Chapter 1223 The First Fresh Fish
"It's so torturous to finally be able to eat it. Li Yanyi couldn't help but sigh while holding the small bowl.
"No, who dictates that the chef must eat the puffer fish he makes. Zhou Shijie couldn't help but complain.
"It seems like you prescribed it more than twenty years ago. Li Yanyi immediately looked at Zhou Shijie.
"Forehead......" Zhou Shijie said that he was old and had amnesia and didn't remember it at all, so he lowered his head and drank soup.
Wuhai on the side didn't think about this, and began to drink soup while holding the bowl.
For eating, Wuhai has always been very serious.
Yuan Zhou, on the other hand, put on a mask, stood aside with a straight back, and watched the three of them drink the soup seriously.
Two puffer fish that are only one and a half pounds are made of fish bones, fish skin and fish liver, so how much can be boiled, but it is just a small bowl for one person.
The purpose of the soup is to warm the stomach and make it a little warmer, so that you can eat a cold dish of fish tartilla without hurting your stomach.
After all, diet is also about good health, which Yuan Zhou has always used in his own cooking practice.
Therefore, the three of them quickly drank this small bowl of soup.
"Horn" Wu Hai smashed his mouth unsatisfied: "This is gone?"
Wu Hai asked, and Zhou Shijie and Li Yanyi on the side also looked at Yuan Zhou.
"One bowl per person, just right. Yuan Zhou nodded.
"Too little, too little. Wu Hai shook his head and said.
"There are only so many fish for two fish. Yuan Zhou rarely explained, after all, this is his treat, and he can't be thought of as stingy.
"The next fish skull, three of you, please wait a moment. This time, Yuan Zhou didn't wait for the three of them to answer, turned around and opened the refrigerator and took out the fish tart.
The fish is served on two large plates, which are served on flat plates, which are not noticeable on small plates, but when they are served on large plates, they feel completely different.
The plate is very flat, with a simple pattern outlined by a few stripes on the outside of the plate, and the lower part of the plate inside the plate is painted with a green lotus leaf and a few lotus stems.
The pattern on it is delicate and realistic, and the cut fish is carefully placed on the empty lotus stem.
The diamond-shaped fish is stacked in the form of a blooming lotus flower, and the light pink color of the wild puffer fish makes this summer lotus picture even more realistic and interesting.
And the diamond-shaped fish flesh is crystal clear, and the middle stamen part is pale yellow, and the whole composition is extremely beautiful.
The turquoise lotus leaves, the dark green lotus leaves, the crystal clear and slightly pink fish meat, and the pale yellow stamens in the middle are like a painting on the porcelain white plate.
"Boss Yuan's composition is getting more and more beautiful. Wu Hai looked at the painting in front of him, was shocked, and praised it for the first time.
"Hmm. Yuan Zhou nodded indifferently in response to Wuhai's praise.
But Yuan Zhou is still very satisfied in his heart, after all, Wuhai is a master of oil painting, and he has an extraordinary appreciation for the picture, and this is the first time he praises the beauty of the composition of food, which shows that Yuan Zhou's daily reading of everyone's books still has some effect.
There's nothing more satisfying than putting in the effort and making progress.
"It's yellow mustard, it smells good. It was Li Yanyi who pointed to the stamens and said.
"Yes, it was just made before the three came, fresh, with a distinct aroma, suitable for dipping in the fish tart, and of course another dipping sauce for soy sauce. Yuan Zhou stretched out his hand and motioned for the three of them to look at the bottom of the lotus leaf.
There was a dark brown place, like the rich earth where lotus flowers grew, and the two of them ignored the place when they looked at it.
Only when Wuhai paid attention to the whole picture, did he say a compliment.
"I didn't even pay attention to this place, this is a compound seasoning soy sauce?" Li Yan looked over and recognized this soy sauce at a glance, but this surprised him even more.
"Xiao Yuan's craftsmanship has improved again. Zhou Shijie smiled and touched his goatee, his face full of smiles.
"That's because of me. Wuhai proudly touched his mustache and boasted.
"Thank you indeed for your drawing notes. Yuan Zhou did not dismantle the stage this time, but thanked him seriously.
Indeed, after Wuhai exchanged skills with Yuan Zhou before, he also gave Yuan Zhou a notebook, which was some of his experiences after he began to learn to paint.
And there is only this one notebook, and after he became famous as a young man, Wuhai never wrote such a notebook again.
"In addition to eating, you can also draw. Li Yan along.
"You're just going to eat. Wuhai immediately replied.
"Of course, eating is my job and hobby. Li Yanyi said triumphantly.
Li Yanyi and Wuhai don't deal with each other, that's something that the whole store knows, these two people often hate each other like this, Yuan Zhou has long been used to it.
In fact, it is remarkable that a person can do two things well in his life.
"Ahem, it's time to eat fish, if you don't eat I'll move my chopsticks." Zhou Shijie and Yuan Zhou stopped arguing with one sentence.
"Well, it's delicious. When Wuhai heard this, he immediately stretched out his chopsticks to catch the fish.
Wu Hai just took the chopsticks in his hand when he spoke, and when he heard Zhou Shijie's words, he immediately stretched out his chopsticks and grabbed a piece of fish meat, the speed was incomparable.
Because there are only two plates of fish and meat, and they are all placed in front of Zhou Shijie, Li Yanyi and Wu Hai are now sitting sideways, staring at the fish, and you eat one piece at a time, very quickly and satisfied.
The slightly cool fish meat is only lightly dipped in yellow mustard at one end, and then stuffed into the mouth, dense with a little toughness, the cold taste and the tenderness of the fish can not stop people chewing.
The spicy taste of "hiss" yellow mustard fills the mouth, and at this time, the chewed fish meat bursts out with a fresh and sweet taste, and the ice sensation is very diluted and choking.
The slight bitterness of the yellow mustard itself neutralizes the fishy smell of the fresh fish and makes the fish more delicious.
This yellow mustard originated in China, and was used as a condiment in the court during the Zhou Dynasty before being introduced to Japan.
Therefore, this yellow mustard is perfect for eating fish tart.
"Well, it's delicious. Zhou Shijie squinted his eyes slightly, admiring with satisfaction.
When the umami in his mouth faded, Zhou Shijie immediately picked up a piece of fish again, this time he dipped it in a compound soy sauce.
This time, the taste is completely different from that of yellow mustard, which is full of spiciness, not to mention slightly bitter, which can well neutralize the fishy smell of the fish.
However, the compound soy sauce is much softer, and the salty flavor and the rich aroma of the beans make the taste of the fish rich, and the trace of fishy smell in it has not been removed, but has a more vigorous feeling of sashimi.
"It's amazing, I really don't want to eat any other fish. Zhou Shijie sighed with satisfaction.
The puffer fish is known as the first fresh fish in Yuan Zhou's hands, and it bloomed its due strength, and after eating, Zhou Shijie could no longer maintain his bearing as the president, so he ate it directly and quickly.
And the other two have already started a food war, and after joining Zhou Shijie, it became a food grabbing for the three.
