Compared with the crowd of onlookers, Admiral Li slowly commented after tasting it carefully, "Hmm! In the five flavors of numb, spicy, color, fragrant, and hot, both sides are very good, and now it seems that the two sides can be said to be equally divided! ”

"Are all the five flavors equal?" The crowd of onlookers in the distance heard Admiral Li's evaluation and said with a sigh, "The little master is really hard enough!" ”

"That's right! That is to say, the key to victory or defeat this time lies in the sixth flavor 'crisp'! ”

"So, I'll start with Shao An's mapo tofu! Taste the whole! After Admiral Li picked up the spoon and tasted it, he seemed to have noticed something, and began to pick out the tofu in Shao An's mapo tofu piece by piece!

"What does the Admiral want to do by putting the tofu on a small plate separately before commenting on the taste?" Compared with the crowd of people who were talking and all kinds of puzzles, Shao An said with admiration in his heart, "It is worthy of Admiral Li, he has already understood!" ”

Soon, Admiral Li explained the puzzlement of the onlookers with practical actions, he stacked the picked tofu neatly and neatly, and the fluffy tofu was not broken. Seeing this scene, the voices of surprise in the crowd sounded again......

"Five pieces of tofu...... Stacked on top of each other, it didn't break!! ”

"That means the texture of the tofu is quite firm!"

Faced with such a situation, Admiral Li commented, "This... The elasticity of the tofu is quite good, and the texture is also very good. And it doesn't stop there...... The treatment of your tofu beforehand is quite interesting, Shao An! ”

After speaking, Admiral Li used a spoon to cut the tofu in half, but the tofu was very completely separated and did not break due to the squeezing of the spoon.

"Yes, sir!" Shao An hugged his fists and said, "In order to make the tofu and meat play a perfect combination, I feel that the elasticity of the tofu must be connected to the meat!" Because of this, Xiao is sure that the 'crisp' in this tofu must be the sixth taste! ”

"I put the chopped tofu in the hot water of ginger ale and salt, so that not only can I remove the bean flavor of the tofu, but the salt in the water can evenly give the surface of the tofu full elasticity! And the tofu I chose is also soft and watery! After the surface of the tofu is heated and condensed, there is still plenty of moisture inside! In other words, the tofu inside is not heated, but remains cold and soft, so ......"

"While the tongue is satisfied with the heat and spiciness, you can also enjoy the crisp taste and the tenderness that follows at the same time, and the cool water that overflows after biting the tofu can neutralize the heat and protect the esophagus and stomach from being too irritating!"

After listening to Shao An's analysis, Admiral Li nodded and agreed with great satisfaction, "The highly ensemble of tofu and meat, in addition to taking into account the neutralization of heat to protect the stomach, is a very outstanding mapo tofu dish......"

Hearing Admiral Li's analysis, Shao An's eyes looked at the little master, and he smiled proudly, "Little ghost, your end has come!" ”

At the same time, in the crowd......

"It turns out that the so-called crispy is just the taste of tofu!"

"So, the winner is decided, right?"

"But then again, it's ironic that the little master lost at the hands of his mother's apprentice!"

Compared with the crowd who don't understand anything and talk nonsense, Ah Ling looks at the little master with great concern, "It turns out that the so-called crisp refers to tofu!" I don't know if the little master has thought of this! ”

After evaluating Shao An's work, Admiral Li first rinsed his mouth, and then the attendant took out the mapo tofu prepared by the little master from the plate and put it on a small plate and put it in front of Admiral Li.

"Oh! The Admiral's gargling is over, and it's time to taste the works of the little master! As soon as the words in the crowd fell, Admiral Li's next performance was beyond everyone's expectations......

"Mention... Lord Admiral!! I actually finished eating the small plate directly! ”

"And you see, he doesn't need a small plate now, he just picks up a big plate and eats it!"

"What's going on......? The Admiral didn't say a word! ”

"Oh oh...! You see, Lord Admiral just picked up the speed and ate non-stop!! ”

Soon, the mapo tofu prepared by the little master was eaten clean by Admiral Li, and in the face of this situation, the crowd let out a surprised exclamation, "What's going on!?" The Admiral ate the whole plate in one go! ”

After soothing his breath, Admiral Li took a sip of cold water and said again, "I have indeed tasted the mapo tofu of the two of you. The sixth flavor 'crisp' I asked for was successfully discovered by both of you, the crisp researched by Shao An is tofu, and the crisp researched by the little master is in another direction! ”

"Indeed, the crisp taste of the tofu created by Shao An is indeed a beautiful six-in-one masterpiece, but!" Admiral Li solemnly announced, "The crisp in the magic mapo tofu has nothing to do with tofu!" ”

Shao An looked at Admiral Li with surprise, and was very surprised in his heart, "Isn't it tofu that is crispy!" ”

"Big... My lord...! Speaking of which......" Shao An's very uneasy words were not finished before he was interrupted by Admiral Li, "You are indeed doing well, but that is not the magic mapo tofu I need!" Your handling of tofu is truly commendable! But that's not all......"

"And! Shao An! I also want to say that you are not the only one who knows how to deal with mapo tofu in China, I am afraid that there are thousands of people who know how to deal with this kind of tofu, and I tasted the mapo tofu you made two years ago! ”

Speaking of this, Admiral Li seemed to fall into memory, "It was a boy who looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, and this boy seemed to be on a trip at that time...... And I tasted the mapo tofu made by this teenager in the palace of Prince Jiang in Beijing! At that time, Prince Jiang's mother suffered from a slight stomach problem, but Prince Jiang's mother liked to eat mapo tofu very much, but she could only endure it because of stomach problems. Then, the boy brought out a mapo tofu ......"

"Could it be that ......" Hearing Admiral Li's words, Shao An was very shocked and muttered to himself, "Could it be that ... That person and I ......."

"Nope! Shao An! Although the other party is the same as you in the handling of tofu, it is more perfect in other aspects! It is a perfect mapo tofu that can completely cure all body aches! ”

Admiral Li shook his head slowly, and his tone was very nostalgic, "At that time, after eating that mapo tofu that didn't hurt my stomach, the slight arthritis I had slowly disappeared...... Not only that, but that young man's mapo tofu also cured Prince Jiang's mother's eye disease by the way......"
