Blissful Days After Widowhood Chapter 82: Fried fish fillets

Meng Shuangshuang glanced at him with contempt: "If that's the case, what were you bragging about just now?"

"Yes, yes, the little one is wrong, please forgive me!" The little two very cleverly apologized.

"Forget it, I won't embarrass you anymore. What delicious food do you have here, pick a few and bring them up!" Ning Xi said.

"No problem, please wait a moment, I will deliver it right away." Xiao Er turned around quickly.

"Choose the expensive ones!" Meng Shuangshuang shouted, and then curled his lips, "Ningxi, I just listened to the dishes you ordered, they all sounded delicious, I thought they were really edible. Who knows, it turned out to be an empty joy. By the way, how do you know so much, do you know how to cook those dishes?"

Ning Xi nodded: "As long as you have the materials, you can make it." She ordered the dishes just now, on the one hand, she wanted to suppress the arrogance of the little Er, on the other hand, she also had the spirit of testing, according to Rong Daquan It is said that the meat-eating culture here in Guangzhou is a bit ahead of the Central Plains region. After all, during the hundreds of years when meat was banned in the Central Plains region, the meat-eating culture here is still developing continuously, even if it was originally relatively backward. , After so many years, there should be many classic recipes out.

What Ning Xi ordered just now were all the more classic Cantonese dishes she had tasted in her previous life. She wanted to know if the cooking skills here had developed to that stage in this era, but she still let her A little disappointed.

However, apart from the lack of meat, the dishes brought by Xiao Er were considered to be very good, and he was indeed proud of the capital. After a good meal, they were naturally very satisfied, and in the end, the three of them were shy.

"Shuangshuang, pay the bill! I'm so hungry, I want to go back to sleep." Rong Daquan said with a yawn.

Meng Shuangshuang also stretched contentedly: "This meal has been the most satisfying meal for more than a month, Xiao Er, check out!"

"Come on!" Xiao Eryi threw his handkerchief and ran over quickly, "Sheng Hui is one taels of silver."

"It's a bit more expensive, but for the sake of my aunt's pleasure, I won't care about you." Meng Shuangshuang said while reaching for the money, suddenly with a face, she hurriedly stood up and touched her body desperately. , "Where is the silver, why is the silver gone?"

Little Er's face changed a bit, but he still said politely, "Miss, can you look for it again?

Meng Shuangshuang was so anxious that the sweat on her forehead came out: "What's the matter, there is no silver note."

"Did you forget to bring it out?" Ning Xi asked.

"No, didn't you see me wearing it?"

"Ah, I remembered!" Meng Shuangshuang suddenly slapped the table, "It must be those **** who bumped into me just now, see if I don't clean them up!" He rolled up his sleeves and went out.

Little Er stretched out her hand to stop her: "Girl, you haven't paid enough money yet!"

Meng Shuangshuang jumped and said, "Didn't you hear me, our money was stolen."

Little Er blocked her way: "It's up to you to steal or not, but we can't eat free food in our store."

"But how do we pay the bill if we don't have any money? You ask us to report to the official first, and when our money is recovered, we can naturally pay you the bill."

"I'm sorry, we don't take any credit. If you want to go out, you need to pay the bill first!" Xiao Eryi pretended not to let anyone see the money.

Ningxi pulled Lamen Shuangshuang: "Forget it, Shuangshuang, let's think about it again!"

"What else can I do!" Meng Shuangshuang was so angry that all the money was on her body, and for the convenience of going out, the two girls didn't even wear a single valuable jewelry on their heads.

The second child looked at them: "If you have any relatives or friends nearby, we can send someone to report you a letter."

Ning Xi said: "Thank you little brother, let's think of a way!"

The little Er couldn't keep staring at them, and was soon called over by the person at the next table: "What's the matter with your fish? It's dry and firewood, shouldn't it be fooling us with dead fish! "

Little Er hurriedly said: "Guest officer, you can't say this casually. The fish in our shop are all freshly slaughtered live fish."

"Tell your boss to come and have a look!" The guest pointed to the plate of steamed fish on the table and said, "Look, the whole plate is full of water, and the meat is all sliced, how do you want people to eat it!"

"Guest officer, the steamed fish in our restaurant has been like this for a long time, and other customers have never made any comments. If you don't believe me, you can go to the back kitchen to have a look. They are all kept in buckets. Fresh live fish."

"Second brother, you 'lost soul fish' can't be eaten by other guests, but it doesn't mean that real sloppy guests can't eat it either. , I will remake a plate of delicious fish for the guests." Ning Xi couldn't help saying.

