Chapter 111 Magical taste

"What does it taste like?"

Wu Lei looked at him eagerly.

Zhao Jinmai kept glancing into the soup basin and swallowed repeatedly.

Sui then took another sip of the soup and explained while chewing: "The main ingredient is fungus shreds. It is difficult to pursue the taste of such thin fungus shreds.

Just like kelp, when it is cooked in a hot pot, it can maintain a crispy texture at first, but as it cooks for a long time, the texture changes.

The thinner and finer the ingredients, the easier they are to cook, but they are also easier to overcook.

I originally thought that the shredded fungus in this bowl of soup had also been boiled soft and rotten.

Because it is too thin, it may become soft after being cooked for a while.

But the shredded fungus in this bowl of soup retains its crisp texture.

But this crispness is not the crispness of the fungus itself, but a texture between soft and crispy.

Tsk! How to say it?"

Sui then pondered, looking for words that could accurately describe the taste.

"Have you ever eaten popsicles? There should be the old popsicles sold, right?"

He tried to explain: "After buying the popsicles, wait for them to melt for a while, then it will be easier to bite them.

When you bite this old popsicle, its ice will break into thin ice needles.

The texture of ice needles is also crispy, but when you bite it, it melts and is gone.

Yes! That’s right, that’s the taste!”

Listening to Sui Bian's description, everyone at the scene was stunned, and the audience in the live broadcast room was filled with question marks.

"Ah? Are you serious?"

"real or fake?"

"Do you want to listen to what you are saying?"

"No, this is a bit too exaggerated, isn't it? Fungus silk and old popsicle, are these two the same thing?"

"Chef Sui, did you drink poisonous mushroom soup and hallucinate?"

Zheng Jun on the side couldn't help but laugh and asked: "No, you are exaggerating, aren't you? Fungus is a mushroom, so there is no way it can be transformed, right?"

Sui then spread his hands and said, "The taste is so amazing. What can I do? If you don't believe me, try it for yourself."

"That's what I'm waiting for!"

Wu Lei had already pulled out a spoon and rushed over excitedly.

"Eh? Don't worry, I'll serve it for you, don't burn it."

Sui then took the spoon and filled a bowl for Wu Lei.

"And I."

Zhao Jinmai also followed over with a bowl in hand, holding Liu Yifei's arm with one arm.

Zheng Jun also silently took a bowl, like a student eating in the cafeteria, and lined up behind them.

Looking at the black fungus silk soup in the bowl, Wu Lei lowered his head and smelled it, and then exclaimed: "It smells so good! This is the most fragrant of the several soups!"

He is not very interested in the white shredded tofu soup because he already knows how good the quality of tofu is.

He grinds these tofu himself, and he has tasted every tofu dish.

But for this shredded fungus soup, he couldn't associate its texture with popsicles.

He scooped up a spoonful of it, blew on it a few times to cool down the temperature, and then put it in his mouth.

The thickened soup slid smoothly into his mouth, and the strong aroma in his mouth immediately made Wu Lei couldn't help but hum.

He raised his tongue and suddenly raised his eyebrows.

He felt the slender yet resilient filaments falling on his tongue, stimulating his taste buds as if dancing.

The teeth fell down, and those small filaments were easily broken by the closed teeth.

The toughness he felt on his tongue was not as strong as he imagined, and it did not form much effective barrier in front of the hard teeth.

They just made their presence felt by his teeth, and then they were bitten into pieces.

That trace of toughness is just the last bit of muscle and bone remaining in the core of the filament, while the outer layer has been cooked to a gelatinous state, and it melts into the soup with a sip of your tongue.

"this……"

Wu Lei was amazed by the wonderful taste: "It's really like the ice needles when the popsicle is about to melt! Wow! It's so magical!"

He was not the only one who was shocked. Liu Yifei and others who tasted the soup right after him were also shocked by the taste of the fungus silk.

"Wow! Really!"

Zhao Jinmai looked at the soup in the bowl in surprise, somewhat unbelievable.

Liu Yifei tasted it carefully and exclaimed: "It doesn't taste like popsicles, but it really tastes like it!"

"real or fake?"

Zheng Jun had just put it into the bowl and looked at them all in amazement, a little doubtful: "Are you playing me?"

"Brother, you'll know after you try it."

Wu Lei said and stuffed another spoonful into his mouth.

Hearing this, Zheng Jun scooped up a spoonful, blew on it, and put it into his mouth.

The next moment, he was stunned, looked at Li Yi and asked: "How did you do this?"

Li Yi smiled and said two words: "Huohou."

"Yes, that's right, it's the heat."

Sui nodded in agreement, and then praised: "But the heat is controlled so well, just right, it's absolutely amazing.

Such thin fungus silk will be cooked if it is boiled a little, and it will be rotten if it is boiled again.

It's very difficult to get it to the point where it's just about cooked, with just a little bit of bones left.

What’s that word called? Yes, it’s so wonderful! It’s really awesome!”

Sui Bian did not hesitate to praise him at all. As a top chef, his top skills would undoubtedly have a much greater impact on him.

For an ordinary person, after drinking this bowl of soup, they may only be able to say, "Holy shit, it tastes good."

But he could taste the deliciousness of this bowl of soup, the most subtle and miraculous skills, and how much hard work it would take to practice such powerful skills.

It's like a diving champion performing a difficult move. Ordinary people will only think it's awesome, but they don't know how awesome it is.

Only his teammates can understand that he has practiced more than ten thousand times for this jump.

For a moment, Sui Bian was slightly moved.

This cannot be regarded as sympathy, but his sincere admiration for a top craftsman.

But after admiring him, Sui Bian became very curious.

This Tai Chi blessing and longevity soup is not expensive on the menu of the tofu banquet. It can only be regarded as an appetizer soup.

Among the entire tofu feast menu, the most expensive dish is a dish called "Auspicious Happiness".

The price of this dish is as high as 9,999 yuan, and it is limited to one serving per day.

Li Yi has no limit on Kung Fu dishes such as Tai Chi Fu Shou Soup, but he has limited limits on this [Auspicious Fortune] dish.

What's the secret to this dish? What makes Li Yi so serious about it?

Li Yi noticed the way Sui looked at him, and suddenly a bad premonition came into his heart.

"What do you want to do?"

Li Yi looked at him and reminded: "You have already drank the soup, it's time to rate it, don't think about it wrong!"

Sui looked at him and shook his head: "Don't worry, the program team didn't stipulate that I can only order one dish?

I’ve finally come here and you’re not allowed to eat enough? What’s the point of going back with a full stomach of soup?”

Li Yi had already vaguely guessed something.

Sure enough, Sui then asked: "This [lucky blessing]..."

In the middle of his words, he was interrupted by Li Yi: "This is not interesting, I recommend one to you, [Fu Ru Donghai].

This dish mainly consists of dry fried tofu balls, with nine kinds of side dishes and three kinds of extremely fresh mushrooms added to it, which are fried together into tofu balls.

Emperor Qianlong personally gave this dish a nickname, called Longan Golden Ball. What do you think? Does it sound good?

I will use tofu to carve a dragon and put it on the plate for you, it will definitely be a good name!

If you feel you are not full, how about I cook you a bowl of fried rice to make you feel comfortable and go back full?"

Sui then looked at him with a smile, waited for him to finish, then smiled and said: "No, I will just order the most expensive [Auspicious Blessing]."

Li Yi: "Damn!"
