I am Qinxing No.1

Chapter 181 The Big Wine Tank in the Tavern (Two in One)

Puffer fish, once the freshest in the world, is extremely poisonous, and there is no cure for this poison. Once poisoned, it can only wait to die.

Even so, the ancients still did not hesitate to "eat puffer fish with all their might", risking their lives to taste this delicacy in the world, but all the ancient people ate were wild puffer fish.

In modern times, the state explicitly prohibits the sale of wild puffer fish. Now the market is supplied with artificially farmed puffer fish, mostly red-finned oriental dolphins and dark-striped dolphins. Exams and certificates are eligible for processing.

Chefs both support and lament the country’s regulations. Fugu is related to human life, so it is understandable for the country to ask for such a request; but the prohibition of wild puffer fish on the market has indeed lost its former glory to the former “best in the world”. Although the artificial puffer fish is more tender and delicious than ordinary fish, it is no longer the freshest in the world.

You know, the former No. [-] delicacy in the world was a "prime minister of puffer fish" in the early Ming Dynasty.

At that time, Hu Weiyong relied on his ability to slaughter puffer fish with one hand and the courage to risk his life to taste first, so that he got Li Shanchang's attention, and then stepped into the center of power step by step; Li Shanchang, an old fox, would be promoted because of his appetite, which can be seen How delicious is this fugu.

"The most delicious of the puffer fish is of course the wild puffer fish. In fact, it goes without saying that it is puffer fish. Even the common fish tastes very different from wild and artificially raised fish. The real foodies even have to choose the place of origin, accurate to the specific water area. "

Zhou Dong once heard from Yuan Zidan that the wild Yellow River carp that Yuan Weiting ate had to be from Heigangkou in the north of Bianliang. After the fish were caught, they had to be put in uncondensed lard immediately, and then quickly transported to the capital. How fine is the requirement of eating.

When talking about the wild puffer fish that has been extinct for a long time, even Yuan Zidan couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and waved his hands repeatedly, saying that he didn't have the ability to deal with wild puffer fish like Hu Weiyong, otherwise he must get a taste .

National law prohibits the sale of wild puffer fish, and Yuan Zidan did not dare to defy the law.But the law does not prohibit him from making it for himself to eat, but Yuan Zidan still failed to try it in the end. Firstly, there is no wild puffer fish in the market now, and secondly, he thinks that he does not have the ability of Hu Weiyong, so he does not want to commit suicide.

The most delicious parts of wild puffer fish are the liver and ovaries, and these two parts are the most toxic.

As for the way modern chefs handle puffer fish, compared to the ancients who gambled with their lives, it is already a simplified version of the simplified version. Even if the country lifts the ban on the sale of wild puffer fish, there are definitely not many chefs who hold a qualification certificate for handling puffer fish. Dare to try.

"System, are you greedy for me? Now it is not only illegal to sell wild puffer fish, but it is also illegal to buy it. Unless I catch it myself and make it for myself, it is not considered a violation of the law."

Zhou Dong was eager to move. When he was in Qingxiang, he often heard He Bijin talk about the deliciousness of wild puffer fish. At the same time, he was severely warned by the teacher again and again. After entering Qinxing, he can touch anything, except that the laws of the country cannot touch it. Never try to touch wild puffer fish.

However, Zhou Dong has 100% confidence in the system. When he thinks of the deliciousness of wild puffer fish, he can't help drooling like Yuan Zidan.

"I have a system in hand. I am probably the only chef in the world who can handle wild puffer fish and guarantee [-]% safety. If I can get wild puffer fish, I must let my parents taste it and cook it for myself and my family. , that’s not illegal, is it?”

"This skill can also be filial to parents, but it's a pity that more people can't try it."

Zhou Dong fell asleep with a trace of regret. Like all chefs, he also hoped that his craftsmanship could be recognized by countless diners, and he also hoped that the former "No. [-] Fresh in the World" could appear on the dining table again. Under the law, you can only think about it at most.

