Chapter 16

Eating fire?

If you take a bite, won't your mouth be full of burns?

Xie An was confused, picked up the hairy belly and put it in his mouth.

The moment he enters his mouth, various flavors are layered on top of each other and enter his taste buds.

He closed his eyes, chewed slowly, and said, "Chicken, beef, pork, the soup stock of the three major meats is mixed, and the taste of this secret soup stock is something I have eaten in Bazhen Building." ”

After that, he chewed two more bites, and said: "The water is fresh and crisp and refreshing, and the surface grooves are embedded with soup stock, which has a rich flavor." ”

Immediately after, he opened his eyes suddenly, spit out the food in one mouthful, and inhaled one after another with his mouth open: "Water!" Water! ”

Seeing this, Liu Ming brought the cold water that had been prepared and handed it to him.

After he drank it in two sips, he eased up a little, and said, "What's the matter?" Why does it hurt so much in my mouth? ”

"Because, you swallowed the fire." Liu Ming said mysteriously: "The taste of fire, is it okay?" ”

Xie An was taken aback, and said, "Demon! How dare you poison the pot! ”

He stood up angrily, pointed at Liu Ming and said, "This black-hearted boss actually poisoned the dish!" Report to the officer! Hurry up and report to the official! ”

"Wait!"

Liu Ming also stood up, picked up chopsticks and took out a piece of hairy belly, and after a few hot strokes, he dipped the dish and stuffed it into his mouth.

In front of Xie An, he swallowed the hairy belly, and then said, "I also ate it, it's not poisonous." ”

Xie An's chest rose and fell, and after standing for a while, he suddenly wiped his head and said, "Why am I sweating?" ”

"Because, if you swallow fire, how can you swallow fire without sweating?"

Liu Ming smiled cheaply, as if an adult teasing a child.

"Swallow Fire...... Swallowing Fire ......"

Xie An kept repeating, suddenly grabbed the chopsticks, picked up a piece of hairy belly, and burned it like Liu Ming, dipped it in the saucer and stuffed it into his mouth.

This time, instead of asking for water, he closed his eyes again and tasted it.

"Spices, the amount is very small, I can't put it into words, but this fire is not intimidating, but makes people feel happy?"

Speaking of this, he opened his eyes again, looked at Liu Ming and said, "What is the reason? ”

Liu Ming made a gesture at him: "The secret recipe in the store, please forgive me for not divulging it." ”

Xie An didn't blame, but sat back, kept picking vegetables into the pot, and after a while, he was sweating profusely, snorting and panting.

Seeing this, Liu Ming shouted downstairs again: "Chef Yang, add two plates of beef!" ”

"Okay!"

Chef Yang took the beef and went upstairs with a smile.

Liu Ming sat opposite Xie An, picked up a piece of beef, put it in the pot, and said: "Xie Caoyun, beef is a thing, you have to eat it when you are born, otherwise you will be old, you see, like me, ......"

But I saw Xie An staring at Liu Ming intently, like a student listening to his master's lecture!

"Wow! Xie Caoyun is happy? ”

"Is it that delicious? Xie Caoyun? ”

"You're judging it, can you be the best?"

The foodies next to him were more and more anxious one by one, constantly urging, but Xie An didn't answer, and ate vigorously with his head buried.

After eating for a long time, he raised his head, and his face was full of smiles: "Shopkeeper Liu, this pot is indeed like swallowing fire, and it can afford the name of hot pot." ”

After that, he sighed heavily: "The delicacies are in front, but there is no wine to accompany them, it is a pity, I can only evaluate the middle grade." ”

After hearing this, Liu Ming smiled mysteriously again: "Xie Caoyun, you might drink?" ”

"Joke, the old man drinks like a sea, a thousand glasses are not poured, and the gourmets in Dongcheng know it."

