After helping Zhao Jinmai choose fish gelatin, Li Yi walked around the market again, bought an idle fish tank and oxygen equipment at a stall, and divided into two ways at the entrance of the seafood market.

Li Yi called a special car and went to the flower market.

Huang Xiaoming and the rest of the people returned to the restaurant with the seafood, fish gelatin and fish tank.

The dishes of [Beauty Banquet] are cumbersome, no less than any table banquet that Li Yi has ever done before, and even surpass.

In order to cope with the pressure of the official opening tomorrow, Li Yi has to take everyone to make all the preparations.

Time was pressing, after Li Yi arrived at the flower market, he asked the driver to wait at the door, and he went directly into the market and went straight to the store where he bought flowers last time.

It's still the proprietress who watches the store, and she even recognizes Li Yi.

When she saw Li Yi come in, she greeted her with a smile and asked, "Oh?" Young man, you're here again? Why didn't you bring your wife and sister-in-law with you this time? ”

"Wife and sister-in-law?"

Li Yi was stunned for a moment before waving his hand and saying, "That's my friend." ”

"Yes, friend."

The proprietress responded with a smile and asked, "How many roses are you going to buy this time?" ”

Li Yi shook his head: "I won't buy roses this time." ”

"Don't buy roses?"

The proprietress was also stunned, and asked suspiciously: "Tomorrow is the Chinese Valentine's Day, if you don't buy roses, what do you want to buy?" ”

"I want peonies, about two hundred are enough."

Li Yi thought for a while and added, "Forget it, let's have three hundred!" ”

"Peony?"

The proprietress was confused: "Why do you buy peonies for the Qixi Festival?" ”

"Ah~! Peony~! The most vivid among the flowers~! ”

The boss who was squatting in the corner and trimming the legs of the chair suddenly came to his throat.

The proprietress was startled, turned her head and scolded: "Neurotic! What song do you sing when you're idle? ”

The boss closed his mouth and continued to bow his head and trim the leg of his chair.

"I want peonies, three hundred, please hurry up, I'm in a hurry."

Li Yi glanced at the time on his phone and urged.

"Okay, Peony, huh? I'm going to pack it. ”

There is business to do, and the proprietress naturally has no opinion.

She turned around and went into the shed, and after a while, she helped Li Yi prepare three hundred freshly blooming peony flowers and put them in three large baskets.

After paying, Li Yi returned to the market with a basket of peony flowers.

The boss was sent by the proprietress to help, pulled a small cart, and helped Li Yi send the remaining two baskets out and load them into the car together.

With three hundred blooming peony flowers, Li Yi returned to the restaurant.

In the restaurant, Huang Xiaoming had already taken a few people to install the fish tank.

Huang Xiaoming and Wu Lei were mixing water into several large basins, and there were fish, shrimp and crabs airlifted in the small basins on the side, adapting to the water quality.

As a child born in a coastal city, Huang Xiaoming still knows a lot about fish farming, Li Yi saw this, so he didn't do much, just called Liu Yifei and Zhao Jinmai to the kitchen and instructed them: "You pick off the petals of these peony flowers, to ensure that they are intact and unharmed, and each petal must be put together, don't mix." ”

"Picking flowers again?"

Zhao Jinmai was puzzled and asked: "Do you still want to make rouge?" ”

"It's not."

Li Yi casually explained: "These petals are used as molds. ”

"Mold?"

Zhao Jinmai was even more curious: "Is it a mold for cooking?" What are you going to cook? ”

"[National color and heavenly fragrance]."

"The country is beautiful and fragrant?"

Zhao Jinmai's eyes widened, and he subconsciously glanced at Liu Yifei on the side, and suddenly showed a playful smile.

Liu Yifei didn't say anything, just looked at Li Yi and asked, "So many petals are used in this dish?" ”

"That's right."

Li Yi explained: "This is a kung fu soup dish, which is made of transparent peony flowers from broth, and when the soup is served, you only need to put the peony flowers into the water, and the peony flowers will melt, so that the water will become a bowl of delicious broth." ”

Listening to Li Yi's description, Zhao Jinmai and Liu Yifei were stunned.

Not only were they stunned, but after the audience in the live broadcast room listened to it, they were full of questions.

"How can there be such a soup? No way! When pigs fly! ”

"It's imaginary, right? How is this possible? ”

"Is it a trick to make transparent peony flowers with dashi and then put them in clean water to make dashi?"

"Brother Yi blew too much this time, right? Is this kind of dish something that people can make? ”

The audience is questioning the barrage, Zhao Jinmai didn't watch the barrage, but he was also full of doubts.

"Brother Yi, are you serious?"

She looked at Li Yi's expression hesitantly, trying to make sure if Li Yi was joking: "Is this soup real?" ”

"Of course."

Li Yi smiled: "We're going to make this kind of soup this time!" ”

"But... How is this possible? ”

Zhao Jinmai was puzzled: "Using soup to make peony flowers, is the soup made into jelly, and then carved out?" ”

"That's half right."

Li Yi took out his mobile phone, looked at the time, and said: "I don't have time to explain to you, you first prepare all the petals for me according to what I said, and the petals of each flower must be taken off and put away." ”

As he spoke, he took two pots, added some salt to them, stirred the water well, made light salt water, handed it to Zhao Jinmai and the others, and instructed: "After the petals are plucked, go through them in this salt water and clean them before they can be used." ”

"Oh, got it."

Zhao Jinmai nodded with doubts.

Seeing this, Li Yi turned around and went to the storage room with satisfaction.

Seeing him leave, Zhao Jinmai took out all the peony flowers in the basket with the help of Liu Yifei.

Putting on disposable gloves, she tried to pluck a few petals, washed them in salt water, and then took a tray and set it up in the tray.

After washing one, she finally couldn't help it, and asked Liu Yifei, who was also picking petals, "Sister Yifei, have you ever heard of using broth to make flowers?" Is this really possible? ”

"How could it be?"

Liu Yifei said with a smile while picking the petals: "You told me that Brother Yi can stuff crab roe into eggs and make Qiankun eggs, don't I believe it?"

Brother Yi has never lied to us, since he said that he can do it, then he will definitely be able to do it, let's do the work he gave us, and when he starts to do it, we will naturally be clear. ”

Hearing her say this, Zhao Jinmai thought about it and nodded: "That's what I said." ”

She thought about it here, and she might not be able to figure out how Li Yi used soup to make flowers.

It's better to pick the petals early, hand them over to Li Yi, and see with your own eyes what he does.

It's just that in the face of the unknown, all her thoughts are still on the soup flowers that Li Yi said.

Make flowers out of soup? How is this possible?

What exactly will he do?

Just when Zhao Jinmai was thinking about the production method of the soup flower, Li Yi had already taken out the Australian dragon, blue crab, sea cucumber, abalone and other materials bought in the seafood market, took them to the kitchen, and carefully cleaned them.

Then, after stir-frying the ingredients, he threw them into the soup bucket, added water and simmered over the fire.

If you want to make flowers out of soup, the key is soup.
