Chapter 211 Donglaishun

Donglaishun, the most famous shabu-shabu restaurant in the imperial capital, actually stir-fried dishes are also good, but the main thing here is the unstoppable shabu-shabu, so no one remembers the stir-fried vegetables here.

Many people in later generations said that if you go to the imperial capital to eat shabu-shabu, you can’t eat Donglaishun, and say that it is not as delicious as Yangfang shabu-shabu.But in fact, the quality of Donglaishun's mutton has always been very good, but it has become more and more expensive, making it less affordable.

But in this era, although Donglaishun is more expensive than ordinary restaurants, the price is still acceptable. After all, the quality of the shabu-shabu here is good.

Holding the chopsticks, Yu Chengqing picked up a piece of mutton, put it in the pot, soaked it in boiling water until it was dark brown, and then fished it out.

Dip it with the prepared sesame sauce, put it in your mouth, chew it carefully, and then nod your head, as if you recognized the taste.

But suddenly raised his head, looked at Wang Fei with some hesitation, and asked carefully:

"How do you eat this to be authentic?"

But Wang Fei turned her head to look at Wang Xu again, her eyes were somewhat obscure.

"Oh, this one, no matter how you eat it, it's authentic. Everyone has different tastes, just follow your own habits. There is also hot pot in Wanwan, so just follow your own habits." Wang Xu explained.

"When you come to the imperial capital, you have to eat according to the imperial capital's way of eating. This is a tradition, otherwise it would not be for nothing." Yu Chengqing still wanted to learn the tradition of the imperial capital a little bit stubbornly.

"Are you sure you want to try the way of eating in the imperial capital?" Wang Xu looked at the few Wanwan guests present. The Little Tigers, Yu Chengqing, and Hu Huizhong are all young people, so eating should not be a big problem.

"Sure, you have to eat according to the most authentic way of eating, which is the meaning of travel." Hu Huizhong's voice is nice, a bit soft and waxy from the people of Wanwan, but it doesn't have the kind of whine that is popular in later generations. It won't give you goosebumps.

"Well, let me show you first." Wang Xu nodded, stood up, and picked up a plate of mutton. This was two or two plates, and Dong Laishun's plate was not big.

Then, while everyone was dumbfounded, they rushed directly into the boiling water.

Then, I stretched out my chopsticks and stirred the mutton just put in. In less than three seconds, the meat changed color slightly, so I fished it out, put it in an empty plate, and showed it to everyone.

The color of the flesh only changed slightly, the surface turned grayish white with a slight pink tinge, and it just appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"Look, it's probably like this." Wang Xu enthusiastically showed everyone how hot the shabu-shabu is, and continued:
"No, eat it piece by piece, with big chopsticks picking it up, like this."

Then Wang Xu forked his chopsticks, and half a plate of mutton was put into his sauce bowl, dipped in the sesame sauce for a while, and then stuffed directly into his big mouth.

After chewing for a while, he swallowed it, and then another chopstick, and the whole plate of meat just piled up was instantly clean.

There was only an empty plate left, a group of spectators looking at each other, and Wang Fei next to him who covered his mouth and snickered so much that he could hardly hold back his voice.

"Look, it's that simple, come on, try it." Wang Xu picked up a plate of mutton and handed it to Yu Chengqing, encouraging him.

"Are you all so eager to eat?" Hu Huizhong sat on the other side of Wang Fei. She was the only female guest today, so she was arranged to sit next to Wang Fei.

"The whole family eats this way, don't be surprised. Otherwise, we wouldn't say that in the beginning, you just follow your own habits. Here in the imperial capital, the boiled mutton is eaten by the catty." Wang Fei explained to Hu Huizhong very carefully. , She likes this girl who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside.

Both of them have short hair. Although Hu Huizhong did it because of filming needs, it was enough to make Wang Fei feel good.

Seeing that she was still skeptical, Wang Fei took a plate of mutton and rushed it into the tumbling clear soup. Just like Wang Xu's action, it took less than three seconds to scoop it into her own sauce bowl.

Then a few chopsticks went down, and a bowl full of meat disappeared in front of everyone.

"Brother Qing, try it?" Wang Xuchong raised his eyebrows at Yu Chengqing, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

"Just try it, it looks so fierce." Yu Chengqing is really not timid. Like Wang Xu, he also picked up a plate of mutton, rushed it into the pot, stirred it quickly, scooped it up, and ate it. , and then the eyes brightened a bit.

Feeling the almost melt-in-your-mouth mutton texture, mixed with the rich taste of sesame sauce and chive flowers, Yu Chengqing felt the difference in this way of eating almost immediately.

The mutton is very tender, with a fresh and tender taste that he has never experienced before. It does not have the stiff feeling when he ate it just now. It feels like it shatters when it touches the teeth, and melts when it touches the tongue, and then swallows it involuntarily. .

"It's cool, as expected, you still have to eat according to the authentic way, you are called authentic, right." Yu Chengqing really knows how to behave, and immediately began to praise.

"Try it too, it's really cool." Yu Chengqing turned his head and greeted several members of the Little Tigers. This time he was the leader and had to take good care of the younger brothers.

"It's really delicious?" Wu Qilong looked at the excited Yu Chengqing, hesitant.

Among other things, just this chopstick has already exceeded his allowable food intake tonight. Will he eat anything else? They have strict dietary standards every day.

The youth team can’t eat too much. Most of the management rules for the men’s and women’s teams in Wanwan are learned from their childhood days, which are quite strict.

"The three of you share a game. The key is to start the game, and then you can share it later." Wang Xu saw the embarrassment of the teenagers, and reminded him.

Wang Fei had already picked up another plate, and thoughtfully helped Hu Huizhong put it into the soup pot, took it out, and thoughtfully added only one third to Hu Huizhong, and sent it to her sauce bowl.

The rest was unceremoniously put into his own bowl, and then he ate it again.

"Steamed mutton, right? In fact, it was originally Manchu's military rations, and it was freezing cold in the northeast.

After the sheep are slaughtered, the meat is rolled up into frozen meat rolls.

When fighting and marching, I would bring such a meat roll. When it was meal time, I would directly boil snow water, slice it into the pot with a knife, and eat it.

Therefore, this hot-boiled mutton has never been a famous dish. Its origin is military rations. Its biggest feature is to eat a large amount of food quickly in a short period of time.

So, to eat this thing, you have to serve the whole plate to have momentum and appetite.Don't be too polite, it won't taste good. "

After appreciating the expressions of all the guests, Wang Xu explained the background of the mutton soup.

"Come on, try it too. Go back and exercise for a while. Mutton is actually high-quality protein, not very long." Wang Fei also warmly cooked a plate for a few little tigers and asked them to try it too.

The atmosphere in the private room gradually heated up with Wang Xu's plateful of meat. Today is mainly because a few guests have activities at night, so it is not good to drink, otherwise a few glasses of wine will be served at this moment, and the atmosphere will be full of excitement. That's good.

There is no wine in the hot-boiled mutton, which is really not so interesting.If you really just want to be full in a mutton restaurant, then the pot is really boiling, the meat is down, and you are full, you should go.

The meal time may not be as long as the order time.

-

(Friendly reminder: This way of eating is only available in famous restaurants such as Donglaishun, and only freshly sliced ​​high-quality mutton is required. The kind bought from the vegetable market should be boiled before eating, that is, boil it for more than ten seconds The thing, but the taste will be worse. The hygienic conditions are not the same, mainly because of fear of parasites)
