Chapter 495 On the Importance of Birthdays

"Huh? Try this taste, Chu Xiao." Zhou Shijie took the first bite and immediately turned to Chu Xiao and said.

"Okay." Chu Xiao nodded.

Then he calmly took a sip of the water provided in the welcome set, then picked up the fish fillets and started eating.

"It seems to be another dish that is difficult to surpass." Li Minghui sighed in his heart, but his hands were not slow and he also picked up a piece and prepared to eat it.

"Just pick up a piece and try it." Liu Tong muttered quietly, and then prepared to pick up the fish and eat it.

Zhou Shijie, who was the first to taste it, had already squinted his eyes and started moving towards the next piece of fish.

At this time, Chu Xiao's fish meat was just in his mouth.

Speaking of which, the method of making fish is really simple. It just involves cutting the fish fillets into butterfly shapes, then coating them in egg liquid and frying them. Finally, pick them up and put them aside to control the oil. The rest is to boil the syrup over low heat. Finally add the fish and stir fry.

The whole dish is just a sentence.

As soon as the "Kara" fish entered his mouth, Chu Xiao took a light bite, and the crispy outer shell wrapped in sweet sugary juice cracked slightly, revealing the fresh and tender fish inside.

"Hiss, it's quite hot." Chu Xiao said something vaguely.

After the shell cracked, the soup that flowed out along with the fish meat was poured on the tongue. Because it was a bit hot, Chu Xiao retracted his tongue slightly. Now the tip of his tongue could clearly feel a burst of sweetness.

In fact, everyone’s tongue taste ability is similar. In a paper once published by Harvard psychology professor Edwin G. Pauling, he said,

Each part of the tongue can detect different flavors, but this was later disproven by Virginia Collins.

In fact, there is only a difference in the sensitivity of the tongue to taste, and this difference is very small, but as one of the top chefs, Chu Xiao's tongue is undoubtedly particularly sensitive.

The fresh and sweet soup wrapped in the crispy shell made Chu Xiao feel excited, as if a nimble fish was swimming by.

"Crack, click, click." Chu Xiao bit the shell twice, and the tender fish meat inside suddenly met the crispy shell. On one side was the amazingly tender fish meat, on the other side was the crispy and delicious fish meat, and in the middle was the delicious fish soup. Juice directly dominates these two tastes.

It was like a dance party in the mouth. Everyone was the protagonist, but they were led in an orderly manner. Waves of extreme taste enjoyment exploded in Chu Xiao's mouth, and then flowed into his stomach.

"I never thought this fish could do this." Chu Xiao sighed, and then quickly picked up a piece of fish.

"No, it's not sweet at all, and it's very chewy. I specially prepared this for the old man. You juniors should eat less." Zhou Shijie said honestly and politely.

"You are wrong. The fish meat is fresh and sweet, maintaining the most perfect tender taste. The shell is crispy but very easy to chew. It has a beautiful butterfly shape and interesting patterns. It is so gorgeous and naturally suitable for young people like us." Chu Xiao He said without giving in.

"Teacher, your third high school diploma is no small matter." Li Minghui swallowed a mouthful of fish and said with a serious face.

Of course, it would be more convincing if the hand movements were slower.

"Yes, yes, my wife told me not to eat anything too sweet. Besides, you said the same thing about the previous dishes." Liu Tong, who had agreed to only eat one piece, had forgotten about it a long time ago and kept putting fish meat in his mouth. Rise.

"You guys, you are so shameless when you compete with the old man for food." Zhou Shijie said angrily, but his hands were still moving, and he quickly took away Li Minghui's fish.

That movement was comparable to the old men and women who strode swiftly in front of the supermarket every morning to grab vegetables on sale. It was extremely steady, accurate and ruthless.

"As expected of the master's favorite, he can make such a simple fish so sweet but not greasy, and perfectly bring out the deliciousness of the fish." Li Minghui put down his chopsticks with satisfaction and sighed secretly in his heart.

"How come the ordinary fish we promised is so delicious? I can't refuse it even if I don't want to eat the sweet fish." Liu Tong couldn't help but sigh.

Liu and Tong were convinced that there was such a master as Yuan Zhou in this small shop.

As for Chu Xiao, he took out his little notebook again and wrote it down with a swipe.

Shredded fish: The simple and lively method, with superb skills, perfectly brings out the deliciousness of the fish and blends it with the appropriate sweetness.

Producer: Yuan Zhou.

There is only one dish per person in Chu Xiao's gourmet book, and this is Yuan Zhou's second dish.

The two producers Yuan Zhou standing side by side are very conspicuous.

"I think you just need to write your name, otherwise you won't be able to pretend." Zhou Shijie glanced at it and said with a smile.

"It's not time yet." Chu Xiao closed the notebook and said seriously.

"Whatever you want." President Zhou didn't say much.

The four people eating here were so happy that Wu Hai, who had just come in, couldn't sit still.

"Zhou Jia, I also want a whole fish feast." Wu Hai said proudly.

"Is today an important day for you?" Zhou Jia asked without recording it.

"Why are you asking this?" Wu Hai had a bad premonition in vain.

The specific description of the feeling is that it seems as if there are unscrupulous people trying to prevent him from eating delicious fish.

"Mr. Wu, look at the requirements for this dish." Zhou Jia smiled on her face, but felt helpless in her heart.

With such an expensive dish and so many requirements, he is just as capricious as his own boss.

"What does it mean to only order it when it's important?" Wu Hai didn't understand.

"The boss said it was probably an important treat, or a birthday or something." Zhou Jia replied with a smile.

"Birthday?" Wu Hai's heart skipped a beat, this was so fucking funny.

"Yes, so you want to change it?" Zhou Jia suggested.

Wu Hai is a painter. He is usually only invited to dinner by others. He rarely invites others to dinner. That is, when his sister or agent Zheng Jiawei comes to eat, he is not willing to bring others.

Therefore, treating this important guest is really not easy for Wu Hai. As for his birthday, Wu Hai couldn't help but get angry.

"Boss Yuan, what do you mean, are you making a new dish just to embarrass me?" Wu Hai pointed at the whole fish feast, stroking his mustache and asking with eyes wide open.

"Just follow the rules." Yuan Zhou said calmly.

"Rules? You can't eat two portions of anything else. I almost starved to death at first. I won't tell you. You almost starved to death when you closed the shop for a rest. But what do you mean by ordering it on your birthday now!" Wu Hai Zhuangzhuang Counting Yuan Zhou's crimes one by one, he asked heartbrokenly.

Yuan Zhou felt a little confused when he saw the excited Wu Hai, but he still said calmly, "This is the rule."

"You're so polite. I think you just know my birthday is on a leap month in a leap year, and you sincerely don't want me to eat this dish. It's terrible. How can you be such a boss Yuan? This is still meat, not a vegetarian dish." Wu Hai's tone was very sad, It makes those who hear it sad and those who listen to it shed tears.

But Yuanzhou couldn't help but roll with laughter in his heart.

"Birthdays in leap months in leap years mean that you won't have many birthdays in your life." Yuan Zhou said that he really wasn't smiling, really.

"Then have you celebrated your birthday?" Yuan Zhou asked seriously with a sullen face.
