Chapter 1222: Explaining while eating

The bowl used by Yuan Zhou to scoop the soup could be lifted up with only two fingers. It was very small and he drank it up in one gulp because there was only one mouthful of soup inside. After chewing for a while, Yuan Zhou swallowed the skin and liver of the pufferfish in the soup. “The globefish poison takes effect within half an hour to three hours.” Yuan Zhou said first. “Then what are you eating it for now?” Wu Hai asked with a pained expression while still stretching out his right hand that he didn’t manage to stop her just now. “It’s simple. If you’re poisoned, I’ll be poisoned as well. I’ll give you some psychological comfort.” Yuan Zhou said earnestly. “…” Wu Hai expressed that he was choked again and actually had nothing to say. “Little Yuan, we all believe in your cooking skills.” Zhou Shijie couldn’t help but ask. “I think you just want to eat it yourself.” Lee Yanyi indicated that he had seen through Yuan Zhou’s approach. “It’s fine. I’ll eat the pufferfish first. ” Yuan Zhou shook his head and said with a strong sense of righteousness. “That’s why I won’t be selling pufferfish for the time being. ” After Yuan Zhou said that, he continued. “Why?” Wu Hai looked at the empty small bowl with jealousy and asked subconsciously. “Because I can’t eat it.” Yuan Zhou said earnestly. “Hahahaha, little Yuan, you’re really …” Zhou Shijie understood it instantly and immediately smiled. “You’re more stubborn than me. ” Lee Yanyi muttered. “Can’t finish? what can’t finish? How can I not finish it?” On the other hand, Wu Hai immediately retorted excitedly when he heard that Yuan Zhou couldn’t finish it. He didn’t understand what Yuan Zhou was talking about at all. “If the customer orders twenty or thirty servings during lunchtime, I definitely won’t be able to finish them.” Yuan Zhou calculated the time in his heart and explained earnestly. “Don’t worry, I’m here. ” Wu Hai immediately raised his head and looked at Yuan Zhou, recommending himself with a firm expression. “No need,” Yuan Zhou shook his head and refused. “Why?” Wu Hai immediately asked. “The meaning is different.” Yuan Zhou said. “…” Wu Hai choked again and lay down listlessly without saying anything. Of course, his eyes were still fixed on the empty bowl that Yuan Zhou had just put down. “Let’s get back to the main topic. Now, I’ll talk about the taste and texture of this puffer fish bone soup. ” Yuan Zhou said when he found everyone had quieted down. As soon as he said this, he was immediately glared at by the others. “It’s fine that you ate it first, but now you want to show off the taste of it?” However, Yuan Zhou obviously didn’t understand the meaning of the profound look. He even thought that they were waiting to hear it seriously and thus said slowly. “This pufferfish bone isn’t suitable for long-term cooking, but when I drank it, it had just been cooked for twelve minutes, seven minutes earlier than the scheduled time to turn off the fire, so the soup’s taste is a little bland.” Yuan Zhou said. “However, the fresh and delicious taste is still integrated into it. I used Cold Spring water to make soup. The mineral-rich water makes the water taste sweet, but the texture is smooth. It’s very good for fish soup.” “Because the boiled pufferfish liver was added, the delicious taste has a hint of burnt smell.” “When I tasted it, I also added a small piece of liver and fish skin. The texture of these two things is soft and sticky like cotton, and when chewed, there is a hint of gummy texture. The taste is excellent.” “Of course, when the heat is enough, the taste should be able to reach a higher level.” “The liver of the pufferfish is the most poisonous part. After processing it, we’ll boil it with fresh soybean oil for a while before making the soup. This way, not only can the poison be removed, but it can also make the soup milky white and fresh, and it can also increase the layers and taste of the soup.” “After the pufferfish liver is cooked, the outer layer is charred and fragrant. The slight hint of the bean fragrance seeps into the inner layer of the pufferfish liver, making it even more delicious.” “When combined with the fish soup with the umami flavor, the taste is even more comprehensive and unified. The