Chapter 103 Great Chinese Mandarin Duck Hot Pot

How difficult is it to have an authentic hot pot meal in Britain, the originator of dark cuisine?

I decided to eat hot pot at 5 o'clock, and it took two hours to prepare all the ingredients and seasonings for hot pot until 7 o'clock. Among them, the big bone soup base took the most time.

The soup base added with secret spices continued to boil, and the finely divided and various seasonings rolled up and down with the bursting bubbles. The tempting fragrance drifted out with the wind, attracting Mrs. Heywood and the kitten she just brought.

Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Hudson, who came to visit from next door, joined with a smile.

With the help of two housewives, Shia was relieved, and pushed the troublesome Sherlock and Watson, who had slowed down to a new level of washing vegetables, out the door.

"Go, go, play your game, it's not going to help!"

Mrs. Hudson smiled while washing the vegetables: "Sherlock and John are not very good at cooking."

Xi Ya curled her lips, she is not very good at cooking, is she not good at all?

Sherlock's memory palace does not store recipes, and the field of uninteresting hands-on ability is slag. Watson is a doctor who wants to clean every vegetable leaf one by one. In addition to knowing where there are authentic Chinese seasonings nearby, It's really useless!

Mrs. Haywood cut vegetables quickly and put them on the plate. The little Scottish fold cat nestled on her slippers and refused to move. "You can't expect British men to cook food other than bread, it will only make you go to the hospital quickly." According to the report, if you are lucky, you can come back on the same day, but if you are not lucky, you have to stay there for a few more days.”

Xi Ya looked disgusted, thinking of his daddy who is good in the living room and the kitchen, he couldn't help but show off his father: "My daddy is the leader of the FBI team that makes criminals fearful at work, and he will make it for me when he gets home. Rice, how can it be like those two? Wash the dishes slowly, you can’t tell the difference between Chinese cabbage and baby vegetables, and you have to taste the salt and sugar to know, huh!”

One snort doesn't count, and two more snorts are needed to show her dislike for men who can't cook.

Mrs. Hudson covered her mouth and snickered, implying: "Anyway, it's enough for one member of the family to be able to cook."

Mrs. Heywood followed: "Indeed, Sherlock won't, but you can."

"Huh?" Shia was a little confused, "What does it matter?"

What's the use if she can cook?The most time I live in 223B is for two big men to eat together. The man who can't cook is still very LOW, which is very disgusting!

Mrs. Hudson: "No need to explain."

Mrs. Haywood: "We understand."

Shia: "..." What do you know?

The two old ladies seemed to be guarding some precious secret. They snickered and refused to say anything. They just looked at her with a look of "it's meaningless to say it. We won't expose you. Anyway, it's enough for everyone to understand". Shia was confused.

I wasn't hungry at 5 o'clock, but I spent two hours making dinner, and my stomach was growling with hunger.

Fortunately, after having a helper, the big hot pot just bought was quickly placed in the restaurant. There were so many ingredients that it filled the entire table and coffee table.

After asking each person's taste, Xi Ya didn't let them adjust it by themselves, but adjusted it all at once, one serving for each person.

"Go ahead, starving."

The two grown men eat surprisingly much, whether it is the thin-looking Watson, or the muscular Sherlock, including the two elderly ladies who should eat a lot. She was so shocked that she thought they had never eaten such a thing. Convenient hot pot.

"You guys, have you never eaten hot pot before?"

Watson ate too fast, his tongue was burned, and he rolled his tongue and said, "I have eaten it, but I have never eaten it so delicious."

Mrs. Hudson and Mrs. Heywood nodded quickly, and continued to struggle with their heads lowered, completely forgetting the three high indexes.

Shia: "..."

Her cooking skills are so good that people can't wait to swallow their tongues?

Sherlock mercilessly poured a basin of cold water to extinguish her delusions: "The Chinese restaurants opened in the UK have been adjusted to suit the tastes of the British."

As for the adjusted taste, it is worth not mentioning the influence of the world-famous British dark cooking country.

Xi Ya didn't understand even more: "You bought all the seasonings nearby, I didn't bring them back from China. If you want to eat hot pot, it should be easy."

Sherlock had a cold face: "Who would want to do it if you haven't eaten authentic hot pot once?"

Watson nodded and agreed very much: "It takes two hours to prepare for a hot pot meal, which is too time-consuming, and we have never tried it before, so naturally we would not think about doing it. If it is not Xi Ya, you want to eat it, you can take it out for dinner, or go to Just deal with it on the opposite side."

Xi Ya didn't want to say that it was because there was nothing at home. Even the big pot for hot pot was bought by driving to a supermarket two kilometers away. Why didn't it take two hours?

Chinese college students are able to eat a big hot pot meal with a rice cooker in their dormitory, but they didn't expect it to be so miserable in foreign countries.

Mrs. Hudson said: "Shia, your sauce is delicious."

Mrs. Heywood likes the soup base the most: "I think the essence of hot pot is still in the soup base. This soup base has been boiled for two full hours, and it is so rich that my kitty keeps drooling on my feet."

Shia rubbed her chin, wanting to spread Chinese cuisine to the whole world, especially London, which she hates, "Well, Sherlock, what do you think of the idea of ​​opening a hot pot restaurant in a prime location in London?"

"Golden location, where are you referring?"

Sherlock had a bad feeling, especially the wicked smile on Shia's face.

Sure enough, Xia tilted her head and said with a smile, "Of course it's opposite the Capitol!"

"Bang—" Mrs. Hudson dropped her bowl.

"Crack—" Mrs. Heywood dropped her chopsticks.

