As the logistics of the entire team, Ergou is absolutely impeccable in terms of liaison and material supply. After a few phone calls, I made an appointment to pick up the goods after lunch, and the location was not even in the fish market, but in a fairly high-grade restaurant near the market!

"Okay," Ergou shook his phone at Hao Dong, "I'll just say that you don't have to worry about the ingredients, we can still have afternoon tea when we go back." ”

Hao Dong was amused by his words: "If you are full of afternoon tea, you won't be able to eat a big meal in the evening." ”

Ergou immediately looked serious: "Actually, the afternoon tea here doesn't taste very good, and I guess I can't eat it." Hey, let's stop talking nonsense, what are you going to cook? Let's write it down, and we'll get back to prepare the materials as needed. ”

It's a serious matter, and the menu involves how much material they're going to take in a while, and it's definitely not going to be sloppy!

There are four of them in total, the queen and Qi Jue went to check the information, even if Director Xie had the intention to invite another guest, according to the queen's temper, he should not accept it again. They must have dealt with it casually at noon if they needed to spend a lot of time; If it doesn't take too much time, then come back at noon to meet Hao Dong and them, and then still deal with it casually, and discuss the results of the information by the way.

Judging from the current time, it is more likely that the queen will stay in the museum, so it is necessary to make dinner a little more abundantly.

"Generally, boat dishes need to have four to six cold dishes, double-spelled or single products, which are used to taste tea when guests are waiting for dishes, but we don't need to pay attention to these when we eat them ourselves." Hao Dong first omitted the cold dishes, without these small plates, he could eat more hot dishes.

Ergou agrees with this: "Let's just eat a meal at a reasonable price!" ”

As a result, Hao Dong remembered something else: "Ah, you can make honey and red dates, and there is also cold shredded radish to relieve greasy." He could already see that Xiao Qi Ye was silent, and he killed most of the pots of dates alone.

Ergou had no opinion, so he wrote down these two things first: "But these two things have to be bought in the vegetable market, and the aquatic product boss does not provide them." ”

Hao Dong looked at the content he wrote and reminded him: "There are also dried lilies, which can be used in red dates." Is there a food emporium here? If you have it, you can buy it all at once. ”

Ergou nodded: "This is there, there is a dry goods wholesale market behind the small goods, and there are still a lot of these things in the town." ”

Since dry goods and ordinary vegetables are mentioned, Hao Dong simply listed the meat that will not be available in the aquatic market, but also needs it: "Although the main dishes of the boat are all kinds of river fresh food and poultry, ordinary poultry meat is still needed, such as lotus leaf steamed pork needs fresh pork." If you have eight treasure duck and watermelon chicken, it is still eight treasure duck, right? Oh yes, if you want to buy ducks, you can buy some duck paws and quail eggs by the way, which can be used as palm pearls. ”

Hao Dong is unconsciously listed, Ergou is a standard listener with a heart, seeing that Harazi is about to hang down the corners of his mouth, it is easy to hold back and not let himself be ugly, he stopped his pen and stood up, and pushed Hao Dong out of the door:

"Let's find a place to have lunch, and talk while eating. I can figure it out now, the chef thinks about how to eat every day, how can a chef not be fat at the moment! ”

Hao Dong was amused by what he said, and he didn't bother to argue with him, so he continued to prepare the menu all the way: "There are only a few of our own people, and we can't eat them all if we cook too much, and the few ordinary meat dishes should be enough." However, even if it is to make aquatic products, it also needs side dishes, and this must also be listed, otherwise there will definitely be omissions in the future. ”

Because there was a big meal in the evening, Ergou was not picky about this meal at noon, so he shouted two big bowls of beef noodles with the roadside noodle restaurant. Hearing Hao Dong say that he still had to side dishes, he didn't care about eating the noodles, so he immediately continued to take out a pen and paper to note: "You said." ”

Hao Dong sorted out his thoughts before starting to report to the outside world: "Just talking about the side dishes will be chaotic, I'll start from the beginning, right?" ”

In the Taihu Lake Basin, the most famous dish in the late spring and early summer is the Taihu Lake Three Whites: white fish, whitebait, and white shrimp. In addition, other kinds of fish, snails, snails, lettuce, callus white, water chestnut, lotus seeds, lotus roots, etc. are also fresh and delicious.

Of course, the most famous here are hairy crabs, whether it is Taihu Lake crab or the nearby Yangcheng Lake hairy crab, which is famous for its delicacy at home and abroad. But this is not right, now, there is only crab roe from foreign crabs.

Considering the situation in the team, even if Ergou eats everything, he may not really be picky about the taste of the dish; Not to mention the queen and Qi Jue, although the insects can be swallowed when there are no conditions, but when there are conditions, they will pick the best ones as much as possible. Then there's no need to taste anything that tastes average.

However, although there is a lack of crab, the content of the dish itself will not be reduced because of this.

First of all, white shrimp can be made into drunk shrimp, which is a must-have dish.

Taihu white shrimp is commonly known as crystal shrimp, although it also has the name of white shrimp, but it is not the same as the ordinary concept of white shrimp, and the taste is also different. Drunk shrimp and delicious shrimp can completely make meat-loving people not even eat the hooves in front of them.

Some people may think that drunken shrimp is eating live shrimp, which is cruel, but in fact, this cannot be compared with things like eating monkey brains raw in the south. Because shrimp itself is not a higher organism, it cannot be measured by the standards of higher mammals.

