Ajinomoto's reputation is getting louder and louder.

Whenever it launches a new dish, it will start promoting it three days in advance, but it won't tell people exactly what the dish is, which makes many gourmet eaters feel itchy.

This time is no exception.

Today is the moment when a new mystery is unveiled, Chao Fang and Wu Qi come together again.

"Chao Yizheng, do you think Ajinomoto's new dishes will be so amazing this time?"

As Wu Qi spoke, he recalled the last time he came here to eat, and his mouth watered.

"Theoretically, it shouldn't be bad. But I just can't figure it out. I heard that the dish this time is made from the most common grass carp. What tricks can be made with this grass carp?"

Chao Fang thought that the most delicious fish was the so-called tuna that was shipped quickly and iced from Dengzhou Prefecture.

That fish dumpling is really unforgettable after eating.

Especially when you add some mustard and soy sauce and put it in your mouth, the spicy and creamy feeling is really an unforgettable enjoyment.

Many people may think that mustard is a specialty of the island country, but it is not.

Mustard is native to my country and has a very long history.

Records show that it has been eaten in the palace since the Zhou Dynasty.

This slightly bitter, but spicy and fragrant thing with a very unique taste can be used as pickles and pickles when pickling raw meat.

However, no one has ever done this before, such as eating Ajinomoto with fish fillet.

Wu Qi: "Yeah, it's not like we haven't eaten grass carp before. Whether it's boiled, steamed, or made into fish meat, the taste is just the same."

For ordinary people, eating fish is a luxury.

But for Chao Fang and Wu Qi, grass carp, a freshwater fish that can be caught everywhere, can still be eaten every now and then.

"Eunuch Wu, it seems we don't need to worry about it anymore. The waiter has already started serving the food."

At this moment, several waiters appeared in the lobby carrying a large copper basin.

Chao Fang and Wu Qi always like to enjoy food in the lobby. The lively feeling makes them feel that the food is more delicious.

"Chao Yizheng, Eunuch Wu, your boiled pickled fish is here!"

Chao Fang and Wu Qi are also regular customers of Ajinomoto. As a successful waiter, you must not only be familiar with the various dishes in your restaurant, but also keep the status of old customers in mind.

Just like Wu Qi, when he ordered beef with soy sauce, when the waiter brought it to him, he specifically said, "Eunuch Wu, I know you like your beef to be cooked more tender. I specially asked the kitchen to cook more of this braised beef for you."

A quarter of an hour."

Just such a simple conversation gave Wu Qi a great impression of Ajinomoto.

Nowadays, he rarely goes to Wuheju or Diandude.

Whenever he goes out to eat, Ajinomoto is his first choice.

“Boiled pickled fish?”

Chao Fang repeated the words of the waiter in his mouth. He watched the waiter put the copper basin and opened the lid. White fish fillets were floating in the basin. A unique fragrance came from his nose. Inexplicably, this dish seemed ordinary.

It's an unusual dish and gives me a little more to look forward to.

"Doctor Chao, come on, pick up your chopsticks. This pot of boiled pickled fish is full of color, flavor and flavor. It looks very appetizing."

After Wu Qi finished speaking, he picked up the chopsticks without politeness, picked up a piece of fish fillet and put it into his mouth.

"Well, the meat of this fish fillet is fresh and tender, and the texture is smooth and tender. It seems to melt in your mouth. It tastes oily but not greasy, and is naturally delicious. This Ajinomoto product does not disappoint."

Wu Qi was truly impressed that he could make ordinary grass carp so delicious.

Just like when I ordered Dude's boiled cabbage before, the simpler the ingredients, the harder it is to make delicious food.

This boiled pickled fish is destined to become a widely popular dish.

"The aroma of fish is overflowing, and the flavor of pepper is overwhelming. For this dish, you should use hot oil to fry the Sichuan pepper until fragrant, then add sliced ​​ginger and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant. Then add the pickled cabbage into the pot and stir-fry until the fragrance comes out.

"

Chao Fang is truly a foodie.

