Chapter 62 Unique Taste
Zhou Yu walked into the kitchen and saw Li Guomin and his aunt Fang Huimin busy. In addition to Village Chief Yao and Master Xu, there were other customers in the store.
"Xiaoyu, why are you here in the kitchen? This is not a good place. Go out quickly and don't get dirty." Fang Huimin said quickly when she saw Zhou Yu walking in.
"Auntie, it's okay, I'm not afraid of dirt. Uncle, what specialty are you going to cook for that gourmet?" Zhou Yu waved his hand and smiled, then walked to Li Guomin and asked curiously.
Li Guomin was also a little hesitant, "I just met Village Chief Yao and Master Xu at the door and went to Lao Yu's place next door. My skills are not much better than Lao Yu. He couldn't satisfy his foodie. I guess I'm in trouble."
"Uncle, it's okay, I'll choose your best choice. I have a way to satisfy him." Zhou Yu showed a mysterious smile on his face.
"My best is braised fish, but Xiaoyu, how can you satisfy him?" Li Guomin asked in confusion.
Zhou Yu thought about it, took out the seasoning jar from his pocket and handed it to Li Guomin, "This is a secret seasoning developed by a friend of mine. It can make the dishes taste more delicious. I have tried it, and the taste has indeed improved a lot."
Originally, he wanted to find an opportunity to sprinkle some fairy-flavored powder while Li Guomin was cooking, but after thinking about it, he thought it would be better for chef Li Guomin to master the heat.
Li Guomin took the ordinary seasoning pot with doubt, then poured some out in his hand, smelled it with his nose, and showed a look of surprise on his face, "This seasoning has a unique fragrance, which is completely beyond the ones I have used before."
"Uncle, slow down, don't waste it. This seasoning is not just a spice. You will know after using it." Seeing Li Guomin pouring a little casually, Zhou Yu said quickly.
After hearing what Zhou Yu said, Li Guomin was a little curious, "Is there anything strange about this seasoning? By the way, are there any particular things to pay attention to when using it?"
"There is no need to pay attention to it. Put whatever seasoning should be added. Don't sprinkle too much when using it, just the right amount." Zhou Yu shook his head and then gave instructing him.
Li Guomin nodded, feeling a little confused, "Okay, let's see what magical things will be like this kind of seasoning. Xiaoyu, are you going to wait in the kitchen or go out to wait."
"Hehe, of course, I'm waiting in the kitchen, uncle, you can't let others know this kind of seasonings casually." Zhou Yu smiled. He could take it out in front of Li Guomin now because he wanted to use this kind of seasonings to help his uncle improve his business.
If the Xianwei Fruit Tree can only produce these ten cans of seasoning, he naturally would not do this. But now, it can be produced continuously. Take out one can of each batch and dilute it. It will definitely bring many loyal customers to Li Guomin's store. As for the rest, it will be sold to others.
"Don't worry, if the seasoning is so magical, how could your aunt and I tell you? Okay, now I'm going to start making it. There's a pickled little yellow croaker that is very suitable for making braised fish."
Li Guomin nodded again, then took out the pickled yellow croaker and started making braised fish.
During the production process, Zhou Yu kept watching. Although braised fish is just a home-cooked dish, it is not possible for anyone to make it delicious.
He saw that Li Guomin used high heat, medium heat and low heat alternately when making it, and frying fish in the pot while cutting vegetables, which seemed easy. If he had done it, he would have been in a hurry and didn't know what to do.
Finally, after the fish were frying, Li Guomin put all the seasonings such as garlic, ginger, green onions on the chopping board into the pot, and at the same time, the seasonings were also added. After putting them in, he picked up the seasoning jar next to him, hesitated for a while, then knocked them into the pot a few times, and sprinkled some in them.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Yu couldn't help but smile. It was natural for Li Guomin to hesitate. This was a seasoning that he was not familiar with.
After all the seasonings were put, Li Guomin added some cooking wine, aged vinegar and other things to begin the final production process.
In the final process, a tempting fragrance began to slowly emit from the pot, "This, this fragrance is so pleasing to the appetite. Is this seasoning really that amazing?" Li Guomin took a sip and said in disbelief.
He just poured out a little seasoning and smelled it. There was a unique fragrance, which he was skeptical of its effect. But now, the tempting aroma that he had never seen before when making braised fish in the pot shocked him.
