Chapter 923 The Ancestor of Knife
After staring at the fish with fine white meat and a fragrant smell as if it had been unsealed for a long time, he couldn't wait to start eating it.
Putting the fish into Lu Jinxiu's bowl, Jian Yan said with a smile, "Try it and see how it tastes."
"You eat too." Lu Jinxiu also picked up a piece of fish belly meat and put it into her bowl before starting to eat.
As soon as he put the fish into his mouth, his eyes lit up. There was not a trace of residual fishy or earthy smell, only the river fish itself was brought to its extreme freshness.
The perfect combination of the aroma of secret soy sauce, the pungent flavor of chopped green onions and the slightly spicy chili pepper is so fresh that it makes people feel trance-like.
“This fish is delicious.”
Lu Jinxiu praised, and Qin Che, who also picked up a piece of fish and put it into his mouth, hummed, "It's delicious, but it has bones."
"The thorns can be eaten too." Jian Yan smiled and picked up a piece of moose nose and put it into Lu Jinxiu's bowl, then continued.
Lu Jinci, who was picking out fish bones, was stunned for a moment. Then he stared at the fish bone he had picked out for a long time and said hesitantly, "If I'm not mistaken, this fish bone looks a bit like shredded ham."
Jian Yan hummed and said, "It's a bit similar, it's actually shredded ham."
“The scales are also made from ham, so both are edible.”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then they stopped picking out the bones and scales and directly put the whole piece of fish into their mouths. After eating it, they found that fish bones and scales were really edible.
And the taste is surprisingly good.
The ham has a salty and smoky aroma of fruit wood. This aroma is a bit special. Those who love it love it to the bone, while those who hate it feel nauseous when they smell it. But when paired with this freshwater fish that has been stimulated to bring out the ultimate freshness, the taste is particularly intoxicating.
The taste is more layered.
"Could it be that even the head of this fish is made of ham?" Jian Xun asked in surprise.
Jian Yan smiled and nodded, "Yes, this fish has no bones, you can eat it with confidence."
"You removed all the fish bones and cooked it, so why is the tail still moving?" Qin Che asked the question in his mind, puzzled.
Jian Yan didn't intend to hide it and told the secret directly, but everyone present didn't understand. Looking at their expressions, her eyelids twitched and she waved her hand, "Forget it, you should just focus on eating. Things related to cooking are not something you can understand."
This is the truth.
But don’t they have any dignity left by saying so bluntly that she dislikes them?
The box was quiet for a few moments, and then immediately became lively.
"Sister-in-law, I think you need to understand the meaning of the saying 'Every profession has its own specialization'. We don't know much about cooking, so it's normal that we don't understand your tips. What do you think?"
"Yeah, you're right."
"Although I haven't figured out the principle behind your trick, I do know that your knife skills have reached the pinnacle."
"No, I'm still far from that. The people who achieved the pinnacle of knife skills were those who carried out the punishment of flaying in ancient times. They were the ancestors of knife use."
Lu Jinxiu and the others knew about the punishment of flaying, and as soon as this word came out, everyone immediately became interested.
Li Shaofeng, "Is there really someone who can cut someone into pieces and not let them die?"
"I don't know, but I think it should be possible, otherwise the phrase 'cut into pieces' wouldn't come out. Besides, in ancient times, executioners relied on their skills to make a living, so they had to have good mental qualities and skills."
"You haven't reached that point yet?"
Jian Yan glanced at Xiao Mufeng who was asking the question and chuckled, "I don't know, how about trying it on you?"
