522. Hand-caught mutton

Seeing that Jiujiu's current situation was not too serious, Li Xiao brought the prepared milk to Jiujiu and watched with his own eyes as it drank most of the milk before he breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon, Li Xiaoming’s meal was delivered.

Pushing the dining cart into the room, opening the lid, I sighed to myself that this was indeed a five-star hotel.

A plate of creamy pumpkin soup, a sirloin steak, a Margherita pizza, a pasta, and a seasonal fruit platter.

Dishes were placed on the table one after another, and Li Xiao's heavy heart was soothed by the aroma of the food on the table.

After finishing lunch, Li Xiao waited for the package from the errand boy.

The bag with the strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine made Jiujiu, who had originally wanted to hold Li Xiao and act coquettishly for a while, stop rushing towards him, and the next moment he quickly rolled away from Li Xiao.

Li Xiao watched the tweet's movements with a wry smile and walked towards the kitchen.

Chop the orange cake into pieces, put it into the pot with the rice, and simmer it for two hours. A bowl of orange cake porridge that regulates qi and stomach is freshly baked.

Today I will start by cutting off Chiujiu's molar stick. If there is no other abnormality, let him take it tomorrow morning and observe the follow-up situation.

As for now, he should go out to "forage".

······

When he came to the street and looked around at restaurants selling hand-caught mutton, Li Xiao felt like Xiang Yu being ambushed from all sides.

Of course, it was not Liu Bang’s army that was ambushing him, but the mutton-grabbing “army.”

I turned on the camera and took pictures of the surrounding area. As soon as the audience in the live broadcast room came in, they were shocked by the array of scenes around them.

"This place is too obvious! Lanzhou xx Street?"

"Oh, I just saw the hand-caught mutton here last month. Is the host going to check in on this too today?"

Li Xiao nodded: "Do you have any recommended stores?"

"The anchor should not ask us, but should look at which store has the most customers!"

"Yes, yes, I saw a small-looking mutton shop on the right behind you, host, but there were quite a few customers inside. Why don't you go there and try it?"

Seeing this barrage, Li Xiao looked in that direction and shook his head: "That store looks like there are a lot of people, but the atmosphere looks like it is for team building, so the reference value is not very great."

At this time, several children looked curiously in this direction, which made Li Xiao's eyes light up.

"Try asking the locals."

"Children, do you know which hand-caught mutton shop has the best food?" Li Xiao squatted down with a smile and asked a little girl with two braids that reached the sky.

The girl looked at the camera in Li Xiao's hand eagerly and pointed in one direction.

"Are your parents also selling hand-caught mutton?" Li Xiao asked curiously.

"Yes." The little girl nodded.

"Is the hand-caught mutton in your store delicious?" Li Xiao asked again.

This time, the girl shook her head in the negative.

"Then how do you know that the hand-caught mutton in that store is delicious?" The girl shook her head and made Li Xiao dumbfounded.

Should I say that I am really worthy of being a child, that I am tired of the taste of my own food?

"That shop is opened by my uncle, and he was the chef during our Chinese New Year last year. The mutton he makes is soft and fragrant, and tastes better than the salty chunks of meat at my house." The girl pointed to her baby teeth, which were waxy.

Nuo Di Road.

"That's it, thank you little sister."

Li Xiao said goodbye to the little girl, turned around and walked in the direction of the little girl's finger.

After a pause, he started to ask the live broadcast room: "Which one do you think I should go to?"

"Just what the little sister said, let's help her uncle!" The number of likes in the rapidly passing barrage remained high, which was exactly what Li Xiao wanted, and he came to the store the little girl mentioned.

.

It has an antique decoration, and you can see part of the kitchen through the cashier window at a glance from the door.

"It seems that a lot of effort has been put into the decoration of this store. From here, it can be seen that the hygiene in the back kitchen is pretty good."

Li Xiao found a seat and sat down, and a waiter quickly brought over a rich fruit plate.

Rock sugar, wolfberry, and red dates were all spread out on the entire plate.

"please."

The fruit plate was not enough, so the uncle put down a large tea bowl in front of Li Xiao and thoughtfully filled it with hot water.

As soon as the hot water entered the cup, the rich sweet smell rushed into Li Xiao's nose.

Taking a closer look, in addition to some tea leaves, the ingredients also include those in the fruit plate on the table.

"This is?"

"Three Fortresses will be served with finger food later. This is a bowl of tea." Filling the tea bowl with hot water and pushing it in front of Li Xiao, the waiter introduced and handed the menu to Li Xiao's hand.

As soon as the thick menu is opened, it is full of mutton, which looks both fat and thin, making people drool at a glance.

Seeing that Li Xiao didn't know what to choose, the uncle explained to him: "These are just different parts of mutton on the menu, and the specific methods are the same."

"Can uncle recommend some parts to me?"

"Young man, it's good to eat lamb neck! You know." The uncle said cheerfully.

As a boy, I instantly understood what the uncle meant, touched my nose awkwardly, and nodded.

"Then let's order the lamb neck. If it's not enough, we can continue."

"Okay!" After putting away the menu, the uncle shouted angrily to the kitchen.

"By the way, does the store mind if I take a photo of how the kitchen cooks?"

"I don't mind, I don't mind." The uncle smiled generously, put the towel on his shoulders, and headed towards the kitchen.

Li Xiao picked up the camera and followed closely.

The two uncles worked together to place a large pot of semi-finished mutton on the kitchen counter. Li Xiao saw with his own eyes that the plump mutton trembled the moment it was put on it.

Next to the chef just now, a bucket of scalding hot soup was simmering inside.

Star anise, bay leaves, Sichuan peppercorns, cumin, cinnamon... Several spices are boiling in the pot, and the hot aroma coming from them makes Li Xiao's tongue continue to secrete saliva.

The chef pierced the muttons, put them in the pot and started boiling them.

"The mutton has been cooked with ginger slices before. Now it is cooked again to blend the aroma into the mutton."

The chef introduced it to Li Xiao who looked curious.

By the time I said that, the mutton was almost cooked.

With the sound of "bang", "bang" and "bang", a large piece of mutton was divided into five or six pieces under the chef's knife. Each piece was half the size of Li Xiao's palm.

Li Xiao returned to his seat, waiting for his lamb neck to be served.

Compared with Li Xiao, the audience in the live broadcast room seemed even more excited:

"Seeing my uncle chop open such a big and thick piece of mutton in just a few strokes, I really envy his arm strength."

"Seeing that the camera was foggy and full of heat, I could imagine how exaggerated it was that the anchor was facing personally."

"Make more, anchor, come on and eat! We are waiting for your meal!"

"That's enough for you upstairs!"