Drunken shrimp is a cooking method of eating shrimp after being drunk, and the drunk shrimp have no vitality and no pain, which is actually the same as eating sashimi.

Of course, this dish has the same problem that eating sashimi can cause: parasites. Therefore, the selection of shrimp, the hygiene requirements in the process, and the configuration of seasonings, etc., are actually very high in all aspects.

The second is whitebait, which is relatively simple and classic, whitebait scrambled eggs.

In fact, the distribution of whitebait in the country is relatively wide, but the Taihu Lake whitebait in the Taihu Lake basin is a must.

This kind of whitebait is very small, mostly between two and three centimeters, and the body of the fish is transparent, and it looks like a fry at a rough look. When it dies when it leaves the water, the color of the body will change from transparent and shiny silver in the water to white. When eating, you don't need to treat it like ordinary fish, you can cook it directly by washing the surface.

There are also whitebait fish that grow up to five or six centimeters in length, but most of them are not the same species.

The larger ones can spit out the vertebrae and taste slightly worse. And when the authentic small whitebait eats it, it even has its head and tail, and it can't spit out anything, and it can eat a lot of it in one bite, and it is full of sweetness.

The last white of the three whites is the white fish, which looks more like an ordinary fish. It looks like an anchovy, and locals sometimes confuse the two types of fish.

This is also not a hassle, it is steamed directly.

These three white foods are all original, and the more clear the soup, the more they can taste their unique flavor.

Ergou wrote down all these things, and wrote "side dishes: eggs" at the end, and the cooking materials were going to be bought together with the borrowed kitchen, and when he looked up, he was stunned.

Hao Dong followed his gaze and was also stunned. How could little Qi Ye be there?

Qi Jue also saw them, and naturally crossed the road, arrived at the table of the two, and sat down: "Qin Lin asked me to come back first." ”

Ergou wondered: "You don't check the information?" ”

Qi Jue shook his head: "She's checking, only one person is allowed to go in there." ”

Hao Dong didn't quite understand what was going on here, but Ergou frowned a little: "Just a town's archives, what are the confidential information?" Even the head of the local police station only has enough authority to let one person in? ”

Obviously, Qi absolutely didn't have an answer to this, so he didn't answer either, and after asking for a bowl of beef noodles with the little girl who came to order, he was completely silent.

Ergou was still puzzled, and at the same time looked at the direction Qi Jue came over: "Where is the archive?" ”

Qi Jue nodded: "At the end of the alley." ”

After a pause, he added, "Come back in the evening." ”

So Hao Dong came to his senses, and the queen was obviously very dissatisfied with not showing this, but her decision was not to start a confrontation head-on, but to plan to find out the situation by herself first, and if necessary, to come secretly at night.

Ergou was still sighing, but Qi Jue noticed his small notebook, dragged it to his front to study it, and said two words: "Go on." ”

Hao Dong couldn't help but glance at him more, and then was surprised to find that the corners of Qi Jue's mouth seemed to be a little upturned! So the foodie in Xiao Qiye's body was really seduced by himself and woke up?!

Ergou's dominant foodie physique was not synchronized with Hao Dong this time, and he didn't leave him time to be surprised at all, so he went on directly: "Yes, yes, yes!" Anyway, we have to take care of ourselves! Come on, let's go ahead and hit the menu. ”

Hao Dong had an urge to hold his forehead for a moment, and at the same time inexplicably felt a sense of guilt for the queen: don't let his appearance disrupt the rhythm of the entire expedition in the end. What's going on with this tendency to put eating above business?!

But nothing could stop the kind of pressure caused by the two pairs of hopeful eyes staring at him—yes, even Qi Jue showed a shining gaze from under the brim of his hat, obviously thinking about the meal they were planning!

Hao Dong had to continue: "At this time, you can fry snails or snails, what do you want to eat?" ”

This time, Xiao Qi Ye and Ergou were simply enlightened, and opened their mouths at the same time:

"The snail is big!"

"Snail fresh."

Hao Dong looked at Ergou, then looked at Qi Jue, and decisively rejected Ergou's proposal: "If you want to buy a snail, it's best to buy it and raise it for two or three days before doing it, otherwise you will have a muddy stomach." It's still a snail. ”

Not unexpectedly, the curvature of the corners of Xiao Qiye's mouth was deeper, and Hao Dong suddenly felt that the roots of his ears were a little hot.

The second dog who was hit was depressed: "Then you didn't say it earlier!" Let's also pick. ”

Hao Dong's eyes wandered, and he diverted the topic: "At this time, Ulva is also on the market, and there is also pond carp, and if you make soup, you can make a Ulva fish soup." ”

Ergou's attention was smoothly diverted: "Soup...... Soup, let's talk about meat dishes first, the previous ones are basically served with eggs, and lotus leaf steamed pork has to be lotus leaves and powder, right? What kind of powder is that? Flour? No, flour doesn't taste like that. ”

Hao Dong shook his head: "It's not flour, this one needs rice star anise and five-spice powder." The flour is rice flour that has been fried with rice and spices and then broken, and it is impossible to make that texture with flour. ”

Ergou buried his head in the record, but it could be seen from his slightly rolling Adam's apple that Hao Dong's details showed that he was hungry again.
