Ah Fu was extremely happy. He was an old employee who had eaten the food cooked by Sun Dahai himself. He knew that Sun Dahai was not only good at cooking, but also a good eater.
Although Sun Dahai is not very particular about eating, he just needs to be clean and well-fed. But when he came to Xiangjiang to talk about things in the office building previously rented by the company, many times he would eat take-out lunches together like everyone else.
However, Ah Fu felt that since Sun Dahai liked to make delicious food, he would naturally not refuse delicious food. If he could use more snacks in his meals, he would probably be able to please Sun Dahai.
Lao Zhai's food stall was carefully selected by Ah Fu. Now that he can be praised by Sun Dahai, it can be regarded as living up to his good intentions.
Cao Yue felt a little uncomfortable. After she was half full, she wanted to grab a few snails while waiting for the soup, but was stopped by her doula, Xin Dina.
Not only did she not eat the snails, she also refused to eat the sixty-year-old and thin-shelled clams. The thin-shelled clams are actually plum clams, also called flat clams. Because the shape and size are similar to melon seeds, northerners call them sea melon seeds.
This thing is similar to a snail. It’s not even a vegetable. It eats a lot of shells and doesn’t eat much meat in total. People basically won’t feel uncomfortable eating these things. It’s just a snack to kill time.
Unfortunately, these shellfish are very unfriendly to pregnant women, especially elderly pregnant women like Cao Yue who live inland. Not only are they cold in nature, but most of them are hairy, not to mention the parasites they contain.
.
Under Xin Dina's uncompromising gaze, Cao Yue could only obey her words honestly.
Xin Dina advised Cao Yue that if her stomach is not very full, she can eat more beef or pee shrimp. These are foods that are very beneficial to pregnant women.
However, Cao Yue does not care about these things at all. Since becoming pregnant, she has really eaten a lot of beef, black-bone chicken, fish and shrimp, which are highly nutritious ingredients suitable for pregnant women.
Especially shrimps. Ever since the rice field three-dimensional culture research group studied shrimp farming in rice fields in 1982, the family has never run out of shrimps every summer and autumn. In Cao Yue's words, eating shrimps makes you sick.
Cao Yue knew that everyone was doing it for his own good, so he could only grumble and complain. But Sun Dahai couldn't control Cao Yue. He was busy helping his younger brothers and sisters peel the peeing shrimps.
Children should not eat too much shellfish, so the second child now mainly eats peeing shrimp.
When he was at home, Sun Dahai rarely made Pipi shrimps. He always thought it was too troublesome to peel Pipi shrimps. The meat of Pipi shrimps was relatively less and more tender, which was not in line with Sun Dahai's habit of eating meat.
Habit.
The second child was greatly influenced by Sun Dahai and was very close to him in eating habits. When eating shrimp, he loved braised prawns, especially large prawns.
Now that there is no other choice, we can only make do with the Pipi shrimps. Fortunately, this batch of Pee Pee shrimps are very fresh and are much larger than the Pipi shrimps in the north.
Lao Zhai is very good at cooking. The steamed pee shrimps he made were very well controlled and tasted very delicious with the dipping sauce he prepared.
It's just that eating shrimps and crabs takes some effort. Especially the peeing shrimps (pipi shrimps). The second youngest's hands were cut open. Sun Dahai felt sorry for them, so he took it upon himself to help him.
Peel two shrimps.
At this time, the soup was ready. The proprietress and her daughter worked together and brought up two large casseroles, followed by spoons and small bowls.
Not to mention, the soups in Cantonese cuisine are really unique. Even the soups made by roadside food stalls like Lao Zhai’s are very delicious.
Making soup is not only about drinking the soup, but you can also eat the soup ingredients. The soup making in Lao Zhai's family is very practical. In the large casserole in front of Sun Dahai, there is enough soup, which takes up nearly half of the space of the casserole.
Sun Dahai took out a piece of chicken and put it in his mouth. At this time, the chicken used as the soup had been stewed to a pulp. When paired with other soups and seasonings, it was extremely delicious, which greatly stimulated Sun Dahai's taste buds.
satisfy.
Cao Yue stopped mumbling at this time, not only drank a large bowl of soup, but also asked Xin Dina to help her get a bowl of soup ingredients, and ate it happily.
Even the second child drank a small bowl of each soup. Their stomachs are probably round now.
Under Ah Fu's strong suggestion, everyone ordered a few more portions of Lao Zhai's rice noodles. Sun Dahai looked at the large plate of rice noodles that Lao Zhai made for other customers. Four more portions would be enough.
.
The group of people who ate late night snacks were all carnivores. The vegetarian fried rice noodles with eggs were naturally ignored by everyone. Not counting Erxiao, who had lost his fighting power, and Cao Yue, who was on a controlled diet, the remaining seven people
, they may not be able to finish the four large plates of fried beef river.
The dish of dry-fried beef river is known as the touchstone for masters of Cantonese cuisine. The quality of their basic skills will be clearly demonstrated by making this dish.
Lao Zhai is really good at making this most famous home-cooked dish in Cantonese cuisine, which is both delicious and delicious. The large piece of beef is tender and fragrant, the rice noodles are chewy and flavorful, and the whole dish is oily and shiny, but the bottom of the dish is dry and juiceless.
, which truly reflects the characteristics of this dish.
It was around ten o'clock in the evening, when the food stalls next to the Pearl River Causeway had the most customers. By this time, Sun Dahai and his party were already full.
The meal only cost a few dozen yuan. It included chicken, duck, beef, vegetables, shrimp, and seafood. It was enough for ten people. Prices in the 1980s were really cheap.
After eating and drinking, everyone did not go back to the hotel directly, but walked along the bank of the Pearl River to eat. The food stalls here were one after another, and the customers were also bustling. It was very lively along the way.
In 1987, in Yangcheng, many outsiders came here to work and make a living. "People from east to west, south, north, and middle, get rich in Guangdong" is not an empty talk in this era.
The threshold of the special zone is high, and you need to apply for a special zone pass before entering. The inspection inside the special zone is very strict, and once someone without a certificate is found...
Therefore, many outsiders abandoned the SAR and came to cities near the SAR. Therefore, the Pearl River Delta region can be said to be the leader in domestic economic development.
The influx of a large number of outsiders not only filled the workshop assembly lines of various factories and enterprises, but also various commercial service industries developed accordingly.
Take the food stalls along the Pearl River as an example. Many of the stall owners are outsiders. Fish balls and hot pot paste from Fujian Province, Chaoshou, Dandan noodles and Malatang from the Land of Abundance, stinky tofu and sugar-oiled cakes from Hunan Province, etc.
etc., can be found in food stalls on the roadside.
It's a pity that now everyone really has no room in their stomachs. Otherwise, I don't know how much more food I would eat in my mouth along the way.
At night in Yangcheng, as the temperature drops, the whole city seems to be revitalized and becomes more alive. The lights on both sides of the Pearl River reflect the scene of a city that never sleeps.
