Chapter 44: Nature
After the greetings, the guest of honor was seated and the chef was seated.
Island cuisine is very similar to Cantonese cuisine in that it respects the original taste of things, but compared to Cantonese cuisine and the freshness of the food, the choice of ingredients is often more important than that of the chef, and in order to ensure the freshness and taste of the food, kaiseki cuisine is usually made on the spot in front of the guests, and each dish is eaten freshly made.
As the founder of the all-day NO.1 kaiseki Japanese restaurant, Matsukawa Zhong's cooking skills naturally need not be said, although he is now old, but standing in front of the kitchen counter, he is still at ease, and his gestures are full of the demeanor of a master, although Lei Yaoyang can't see whether his cooking skills are awesome or not, but this posture and sense of ritual have not yet started
"Although I don't know how to eat or eat, I feel like I have a great appetite just by looking at the food itself!"
"The best ingredients are often cooked in a simple way, and you have the essence of Chinese cuisine."
Matsukawa Zhong in front of the kitchen table started the production of the first payment, Lei Yaoyang sat opposite Ding Yao and Incheon, and the mayor of Incheon said to Lei Yaoyang with a smile.
"Indeed, food itself is taken from nature and integrated into nature."
Today's Lei Yaoyang, although he doesn't know how to eat, but now his conditions and forces are sprinkling water on everything, in the past, he often listened more and talked less or only listened to nothing, but now his financial resources and power are enough to support him to no longer show timidity when talking to others.
"Oh?"
"Guest, what is naturally in your mouth?"
Matsukawa Zhong, who was cooking food for Lei Yaoyang and the mayor of Incheon on the kitchen table, couldn't help but talk to Lei Yaoyang with interest after hearing Lei Yaoyang's words.
"Chinese food has been circulating for thousands of years, and I have only heard of it, than."
Lei Yaoyang replied with a smile. @*~~
"How come I've never heard of it?"
The mayor of Incheon looked a little surprised, and he asked Matsukawa Tada.
"It's bitter spring, sour summer, sweet autumn, sweet winter and astringent."
It is steamed, fried, boiled, burned, and raw. ”
"The dirt is green spring, Zhu Xia, white autumn, Xuandong and tender yellow, heart, liver, spleen, stomach and kidney"
Matsukawa explained to the mayor of Incheon with a smile as he served dishes to the two of them.
"This is a large-flowered sea crab located in the deep sea that needs submarine material to be able to catch, its crab roe is delicious, the crab meat is tender, dipped in some mustard and soy sauce, it is definitely a rare gluttonous feast."
"Mr. Lei, Mr. Incheon, Miss Ding needs us to prepare some wine for you?"
Matsukawa Zhong put two plates of extremely exquisitely arranged dishes in front of Lei Yaoyang and the others, and then asked the two with a smile.
"Miss Ding, when Mr. Yu Lei invited the mayor of Incheon, he naturally wanted to treat him with good wine, and this time I won't bother Master Sun Chuan to accompany us for the wine, I prepared it myself in advance."
The mayor of Incheon finished speaking with a smile, and then looked at Lei Yaoyang:
"Mr. Lei, Miss Ding, can you drink some sake?"
"Yes."
Lei Yaoyang bowed slightly, and Ding Yao also nodded with a smile.
"Mr. Lei, Miss Ding, wait a minute, this wine I prepared will not disappoint you."
When the mayor of Incheon saw Lei Yaoyang's response, the smile on his face couldn't help but grow.
After speaking, he got up and walked out of the box, and when he returned to the box again, there was a rectangular golden brocade box in his hand, only to see that on this rectangular golden brocade box, there were two extremely elegant and chic big characters - Longquan!
"It's ......"
When Matsukawa saw the big characters on the golden brocade box in the hand of the mayor of Incheon, it was worth a lot of money at first glance, and it didn't look like something that a public official could take out.
"This is Ryusen Junmai Daiginjo."
The words of the mayor of Incheon confirmed what Matsukawa Tadashi wanted, and it was indeed the top wine of their island country.
"How many generations?"
"Four generations!"
"What year?"
"1970's!"
In response to Matsukawa's inquiry, the mayor of Incheon opened the golden brocade box and took out a sprinkler bottle with a narrow top and a wide bottom, and a well-sealed mouth.
"It turned out to be the fourth generation of Longquan Chun for 15 years.
Rice Daiginjo. ”
"A few distinguished guests, you have to drink more of this bottle later, it's really rare."
Matsukawa Zhong sighed slightly, and then he jokingly reminded Lei Yaoyang.
"Oh?"
"Is this fourth-generation Ryusen Junmai Daiginjo rare?"
In Hong Kong Comprehensive City, Lei Yaoyang rarely drinks alcohol, even if he wants to drink, he usually drinks foreign wine or red wine or even white wine, and sake is rarely drunk, Lei Yaoyang really doesn't know much about these little devils, so he really doesn't know much about sake Lei Yaoyang.
"Mr. Lei, Miss Ding, the fourth-generation Longquan Junmai Daiginjo has been at the top of the Wakoku for many years, and it is also the highest price of Wakuni sake in the Wakoku market, even if it is only two or three years of cellaring 720 Longsen Junmai Daiginjo, the price is often 400,000 yen, and it is usually priceless, such as Mr. Watanabe's 1800-year-old 15-year-old Ryusen Junmai Daiginjo, I'm afraid it has to be 4 million yen."
Matsukawa Zhong briefly introduced the supreme status of this wine in the hands of the mayor of Incheon in the world of the Qing Dynasty of the Japanese kingdom for Lei Yaoyang, and after listening to Matsukawa Zhong's introduction, Lei Yaoyang also roughly understood, in short, this wine of the mayor of Incheon is equivalent to Feitian Moutai in Chinese liquor or Romante Conti in Louis XIV or red wine, the outrageous existence of urban expensive.
It would be very interesting for a director to take out a bottle of such expensive wine, the economy of the island country is soaring, yes, but the salary of a public official is definitely not outrageous to such an extent, and it is like a public official to be like this, Incheon dares to do this, hehe, Lei Yaoyang looked at Ding Yao with a little smile.
It seems that his woman's hard work in the island country is indeed not in vain, Incheon is doing this to show loyalty and the possibility of cooperation in the future, cooperating with the little devil Lei Yaoyang is not afraid of his greed, he is afraid that he will not enter the oil and salt, money can make the ghost grind, and everything Lei Yaoyang paid can be doubled back.
"Mayor Incheon has brought out such good wine, it seems that we will not be drunk today."
Lei Yaoyang saw that the mayor of Incheon was skillfully opening wine, and he couldn't help but smile like this.
"Sprinkle a thousand cups of confidants, and when you meet a handsome man like Lei Ye of Hong Kong Zong, you must not get drunk and do not return. _o_m ”
The mayor of Incheon spoke very beautifully, and even quoted an ancient Chinese poem, and then he picked up the wine bottle and took the initiative to lean over and pour wine for Lei Yaoyang.
Matsukawa Zhong, who was standing in front of the stage, couldn't help but have a flash of surprise in his eyes when he saw that the mayor of Incheon actually took the initiative to pour wine for Lei Yaoyang.
"Master Lei, please!"
"Mayor Incheon, please!"
The two sides saluted each other, then raised their heads and drank the wine in the cup directly .......
