Chapter 167 The Taste That Soothes the Soul

Seeing the real dishes being served, even though they were some dishes he was not familiar with, at least it represented that this place was really a restaurant connected to countless worlds as the message said.

Hu Zhou was really hungry after going through a few times of thrilling and coming out of the ice and snow.

After pouring a glass of water using a water dispenser, which seemed rather strange to him, he was waiting for the food to be served, and it was just in time for him to have an extra plate of lo mei.

It can also show that Zhao Youqian has opened a restaurant for a while, and his eyes have been trained to know what diners need most at the moment.

Don't look at this as an inconspicuous ability, but sometimes whether customers will come again and how they comment on your store are all reflected in these inconspicuous places.

Of course, the restaurants still have to speak their minds after all, otherwise there wouldn't be so many hot fly restaurants and roadside stalls.

The pile of stewed vegetables placed in front of Hu Zhou has a rich sauce color and a rather restrained aroma, but there is a crystal luster flowing on it that cannot be ignored.

It seemed to whet his appetite!

Swallowing his saliva, this young but Confucian-style young scholar still has his own speed and rhythm even though he is already hungry.

After arranging the chopsticks and the bowl, he picked up a slice of lotus root, looked at it first, and made sure that the faintly glittering light was not his illusion, and then put it into his mouth with a trace of hesitation.

'this! ! '

There seemed to be the brilliance of the sun and the moon bursting out of his eyes, almost lighting up the entire All Heavens Restaurant for a moment, and even Zhao Youqian, who had been cooking, was startled, but after a quick look, he found that it was caused by Hu Zhou, so there was no Read more.

People who can come to Zhutian Xiaoguan more or less have two brushes, but it's so strange that the eyes are bright like light bulbs.

Lowering his head to continue cooking the copied soy sauce, Zhao Youqian acted carelessly, but it doesn't mean that this young man who called himself Hu Zhou would calm down so easily.

‘It’s such a strong umami taste. I tasted the entangled taste of several spices in it, but the sweetness of the lotus root slices has not been destroyed. It has a crispy and waxy taste. Is this really a dish that people can make? '

‘Even the legendary royal chef is hard to come by, right? ! '

The young scholar who originally had some doubts about the existence of this place finally began to accept the Zhutian Xiaoguan, but he had more doubts in his heart.

Who on earth established such a place, and why was he chosen to be a diner here?

I was puzzled in my heart, but the chopsticks in my hand didn't stop for a moment.

After tasting the lotus root slices, there are bean curds and then beef. The taste of each kind of braised vegetables seems to come from one body, but they are different.

It's like a sea made of marinade, where all kinds of creatures live.

Hu Zhou who couldn't stop, when he came back to his senses, the plate in front of him had been swept away.

There are traces of marinade on the corner of the mouth.

Even when he was obsessed with tasting, he still maintained his own rhythm, quite elegant.

But just eating up a stack of stewed vegetables like this still made him a little embarrassed, and a blush of embarrassment appeared on his face.

But at this time, a strong smell of soy sauce slowly wafted out, which made his expression change, and he stood up in shock.

"This taste!"

"This taste is exactly what I was looking for!"

Came to the kitchen in disbelief, and saw Zhao Youqian swinging an iron spoon, constantly stirring the black liquid in the iron pot, in which there were ingredients that could not be seen clearly, but a scent of fragrance had already wafted.

Gently stirring the cooking ingredients, Zhao Youqian looked at Hu Zhou dressed as a scholar in surprise.

"Then your family conditions are not bad, if you can eat this kind of taste."

"I used pears and peaches to cook together."

Instead of using brown sugar, it was replaced with fruit. This is actually similar to the practice of Xianzu barbecue soy sauce. Zhao Youqian changed it here to add the sweetness and fragrance of fruit to the soy sauce taste of lard noodles. Neutralizes the thick taste of rich lard.

Although it is necessary to release the taste of lard, it is knowledge to know when to pull off the thick and slight pull to keep the balance in the mouth.

For this reason, Zhao Youqian chose vegetables and fruits, including coriander, green onions, and other things, and he would add some lemon juice after the soy sauce was cooked.

Also because of these things, even after refrigeration, this type of soy sauce can only be stored for about a week, which is still very different from ordinary soy sauce.

Of course, after this kind of soy sauce is brewed, the unique taste is also amazing, especially when it is used for dry or cold dishes, it is a perfect match!

Hearing Zhao Youqian's words, Hu Zhou was taken aback for a moment, then showed a look of sadness or resentment, and then disappeared again.

Aware of this, Zhao Youqian knew that he had mentioned Hu Zhou's sadness, so he showed a little embarrassing smile, didn't say any more, and focused on making soy sauce.

Boil slowly over low heat and stir gently so that the skin of the fruits and vegetables cannot be broken, but the flavor must be fully integrated into the soy sauce. This method is not as random as it seems, and it also involved a lot of Zhao Yougan's effort.

Finally, half an hour later, the soy sauce was completely boiled. When Zhao Youqian added lemon juice, a strange fragrance lingered in Zhutian Restaurant.

‘It’s different, but why is it so familiar? '

This kind of smell is unfamiliar to Hu Zhou, but there is something very familiar to him in the strange smell, which makes him feel puzzled.

Ignoring the mysterious diner's thoughts, Zhao Youqian started to refine lard by the way.

No more, no less, three taels is enough for the best fat meat.

Put the snow-white fat meat into the cold pot, add a spoonful of water, and simmer it on a slow fire until the fat is oily and the golden oil residue is refined. Zhao Youqian nodded, turned off the fire and put the noodles Bring over the big bowl.

A spoonful of lard, a few slices of golden and crispy oil residue, and a few emerald green scallions.

The plain-looking lard noodles are already served with a strong aroma.

Hu Zhou watched the noodles come up with a plate of dried radish and capers beside him, showing a look of surprise.

"Don't look at the white noodles, the soy sauce has been put on the bottom, if you think the taste is too monotonous, you can use dried radish or capers to make it up."

Zhao Yougan looked into Hu Zhou's eyes and knew what he was thinking.

He scooped out a bowl of the half-boiled broth. The already flavorful soup was a bit bland, but it was suitable for eating with lard noodles.

The noodles are translucent white, with a hint of crystal lard aroma, scattered oil residue and green onion embellishment, served with a small bowl of broth and attached side dishes.

It seemed to be a simple meal in an ordinary family, which made Hu Zhou's eyes red for some reason.

Just smelling the smell of noodles already made his mind agitated and it was hard to hold back!
