Chapter 730 Book a copy for me too

Just when Han Guishan was passionately sweeping the dishes and was about to eat half a chicken, Taishi Snake Soup was finally served.

Different from the seemingly simple but simple and elegant small cups used to hold chickpeas, the bowl of Taishi snake soup is at least larger, about twice the size of chickpeas, and it is full and covered with a lid.

The surface of the bowl is covered with exquisite patterns, which looks a bit gimmicky, making people think, um, the things inside should be quite expensive.

One bowl per person.

Han Guishan didn't take off the cover first, he was still gnawing on the chicken feet. With his efforts just now, a hill of chicken bones had piled up in the ossuary in front of him, and the waiter even replaced him with a new bone plate so he can spit out more chicken bones.

Han Guishan rubbed his chicken feet, turned his head and glanced at the Taishi Snake Soup in front of Xu Cheng who had already lifted the lid.

The appearance of Taishi Snake Soup is very beautiful when it is on the table. The honey-colored soup, the thinly sliced ​​snake meat is mixed with the shreds of various other ingredients, white and black, with different thicknesses and lengths. .Coupled with the top handful of hair-thin lemon leaves for decoration and the white chrysanthemum petals sprinkled on the top, it looks like a colorful painting that looks very artistic, but I don’t know what the painting is about. Anyway, just by looking at it, you will definitely not be able to tell that it is a bowl of snake soup.

At least Han Guishan didn't see it.

It was normal for him not to notice it, and neither did most of the diners. It was not until the waiter saw that everyone lifted the lid and introduced to everyone that this dish was Taishi snake soup.

Oh, it turned out to be Taishi Snake Soup.

From the moment the invitation letter for the Midsummer Banquet was issued, those who had not received the invitation letter began to analyze what dishes Sun Maocai would cook for his debut, and those who had already received the invitation letter naturally also analyzed it.

Taishi Snake Soup is not one of Sun Maocai's specialty dishes, but he won an award after all. Although it is too troublesome to cook, many diners have guessed whether they will make this dish.Guessing is guessing, because Sun Maocai has done too little, and there are few photos released, so many diners who have guessed whether there will be Taishi Snake Soup do not know when they see Taishi Snake Soup This dish is actually Taishi snake soup.

The most important thing is that the limelight of today's midsummer banquet has been completely taken away by Jiang Feng, and the focus of everyone's attention is no longer on Sun Maocai.Because chickpeas have given everyone such a wonderful experience, even when eating the following dishes, many people can't help but reminisce about the chickpeas that have already been swallowed and have begun to be digested by the digestive system.

This kind of taste that the more you eat, the more delicious it is, only chickpeas can give them.

"It's actually Taishi Snake Soup." Peng Changping didn't recognize it either, and was very surprised after hearing the waiter's introduction.

"You also know this dish?" Xu Cheng asked in agreement.

"I know, but I always thought that this dish was lost. If I remember correctly, this dish is not easy to cook. If you want to make it the best, you need to cultivate the most suitable chrysanthemum for this dish, and make it suitable for it. But based on the time of the broth, it will take at least ten hours to make this dish, and if it is based on the time of cultivating chrysanthemums, then this dish may take several months." Peng Changping laughed.

"Do you want to cultivate chrysanthemums?" Xu Cheng was shocked.

"I needed it back then, but I don't need it now. What I said back then was something my father told me. At that time, it was nothing to cultivate chrysanthemums for a dish. Maybe even rice for a dish. In fact, it’s not necessary at all, it’s just that noble people like it.” Peng Changping said, “What do you call it in today’s language? Oh, yes, private customization, you want to be unique.”

Xu Cheng couldn't understand, shook his head, picked up a spoon and scooped up a spoon full of snake soup.

The Taishi Snake Soup this time is different from the last time I tried the dish. Sun Maocai didn't prepare the broth in advance, and he could only use the ready-made broth that Jiang Feng made before. Although it was very delicious, it was not suitable for this dish.This time, for the 51 servings of Taishi Snake Soup, Sun Maocai deliberately started to make the broth two days in advance. The broth is made with abalone, fresh bamboo shoots, black fungus, shiitake mushrooms, whole chicken, ham, and other ingredients.

It was hung yesterday, and it has been kept warm to make the ingredients more crispy and the taste more integrated into the soup.

Of course, chrysanthemums will not be specially cultivated for a dish as Peng Changping said, even if Sun Maocai has that level, he doesn't have the time.He just chose the white chrysanthemum that he thought was the most suitable within a limited range of choices. After all, a well-used chrysanthemum is just icing on the cake, and if it is average, it will not hurt.

