“Dudu lotus seafood soup.”

Looking at the pot of soup made from crabs and lotus seeds in front of him, Bai Qiyun felt that he was getting hungry again after having breakfast.

"Hey, big brother, this is a famous dish of deer hunters. I think tourists who come to Mondstadt like to order this. Try it."

Facing this bowl of such fragrant food, Keli didn't look shaken at all, and was even a little impatient when she pushed the food to Bai Qiyun.

Seeing the food in front of her, Amber hesitated to speak.

If she remembered correctly, Xiao Keli obviously hated eating crabs, but she didn't expect that the little guy even specially ordered a dish she didn't like for Bai Qiyun. It was really hard for her.

The crabs that were torn into pieces were wrapped in batter, and the leaves and lotus hearts on one side were taken out as side dishes.

Judging from the appearance, the store uses Dudulian, a plant that grows by the water and is cleaned by the power of water elements, to remove the fishy smell of seafood.

And from the smell, when Bai Qiyun smelled it, there was really not much fishy smell unique to seafood. I have to say that the store suppressed it very well.

Taking out the tableware sent by Miss Sarah, Bai Qiyun scooped a spoonful of crab meat soup and gently put it into his mouth.

The fragrance of the plants mixed with the freshness of the crab flows into the mouth, and the batter flowing down the throat adds a little satisfaction to the dish. After swallowing the food completely, you can still feel a little bit of it in your mouth.

The freshness and sweetness of the silk are indeed somewhat magical.

Liyue’s cuisine is divided into Liyue cuisine and Yuecai. The former focuses on ‘mountain delicacies’, while the latter favors ‘seafood’. If a seafood soup like this is in Liyue cuisine, it should be classified as Yuecai.

In Liyue Port, the most famous Yuecai restaurant is naturally the well-known ‘Xinyue Xuan’. That restaurant is always crowded with customers all year round. It is definitely well-known in Liyue.

It's just about the taste... Anyway, the old man never said how good those two restaurants were.

And when he was young, when he was still ignorant, he heard outsiders preaching how high-end Yuexuan and Liulicing were, so he believed them, and later he kept clamoring to go there to eat.

The result was another meal of fried pork with bamboo shoots on his butt.

Anyway, he didn't go there, and to this day he hasn't been able to go there and have a meal.

Of course, this does not mean that only high-ranking officials and aristocrats can eat from the two companies. In fact, it is quite the opposite. No matter how bad the weather is, these two companies provide takeout and takeout only when they are open, no matter how bad the weather is.

Need to book in advance.

So from this perspective, these two families are not as unfriendly to the people as imagined.

It may just be due to factional disputes that Liuliting, who is good at mountain delicacies, and Tingyue Xuan, who is good at seafood, are becoming more and more opposed to each other. Even the stores are opened opposite each other. Naturally, the ingredients of the other party are reduced in the dishes, causing trouble.

Those who make "mountain delicacies" now only make mountain delicacies, and those who make "seafood" only see seafood.

Does this count as adhering to tradition or being complacent?

Well, anyway, Mr. Zhongli, who often comes to the restaurant, often comments, "When Xiangling is here, the first choice for dining is not Liulicing and Xinyuexuan, but Wanmintang." This can be seen from his attitude.

Tsk, I mentioned that guy’s name again, which makes me uncomfortable.

Because he unconsciously thought of a certain girl, Bai Qiyun's eyes suddenly became like dead fish eyes.

He took a spoon and took a spoonful of the food into his mouth.

But having said that, when the old man has not yet transformed, Mr. Zhongli should add another sentence to his words, 'If Mr. Bai's house is open, he should go directly to Tingyuge without thinking.'

That is to say, the old man transformed ten years ago, otherwise the Wanmin Tang that has emerged in recent years will definitely not be their opponent.

That was ten years ago...

Bai Qiyun paused, and the food wrapped on the spoon fell down the spoon and slipped into his mouth.

A strong aroma dragged him back from his distant thoughts.

Hmm? This taste is...

In order to avoid errors in his judgment, Bai Qiyun took another sip of the soup in the basin in front of him.

Suddenly, the same aroma as before came up from his throat again.

"Huh, this is indeed Mondstadt's famous dish."

