25, cook 24

The dish in front of me was semicircular and was pressed upside down in the bowl, and it was steaming with heat, and the sweet fragrance of rice wine was faintly emitted, but it was not strong. That was because the glutinous rice flour wrapped in the outer layer had fermented in the jar and was more sticky, so it tightly locked the aroma of the inner layer.

Wei Yuanhou used chopsticks to peel off the outer layer of glutinous rice flour, and a unique smell came to his face, which not only stunned him, but even the onlookers made an unbearable commotion. It was just because the aroma was too strong and strong, which combined the aroma of wine, grass and wood, marinade, meat, and a very light scent of soybean. The aroma was layered, but it did not appear messy at all, but instead deepened the desire for food by others.

What is a delicacy? A dish with a combination of colors, fragrance and taste is called a delicacy. The dish made by Lin Dan doesn't look obvious and smells ordinary. However, when you peel off the glutinous rice outside and reveal the tightly locked aroma, the dish seems to have a soul instantly.

Because the green ice jade slices are soaked in marinade, the thinner parts have been dyed a little red, which looks like delicate petals. The oil in the meat is pushed out bit by bit by bit by bit by bit and penetrates into the bright brown glutinous rice flour, making the two ingredients stick together tightly, with meat in the powder and powder in the meat, which is very tasty.

Wei Yuanhou picked up a piece of ice jade meat slices wrapped in glutinous rice flour, and then opened his eyes in surprise after taking a bite. No, the meat slices were indeed as Lin Dan said, and they had absorbed the wine. After taking a bite, they were like drinking a glass of wine, full of mellow wine aroma. This meat slices were not so much a ingredient as a ingredient, but were filled with the tenderness of the meat, and had a pickled sauce and soy sauce aroma, which was extremely rich in taste. The glutinous rice flour wrapped in the outer layer also had a unique taste, which was originally used for making gravy. It was semi-fermented and was softer and sweeter than ordinary glutinous rice flour.

The sweet, salty, sauce, and brewed tastes were mixed together, but they could not hide the aroma of the wine that became stronger and stronger as they chewed. After entering the throat, there was no burning sensation of the wine. Instead, they felt a warmth in the stomach... Lin Dan actually did such a bizarre request. She used a pair of skilled hands to make the wine into a dish, and the taste was very wonderful. Weiyuanhou couldn't help but look at the other party, and finally went to pick up the cold bean sprouts.

The bean sprouts are also soaked in Liao sausage, with a little pepper and sesame oil mixed in it, biting off the stems, and the wine with a plant-like aroma is flowing out, which is very fresh and refreshing.

Weiyuan Hou had to drink wine when he had to eat. Often, after only two bites of food, his stomach was filled with wine, and then he fell asleep. The emperor asked him to return to Beijing to recuperate, but he became thinner and thinner. This is why. Now, his subordinates saw that he was willing to sit down and eat a meal peacefully, and his appetite looked very good, and he couldn't help but look happy.

He had a very elegant look after chopsticks, but his speed was not slow. In a moment, he had already dried half a plate of steamed pork with wine and steamed pork, and a plate of bean sprouts left with only a little juice. The other diners stared at him with bright eyes and swallowed their saliva. Damn, Manager Lin's skills were so good. He thought that the braised pork she made was the best taste, but he didn't expect that the steamed pork was even more fragrant than braised pork. He only smelled it but couldn't eat it. This was simply the cruelest torture in the world.

Gudong, Gudong, the sound of swallowing saliva sounded one after another in the hall, and others could not hear it. Weiyuan Hou Wuli Gaoqiang could hear it clearly. He raised his head to see what he brought. He was trying hard to pretend to be a serious guard. He couldn't help but turn to look at Lin Dan: "Give me a plate of steamed meat for each of my subordinates."

"Sorry, I have only made one jar of Yang Lin fat, and only one piece of meat. Now you have eaten it." Lin Dan waved his hand helplessly.

"You should brew one warehouse at a time, but you only brew one jar at a time. Why are you so stingy?" Wei Yuanhou stretched out his face, but his tone was much gentler.

"When I go back to Marquis, I am a cook, not a winemaker. I make wine just because I am interested, and I am not specially sold." Lin Dan replied in a humble and arrogant manner.

Wei Yuanhou looked over with his eyes and saw that she was not worried at all. He felt helpless. This meal was so delicious and too much to his taste. He wanted to eat it once and three times... countless times, but he didn't dare to offend the chef.

"Forget it, give each of them a pound of braised meat. Do you have this?"

"Yes, what do you guys want to eat? I have braised pig trotters, braised pig ears, braised pork belly, braised chicken, braised duck... The vegetarian ones include braised tofu, braised lotus root slices, edamame... There are also many flavors, five-spice, spicy, sour, and sweet..." Lin Dan patiently greeted a group of guards. These people were fierce and aggressive just now, but now they all smiled brightly, rushed to the door and looked into the clay pot, with a very covetous expression.

Tang Jiu then left Lin Dan, walked to the opposite side of Weiyuanhou, sat down, picked up chopsticks and picked up food on his own.

Wei Yuanhou quickly held his chopsticks and sneered: "You want to eat yourself."

Tang Jiuli ignored it and continued to pick up food in another direction. Weiyuan Hou continued to surround him. The two of them used chopsticks as swords. They fought back and forth dozens of times, but after the fight came, they actually made a real fire. They just rolled up their sleeves and fucked them directly.