The Taishi Snake Soup made without the specially prepared broth last time was already delicious, not to mention that this time Sun Maocai started preparing it two days in advance, and specially prepared a pot of Taishi Snake Soup with a special broth.

It is an exaggeration to say that the tongue is fresh, but it is enough to make all the diners here redefine the dish of snake soup.

Because of the region, many places do not know how to cook snake meat. Many people may live for 30 to [-] years without eating snake meat, and many people will not try to eat snake meat because they are afraid of snakes.Snake meat is not a home-cooked dish, and it hardly even appears in the vegetable market. Even if a few restaurants sell it, diners will rarely order something they don’t know the taste on a whim. It is only available when the price is expensive.

If you eat less, you don't understand, but it tastes fresh.

Snake meat itself is different from conventional meat. Depending on the type of snake, the meat quality is slightly different, and even the taste and texture will be different.Taishi Snake Soup uses 5 kinds of snakes, some of which are highly venomous snakes, and the shredded meat of 4 kinds of snakes is stewed into the soup. Only the shredded snakes of Shuilu can be chewed and tasted.

The deliciousness, toughness, and sweetness of snake meat, the richness, sweetness, and deliciousness of broth, the lightness of chrysanthemum shreds, the fragrance of lemon leaf shreds, and a little bit of bitterness, are gathered in the mouth with a small spoon and chewed between the teeth , diverge on the tip of the tongue.

wonderful.

Such a dish can afford the axis of a midsummer feast.

The diners who had been completely distracted by Jiang Feng finally remembered who they were looking forward to the Midsummer Banquet in the first place, and finally remembered who they thought the Midsummer Banquet was a solo show for.

Sun Maocai may not be as good as Chef Arnold in cooking, but he understands the stomach of Chinese people better than Chef Arnold.

A bowl of Taishi Snake Soup made everyone fall into silence again.

The silence was accompanied by a very low babbling sound.

There are too few chickpeas, and everyone is reluctant to eat them, and they can't make a sound even if they want to.Taishi Snake Soup needs to be chewed, and there is room to swipe your mouth, but it seems to have more atmosphere when eating.

Han Guishan had completely forgotten about the roast chicken on the table.

He eats fast, even when he eats chickpeas, he eats faster than his tablemates, not to mention he can chew the Taishi Snake Soup that can be devoured.

Soon, the bottom of the bowl of snake soup was exhausted, and Han Guishan began to scrape the bowl, lick the spoon, and be himself.

Xu Cheng: ...

He also wants to lick the spoon.

Xu Cheng silently chewed the snake meat in his mouth, feeling a little bit different about his tongue today.

If others have never eaten Sun Maocai's Taishi Snake Soup, how could he have never eaten it.

It wasn't him, Xu Chengchui, one of the famous chefs all over the world counted as one, whoever came out with a new dish at that time, he didn't eat it at the first time.Even if it is half a world away, Xu Cheng can eat the dishes in the morning in a dozen hours.

Even if it was developed on the Antarctic, he can eat it.

But Xu Cheng felt that if he was not old enough to have memory decline, the Taishi Snake Soup he ate a few years ago seemed a little different from the one he eats today.

Not so delicious.

Xu Cheng has already noticed that he feels that every dish is particularly delicious today not because the chef's level has improved, but because his sense of taste seems to be a little different from before.

Few people can discover this in such a short period of time, after all, the degree of taste improvement is different for each person.Because Xu Cheng's tongue is very sensitive, it can even be said that he is not inferior to Chen Xiuxiu at all. Even if he improves a little, there will be a huge change that can be felt immediately, unlike Jiang Feng's tongue.

He all knew that the buff did not feel the effect of the buff.

"I didn't think snake meat was so delicious at first. It's a loss. Last time when I was in the south, the boss wished us to eat snake meat. My wife was there at that time. She was a little afraid of snakes and didn't dare to eat it. Go. Sigh, I should have taken her to eat if I knew it earlier, it’s so delicious, what a pity.” Han Guishan began to sigh after adding the spoon.

"If the chef's skills are not good, the snake meat will be the same, just eat it fresh, and now it's basically artificially bred meat snakes, specially bred species, the meat is fat but the taste is not good." Xu Chengdao.

"Is that so?" Han Guishan suddenly realized, "I still have to bring my wife here to eat, I'll send a message to ask my assistant to contact me to see if I can make a reservation."

With that said, Han Guishan took out his mobile phone and sent a message to his assistant.

Xu Cheng:?
Can you do this?

Run away?

Xu Cheng also took out his mobile phone to send a message to his assistant. He just typed two words and suddenly realized that his assistant is not as useful as Han Guishan's assistant.

"Order a copy for me, and chickpeas too." Xu Cheng said.
