Chapter 108 Treat Liu Zian to hot pot
In fact, hot pot is not common at this time, and not many people eat chili.
Su Xiaoxiao remembered that Liu Zian traveled all over the world and stayed in Sichuan and Sichuan for a while. When he thought about it, he was ready to prepare a spicy hot pot for him.
"What, you invited us over for hot pot? What is hot pot?"
Liu Zian obviously didn't know the meaning of hot pot. Seeing that he didn't understand, Su Xiaoxiao explained to him: "Hot pot is just a hot pot. While it is cooked over fire, you can put some meat and vegetables in it and eat it in the pot. Wait for me. You’ll know when you make it.”
Su Xiaoxiao used the meat oil left over from the previous stew, which solidified into meat oil. She used it as the bottom of the pot and added a lot of chili peppers to stir-fry until fragrant.
In this way, the bottom of the pot became bright red. While the fragrant hot pot was frying in the room, a person walked in from the door.
As soon as this person came in from the outside, he said with an exaggerated expression: "Hey, this is too delicious, isn't it? What delicious food is Boss Su making?"
Without looking, Su Xiaoxiao could tell just by listening to the voice that it was none other than Qian Musheng.
"Mr. Qian, why are you here?"
Su Xiaoxiao asked very puzzled.
"Didn't you say you would send fifty bottles of jam to our Eight Immortals Tower? You haven't sent it yet? I'll come over and ask you today!"
Su Xiaoxiao then remembered that the workers had a holiday today and went home to harvest crops.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Qian, our workshop is on holiday today. When there are people available in a few days, I will send workers to deliver it to you."
Su Xiaoxiao said in her heart, you are not so anxious, right?
Qian Musheng was not anxious at all when he heard this, "I know, this is not because I want to come to visit Boss Su and see if I can eat the delicious food you cooked, Boss Su. As expected, I am really quite a good person." "
"What delicious food are you making?"
Su Xiaoxiao made the bottom of the pot red, very eye-catching, and fragrant.
"This is hot pot."
Although he was learning and selling now, Liu Zian still explained to Qian Musheng very politely.
Qian Musheng saw Liu Zian dressed as a scholar. He was also young and handsome, with a slightly weak and indifferent kind of handsomeness.
"Boss Su, who is this person?"
Su Xiaoxiao took a look and quickly introduced: "This person is the teacher of my Dabao and Xiaobao. His name is Liu Zian."
"This is Mr. Qian..."
Liu Zian seemed very polite, and he quickly came over to say hello to Qian Musheng.
"Hello."
Qian Musheng also responded calmly.
"Hello, sir, he seems to have read a lot of poetry and books. He must know a lot about it, right? Is this hot pot delicious?"
"this……"
This stumped Liu Zian, who is now learning and selling it, "Well, you have to taste it yourself to know the taste. After all, one person has a thousand opinions on this taste, right?"
Fortunately, it was Liu Zian who didn't panic even when he was asked a question, and skillfully put the question back to Qian Musheng.
"What you said is absolutely true." Qian Musheng actually meant to make things difficult for Liu Zian. He always felt that Liu Zian was around Su Xiaoxiao and was her neighbor. This kind of relationship was indeed a bit uneasy.
Su Xiaoxiao asked Wang Er to customize the hot pot pot this time. It is somewhat similar to a modern mutton-shabu pot. It can burn as long as you put charcoal fire underneath.
Su Xiaoxiao brought the hot pot to the table and threw in the prepared vegetables and meat.
"Everyone, come and gather around this hot pot and get ready to eat."
Soon the hot pot was started, and the dipping sauce Su Xiaoxiao prepared for everyone included sesame sauce and vinegar. Mainly because I’m worried that people can’t eat anything too spicy, so these can relieve the spiciness.
After everything was ready, Su Xiaoxiao saw the soup in the pot boiling, and she saw that no one moved their chopsticks.
So, Su Xiaoxiao took the lead and picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks, blew on the hot air and put it into his mouth, "It is indeed very delicious."
How to describe this spiciness? Su Xiaoxiao's taste buds were all opened in an instant.
She felt as if all her senses were open. After all, Su Xiaoxiao had never eaten hot pot that was so spicy and refreshing.
Moreover, after traveling through time, Su Xiaoxiao had even less exposure to chili peppers. If she hadn't gotten the chili seedlings from Bruce, how could Su Xiaoxiao have such delicious and refreshing hot pot?
Others were still in a wait-and-see attitude. When Saburo saw it, he decided to use his chopsticks no matter what. He must not fall behind.
He must give Su Xiaoxiao enough face.
"What does this smell like?"
After Saburo took it into his mouth, he immediately felt that the spicy taste was a bit unbearable. He started blindly following Su Xiaoxiao, but now he couldn't hold on any longer and almost spit out the meat in his mouth.
"You just started eating it. It might be a bit spicy. You can dip it in some sesame sauce and try it again."
Sanlang was also puzzled that he could not eat chili peppers as well as Su Xiaoxiao.
So, he tried it again based on what Su Xiaoxiao said, and finally found it easy to eat.
Qian Musheng stood up when he saw it. The spicy food must have caused diarrhea. Of course, it was not the same as eating chili peppers directly.
But at that time, only Liu Zian was enjoying the hot pot normally, while the others didn't seem to really taste the food at all. Instead, they seemed to be competing with each other to see who could eat the spicier food.
Needless to say, these two people are Sanlang and Qian Musheng. Both of them have cold fair skin. As a result, their faces were covered with sweat after eating the chili. Sanlang is the kind of person who sweats from the top of his eyelids. Sweat.
Qian Musheng kept stirring his mouth with his hands to reduce the temperature and spiciness in his mouth, but the two never stopped competing.
Su Xiaoxiao and Liu Zian were stunned. It was extremely spicy to eat like this. Su Xiaoxiao quickly made them a glass of jam water respectively, "Drink, let's see if this makes it better?"
Su Xiaoxiao brought another pot of clear soup hot pot from the side and said to them: "If you can't eat it so spicy, don't be brave. This is clear soup. You can use this to make hot pot."
There is no chili in the bottom of the clear soup pot, so it tastes very light and delicious, and not greasy.
In the end, Sanlang and Qian Musheng had to put down their dignity and stop competing.
In fact, you can’t force such a thing. After all, everyone has different sensitivity to spiciness. If you try too hard to try hot or spicy food to win eyeballs and attention, you will only end up with the cause of gastritis. Why bother? What about embarrassing yourself? There are occasions for showing off your strength, right?
"Shassha..."
"Take it out early?"
Qian Musheng complained, but now he stopped pretending. Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing when she saw the two of them blushing.
"Look how spicy it is for you, but there's no harm in eating more chili peppers."
