Chapter 486 Why is it so sad?

Liu Taotao said nothing, but stared at the stir-fried loach on the plate with a pair of eager yet timid eyes.

Some people seem to have calmed down, but in fact they have been dead for a while.

The spiciness faded, but the desire to win in my heart was rapidly rising.

"Who said I was lame? I was just not prepared..."

Liu Taotao felt that he was ready again, so he plucked up his courage and stuffed another shiny and crispy loach into his mouth.

As soon as my teeth bit through the slightly charred surface, a sharp spicy taste rushed up along the tip of my tongue.

This time the spiciness came more cunningly, first hiding in the smooth and tender texture of the loach meat. When he tasted the spicy taste that was as dense as tofu yet tough, the power of capsaicin suddenly exploded in his mouth.

The strangest thing was that he could actually taste a strange flavor in this spicy aroma.

The feeling is like the sweetness of the loach that remains after the spiciness fades away, slowly crawling from the root of the tongue to the throat, and then drilling into the gaps between the teeth, bringing a bit of masochistic pleasure.

Before his brain could react, he picked up another piece with chopsticks and brought it to his mouth.

There are three entrances. Liu Taotao eats more and more fiercely, feels more and more satisfied, and forgets himself more and more.

Finally, his taste buds recovered and he successfully tasted the incomparable delicious flavor from the surging spiciness.

"Delicious! Mmmmm so delicious! Sizzle, sizzle, so spicy! So refreshing! The best part is that even the spines are fried until crispy, so there's no need to spit them out. It makes a sizzling sound when you chew it, and the more you chew, the more delicious it becomes!"

Liu Taotao was moaning in pain from the spiciness and shouting “ooh, oooh, it feels so good” at the same time.

"I have never eaten anything so fragrant and delicious in my life! One bite and your soul will leave your body. Two bites and you will ascend to heaven. Three bites and you will be illuminated by the Buddha's light. Four bites and you will return to the human world..."

"No, brother, aren't you hot? Why did I feel so good when you tortured me?!" Liu Mengmeng couldn't help laughing.

"If you don't speak, no one will think you're dumb! Even such delicious loaches can't stop your mouth!"

When Liu Taotao heard this, he glared at him.

"Haha, family members don't say that."

Seeing that the situation was not good, Liu Mengmeng quickly changed the subject, swallowed the loach in her mouth, and quickly set her eyes on the pork.

She couldn't wait to pick up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it into her mouth.

The sweet and salty taste spreads across the taste buds. When the teeth close gently, the fat oozes out, followed by the fibers of the lean meat.

It is so soft and tender that you can crush it with the tip of your tongue, but it still maintains its complete layering, and every thread of meat is filled with the rich aroma of the braised stew.

Liu Mengmeng's eyes suddenly lit up and she pointed at the pork with excitement.

"This pork is delicious! Come and try it!"

"Look at what you said, is there anything that Boss Su cooks that isn't delicious?"

Liu Taotao always listens to advice at times like this.

He quickly picked up a handful of meat with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth impatiently.

Later, sweet and sour carp was also served on the table.

After the carp was served on the plate, it stood upright, curved like a crescent moon, with its back slightly tilted, outlining a lively arc.

This arc is exactly the same as the shape of a live fish jumping out of the water, making people feel that this carp will come alive at any time.

The golden batter and light red sweet and sour sauce on the fish are perfectly blended. The lines created in the batter during the frying process resemble golden scales. Under the indoor light, the glass-like sweet and sour sauce turns the fish body into a warm golden red.

Liu Mengmeng held the chopsticks, but she actually felt a little reluctant to put them down.

Such a perfect work of art will be destroyed once you pick up your chopsticks...

"Crack--" Just as she hesitated, the chopsticks in her hand had already picked up a piece of fish uncontrollably.

Crispness is also one of the criteria for judging sweet and sour carp.

With the heat, knife skills and batter all perfect, this dish is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with soft bones and fragrant meat. The meat on the fish body can be easily separated with chopsticks.

The surface of the fish meat is covered with sweet and sour sauce like glass, and the cut part of the fish meat is white and tender like garlic cloves.

Liu Mengmeng put the sweet and sour carp into her mouth and chewed it slowly.

The strong sweet and sour taste instantly cheered her up. Combined with the extremely crispy batter and tender fish meat, the sweet and sour taste was wonderful in its blending and changing.

The last dish of chicken feathers is ready.

After quick stir-frying in a hot pan, the chicken greens become slightly soft but still retain their bright green color. They are piled up glossily in a white porcelain plate, with golden minced garlic dotted among the green leaves, adding a bit of attractive color.

My best friend Xiaolin picked up a piece of vegetable with chopsticks and put it into her mouth. The moment her teeth touched it, the tender leaves obediently opened up, revealing sweet juice.

The vegetable stems broke crisply, bringing with them the unique freshness of the fields, mixed with the aroma of garlic and a hint of oil that spread across the tip of the tongue.

There is not a trace of roughness of old tendons, only tenderness and freshness. After swallowing, there is a faint sweet aftertaste in the throat, which is so refreshing that people can't help but want to take another bite.

Liu Taotao's family and her best friend Xiaolin sat around the dining table, eating with great excitement, and kept exclaiming in admiration.

Su Chen cleaned up the kitchen, took off her apron, pushed open the kitchen door, and walked out to see that the plates on the dining table were basically empty, with only a little sauce remaining at the bottom of the plates.

"If it's not enough, can I make another dish?"

Su Chen thought about it and worried that everyone was not full, so he asked.

"Although I really want to agree, my heart is really tied up in my throat!"

Liu Taotao slumped in the chair, touching his belly, his face showing an expression of both happiness and worry.

I was so full that I couldn't eat anything else.

Liu Mengmeng and Xiao Lin, the best friends, were leaning on each other, both looking as if they were overwhelmed.

The two of them narrowed their eyes slightly, with satisfaction on their faces.

"To be honest, I would never have dared to think about eating the food cooked by Boss Su until I felt like vomiting."

Liu Taotao moved his body with difficulty and changed his sitting position.

……

At the same time, Aunt Huang next door was staring at the noodles that had just been cooked in front of her, but there was no appetite in her eyes.

Although the two families are opposite each other, their rooms are next to each other. On weekdays, no matter which family cooks, the smell will always drift to the other family's house.

At this moment, Aunt Huang smelled the aroma of cooking coming from the Liu family next door, and felt that the bowl of noodles in front of her seemed bland and tasteless no matter how she looked at it or smelled it.

"This dish smells so good, how did you make it?"

Aunt Huang couldn't help but think of the piece of pork she had just eaten.

As she gets older, Aunt Huang feels that her sense of taste has deteriorated a little, and everything she eats tastes bland.

However, the bite of pork just now made her feel that she had not tasted such a flavorful dish for a long time.

She was full of regret at the moment, and kept thinking that if she had not had that argument with the boy from the Liu family just now, perhaps Mrs. Liu would have invited her to dinner at home out of politeness.

Then, won’t you be able to taste it yourself?
