Views:

"The dishes cooked by Chef Yuan are indeed worthy of high expectations." Representative Li has never doubted Yuan Zhou's ability.

Even though he has not tasted the food in the store, it does not affect his judgment. Even the light Huaiyang cuisine or Cantonese cuisine are so delicious and delicious, not to mention the heavier Hunan cuisine and Sichuan cuisine.

Xiao Wu nodded in agreement and didn't say much else. Instead, he quietly confirmed the afternoon's itinerary with Representative Li.

A post-it note is filled with things that Representative Li has to do in the afternoon. A quick glance shows that the last item has been scheduled until 9pm when he goes back to rest. This is considered a relatively relaxed time, and it was arranged in the morning. One thing.

"Dong dong dong"

Representative Li knocked on the bar with his fingers, thought for a while and said, "According to this schedule, today's work must be completed today."

"I can definitely finish it, Representative." Xiao Wu nodded to show that he understood.

Apparently he is used to Representative Li's hard-working way of working, so it's not surprising at all.

After getting down to business, Xiao Wu suddenly remembered the dish that Representative Li just ordered. Just when he was about to ask what the specialty was, he was attracted by the smell.

If you want to say it smells good, it is indeed very fragrant. It has a strange and indescribable smell. But if you want to say it smells, it does smell a little bit bad. Anyway, Xiao Wu has never smelled this smell in more than 30 years.

When I first smelled it, I wasn't used to it, but it was the type that got better and better the more I smelled it. I sniffed hard, and Xiao Wu couldn't help but turn his head and stare at the plate in Su Ruoyan's hand who was bringing the food.

It was golden with a hint of green on it, and looked very comfortable. Xiao Wu stretched his neck to get a closer look. As Su Ruoyan got closer, the fragrance became stronger.

Although Representative Li did not behave as well as Xiao Wu, he was not much different. He closed his eyes slightly and smelled the familiar smell, as if he had returned to his childhood.

To be honest, when Representative Li was a child, he couldn't even eat eggs at will. Chickens at that time were a precious commodity in ordinary people's homes. Most of them were used to pay school fees, and they were also known as the "Chicken Butt Bank".

There are also many people who exchange eggs for oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, etc. Most of the time they can eat an egg on their birthday every year. If there is a plate of scrambled eggs with folded ears, it is definitely when guests come to the family.

What impressed Representative Li the most was that when he was a child, his family’s fields needed cattle for plowing. He asked for help and fried a plate of golden scrambled eggs. Representative Li, who was only two or three years old at the time, was so happy that he went crazy. The delicious taste just stayed deep in my memory.

Now smelling the familiar smell, Representative Li seems to have returned to the happy moment when he ate fried eggs with folded ears for the first time as a child.

"It's this familiar taste, slightly bitter, like the taste of Chinese medicine, but it's so delicious."

Representative Li quickly picked up a piece of scrambled egg and put it into his mouth, chewing it slowly. The soft and tender egg on the outside was very tender and smooth. When you bite it, there seems to be juice oozing out, but when you get inside, it is cut. The finely chopped root of the folded ears, because it is chopped, the taste becomes more intense, and it is paired with the extremely tender eggs.

The strong fragrance goes straight to the back of my mind, not to mention quite refreshing. It feels like standing in a spring field, hope bursting out, and an indescribable sense of comfort.

Scrambled eggs with Zheergen are stir-fried with Zheergen, a special wild vegetable from Sichuan Province. Of course, Zheergen is just the name of the people in Sichuan Province. Its scientific name is Houttuynia cordata. As a traditional Chinese medicinal material, although the taste is not that strong when it is freshly prepared. , but most people can't accept it. Just like durian, not everyone likes it, so does Zheergen.

But Representative Li thought it was delicious, especially when it perfectly matched the mellow flavor deep in his memory. He thought it was particularly delicious.

Moreover, this plate of scrambled eggs with folded ears is really good-looking. Each egg piece is almost the same size, as big as a thumb, and is wrapped with minced folded roots. Some of them have a little bit of green, which looks very good. nice.

Seeing that he was about to finish eating, Xiao Wu picked up his chopsticks and put them down again. He really wanted to eat, but he really didn't dare. It would be terrible if he was wearing small shoes in the future. Even if he was not wearing small shoes, he would steal the leader's food or something. This is something that requires a lot of courage to do, but Xiao Wu doesn't have the courage anyway.

That's what he was thinking, but his hands were not in control, so every time the chopsticks were about to touch the plate, he was forced back by reason, and then he was bewitched by the fragrance, and stretched out again, over and over again, without feeling tired.

It wasn't until there were only four or five pieces of scrambled eggs left on the plate that Representative Li finally came back from his memories and saw Xiao Wu's little move.

Looking at the five pieces of scrambled eggs left, he stretched out his hand and put two pieces on his chopsticks, one after the other like a skewer of candied haws. Then he looked at the remaining three pieces on the plate and said: "Xiao Wu, you're welcome. You also want to try the specialties of our Sichuan province. This is something you can't get in other places. Try it."

As he said that, he quickly put the two pieces of scrambled eggs on the chopsticks into his mouth, reached out to the plate again and picked them up, but this time he only picked up one piece, "Two pieces should be enough for Xiao Wu to taste it. I don't like it." The words will not be wasted.”

It is true that many people cannot accept the strange taste of Zheergen. Representative Li is right to think so. He feels that he must be a generous leader who is willing to share food with his subordinates.

When Xiao Wu heard Representative Li's heavenly voice, he focused on a piece of scrambled eggs and picked it up with his chopsticks. Then he put it into his mouth at lightning speed and picked up the last piece. On the chopsticks, now I can eat with peace of mind.

When I took a bite, I was shocked by the tenderness of the egg. Then I bit into the fine root of the ear. When I took a bite, the juice of the plant overflowed, and then the strange aroma immediately filled the entire mouth. Xiao Wu was not used to it at first. , but the teeth are used again, the egg and the ear root collide with each other, the crispy and tender complement each other, the egg flavor and the strange fragrance are mixed, and it is a bit addictive as you eat.

I can’t describe how I feel. I just ate one piece and wanted to eat the second piece. The third piece was very exciting, but unfortunately there was only one piece left. After stuffing it into my mouth, I looked at it and it was white and clean, as if it had not been filled with anything. I was sure there was no need to lick the plate, so I could only rest my thoughts.

When Representative Li and Xiao Wu were lamenting that the food was gone, a spicy smell swept over their senses.

If the smell of scrambled eggs with broken ears just now made people want to stop, then the spicy and fragrant smell now makes people drool.

This is definitely a physiological reaction to the impact of spiciness. This is the dried Youxian incense ordered by Xiao Wu.

As a specialty bean product of You County, Hunan Province, as Hunan cuisine becomes more and more widely known, its popularity is also gradually increasing.

The bright colors of red, green, yellow, and yellow make people feel warm at first sight. This is probably because the Youxian dried incense has been marinated. The aroma after the spiciness is very meaningful and long, with the unique fragrance of marinade.
