Dishes that don’t shine are not good dishes

My Little Shop (Salad)

About a quarter of an hour later.

Under the watchful eyes of Nakano Hui, Nakamura Lina, and two shopkeepers, Xie Yunfei, who finished putting the last dish on the plate, turned around, and in front of the four of them, fetched honey, sea salt, vinegar, and lemon juice that were put aside , and a bottle of unlabeled salad oil, pour it slowly into the plastic box.

His movements were as slow as before, as if a master was carefully sculpting his own work.

Seeing this scene, the two shopkeepers were fine, but the indifference on the faces of Nakano Hui and Zhongmura Lina had disappeared, replaced by incomparable seriousness and earnestness.

About a minute before and after, after pouring the last drop of salad oil on top of the shredded vegetables, Xie Yunfei heaved a sigh of relief, raised his head at the same time, and smiled faintly at the four of them, “Miss Zhongcun, I’ve been waiting for a long time, this is our special offer.” Diet for weight loss – five-color salad.”

As he spoke, he put the plastic box and a pair of brand new disposable chopsticks on the window, near Lina Zhongcun.

Lina Zhongcun was not in a hurry to taste it, but just unwrapped the chopsticks and made a small joke at the same time, “Little brother Yunfei, you are not so good~ This salad dish should not be considered a finished product.”

“En? What do you mean?” The male shopkeeper next to him asked doubtfully. He felt that the dish in front of him was already very good.

Kikuko Tamura shared the same opinion with him, “This plate arrangement is really beautiful. It is obvious that all kinds of shredded vegetables are placed in a circle, but just looking at it like this, I feel like I can eat a big plate .”

Lina Zhongcun did not refute the words of the two of them. She admitted that Xie Yunfei’s way of arranging dishes was almost perfect. Even she couldn’t do better, but…

“The way to eat this dish is very particular.” It was not Xie Yunfei who gave the answer, but Nakano Hui. After the words fell, he did not continue to explain, but looked at Xie Yunfei, with an envious look on his face, “I once went to Huaxia to participate in a study, so I was lucky enough to taste a glowing dish that is very similar to this salad…”

“Wait! Luminous cuisine?!” Lina Zhongcun’s eyes widened, “You said this is luminous cuisine?!”

Lina Zhongmura said the first half of the sentence to Nakano Hui, but when she spoke the second half of the sentence, her eyes turned to understand Yunfei.

The other two shopkeepers looked dazed. They knew about the special cooking, having watched many cooking shows, but what is the glowing cooking?

“The so-called luminous cooking is cooking that will naturally emit light on the surface after the cooking is done.” Teru Nakano explained. He pointed to the plastic box containing vegetable salad held by Lina Zhongcun, “For example, this dish, according to what I heard from Chef Huaxia, the last step-that is, stirring, is not done by The cook is done by the diners themselves. Of course, some diners who find it troublesome can also ask the chef to do it for them, but in this way, they will not be able to enjoy a very… Well, how should I put it, Zhongcun, follow what I said To do it, stir these shredded vegetables with salad oil and honey, and remember to let every shredded vegetable be dipped in the seasoning as much as possible.”

“It’s up to you.” Lina Zhongcun is a three-star special chef herself. Although she has never been to Huaxia, after thinking about it for a while, she also understood the meaning of the last step. When Nakano Hui explained, she had already picked up the chopsticks and started stirring slowly.

Her speed was also not fast, as if she was afraid of damaging the ingredients with too much movement, but at this moment, Xie Yunfei, who was standing in the cart, suddenly opened his mouth, “Miss Zhongcun, please stir vigorously, this dish is delicious only in this way .”

“Is that so?” Lina Zhongmura increased her strength, as an excellent super chef, her arm strength is not comparable to that of ordinary people, but even so, the various vegetable shreds in the plastic box did not break at all. On the contrary, under her vigorous stirring, the color Slowly gathering together, at the same time, a refreshing fragrance gradually drifted away.

“This scent is…five-spice powder?” Nakano Hui looked at Xie Yunfei, as if he wanted to get an answer from him.

“Guess.” Xie Yunfei rarely published his recipe… It may not be accurate to say that, although he has the recipe of ‘Five Color Salad’, the original author of the recipe is not him. That’s right, the ‘five-color salad’ in front of me is just one of the several glowing recipes that Xie Yunfei got in exchange for a few days ago with a golden smile.

“Sure enough, after following the chef from Huaxia, you, little brother Yunfei, have also become bad.” Lina Zhongcun complained softly, but the movements of her hands became more and more rapid, “I finally know now, in the introduction The weight loss refers to the exercise I am doing now.”

Zhongcun Lina is not fat, because of the balanced diet and the relationship between standing in front of the kitchen counter every day, her figure can be said to be quite perfect, but even so, after fully mixing the salad according to Xie Yunfei’s or Nakano Hui’s requirements, she There were still beads of sweat on his forehead.

Just when Lina Zhongcun finished stirring the last few shredded vegetables and was about to lift up the chopsticks, a faint light suddenly rose. The light is not dazzling, but very soft. After the initial burst, the light gradually converges, and finally flows on the surface of the shredded vegetables, or the colorful salad.

“It’s glowing!” Kikuko Tamura looked surprised. Although she had tasted Xie Yunfei’s golden ratio siu mai before, she didn’t see the light on the surface of the siu mai. In other words, when she saw it, she thought it was her own illusion.

Like her, there was the male shopkeeper, who showed a similar expression, and even rubbed his eyes, still in disbelief.

“Sure enough…it’s glowing.” Nakamura Lina sighed. After listening to Nakano Teru’s explanation so much, how could she still not understand, “It turns out that it is like this. Although the glowing dishes made by the chef are delicious, if they are glowing The diners themselves participate in the cooking process of the dish, so most people will find the dish more delicious when they taste it later, am I right?”

Xie Yunfei nodded. ‘Five-color salad’, the full name is ‘five-color, five-flavored and five-spice healthy weight-loss salad’, which was developed by a Chinese chef who studied Italian cuisine sixty years ago because his husband and daughter were picky eaters. At that time, the weight-loss salad was a very simple dish. The version is not even a special recipe, but after the recipe entered the Huaxia Food Research Institute and was improved by several generations of special chefs, it became a luminous recipe in the hands of Yunfei.
