Chapter 238: Eat!

"To make dismantled carp head, you must use big gray carp. Compared with white carp, the meat of big gray carp is more tender. Everyone can take advantage of the fact that this dish hasn't been moved yet and observe it carefully. Did you find it? Although the dismantled carp head can still see the shape of the fish head when it is served, there is actually no bone in it."

"The core of this dish is to remove every bone in the fish head after the fish head is cooked, and still maintain the shape of the fish head, not broken, not rotten, not ugly, not a broken mess."

"I have seen some food critics comment that dismantled carp head is a knife-work dish that shows off skills. I disagree. Admittedly, the requirements for knife work for this dish are very high, but if you can become the main dish of the Three-Head Banquet just by relying on knife work, Wensi tofu should also be in this banquet."

"Usually, the fish cheek meat is the most tender. But in dismantled carp head, everyone will find that every piece of meat is as tender as the fish cheek!"

"The milky white soup used to braise the fish head is the high soup that my dad specifically hung a day in advance. Adding winter bamboo shoots, shiitake mushrooms, and ham to the chicken soup, what you eat is freshness, and what you taste is tenderness. The first feeling of entering the mouth must be slippery."

"Removing the fish bone is not purely for showing off, but because after removing the fish bone, it is better to taste when braising with high soup. The final dismantled carp head will be more tender, and you don't have to worry about thorns when eating."

"Every step of this dish is not useless, but for the guests to better taste it."

After speaking, Huang Anyao really couldn't hold back, picked up a chopstick of good meat, and had to show it to everyone when picking it up.

"Did you see it? Although this fish head looks soft and collapsed, it won't be crushed, and it won't break in the air. This is the best embodiment of the chef's fire power when making this dish."

"Gulp." Ouyang swallowed a mouthful of saliva unpromisingly.

"Gulp." Wang Gensheng followed with a mouthful of saliva.

"Such good food, why didn't Master Jing make it when he was in the state-run restaurant?" Wang Gensheng looked at the fish meat on Huang Anyao's chopsticks and his eyes went straight.

"It was made for leaders to eat, of course you, an accountant, don't know." Chen Juan also looked at the fish meat on Huang Anyao's chopsticks with eager eyes, but didn't stretch out her chopsticks.

Everyone thought that Huang Anyao picked up a chopstick to show them how good the fire power of the fish meat was, and didn't realize at all that it was Huang Anyao who couldn't hold back and wanted to eat another mouthful.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Qin Huai wanted to call everyone to eat more when eating at a banquet in the future.

Too quality, such fragrant food in front of them, they could actually hold back and not move their chopsticks.

Of course, Qin Huai didn't move either.

He wasn't that greedy. He had eaten dismantled carp head when he was cooking the small stove. Since everyone didn't move their chopsticks, he wouldn't be the first to eat the crab.

Huang Anyao satisfiedly wrapped it in one mouthful, and just wanted to make the "Mmm" sound of the highest praise for food, but realized that he was now a gold medal commentator, and forcibly held back this tone particle.

Huang Anyao picked up another chopstick: "Everyone eat, this dish must be eaten hot, preferably with the soup below."

"Now there is no rice. When I was a child, I liked to use the remaining soup to soak rice when eating dismantled carp head."

Huang Anyao said so, and everyone dared to move their chopsticks. One chopstick after another, a whole dismantled carp head was wiped out in a short time. Because Huang Anyao was the first to eat the fish head, he was two chopsticks ahead of everyone else and ate a full four mouthfuls.

Everyone didn't waste the final soup either. Ouyang asked the waiter outside for a few bowls of rice, and mixed it with Xu Tuqiang, Chen Huihui, and Director Liu's daughter to eat with rice.

That was, the fermented glutinous rice buns hadn't been served yet, otherwise Ouyang would have to take the buns to dip the little soup left in the plate, and return a porcelain plate as clean as new to the kitchen.

After eating the dismantled carp head, Director Liu's daughter couldn't hold back a bit, and stretched out her chopsticks to pick up other dishes to eat, but was stopped by Director Liu on the spot.

"Listen to Brother Xiao Huang, we will eat whatever he says, eat in order."

Huang Anyao:... That's not necessary.

"In fact, most of the dishes are already served on the table. You can eat whatever you want. Everyone eat as you please, there is no order to eat dishes in the Three-Head Banquet."

Everyone nodded in cooperation, and then one eye stared at the crab roe lion head, and one eye looked at Huang Anyao.

Huang Anyao could only continue to introduce.

"I believe everyone is no stranger to crab roe lion head, and should have eaten it or eaten something similar."

"There are two points in the crab roe lion head of the Three-Head Banquet that are different from the regular models sold in outside restaurants. One is that there is no starch in the lion head. It is made of crushed water chestnuts to increase the taste. Pure meat filling can sometimes be too tight. After adding water chestnuts, the taste will be relatively loose, and at the same time, you can eat the crisp feeling."

