Chapter 248 Fish in Sour Soup
“It’s time to serve!”
With the boss’s angry shouting, a strong and overbearing aroma floated across the kitchen.
As soon as Nanzhi heard it, he was sure:
“This fish in sour soup uses pickles from Dushan, Guizhou Province.”
It looks like a question, but it's actually a determination.
The boss's son was the first to be surprised:
"How do you know? This is our family's unique secret!"
The boss has already personally brought a large basin of fish in sour soup When he came out, he was scolding his son loudly for his lack of vision and for not knowing how to help his own father.
The boss's son went to pick up the fish basin in disgrace, but was rejected by the boss and was driven away because he was in the way.
Son: Is he my biological father?
After placing a large bowl of red and sour fish in sour soup in the middle of the table, the boss clapped his hands and explained to his silly son:
“This guy was on the main station’s documentary Master!”
The boss’s son looked around blankly.
No matter what, I can't combine the words "Master" with the young man in front of me.
Neither Nanzhi nor Fu Chao met his definition of a master.
The boss slapped him on the back unceremoniously:
"What are you looking at! I told you not to just look at the surface, but to see the inside! I have taught you that you have been fooled for so many years. Are you there?”
The son dared not speak out in anger, so he could only shrink his neck and respond.
Nanzhi reluctantly took away some energy from the fish in sour soup and gave it to the boss and his son beside him.
In her opinion, the boss's conversation style was not like that of an ordinary chef in a small town restaurant.
Sure enough, the boss quickly introduced himself——
It turned out that he worked as a chef in a state-owned hotel in his early years!
Later the state-owned hotel disappeared, and the boss opened a shop in the provincial capital for more than 10 years, specializing in sour fish.
It’s a pity that while he made a lot of money, his health was not doing well.
In order to recuperate, the boss finally moved his family back to his hometown and opened a restaurant in this small town to pass the time...
Barrage:
[Previous state-owned hotels were full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers! This boss is awesome! 】
【Wow, wow, wow, I know this boss. The sour soup fish he opened before was very popular, but then he suddenly closed the store and said he wanted to go back to his hometown. I didn’t expect to run into Nanzhi! What a wonderful fate this is! 】
【I’m curious about how good the business of this boss’s store is? How is the boss's level? 】
【One of the best in your province! Business is booming every day! His sour fish soup makes my mouth water even just thinking about it! It was a pity that my parents couldn't eat their fish in sour soup yesterday, but here they are! Wait, drive to eat immediately! 】
【My friends from out of town are so envious of your province, I hope Nanzhi can discover more of these special delicacies! Blessing foodies all over the country! 】
【Huh? Wasn't it discovered by Fu Chao? 】
【Without Nanzhi, would the boss cook in person? I never heard that he had rheumatism! 】
【It seems right... Hey, I'm so greedy anyway! 】
...
The boss said with emotion:
“My silly son has been learning cooking with me for more than ten years. I thought I would let him go out and start his own business after waiting for another two years, but with Master Nan, you In comparison, it’s really far behind.”
Nanzhi was speechless, not knowing how to explain it.
She had no choice but to bring the topic back to the fish in sour soup itself.
Boss: "Oh oh oh, that's right! Master Nan, your nose is really good! You can smell it from such a distance as the Dushan kimchi I use!"
The reason why fish in sour soup has become a classic delicacy, It relies on the sour water used in Dushan kimchi.
Dushan's specialty peppers and ginger are mixed with special water to produce a unique hot and sour aroma, making it a unique pickle from an ordinary one to a unique quality and taste.
Add spring bamboo shoots and fresh fish fillets to the sour water... You can make a perfect and authentic fish in sour soup without any complicated procedures.
Of course, this boss can make sour soup fish famous in the provincial capital of Guizhou Province, where many talents gather, and he has his own tricks.
Nanzhi took the chopsticks and tasted it, and he knew that the heat and seasoning of the fish in sour soup had reached a level that could be called exquisite, and there was not even a centimeter difference!
The only pity is... Nanzhi only showed a slight expression on his face and was caught by the boss.
The boss is worthy of having opened a big hotel before, and he immediately realized:
“Did I miss something?”
Nanzhi originally wanted to be vague.
But people asked her in person, and she had to answer:
"The fish is thicker."
The boss's son and Fu Chao next to her were both confused.
Is this fish fillet still thick?
No matter how thin it is, it may fall apart!
Barrage also has the same doubts.
Only the boss agreed with Nanzhi:
"It is indeed Master Nan! You can tell the difference as soon as you eat it! My arm is old and my control over the kitchen knife is not as good as it used to be. That’s why I stepped back and let my son take over, but it turns out that this kid is not even as good as me now..."
His son defended himself weakly:
"Dad, I'm only 30 years old. I'm afraid you're not as old as me..."
The voice disappeared into my father's glare.
The barrage felt incredible:
[Nanzhi’s sense of taste is so good! 】
【I have learned now, don’t question Nanzhi about anything, lest you get slapped in the face! 】
[Yes, at least when it comes to food, Nanzhi is an absolute expert! ]
[I, a native of your province, have never heard of Dushan kimchi, but Nanzhi actually knows about it? Absolutely amazing! 】
【And the boss keeps approving her, anyway, I am happy! 】
【I felt relieved after holding my breath all day! 】
……
Seeing that both Nanzhi and Fu Chao were amazed by the fish in sour soup, Qingxi also took the initiative to start feasting.
Nanyi and Qi Zhang, who were originally a little in awe of the spicy and sour taste, finally picked up their chopsticks and mustered up the courage to try it.
The fish fillets were a little fragile, so Nanzhi helped them put a piece of each fish into the bowl.
Qi Zhang tried to take a bite and found it a bit spicy, but within the acceptable range.
Nan Xiang could eat even Qi Zhang, so not to be outdone, she picked up a small piece and stuffed it into her mouth.
Then, his snow-white face turned red visibly!
Nanzhi reacted quickly and quickly handed over the water.
Nanyi opened her mouth and started coughing.
Now Nanzhi didn’t even dare to feed him water, so he quickly patted him on the back.
Nanyi: "I, I'm fine...cough cough cough!"
Everyone else was also panicked.
Fu Chao hurriedly helped to get the paper. Qingxi and Qi Zhang both looked at their friends with concern. The boss felt guilty even more. The boss's son found the milk that was the best way to relieve spicy food.
After all the busy work, Nan Yi finally felt relieved.
However, Nanzhi did not dare to let Nanyi eat it now.
Nanyi’s little face is stubborn:
"I can! I just got choked accidentally!"
Nanzhi reached out and flicked his forehead:
"Don't be stubborn in a place like this."
Nanyi bulged her mouth and did not dare to speak.
Boss: "I deliberately used less spicy food. Unexpectedly... I'll make him some non-spicy dishes."
Nanzhi thought of Lu Shixu and lamented the magic of blood. He and Nanyi had never had much contact with each other, but they were quite similar in terms of taste.
Nanzhi nodded:
"Then please."
