Because Lizhang, who is the best at cooking, traveled, the responsibility of today's dinner was placed on Chu Tao.

Chu Tao returned to the Xianjun Mansion from Aunt Fang Ruo, and was about to prepare for the evening's meal, when Yin Li suddenly had some other interest.

"Anyway, no one in the house came today, let's go to the beach together, mortals have a poem 'the moon is born on the sea', we don't know how many times we have admired the moon in this mountain, let's go to the beach today." ”

So he took three disciples, one disciple, and a lovely little beast in his arms to the edge of the South China Sea.

During the day, the weather was clear and cloudless, and the sea and the sky were extremely pure blue, and they stepped on the sand, with the salty sea breeze blowing on their faces, and at their feet were the waves that rushed up layer after layer, leaving white foam as they receded.

Yin Li took out a small boat model from his sleeve, threw the boat model into the seawater, and when it encountered water, it grew into a beautiful painting boat, carved beams and painted buildings, all of which were not detailed.

Because Ruofeng wanted to prepare the tea tonight on the boat, Shen Hua also had to be patient and show his flower arrangement.

The two went to arrange themselves, and Chu Tao took them to find ingredients together.

Only Yin Li, holding a scroll in his hand, leaning on the recliner at the bow of the boat, lying on his body, looking at the sea from time to time, looking at the sea, so uncomfortable.

The sea breeze made him feel tired, and he closed his eyes slightly and took a nap.

It's the first time that I don't rely on Youmei like a dream, and my mood is rarely relaxed.

In his dream, he walked into a dense forest, with ancient trees towering to the sky, extremely mysterious, and not at all the appearance of the deep mountains.

In the dense forest, there were many strange flowers and plants that he had never seen, and he was enjoying such a beautiful scenery, when suddenly a woman's voice sounded behind him.

"Who are you?"

The voice was crisp, with a hint of innocence, and a little defensive.

He turned his head and saw a white elephant much taller than him, and his gaze moved up, a woman dressed in red, holding a long whip, riding on top of the elephant, leaning forward slightly, very vigilant.

When he wanted to look again, a thick white mist suddenly rose in front of him, and he couldn't see the woman's appearance clearly.

I was about to use my sleeves to dispel the fog, but it was dark in front of me, and there was a dense forest, and where were the women?

He woke up from the dream and recalled again that he had only seen the figure of the woman on the white elephant, but he couldn't see her appearance, but in his heart, he faintly felt a little familiar.

The warm sunset light sprinkled on him, the chirping of seabirds returning to their nests sounded in the distance, the fragrance of tea had already diffused, it turned out to be dusk, he brushed away the little melancholy in his heart, but he felt a little lacking in interest.

Ruo Feng saw his master walk in with an expressionless face, and hurriedly saluted a cup of Pu'er.

This Pu'er is the fruit of the ancient tea tree he found in the red soil at an altitude of more than 1,000 meters, and he took it back and fermented it for a hundred years before he got this ripe Pu'er tea with a full and firm head.

On weekdays, he is not good, but today he said that he would take it out.

He chose a purple clay pot with a full belly, carefully controlled the temperature and rhythm to wash the Pu'er first, poured boiling water, and first soaked the teacup with the first brew, so that the teacup had the mellow fragrance of the tea leaves, and the second brew was boiled, and the brown and red tea soup with the pure tea fragrance floated all over the painting boat.

Looking at the long table in front of him, Shen Hua has already taken local materials, found some flowers and plants unique to the seaside, and matched them with extremely simple stoneware bottles, and the flower branches have not been pruned more, completely restoring the natural wild interest.

I don't know where he found a coarse linen tablecloth, such a match, but it is natural and pleasing to the eye.

In the sky outside the carved window, a faint moon shadow had appeared, and at this time, Chu Tao also led the prepared meal up.

"Today's dinner is all based on local materials. In the early years, I followed Qingsong to the beach for a banquet, and it was quite interesting to see a few dishes, and today I learned to make it, although it is not as delicious as the second senior brother, everyone should also have a good time. ”

Chu Tao said to everyone with a smile on his face, he hadn't been so relaxed for a long time, and with the elegance created by this tea and flowers, he was in a particularly good mood when he was in it.

"Try the dessert first," Chu Tao said, placing the small white porcelain plate in front of everyone with Bu Qi, and then placing a small amphora soup cup in everyone's hands.

The three cubes of desserts on the white porcelain plate are piled up in the shape of finished words, without a trace of heat, and the white skin is wrapped in orange and yellow things, and the color is clear.

In this dry autumn time, I feel a little cool at first glance.

Ruofeng was the most gluttonous, and when he saw that his master had started, he hurriedly grabbed one, "Hmm, the bread in it is the flesh of mango!"

He chewed carefully, only to feel that his mouth was full of fruity fragrance, and Yin Li nodded slightly above.

He had just drunk a mellow Pu'er, and now this fruity little dessert was sent into his mouth, the original full of tea flavor was wrapped in freshness, and the slight bitterness of the tea also neutralized the sweetness of the flesh, and the combination of the two tastes was indescribably just right.

Ruofeng smashed his mouth, put another one into his mouth, and after swallowing it, he asked Chu Tao again, "But what is the outer layer of bread?"

This is Chu Tao is putting a small bowl with a lid next to everyone, and he glanced at him with a smile when he heard this, "Senior Brother Ruofeng can't guess it? What about Senior Brother? What about Senior Brother San?

"I know it as a teacher", Yin Li also replied with a smile, and asked her after Chu Tao sat down, "But is it made of coconut water?"

"Wow, Shizun is well-informed!" Chu Tao hurriedly sent a sycophant, and then explained: "This dessert is called 'Mango Rice Noodles', which is modeled after the rice rolls in Baiyue, but the rice milk and meat are replaced with coconut milk and mango flesh, which is more in line with the flavor of this seaside!"

Coconut is a unique fruit in the South China Sea, the juice in it is sweet, I poured out the coconut water, dug up the coconut flesh, mixed it with milk, and filtered the residue with fine gauze.

Add fish gelatin, mix it into a fine pulp, steam it into a thin layer, soak it in cold water, and then wrap it in the flesh of the mango, and this plate is ready. ”

"Well, this mango and coconut are both specialties here, and when combined like this, it does have a seaside flavor. ”

Shen Hua didn't like sweetness very much, so he only used one, so he went to open the soup cup, only to see that there was a brown shell in the soup cup, and he glanced at Chu Tao inquiringly.

"This is coconut chicken soup, I found several small coconuts, blanched the chicken, and then boiled it with coconut milk.

After cooking, they are poured into the coconut while it is hot, and the aroma of the coconut meat is also aroused.

This coconut has gone to the green shell, this is what it looks like, third senior brother, I cut the shell on it, you can open it and eat it. ”

Shen Hua opened the coconut shell, and another sweet aroma wafted out.
