Chapter 320: Just the Right Control
"You two have so many common topics that you are so engrossed in the conversation?" Jiang Zhengchun laughed.
"Oh, I didn't know about Xiao Su's talent earlier. This song is really well written. Xiao Jing, you didn't tell me earlier!" Wen Jin rubbed his hands and admired them. "Xiao Su, go back and ask them what they think. After that, we can go straight to the recording studio! Your song is really good!"
"I wasn't at this level earlier, and she wouldn't be able to hear it if the mirror didn't play these tricks." Su Yuchen smiled and explained for Zhao Xiaojing, "I'll ask them later."
"What are you asking?" Wen Yulan asked curiously.
"When I asked about recording the song, Uncle Wen told me that they had a cooperating recording studio, and he gave me some suggestions. I changed the arrangement a little bit, and the whole framework of the song became clear. Uncle Wen's idea was really a stroke of genius!" Su Yuchen's eyes sparkled.
"Haha, then Wen Jin, you should help Xiao Su, he may come in handy this time.
Eat, eat. "
"Wow, five dishes have been served. They look really good!" Su Yuchen then noticed the dishes on the table.
"This Tomato Amber Ode is really beautiful." There were five small tomatoes on the long plate in front of Zhao Xiaojing. It looked like they were peeled and thickened with starch. The top tomato stem had been removed and replaced with a mint leaf. It looked very tempting.
Zhao Xiaojing picked up one and chewed it carefully, and found that it had surprisingly rich layers.
I don't know what happened to the cherry tomatoes outside, but after peeling them, the texture becomes just right, with a sandy and soft feeling. When you bite it open, it's juicy. The whole mouth is filled with a strong sweet and sour taste at first, and after a while, there is a refreshing taste of mint leaves. After chewing it twice more, the world inside the cherry tomato begins to show, the crispness of the walnut kernels and the chewy meaty aroma of the beef cubes dance together in the mouth. I can taste four flavors from one tomato.
"Delicious!" Su Yuchen praised.
"Haha, this dish is meant to fool you young girls, and it works every time. One tomato costs fifty-eight! Give me fifty-eight and I'll buy you more than ten kilograms." Wen Jin smiled and smacked his lips.
"So expensive?" Su Yuchen was surprised.
"So this plate of five tomatoes... is nearly 3 yuan? This... Aunt Wen has made you spend money again." Zhao Xiaojing paused while picking up the food.
"Why spend money? Don't the things you bought for your grandparents cost money? I'm taking you to try something new. Don't worry about how expensive it is, as long as you enjoy the meal." Wen Yulan glared at Wen Jin.
"Oh, I'll treat you at most. You're glaring at me with your dead eyes. That's so ugly. Yunyun, don't learn from you in the future!" Wen Jin saw Wen Yulan glaring at him, frowning and curling his lips repeatedly, "Xiao Jing, Xiao Su, eat, eat, just eat! It's just a meal, you won't go broke eating it!"
"Try this, try this! Zhenjiang crystal braised pork, the boss spent a lot of money to learn it, the same recipe as gunpowder, it's a famous dish, and next to it is crispy kale and hawthorn. Places like this are all about creativity, expensive or not is not the most important thing, and it doesn't matter who pays, what you eat is the boss's ideas and combinations." Seeing Wen Yulan's face getting darker and darker, Jiang Zhengchun hurriedly interrupted and pointed to a large flat plate in front of him.
"It turns out to be hawthorn!" Zhao Xiaojing took over the topic at the right time and shifted the attention back to the dishes.
The Zhenjiang crystal braised pork and crispy kale and hawthorn in front of me were served on a large flat plate, with five dishes in a row arranged diagonally in two rows. On the left was the square Zhenjiang crystal braised pork, with smooth and transparent jelly on top and red and white meat-like meat on the bottom; on the right were kale slices cut into squares, about the thickness of a one-yuan coin, with four slices stacked into an emerald green square, and a small red ball dotted on top of the square. Some juice was poured from top to bottom, and the two dishes, one red and one green, looked particularly good together.
"It's hawthorn, but it has been specially processed, so it tastes smoother and more delicious than pure hawthorn." Wen Yulan glanced at Wen Jin, ignored him, and turned to explain to Zhao Xiaojing.
"Eat this crispy kale and hawthorn first to whet your appetite, and then eat the braised pork. This way the pork will taste better." Jiang Zhengchun clearly held up a whole piece of crispy kale and hawthorn with a clean fork, and gave a piece to Zhao Xiaojing and Su Yuchen respectively. When they put the pieces on their plates, Zhao Xiaojing discovered that there was a thin paper tray at the bottom of the kale, which blended with the color of the bottom of the plate, and just held up the juice that dripped from the top of the kale.
"Oh, this crispy kale and hawthorn is so detailed."
Zhao Xiaojing first picked up the small hawthorn ball on the top and tasted it. After taking a bite, she found that this hawthorn ball was indeed more than just hawthorn. It tasted like jelly, but with a dense paste. The sour taste of the hawthorn was also adjusted. Although it was strong, it did not have the sour and refreshing impact of the hawthorn itself. With the juice poured from top to bottom, the taste was softer and richer.
When I took a bite, I realized that the sauce was actually vinaigrette. The taste was very good and I could tell it was prepared by an experienced chef.
The kale slices below are refreshing and have a slight vinaigrette, which makes the taste crispy yet not bland. The aftertaste of the hawthorn balls in the mouth complements each other even better.
Although there are four slices of broccoli slices, probably to go with the braised pork, the four slices stacked together form a square that is only the size of a large dice. They are all eaten up before you know it, leaving you wanting more while your appetite is fully whetted.
So much so that when Zhao Xiaojing took a bite of the Zhenjiang crystal braised pork, which was the same size of a dice, she found it extremely delicious. The crystal jelly and the braised pork were both very fragrant, and it was even more wonderful when dipped in the specially prepared vinegar dish.
"Meat is still the best! How can these fancy snacks be as delicious as meat?" Wen Jin licked his lips after finishing the meat. "How about we let him have another portion?"
"As for appetizers, they are sweet and sour snacks to whet your appetite. Otherwise, how would you think the meat is delicious? I guess you won't get another portion. He prepares it based on the number of people, so there shouldn't be too much." Jiang Zhengchun shook his head.
"Oh, so these dishes are calculated based on the number of people, one for each person, right?" Su Yuchen suddenly realized.
"Yes, and the order of serving dishes is also particular. The waiter will give suggestions on whether the combination is suitable for the number of people and the number of dishes they order after looking at the menu. Some dishes are delicious when eaten alone, but if you order the same type of dishes repeatedly, it will be too much and you will feel sick of them."
"That's right. Last time Wen Jin and I came here, he didn't like the cherry tomato, so I ate two in one go. But I felt that the second one tasted far less good than the first one, and I even felt a little sick of it." Wen Yulan said with a smile.
“So there are certain things to pay attention to when making private dishes. Simply put, it’s to make you smell the fragrance and taste the delicacy, but not to fill you up so much that you’ll want to come back next time,” Jiang Zhengchun concluded.
"This is really just the right touch." Su Yuchen murmured.
