Chapter 218 (1/2)

In the face of a big table of good dishes, ah Yao was very happy.

Such a good mood until a dish of fish and vegetables was served.

A golden mandarin fish is lying on the black glaze plate, poured with golden thick sauce. It can be imagined that the method is about braised with soy sauce, ginger and green onions, and finally sprinkled with green onion powder on the surface. The visual effect is extremely attractive.

At the same time, this dish of fresh fish and vegetables emits an indescribable peculiar smell against the heat.

When it was brought up, ah Yao was caught by the smell. She quickly held her breath and turned red. Unfortunately, it was too late. She felt that her mouth was full of the smell.

Mo xingle was amused by a Yao's reaction. He couldn't help puffing, and then laughed.

A Yao stared at him and didn't stop his happiness. Seeing that a Yao's face turned from sunny to cloudy, he got serious again and coughed: ”this is the signature dish of Fanlou. Smelly mandarin fish. Although it smells strange, it tastes delicious, which is completely different from its smell.”

Mandarin fish is cooked just right. He pokes down the fish ridge and uses his chopsticks a little harder. The soft and tender fish with snow-white fish meat will separate from the fish body and pick up large pieces of fish meat. Just before the petal like fish meat is eaten into the mouth, you can think that it must be strong in meat quality, as if the strange smell was given to it by the chef.

”Mandarin fish tastes like this, but it's really fresh!” Mo xingle tried to make a Yao accept the dish and praised it. Every mouthful was fresh and tender without fire. After a slight smell, his mouth was full of fragrance.

When Mo xingle ate a lot, ah Yao's thoughts had drifted away.

Smelly mandarin fish, smelly tofu, snail powder and other foods have a ”bad name”, but they have a group of diners who like them. As long as they don't reject its taste thousands of miles away, they can feel its ecstatic taste. The more they eat, the more they taste, the more they like them, even if they are involved in themselves.

Mo xingle was wrong. The stinky mandarin fish was not freshly fished from the river. In order to facilitate long-distance transportation, people along the river, which was originally rich in mandarin fish, put salt on both sides of the mandarin fish, but it still gave off a strange smell when it arrived.

It is very similar to the method of smelly fish recorded in Taiping Guangji. After that, the chef washed it and cooked it slowly, or stewed or braised it in brown sauce, turning decay into magic, turning it into a famous dish and even a city sign.

In non midsummer, some people will take the initiative to brew mandarin fish. The odor comes from the gas produced by food fermentation. When cooking, the odor volatilizes with the heat, so it smells and tastes delicious.

The transportation of shad is the same.

The shad is delicate and can't stand tossing. It will die when it's away from the water. Therefore, the restaurants on the side of the wharf travel. The gourmet will taste the delicious food thousands of miles away. Those who want to eat the shad thousands of miles away are either the way they cook the shad, or

Or what?

A Yao chewed her chopsticks and thought hard.

”Ah Yao, what are you still thinking? If you don't eat, I'll finish the dishes. ” Mo Xing was happy to see her face full of distress, and thought she didn't know which dish to choose.

”You eat first and I'll think about it.”

Eating vegetables is so tangled that girls nowadays are really difficult to understand. Mo xingle sighed, then he would be rude to this mandarin fish.
