Hunter x Hunter: The Ubiquitous Dragon Life

"No, this is the color of the fish stewed for a long time." Cellulu replied with a smile.

Western fish soup is usually transparent and yellowish in color because the cooking time is short, and it likes to add spices such as tomato or saffron.

Seeing that the assistant director and director Viktor still gave a vague expression, she simply explained it carefully.

"Fry the fish with onion and ginger, then put it in boiling water and cook it slowly. When the time is up, it will naturally turn into this milky white color like milk. It tastes mellow and delicious, only the umami of the fish."

"Listen to what you said, it must be a drink."

Victor laughed, took the lead and filled a bowl, and when he saw the tofu in it, he was surprised.

"Isn't this tofu usually fried? It can also be cooked in soup? However, the tofu has a light taste, and the non-strong taste cannot be set off. It is fresh in the soup."

Tofu itself is tasteless, so here they like to use Japanese cooking methods to make fried tofu, with soy sauce and shallots, the taste is very thick, no wonder Director Victor has this doubt.

Celluloid smiled, if it's good or not, you'll know after eating it.

Sure enough, Victor took a mouthful of the fish soup, his eyes lit up, and he shouted loudly.

"It's so fresh, oh my god, it turns out that only fish soup can be so delicious? Putting other things in it will make the guest a crowd!"

He scooped another piece of tofu and ate it in one bite. The tofu was sucked into his mouth like jelly, but it was many times more tender than the jelly. Before biting it, it had already spread out, and it was as delicate as grease, but it was not Victor. The imaginary tasteless or full of beany smell, the loose texture makes it full of delicious fish soup, but the taste is more dense than pure fish soup.

"Okay, tofu and this fish soup are a match made in heaven, it's a match made in heaven!"

Director Victor was completely obsessed with the taste, and stopped eating the local mixed fish soup, specializing in the fish soup made from celluloid, and the fish in this soup is not like the fish in the mixed fish soup to be completely eliminated, But it's edible, the meat is firm and chewy, one bite of tofu, one bite of fish, and one bite of soup, this trio of Victor can't stop at all.

After Men Qi finished tasting it slowly, her expression was also surprised, with a hint of complexity.

"Because fish is fishy, ​​the cooking idea has always been to use spices to remove the fishy smell. Later generations only knew that they kept adjusting or increasing the spice ratio, but I didn't expect that in fact, we could consider doing subtraction and only use green onions. The two flavors of **** can fully show the original flavor of fish and remove the fishy smell, Hatsune, you have taught me another lesson, make good use of subtraction!"

Cellulu was also secretly surprised that Men Qi was able to see through it at one point. She was indeed a genius in the culinary world. At least she couldn't do this by analogy. thinking.

However, it must be said that the fish soup must be the original flavor. Cellulu also thinks that it is not entirely the case. At least, after she has tasted the local mixed fish soup, she thinks that each has its own advantages and disadvantages, although it is true that the fish itself is delicious. It has covered up a lot, but the compound taste of vegetables, seafood, and fish soup with various spices is another level of deliciousness. A little butter, and a milky fragrance, plus the special umami unique to shellfish, it can be called a Western-style Buddha jumping over the wall, such a thick and mellow soup, with a fragrant taste but a little bland and dry The baguettes are especially delicious.

Celluloid praised her sincerely.

"As expected of a local famous, this addition is simply perfect." She smiled and winked at Men Qi.

Men Qi also laughed. Addition and subtraction are just ideas. She was shocked just now, and she actually raised a little doubt about her past cooking concepts. It was probably because the impact of Cellulo on her was too great.

There are a lot of people in Chrollo, no matter what cooking concept, deliciousness is the last word, so after a few people tried it, they found that the fish soup of celluloid was delicious, and the mixed fish soup was also delicious, but, Based on the love of the house and Wu’s psychology, naturally, it is more about the field of celluloid. Others have tasted a pot of fish soup, and they are all wrapped up by a few men. Empty pot bottom.

After the soup was finished, Men Qi wiped her mouth and looked at Cellulu with great interest.

"Next time, my dishes and the dishes of the villa will be regarded as staple foods, but I see that you have several dishes that seem to have light and strong flavors? This is what you need to introduce."

Celluloid didn't refuse, she stood up and introduced them one by one.

"The main food is easy to fill the stomach, so let's try the dishes I made first. These three dishes, steamed dongxingban, steamed baby abalone and scallops first, the crab is smooth and slightly sour, suitable for appetizers, and then the squirrel with sweet and sour taste. Fish and wine-stuffed round-shaped grilled fish, followed by savory and thick-flavored grilled aconite, garlic catfish pot, and finally spicy fish head with chopped peppers, pickled fish with green pepper and Wanzhou grilled fish.”

Everyone's saliva was drooling when they heard it, and as soon as Cellulu finished speaking, everyone's chopsticks went to the third grade of steamed vegetables.

