Chapter 446 Candied Yam

Among the enthusiastic diners, some seemed relatively calm.

They are also chefs and know the difficulty of making Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.

Therefore, while being amazed and shocked by the taste of this dish, I also felt more powerless in my heart——

Ah, we are outdone... We lost! There was another person who had the same thought.

That was the old man who sat at the same table with Xiao Cai.

From the time the old man put the black jar on the table, to opening the lid, and then to taking the first sip of soup, he looked solemn and dazed the whole time, as if he was facing an unsolved world-class mystery.

Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is an extremely precious dish, and its preparation is complicated and exquisite. It combines multiple cooking methods such as stewing, frying, steaming and boiling. It brings together sea cucumbers, shark fins, abalone, scallops, fish lips, fish maw, razor clams, ham and pork tripe, lamb elbows, hoof tips, tendons, mushrooms, etc. It can be said to be a mixture of delicacies from land and sea.

The complexity of the ingredients means that the difficulty of preparation also increases accordingly.

Especially these dozens of ingredients, not only do they need to be fresh, but each one also needs to be handled carefully and professionally.

Some ingredients need to be soaked, some need to be cooked, and some need to be fried...

After processing the ingredients in different ways, a special jar for Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is selected, all the ingredients are poured in, and then pure Fujian old wine is poured in. The ingredients are wrapped in lotus leaves and simmered over low heat for more than ten hours. Finally, the ultimate delicious taste of the jar is brewed.

A successful Buddha Jumps Over the Wall should be one in which the flavors of all the ingredients blend wonderfully together to brew a new and unique aroma, while at the same time retaining the characteristics of the ingredients themselves, penetrating each other and creating flavors within flavors.

These expensive raw materials have to go through complex processing and a slow process to bring out the most authentic and charming aroma of all the ingredients.

Of course, Nanzhi’s Buddha Jumps Over the Wall can no longer be simply described as “successful”.

It should be... reaching the pinnacle!

Can you imagine that in a profession like cooking, which requires time to accumulate experience, there is such a genius who transcends all rules and common sense and emerges like a comet, shining in the sky?

Even Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, a dish that requires the most effort, patience and control of the heat, she cooks with ease.

Is this... really something that ordinary people can do?

The old man looked confused.

Beside her, Xiao Cai had already carefully tasted a bowl of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. Looking at the empty jar in the middle of the table, she kept licking her lips and had a bold idea -

If she picks up this jar and licks it...

Suddenly, Xiao Cai felt that something was wrong with the surrounding vision.

When she turned around, she found that several pairs of eyes of her classmates were staring at the small black jar, and the thoughts flashing in their eyes were obviously the same as hers...

Reserved? Demeanor? Image?

It was so funny. In front of the absolute delicious food, these things didn’t exist at all! Just when Xiao Cai was hesitating whether to fight with the people at the same table just to lick the jar, the waiter appeared again and took the jar away with a merciful yet cruel attitude... took the jar away! The jar was taken away! Xiao Cai: “Hey——”

Others: “Hey——”

A collective sigh echoed in the house.

Everyone was a little embarrassed, but soon they started laughing again.

Xiao Cai smacked her lips, quickly picked up her phone, and shared her thoughts with the netizens who had been waiting for a long time.

This time, she did not describe the decline in a long paragraph, but only a short sentence:

【Xiao Cai: Sisters, I have eaten Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, and my life is complete. 】

The last dish of the main course is revealed! Buddha Jumps Over the Wall! [Hahahaha I guessed right... Woohoo what a pity I can't have it...]

[The sister upstairs interprets my expression in real time! ]

[Is it really that exaggerated? I think Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is OK. It seems to be sold everywhere. It’s just so-so.]

[Haha, people who say this have never tasted the authentic Buddha Jumps Over the Wall! Compared to it, the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall sold in some stores can only be said to be hot pot water! ]

[Let me just say this: if the price of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is not over four figures, don’t eat it, it’s all garbage! ]

[Only four figures? It must be at least 5,000, right? The ingredients alone are worth more than that. ]

[Oh my god, who can afford this? ]

[Well, I actually ate Buddha Jumps Over the Wall at the No. 1 restaurant in a certain province. It cost 9999 and it was really the best delicacy in the world! ]

[I wonder if the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall made by Sister Zhi can compare with the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall made by 9999. ]

[I'm at Yongnianlou. I've also eaten the 9999 Buddha Jumps Over the Wall you mentioned. How should I put it? Compared with the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall I had today, it's still a bit inferior.]

[Do you have to be so exaggerated? Can Nanzhi's craftsmanship be so good? ]

[I am impressed by some people. Many diners have come out to tell their own stories, but you just don’t believe it no matter what! ]

[I don't believe it either! So I asked Nanzhi to kill me with her skills! Otherwise I will never accept it! ]

[You are a pretty good abacus guy! ]

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

…

Seeing that the post he sent out was liked, commented, and forwarded in a short period of time, Xiao Cai was happy. He wanted to write something more professional, so he turned around and asked the old man next to him.

"Grandpa, can you please give me and the netizens some more comments on this? Tell me and the netizens what exactly is so difficult about this Buddha Jumps Over the Wall?"

Xiao Cai blinked and looked at the old man expectantly.

However, the old man, who had been talkative and calm throughout the meal, fell into a strange silence.

After a long while, he sighed and said, "...I'm sorry, I don't know what to say."

Seeing the old man's expression seemed to be lost, Xiao Cai felt very upset and hurried to comfort him:

"No, no, you don't have to tell me this specifically. This is not what you are supposed to do... I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that."

Xiao Cai thought she was causing trouble to the old man.

The old man saw her guilt, shook his head and said:

"It's not your problem, it's my problem."

He stared blankly at the small, clean bottom of the bowl, unable to speak.

After the main course, the banquet is gradually coming to an end.

In order to give the tongue a new experience after a full meal, beets are served next.

A seemingly ordinary dish of sweet potato with sugar.

Everyone thought, "Having already tasted Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, how can we taste other dishes?" and casually picked up a piece of golden yam...

The dense sugar threads connect the yam and the plate like a spider web.

The diner was a little surprised and quickly dipped it in cold water.

Wait until the sugar filaments solidify and become crispy before putting them into your mouth and biting down -

Sweet and soft, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

It can’t compare to the rich and delicious Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, but it is very suitable as a garnish near the end of the meal.

It seemed to have opened up the taste buds that were wrapped in the heavy taste, allowing them to regain consciousness and cautiously explore the outside world...
