Chapter 175 Bamboo Shoots
Bai Mengmeng had learned before that there was nothing special about the spiritual chef and spiritual plant talents in the Qi Refining Stage.
That is, the things grown are better and the food tastes better.
But it will hardly have any special effect.
But there seems to be something different about her...
I looked at the people who were lifting dumbbells frantically, and then looked at the people who were running crazily.
"Strange, how come the soup I made has such an exaggerated effect?"
A 60-year-old man turned into a muscular man in the middle of the night, and the young guy even wanted to run naked!
Bai Mengmeng couldn't help but start fantasizing.
"Could it be that my talent is about to be upgraded?"
It shouldn't be possible. It's been less than a year since I awakened my talent.
She didn't feel any sense of disagreement either.
Bai Mengmeng thought about it for a long time, and finally could only conclude that she was very talented.
What's more, although there are some special effects, they are just food, so they are not that surprising.
Bai Mengmeng didn't think this was a big deal. At this moment, all she could think about was getting a salary increase.
If there are special effects, of course you have to pay extra!
Just as he was thinking happily, Xu Bo started bleeding from his nose again.
He couldn't bear it anymore and tears started to flow down his face.
"Master, I feel like I'm about to explode, please save me!"
Bai Mengmeng: "Why don't you go for a run too..."
Fortunately, although the effect was very strong, it disappeared quickly. In the second half of the night, Xu Bo finally fell asleep.
Bai Mengmeng also restrained her messy thoughts.
…
The next morning, Bai Mengmeng used all her strength to get out of bed.
Master Pi not only brought a set meal today, but also brought a box of water fish.
Bai Mengmeng quickly ran over and said, "It seems there's no fish on Wednesday. Master Pi, did you send the wrong one?"
Although the island is surrounded by water, except for eating boiled fish once a week, Chef Pi will still deliver other sets of meals as usual.
Moreover, the fish delivered today is not suitable for making boiled fish fillets. It is a kind of fish with a snow-white belly and a flattened tail.
I don't know why this fish seems a little wilted.
Master Pi said nothing, hurriedly unloaded the fish, and then asked: "I raised this longnose catfish myself. Do you know how to cook it?"
Bai Mengmeng's eyes suddenly lit up: "Of course, this is called catfish, and in some places it's called river grouper. It's a very delicious freshwater fish."
Su Dongpo once wrote a poem about this rain: "The pink stone head is still boneless, and the snow-white puffer fish is not a medicine for people."
The Shishou fish mentioned here is a kind of fish. The poem means that this fish has no bones and is not as poisonous as puffer fish. It can be said that it has the best of both worlds.
Now that Bai Mengmeng saw so many delicious fish, she was thinking about how to cook them into dishes, and Kuangshen couldn't help but start drooling.
"Chef Pi, did you cook this fish and bring it here specially for us as a snack?"
Master Pi shook his head, looking somewhat helpless: "Not really, I originally wanted to sell it for money."
Bai Mengmeng: "Hmm?"
"The captain of Team 12 returned today. When I picked them up this morning, they happened to pass by my fish farm. Captain Yin must be crazy. He insisted on practicing swordplay on the boat, and ended up killing all my fish with one strike."
“Like this…”
"If we take it to the market to sell, I'm afraid it will die halfway through, so we have to hurry here to process it while we still have time, otherwise it will be wasted."
All right.
No wonder the fish looked a little bit dead.
Bai Mengmeng shook her head helplessly.
"Then let's eat this fish for lunch today. I'll kill it right away."
…
There are many ways to prepare catfish. It can be boiled, braised, or even steamed.
Lingzhou’s famous white sauce catfish is made by cutting the fish into sections and stewing it with spring bamboo shoots.
"This is the royal table Jane."
I heard that the emperor would particularly like this dish.
"But we don't have any bamboo shoots here. What should we eat with it? How about just braise it?"
Bai Mengmeng gutted the fish quickly and efficiently, and before she finished, she heard the elevator ring and saw Master Pi carrying a sack and walking into the cafeteria.
"What is this?" Bai Mengmeng karaoke curiously.
"Take a look?" Pi Dadu threw the sack on the ground.
After taking a look, Bai Mengmeng's face suddenly showed joy.
The sacks were full of bamboo shoots that had not yet been freed from the dirt and some of them were still growing.
Maybe this is telepathy. As soon as I dozed off, a pillow came. Just when I was worrying about what to cook with catfish, bamboo shoots were brought to me.
Bai Mengmeng laughed out loud: "Master Pi, you are just like the roundworm in my stomach. I was just about to ask for bamboo shoots, but you brought them to me directly."
"But where did you get all these bamboo shoots?"
Pi Dadu chuckled, "I dug them from the bamboo forest behind the family building. Yin Wufeng actually dared to kill my fish, so I went to the bamboo forest and hollowed out his bamboo. Master Bai, I'll leave these bamboo shoots to you."
Bai Mengmeng pretended to be embarrassed: "This... this is not okay, right?"
In fact, it's pretty damn good!
Catfish is perfect to go with bamboo shoots. Now that you have all the ingredients, what are you waiting for if you don’t want to make catfish in white sauce?
Bai Mengmeng quickly dealt with the remaining fish. Hua Guduo and Xu Bo also hurried over to help peel the bamboo shoots.
This bamboo shoot was dug out from the bamboo forest behind the family building. It is small and a bit slender, making it difficult to peel.
Bai Mengmeng had previously wanted to go there to cut bamboo and use it to build a rack to grow vegetables so that they could grow better.
As a result, Director Fang warned her at that time that the bamboo forest was specially planted and seemed to have some special requirements and could not be moved around at will, so she did not dare to dig out the bamboo, but just quietly dug up a few bamboo shoots.
But she didn't know what kind of bamboo shoots they were, but after frying them they tasted quite different, tender, crispy and delicious. The taste was so unforgettable that she still couldn't forget it.
Bai Mengmeng actually wanted to go over and dig some bamboo shoots, but when she thought of Director Fang's words, she felt a little embarrassed to go over.
Unexpectedly, today, Master Pi actually dug a large sack of bamboo shoots for him. Bai Mengmeng looked a little frightened and uneasy, but in fact, she was already smiling in her heart.
"So many bamboo shoots! This is awesome!"
When she thought about having so many delicious bamboo shoots and pairing them with catfish to make a delicious white sauce catfish, she couldn't help but show excitement on her face.