"The second is that the meat for making crab roe lion head needs to be finely cut and coarsely chopped. When cutting the meat into meat shreds and meat grains, you must cut them finely with many knives, and when chopping the meat shreds and meat grains into meat paste, you must chop them coarsely with a few big knives."

"The meat balls made in this way will be more chewy than meat balls made purely with a meat grinder. Every head of the Three-Head Banquet eats a different taste. Dismantled carp head eats soft and rotten, crab roe lion head must not be soft and rotten, nor can it be loose. The meat must be tight, and the high soup must be stewed and tasty."

"This kind of crab roe lion head that will disperse when gently scooped with a spoon is not the crab roe lion head of the Three-Head Banquet."

"And the raw materials of the lion head of the Three-Head Banquet will change according to the season. Spring is paired with river fresh, autumn is crab roe lion head, and winter is theoretically often sprout chicken lion head. But the signature of each restaurant is different, and our Huang Ji is the best at making crab roe lion head, so we make crab roe lion head all year round."

"Everyone can contact me if you want to hold wedding banquets, birthday banquets, full-month, and hundred-day banquets in the autumn in the future. Our Huang Ji will only prepare the Three-Head Banquet for old customers' banquets. The crab roe lion head at that time is the best."

After speaking, Huang Anyao took a spoon and scooped a large piece, taking the opportunity to eat more.

Tired of explaining, eating two more mouthfuls of crab roe lion head is not a problem, right?

The crab roe lion head was wiped out by everyone.

"Eat other hot dishes too, eat them all, the food must be eaten hot, it won't taste good if it's cold," Huang Anyao greeted everyone to eat more dishes.

If everyone continued to eat in this half-hungry state, all the dishes eaten were fresh and tender and didn't fill the stomach, the more they ate, the hungrier they were. By the time the braised whole pig head was served, Huang Anyao would be embarrassed to eat more.

Although the young master was not good at socializing, he knew a little bit about Sun Tzu's Art of War.

Qin Huai saw Huang Anyao's little thoughts at a glance and waved his hand: "Waiter, give me a bowl of rice."

The soup of the dismantled carp head was indeed delicious, and the crab roe lion head was also very good with rice, but people's stomach capacity was limited. If the precious opportunity to eat staple food was wasted on these two dishes, it would be a bit sorry for the braised whole pig head that was about to be served.

If the three heads of the Three-Head Banquet were to be ranked, the braised whole pig head was definitely the well-deserved first head.

You could see it from the price. When Huang Ji still sold the Three-Head Banquet separately, the price of the braised whole pig head was one zero more than the remaining two heads.

Under normal circumstances, the braised whole pig head should be the first dish served when eating the Three-Head Banquet.

This was the first head.

But today it was actually an internal dinner party, so the order of serving was not so particular. Whatever was served, whatever was delicious, whatever was served. The braised whole pig head was served late. It must be that today's pig head was particularly large, so it took a little trouble to handle it and the time was not well controlled.

As for why Qin Huai knew that today's pig head was particularly large...

He saw it when he went to work.

Such a big pig head, Huang Shengli started handling it from last night. After making dim sum at noon, Qin Huai almost couldn't hold back and went over to steal a bite.

Qin Huai was so reserved when eating dishes just now, also for the braised whole pig head that hadn't been served yet.

Seeing that Qin Huai actually took the initiative to call the waiter to serve a bowl of rice, Huang Anyao was shocked, secretly sighing that he was really out of strategy and underestimated the enemy, blinded by the expectant and trusting eyes of everyone at the table, forgetting that there was a knowledgeable expert sitting on the side.

Sun Tzu's Art of War was used wrong!

The biggest competitor was actually sitting next to him!

"I want a bowl of rice too!" Huang Anyao said hurriedly.

"I want another bowl too." Ouyang finished the last mouthful of rice in the bowl. "Give me a big bowl, this bowl is too small!"

"The food today is really delicious, I feel like I can eat at least eight bowls of rice!"

Huang Anyao:?!

Eating rice needs to be driven. Seeing Huang Anyao, Qin Huai, and Ouyang asking for rice one after another, everyone in the private room also felt that they should eat some rice. Even Chen Huihong, who didn't intend to eat rice and wanted to save her stomach for dim sum, asked for a portion of rice and shared it with Huihui.

Looking at bowls of rice served on the table, Huang Anyao knew that something was wrong.

Braised whole pig head was like this. It was already at least 95 points delicious itself. A top-notch big meat dish, thick oil and red sauce, very soft, rotten, and q-elastic meat quality after several hours of stewing and steaming, and the soup drizzled on it was mellow in taste.

It belonged to the kind that looked like it would definitely be greasy after two mouthfuls, but actually couldn't stop once eaten. People who didn't like eating meat on weekdays and said that eating meat was unhealthy and eating more vegetables was good for the body, would also throw away all the concepts in their minds after eating two mouthfuls, and their stomachs and tongues would shout wildly: want to eat meat, want to eat meat!