***
Teacher Yu always makes people unable to find any faults in his work. He brought Xiao Yueyue and "Elephant Sun" to pick up Zhou Dong and Lao Guo early in the morning; this is the first time Zhou Dong saw "Elephant Sun" , Seeing the real person is indeed more shocking than seeing it on TV. Standing beside him, Xiao Yueyue is an international male model with a fit body.

The five drove straight to Daxing, with the goal of Teacher Yu's private zoo.

Even in Daxing, a private zoo of [-] acres is definitely not too big, so Zhou Dong has always been very stubborn in thinking that this is the so-called zoo created by Mr. Yu. There are many pet players in the old capital, but no one can play it. It's just this size.

Since the original starting point was to play, it is really inappropriate to call it a zoo. It is not far from a manor full of animals.

Aren't the gardens of princes and nobles in ancient times like this?In the garden, there are moose deer coming and going, peacocks spreading their tails, macaques hanging on the trees, and Persian cats in their arms. Can you say this is a zoo?

Turning a luxurious garden full of animals into a zoo is the great wisdom of Teacher Yu. The phenomenon of hatred of the rich in society is not a day or two.

After entering the garden, besides all kinds of animals, Mr. Yu's dozens of small ponies are the ones that get Zhou Dong's favor the most. Although they are not as handsome as tall horses, they are small and exquisite, which makes people feel pity.

These ponies are the most humane, they treat Zhou Dong as their relatives after feeding them a few grasses, rubbing their heads against him, and snorting "喯喯儿", a group of children visiting the park are envious and also Followed to feed the horse, chirping excitedly.

It is said that Mr. Yu's most precious thing is these horses. He usually does not allow anyone to touch them except for his true friends. But when these children play with the horses, he just stands aside with a loving smile on his face. Children posing for a photo.

Zhou Dong has paid special attention to these children, big and small, the oldest is eleven or twelve years old, and the youngest is only four or five years old. Even when they are playing happily, there are faces that shouldn't be there at this age. be cautious.

They were dressed in ordinary clothes, even a little outdated. They didn't look like sweethearts raised by their parents at all, and there was only a teacher-like person looking after them.

"Who are these children?"

"They are all poor children in the orphanage"

Lao Guo shook his head, with a bitter expression on his face: "Old Yu said that the zoo collects tickets from the outside world, but in fact there are not many tourists. The zoo is just a way of saying it to the outside world. Except for friends from all walks of life who come here for gatherings on weekdays, it will be open for free. To social welfare units such as nursing homes and orphanages.

The seventeen children here are all orphans supported by him, and he will support them until they graduate from college. "

Zhou Dong nodded: "No wonder Teacher Yu lives so happily every day. The old saying is true, kind people are always happy."

Old Guo heard the words and said with a sad face: "Pull it down, he is just born with a good personality.

I also learned from him and did a lot of good deeds, but why am I not happy with him?Not to mention that I have to worry about the whole thing of De Yushe, there is even wind, frost, snow and rain outside, and all kinds of open and hidden arrows.

Sometimes I really want to be a chef, but my daughter-in-law disagrees, saying that being a chef is tiring and doesn’t make much money, and I will never be allowed to turn back in this life.

Hey, bitter ~ wow! "

As soon as Zhou Dong heard this, he called it a top board. No wonder people said that Lao Guo’s greatest hobby is the art of Peking Opera. It can’t be called a hobby now. He is now a serious successor of the “Shanghai School of Peking Opera”, and he can be a hit every time he performs. The existence of seat.But in this way, I am afraid that Lao Guo will have more troubles. Originally, all kinds of open and dark arrows were only from the cross talk circle, but now even the opera circle is about to move.

People, if you are not good, you can't see the good of others, this is the original sin!

After taking Zhou Dong around the garden, Teacher Yu arranged for 'Elephant Sun' to take the children to lunch.

