Chapter 3948 74. Morality and Education Make the Country Prosperous (How to Eat One Fish in Nine Ways...)
"There is a saying about the nine ways to eat one fish - if you don't mind, Kunyang will show you how to cook it~"

When Shangguan Kunyang heard Wu Xuanyue take the initiative to open the topic, he continued talking along with Wu Xuanyue.

"As the saying goes, 'food is in Guangzhou, chefs come from Fengcheng', which means that there are many delicacies in Fengcheng. Because of the coastal characteristics, Fengcheng is rich in aquatic products, and there are many kinds of people and fish here, so naturally there are famous chefs who can cook fish. The chefs in Fengcheng are very innovative and have a spirit of research. Take eating fish for example, they are very meticulous in their research on fish. One fish can be eaten in nine ways, and these nine ways of eating one fish is the highest level of feast for entertaining guests here."

As he spoke, Shangguan Kunyang began to point at the large table of fish and gave another detailed explanation:

"First, the fish sashimi. The chef will select the best sea bream, the fattest part of the belly, and slice it into thin slices of moderate thickness with exquisite knife skills. The soul of this sashimi is its dipping sauce. There are many different kinds of seasonings in a round plate, including shredded ginger, fried taro shreds, lemongrass and seven other ingredients. When eating, sprinkle peanuts and two drops of sesame oil, and the freshness of the fish will be stimulated. You can dip it in the sauce according to your own preferences. This is to try the most natural and authentic taste of fish meat, which melts in your mouth."

As he spoke, Shangguan Kunyang deliberately moved the fish sashimi on the table to Wu Xuanyue's front, signaling Wu Xuanyue to start eating first.

Wu Xuanyue looked at the other person with a smile, without any intention of picking up her chopsticks. She nodded slightly, indicating that she wanted the other person to continue with the introduction.

Shangguan Kunyang was a little surprised to see Wu Xuanyue's behavior, but he couldn't say anything in front of others, so he continued talking at his own pace.

"The next dish is pickled pepper fish skin. After the fish meat is cut, the remaining fish skin can be cooked into porridge or made into pickled pepper fish skin. In fact, this dish is similar to a cold dish. The fish skin and pickled pepper are mixed together and eaten. The fresh and spicy taste stimulates the taste buds and is very special."

Wu Xuanyue nodded and glanced at Shan Lingyao. Shan Lingyao understood and turned the roulette wheel on the table again, making the whole table move.

Shangguan Kunyang was really confused. What on earth was Wu Xuanyue trying to do? He had clearly shown his sincerity in inviting her to a banquet, but she was still reluctant to pick up her chopsticks. Could it be that she had some idea about the dish? Or did she have some idea about him?

With a hesitant attitude, Shangguan Kunyang continued to introduce the third way to eat this fish:

"This is fish fillet porridge. Some thicker fish fillets are not suitable for eating as sashimi, so they are made into raw porridge. The chefs in Fengcheng know how to control the heat. The base of this raw porridge is boiled for a long time, and the rice grains have been integrated with the porridge water. Add a few slices of lettuce and the fresh fish fillets, and it tastes very delicious."

Wu Xuanyue had no intention of picking up her chopsticks, and asked Shan Lingyao to pass the dish over.

Shangguan Kunyang's expression was a little tense at the moment. She really couldn't guess what Wu Xuanyue was trying to do.

"This is a delicious fish ball. The fish meat is chopped into small pieces. You can understand this dish at a glance. Just like making meatballs, add seasonings and it will be a bit like shrimp balls. It can also be molded into balls, which is very suitable for hot pot. But it has a unique flavor if eaten dry." As Shan Lingyao turned the dial, another new dish appeared in front of Wu Xuanyue. Shangguan Kunyang could only bite the bullet and continue to explain.

"The bustling market in front of the second young lady is the most famous chopped pepper fish head in Fengcheng. The hot red chopped pepper covers the tender white fish head meat, emitting a hot and fragrant aroma. The spicy temptation of Hunan cuisine is perfectly reflected in the "chopped pepper fish head". The steaming method allows the freshness and fragrance of the fish head to be retained as much as possible in the meat, and the taste of the chopped pepper is just right. The fish head is soft and glutinous, fat but not greasy, salty and slightly spicy. It is tender and crystal clear in the mouth, with a gentle and elegant spicy taste."

Wu Xuanyue's eyes were fixed on the chopped pepper fish. She saw that she wanted to eat it, but she still didn't pick up the chopsticks. Shan Lingyao was still turning the wheel.

Seeing that Wu Xuanyue had no intention of picking up her chopsticks for the four dishes, Shangguan Kunyang's solemn face relaxed at this moment, because he had given up expectations and didn't want to guess Wu Xuanyue's thoughts anymore. He simply did the job of introducing the dishes.

"This is steamed fish tail. There is usually a lot of meat left in the fish tail, which many chefs don't know how to use. In fact, it is not bad if used correctly. It is very delicious when steamed. After all, the fish tail is agile. Although there are thorns inside, those who don't like it just think it is hard to eat, but those who like it know that the meat of the fish tail is firm and tastes excellent."

"This is deep-fried fish bones. The fish bones left after slicing sashimi can be coated with batter and fried in oil. The fish bones are crispy after frying and are a good choice as an appetizer. Although deep-fried fish is not as light as sashimi, it also has a lot of nutrition. For example, it is rich in high-quality protein and contains a variety of vitamins and minerals. The crispy taste is really unique."

"Fish intestine fried egg - a classic Fengcheng home-cooked dish, rich in nutrition, sweet and delicious. It is the dazzling star on the dinner table. The fish intestine fried egg is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It is rich in nutrition and has the effects of improving eyesight, improving intelligence, nourishing blood and strengthening the kidneys."

"Finally, it's our main dish, fish hotpot. The fish has been cut into almost any part of the dish, and the remaining ingredients can be stewed in a pot to make a delicious fish soup. The relatively thick fish fillets can be eaten in hotpot, which tastes better."

Having said that, Shangguan Kunyang pointed to the side dishes beside the fish hotpot, which included mutton slices, fatty beef slices, tripe, and many other meat products, as well as green chrysanthemums, lettuce, Shanghai greens, etc. It was quite a rich meal.

Shangguan Kunyang had considered everything. He thought that if the woman were to eat nine out of ten of the fish, she would still be able to be full. However, if two grown men were to eat just this little bit of food, it would probably not even be enough to fill their teeth.

After much consideration, Shangguan Kunyang decided to put some effort into this fish hotpot. Although his banquet was mainly for Wu Xuanyue, in order to entertain everyone present well, he prepared Cao Yunfei's favorite beef and mutton, and the girls' favorite vegetarian food, which was a reasonable combination of meat and vegetables.

This arrangement shows that Shangguan Kunyang has put a lot of thought into entertaining all the guests who come here. He has made a lot of progress in the way of treating people.

Although it is not expected that a dandy boy would be good, Shangguan Kunyang had always eaten the best since he was a child. Naturally, when entertaining important guests such as Wu Xuanyue, he would definitely use his best skills just to win their favor...
