The ironware I made shines

Chapter 192 Herb Soup

Ge Xiaohua knew the owner of the authentic Dongjia Yangbei hot pot restaurant in Gaoshan Township, Xunjiang County. He knew that the restaurant used authentic ingredients and the price was affordable, so it was quite famous in the local area. They knew each other, so he would not cheat White and others. If Ge Xiaohua did not lead the way, the probability of being cheated is still very high.

"White, Your Excellency Hanweisi, what we are going to eat today is a special dish, I guarantee that you have never eaten it."

"Hot pot? We've all eaten it." Seeing the induction cooker on the table, White speculated that it might be hot pot. No matter in foreign countries or in China, White and others have eaten some special hot pot, so it is not uncommon for them to do so.

"Have you ever eaten hot pot with mutton soup?" Ge Xiaohua said the ranking of this hot pot in transliteration, and the two foreigners learned it with great effort.

"Bie Yang?"

"Yes, lamb deflated soup." Ge Xiaohua nodded, motioning for Zhao Kang to explain, as a foreign language student, a former diplomat, and the boss of a foreign trade company, Zhao Kang should have a new explanation for the names of some of these special domestic foods .

"Simply put, sheep defibrillation is the grass juice that is digested in the sheep..."

"Isn't that sheep excrement?"

Hanweisi's comprehension ability is still good, he swallowed his saliva, and seemed a little nauseous.

"The ones that haven't been excreted can't be called excrement, but Baicao soup!" Ge Xiaohua thought of another name for sheep's flat and cow's flat, and used it to explain.

"Anyway, thinking it's excrement from sheep, I just..." White was also speechless, frowning, as if he had lost his appetite.

In fact, if it is some unscrupulous shop, bullying foreign tourists who do not know how to do it will mix it with excreted lamb defibrillators, then the taste will be much heavier, and the nutrition is not much. Ge Xiaohua knows that the ingredients of this shop are still very authentic. The sheep deflated, which can ensure the preservation of nutrients, as well as taste.

How to explain it? Both White and Hanweis feel that the flattened sheep is excrement, and they are still very disgusted. This is also the thinking of many Chinese people. After all, "rare things" such as flattened sheep and cows are not acceptable to everyone.

The hotpot owner Lao Su said: "Xiaohua, today's pot of lamb soup is taken from a black goat I just slaughtered. It's very fresh and tastes authentic. These foreigners have eaten it once. It's absolutely delicious. Will come for the second time!"

In addition to the mutton soup, Boss Su also served several plates of good mutton, haggis, vegetables, etc., which can be described as extremely rich, just because the soup at the bottom of the hot pot is glowing green, unlike other hot pots that are booming. Moreover, there was an indescribable "sourness" floating in the air.

After the induction cooker was turned on, the mutton soup boiled quickly, and the taste was even stronger. Not only White and Hanweis covered their mouths and noses, but even Zhao Kang couldn't bear it.

Seeing the distressed appearance of the three of them, Boss Su laughed loudly, and said in Mandarin with local dialect: "The more you eat the hotpot, the more you want to eat it."

"Okay, Lao Su, it's useless if you force them." Ge Xiaohua took a piece of mutton and replaced it with a hot pot. The green and oily mutton soup looked like ghost fire to White and the others. Halo, can this kind of food be eaten?
With such doubts in their hearts, the three of them looked at Ge Xiaohua and ate the cooked mutton in the mutton soup without blinking.

Ge Xiaohua chewed slowly, with a look of enjoyment, and said after eating: "The mutton is tender but not showy, delicious, delicious."

The mutton soup removes the smell of mutton very well, making the mutton smell like grass. Although the mutton soup has a smell in the air, it is a bit similar to the feeling of stinky tofu. It smells stinky and eats it. It is fragrant, and the sheep deflated soup clears heat and detoxifies, and has many traditional Chinese medicine effects, which indeed have health care effects on the body.

Both sheep and cattle grow up eating herbs, so it’s not a lie to say that the sheep’s defecation is herb soup, but now many businesses have adopted some tricks to make money by mixing real sheep and cow excrement into it. This makes the taste not authentic, and the taste tends to be more like excrement.

A traditional delicacy has to go through the publicity stage until people have actually tried it. If the taste is not as expected, it will affect the reputation of this delicacy.

However, nowadays Chinese people are doing everything they can to make money, and some of them have violated a lot of moral conscience and adulterated behaviors. They can make some money in a short period of time, but it is not a long-term solution. Repeat customers will basically be wiped out.

Seeing that Ge Xiaohua was eating so deliciously, he took another bowl of mutton soup, sniffed it, gave a sigh of admiration, and drank a bowl of mutton soup in one gulp...

"Gollon, Gollon"

White was so stimulated that he bravely picked up a piece of mutton and put it into the pot. After waiting for a few minutes, the mutton was 8 ripe. White held his nose with one hand and put the mutton into the pot with the other hand. in the mouth.

After chewing for a while, the tenderness of the mutton and the smell of green grass erupted on the tip of the tongue. White's eyes lit up, and he speeded up his chewing, and quickly swallowed the mutton. At first, he thought it was difficult to swallow, but now it seems that it is too much thought about it.

"It's delicious, Hanweisi, come and taste it, it's not as bad as you imagined, and it's not so bad after getting used to the taste, haven't you eaten stinky tofu?"

"Is there stinky tofu so delicious?" Hanweisi is a loyal stinky tofu lover. When he traveled to China in the early years, he went to Shonan City. At first, he kept a respectful distance from the black tofu that was dark and smelly. But after eating a piece, Hanweisi couldn't stop, he ate several servings, and wanted to take some back to the country, but he was stopped, and the stinky tofu was also confiscated.

Because the airline has regulations, stinky tofu, durian and other smelly food cannot be carried into the cabin, so as not to affect other passengers. Although Hanweis has a private plane, he took a civilian flight that time.

"Ah? Can't bring stinky tofu back to the UK? My God!" A British duke of Hawes actually ate all the stinky tofu in front of the security check at the airport, frightening the security staff...

Ge Xiaohua also heard Zhao Kang mention some secrets of the Duke of Hawes later, which is quite interesting, because Ge Xiaohua only saw this kind of scene at the train station, drinking milk, white wine and the like, in order to avoid wasting farmers The Gong brothers drank the farm rice wine they brought in one gulp, and the middle-aged woman drank a large bottle of milk. These are all real.

But Ge Xiaohua never really saw a British duke eating stinky tofu at the airport in order to save stinky tofu...

It can be imagined that the picture is still very beautiful, and there is some sense of pride in the funny, because foreigners have an irresistible attitude towards Chinese food.

"It's really as delicious as stinky tofu?" Hanweisi wanted to try it after being told by White. Zhao Kang also had to taste it. At first, the three of them didn't even move their chopsticks, but now they all move their chopsticks Of course, White and Hanweisi are not very good at using chopsticks. They still use cutlery and forks. This is the tableware that Ge Xiaohua finally asked Lao Su to find, and it was specially sterilized. It is still rare in the countryside.

Ge Xiaohua's demonstration had a great effect, and the three of them began to gobble it up. Except for being a little scared at the beginning, from the first piece of mutton sliced, they would not refuse anyone who came to them, such as haggis and offal. At the end of the meal, I drank a bowl of mutton soup.

"Wow, it's so refreshing. The mutton soup has the effect of warming the stomach. Recently, my stomach is a little cold. After drinking this soup, I feel much better." Zhao Kang said in English, and White and Hanweis also agreed that the stomach is indeed comfortable. A lot, not only the stomach, but the whole body is warm.
