Liuxiang

In the reception room, the moment before Mr. Xu put down his chopsticks, he suddenly stopped.

It's not because of anything else, it's just that under the strong smell of meat sauce, there is another brand new and beautiful taste that grows out of his mouth little by little.

This taste is very light and light, but it can be sensed by the tongue again when the mouth has tasted the strong taste, a bit like a solid seedling, flexible and long.

After tasting the taste, Mr. Xu lost energy for a while because he couldn't believe it. The chopsticks that were about to be put down turned halfway, then lifted them into the small dish and dipped some sauce into his mouth.

This time, he was no longer as careless as he was at the beginning, but began to think carefully from the moment the sauce entered his mouth.

Yes, the base is definitely beef sauce, I can't mistake the taste.

Then, seasonings such as soy sauce, mustard, and various nuts should be added. This is the second layer of taste, and it is also the taste of the usual sauce.

And here it comes!

Elder Xu's spirit lifted!

He found that faint light taste again, just hidden under the thick beef sauce taste, he just thought this taste was like a tough seed that was about to germinate, but now he felt that this taste was more like a little boy playing hide-and-seek with someone Naughty boy, the more you try to catch it, the more it will not let you catch it easily.

During this pursuit and escape, although it persisted for a long time, it finally dissipated in the mouth just like the basic taste of the beef sauce before.

Mr. Xu moved his tongue and smacked his lips regretfully, but he still didn't catch what this clear and light breath smelled like, like the smell of green grass?Like the breath of spring?All in all, it's very interesting, not annoying, and it fits well with the previous flavors.

If you guessed right, this taste should have been hidden in the meat sauce, but it is more stubborn, so it still exists after the taste of the meat sauce evaporates.

There is just one problem.

His tongue is also considered sensitive, and he could only catch this faint taste at the last moment; if it were replaced by an ordinary person's tongue, would he be able to catch it?

While meditating, Mr. Xu continued to eat the meat sauce on the plate with the tip of his chopsticks.He also competed with this tail-dragging meat sauce, and ate it up and down, trying to figure out what was going on with the taste.

But before he figured it out, the tip of the chopsticks that had penetrated into the plate again hit the bottom of the porcelain plate with a thud!

Xu Lao suddenly recovered from the devilish taste.

He took a closer look and saw that the saucer that was originally full was only half eaten by him before he knew it!

He blushed, and to cover up his embarrassment, he coughed quickly and said, "Did you just say that this sauce is called fresh breath sauce?"

Yi Baitang let out a "hmm".

Mr. Xu planned to pour himself a glass of water to wash away the smell in his mouth. He thought about it and continued, "Breath freshness sauce, how much do you plan to borrow?"

Yi Baitang: "200 million."

Elder Xu let out an "oh".

200 million is not a lot.Recently, no one has come to borrow money. The Chefs Association has a sum of money that has been sitting in dust. As long as he writes down this recipe as collateral, there is no problem in lending to him... But usually, when the chef comes to make an offer, They more or less mean that they also want to suppress the price, and things that are hard to get are less likely to be squandered.

So do I want to get back 150 million or 170 million?

Speaking of that little tail, hiss, it's really interesting!

Elder Xu took a sip of water.

Then he suddenly realized something was wrong in his mouth.

He found that there was no lingering taste of sauce in his mouth - but how could that be? !

Such a thick beef sauce, even if he only eats a chopstick, there will still be a taste in his mouth; he just ate the whole half plate, if it wasn't for his sense of taste suddenly failing, it must be——

Old Xu suddenly turned around and stared at Yi Baitang who was sitting at the table:

"You just said that your sauce is called breath freshening sauce? What is it used for?"

Yi Baitang: "..."

He didn't understand why people in the chef industry couldn't taste such a simple use, so he had to explain, "The use is to freshen the breath."

Old Xu: "..."

He also doesn't understand why someone can put this kind of innovation and invention so simply!

He slapped the table bitterly, and said, "Very good, you have successfully attracted my attention, I'll loan you 200 million—"

"Boom"!

A voice suddenly came from the back of the reception room, interrupting what Mr. Xu was about to say.

The conversation between the two people in the reception room was temporarily suspended.

Yi Baitang first turned his suspicious eyes to the door where the voice came from, and then stayed on Mr. Xu.

Only then did Mr. Xu realize that there was a distinguished guest behind him!

He didn't have time to say anything to Yi Baitang for a while, so he quickly stood up from his seat and ran in, but after a while, he ran out again, and took a plate in front of Yi Baitang The new sauce ran in again.

Yi Baitang: "..."

Then he heard a strange voice coming from inside: "Hmph, isn't it just adding mint and some flower petals, mixing them with beef sauce and cooking them, I think it's some kind of ground-breaking innovation."

Yi Baitang: "..."

He raised his eyebrows, fixed his eyes on the sliding door of the reception room, and saw two phantoms, one tall and one short, vaguely reflected on the door, the tall one was Xu Lao who was talking to him just now, and the short one was fat It's a little strange, it seems to be a big winter melon squatting there, about twice the width of ordinary people.

From coming in this morning to now, apart from cooking the sauce, Yi Baitang focused his attention for the first time: "Oh? Can you taste what specific ingredients I put in?"

"What's so difficult about it?" came a laughing voice from inside.Then, the slightly strange voice continued, "The mint leaves are the most important, followed by lilies, chive flowers, no roses, no osmanthus, no scented petals... Well, you probably put some of the pulp, At least there are apples, right?"

But in the blink of an eye, the people sitting inside have become familiar with each other, and they have analyzed all the ingredients that Yi Baitang used in the sauce.

Yi Baitang looked at the sliding door with serious eyes.

After a moment, he said, "Not bad."

The person there went on to say, "I know what you're thinking. The meat sauce has a strong taste, and your mouth feels uncomfortable after eating it. You use this light but long-lasting taste to cover up the taste of the meat sauce. In the end, It is not that there is no taste in the human mouth, but the smell of flowers and fruits remains, and the taste is still there, but it has changed from a destructive taste to a mild taste."

The people inside and outside the reception room were talking, but the two parties inside and outside a sliding door didn't pay attention. Just as they were talking, two more people came here along the small courtyard.

The person who was leading the way at the front wanted to bring the person behind him directly into the reception room, but at this moment, the big wax gourd in the reception room started to speak, and the person who was following stopped Lao Chen's actions, stopped and stayed in the reception room. Under the orange tree, listen carefully.When he heard "the taste changed from destructive to mild", his eyes lit up, and his gaze first fell on the sauce placed on the table in the reception room, and then on the owner of the sauce.

Then, I watched the excitement with great interest.

Yi Baitang has been silently listening to all that Da Donggua said.

His eyes were fixed on the position of the big wax gourd for a moment, and after the huge shadow finished speaking, he suddenly smiled and said slowly: "Part of it was eaten, and half of it was guessing that my intention pushed me back. The ingredients used. I made this sauce is nothing special, you..."

He said coldly:

"It's not necessarily anything special."
