After selecting the fish, Ye Gui came to his seat and sat down.
In addition to fish in sour soup, he also ordered some barbecue.
"Just order this much. In addition to the fish in sour soup, the barbecue in your province is also one of the best!"
Ye Gui closed the menu and put the phone at a good angle.
"Speaking of fish in sour soup, there is actually another allusion!"
"The Miao compatriots love to eat sour food. In the Miao villages in your province, there is a saying that if you don't eat sour food for three days, you will walk in circles. This circle refers to walking weakly!"
“This also shows how much the locals love eating sour food!”
"According to legend, in ancient times, there lived a girl named Ana in Miaoling Mountain. She was not only beautiful, good at singing and dancing, but also could brew fine wine. The wine had the fragrance of orchids and was as clear as mountain springs."
"Young men from hundreds of miles around come to woo each other. To every woo, the girl will pour a bowl of wine she brewed. If the man who is not attracted to him eats the bowl of wine, he will only feel that the taste is very sour and his heart will feel cold, but he will
Don’t want to leave!”
"This must be dog licking!"
"When the night approaches, the reeds are played and folk songs are played. The young men call the girl to meet her with folk songs in front of and behind the house. The girl has no choice but to sing through the fence, 'Sour soup, sour man, sour man, listen to my sister.
Come and be warm; betel nuts bear no fruit in March, orchids have no fragrance in September, mountain springs with affection turn into fine wine, and fine wine without mercy turns into sour soup...'"
"The original sour soup was made with the tail wine after brewing, and later it was changed to hot rice soup through natural fermentation and many other methods!"
"The master's recipe I had back then was to make sour soup with rice wine, but he also added an exclusive formula to it when making the sour soup. The taste of that sour soup was really fragrant for dozens of miles.
, everyone who smells it can’t help but salivate!”
"Even I ate three bowls of rice!"
Ye Gui's face was full of nostalgia and intoxication.
"And the rice field carp. The so-called rice field carp is the carp raised in the rice fields!"
"In many places, there is a saying of ecological farms. Rice is grown in water. When raising rice, carp are raised in the water. These carps usually eat the microorganisms in the paddy field and the rice that falls from the rice. The crucian carp raised in this way
Somewhere between wild and domestic!”
"Perhaps because they grew up eating rice, the spines of these carp are very easy to pick out, and the fish meat still has a rice flavor!"
"After this kind of rice-flavored fish meat is boiled in sour soup, the rice aroma and the sour soup flavor mix together, it's simply a sound of heaven!"
As Ye Gui said, the waiter had already brought the bottom of the pot.
The moment the waiter opened the lid, a tantalizing sour smell hit his face.
Green peppercorns and nine-story pagodas float on the bright red soup.
"This red soup!"
Ye Gui smelled it carefully: "It smells of tomatoes. I remember your previous sour soup was not made from yellow rice? Why did you serve me sour soup made from tomatoes?"
“But others use golden sour soup!”
The waiter smiled and said, "Master God of Cookery, let our boss tell you this!"
As he spoke, a middle-aged man in his early forties came over.
"Lord God of Cookery!"
Ye Gui recognized that this person was Li Yan, the son of the master Li Mulong.
"Mr. Li, it's been five years since we last said goodbye!"
Ye Gui also stood up and greeted the other party.
Li Yan cupped his hands and said, "Yes, it's been five years. When I heard that you were resigning three years ago, I looked for you for a long time, but I didn't expect that you were in Jiangcheng!"
"If you change your way of living, you will regret it if you find that you have only taken one path at the end of your life. Isn't it the same with Mr. Li? Your talent is not inferior to that of Master Li, and you finally embarked on the road of business!"
“Haha, one more road and one more choice. I went on a trip before and saw a sign selling authentic Kaili fish in sour soup. When I went in, I found that it was red soup. I was ready to cook it.
But after I ate it, I found that the taste of red soup and sour soup was no worse than that of golden soup, so I bought that recipe and combined it with my father’s recipe to make this red soup and sour soup.
!”
Li Yan asked Ye Gui to sit down: "I was going to change the bottom of the pot at that time, but I happened to hear that you were out of the mountains, so I was waiting to give you a taste test first, and then help us see if there is anything we can improve!"
"It's a dream come true. Master Li's sour soup recipe is exactly what I want for this state banquet dish. If it's tomato fermentation, maybe foreigners will like it!"
As Ye Gui said, the waiter had already brought the cleaned carp over.
The method of handling this carp is also very simple. Scrape all the scales clean, then cut off the tail, fins and dorsal fins, and then make three cuts on the front and back of the fish to make it easier to taste.
Cut off the fish's teeth and gills, then use chopsticks to poke it into the fish's mouth, all the way to its stomach.
Then with a gentle stir, all the internal organs were taken out. www.bǐqυgetν.℃ǒm
If you eat carp, you should also pull off the fishing line on the back of the fish. This can remove the earthy smell.
Because this carp is rice field fish and has no earthy smell, this step is omitted and the fish meat can be made firmer.
The waiter put the fish meat into the red soup.
This fish was obviously slaughtered not long ago, and its nerve reactions were still there. It even turned over after entering the soup.
When the pot comes to a boil, the strong tomato sour soup with a faint numbing smell of peppercorns and the fragrance of the nine-story pagoda immediately lingers in everyone's taste buds.
"Master God of Cookery, the fish in sour soup is ready, please use it!"
