Chapter 19 Hard dishes
One of the young men in the massacre at Huaiyin was insulting and said: "If you grow up and are good at carrying swords, you will be timid in your heart."
The people were insulted and said: "If you believe that you can die, you can stab me; if you can't die, you can come out from under my hakama."
So I believe you will see it, and I will pull it out from under your hakama and lay it down.

……………………
After Nobunaga heard this young man's experience, he didn't know how to persuade him.
Everyone in the world says: "A man who can endure the humiliation of his crotch is a man who can bend and stretch."
This is a manifestation of great wisdom and courage.
Take a look at the drinking conversation between Nobunaga and this boy.
The boy's behavior is more of self-destruction in a desperate situation.
…………
According to the mysterious diners matching mechanism of "Yangquan Restaurant".
Every diner is in a different parallel universe.
The ultimate success or failure is still unclear.
The hero succeeds, the bear fails.
This diode-style subjective argument of "judge heroes based on their success or failure" is not valid in the multiverse world.
…………
On my third glass of Sapporo real beer.
Nobunaga Yuba already basically knows the situation of the boy in his parallel universe.
He was impoverished, hungry and cold, living on the streets and ridiculed by others. The only Nanchang pavilion chief who was willing to give him food refused to help him anymore.
Although I have great ambitions in my heart, I don't see the slightest hope of success.
There is no possibility of becoming a "real man" at all, so how can one be "able to bend and stretch"?
If a person is hit too hard, he will become depressed.
If you have been depressed for too long...
No matter how strong a person is, he will become weak.
Courage must also disappear...
…………
The reason is that simple.
Sometimes, don't think about the problem too complicated. The truth is often very simple. The so-called truth that pretends to be complicated is often an illusion.
In short, shame is shame...
…………
According to the history mastered by Nobunagajiba in his previous life.
Throughout the life of this young man, it was not that he changed completely overnight. Instead, he had a relatively stable life trajectory of growth, troughs, and strength.
The core of his heart has always been that of a genius with great courage and extraordinary talent.
…………
However, the boy in this parallel world;
The plane of Nobunaga's previous life, the boy in the high school history textbook;
After Nobunaga's rebirth, he became a genius in the history of China in this world;
Will the boys from these three universes have the same fate?
Nobunaga's heart was uncertain.
……………………
Tons tons tons tons...
Nobunaga Hato was also feeling depressed now. He could only keep adding more drinks to this young man.
Sapporo beer has a refreshing taste and rich malty aroma.
The two used alcohol to escape reality, drinking glass after glass.
"I'll prepare a hard dish."
Nobunaga, who was a little drunk, remembered that the boy liked to eat meat. He got up and went to the open kitchen and took out the tenderloin from the refrigerator.
This kind of tenderloin must be chosen from the large tenderloin, which is also called big pork loin in Shenghai City of Dragon Kingdom.
…………
Nobunaga Hato cuts the tenderloin into thick slices, about 3mm thick.
Add a small amount of salt and cooking wine to the sliced meat, gently spread it evenly, and marinate for about 20 minutes.
Cut the carrots, green onions, and ginger into thin strips, mince the garlic, and set aside.
After the meat slices are fried, they need to be fried again. The re-frying time must be very short. Heat the oil over high heat first, and then add all the meat slices at once, about 20 seconds.
Take it out and place it on absorbent paper to absorb excess grease.
Compared to ketchup, Nobunaga prefers to make his own sauce.
Five teaspoons of sugar, the same amount of white vinegar, ten drops of soy sauce, a small amount of salt, stir evenly...
……………………
"Ding! The fledgling Guobaorou"
The dish of Guobao Pork has undergone large-scale improvements, schools, and innovations in more than 50 ways over the past dynasties.
Is the cooking method authentic? Are the onions, ginger, and garlic thin enough? Is the starch paste hung well? Put the meat first or the juice first, and whether to put tomato sauce or not...
It is difficult to say what is right and wrong, but all Chinese cooks have noticed it.
It is this classic dish that has determined the rise and fall of many generations of Northeastern restaurants, one ups and downs, so it has been said since ancient times that they want to dominate the Northeast.
…………
This dish has reached the level of preparation by ordinary Northeast families.
People in Northeast China love Guobao Pork as much as sauerkraut.
In Northeast China, the standard of a restaurant is often judged by whether its Guobao Pork is delicious.
This dish has become the face of every Northeastern restaurant.
For travelers in a foreign land, Guobao Pork seems to be a nostalgia for home, and they must eat it every time they go home.
…………
"Eat, why are you standing there in a daze?"
Nobunaga brought the dishes to the table. The young man looked at the big meat dish, stared hard at the large pieces of pot meat, and swallowed his saliva.
"Ding! The effect is great!"
Um?!
The highest matching degree of triggering system...
Sure enough, this guy likes eating meat very much.