Small abalone and scallops have tough teeth, and the unique delicacy of shellfish is stimulated by soy sauce, and even the fresh eyebrows and beards will fall off. The meat of Dongxing Spotted Fish is standard garlic braided meat, and a clip is a small piece of complete snow-white. Pour hot oil on the shredded green onion, dip it in the steamed fish drum oil, and eat it together. The taste is so delicious.

The knight liked this steamed fish very much, one person killed a whole one, and Cellulo also steamed four fish in total, so many people divided it, it can be seen that the knight liked it.

However, others saw that he was so fierce and did not fight with him. His stomach was limited, and there were still so many delicious things to eat. Everyone started to spoon and race crabs in their bowls. Hatsune said the name, In fact, everyone is very puzzled, obviously it is not made of crabs, why there is a crab in the name, but after eating, they are all startled.

"This... this is a crab? But this is obviously not made of a crab?"

Victor blurted out in surprise, his eyes were full of wonder, why can fish meat and egg white add a little vinegar to simulate the taste of crab? This is simply subverting his common sense!

"That's why it's called Sai Crab." Cellulu couldn't help laughing.

"How to eat, how can it look like a crab? How can it be so fake?"

The assistant director also took bite after bite with suspicion, but still thought it was a crab.

Men Qi's shock is no less than that of Victor and the assistant director. Using one ingredient to imitate the taste of another ingredient to the extent that it resembles the real one is another new concept in cooking, even more so than the subtraction of food. She was astonished, and even had an inexplicable sense of trance. This is the real panic of being full and busy, otherwise how could she come up with such a strange idea? she asked blankly.

"How did you come up with this idea?"

"Uh...probably because...poor..."

Celluloid looked up at the sky for a moment, before she felt embarrassed to answer, at least as far as she knew about the history of Sai crab, it was indeed because the poor could not afford real crabs that she invented this dish with a similar taste, she thought about it, again,

"Of course, this kind of imitation dish is not completely messy, and there are greedy ones. For example, our famous vegetarian feast can use vegetables, mushrooms and soy products to make the same taste as meat, poultry and seafood. , it was invented for those who want to fast but can't get rid of the meat."

"Poor and greedy..." Men Qi was rather speechless and a little nervous. "If I can invent so many dishes because of poverty and greed, then I will too. After all, my imagination is too limited."

After being slightly depressed, Men Qi regained her energy and looked at Cellulu with expectation and pleading.

"Hatsune, you must make a table of vegetarian dishes for me to try in the future. I really want to know how to make meat dishes with vegetarian dishes."

"Of course you can." Knowing that today was probably going to be a big stimulus for Men Qi, Cellulu didn't shirk the blame, she agreed, lest she couldn't eat it, and her heart would become a demon.

Men Qi felt better now, and then went on to try the next dish, but the next dish was still a surprise. It was the squirrel fish that focused on the shape. Speaking of which, Western dishes also emphasize the shape, but the shape of the geometric pattern is not like the Chinese style. Vegetable, this shape usually refers to a specific kind of plant and animal image in nature or a sculpture like a work of art.

The fish is cut into flower knives and fried in a slightly upturned position. The finished product is like a golden squirrel with its head raised and fluffy hair up. It is poured with tomato juice and sprinkled with pine nuts. The finished product is red and yellow with bright colors. ,striking.

"Squirrelfish, this is really like a squirrel, and it also uses pine nuts, which makes people feel... pointy?"

Men Qi looked at the shape, and already found some inner aesthetics of Hatsune's cooking genre.

"Well, squirrels shouldn't eat pine nuts." Cellulu joked.

This dish is the most suitable for everyone's tastes, because the cooking method is actually very Western. Fried fish and tomato sauce are commonly used in the West, but such a combination has never been seen before, so the taste is not only Familiar and fresh.

Hisoka has a high degree of identification with this dish. Holding a knife and fork is like tasting a steak, cutting it piece by piece and eating it.

Kuroro also prefers sweet dishes, but the tomato sauce is too greasy for him, so the fermented round fish is more in line with his taste. The sweet and sour has a slight sweet rice wine flavor, the round pie is soft and glutinous, and the fish is delicate. Soft and tender.

However, sweet dishes are not Feitan's dishes. He likes desserts, but he doesn't like sweet dishes, so he just tasted the squirrel fish and the wine-stuffed round fish. On the other hand, I ate a few more mouthfuls with the sauce-burned aconite.

As for the garlic catfish pot, out of the avoidance of garlic, although this dish tastes good, most people only taste it, and the garlic is hardly touched, only Victor, smiling happily, took a few of them without hesitation. particles.

"Garlic is a good thing, a stimulant. If you don't eat it, I will."

The garlic has been cooked to an unusually soft and waxy level, and there is no garlic smell at all. Victor praised it and ate all the garlic in this dish.

Finally came to the spicy dish, the degree of spiciness varies from person to person, but generally speaking, those who are used to eating Western dishes are basically not the type that can eat spicy food, so whether it is spicy fish head with chopped pepper, or hot and sour green Fish slices with peppercorns, or spicy Wanzhou grilled fish, after the first bite of these people, they all drank a gulp of water, but the charm of spicy taste is that the more spicy it is, the more you want to eat it, although the pain is abnormal, but There are a lot of self-abuse people, and they continued to challenge with chopsticks, and then they served with a large glass of water. I didn’t eat a few mouthfuls of fish, but the water dried up several cups, and all of them were mixed with water.

