I’m really sorry, I’ve tired you folks to wait for a long time today, please wait for a few more moments, and then you can taste our Zhu Ji’s upcoming halibut.”Zhu Pingan came to the restaurant from the backyard and smiled, arching his hand to apologise to the crowd in the room.
“Young shopkeeper is polite.”
“It’s been waiting all morning, not bad for a while.”
“Little Shopkeeper atmospheric ah, the shop has not even opened yet and invited us to eat, when the time comes when Zhu Ji opens, we will definitely come over to support the show.”
Under the pressure of a large pot of meaty and fragrant pig’s jowl, people returned Zhu Pingan’s good-natured laughter.
Of course there were also people who made snide remarks, such as:
“It smells good, I just don’t know how it tastes when I eat it, but don’t be a hit or miss ……”
“Small shopkeeper, we wait for a long time is nothing, I’m afraid that this pig offal smells good, eat the stink ah, that can be huh ……”
“Yes, stinky tofu smells bad and tastes good, but I don’t know how to eat the pig’s offal that smells good.”
Someone cited the example of stinky tofu to map this pig’s offal smells good, but I don’t know how to eat it.
Everyone in the audience knows stinky tofu, which is a very representative snack of the Ming Dynasty, a classic reverse cuisine that smells bad but tastes good. Legend has it that stinky tofu was invented by Zhu Yuanzhang, the early years of his poor background, in order to survive as a beggar has been a monk, one day when the hungry really can not hold out, picked up a family thrown to the back of the house of the expiry date of the tofu, with the oil fried in the oil lamp in the temple, can not wait to stuffed into the mouth, I did not expect to taste exceptionally wonderful, once eaten on the unforgettable, more than chicken with flowers to the heart. Later Taizu became a marshal, leading the army to Anhui, and recalled the deep-fried expired tofu, so the whole army to collect expired tofu, deep-fried to reward the whole army. From then on, stinky tofu began to circulate in Anhui and soon spread throughout the country.
After hearing someone cite the example of stinky tofu, some people who were attracted by the aroma could not help but thump in their hearts, what this person said was not unreasonable. Since there exists stinky tofu that smells and tastes good, it is possible that there are food that smells and tastes bad, for example, this pig’s jowl is possible to smell and eat bad, which is not impossible.
Of course, more people are still looking forward to it. In the past, people used to make pork jellied meat that smelled foul and stinky, but Zhu Ji’s pork jellied meat only has a tempting aroma, no bad odour at all, and it is clean, bright and free, which makes people excited.
It doesn’t matter if you have different opinions.
Anyway, the pig’s jowl was already cooked and could be tasted right away, whether it was a mule or a horse would be known in a few moments.
“Out of the pot.”
Liu Dajian shouted at the top of his voice, kicking off the food feast.
Then, Liu Dajian fished the clean, bright, and enticing pig jowl out of the pot with long chopsticks and placed it on the counter.
The pig’s offal, with its fragrant brine soup, trembled on the board, whetting the appetite of the crowd and whetting people’s appetites.
Liu Lao was in charge of cutting the pig’s offal, and once he moved his knife, he showed the standard of a veteran cook, although he had only learnt about the cutting method from Zhu Pingan, he was quick, steady and skilful with his knife.
Fat intestines cut off fancy, lung head chopped rotten tendon brain, pig liver push knife slicing, pig heart opposite slice into thin slices ……
After a burst of dazzling, a pair of pig offal have been transformed into a variety of marinated meat displayed in different categories on the board.
Then Liu Lao began to bowl, all kinds of marinated meat each clip some, orderly into the bowl, and then poured a spoonful of rich marinated soup. This pouring soup is also very delicate, Liu Lao this spoonful of soup is not too much and not too little, both so that the marinated meat is more flavourful, but not to drown the scenery in the bowl, but also allows people to have soup on the bun.
With chopped garlic, cilantro and chilli oil, in the blink of an eye, a bowl of fat-scented overflowing lo mein is ready.
“Mine, mine ……”
“Mine first ……”
For a bowl of halibut, people competed for it, almost grabbing their heads.
“Come, come, don’t crowd, one by one ……”Liu Dahammer and Liu Dagger were maintaining order on the side, with the momentum of one man against ten thousand men.
“Hehehe, sorry, it’s mine.”
