Chapter 631

"Then let's walk around the street for a while, just in time to see what we're going to eat in the afternoon."

Xia Liang's proposal was approved by Lu Ruian, and then the two of them walked outside and wandered on the street.

Lu Ruian was like a curious baby, full of curiosity about the delicacies on the street.

At this time, Xia Liang would regard Lu Ruian as his eldest son and patiently explain these delicacies to him.

"This is called Guokui, also known as dry film and Guokui steamed bun. It looks like a pot lid, with thin and medium-thick sides. There are spoke-like patterns on the surface. It is hard and tough, crispy and delicious. It is a good gift for relatives and friends."

"This is called Liangpi. It appeared as early as the Qin Dynasty. It has a smooth taste and can be eaten in various ways. Qinzhen Liangpi is the most famous one, with a history of more than 2,000 years."

"In addition, there is Maotai Liangpi. A tablespoon of sesame paste is added to the Liangpi to make the Liangpi taste richer and mellower."

"Compared to the above two types, Hanzhong rice noodle made from rice milk is rare in other places. The texture of rice noodle is softer and waxier than that of dough, and it can be made hot. Some stores even combine cold noodle and rice noodle. , you can have two tastes at one time.”

"This is Rose Mirror Cake, a childhood memory of locals in Chang'an. It uses glutinous rice flour as the main ingredient. Take out a palm-sized white cake from a small steamer, apply sauce, then wrap it with black sesame seeds, crushed peanuts, etc., and insert two sticks. Bamboo sticks can be eaten by biting.”

"The sauces for mirror cakes come in a variety of flavors, including blueberry, hawthorn, chocolate, etc. Among them, rose flavor is the most signature and most popular."

"..."

Listening to Xia Liang's continuous explanation, Lu Ruian's eyes were filled with light as he looked at these delicacies.

If he couldn't eat any more, he would definitely buy them all to taste. Now he wished he had more stomachs so that he could hold all the delicacies.

The two wandered around for a while, and soon it was noon. Although Lu Ruian still felt a little full, he still insisted on continuing to eat.

"Then let me take you to eat the steamed buns, which is known as the best bowl in the world."

Xia Liang thought for a while and said, if you don’t try mutton steamed buns when you come to Chang’an, your visit will be in vain.

Soon Xia Liang took Lu Ruian to the entrance of a store. After queuing for a while, he finally entered the store.

"Mr. Xia Liang, is this the steamed bun you are talking about? Why is it different from other people's?"

When the clerk brought the steamed buns, Lu Ruian was confused because there were only two bowls and two steamed buns in front of them.

As for the others, I didn't see them at all.

On the contrary, the guest at the table next to them had a bowl of mutton vermicelli sprinkled with chopped green onion and coriander. The aroma alone made Lu Ruian salivate.

"Mr. Lu Ruian, this cake is also called fufu bun. Guests need to break the buns into the size of soybeans. After breaking them, they will be given to the chef for soup or water siege, which means more soup and less soup."

Xia Liang explained with a smile while already starting to break the buns on hand.

Lu Ruian looked around and found that there were indeed people breaking buns like Xia Liang.

"Mr. Xia Liang, why do you Longguo people have so much trouble eating? Can't the store just break the buns in advance?"

Lu Ruian frowned. The scent of the mutton and vermicelli soup from the next table kept tempting him, almost making him cry.

"Mr. Lu Ruian, you don't understand this. We in the Dragon Kingdom have always said that we can make enough food and clothing by ourselves. This is the reason for making buns."

"And this is also a kind of fun for local people. Chang'an people have been making good steamed buns since they were young. Waiting may be boring, but when you finally enjoy it, you will have a sense of accomplishment."

"If you can't bear a little loneliness, how can you taste good food?"

Xia Liang explained carefully, after all, he is his eldest son, so he should be used to it.

Lu Ruian could only accept it helplessly, and at the same time began to break the buns like Xia Liang, but the buns were different sizes and looked a bit nondescript.

"Forget it, you're still dad... let me break it off for you."

Xia Liang said as he took the other person's piece over and broke it into pieces like this. It would definitely be returned and broken again.

After a while, Xia Liang finally finished breaking them all, and then sent them to the window for the chef to process.

Soon, the waiter brought the mutton steamed buns to the two of them.

"Mr. Xia Liang, I'll start first."

After smelling the aroma, Lurian couldn't wait to taste it.

Take a sip of the hot soup first. The soup is very delicious and the mutton meat is crispy.

The steamed bun, which was originally a bit hard, became soft after being soaked in the soup. After absorbing the soup, it was very tasty. Eat it with the vermicelli, and the texture is even more unique.

"Oh my gosh, this is so delicious."

Lurian exclaimed. He felt that after being a gourmet for so many years, nothing he had eaten could compare to what he tasted today.

"Mr. Lu Ruian, when eating the mutton steamed buns, don't stir it. Eat it along the edge of the bowl, so as to ensure a consistent taste."

"When you feel tired after drinking soup, you can eat a piece of sugar garlic to refresh your mouth."

Hearing Xia Liang's words, Lu Ruian nodded and started tasting according to Xia Liang's instructions.

Xia Liang was not idle either. It was already noon. After explaining to the other party for so long, he was already a little hungry.

Mutton steamed buns are a combination of vegetables, staple food and soup in one bowl, making you feel full after eating.

"Mr. Xia Liang, I feel like I don't even need to eat anymore today. I'm so full."

After a while, Lu Ruian leaned back in his chair and said comfortably that he had finished the bowl of mutton soup steamed bun, not even a mouthful of soup was left.

"So, Mr. Lu Ruian, do you plan to continue shopping, or go back to the hotel to rest first?"

Xia Liang asked with a smile.

"Let's go back to the hotel first. I don't want to move at all now."

Xia Liang nodded, paid the bill, and drove Lu Ruian back to the hotel.

"Mr. Lu Ruian, take a rest first. If you have rested well, you can call me again. I will take you to eat other delicacies then."

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Xia Liang."

After that, the two returned to their rooms.

Sitting in the chair, Lu Ruian still felt a little full, but he was thinking about things in his mind.

This Longguo seems to be a little different from what he knew before.

Before coming to Longguo, Lu Ruian learned about Longguo from the media in his own country.

Basically, these media have never said good things about Longguo, and all of them are belittling Longguo.

Before today, Lu Ruian also believed these media very much, thinking that Longguo was just as the media said, extremely poor and full of riots.

But his experience this morning made him begin to doubt what these media said before.

Longguo was full of riots?
