Miss Sally, I want to meet Chef Ahannada. β