"Ha, cough—hot, hot, hot!" Watson was so hot that he jumped.

Mrs. Hudson picked up the bowl with a dry smile: "Sure enough, I am old and my ears are not working well."

Mrs. Heywood rubbed her ears, "Yes, go to the hospital tomorrow."

Watson covered his burnt mouth and stared at the culprit, angrily and funny: "Are you serious? Where is the vacant shop across from the Capitol building for you to open?"

Xi Ya silently took out her mobile phone: "It's okay, we have Mycroft!"

My sister has a backer, who is my sister afraid of!

These days, there is no way to fight for your father in a foreign country, and you can't fight for your backer? !

The call was quickly connected, and Xi Ya smiled like a wolf grandmother who seduced Little Red Riding Hood, with malicious intentions: "Mr. McCoff, now we are eating the most authentic and authentic Dahuayuanyang hot pot that even Sherlock is full of praise for. Are you coming?"

Mycroft, who was busy with work and forgot to eat: "..."

Mycroft doesn't want to go, Shia must have no good intentions, why is Sherlock full of praise, if he can praise others, the queen who has always wanted to recruit Sherlock can make him a duke tomorrow!

"I have……"

Mycroft wanted to say that he had a dedicated secretary who would bring a sumptuous dinner in an unstarred restaurant, but with a glance, the sticky notes on the table showed the sad fact that the dedicated secretary left work early today.This time happened to be meal time, so... now he is just a poor hungry little boy who doesn't care about having no food.

Mycroft, who hadn't had dinner, was silent for a while, before surrendering: "...Come."

McCoff refused to admit that he was still attracted by Shea's "Sherlock's lavishly praised Mandarin Duck Hot Pot", so he asked the driver to drive at a steady top speed, and arrived at 223B very quickly, the place he just visited at noon.

As soon as he entered the door, he almost thought he had entered the wrong place.

Sherlock, who was wearing a purple shirt that was so coquettish, unbuttoned three buttons on his chest, his curly hair curled up as if he had been ravaged by someone, and those eyes that often looked at people with arrogance and contempt were even more so. It's red... like a rabbit (event) (after).

The familiar Mrs. Watson and Mrs. Hudson, and the unfamiliar Mrs. Heywood, the three are even more exaggerated. They all look like dogs who are about to be killed by the heat in summer, sticking out their tongues and waving their hands to dissipate heat. The image of a gentleman and polite British ruined.

Mycroft: "..." Is it too late to go out now and act like you haven't been here before?

Xi Ya, who made all this trouble, saw the person coming, and waved with a smile: "Macrof is here, come quickly, they are all overwhelmed by the charm of my big Chinese mandarin duck hot pot, I am worried that if you don't come, you will die." I have to eat."

There was a hint of clarity and threat in Xi Ya's smile, "I just know that your younger brother is curious about what your younger brother eats".

Mycroft silently put down his cane and coat, handed over a bag, and sat down on the vacant seat, right next to Sherlock.

"Wow, local tyrants, Mycroft kindly sponsors Matsusaka beef and Kobe beef, tsk tsk, two of the three major wagyu beef are missing one. I'll go and put it on the plate, eat first, first eat, you're welcome."

La Laizhen, backer, local tyrant, Xi Ya was in a very good mood, and almost jumped to the kitchen.

The "ordinary" British cabinet member Mycroft Holmes is the backer, the "savior of the 21st century" detective Sherlock Holmes is the signboard, and William Horwes Berkeley is "the third most desirable man in the world" As a door god, are you afraid that her hot pot restaurant will not be able to open opposite the Capitol?

Hmph, let the queen become a foodie every minute!

"What did she do to you?"

Mycroft didn't believe Shia's words, it wasn't such a miraculous dish to be fascinated by the charm of hot pot.

As he said that, he picked up a chopstick of cooked beef and dipped it in the sauce prepared by Shia, and then... silently picked up another chopstick.

Well, it does taste good.

Watson pointed to the red side that was divided into mandarin duck pots. Unable to control the urge to cry, he choked up and said, "Just try it and you'll know."

McCoff looked at how many people were embarrassed and still stretched out his chopsticks happily, and then he looked at the clear soup that he only loved, and he also stretched it out.

Then... was turned into Sherlock Holmes Wang.

"..." Lin Xiya, you won.

Anticipating the future, Xi Ya happily came out with the world's top beef, "Here it comes, don't worry, it's definitely enough!"

Although Mycroft believed that Shia had absolutely bad intentions, he still didn't expect her ultimate goal.

He expected the beginning but not the end, "You say it again?"

Shea picked up a chopstick of potatoes, and said casually: "The people of London who don't eat hot pot are too pitiful. I must carry forward the helpful spirit of Greater China and spread my 5000-year-old food culture to the world. For the sake of your better relationship, London should be the first stop."

Watson, Mrs. Hudson, and Mrs. Heywood who were listening nodded frequently.

Good food, of course to stay!

3 votes!

Xi Ya looked at the most critical vote: "The eight major Chinese cuisines, Sichuan cuisine, Shandong cuisine, Cantonese cuisine, Fujian cuisine, Huaiyang cuisine, Zhejiang cuisine, Hunan cuisine, and Anhui cuisine. Did you try it when you were in Hangzhou last time?"

Watson: "..." Is it too late to settle in China now?

Sherlock didn't intend to participate in it at first, but after thinking about the eight major cuisines, he still nodded solemnly: "That's a good idea."

Shia laughed, 4 votes!

The helpless Mycroft: "..."

Misread you, Sherlock!
