Chapter 122: A Feast for All Cows
Whole Cow Feast
The famous Datang cuisine.
Nowadays, the popular way of eating in restaurants is generally based on tripe gang, beef cypress leaves, and beef heart tops, which are made into different flavors of snacks, which can be accompanied by wine and supper. It can be regarded as a popular dish that everyone loves.
However, this is not authentic.
The most authentic whole cow feast, that is extremely exquisite.
Beef bones must be served with cow hooves and boiled with red dates. The tripe brisket must be served with ginger and simmered over low heat. Slice the beef leg with green onion and garlic braised with shredded beef heart and steamed with lotus seeds. After that, it goes through more than 100 complicated processes, large and small, and seasons are matched. Finally, frying, frying, stir-frying, baking, stuffing, boiling, steaming, and cooking into 7749 dishes.
This can barely be regarded as an all-cow feast.
That's right, barely counted.
The reason why I say that I am reluctant is because even if someone can complete all these processes without any mistakes. It is also likely that it will only be in form, not necessarily in God. And the god here is the essence of a dish. In the end, it depends on the craftsman who cooks the dish.
The chef of the main knife, the knife technique when cooking, the firewood and the seasoning geometry, all of this must not be sloppy. And for a big banquet like the Whole Beef Banquet, the chef's own skills are more important.
It can cook a sturdy bull into 49 table dishes in a very short meat season. This kind of craftsmanship is not something that ordinary wealthy chefs can have. Even in the big picture, under this whole world, people who can still make authentic all-cow feasts...
I'm afraid, I can count it on my fingers.
And tonight,
One of these fingers happened to be in the kitchen of Wentian. It also happened to make the most authentic whole beef feast.
"Haha! What's the matter, I'm dumbfounded, isn't it? It's full of color, flavor, and everything, and it's called authentic!"
"Little peony, what did I just say? This little liar ancestor, just deceive people and don't want capital... It's fucking boasting that it's authentic. Phew!
“......”
Inside the open-air canteen.
Two three-zhang long tables are placed opposite each other, showing distinct colors. There are forty-nine beef dishes on one table, accompanied by three jars of rice lees and old wine. It's steaming hot and fragrant. The dish is separated by an inch between the dishes, and the side dishes are carved and connected between the dishes, which are connected into a big "cow" word, and the cow is angry. Domineering, that's called a beautiful one. Just by looking at and smelling two times, you can induce people to drool and fall to the ground...
Instead, look at the other table.
"It's called authenticity?
"Bah..."
"Huh... Master Knife, don't spray, we still have to eat. ”
"What are you eating? Look, what kind of stuff is he making? I don't think it tastes good for pigs... Phew!
"Hey... I said don't hurt you too much!"
"Hey, hey... Don't you just say you're authentic?
"Knife Master..."
“......”
miserable
What a terrible word.
Three people, around four dishes of side dishes.
Compared to the other table, it was a world of difference.
However, this world of difference is also relative. These four side dishes are actually not too bad. It's just that the carving is rough, and the meat is scorched when he just forgets himself. However, if you eat it, you can still eat it, at least it has some vegetable flavor.
But...
"Master Knife, if you go away, you won't be able to eat it if you spray it again! I won't allow you to spoil the dishes we cook!"
"Don't insult our reputation as cooks... I'm aw, I'm a
"You're here to help!"
"Oh... It's coming."
“......”
Two small hands dragged a thick arm, the teeth were clenched, and the peony seemed to be pulling the fiber, dragging the knife master with all his might, and pulled it out. When Xia Xun heard this, he didn't say a word, he hurried over to help and dragged his other arm...
This is a life-and-death contest, a life-and-death moment involving those four poor dishes. Just like Peony said, if the knife master continued to work hard, he was talking endlessly at the four side dishes. Well, you really don't need to eat this dish...
"You're trying hard..."
"Uh... He's too heavy..."
"I'm ......"
"What's the drag? I'm going to keep this thing for the pigs... Phew!"
"You're supposed to feed the pigs..."
"Master Dao, if you do this again, I'm angry!"
The little mouth pursed, and he wanted to cry by taking advantage of the situation...
"Don't pout!"
"Huh... Let go, let go, I'm not laughing, right?"
This knife master is also considered to be an acquaintance, and when he saw that these two people were about to start a real fire, he saw that he was almost damaged. And he was no longer in trouble, and went down the steps.
"I didn't say that... I am not blessed with your food. If something goes wrong with eating, I still have to run to the hair pit, and I can't do this sinful thing. ”
As he spoke, the knife master shook his thick arms, and easily broke free from the shackles of the two of them. He glanced at Xia Xun with disdain, then turned around and walked towards the table full of cows.
"So, this pig food, you better taste it slowly. I eat, people should eat..."
injure
True damage.
The first thing the knife master did after he sat down was to uncover the old beef bone soup in the center of the table...
"Whoa..."
The pot lid up, in an instant.
The white mist rises, and the soup jumps like a beaded curtain.
This pot of soup is not simple, and a few large beef bones sink at the bottom of the pot, revealing sharp white bones. Angelica, deer antler, ginseng, wolfberry and other accessories, finish the pot noodles. Just by the moment the lid is lifted, it can fill every wisp of air in this radius of tens of zhang in an instant.
Come to think of it, the most delicious food in the world is nothing more than that.
"Gollum~"
Smelling the overflowing aroma of the soup, the two villains swallowed a mouthful of saliva that had been in their throats for a long time. Let's take a look at a few home-cooked side dishes on my own table. All of a sudden, my appetite was even more lost.
"Let him get rid of him, and we will eat ours. ”
"But..."
