Chapter 117 Garlic Pork
When the bright red, soft, glutinous and mellow piece of meat was picked up, the chopsticks even sank slightly into the fat part.
The visual impact at that moment was still very obvious.
Li Chengxiang couldn't help but exclaim in admiration: "So tender!"
The skin with fat was already trembling, and with a little force from the chopsticks, it could be completely embedded in!
The rich aroma becomes more and more tempting as it gets closer to your mouth and nose.
Li Chengxiang smelled it for just one second, felt it, and then put it directly into his mouth.
The first feeling when you put it in your mouth is freshness. When your lips and teeth touch it lightly, the fat part has melted away, and the lean meat part still retains a little hardness, but it is not dry and woody. With a light bite, it collapses between your lips and teeth.
The mellow fragrance, wrapped in sweet taste, wanders madly between the lips and teeth, as if to leave its traces in every corner.
The sweetness is endless as soon as you take a bite, and you can’t help but look forward to the next piece!
It is fat but not greasy, soft but not dry, mellow and delicious, soft, glutinous and slightly sweet.
Li Chengxiang couldn't help shaking his head and said in a low voice: Okay!
After eating a piece of meat, Li Chengxiang felt satisfied.
He didn't rush to eat the next piece of meat, but put the shiny piece of meat on the white rice.
The bright red and the translucent white, the fragrant meat and the lightly scented rice, form a contrast in color and smell, just like a perfect pair.
They are clearly separated from each other, but at the moment the braised pork pieces are placed on the rice, they slowly merge into one, emitting an attractive and rich aroma, tempting every diner passing by.
Li Chengyue is tasting garlic pork.
The ingredients themselves are good enough, so the meat tastes particularly delicious.
When chewing it carefully, Li Chengyue even had the illusion of returning to his childhood.
Passing through the long and hazy years, I returned to my childhood when life was not rich.
At that time...
I may only have the chance to eat meat once every three or two months.
At that time, there weren’t too many seasonings or ideas for braising, stir-frying, etc.
Simple garlic pork is easy and time-saving, yet still fragrant enough.
My mother cut the meat into thin slices so that everyone in the family could have a chance to taste a piece.
The pork at that time seemed particularly fragrant.
In the era of food and clothing shortages, now that I have enough food in my stomach, I feel less anxious and life seems to have more hope.
Since when did meat lose its fragrance and vegetables lose their taste?
Li Chengyue actually didn't know either.
However, she knew that the garlic pork in front of her really gave her the illusion of returning to her childhood.
She didn't feel panicked, but instead thought it was a good thing.
Those past events that had gradually faded away with the passage of time suddenly became vivid and clear.
She chewed it carefully, feeling it slowly.
Then, when he looked up, Li Chengyue saw Li Chengxiang shaking his head because of the delicious braised pork.
It’s just like when I was a kid, every time I ate something delicious.
Li Chengxiang was born late, and life was much better at that time.
But it is still far behind today.
After so many years, the way my brother eats hasn't changed.
Seeing him like that, Li Chengyue's curiosity was also aroused.
In Li Chengyue's opinion, braised pork is delicious, but garlic pork is not bad either.
The rustic taste of the ingredients themselves is really tempting!
However, at this time, she wanted to try the braised pork.
Picking up a piece with chopsticks, the trembling look is indeed tempting.
Seeing that he had just exerted a little force and the chopsticks had embedded into the fat, Li Chengyue couldn't help swallowing.
When the soft, glutinous and mellow braised pork chunks entered his mouth, Li Chengyue finally understood why his brother was shaking his head.
This meat is really delicious!
It is fragrant but not greasy. Long after swallowing, there is still a hint of sweetness between the lips and teeth, which makes people want to savor it!
Good meat, good cooking, good taste!
After swallowing a mouthful, Li Chengyue couldn't help but mutter, "Young boss, your cooking skills are quite good, and the ingredients are good too. It's worth the price."
Li Cheng, who was sitting opposite, was so engrossed in eating that he didn't even raise his head, but after hearing this, he nodded in agreement.
The old men next door were also praising Sheng Jiu's cooking skills: "This tastes really good, the meat is good, and the cooking skills are good. After eating this bite, I feel that it is worth dying for."
"Stop saying that! It's so unlucky! If you die now, you won't be able to eat the new product tomorrow."
The old man, who originally thought he had become indifferent to life and death, immediately shrank his neck when he heard this: "That's right, if I don't want to die, I have to live well!"
The braised pork has a rich aroma, and the garlic-mashed pork has a simple texture.
The uncles ordered both, and they couldn't help wanting to finish both.
but……
In the end, they were still concerned about their blood lipids, and in the end they all restrained themselves a little.
The aunt group didn’t order anything, but they were all so greedy that their eyes turned red.
Woohoo, I want to eat! However, they have a physical checkup scheduled for this month, and if the results are not good, their children will definitely complain.
In the end, the aunts were all jealous, but no one broke the rules and ordered some meat.
Moreover, they supervise each other.
When they left, they each packed some star date tea.
Before leaving, several aunts were still muttering in a low voice: "God damn, why does this meat smell so good?"
“Who says it’s not?”
…
The old man's team had almost finished eating, and they packed up the remaining meat to take home and continue eating, or shared it with their spouses.
Grandpa Sun also ordered a cup of jujube tea, and Grandpa Zhou ordered a bowl of ginseng millet porridge.
His wife recovered very slowly after the operation. As an elderly person, her functions are not as good as before.
The doctor advised him to take appropriate supplements, but his wife didn’t like the various supplements that Mr. Zhou had taken before.
But my wife ate up all the millet porridge I brought back and seemed to be savoring it.
However, after I heard that millet porridge cost 300 yuan a bowl, I never mentioned the porridge was delicious again.
Uncle Zhou knew that his wife was stingy with money.
However, he also felt sorry for his wife. Look at Old Sun and Old Xu, who are now all alone without their spouses...
It’s better to have a partner!
After Mr. Zhou finished ordering, he did not forget to order an extra bowl of jujube tea.
When Chen Meixi came in holding Duoduo's hand, the old men had just left and Ares and Yuanke were cleaning.
Ares was quick and efficient, while Yuanke was slow and almost dropped the plate.
Sheng Jiu heard the noise, looked out, found that nothing was wrong, and went back to the kitchen.
When Chen Meixi came in, she was startled by this scene. She held Duoduo's hand tightly before looking up at the menu.
After seeing this, Chen Meixi took a breath.
Is this so expensive?
The high price made Chen Meixi want to back out, but she didn't want to disappoint her daughter. She hesitated for a while before speaking hesitantly: "Please, can I order half a portion?"
