Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Fifth Course. Mommy's hoof flower soup
Ay? The voice is...... Ginger Ash?
The moment she heard that voice, An Jie jerked up from the bed.
A slight aroma was smelled in the nose, coupled with the presence of the man.
Anjie immediately realized that someone might know that she was suffering from hunger.
So I was kind and took the initiative to make something to eat and send it over.
With this in mind, she would have thought almost without thinking about the last sentence "awake".
But when the words came to her lips, An Jie realized that she seemed to be having trouble with that man.
No, I treated him like that before, and now I'm cheeky enough to talk about food, it's too cheeky.
After gritting her teeth, An Jie had no choice but to take a deep breath, turn around and get into the quilt to cover her ears.
Not hungry, not hungry, not hungry, not hungry, sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep.
...... Okay, self-hypnosis done.
After a while, the familiar voice came from outside.
"Anjie? Asleep? ”
I fell asleep, really fell asleep, snoring and sleeping soundly.
"Whew, since you're asleep, I'll ......"
By the way, go back quickly, and don't bother me for a while, okay?
"Then I'll come in first, you're asleep anyway, you don't know I've been here, right?"
...... (⊙_⊙)?
When you find that things seem to be unfolding in a way that you couldn't have imagined.
An Jie, who was covered in the quilt, suddenly lifted the quilt and supported her waist.
When he turned his head to look, he found that Jiang Yan had already walked in with a cauldron.
"Oops, aren't you asleep? Is your sleep quality so poor? ”
When she saw the ridiculous smile on Jiang Yan's face, An Jie felt a sense of embarrassment that someone had seen through the lie.
But even so, her small mouth, which was as hard as an artifact, still muttered:
"He actually broke into the lady's room without permission, and he is really a man with no common sense."
"Hahaha, even if you are a beautiful and lovely lady, you will be hungry."
“...... Hmph~ The mouth is quite sweet. ”
When she heard Jiang Ember say that she was beautiful and cute, An Jie couldn't help but purse her lips, as if she was laughing.
However, although she was embarrassed to eat other people's things, her eyes immediately fell on the big stew pot that Jiang Ember brought over.
There is a certain aroma of meat in the saucepan, which is not so noticeable because of the lid.
There was also a large dipping bowl on top of the saucepan, with some chili, shallots, coriander, garlic and black sauce in it.
What is it? Looks like it's going to be dipped and eaten?
Seeing that An Jie seemed to be attracted by the big pot she brought.
Jiang Ember also took the opportunity to open the lid of the pot in front of her.
In the next second, a strange hot air flow instantly swept out of it, almost enveloping her whole body!
Hey? This...... This is!
It smells so good! It's the aroma of meat!
Hiss...... Ha!
After taking a deep breath of the warm current that is full of meaty fragrance and seems to be able to penetrate the whole body.
An Jie only felt that her body had become warm and very comfortable.
It was a few seconds before she could get a glimpse of what's in the pot from the dissipating heat.
Meat, indeed meat, some kind of white flower, shiny, oily and smooth, like crystal clear flesh like jade.
Next to the pretty white meat are some white beans scattered with green onions.
The meat, beans, chopped green onions, and the half-pot of somewhat sticky soup floating underneath are the whole picture of this dish.
The shape of this meat is a bit strange, but it exudes a strong meaty aroma.
The pure and charming smell of meat is like that of a muscular gorilla.
He raised his fist along the gap in the mist of the heat wave and threw a punch into An Jie's already hungry belly.
Because she was hungry for a long time, the strong aroma made her saliva secrete a lot, and the corners of her mouth almost fell on the crystal clear hala.
In addition, she already likes to eat bold chunks of meat, and she is even more hungry at this time.
Meat...... Meat...... Meat!
Chunks of meat! Delicious meat! Hmmm!
Just when An Jie almost couldn't help but want to reach out and grab it in the pot and perform a ruthless iron hand.
Jiang Yan took the first step to put the pot on the table next to him, pulled the table to the side of the bed, and handed her a pair of chopsticks.
"This dish is "Mama's Hoof Flower", please enjoy it with the dipping sauce here. ”
That's right, the dish that Jiang Ember specially made for An Jie is "Mom's Hoof Flower".
"Lao Ma Hoof Flower" is a very distinctive traditional snack in Sichuan cuisine.
It is made with pig's trotters as the main ingredient and other condiments such as kidney beans.
After the dish, the skin of the little hooves is better than snow, the shape is like flying flowers, smooth and delicate, soft and refreshing, fragrant but not greasy, beans are like cotton yarn, and the soup is fragrant.
Good guy, this big pot of hoof flowers, pig's trotters alone weigh three or four catties.
Placed in front of me with the soup pot, the impact was truly amazing.
Its texture is full, crystal clear, and juicy, and it can give people a great sense of happiness just from the appearance.
An Jie instinctively took the chopsticks and prepared to enjoy them, but seemed to hesitate a little before putting down the chopsticks.
Hoof...... Hoof flowers?
Is the hoof flower he is talking about a pig's trotter?
Can you really eat something that is dirty and smelly like pig's trotters?
People in this world don't eat pig's trotters much, let alone cook.
Anjie naturally has never tasted this kind of food, and it is somewhat difficult to swallow for a while.
But even if there is a little resistance in my heart, the aroma is too tempting.
She still couldn't help the hunger in her stomach, and picked up the chopsticks that she was gradually becoming proficient and stretched them out into the pot.
When An Jie inserted chopsticks into the skin of the huge pig's trotters slightly, she felt a jelly-soft gelatinous texture.
Pork skin, which was thought to be very hard and difficult to chew, is in such a state.
It made An Jie breathe a sigh of relief, and then the chopsticks parted it slightly and began to eat.
I don't know if I realized something, An Jie's actions of eating in front of Jiang Yan now are not as rude as before.
She tore off the pork with her chopsticks, gently put it in her mouth, and chewed it with her mouth closed.
The movements are very elegant and good-looking, demure and decent, even at the biggest banquet, it will not be rude.
If Anjie can maintain this graceful eating action, she really looks as cold and beautiful as a doll.
However, this deliberate elegance does not seem to last long.
Because when the trembling, jelly-like soft pig's trotters were sent into his mouth, An Jie's body trembled obviously.
Good...... Delicious! It's so delicious!
After being thoroughly stewed, the trotters are soft and slippery, and the inner layer is silky and supple, so you hardly need to chew it, and it will melt in your mouth with your tongue.
The soft pork skin is filled with the strong aroma of pork, leaving no unpleasant fishy smell.
The soft and lean meat wrapped under the pig's skin is even more sweet and delicious, and it tastes unstuffed and satisfying.
The most amazing thing is that there are also large pieces of tendony hoof tendons filled in it, bringing a crisp and elastic taste.
This skin, flesh, and tendon are a trinity, and the three are fused together in the mouth.
Together, they form a "pig universe" that makes An Jie want to stop, making her eat chopsticks so much.