Lin Dan took the time to shout, "Glutinous rice is sticky and difficult to melt. Don't eat too much in the morning. Marquis, you can eat half a plate. If you eat too much, be careful of your stomach ache later."

Wei Yuanhou's stomach had long been eroded by alcohol. When it didn't hurt, it looked normal. When it hurt, it felt like a knife cut, and it was sweating profusely. He was stunned when he heard this. When Tang Jiu realized that, he had already squeezed away all the remaining steamed meat.

"Baby..." He slapped the chopsticks hard on the table, then slowly rolled up his sleeves. But at this moment, Lin Dan walked over with a bowl of porridge and a plate of red and white squares and said in a warm voice: "Drink some porridge before you eat enough, it's best to drink porridge in the morning."

This porridge is not ordinary porridge, but a porridge made with milk soup that has been hung all night. It contains crispy chicken and elbow meat, and mixed with finely cut shepherd's purse leaves. It is white and has a little green color. It looks very beautiful and has a particularly fragrant taste.

Tang Jiu's proud mood instantly broke down and said in a deep voice: "Eat it quickly. This is pheasant soup. According to legend, it was made by Peng Zu. It is known as the best soup in the world and it is very nourishing to the stomach."

Wei Yuanhou's ugly face calmed slightly, and he took a sip of porridge while it was hot, and his eyes immediately lit up. He had to admit that drinking a bowl of hot and thick porridge in the morning was like a baptism for his body that was difficult to heal.

"What is this? The wine smells strong." He pointed to the small plate next to him with chopsticks. Yongding Hou's family was full of foodies, and it would be right to ask them if there were foods they didn't know.

Tang Jiu knew, "This is fermented bean curd, which is also soaked in wine."

Wei Yuanhou tasted a small piece and was immediately conquered by this unique taste. He killed a bowl of porridge at the speed of wind sweeping away the clouds, and his expression was very satisfying. His guards were also ate with oil, and kept giving thumbs up to praise Manager Lin's good skills.

Three quarters of an hour later, Wei Yuanhou put a naked gold ingot on the table and led a group of guards to walk with satisfaction. Halfway through the way, he seemed to remember something, and then walked around again, grabbed the gangsters who had quietly escaped, pressed them in front of the gate of the restaurant in his hometown, and severely broke his legs.

"Shopkeeper Lin, look, this marquis has helped you solve these little flies, your Yang Linfei..."

Before Wei Yuanhou finished speaking, Lin Dan dispersed his hands regretfully: "The jar of wine will take at least another half a year to drink. Now it will be taken out in less than three months, which is already ruined. If the Marquis wants to drink it, he will have to wait another half a year."

Wei Yuanhou's gentle and kind expression froze slightly. He stared at Lin Danmo and grinded his teeth. He finally did not do anything to her. He had to shout to the guards: "Let's go, follow me to suppress the bandits!" Without those bandits who were messing around, how could he be squeezed out by a little girl?

Lin Dan shook her head with laughter and cry, then walked into the store to continue cooking noodles, turning a blind eye to the gangsters who were lying all over the floor. She seemed to have a gentle temper, but she seemed to have less emotions and desires, so how could she pity these people? Tang Jiu asked several people to carry the gangsters away so as not to delay the business in the store.

"Lin Dan, this is your father's relic." He took out a yellowed book from his arms and explained: "Even if Wei Yuanhou did not call him, I plan to tell you the truth today. When I saw you, I recognized you." It was Lin Dan who taught him that a person's character is far more important than ability, and it also made him fall into deep regret and self-blame. So even after ten years, he has never forgotten this stubborn little girl. He has always wanted to know whether the other party is doing well, and how far she can go after rejecting everyone's help.

It turns out that Lin Dan can go far, even further than he imagined.

"Thank you, the prince." Lin Dan took the book and looked through it and found that this was a recipe, which was the second half of the Yan family recipe that her father added.

Tang Jiu explained: "This is what Yan Langqing asked me to hand it over to you. She took away the first sixty pages of the Yan family recipe. She has not made the dish developed by your father in recent years. This is your father's relics and belongs to you."

"Have you ever made a dish developed by my father?" Lin Dan repeated, smiling coldly.

Tang Jiu felt that this smile was a bit strange. Just as he was about to explore, he saw Qin Erniang coming over and said in a vain: "Shopkeeper Lin, you just said you wanted to mix a portion of Qianzhou-flavored braised pork for me, but now you can't count it?" Everyone else was scared away by Weiyuanhou, but she stayed strongly for a few bites.

"Please wait a moment." Once facing the diner, Lin Dan immediately put away his smirk and turned back to the gentle and patient shopkeeper Lin.

Qin Erniang secretly glanced at Tang Jiu, feeling a little worried. She also knew this person, the prince of the Yongding Marquis' Mansion. He had just won a victory and was transferred back to the Ministry of War by the emperor. His sister was also the most favored concubine in the palace. He had no queen on his side, so it could be said that he was extremely powerful.

This restaurant is really amazing. Everyone comes and goes. Fortunately, she didn't offend Manager Lin to death. As soon as she thought of this, she saw a man and a woman walking in at the door. Her facial features were very similar, and she should be brothers and sisters, and there were several servants behind her. It was a coincidence that Qin Erniang knew the man, and she couldn't help but tremble.

Manager Lin is really a hidden person here, and another noble person who cannot be offended is here!