There is its own dining hall in the garden, sometimes it is made by the chef of the dining hall, and sometimes Teacher Yu will show off his big iron pot stew or something.

Today the children arranged to eat in the dining hall, but he didn't plan to invite Zhou Dong to eat here. After the elephant grandson came back, he smiled and said to Zhou Dong: "Brother Zhou, since we are in Kyoto, we should experience the taste of Kyoto." .

The Sui Garden you have been to can be regarded as a representative of high-end private kitchens in Kyoto, and it can be said to be a top-notch restaurant.

But it's also about eating. We also have the most down-to-earth "taverns" in Kyoto. I'm afraid you haven't been there yet, right?
Hey, it's hard to find authentic taverns in Kyoto these days, but fortunately there are still some in Daxing, what's the matter, let's get up? "

Even though Zhou Dong has the two honors of Chinese Noodle King and Chinese Dionysus, this is the first time he heard that there is a difference between a tavern and a restaurant, so he immediately became interested: "Then I have to go and see it."

"Haha, make sure you don't make a difference, and you won't be disappointed, Brother Zhou."

Teacher Yu laughed and said: "Yue Yue, you drive, let's run to the 'big wine tank'!"

About ten minutes later, the car turned into an old street and stopped in front of a shop. There were three bright red characters written on the blue brick wall and the old black paint plaque, "Large wine tank".

Walking into this tavern that Mr. Yu mentioned, you will feel the breath of the times. The walls are all white, but they are old and yellow, and there are no high-end dining tables and chairs. A large round wooden lid, this is considered a wine table.

There are a few stools next to the wine tank, which are definitely not new.

Teacher Yu asked everyone to sit down on the bench, and shouted to the boss: "Master Wen, I don't want to drink white food today, so let me bring you a box of green sticks first. You can choose the dishes you like."

"Got it!"

The boss responded, and soon moved a box of Yanjing Beer, which was the cheapest green bottle, 600 grams per bottle, and the alcohol content was much higher than some new brands today. Only then did Zhou Dong know that the green stick was Refers to this beer.

Before Zhou Dong could ask a question, Teacher Yu lit a cigarette and said, "Brother, the tavern in our old Yanjing is a tavern, and the restaurant is a restaurant.

A restaurant is a place where ordinary friends are invited, or where various relationships are communicated, and the more upscale the place is, the more rules there are, such as no smoking, no punching, and various restrictions, which can suffocate people to death, and there are still places like this Not the worst. "

Zhou Dong was taken aback: "Which point, brother Yu?"

Lao Guo and Xiao Yueyue laughed and said, "That means you can't get enough to eat!"

Zhou Dong also laughed when he heard it. Although the words were a bit exaggerated, they represented the feelings of many people; sometimes the more you eat a big banquet, the variety of dishes is dazzling, and the dishes are guaranteed, but you just can’t enjoy yourself. After the wine game is over, we have to add some skewers.

"The tavern is different. There are no rules. My brother can follow his temper in this kind of place."

Teacher Yu flicked the cigarette ash on the ground while talking: "During the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, there were many small taverns in Kyoto, but there were not many real big restaurants.

why?At that time, housing prices were stable, rents were low, and the pace of life of ordinary people was slow, and they all liked to drink a few sips, but who could bear to go back to a big hotel?In this kind of tavern, if you get a plate of peanuts and a dime of wine, you can sit there for a long time and no one will chase you away. Do you think this day is beautiful?
So, this tavern is the place where you can really drink and eat, and it is a place for the common people; in big restaurants and so on, in fact, a few people who go in actually eat and drink, and some of them are mixed with alcohol. I don't know how many profit plots there are, how tired are you?

Brother, what people are envious of now is "slowness in the past". In fact, what is there to be envious of? Isn't it enough for you to slow down?See, this 'big wine vat' can realize the wishes of many people! "

Zhou Dong nodded secretly when he heard it. What Mr. Yu said was very good. It seemed that he was talking about the tavern and the big restaurant, but in fact it revealed an attitude towards life. Enlightenment, and I have to learn, Teacher Yu has basically become a 'fairy'.