"Lost, lost soul fish? What do you mean by that?" The little two said with his hips on his waist, "You free-spirited people, what a mess!"

Ning Xi was not angry, she smiled slightly and said, "Your fish were all brought by the fishermen in the morning, right?"

Xiao Er said proudly: "Of course, it's all lively and fresh."

"Then may I ask, little brother, when did the fishermen catch this fish?"

"Of course it was last night or early this morning."

"That's right, that's how it is. A fish is hunted in the water for a long time, picked up and put on hold for a long time before being slaughtered. Naturally, it becomes a 'lost soul fish'. Although it is still alive and dead, it is like being dragged to accompany the executioner, and it is frightening.

Little Er sneered: "All the fish in restaurants are bought from fishermen. According to you, where can there be delicious fish to eat?"

Ning Xi said: "The subtle differences between these are naturally indistinguishable by ordinary people's tongues, but an old glutton like this guest can't be fooled at will. Steaming fish means eating the word 'fresh'. , that is, catch, slaughter, and cook, so that the fish will not be tortured by the fear of death, and before it has time to send the panic signal to the whole body, it will eat it, and that kind of meat is the most delicious.”

Rong Daquan on the side suddenly realized and nodded: "No wonder we never sell steamed fish in Shuangxi Lou, so that's the reason."

"Well said!" Ning Xi turned around and saw a middle-aged man clapping his hands and walking over, "Listening to the girl's words is better than reading ten years of books. It's the first time in the more than ten years since I opened a restaurant. It's really interesting to hear such a statement." It turned out that this was the owner of Tongxing Building, I heard someone say that there are customers here who are not satisfied, so I came to check it out, but I didn't expect to hear what Ning Xi said.

Boss Cai continued: "Cai wants to ask the girl, this fish should not be steamed, but I don't know how to fix it?"

Ning Xi said: "Boss Cai, how about we make a deal?"

"Oh? What does the girl mean?"

"It's like this. We only found out that the money was stolen after we finished our meal. Now we have no money to pay the bill. We are in a dilemma. If I can help Boss Cai make a fish meal that will satisfy this guest, you will be spared. What do you think about our meal price?" Ning Xi said.

Boss Cai was shocked: "Is there such a thing? I'm really sorry, I have neglected the girl and your friends. If nothing else, just rely on the girl you just said about the 'lost soul fish', It's enough to offset today's meal money, how can I ask the girl to help, but if the girl is willing to teach me, Cai is very grateful."

Ning Xi smiled: "Is it convenient to go to your kitchen?"

"Please!" Boss Cai held out his hand.

It's easy for Ning Xi to make a delicious fish meal. She doesn't even need to make a complicated dish like the braised silver carp head. enough.

Actually, when her cooking skills are at her level, it doesn't matter what dishes you make. Whether the dishes are complicated or not is just a skill. For her, the simpler the method, the better Her cooking skills are superb.

Ningxi cut the freshly killed fresh fish into about 1 inch thick slices, marinated them with seasoning, added winter bamboo shoots, mushrooms, celery stalks, seasoned with salt and sauce, fry them quickly, and finally seasoned them with soybean flour Soup, in just a moment, a plate of fried fish fillets is ready.

Boss Cai just felt dizzy for a while, but before he could see clearly, the dish was already out of the pot: "This, is this all right?"

Ning Xi smiled and nodded: "That's right."

Probably Ningxi's self-confidence restrained him, and Boss Cai sent the dishes in the mood to give it a try.

Ning Xi noticed that the nitpicking guest turned out to be a clear-cut old man. He didn't look like a vexatious person at all. It seemed that if he didn't come to make trouble on purpose, then he was really a good eater. People who pay great attention and are not at all unwilling to force their appetite.

I saw this guest also picked up a piece of fish fillet with a suspicious look on his face, reluctantly put it in his mouth and took a bite, chewed it twice, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly put the remaining half of the fish fillet in In the mouth, this time, I closed my eyes and tasted intoxicated.

The last high-five: "Good craftsmanship!" He opened his eyes sharply, took one bite after another, and kept eating. He looked so impatient that several people at the table couldn't help drooling.

Boss Cai thought to himself, if he knew he was in the kitchen just now, he would try it first. I really want to eat it!

After eating a plate of fish fillets, the old man stroked his stomach contentedly: "Today is a worthwhile trip!" He looked up and down Ning Xi, "Is this dish really made by your little girl?
