Chapter 102: Five Flavors
"These are these!?" Zhi Xinping felt that he might have heard it wrong, "Could it be that this dragon title jade has to be divided into several parts before it can be released?"
Miaofeng also looked at Fu Hao, wanting to hear the reason for his guess.
Fu Hao shook his head lightly and said, "It's not that the dragon rank jade is divided into several parts, it is just the opposite, it is so many parts that can form the dragon rank jade." ”
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be a must-have experience in tasting the 'Dragon Rank Jade'. You see, these plates, orderly in size, separate from front to back, the closer to us, the smaller they are. It should be that we taste the past along its arrangement, and the final plate is the essence of 'Dragon Rank Jade'. ”
Zhi Xinping understood, and said, "What Brother Fu said is very reasonable," and then looked at Miaofeng and asked, "I don't know if I guessed correctly?"
Miao Feng nodded happily: "Fu Gongzi has quick thinking and great intelligence, for so many years, there are very few people who can see through the secrets of our eight plates at a glance." ”
She looked at the eight plates and said, "Indeed, these eight plates, or eight dishes, are all set for the dragon rank jade. And as Fu Gongzi said, what is placed on the eighth plate is the most important thing. ”
Miao Feng walked towards the table first, followed by Fu Hao and Zhi Xinping.
Miao Feng lifted the first plate to cover it, and a sour smell greeted her.
Although Fu Hao smelled a little bit before, he still felt a little strong in the face of this strong sourness.
Zhi Xinping was even more exaggerated, directly covered his nose, and shouted: "Miss Miaofeng, although we have been waiting for a long time and are a little hungry, you can't pour a bottle of vinegar to satisfy our hunger, right?"
Miao Feng smiled and said, "Don't be impatient, don't be impatient, you take a closer look at the things on this plate first." ”
Fu Hao endured the sour taste, looked at it fixedly, and saw that there was a mountain on the plate.
To be precise, it is a pastry made in the shape of a small mountain, this pastry is as green as jade, and the texture of the mountain stone is clear, which makes people marvel at the chef's exquisite knife skills.
Fu Hao was quite surprised to smell this sour smell carefully and found something different.
As a gourmet, Fu Hao also has studied various seasonings and sauces, and the sour taste can stimulate people's appetite and make people appetite, so eating a few sour fruits before roasting chicken is also a good pairing.
"This sour taste-" Fu Hao had some aftertaste on his face, "Could it be a green irise?"
Miaofeng glanced at Fu Hao in surprise: "I didn't expect Fu Gongzi to have a good knowledge of ingredients, which makes Miaofeng even more admired!"
Zhi Xinping was confused: "Green iris, what is it?"
Miao Feng explained: "As the name suggests, this green hawthorn is a type of hawthorn, and it is named because of the tall shape of the tree, and there is often a green kite nesting on it. Green iris hawthorn is green whether it is ripe or not, and it is different from the general hawthorn, it has always been extremely sour, especially the small fruit that has just grown out of half a month is the most sour, known as 'a bite of three autumns', which means that you can not feel any other taste except sour taste for three years after you take a bite. ”
"And our first 'green mountain' is made of green iris with 'one bite and three autumns'. ”
"Hiss-" Zhi Xinping swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "I said Miss Miaofeng, it's not like you deliberately manipulating us." We want to taste the dragon jade, but we don't want to lose our teeth!"
Miaofeng smiled: "This is the only way to taste the 'Dragon Rank Jade', why, don't you dare to know the son?"
"I'm afraid, but I'm not afraid," Zhi Xinping looked sad, he knew that it would be so troublesome to eat this dragon rank jade, so he didn't take the initiative to ask for it, if he retreated now, wouldn't it make people laugh, "What does Brother Fu think?"
Fu Hao couldn't guess Zhixinping's thoughts, but he had eaten this green hawthorn before, although it was indeed very sour, but after experiencing it, he had a certain psychological preparation. So I'm not so scared of green iris either.
"Since eating green iris is a necessity for tasting dragon rank jade, let's take a bite, this experience is rare!"