"Haha, uncle, if you don't have gold and steel diamonds, how can you take care of porcelain? This seasoning is so magical, it can perfectly blend ingredients with other seasonings." Zhou Yu said with a smile. The aroma of this fairy-flavored fruit powder on braised fish is much better than that of scrambled eggs.
Li Guomin was a little unbelievable and reached out to pick up the seasoning pot next to him. He really didn't expect that the seasoning that Zhou Yu took out would have such an effect. He couldn't help asking: "Do you have this seasoning if you have that friend?"
"The plants that make this seasoning are not so easy to cultivate, so he only gave me one can for the time being, and try the effect first, and all of this must be kept confidential."
Zhou Yu shook his head. He could help his uncle improve some business, but he could not put all the fairy-flavored fruits in this small food stall because it was impossible to digest it with the ability of the store.
"Okay, okay, Huimin, today's matter must be kept confidential." Li Guomin hurriedly said to Zhou Yu's aunt Fang Huimin.
"Don't worry, will I harm Xiaoyu?" Fang Huimin looked at the dishes in the pot with surprise and nodded without hesitation.
Soon, the braised fish was finished. Li Guomin poured the fish and soup onto the plate, and the aroma was even more intense, making people unable to help but want to taste it.
"Uncle, this can of seasoning is not much use yet. There are opportunities in the future. I will send it to Village Chief Yao and the others first. If they ask, don't tell the seasonings." Seeing Li Guomin's index finger twitching, Zhou Yu hurriedly said, "It can make a restaurant owner so unbearable, and you can imagine the ability of Xianwei Fruit."
Li Guomin gradually recovered his calmness and nodded, "Don't worry, I know what to do, let's go out, you can put away this seasoning first." Then, he handed the seasoning jar next to Zhou Yu.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Yu felt emotion, carefully put it away, and covered the plate with Li Guomin and took it out.
"Captain Yao, my best braised fish is here." Li Guomin walked over with confidence and placed the plate on the tables of the two of them.
Village Chief Yao said good things twice. As for the foodie Master Xu, he looked calm and calm, as if he believed that the food in the food stall would not make him moved.
When Li Guomin carefully took off the lid, a strong fragrance that had been accumulated for a long time suddenly emanated from the plate.
Smelling this fragrance, Village Chief Yao's face showed a strange color, "This, this braised fish smells so good."
At this time, Master Xu, who had a dull face before, could no longer remain calm after smelling the fragrance. His face changed and his eyes were staring at the braised fish on the table.
The braised fish looks ordinary and has nothing surprising. It cannot compare to what was made in a big hotel, but it exudes an attractive fragrance, which makes him confused. Even if he, a person who has tasted countless delicacies, can't help but want to taste it when he smells the fragrance.
"Master Xu, let's try it first." Village Chief Yao said happily as he looked at the expression of the gourmet chef next to him.
"Okay, try it first." Master Xu nodded, but took out the chopsticks faster than Village Chief Yao, and gently picked up a piece of fish on the small yellow croaker.
After putting this piece of fish into his mouth, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and then he suppressed the curiosity in his heart and slowly tasted the piece of fish.
This is a braised fish made of small yellow meat. He has eaten countless precious braised fish, but none of them can bring him such a wonderful feeling.
Especially the aroma emitted in it makes people feel refreshed, and the delicious taste brought by fish makes people feel the refreshing food.
At this moment, Master Xu had no intention of commenting at all, and picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks again.
As for Village Chief Yao next to him, he no longer cared about this matter, and he was also eating enthusiastically.
There were Li Guomin and Zhou Yu next to him, watching Village Chief Yao and Master Xu eating fish one by one.
Zhou Yu cursed in his heart, why is he so unhappy when he sees others eating?
Until he ate the whole plate of fish completely and didn't even leave the vegetables on it, Master Xu then raised his head and said in amazement: "This braised little yellow croaker tastes unique, it is the most unique portion I have ever tasted, no doubt about it."
"The various seasonings inside seem to be completely integrated into the fish meat, as if the fish is born so delicious, with some shortcomings in the heat and color of the dish. However, this unique and wonderful taste completely covers up these shortcomings. After eating them, the only thing that exists in your heart is this taste, an unforgettable taste."
"Who made this dish?" Master Xu asked Zhou Yu and Li Guomin in front of him.