Xie Caoyun was a little dissatisfied, but Liu Ming didn't care, and said: "My shop is very drunk, it's not as good as any osmanthus brew, Xie Caoyun, if you're drunk, don't blame me." ”

After that, he waved his hand again and said, "Serve the wine!" ”

"Okay!"

Chef Yang smiled happily, ran downstairs to the warehouse, took out a small jar, and hugged it with both hands.

Seeing this, Xie An turned dissatisfied and said, "Shopkeeper, you want to send me away with this little wine?" You really look down on people. ”

"It's okay, Xie Caoyun is here today, the wine is enough, but it's ......"

Liu Ming changed his words, and said in the same way as Xie An: "After drinking this altar first, I'll serve you wine if you're not drunk." ”

When Xie An heard this, he felt a little more comfortable, he picked up the jar, gently pulled out the stopper, and suddenly rushed out with a lot of energy, making him stand up in shock.

"This ...... It's ......"

When sugar is added to wine, the yeast converts the sugar into alcohol, and in the process, a large amount of carbon dioxide is released.

Strictly speaking, after seven days, you can only drink it, and to really reach the standard of wine, you have to brew it on the 21st.

However, in Liu Ming's experience, the seven-day wine, like sparkling wine, is not high, between eight and nine degrees.

But in terms of taste, it is a must.

Seeing that Xie An was afraid, Liu Ming picked up the wine jar again, poured some for himself, and drank it in one gulp: "Don't worry, it's just the secret recipe of our store." ”

Xie An hesitated for a moment, picked up the wine glass and poured a glass, closed his eyes, and poured it down.

After entering the mouth, he opened his eyes in shock: "The wine seems to be slightly sweet, but it has a bitter taste, the taste is slightly icy, and there is the feeling of a small fish biting into the mouth......"

After tasting a little, he poured another glass, took a sip, and exclaimed: "God, the feeling of this little fish biting is just enough to relieve the pain of swallowing fire, the shopkeeper, absolutely!" ”

He actually gave Liu Ming a thumbs up!

At this time, Liu Ming looked at him with a smile: "Our store, can it be rated as a good product?" ”

When Xie An heard this, he shook his head slightly, and said: "The dishes are indeed distinctive, and the wine complements each other, just talking about eating, it is indeed the best grade, but it is ......."

He swept around, and said: "The realm of catering, only the desire of the tongue, it will be completed, your store layout, and the Bazhen Building is a big difference, slightly indecent, so it can only be rated as the middle and upper." ”

These words pierced Liu Ming's heart.

He also knows that the environment in which he eats determines his mood, and his mood is the key to determining whether the meal is delicious or not.

On the table with the enemy, the delicacies of the mountains and seas are like chewing meat, eating with the lover, and the white-flour steamed buns are also delicious in the world, which is the reason.

However, at this moment, I heard the surprise of Chef Yang downstairs.

"Mr. Li, you can count it, I'm in a hurry, please upstairs, please ...... upstairs"

At this time, he saw Li Lu wearing regular clothes, walked out of the staircase, looked at Liu Ming and said, "I went to pick it up in person, but I was tired." ”

Immediately after, he moved out of the way of the staircase.

But I saw a woman, dressed in satin, walking up slowly.

Although this woman covered her face with thin veil, it was difficult to hide her beauty, and she was beautiful, and after only a few steps, she attracted the gourmets to look at it.

She walked to the middle of the round platform, bowed her knees slightly to everyone, and said, "The little woman Zhao Qianxi in Dongcheng was ordered to come and present a song on the piano." ”

After hearing this, Xie An actually lost his chopsticks, and said with a look of surprise: "The shopkeeper is amazing, Mrs. Zhao has been invited!" ”

Liu Ming looked at Li Lu gratefully, but Li Lu smiled wickedly and secretly leaned over.

"Ten taels of silver, one game."

Liu Ming gasped in shock.

She can obviously grab it, but she has to play the piano......

Woo woo, so kind.

Liu Ming's heart was dripping blood.