High calories and fat could stimulate the body's most primitive love for food.

Eating it alone was already like this.

If you paired it with a bowl of white rice that was full of grains, chewy, steamed just right, warm and easy to enter the mouth, and full of carbohydrate happiness when eating braised whole pig head.

The deliciousness of this dish would rise directly to 105 points.

Carbohydrates + fat + protein, the three-piece set of fat happiness.

One mouthful of braised whole pig head, one mouthful of white rice, and then gently drizzle the mellow sauce on the rice and mix it, even if you don't eat meat, one mouthful of rice goes down...

People who understand rice know how deep the doorway is.

Huang Anyao didn't dare to think anymore. If he thought anymore, he would drool.

Others at the table were still strange, wondering why the young master didn't introduce it. Were the remaining dishes not worth introducing? They also looked delicious, but they felt something was missing when eating. They always felt that it would be more delicious if the young master could say two more sentences.

Just when everyone was eating dishes and doubting, the food was served.

Braised whole pig head!

Super large pig head, very deep sauce color, beautiful pig face, good-looking plating, fragrant smell.

As soon as the dish was served on the table, the other dishes on the side were immediately eclipsed.

Braised whole pig head seemed to be telling everyone present clearly that who was the real protagonist of this meal today.

"Gulp." Ouyang swallowed a mouthful of saliva unpromisingly again.

Really can't blame him, it was too fragrant. And when eating dishes just now, although Huang Anyao introduced many dishes, everyone only ate two mouthfuls and didn't eat much. With Ouyang's appetite, the dishes and rice eaten just now were at most appetizers.

Ouyang actually planned to eat less dishes and eat more dim sum.

Now...

Ouyang could only say sorry to the dim sum in his heart.

"Waiter, serve another bowl of rice, a big bowl!"

Braised whole pig head, Huang Anyao didn't make too much introduction.

This dish doesn't need introduction, just eat it.

Pig head meat with rice is the best introduction!

For a time, everyone in the private room was burying their heads and eating.

Chen Huihui surpassed herself. The little girl who could only eat half a bowl per meal originally played at a super level today, and forcibly stuffed a whole bowl, eating out the style of Qin Luo when she was a child.

Qin Luo could have today's appetite, which had a lot to do with her hard work in eating for so many years.

After a bowl of rice went down, Chen Huihui basically ended today's meal, leaned on the back of the chair and whispered to Chen Huihong: "Mom, I'm a bit sleepy."

"Go home after eating, write the remaining question and go to sleep," Chen Huihong said while showing off rice. "Huihui is full, right? Mom will help you eat this piece of meat!"

There is maternal love, but not much.

A large portion of braised whole pig head was wiped out.

Truly wiped out, the plate was as clean as new, and was dipped three times by Ouyang with buns.

Actually, it wasn't just Ouyang who wanted to dip the soup with buns, but only Ouyang did it in the end.

It wasn't that everyone was humble, mainly because they couldn't eat anymore.

After a few bowls of rice went down, Ouyang, who had eaten 5 bowls of rice, could only leave some stomach to eat two more fermented glutinous rice buns.

In the matter of eating, all Sun Tzu's Art of War is not as useful as a large appetite.

Everyone was paralyzed on the chair, satisfied with wine and food, recalling the deliciousness just now.

Dr. Zhou controlled the urge to hiccup while whispering: "Hold a wedding banquet in autumn, there are still eight or nine months, how can I convince Minmin to postpone the wedding banquet in May for a few months?"

"Director Liu, is the crab roe in September better or the crab roe in October better?"

Director Liu:...

Director Liu started to check online. This is very important, because she will definitely eat the wedding wine when Dr. Zhou holds the wedding banquet at that time.

Xu Tuqiang was taking crazy photos of the empty plates on the table, and also set his sights on Guo'er, trying to let Uncle Qian spare him half, and he would send it back for his daughter to taste.

Uncle Qian let Xu Tuqiang roll.

Grandma Ding started to ponder what she should send to Qin Huai to upgrade her small stove from fermented glutinous rice buns that were enough to eat to Guo'er that were enough to eat.

Ouyang was still eating Guo'er.

Qu Jing was whispering to Chen Juan that Uncle Wang's situation was really not Alzheimer's disease, maybe it was just that he didn't pay attention, which had nothing to do with age.

Chen Juan decided to carry out justice on her old partner when she went back.

Uncle Wang ate very satisfied, even a bit moved, not knowing what he remembered, his eyes were a bit red. Feeling that the atmosphere had been baked to this point, he opened his mouth:

Chen Juan decided that as soon as she got back, she would carry out justice on her old man.

Chen Juan just wanted to let him shut up, but when the words reached her mouth, she suddenly reacted. Alas, this "thinking back" hadn't been heard before.

"Master Jing also did birthday banquets?" Chen Juan was shocked.

"Did, did few." Uncle Wang said.

"How come I don't know you ate it?"

"I wasn't dating you then, thinking back..."