Illumi is still the main force in eating spicy food, and it doesn’t need to drink water at all. It is very refreshing to eat one bite at a time. Feitan can’t eat mustard, but the spiciness of chili can be tolerated, but among the three spicy dishes, I like it most without pepper. The numb-flavored fish head with chopped peppers, but the fish head was inconvenient to eat. Seeing him frowning, Cellulu fiddled with the fish, but she cleaned up a lot of meat for him.

This thoughtful act naturally made other people eat. Ilumi didn't say anything, just held up a plate and glanced at it, letting Cellulu understand the meaning. Cellulu is of course interested, and he seems to like it more. Wanzhou grilled fish, put a large piece of belly meat on his plate.

The knight wanted to fight, but he was a standard cat's tongue. He was afraid of being hot and even more spicy. After taking a few mouthfuls, he even stuck his tongue out, and drinking a lot of water was useless. At this time, he had no choice but to give up.

Hiso and Chrollo both have sweet and light tastes. Although they are not too unbearable to eat the numbness and spicy food, they don't like them very much. They moved their chopsticks a little and put them down.

Men Qi is worthy of being a food hunter. No matter what kind of food, she can adapt well, so even though she was sweating, she fought from the beginning to the end, and shared the three dishes with Illumi.

After eating Cellulu's dishes, many people in the production team were actually full, but facing Men Qi's crispy grilled tuna and seafood noodles with cuttlefish sauce, they couldn't keep their mouths shut, and they just stuffed a lot of them. , but when Men Qi saw their happy and painful expressions, they were also funny and angry, so don't hold back if you can't eat them.

Kuroro and the others exercise a lot, and their food intake is naturally much stronger than those of the production team. Cellulo eats less of everything, and naturally has an appetite. Men Qi's remaining dishes are all divided up by them. .

After the banquet was over, everyone in the production team slumped on their chairs. Even if they got up, they seemed to be pregnant women who were pregnant in September. All of them held their waists and slowly rubbed their stomachs with their hands. Walk slowly.

"No, it's up to the throat."

"I feel like I can't even lower my head. When I lower my head, the food can rush out directly."

"It's so painful, my stomach is about to burst, but I still want to eat it. The power of food is really terrifying!"

"It's so scary, you bastards! Don't you know enough is enough?" Director Viktor scolded angrily, rubbing his stomach while leaning on his waist.

"Haha, Victor, you're not eating and drinking." The assistant director looked at Victor with a 'fifty steps with a hundred steps' expression.

"Today is really dry, just how much time am I going to spend in the gym tonight~"

Yuri followed with a wry smile. As an artist, he shouldn't eat more, but Hatsune and Men Qi were both so delicious that he couldn't help it.

"Hiccup~" Kirby didn't want to say anything. The feeling of being full and full made him lazy, and he didn't even chase after Hatsune Miku. The power of food gave him a storm-like brainwashing. Only the three words "eat, eat, eat" kept reverberating in his mind.

The people in the production team are Xiaoshi, and they continue to work, but Krollo and the others are still refreshed and calm. , At night, they all went out for a walk, not knowing what to do.

Cellulu and Menqi are continuing their own seafood processing. After listening to Cellulu's instructions, Menqi is helping to clean the fins, bones and lips of the fish to remove excess blood and debris. After the meat, put it in water to soak.

Celluloid is dealing with jellyfish. Jellyfish are poisonous and cannot be eaten directly. They need to be processed with alum to neutralize the alkaline toxins that come with the jellyfish and evaporate excess water. , It is also very inexplicable, this is completely a chemical agent.

The two were working while chatting, and the production team was also diligently following the filming. When all this series of seafood was processed, the night was already deep. Victor saw that the two were tired and automatically canceled the night capture. Crab activities, but today's events also gave him inspiration. Victor felt that he could make a sea-lake-mountain theme. Today is a seafood dinner, tomorrow can have a collection of lake freshness, and the day after tomorrow, you can have a full feast of mountain delicacies. .

He shared this idea with Men Qi and Hatsune. They thought it was novel and interesting, and they all agreed. Victor happily changed his plan.

Men Qi stretched her waist, full of fighting spirit.

"Lake, I make very few fish and shellfish in the lake, because there is always an inexhaustible earthy smell, and the fish has many spines, and the shellfish is old. I always feel that the quality of the ingredients is too bad. , no matter how you cook it, it will not be delicious, but seeing your cooking method today gave me a lot of inspiration, I will try my best to try it and turn the bad food into good food."

"Well, but the fresh lake is not as delicious as seafood~, please look forward to tomorrow!"

After Cellulu nodded, her smile was also full of anticipation and eagerness to try. She grew up in a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, so in fact, compared to seafood, Hu Xiancai is her specialty.
