Chapter 59 Choosing the bitter taste between sweet and salty(2/2)
Luo Jun has already eaten shortbread. Although he is old, his teeth are good and they make a crunching sound, but he doesn't know if they are dentures.
"Room for improvement? There's really no room for improvement in your herbal tea." Luo Jun took a sip of tangerine peel tea and asked, "Did you add sugar to the herbal tea?"
Qin Huai boldly guessed: "Don't you like drinks with added sugar?"
Qin Huai knows that many people believe that herbal tea cannot be boiled with sugar, and the bitterer it is, the more effective it is. For example, Zhao Rong, although she also has a sense of taste, insists that herbal tea should be drunk without sugar, and those who add sugar are heretics.
Except for the seven-flavor dampness-removing tea, that thing tastes really bad without sugar, and is no different from traditional Chinese medicine.
"How can you drink herbal tea without adding sugar? What's the difference between that and drinking traditional Chinese medicine?" Luo Jun said, sitting upright, "It's because you don't know how to cook it."
"Then can you teach me?" Qin Huai looked like he was asking for advice humbly.
Luo Jun paused and said slowly: "You can't make tangerine peel tea by adding rock sugar."
"Gotta add brown sugar and salt."
Qin Huai:......???
What the hell????
Tell me again what to add?
Brown sugar and salt?!
Who makes tangerine peel tea and adds brown sugar and salt?
When cooking, add some salt to taste.
Do you know that the ancestral motto of our Qin family is that you can only add rock sugar when making tangerine peel tea!
At this moment, Qin Huai suddenly felt as if he was listening to others discussing whether the tofu pudding should be eaten sweet or salty, and suddenly someone interrupted and said that you are all wrong, the tofu pudding should not be eaten sweet or salty, it must be bitter!
.
Not the uncle.
I respect you as a 92-year-old man.
But you can't be so heretical.
Add brown sugar and salt to tangerine peel tea. If you say this, the whole Qinjia Village will not agree!
As soon as these words came out, Qu Jing couldn't stand it anymore and said, "You are really messing around. How can you make tea with salt?"
"This is how it should be cooked, so that the tangerine peel tea tastes delicious." Luo Jun said stubbornly, "You young people don't understand at all. This is the secret recipe."
Qin Huai looked at Luo Jun silently.
Luo Jun also looked back at Qin Huai firmly.
"Let's do it." Qin Huai said, "If you insist on adding brown sugar and salt to make tangerine peel tea, I will cook one for you tomorrow afternoon and bring it over for you to drink."
Anyway, this is Luo Jun's own side mission. If he has made up his mind, Qin Huai doesn't think there is much to say.
Just wish him success.
"I'll drink it if I want. Don't bring it to me. I'll drink it in your cafeteria!" Luo Jun said loudly.
The nanny heard this and rushed out: "Mr. Luo, you have to go out tomorrow!"
"Not tomorrow." Luo Jun finished eating shortbread and Dingsheng cake, "I haven't finished watching the TV series yet. I have to watch the TV series tomorrow."
"The day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow in the afternoon I will go to your cafeteria and drink in front of you."
"I want to tell you with practical actions, tangerine peel tea must be boiled with brown sugar and salt!"
As soon as Luo Jun's sonorous and powerful words fell, Chen Huihong walked out of the kitchen with her mobile phone and said: "I have taken inventory. The refrigerator is full of pork, beef, seafood and mutton, and half a chicken. There is no fruit. There is no fruit in the kitchen."
There is only a small handful of green vegetables.”
"Grandpa Luo, you should eat more green vegetables. Eating a lot of fish and meat every day is not good for your stomach." Qu Jing said.
Luo Jun glared at Chen Huihong: "When did you go in to look at the refrigerator?"
"I eat in the canteen now, and the refrigerator is full of ingredients for Xiao Zhang's soup."
"I don't even eat vegetables when I go to the cafeteria." Chen Huihong complained ruthlessly, "I bumped into Xiao Zhang in the cafeteria, and every time he packs three meat and zero vegetables + kelp and pork ribs soup."
"Eat more vegetables." Qu Jing said, "Today's inspection is over. If you want to go out to the canteen the day after tomorrow, I will make a special trip to witness your first outing in 8 months and 13 days this year."
Chen Huihong nodded: "We have to celebrate."
"Many people in our community are betting on whether you will go out this year and whether you can continue to set the record for the longest time without going out in our community."
Luo Jun:......
Luo Jun got up angrily, returned to the room with the cakes in his arms, and shouted loudly: "Xiao Zhang, see the guests off."
Qin Huai:......
"Do you usually communicate like this?"
Luo Jun is 92 years old after all, and he is not afraid of making other people angry.
"Appropriate mood swings are good for blood circulation. Mr. Luo is such a homebody that the number of steps he takes on WeChat every day does not exceed 100. He either sits or lies down. He also likes to order takeout at home. This is also good for his health." Qu Jing
He explained, "I'm usually very busy, and the hospital is a little far away from here, so it's not convenient to come here. I always ask Sister Hong to come and chat with Mr. Luo to arouse his mood."
"A large number of people can liven up the atmosphere. Master Xiao Qin, I think Mr. Luo likes you very much. If you have time, you can come often to chat with Mr. Luo and communicate with him...herbal tea?"
Speaking of this, Qu Jing was a little curious: "Is salt really added to making tangerine peel tea?"
Qin Huai:......
Qin Huai solemnly said: "No, absolutely not!"
"You can make tangerine peel tea without adding sugar, but you can never add salt!"