After just one simple taste, I guessed a lot about how to make boiled pickled fish.

In fact, Ajinomoto has no plans to make boiled pickled fish its own exclusive dish.

It is enough to let everyone know that this dish was first launched in Ajinomoto and give everyone the impression that Ajinomoto's dishes are the most innovative.

Of course, this has a lot to do with Li Kuan's desire to vigorously promote the consumption of grass carp, crucian carp and other grass carps.

Whether an ingredient is a hot seller is closely related to how many dishes it can be used to make, and whether it tastes good or not.

"This grass carp should have more bones, but I ate several mouthfuls of fish meat in succession, and I didn't eat any bones at all, which is amazing."

Wu Qi picked up his chopsticks and quickly ate a lot of fish fillets.

At this moment, he also realized that the chef's knife skills were very good.

"That's true, but what makes people feel wonderful is the addition of the peppercorns, which gives the fish fillet an extra tingling feeling, which makes people want to stop eating."

Chao Fang has always believed that the lighter the fish, the more delicious it is, so when eating fish, he basically only eats fish meat.

However, today, this view has been overturned.

The boiled pickled fish in front of me obviously has various side dishes added to it, which is nothing compared to the lightness.

However, this method, which is contrary to my own understanding, is infinitely delicious.

"And the addition of sauerkraut is also a stroke of genius. I didn't expect that sauerkraut, which is only eaten in ordinary people's homes, can also be used in refined dishes."

"After I go back today, I have to ask the cook at home to try this method of boiling pickled fish. You can eat this dish every day."

Grass carp is now the cheapest fish in Chang'an City.

To be more precise, grass carp meat is the cheapest meat in Chang'an City today.

You can buy a fresh grass carp for just one penny. This was something that was unimaginable in previous years, but now it is happening in front of everyone.

Many poor people even buy fish as their staple food.

Suddenly, the food sales in the West Market hit a small trough.

…

At the door of Wuheju, looking at the increasingly prosperous Ajinomoto next to him, Pan Wang showed a bitter smile on his face.

I just finished thinking through the new dishes launched by Wuheju a while ago, and now they have a new variety.

Repeatedly like this, many regular customers have moved to the other side.

Even Wuheju has followed suit and launched VIP cards, but it has not been able to completely reverse this trend.

Fortunately, Chang'an City has become more and more prosperous in recent years, and more and more people are hanging out in the wine shops.

In addition, the three top restaurants in Chang'an City, Ajinomoto, Diandudou and Wuheju, are gathered here, attracting a lot of people, and Wuheju's business has not declined significantly.

However, it is becoming increasingly difficult to surpass the previous two companies.

"Shopkeeper, I heard there's nothing special about the boiled fish. Except for the peppercorns, which are a little more expensive, the rest are cheap. The nobles are just looking for something new today, and they may not like it so much in the future."

An old man comforted his shopkeeper with sincere words.

"Wuheju can no longer follow them. If we follow them like this, we will never be able to surpass them."

Pan Wang ignored the waiter's words and made his own decision in his heart.

In the words of the monk, he had an epiphany.

Ajinomoto relied entirely on its various innovative dishes to firmly dominate Wuheju, and Diantou followed a similar path.

Then why can’t I innovate?

The previous thinking was still too narrow.

From now on, I have to change my thinking.

Ajinomoto and Diantoku are good at using ordinary ingredients to create extraordinary dishes.

Then use unusual ingredients to make extraordinary dishes.

"Let's go to the West Market with me."

Pan Wang had an idea in his mind and took action immediately.

You can always find some special ways to prepare delicacies from mountains and seas, which will make people forget to come back.

…

In the Daming Palace.

"Princess, I heard that Ajinomoto launched a very delicious dish yesterday."

Although Gao Yang had a lot of opinions about Fang Yiai, when Fang Yiai did the opposite and stopped licking her, she instead made people pay attention to things related to him.

And this Ajinomoto is the most typical thing related to Fang Yiai.

"Hmph, if the second brother hadn't helped him, where would Fang Erlang have the ability?"