While talking, the boss has already served several side dishes, fried peanuts, pig ear strips, beef with five-spice sauce, cured skin mixed with cucumber, green pepper preserved eggs, shallot mixed with tofu, deep-fried stinky tofu, fried chicken with old sauce.

Don't look like they are all small dishes, but they are so fragrant that people want to drink a few sips when they see them. Zhou Dong is not very good at wine, but he couldn't help opening a bottle of green sticks for himself.

"You don't need to order food when you enter this big wine tank, because the boss has prepared more than ten kinds of dishes, depending on how many people you come, he will serve you as many dishes, absolutely conscientious.

Just like today, in addition to these cold dishes, there are two kinds of hot dishes. One is stewed crucian carp in a big pot, and the other is roasted old goose in an iron pot. If you want more dishes, please go out and turn right to the big restaurant.

Brother Zhou, don't think these dishes are simple, but they are all specialty dishes that the boss has cooked for decades, not to mention that everything is the best in the world, and it is absolutely impossible for ordinary gourmets to find fault.

Brother Zhou, you are an expert, you will know it once you eat it. "

At this moment, the boss took a cigarette from Mr. Yu, and after hearing what Mr. Yu said, he didn't leave. He looked at Zhou Dong with a smile, and he still had confidence in his craft.

Oh, it's too bullying to open a perfect taste in this kind of tavern, let's go to the professional level.

After Zhou Dong upgraded to the perfect level, he could open the three levels of specialization, master, and perfection at will. If Mr. Yu didn't say that, and if the boss hadn't looked at him eagerly, he wouldn't even want to open the specialization level. .

First of all, he picked up a peanut and put it into his mouth, chewed it twice and nodded, "It's a very special frying method. Boss, you first selected peanuts with the same size and round and full grains, soaked them in water first, and then Send it to the oil pan for quick frying.

This frying method requires very high heat control, and the boss is obviously a master, so the fried peanuts look ordinary, but they are actually very unusual; not only does it guarantee the crispy taste, but also because they have been soaked in water before, they are also There is an extra kind of tenacity, and it tastes chewy and fragrant! "

Then I tasted a few side dishes, and a series of comments said: "The five-spice sauce beef is made of old soup and stewed, which is full of flavor. This is not a pick. As for the recipe of the old soup, I can eat some, so I won't say much. It should be It's the boss' trade secret.

The marinade of stinky tofu is very classic. In addition to several common ingredients, the boss also added a special marinated toon juice?This is actually not a secret, but nowadays there are not many chefs who are willing to work so hard.

There is also this waxed skin, which is made by the big waxed skin in Lu Province. It is thick but not sticky, and the mouth is smooth and smooth. It should be made by the boss himself.

Hehe, I finally understand that the boss’s side dishes seem simple, but they are all good products prepared by himself. Although your tavern is small, you are a chef with a lot of thought.”

The boss looked at Zhou Dong, smiled wryly, and said, "Come on, I met an expert today. This little brother who is older than you is an expert? I have to give you a [-]% discount on today's consumption. Don't be too polite."

Teacher Yu laughed loudly: "I have copied this, thank you, Master Wen."

Even though he is worth hundreds of millions, he got a [-]% discount in the tavern, but it made him as happy as a child.

After a few rounds of drinking, Zhou Dong felt that eating and drinking had never been so enjoyable. He took a bottle of green stick and drank it all in one gulp, wiped his mouth and said, "Teacher Yu, this kind of tavern is really interesting. Eating with the garden is more fun."

Teacher Yu looked at him with a smile, and suddenly asked: "Then I wonder if Brother Zhou's private room will be made into a 'Suiyuan' or a 'Big Wine Vat'?"

Zhou Dong was taken aback by his question.
