2571 Chapter 115-breaking the inherent knowledge
Qin Yun was immersed in the delicacies, but her eyes were fixed on Yuan Zhou cooking without blinking.
He always felt very tired physically and mentally, so he could rest in the small shop where people came and went.
No matter how much trouble there was, once he overcame it, there would be a boundless sea and sky.
In order to see the complete image of Yuan Zhou cooking, she usually sat in the center of the bar counter. This way, she could see the whole situation clearly. Qin Yun was very familiar with many people in the restaurant. Even if they had never talked to each other, they had nodded to each other countless times.
Due to their close ties, the customers in the store would usually leave a seat for her when they saw Qin Yun. Therefore, even though Qin Yun was not very rich, he would still save up money to visit when he was unhappy. She felt that the store was warm. It was even warmer than wearing a down jacket in the middle of winter. It was warm, as if she was bathing in the spring breeze.
Having watched while eating many times, Qin Yun had long trained to be able to stare at Yuan Zhou all the time without affecting her eating skills at all. The key was that not only would the food not reach her nose, but she would also eat it cleanly. This required some professional skills.
Of course, most of the customers sitting at the bar counter had this skill, but the degree of proficiency was different.
Unlike Qin Yun, Li Cheng was sitting at the bar counter by chance. He did not know much about cooking and did not have any unhappy things to solve. Therefore, during the waiting interval, he closed his eyes slightly and thought about the docking plan for the foreign market after returning home.
He was racing against time and didn’t want to waste any time. Unfortunately, he didn’t have much time to spare. Soon, his attention was attracted by a burst of rich fragrance.
The sweet and sour taste attacked him densely, making him feel even hungrier. Li Cheng felt that he could probably finish a whole cow now, which showed how hungry he was.
He subconsciously turned his head and saw the plate that was getting closer and closer to him. On the snow-white plate, there were some beautiful lychees lying quietly. At first glance, he could tell that they were very fresh.
“Who ordered these fruits?” This was Li Cheng’s first reaction when he saw it. Then, as the plate was getting closer and closer, he arrived at the front of the restaurant in just a few steps. The fragrance was also getting stronger and stronger.
At this time, Li Cheng found that something was wrong. One of the lychees didn’t taste like this. The other one looked like a real lychee from a distance. When he looked closer, he could see a layer of slightly transparent sauce and steam on it. At first glance, he knew it was not a real fruit.
It was because the chef’s cutting skills and fire technique were too powerful. After the cutting skills and deep-frying, the ingredients were no different from real lychees. It was no wonder that Li Cheng would mistake them.
“Is this the lychee I I ordered?”
At this time, Li Cheng finally realized that it was probably the dish he ordered. After all, the name was very similar to the dish.
Before Li Cheng finished his mumbling, the dish was placed in front of him. The closer he got, the more obvious the fragrance became. The color was slightly red and the shape was exactly the shape of a lychee. Therefore, it was inevitable that he would mistake it for something else.
At first, he thought that the lychee meat was made from lychees. He didn’t expect it to be in the shape of a lychee. It seemed to be true to its name.
With the fragrance alluring, Li Cheng didn’t think too much about other problems. He was just stunned for a moment before he picked up the chopsticks and picked up a lychee, putting it into his mouth.
“Ka Cha!”
The sound wasn’t crisp, after all, there was a layer of sauce on the outside. But it was this slightly tough outer coat that highlighted the crispness and tenderness of the texture inside. Overall, the crisp fragrance was good, the sour and sweet taste was delicious, and it was very appetizing.
Unconsciously, Li Cheng didn’t realize that he just wanted to try it until he had eaten half of the plate.
“Not only did boss Yuan’s craftsmanship not deteriorate, it even improved so much. Although I have never eaten the min cuisine cooked by boss Yuan before, it is obviously more delicious than before.” Li Cheng continued to eat while muttering.
She had originally planned to eat it with the rice, but after taking a bite, she couldn’t convince herself to stop and wait for the rice to arrive. The best way was naturally to eat while waiting.
Therefore, Li Cheng put a lychee into his mouth one by one with his chopsticks. He swallowed it after chewing for a few times. The sweet and sour taste comforted his hungry stomach. Of course, he became hungrier, so his speed naturally became faster and faster.
By the time the egg-fried rice was served, the lychee meat had already been cleaned. It came at just the right time.
The familiar egg fried rice was a little strange. This time, Li Cheng didn’t doubt anything at first, but directly scooped a spoonful of it and put it into his mouth, which was wrapped with the egg liquid. The degree of hardness of the egg fried rice was just right, which was definitely several grades higher than the egg fried rice he had eaten in the past few years.
“I originally thought that the egg fried rice was already the most delicious. I didn’t expect that there would be another mountain higher than the previous one. Boss Yuan’s craftsmanship can even improve to such an extent.”
Li Cheng had lost the conservative image of Yuan Zhou. Now, in his heart, Yuan Zhou’s image had become extremely lofty. He felt that his talent was in doing business and Yuan Zhou’s talent was definitely in cooking. Otherwise, Yuan Zhou wouldn’t have made such rapid progress in just a few years, just like how his business had expanded so greatly in just a few years.
He had never tasted the lychee meat cooked by Yuan Zhou before, so he didn’t have any reference. He only knew that it was delicious and was also shocked by its shape and cooking method. However, he could still remember the taste of the egg fried rice after eating it several times.
Even if he himself didn’t remember it, he could still remember his tongue. Therefore, when he ate the egg fried rice again, he knew how much Yuan Zhou’s craftsmanship had improved. It was so much that even a layman like Li Cheng could feel it clearly.
“Would the sweet ‘n’ sour ribs be better?”
While eating the egg-fried rice, he kept repeating the other dishes he had ordered. As he imagined the taste, they matched each other very well.
Yuan Zhou served the dishes very quickly. Just when Li Cheng put down the plate that was as clean as new, the sweet ‘n’ sour ribs was served.
The taste that was different from the lychee meat instantly attracted the satisfied stomach that had been soothed by the egg fried rice. It immediately became active, as if the satisfaction just now was just an illusion.
Unlike the lychee meat, which had almost no gravy left, the word ‘drunken’ reflected the cooking technique of this sweet ‘n’ sour ribs the most. This was because it was not dipped in the gorse sauce, but directly seasoned and then wrapped. Therefore, apart from every rib that was fried to the right extent being covered in sauce, there was some gravy left on the plate to make the ribs even more drunken.
Moving his nose a little, Li Cheng curiously observed this dish that was also quite attractive. Then, he picked up the chopsticks and started to eat.
Probably because it was fried and crispy enough, even after it was wrapped in the soup and soaked for a while, it still didn’t feel soft. Instead, it still had a crunchy feeling.
The color was orange and very beautiful. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. With the addition of the slightly spicy soup, the ribs were added with a lot of color.