pufferfish is indeed worthy of being the most delicious fish.” Yuan Zhou finished his analysis of the taste of the puffer fish bone soup in one breath and concluded. “Boss Yuan, does your conscience not hurt?” Wu Hai glared at Yuan Zhou resentfully and revealed a look of despair. “Little Yuan, you’d better not do that next time. After all, it’s not easy to have a young chef with such a talent like you.” Zhou Shijie persuaded him earnestly. “I’ve finally found someone who’s more of a death-seeker than me. ” Lee Yanyi looked at Yuan Zhou from the front to the back, left to right, and appeared quite curious. “What’s wrong?” Yuan Zhou revealed an expression of puzzlement. “It’s fine. Just listen to your uncle Zhou. ” Zhou Shijie said. “Wait, was the small plate you put in the refrigerator also for yourself?” Wu Hai suddenly exclaimed and directly stood up. “Yes, I gave some to each fish.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head. “I want to die. I’ll die after I finish eating.” Wu Hai laid down helplessly and felt even more hopeless. “Ahem. Little Yuan, when can we eat our food?” Zhou Shijie asked directly. “Yes,” Lee Yanyi nodded his head and chimed in. “I’ve calculated the time. I’ll turn off the fire after I’m done eating. ” Yuan Zhou said. “Alright then, hurry up and eat.” Zhou Shijie waved his hand and urged. “Alright,” he said. Yuan Zhou nodded his head. After saying that, Yuan Zhou turned around and took out two small plates from the refrigerator. Due to the alternating temperature between hot and cold, a layer of white ice crystals could be seen on the plates. “This knife skill is not bad.” Zhou Shijie immediately praised when he saw the fish slices on the plate. In fact, it was more than ‘not bad’. It was simply superb. The bottom of the plate was covered with blue and white porcelain patterns, but the pattern at the bottom of the plate could be clearly seen through the fish. The ice crystals produced by the alternating heat and cold even gave the pattern at the bottom a hazy beauty, as if there was nothing on it. However, Yuan Zhou was not affected by the praise at all. He picked up the sharp-pointed chopsticks and directly started to eat. “Chi.” When Yuan Zhou picked up the fish, there was a slight sound of fish being peeled off. However, the fish was still intact. The transparent white fish was rolled up by Yuan Zhou and then fed into his mouth without dipping it in any seasoning. There were three pieces of fish on each plate, so there were six pieces in total. It was easy to eat. Three slices were not dipped in the soy sauce, while the other three were dipped in the mixed soy sauce. Yuan Zhou ate them unhurriedly, but he still finished them very quickly. The moment he finished eating, Yuan Zhou started to introduce,””The undipped fish is slightly cold in the mouth. When the temperature of the mouth touches the fish, the fish will melt in the mouth and the umami will spread. It is very suitable to make a fish stew.” “It doesn’t taste fishy at all, only the umami of the fish. This umami is different from the fish soup. The fish soup is slightly warm and nourishes the stomach, while the slightly cold and refreshing taste is suitable for this weather.” “As for the fish meat with sauce, it’s more delicious because the saltiness of the soy sauce invitiates a deeper level of freshness in the fish meat, and the taste is more rich.” “Of course, for those who like the original taste, I suggest that you don’t dip it in the sauce. For those who like the compound taste, you can dip it in the sauce.” Yuan Zhou concluded as usual. “Are you done? Can we eat now?” The moment Yuan Zhou finished his words, Wu Hai immediately raised his head and looked at Yuan Zhou. “Sure, please wait a moment.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then turned off the fire to scoop the soup. The first dish served by Yuan Zhou was the fish bone soup. There were three bowls for each of them and they were placed in front of each other. Looking at the steaming fish soup in front of them, the expressions of the three people became warm. “Could it be that my evaluation was not good?” Looking at the three people whose expressions became more enthusiastic, Yuan Zhou began to doubt his ability to express himself. ……