"But, we... Can you still eat it?"
"I'll try it first..."
“......”
Thanks to the four side dishes, the time to serve is not short. The golden pine nut fish as the main course was golden and crispy at the beginning, and it was cold to orange and soft. As for what it tastes like at this time, it is really unknown.
Xia Xun picked up the bamboo chopsticks, picked up a piece of fish, and placed it next to his mouth...
The appearance of this fish is actually acceptable, that is, between the meat and the skin, there is some crystal liquid, which makes people's scalp numb.
The meat came to his mouth, and he couldn't swallow it, Xia Xun hesitated for a long time...
"Smack~"
"Hey, forget it..."
In the end, the fish did not fall into the mouth, and the bamboo chopsticks were put down in a dull manner.
"This, he made it too disgusting. ”
"What about these dishes?" asked Peony with a pouting look of distress and pity.
"It can only be cold, you see this, this, this... Why should we eat?" Xia Xun pointed to a few places on the side dish with crystal saliva on the side dishes, and said disgustingly.
“......”
"The knife master is too much!"
"He's been like that before?"
Peony shook her head, "No. ”
"Eh~"
Xia Xun also shook his head, but he shook it to self-deprecation.
He got up, patted his buttocks, sighed, and said, "Then he's really bad." We can't eat this dish, so let's go eat him. ”
Glancing at the knife master, Peony quietly approached Xia Xun's side, covered his mouth with his small hand, and said in a low voice: "But the knife master's mouth is very powerful." ”
"Tsk!"
Cover your ears and steal the bell.
No matter how small the voice is, how can it be worthy of the tip of the king's ear?
When the knife master heard this, he put down the soup bowl in his hand angrily, and turned his head to look: "I said that you little girl, you haven't married yet, why don't you just help this wild baby talk bad about the family all night?"
The little foot stomped, and the little face blushed: "You were the one who ruined our hard-working side dishes first..."
Without waiting for the knife master to entangle again, Xia Xun shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said with a wry smile: "Let's go, let's talk about him, let's fill his stomach first, and then talk to him." ”
As he spoke, he led the peony to the table opposite the knife master and sat down.
"Tsk... What a shame. ”
Seeing Xia Xun sitting down so generously, he rinsed the bowl and picked up chopsticks without paying attention, looking like a master's house. The knife master was unhappy in his heart, and immediately rose up again.
"I said little peony, this liar ancestor, it's not something ordinary people can do. Not only does it have a flamboyant tongue, but it also has to have a face thicker than my chopping board, right?"
"Aggressive~"
"Knife Master!"
Peony took the dishes and chopsticks handed over by Xia Xun, and glanced at the knife master complainingly: "You ruined all our side dishes, you are embarrassed to say it." ”
"Hey, I said he didn't mean you, you little girl is still distressed. ”
Biting off a piece of beef leg meat picked up from the soup bowl, the knife master carried the beef bone, pointed at Xia Xun with a big grin, and rebuked vaguely: "I sue you, I have long been unpleasant to this kid, and if I don't say enough to him tonight, I won't be able to go down with my anger." ”
After a round of reprimanding, the meat foam in the knife master's mouth was sprinkled everywhere, drifting away like mist, and falling sporadically into the surrounding vegetable plates. Once again, the two of them were disgusted, the corners of their mouths turned up, and their eyelids trembled.
Can this meal still be delicious?
Peony looked at Xia Xun innocently, as if she wanted to ask for help.
"Forehead ......"
It's just that in the face of such a rough cook, what tricks can Xia Xun have?
I could only wrinkle my scalp, quickly picked up the bamboo chopsticks, and picked up a few large pieces of beef that were not foamed on the table and sandwiched them into the bowl of peony. Then, he put a few more pieces into his bowl. Fang was afraid that the dishes here would also repeat the mistakes of the four side dishes, so he filled the two large bowls with peace of mind, and put down the chopsticks with peace of mind.
Spread his hands and said generously: "Okay, if you have something to say now, hurry up..."
“......”
"Huh!"
With a contemptuous laugh and a bite of beef leg meat, the knife master said disdainfully: "I don't want to say it now, what can you do with me?"
"You'll have to say it sooner or later..."
Changing his posture, Xia Xun picked up a piece of steak meat in the bowl and took a big bite. Looking at the white mist rising from the soup pot, I thought a little...
"You've scolded and scolded tonight, and you've been sarcastic, so let's get to the point. lest this all-beef feast that you have worked so hard to make will end up being able to enjoy it alone. ”
“......”
The topic changed suddenly, Xia Xun seemed to have something else to say, and it was very difficult to understand.
However, with the knowledge and wisdom of the three people present, they should all be able to understand the meaning.
Sure enough...
After Xia Xun's words, the sword master, who had been sneering for a night, was surprisingly silent. It's just that his face hasn't changed much. It's just that he turned from ridicule to calm, still casually, carrying a big beef leg meat, and continuing to chew and bite by himself, eating with relish, but he didn't answer.
"Hiss~"
"Chirp~"
“......”
For a while, with the silence of the knife master, the kitchen, which had been tossing for half a night, finally quieted down.
No one spoke, they were all eating in silence.
Three people, three kinds of eating, the knife master's big grin, Xia Xun's calmness, and Peony's Sven, combined into a strange picture.
Quietly.
The wolf spit out and swallowed, chewing slowly, a roasted beef leg the thickness of Xia Xun's waist pole, and it didn't take long for the knife master to gnaw a thick white bone.
The greasy sackcloth sleeves, wiped the greasy big mouth...
"The people behind me, I want to see you. ”
“......”
