Chapter 61 Large Intestine
Bai Mengmeng didn't hear what the group of old men were talking about.
Otherwise, I would definitely tell them slowly and seriously that they have misunderstood!
What salted egg yolk? Bai Mengmeng didn’t prepare any at all today.
She is not a famous chef, so she has to be pretentious when naming a dish. As a small cook in a farm house, the Osmanthus Intestine is made of osmanthus and pig intestine, which are absolutely authentic ingredients.
At this moment, Bai Mengmeng chopped the braised large intestine into pieces and put it in the pan to fry.
These slices of pig intestines can only be crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside after being fried, so after the pig intestines were fried, Bai Mengmeng urged Wang Hao to serve the dishes quickly.
These people arrived a little early, and the sweet osmanthus lotus root was still warm and not yet at its best taste.
…
Wang Hao brought the dishes to the table. When everyone saw the osmanthus pig intestines, their eyes widened and their faces were full of curiosity.
Zeng Haiguo was in disbelief, completely unable to recognize it. "Why don't I see any salted egg yolks? This... this dish isn't right, right?"
There was a plate of fried pork intestines on the table, with a dish of sauce. There seemed to be a few osmanthus flowers in the sauce.
Zeng Guohai used to think that this sweet-scented osmanthus pig intestines was just pig intestines stuffed with salted egg yolks.
After all, the pig intestines are fat and juicy, and the salty and fragrant egg yolks make the two flavors blend perfectly. He has eaten them many times in private restaurants before and thinks they are indeed delicious this way.
However, the dish that was served was obviously not what he imagined. It actually used osmanthus sauce to match the dry-fried pig intestines.
"That's not right!" Zeng Haiguo snorted and glared, furious. "Osmanthus is sweet, and pig intestines are extremely greasy. Wouldn't pairing these two things together be counterproductive? Does this boss even know how to cook?"
Zeng Haiguo said whatever he wanted to say, and even turned around and said, "I think the food in this restaurant is not tasty at all. Lao Qi, you are not lying to us, are you?"
Qi Hongming's expression turned a little unhappy: "You said this dish is not delicious, then why don't you try it?"
The two old kids were unwilling to give in to each other.
The others could only step forward to smooth things over: "Maybe this restaurant only serves vegetarian dishes? One of you has never eaten meat here, and the other has never even eaten vegetarian food. Why are you arguing?"
Seeing this, the others picked up their chopsticks, picked up a piece of pork intestines, added osmanthus sauce, and put it in their mouths.
No matter whether it tastes good or not, you should at least try it before you are qualified to make a comment.
After eating it, several people were surprised.
"Oh, this dish sounds interesting. Let's try it together."
These old friends, all of whom have seen the world, were so shocked by a dish of sweet-scented osmanthus pork intestines.
Zeng Haiguo also realized something and quickly picked up a piece of pig intestines.
After chewing it twice, he couldn't help but frown. The pig intestines were not braised for enough time, so the taste was not very good.
In addition, although the heat was well controlled during frying, it was indeed crispy on the outside and glutinous on the inside, and it did not taste strange at all, so it was barely passing.
But as a gourmet, he could only barely eat such food and it was not considered very delicious.
I was about to comment, but the other people didn't say anything at this time. Instead, they were seriously eating the pig intestines with the thick sauce.
Is there something special about this sauce?
Zeng Haiguo quickly took another piece of pig intestine, added sauce and tasted it.
But this time, he couldn't help showing a surprised expression.
After all, this sauce looks like an ordinary osmanthus honey sauce, nothing special about it. But after eating it, the sauce tastes a bit sour and salty. It must be because some salty plums or sour plums were added to it.
There are only a few ways to make osmanthus jam, and they are all similar.
But this sauce is indeed a bit shocking. The taste of osmanthus is very soft and long-lasting, while honey is mellow and sweet with a slightly bitter aftertaste. The refreshing and salty and sour taste of plums is added to it, and the three are blended just right.
This sauce is delicious enough when eaten alone, but in this case, it complements the pig intestines very well.
Before, he really couldn't imagine what it would taste like to pair pig intestines with osmanthus flowers.
But after tasting it now, the pig intestines are crispy and glutinous, firm and smooth. The special taste of oil, coupled with the sweetness of osmanthus and the salty and sour refreshing taste of plum sauce, makes people unable to stop eating.
If the dry-fried pork intestines are just barely passable, but with this sauce, it is enough to be considered a delicacy.
He couldn't believe that the dish was so delicious. He picked up another piece of pork intestines, but it was not paired with sauce and was indeed average.
But when paired with sauce, the taste suddenly becomes different.
After eating it several times, Zeng Haiguo had to admit that this thing that looked like dark cuisine was actually really delicious.
In a short while, the whole dish was snatched away by everyone.
Everyone then stopped and their expressions became thoughtful. Although they were not very picky normally, they didn't really like pig intestines either.
If it weren't for the need to give face to Mr. Qi, many people probably wouldn't even try it.
But I didn’t expect that I just wanted to eat one to save face, but in the end everyone snatched up all the dishes.
Zeng Haiguo ate the most. He looked embarrassed and his mood became extremely complicated.
Qi Hongming only eats vegetarian food, so he watched from the side and waited for the next dish.
But when he saw everyone fighting over the food and eating up all the food on their plates without caring about their appearance, he burst out laughing.
"What did I say? I said the food here is especially delicious, Lao Zeng, do you believe it now?"
Zeng Haiguo agreed, but still insisted: "It's definitely not enough to just use pig intestines and osmanthus flowers. This dish is actually served with osmanthus sauce."
"Especially this osmanthus jam. I don't know how it's made and what kind of plums they chose, but the flavor is really good."
Qi Hongming laughed and said, "This is the boss's secret recipe, so don't ask about it."
…
Bai Mengmeng waited until the sweet osmanthus lotus root had cooled down before she cut it into slices and put them on a plate.
In fact, it’s different from what those old men think. There is no secret recipe.
It’s just a sauce made with osmanthus flowers, wild honey, and some salted plums.
These plums are green plums picked from the mountains in the summer and pickled with salt.
This thing isn't rare at all, so how could it be considered a secret recipe? The reason it's so delicious is simply because Bai Mengmeng has a natural talent.
It can enhance the taste of plants and make the most delicious food based on your feelings.
Plus, wild honey has a mellow taste, unlike domestic honey, and is full of natural flavor that makes you want to stop.