Fu Hao stepped forward, gently picked up the corner of "Cuishan" with chopsticks, and put it in his mouth in Zhi Xinping's stunned.
"It's so sour!" This is Fu Hao's first feeling, the name of "one bite of three autumns" is really not false, this sour smell spreads, the whole person is like soaking in a vinegar vat, and even breathing is a sour smell.
Fu Hao closed his eyes and chewed carefully, the soft taste of the green iris began to gradually reflect, after this baptism of sourness, he suddenly felt that all the miscellaneous tastes were gone, and the wine he had just drunk was also left behind, as if his internal organs had been washed again.
Zhi Xinping looked at Fu Hao's face of enjoyment, and asked curiously: "How is it, is it sour?"
Fu Hao opened his eyes and exclaimed: "It's really a different flavor! As for whether it is sour or not-" Fu Hao took advantage of the opportunity for Zhixinping to come forward, picked up a piece and threw it into his mouth, "You can taste it yourself!"
Zhi Xinping didn't react for a while, and by the time he was swept away by this sourness, it was already too late.
I saw that his face turned from white to red, from red to green, and he jumped up and ran around the house in an instant.
"I want water, where is it?"
Fu Hao and Miaofeng laughed.
Fu Hao no longer cares about the crazy Zhi Xinping, because he knows that there will be something else to reconcile this sourness, otherwise how can he achieve the reputation of the dragon rank jade with just a "green mountain" made of green iris?
Sure enough, Miao Feng had lifted the cover of the second plate.
Fu Hao took a light step, and there was a taste of soup on this second plate.
The soup is bright and viscous, fragrant, and Fu Hao felt a burst of sweet fragrance when he smelled it, and the sour taste just now was also diluted a lot.
Miaofeng said with a smile: "This second course, called 'Honey River', as Fu Gongzi saw, is a soup, which is made of Xinjiang pear juice, which can solve the sour of green iris hawthorn!"
Fu Hao raised his eyebrows: "Is it the Xinjiang pear that 'the fruit is the most in Xinjiang, and the fruit is the most in the pear'?"
Miao Feng looked at Fu Hao with a little surprise, but she didn't expect the latter to be so knowledgeable: "Exactly." ”
Fu Hao lightly scooped half a spoonful and began to taste. As soon as you enter it, you will feel rich and sweet, expelling all the sour taste of Fangcai, and leaving a fragrance on your teeth and cheeks.
Fu Hao nodded in satisfaction, although the sweetness was also strong, it was much better than the sourness.
Turning his head to look at Zhi Xinping, who was looking for water, he said, "Brother Zhi, there is water here, which can relieve the sour taste." ”
Zhixinping swooped over and hurriedly asked, "Where, where?"
Then without waiting for Fu Hao to tell him, he saw the plate of pear soup, scooped a big spoonful directly, and drank it.
"Ahh
Fu Hao smiled and said: "This is Xinjiang pear soup, you taste it carefully, is the previous sour taste gone?"
Zhi Xinping smacked his lips: "Really, could it be that this is one thing and one thing?"
As she spoke, Miaofeng had already unveiled the third dish.
The third dish is also a soup, but the difference is that there is a green bamboo snake gall in the soup, and the soup name is "Bitter Moon".
The fourth dish is more direct, and does not do anything to deal with it, but directly puts the fire pepper, called "Flame Mountain".
The fifth dish is actually a kind of sea treasure, shaped like a stone, the size of a dragon's eye, and Miaofeng introduces it as "sea flavor".
These five dishes are arranged according to sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty, and each dish uses the ultimate of this taste, and the world's flavors are born.
After Fu Hao and Zhi Xinping tasted these five flavors, they already felt numb on the tip of their tongues, and Zhi Xinping jumped high for each taste.
Fu Hao looked at the remaining three plates, except for the last one, there were still two left.
"I've already tasted the sweet, sour, spicy and salty, what's next?"
With some anticipation in his heart, Miaofeng slowly lifted the cover of the sixth dish.
