Chapter 439: Still Underestimated
When Lu Ziyi heard this, her eyes widened.
"What a ghost! This is my dark history! If this gets out, how will I live my life in the future?"
As she spoke, she opened the diary and pointed to page after page.
"Look at this and this. Once these contents are sent out, I will be too embarrassed to face anyone!"
Seeing that Lu Ziyi was in a bad mood, Xiaolei knew that it would be futile to persuade her at this moment, so she decided to change the subject.
"Let's not talk about the diary for now. Let's eat first. Look, the food is almost cold. It won't taste good if it's cold."
When Lu Ziyi heard this, her attention was successfully diverted.
The aroma of pickled fish and shredded potatoes lingered in the air, making people start to swallow their saliva like crazy, and their stomachs growled a few times.
"Okay, let's eat first."
Lu Ziyi sighed helplessly and put down the diary in her hand.
They each served themselves a serving of rice, pointed the camera back at the dining table, and carefully adjusted the shooting angle.
Lu Ziyi picked up the bowl of rice, looked at the delicious dishes in front of her, and decided to turn her grief and anger into appetite.
First pick up a handful of shredded potatoes with chopsticks.
The long, thin potato shreds glowed glossy under the light, and the rising hot steam, carrying a rich, sour and spicy flavor, went straight into her nose, instantly arousing her strong appetite.
As soon as the teeth lightly touch the shredded potatoes, a crisp "crunch" sound is heard, and the perfect sour taste instantly bursts out in the mouth, stimulating every taste bud.
Immediately afterwards, the spiciness brought by the chili starts from the tip of the tongue and gradually spreads to the throat.
The spiciness is not abrupt, nor does it make people feel uncomfortable, and it blends well with the sour taste.
As soon as she smelled the fragrance, Lu Ziyi felt that this dish must be delicious.
However, when she actually put the shredded potatoes into her mouth, she realized that she had underestimated it.
"Wow, this is definitely the perfect dish to go with rice! Even though the shredded potatoes are chopped very finely, they're incredibly crispy and retain that refreshing crunch. Plus, the sour and spicy flavors are a perfect combination—it's truly delicious!"
After finishing the explanation, Lu Ziyi turned to look at Xiaolei: "What do you think?"
Xiaolei was immersed in it and couldn't extricate herself.
She raised her head blankly, with white rice grains on the corners of her mouth, her cheeks bulging with food, and she kept chewing the food in her mouth.
I only had time to make a vague "hmm" sound.
He quickly picked up a handful of shredded potatoes with the chopsticks in his right hand and put it into his mouth impatiently. He had no time to care about anything else and couldn't speak at all.
Looking at Xiaolei wolfing down her food, Lu Ziyi suspected that if she pressed him any further, this guy might spray rice all over her face while talking.
She showed a speechless expression, shook her head, and looked at the pot of pickled fish in the middle of the dining table that was emitting an enticing aroma.
Remembering that she had seen Su Chen carefully prepare this soup base with fresh fish heads and fish bones, Lu Ziyi decided to taste the soup first.
She gently picked up the soup spoon, carefully skimmed off the grease floating on the surface, scooped up a spoonful of milky white fish soup with finely chopped sauerkraut and peppercorns floating in it, and took a sip.
With this bite, the rich and fresh aroma instantly fills your mouth, and you can clearly taste that the fish soup is cooked to perfection.
Then, the sour taste with a bit of spiciness suddenly exploded on the tip of the tongue.
The temperature of the soup was just right, not too hot, and it flowed slowly down my throat, warming my entire stomach.
Lu Ziyi's eyes lit up, she put down the soup spoon, and couldn't wait to pick up a piece of fish with chopsticks.
As soon as her chopsticks lightly touched the fish fillet, she could clearly feel its tenderness and smoothness, which almost slipped through her chopsticks.
She quickly caught it in a bowl, carefully put the fish fillet into her mouth, and took a sip.
In an instant, the fish meat melted in the mouth, so soft that there was almost no resistance, and there was no fishy smell at all, only a full sense of freshness spreading freely in the mouth.
This piece of fish fully absorbed the essence of the soup, and the sour, spicy, fresh and fragrant flavors were cleverly intertwined together, stimulating her taste buds.
She couldn't help but let out a sigh of satisfaction and murmured to herself, "This is so delicious!"
After tasting the fish, she was still not satisfied, so she took a bite of the pickled cabbage.
The sauerkraut leaves still retain their texture, and you can feel their slight elasticity when you pick them up.
As she put it in her mouth and chewed it, the rich sour taste was even more mellow than that in the soup, and each bite was accompanied by a "crunching" sound. The unique taste and rich sour taste were very appetizing, and she instantly whetted her appetite.
The sourness of sauerkraut and the freshness of fish soup blend perfectly.
Every bite you take is so addictive that you can’t stop eating it.
Lu Ziyi cleared her throat gently, sat up straight, and smiled at the camera: "This pot of pickled fish is absolutely the most authentic I've ever eaten! No doubt!"
"Really, it tastes even better than the ones in the old-fashioned shops I used to go to!"
As she spoke, she used chopsticks to gently push away the red oil on the surface of the soup, revealing the snow-white fish fillets.
"The fish fillet is tender and fresh, the pickled cabbage is crisp and flavorful, and the soup is sour and spicy. I can eat two big bowls of it with rice!"
After saying that, she turned to look at Xiaolei and found that she was still with her head buried, eating like a food machine.
The rice in the bowl dropped rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The plate of spicy and sour potato shreds on the table was already half empty, and the sauerkraut fish, which was originally full of fish fillets, had visibly shrunk a lot.
Seeing this, Lu Ziyi's voice rose eight degrees in anger: "Why are you just busy eating?"
"We're filming a video! Could you at least give us a comment?"
Xiao Lei finally raised her head, her mouth full, and she mumbled, "Yeah, yeah, you're right."
Before he could finish his words, he quickly stretched out his chopsticks, picked up a large piece of fish, and stuffed it into his mouth impatiently, as if he was afraid that someone would snatch it away.
Seeing these dishes disappear in Xiaolei's mouth at such an astonishing speed, Lu Ziyi no longer had time to say anything more.
If you have a friend who is only focused on eating, if you don’t hurry up, the food will be eaten up.
So, Lu Ziyi no longer hesitated and immediately joined the battle.
Soon, the only sounds in the restaurant were the constant chewing and occasional arguments like "This fish fillet is mine!" and "Leave some sauerkraut for me!"
The red indicator light of the camera next to it flashed quietly, faithfully recording everything.
When the last piece of pickled cabbage was snatched away by Xiaolei, Lu Ziyi collapsed in the chair and burped loudly, feeling completely unable to move.
The food I ate was about to come out of my throat.
Even she herself found her appetite today a little unbelievable.
