The genius villain's mother is going crazy in the kid's variety show by relying on food

Chapter 328: Deliciousness that Subverts Imagination

Time flies.

Before they knew it, the entire kitchen had gathered around Nanzhi.

From not paying attention at the beginning, to being curious later, and now being unable to take my eyes off it.

The one who was squeezed at the front was Lao Zhou.

"Slow down! Slow down! You can't be so impatient in the kitchen! How many times do I have to tell you guys before you understand?"

Lao Zhou roared angrily.

The other young chefs smiled:

"Old Zhou, let's watch it together."

Lao Zhou felt a little embarrassed when his little trick was exposed.

Nanzhi happened to come over:
"Almost?"

Old Zhou nodded repeatedly:

"Alright, it's all right. I'm watching you. I won't move my eyes at all!"

Other young chefs followed suit:

“We’re watching too!”

They were all vying to take credit in front of Nanzhi.

Nanzhi couldn't help but smile:

"Prepare to serve. By the way, there may be some leftovers. If you don't mind, would you like to share them?"

Everyone in the kitchen, including Lao Zhou, lit up their eyes!
"I don't mind, I don't mind!"

"This is not just leftovers, it is clearly the essence!"

"Thank you, Fourth Miss! Do you need a garbage disposal? A humanoid, living, walking one?"

"..."

Nanzhi waved his hand and ordered the dishes to be served again.

The oldest one, Mr. Zhou, was so agile that he took first place.

Nanzhi had the pride of a chef. She simply wiped her hands and walked out of the kitchen.

As soon as I reached the door, I saw several heads peeking around.

Nanzhi looked over and said helplessly:

"Don't hide anymore, come out."

Except for my uncle who has not come home yet and the two elders Qingshan and Xiao Qingfen, everyone in the family is here!
Nan Yi opened his eyes wide and looked at Nan Zhi accusingly:

"Why doesn't Mom want my help?"

Obviously when they opened the shop, his mother would allow him to help out!
Nanzhi paused, feeling embarrassed. He couldn't just say that today's dishes were too difficult and that it would be useless for you to help at such a young age.

In fact, it was not just Nan Yi. Everyone else in the family came to the kitchen one after another and tried to help Nan Zhi with chores.

Of course, their main purpose was not to let Nanzhi be responsible for the entire family dinner, and they just sat there and waited for the meal with peace of mind.

Even if Nanzhi is a professional chef, this attitude is disrespectful to her.

But if the whole family is involved, there will be no problem!
Everyone can share the work, making it an excellent family activity!

However, Nanzhi rejected them.

The reason is the same as for Southern Italy.

The level is not good enough.

But now, Nanzhi thought about it and changed his words:

"Because mom wants to give everyone a surprise! Of course, Yi Yi is included!"

Nan Yi was barely fooled by this statement.

But Fu Chao was drooling there:
"Zhizhi, this is no longer a surprise, we can smell the fragrance even when we are standing at the door!"

This is an exaggeration.

After all, considering the area of ​​the Qing family's old house, if the fragrance could really drift over there, it would literally spread ten miles away.

But there is no problem with filling the nearby spaces, and although it looks light and fragrant, it is actually very strong and overbearing, and even the flowers at home can no longer smell the fragrance! The knowledgeable Zhou Ling's eyes widened:
"The authentic Tan family cuisine bird's-and-fin feast we had a while ago didn't have this kind of fragrance..."

So how delicious must the bird’s nest and shark’s fin feast prepared by Nanzhi today be!
Facing the pairs of curious eyes, Nanzhi raised his hand and gestured:

"Take your seat, the food will be served soon."

Everyone sat around the table.

Qingshan and Xiao Qingfen followed closely.

Generally speaking, as people age, their sense of smell and other organs degenerate.

But the aroma of the bird's nest feast prepared by Nanzhi today was so strong that even Qingshan and Xiao Qingfen who were in the small living room could smell it!

If they hadn't been stopped by their children, the two elders would probably have run to the kitchen door together and waited for Nanzhi.

It’s the same now. When the two elders come to the restaurant, the first thing they do is grab Nanzhi’s hand and ask her if she’s tired or if her work is hard.

Nanzhi quickly responded with a few words and then arranged for the two elders to take a seat.

Now only my uncle Qingyang has not arrived.

Qingsi glanced at his phone:

"My dad said it will be here in 5 minutes."

Qingqing nodded:

"Then don't wait for him, Zhizhi, serve the food first."

Nanzhi nodded——

The bird's nest and abalone banquet officially began, and the first six dishes served were: barbecued pork, garlic toast, spiced fish, soft fried chicken, grilled sausages, etc.

The six dishes were evenly placed on a large turntable in the middle of the round table. Anyone who wanted to eat could turn it at will, but the portions were not large, after all, they were just appetizers before the formal meal.

But this appetizer alone is delicious enough.

The best thing is to eat it with wine.

Of course, food and wine must be paired with wine.

It must be authentic aged Shaoxing wine, which has been slightly scalded with warm water and placed together with the food and wine. The aromas are intertwined, making people salivate.

To be precise, these dishes and wine were not prepared by Nanzhi herself. Instead, the bird's nest and abalone banquet was prepared at a later stage and was specially taken over by chefs such as Lao Zhou, who were completely impressed by her. Nanzhi just gave instructions.

But the taste is definitely not bad, you can tell by the way everyone’s eyes light up while eating.

“Delicious! Delicious!!”

“Unfortunately the portion is a bit too small!”

"It's really wonderful to pair it with wine! It's really delicious!"

"Old man, you've already had two drinks and you still want more wine? Don't push your luck!"

"..."

After two rounds of drinks, it was time for the main course.

This dish is braised shark's fin. When it is served, the whole bowl is made golden by the shark's fin, rich and translucent. A strong aroma fills the nose, almost making the diners' souls fly to the sky.

"It smells so good!"

This thought has already appeared in everyone's mind before the shark fin enters their mouth.

In fact, there are many ways to cook shark fin, such as crab roe shark fin, dry-fried shark fin, three-shred shark fin, etc. There are more than a dozen kinds in Tan’s cuisine alone.

However, braised shark's fin still takes the top spot among many shark's fin dishes.

The Manzon yellow croaker fins used as ingredients have a plump texture and are rich in gelatin. They are soaked in warm water without any additives. They have to be boiled and then simmered. They also have to be washed countless times in the middle, which is very time-consuming.

Even though Nanzhi was very experienced, it still took her a lot of effort to process the shark fin until it was slightly tender and most suitable for cooking.

After the shark fins are processed, they need to be simmered in the broth for a long time until the fin meat is soft, glutinous and smooth.

The family members took a spoon and tasted the soup first...

They had raised expectations, but the final taste was still beyond imagination.

The golden soup is in accordance with the cooking method of Tan family cuisine. No spices are added, but it is pure freshness of the ingredients, which is almost extreme, thick but not greasy, like a wonderful piece of music with a long aftertaste.

Eating shark fin again, it is also a taste that subverts cognition, and there is only one word in my mind -

fresh!