Bai Qiyun, who noticed the mystery of this dish, couldn't help but praise the chef's approach.

The main ingredients of this 'Dudu Lotus Seafood Soup' are quite simple, only crab, Dudu Lotus and white noodles, but it is these three simple ingredients that reflect the chef's exquisite conception of this dish.

Most of the soup is actually a sticky mess in your mouth, and there is no way to distinguish the ingredients. However, this dish only uses three ingredients to create a layered texture.

First of all, the dough is the base. As the basis of the soup, this dish does not completely use cooked batter. Instead, dough flakes are added to it, so that when chewing, the teeth can feel different feedback.

Similarly, the Dudu Lotus is also divided into two halves. One half is the Dudu Lotus that has been torn into long strips of leaves, usually the center of the lotus seeds. The long strips of vegetables are mixed with the noodles and batter. The two ingredients can be mixed together.

Three different tastes collide in your mouth.

This is an ingenious idea in the dishes. As for the taste, this dish has obviously been well thought out.

Generally speaking, the more types of raw materials involved in a dish, the harder it is to harmonize the taste. This dish only uses three raw materials, one of which is flour, so the difficulty of adjusting the taste is much reduced.

The use of Dudulian, which absorbs the power of water elements, to remove the fishy smell of crabs coincides with the concept of elemental cuisine that Bai Qiyun has always adhered to.

"Famous dish? Ah, you're talking about this."

In Amber's opinion, this is a dish that everyone often orders.

Since Mondstadt is close to the three water-rich areas of Fruit Wine Lake, Xingluo Lake and Qingquan Town, some seafood is not that expensive, so this dish has become a home-cooked dish that people can taste every day.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In addition to using iron spoons for the tableware due to cost issues, Bai Qiyun cannot find any faults with this dish.

The spoon hit the bottom of the basin, stirring the mixed batter and dough, and bursts of aroma emanated from it.

"Knew it."

Smelling this smell, Bai Qiyun was even more sure of what he had just thought.

In fact, in addition to the things mentioned above, this dish also has one of the most hidden details.

That is, milk should be added to the dough in this dish. It is even said that the dough may be fermented with milk.

The batter is the most ordinary kind, so when you swallow them together, you can clearly feel the difference in taste between the two.

It is both separation and integration.

I have to admire it.

After tasting this, Bai Qiyun raised his head and looked at Keli.

The dishes recommended by this little guy are indeed good. He, as a temporary brother, cannot eat alone.

Then he took Keli's bowl and spooned a little more seafood soup into Keli's bowl with a bitter expression on her face.

"Come on, the kid needs to eat more."

Long years of living in Liyue Port have made Bai Qiyun develop the habit of taking care of children more.

Kelly put down the Mond grilled fish on her hand, took the bowl with great reluctance, and then put the seafood soup into her mouth one bite at a time.

It's like swallowing medicine.

"I want to eat too, I want to eat too!"

Amber, who felt that she had been ignored, also picked up a spoon. Instead of eating from a bowl like Xiao Keli, she reached directly into the basin in front of Bai Qiyun and took a spoonful.

"Hello..."

Bai Qiyun, who was blocked by Amber's standing body, could only step aside silently to give her room to move.

By the way, how can a scout knight who is always patrolling outside smell so good?

While Amber was sitting here, her arms and other things naturally came into contact with Bai Qiyun's body.

I don't know if it's because Bai Qiyun's nose is too good, or because the fragrance on Amber's body is really strong. In short, when she was close to Bai Qiyun, Bai Qiyun smelled a hint of the fragrance of a girl.

I didn’t expect Amber, a careless guy like you, to work hard in this area.

Bai Qiyun knew a little more about this girl who seemed to be a fellow villager.

"Eh? Is this so delicious?"

Amber, who had always regarded Deer Hunter as a canteen, took one bite of the food today and clearly felt that the taste was somewhat different from the previous ones. However, she did not have the same cooking experience as Bai Qiyun, so she could not tell what was different.

When Amber was enjoying the seafood soup, Keli finally ate all the soup in her bowl. Although she hated crabs, she hated waste even more.

She had already planned that if Bai Qiyun didn't eat, she would have to eat by herself. Although it was a bit hard to accept, there was nothing she could do about it so that she could go out of the city to play more these days.