The first person to receive the halibut, holding the bowl, smilingly showed it off to the crowd.
“How does it taste?”
People were curious and kept urging.
“Heh, heh, don’t rush, don’t rush, let me taste it.”
The first person who received the halibut deliberately raised his chopsticks slowly, and fell into the bowl unhurriedly under the urgent and angry urging of the crowd, picked up a piece of crispy fat intestines, closed his eyes, and slowly put it into his mouth.
“This is ……”
After the entrance of the fat sausage, this person only chewed a little, then violently opened his eyes wide, as if he was bitten by a dog while sleeping.
With a single chew, the thick meat flavour exploded violently in his mouth, Avray stimulating his taste buds.
Fragrant but not greasy, engraved in his bones.
The soft and fluffy fat intestines wrapped in the rich brine soup, the light coriander, and a slight spiciness that he had never tasted before, like a catalyst, made these perfectly blend together and sublimate into an earthly delicacy, and with a single mouthful, it was almost as if he had to swallow his tongue into his stomach.
Sub-Oh, how can pig offal be so delicious?
What kind of foreleg meat, hind leg meat, and pancetta, in front of this delicious pig jowl, it was simply a flavourless steamed bun.
Shocked!
It turned out that pig’s offal was so delicious, never had I eaten such flavourful meat before!
For a moment, the man was stunned, and after only chewing a mouthful, he froze, maintaining his chewing position, his eyes wide open.
“What’s going on here?”
“Is it too unpalatable?”
“Is it that bad to eat?”
“No, it’s hard to eat like this? After chewing it once, you can’t chew it a second time?!”
The surrounding people were startled, and thought that the pig’s jowl was too unpalatable, making this person take a bite and never want to take a second bite.
“Hehe, sure enough, pig’s jowl is still pig’s jowl, put more spices in the soup, it can cover the nose, but when you really eat it, the foul odour comes out.”
“Oh, expected, expected.”
When Boss Qian and the others saw this at the back, they looked at each other and laughed.
The female disguised as a man, Princess Ning An and Xi’er and Huan’er also mixed in the crowd, seeing this scene, Princess Ning An excitedly clenched her pink fist and waved it, the heart that had been lifted for half a day finally fell into her stomach, “Lol, I didn’t expect this pig’s jowls to be really hard to eat yea, when I just smelled the aroma, it scared the hell out of me ……”
However, the next second, Boss Qian, Princess Ning An and the others froze.
Only to see the person who froze for half a day, with more than ten days have not eaten like shouted “too delicious”, then buried in the marinade, ignoring the crowd.
I don’t have time to pay attention to you, now I only have fat intestines and sliced lungs in my eyes, heart and mouth …….
The chopsticks are flying, the cheeks are bulging; the more I chew, the more flavourful it is.
Eat.
Keep eating.
I can’t stop eating.
Soon, the second person who received the pork boil also tasted the pig’s offal, and after taking a bite, he completely understood why the first person just stayed still, so the pig’s offal could be so delicious.
Third
The fourth
More and more people received bowls of fragrant lo mein.
“Yummy, yummy.”
“Mmmmm, so delicious.”
“Little Shopkeeper, hurry up and open.”
“Yes, hurry up and open, we’ll come every day in the future.”
Those who ate it all said it was good, the barfing sound was endless, and they couldn’t stop at all.
“Is it that delicious? It’s all trusts invited by surname Zhu, right!!!”Princess Ning An indignantly belaboured.
However, when Xi’er and Huan’er received the free halibut and served it in front of Princess Ning’an, after Princess Ning’an tasted a mouthful with her fussy little mouth, she stopped talking, her face pulled back, and she exasperatedly said one word, “Go!”
Then they twisted their little bums and walked away without looking back, out of sight, out of mind.
“Huh?”
Eater Xi’er’s small mouth was stuffed to the brim, after hearing Princess Ning’an say go, she gave an ah and didn’t move away at all.
“Dying.”
Huan’er pinched Xi’er and pulled her to chase after the princess, when Xi’er was pulled away by Huan’er, she still wanted to serve the halibut, and only after being glared at by Huan’er did she reluctantly put it down, taking one step and turning back as she walked away.
Boss Qian and the others also mixed a bowl of boiled pork, after tasting a bite, a few people will be ducks and pears.
So scary, it turns out that pig’s jowl can really be this tasty!
