"Qingquan, are you sure these are all food?" Cui Shao's beard shook and said. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Of course it's eating, isn't it hard for my father-in-law not to smell the fragrance of these foods?" After Zhang Nan finished speaking, he sniffed hard, and the delicious taste of the soup exuded by the soup, coupled with the fragrance of Peking duck, couldn't help but make Zhang Nan's index finger move.
"It's such a beautiful food." Cui Lushi looked at the four dishes and one soup on the table, and said blankly.
"It's extreme, Qingquan, I don't know what kind of ingredients are used to make it, how can you still make it look like a shrimp?" Cui Shao looked at the appearance of the jade lobster, and then clamped the lobster's head with chopsticks, and found that the clip could not move, so he poked it with his hand again.
"This one, this one is called a lobster, this is not caught from the river, this is from the sea." Zhang Nan said with a smile.
Unexpectedly, after Cui Shao listened, the chopsticks fell on the plate with a "click", and Cui Lushi and Cui Yue were also shocked.
Cui Shao hurriedly covered Zhang Nan's mouth and whispered: "What nonsense, how can it be called a lobster?" It can't be called a lobster anymore. ā
Zhang Nan, who was covering his mouth, nodded, and Cui Shaocai put his hand down. Zhang Nan said: "If you don't call a lobster, you call it a lobster." ā
"You can call it anything, but you can't call it a lobster, didn't you say it was caught from the sea? Let's call it shrimp. Cui Shao thought about it and said.
"Okay, okay, then let me introduce these dishes in turn." After Zhang Nan finished speaking, he pointed to the soup and said: "This soup is called Shangtang Conch, which is a good ingredient for making soup, which can be added to chicken soup, and the taste is very delicious." The snail meat also has the effect of clearing heat and nourishing yin, so the soup made into the soup has the effect of clearing heat and moistening the lungs and strengthening the body. Zhang Nan pointed to the soup and read the introduction given in the system.
After hearing this, Cui Lushi hurriedly filled a bowl for Cui Shao, Cui Shao picked up the soup spoon and scooped a spoonful into his mouth, and couldn't help but praise it.
"It's delicious." Cui Shao said with a satisfied face.
When Cui Lu and Cui Yue heard this, they hurriedly filled a bowl, and Cui Yue carefully served a bowl of soup for Zhang Nan and put it in front of Zhang Nan.
"This dish, called Jade Dragon, Eh, Jade Sea Shrimp, shrimp meat is taken out and sliced, egg whites are added, corn starch is starched and set aside, eggs are separated from egg whites, add cabbage juice, salt, corn starch and stir evenly, fry in the pot and serve the dishes, it is really a must-try." Zhang Nan continued.
After listening to the introduction, Cui Shao quickly took a piece of shrimp meat and put it in his mouth, and continued to praise it.
"If you can eat such a meal every meal, it will be really satisfying, it is like a fairy day." Cui Shao said with emotion.
Zhang Nan ignored Cui Shao's emotion and continued: "This dish is called chestnut cabbage heart. It is made of oil chestnut and cabbage heart, and the characteristic is that it is yellow and green, salty and sweet, and the juice is bright and thick, complementing each other. ā
"Well, it really matches its characteristics, and it tastes good." Cui Shao didn't listen to Zhang Nan's introduction, so he took a bite and put it in his mouth, and when Zhang Nan finished his introduction, Cui Shao gave his own evaluation.
Zhang Nan continued to introduce: "This is a roast duck, the material is high-quality meat duck, the fruit charcoal is grilled, the color is ruddy, the meat is fat but not greasy, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. ā
Cui Shao took a pair of chopsticks, and after tasting it, he said: "Although it is fat but not greasy, but the oil is too big, the old man still likes lighter food, and this thing should not be eaten too much." After Cui Shao finished speaking, he quickly took another sip of soup and moistened his mouth.
"The last dish is called Lemon Juice Snowflake Beef." As soon as Zhang Nan said the name of the dish, Cui Shao was stunned, and then hurriedly said: "Qingquan, you actually slaughtered a cow without permission, do you know that this is a serious crime." ā
Zhang Nan remembered after Cui Shao's reminder that it was a felony to slaughter a ploughing cow privately in Datang, even if it was a cow that died of illness, it had to be reported to the government.
"Eh, father-in-law, don't panic, this is what the four of us know, who else knows, besides, I don't believe that my father-in-law hasn't eaten beef." Zhang Nan said with a smile.
"This ......" Cui Shao was speechless for a while, as the patriarch of the Cui family, he had naturally tasted beef, but this time he counted it on one hand, after all, it was illegal to slaughter a cultivated cattle.
"Just this once, not the next one." Cui Shao finally compromised, after all, this dish is put to his mouth, and it is not appropriate not to eat it.
"Yes, yes, eat quickly, Yue'er, you eat too." After Zhang Nan finished speaking, he sandwiched a piece of beef and put it in his mouth, I have to say that the dishes that can be selected as the state banquet must have their own uniqueness.
Cui Shao was eating, and suddenly thought of something, and said, "Qingquan, I don't know how much these dishes will cost." ā
"This, I don't know how much, it's not particularly expensive anyway." Five points for a table of dishes, it is really not expensive for Zhang Nan, after all, it is a dish for a state banquet, and if it is an ordinary dish, it will be cheaper.
"In that case, how about you and Yue'er's wedding banquet use this set of dishes, of course, you have to replace that snowflake cow or something." Cui Shaodao.
Cui Shao is actually still a little selfish, after all, these dishes are unheard of and unseen in Datang, Zhang Nan has also said that the cost of these dishes is not very much, so why don't you use these dishes as dishes at the wedding banquet? In this way, he not only earns face for himself, but also does not weaken his reputation as the head of the Cui family, and does not lose the handle of others because he spends too much.
"It's not difficult, how much does my father-in-law want." Zhang Nan asked.
"There aren't many, twenty or thirty tables, except for colleagues in the officialdom, that is, people from major families." Cui Shao thought about it and said.
Zhang Nan looked at his remaining thousands of points, and said ruthlessly: "No problem, these dishes will be used for the finale." "After all, this is also my own wedding banquet, and as a traverser, I must come up with something different.
"So good, so good." Cui Shao saw that Zhang Nan agreed, nodded with satisfaction, and the lunch ended in a cheerful atmosphere.
After lunch, Zhang Nan returned to the house under Cui Yue's send-off, and hurriedly asked Lao Su to hurry up to prepare the things on the house, and by the way, Lao Su found a teacher for himself to teach wedding etiquette, after all, this is a major event in his life, and he doesn't want to make a fool of himself at the wedding.
Sitting on the chair, watching the house being decorated a little bit red, Zhang Nan didn't know what it was like, after all, this is one of the major events in life, but he has a feeling of living in a dream, from coming to Datang, meeting Li Er, and then meeting Cui Yue, slowly step by step to the present, he is actually getting married, and life is really wonderful.
