Before Xia Xiaoyu could say anything, Liu Qiyu on the side immediately whispered to Xia Xiaoyu:
"Don't bet with them. This is French foie gras. I've eaten it countless times. If you bet, you'll be humiliating yourself..."
Liu Qiyu kindly advised me.
Although her voice was not loud, Xue Chengyuan and Qin Zhaotian could still hear her words clearly as everyone was at the same table.
Then she saw Xue Chengyuan's small eyes, rolled them at her, and said sinisterly:
"Little girl of the Liu family, you should learn your medical skills from your grandfather and stop messing around here..."
Although Mr. Liu's financial resources are not as good as those of these big families in Jiangcheng.
But he has excellent medical skills and has basically diagnosed diseases for people from various families.
Therefore, Xue Chengyuan was quite polite to Liu Qiyu.
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Qiyu immediately rolled his eyes at Xue Chengyuan and said dissatisfied:
"Why can't I speak? You guys are just looking at him because he hasn't eaten yet, so you gang up to bully others..."
Before he finished speaking, Xia Xiaoyu suddenly said:
"Okay, I'll make a bet with you. But I want you to add one more..."
Upon hearing Xia Xiaoyu's agreement, Xue Chengyuan immediately narrowed his eyes and said proudly:
"Okay, tell me, what to add?"
Looking at Xue Chengyuan, Xia Xiaoyu said slowly:
"I have a friend who opened a small bar on Bar Street. But recently, your people have stopped supplying alcohol. If I win, you must restore their supply of alcohol immediately!"
When Xue Chengyuan heard this, he laughed and said:
"No problem, even if you lose, I will recover it for you! How about I be particular about it?"
In Xue Chengyuan's eyes, those things on the bar street are as small as sesame seeds and mung beans.
He doesn't care at all.
What he wants now is for Xia Xiaoyu to make a fool of himself in public.
After all, he had heard that Qi Yunjie had suffered losses from Xia Xiaoyu.
If he kills Xia Xiaoyu, it will prove that he is better than Qi Yunjie!
The children of big families like them actually compete with each other.
Seeing that Xia Xiaoyu had agreed, Qin Zhaotian immediately waved to the waiter and shouted:
"Waiter, go and ask the chef for this dish to me. The sooner the better!"
Qin Zhaotian couldn't wait any longer. He really wanted to see Xia Xiaoyu crawling on the ground and barking like a dog.
Thinking about this scene, he felt happy!
After a while, the waiter came over with the chef.
When the guests at the surrounding tables saw the betting, they all gathered around and watched the excitement.
As soon as he arrived, Qin Zhaotian asked him anxiously without waiting for the chef to speak:
"Master, what kind of dish is this?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes were focused on the chef.
Because his words are related to the outcome of the gamble.
Looking at this dish, the chef asked with some confusion:
"French foie gras, what's wrong with that?"
The chef's words made the people around him burst into laughter.
Everyone was laughing at how Xia Xiaoyu dared to make a bet without even knowing French foie gras!
Liu Qiyu even complained to Xia Xiaoyu in a low voice:
"I already told you that you are not allowed to bet with them, but you are still trying to show off. Why are you such a jerk!"
Qin Zhaotian couldn't even close his mouth when he smiled.
He glared at Xia Xiaoyu and deliberately barked like a dog:
"Woof woof! Haha, come on, Xia Xiaoyu, no, I should call you Xia Xiaoyu!"
Xue Chengyuan also laughed.
His eyes were originally small, but when he smiled, they narrowed into a slit.
Xia Xiaoyu was neither anxious nor annoyed. He raised his head and looked at Xue Chengyuan and Qin Zhaotian. He said slowly:
"Don't worry, the chef probably hasn't finished speaking yet..."
As he spoke, he looked up at the chef.
But the chef was still confused, he had no idea what was happening.
He stood there, motionless and silent.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Xia Xiaoyu looked at the chef and said slowly:
"Mr. Chef, French foie gras is very particular about the selection of ingredients. The goose they use is called Lande goose, also known as Southwest gray goose. This kind of goose is native to southwestern France, near the Lande goose on the Bay of Biscay.
"Excuse me. Mr. Chef, this foie gras of yours is not a Lande goose, right?"
As soon as Xia Xiaoyu spoke, the chef immediately extended his thumb and praised Xia Xiaoyu:
"Boss, are you an expert? We are indeed not a Lande Goose..."
Although Xia Xiaoyu was dressed in shabby clothes, he won the chef's admiration as soon as he spoke.
Before he could say anything else, Qin Zhaotian suddenly interjected:
"You little beggar, stop using your fucking excuses! Even if it's not that delicious foie gras, wouldn't it be called French foie gras if it's made from foie gras from other places?"
Xia Xiaoyu sneered, turned to look at Qin Zhaotian, and said:
"You're right, but you only know one thing and not the other! The foie gras in front of us is made from lion-head geese from Shantou, Guangdong. Although this kind of goose is large and the meat is fresh and tender, it is different from French geese.
Compared with the liver, it is smaller..."
Xia Xiaoyu talked eloquently.
Liu Qiyu on the side was already fascinated by what she heard. She couldn't help but ask:
"Then why is the body of the lion-head goose very big, but the foie gras is not as big as the foie gras of the French goose?"
Liu Qiyu actually asked about the key point.
Xia Xiaoyu glanced at Liu Qiyu and explained:
"The reason is very simple, because you want big foie gras. You have to feed the goose in a cram-feeding manner. You don't care about the meat quality. You just need the foie gras to be large and full of fat. In French Lande goose, you only take the foie gras and discard the body.
But lion-head geese are different and are fed normally. In addition to removing the foie gras, the goose meat must also be made into braised goose. The difference in breeding also causes the difference in the size of the foie gras..."
Liu Qiyu secretly marveled at Xia Xiaoyu's words.
She didn't expect that Xia Xiaoyu knew so much knowledge besides medical skills.
And Xue Chengyuan had long been impatient.
I saw him patting the table and shouting dissatisfied:
"I don't care about the size of the foie gras! It's foie gras as big as sesame seeds, cooked in French style. It's also French-style foie gras!"
Xia Xiaoyu sneered, looked at Xue Chengyuan, and said:
"You're right! But the way to make foie gras is completely different from the French way! The way to make foie gras in France is to fry and grill it. But this foie gras is fried first. And the temperature of the oil
Not high, about 60 degrees. The frying time is only a few dozen seconds. In this way, the outer layer of the foie gras can be golden in color, while the inner layer is smooth and tender, without affecting the taste at all. Then add olive oil
Stew the juice with jam and other condiments, and finally drain the juice onto the foie gras. Add truffles and the dish becomes..."
After saying that, Xia Xiaoyu turned to look at the chef and said with a smile:
"The presentation and color of this dish look like French foie gras. But in fact, these are two different dishes. Mr. Chef, what I said is right!" (To be continued)
