Chapter 278 The old taste is hard to find
Through the open door of the inn, Wuhan University can see the street. The street outside the door is not wide. Although it is noon, only sparse people pass by. It seems that it is not the main street, but the back street. Unexpectedly, in the capital, even if it was not the center, the streets at night were so bright that I didn't sleep well last night.
The dishes are served quickly, which makes Wu Da very strange. He was even a little angry, because during the period of waiting for the meal, he was usually used to think about a problem, but as soon as today's problem was thought out, the food had been served.
Sure enough, all four dishes are fish. A plate of grilled fish, a plate of stewed fish, a plate of steamed fish, and finally, a plate of scallops that I don't know how to make. Although they are all fish, there is no fishy smell when served, but like a mellow meat dish with a fragrance.
Wu Da asked about the fragrance, and he couldn't help swallowing a big mouthful of water in his throat. Now he is a little regretful, because if he eats fish, there will always be a lot of fish bones, and he is so hungry that picking fish bones is a little restless. Rao complained slightly, and Wu Da couldn't help raising his chopsticks and eating.
Differ from what he imagined, there are not many thorns in the fish, and even the plate of steamed fish has almost no fish bones. Only large pieces of meat like garlic cloves are cracked with a gentle touch with chopsticks, emitting a mouth-watering aroma. At the beginning, Wu Da thought that there were fewer fish bones, but after eating a few bites of vegetables, he found that the fish did not even have the big bone in the middle. Only then did he know that the fish had already been removed by a skillful cook during the production process.
This method is really smart. Wu Da still knows how to cook. He knows that it can't be processed after it is cooked. It can only be done when the fish is raw or even alive. However, almost all the fish bones have been removed, but it retains the integrity of the meat. Each piece of fish is as intact as garlic. The knife work of this cook can only be described as a monster.
However, the cooks in the capital are all extraordinary. That was an example last night. There is a big difference in the selection of ingredients and production methods. It's better not to always put your past experience here.
Although it was winter, Wu Da also saw sweat on his forehead. The taste of grilled fish is very heavy, and the spicy taste on it is also very enjoyable in winter. If it is not for this quiet environment, Wu Da really wants to shout happily, and then put his legs on the stool to praise loudly. Only the loud noise can express his inner emotions at this moment. Wuhan University also has an expectation. Since free dishes can reach such a level, I really don't know what the cashier's lunch looks like in this inn.
Thinking about this, the clerk came up with the tray, walked to the side of Wuhan University, and put the small plate in the tray on the table. Sir, the pancake you want.
Before Wuda had time to look carefully, the aroma of the pancake had rushed into his nostrils. The fragrance of sesame was very familiar, but the pancake in front of him was much stronger than the aroma he made himself. Wu Da picked up the pancake, weighed it, then gently patted it with his finger and took another bite.
Wu Da can only be said to be rough in other aspects of cooking, but in making pancakes, it should be said that it has reached a considerable level. However, when he made a living by selling pancakes, most of the time, he would cut corners because of cost savings and did not give full play to his ability. Wuda knew the two pancakes in his hand today as soon as he tasted them. A large number of other materials were added. The fragrance in them has gone beyond the taste of the combination of white flour and sesame. With Wuda's knowledge, he can no longer say the names of these spices. Although these spices are pleasant in aromas, they can be eaten in Wuda. Come on, but there is some disappointment.
Wu Da has always felt that it is the greatest luxury to put pure white flour and make pancakes without adding any coarse grains. The satisfaction brought by fine grain is incomparable. These spices that should not have existed have disturbed the face that should have been the protagonist, making good pancakes become a grocery store. It's like a beautiful woman who was originally dignified and unpinked was smeared with all kinds of rouge, and finally turned into a big flowery face. The original beauty disappeared.
Wu Da really wanted to call the cook who made pancakes in front of him. He scolded him harshly and told them that he had used too much force on the ingredients and lost the essence of the craftsmanship handed down by his ancestors. But just like last night and today at noon, this is easy to say in Yanggu, and it becomes difficult to say in the capital. Is it the strange atmosphere in the capital? Wu Da doesn't know.
After eating a few more bites, the taste of mixed spices in the pancake became stronger and stronger, and the smell made Wuda a little dizzy. He wants the clerk to replace it, but he is afraid that this kind of pancake is the way to eat in the capital. If he puts it up, it will be too inappropriate. After all, when he first came here, everything is based on lies. It's better to be careful.
Wu Da tore the pancake from the side, then picked up the thickest fish with chopsticks, sandwiched it in the pancake, and diluted the smell of spices with fish fragrance. In this way, the taste was much more submissive. Although I haven't eaten the taste that can evoke emotions in the depths of memory, this is not a good thing. What's more, whether the taste in the depths of memory exists is another matter.
The pancake in the capital is very small. Even if there is fish, Wu Da has eaten it in a few bites. When he opened the second pancake and was about to try to put some grilled fish in it, a figure appeared at the door of the inn. It was the fat man who brought Wuhan University last night.
When Wu Da saw the fat man, the fat man was also looking at him. The two looked at each other. Wu Da put down the pancake in his hand and stood up calmly. Brother, you are here.
The fat man stood at the door and nodded. That's right, brother, I'll come and see you." After saying that, the fat man did not stop at the door, but walked a few steps to the opposite of Wuhan University and motioned for Wuda to sit down.
Wu Da also stretched out his hand and said "please", and the two sat down at the same time. After sitting down, Wu Da felt a little embarrassed. He was not sure whether to continue to eat or stop to talk to the fat man. It was very uncomfortable to be interrupted to eat, but if he continued to eat, it seemed too impolite. In fact, the best choice is that the fat man can also eat with Wu Da, but the meal in front of him is clear. It's one person, and it's a little too cramped for two people to eat.
