Chapter 183: Tea (Second Update)

"Come on, let's start cooking!" As the mutton was put into the soup pot and rolled, the original bright red color of the mutton gradually receded, replaced by a grayish white color, and the fragrant smell that filled the room also increased. Stimulating the saliva secreted from the mouths of Jiang Hai and others, when the soup pot finally rolled again, with Jiang Hai's order, everyone's chopsticks also immediately launched an impact on the mutton in the pot. Jiang Hai's first The mutton in the mouth is eaten directly without any additives.

Put the mutton into your mouth, and a special aroma is constantly echoing in your mouth. The mutton's faint smell is absorbed by the seafood soup base. The meat is firm but not difficult to bite. Take a light bite. It can completely separate the meat, and the elastic feeling is constantly impacting in the mouth. This is a completely different concept from beef.

This is the taste that Jiang Hai is familiar with. He frowned slightly. Jiang Hai suddenly felt a little emotional. What if he couldn't eat such mutton in the United States? Suddenly he wanted to import it from China. Some sheep passed by.

"This mutton tastes really good. Where did you buy this sheep? I'll get some back to the United States to raise." Jiang Hai asked Fuyuan while constantly picking up the meat in the pot.

"Don't think about this. This mutton is a nationally protected species and is raised in that area. When my dad went to buy it, people there had to kill the sheep before selling them to my dad. You still want to buy it? Living body? Anyway, I can't help it." After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Fuyuan here shook his head and said to Jiang Hai while eating.

Hearing his words, Jiang Hai couldn't help but feel helpless. You say this is called a global village every day, but in the end it can’t even communicate with each other. Human beings are really hypocritical! But he didn't think much about it at the moment. Instead, he started eating directly.

Everyone was satisfied with their lunch, seven pounds of mutton, not counting side dishes. After five bottles of beer per person, lunch was finally over for the time being. Then Fuyuan and others cleared the table and started playing mahjong. As for Jiang Hai, he was lying on the sofa of Fuyuan's house, using his mobile phone to check how to get the ingredients he wanted to buy from the United States.

But if you don’t check, you won’t know. Once you check, you’ll be really shocked, thinking about it over the years. I have always heard through some channels that a certain country has embargoed something on China, ranging from weapons and ammunition to fish and cattle.

But in fact, China has stricter embargoes on foreign goods, such as the famous rice seeds. Not a single grain of this can be taken out.

You can buy rice, because current rice does not have the ability to save seeds, but seeds cannot, even if they can only be planted for one season.

There are also live animals, such as donkeys, no matter what kind of donkeys they are, they are embargoed abroad.

Cattle are also embargoed, and the United States does not sell Chinese Angus cattle. The island country does not sell Chinese Wagyu cattle, but China does not sell Luxi cattle either.

In addition to these things, such as this kind of sheep, there are also protective black goats in some areas, which are not allowed to be taken out. As for pigs, takeout is also not allowed in various countries.

For example, there are British Berkshire pigs, Iberian pigs, and domestic Tibetan pigs. It is not easy to take these pigs abroad. Looking through them casually, Jiang Hai couldn't help but curl his lips. Looks like my idea is going to die.

"Come, drink tea!" Just as Jiang Hai was sighing there, Fu Yuan came over with a cup of tea and drank the wine. Although drinking strong tea is not good, drinking some green tea is still very comfortable. , at least they think so.

Putting the tea on the coffee table next to Jiang Hai, Fuyuan quickly left. Jiang Hai looked at the teacup in front of him and sat up.

To be honest, Jiang Hai doesn't like drinking tea, because his father used to like drinking tea when he was young, so he also drank it. From a child's perspective, tea is neither sweet nor fragrant, nor does it have a milky taste. , the bitter taste is indeed not very pleasant, and the most important thing is that when you drink the tea, you will drink a mouthful of tea leaves, so he does not like drinking tea, and he has not paid attention to this.

But Jiang Hai was stunned for a moment when he saw the tea Fuyuan brewed today. In the transparent glass, there were complete tea buds rising and falling. It was indeed different from the tea leaves he had seen before.

It looked just like what was shown on TV. Although I didn’t know how the tea soup tasted, at least it looked good on the surface. He hesitated for a moment. After all, he had drank wine and his mouth was very dry, so he picked it up. Teacup, took a sip.

The moment the tea soup enters the mouth, there is a slight bitter taste, but after the bitter taste, there is a sweet feeling. He may not have been able to feel it when he was a child, but now Jiang Hai can fully feel the natural fragrance. The taste was constantly flowing between his lips and teeth, and he even instantly felt that the scales on his body were increasing faster.

"This tea! It also has such an effect!" As the tea soup entered his throat, Jiang Hai also let out a sigh of relief. Although it was just a simple cup of tea, Jiang Hai felt that his mind suddenly became clearer, and most importantly What's interesting is that this tea seems to really stimulate the growth of scales. Thinking of this, Jiang Hai also put down the cup.

"Fuyuan, where did you get this tea?" Jiang Hai asked loudly to Fuyuan who was still playing mahjong there.

"This tea was given as a gift to my dad. I heard it costs more than two thousand a pound. It seems to be some kind of tip." After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Fuyuan here was playing cards and facing Jiang Hai. Hai said.

"Mao Jian? Mao Feng..." Hearing Fuyuan's words, Jiang Hai was stunned for a moment, then checked online, and couldn't help but chuckled, but it is the same, whether it is Jiang Hai or Fuyuan, in fact, They don’t know much about tea.

Now Jiang Hai also became interested because he suddenly felt that the tea seemed to be quite delicious, and the tea seemed to have a stimulating effect on his scales. At the same time, he also decided to buy some tea leaves. , he doesn’t care if it weighs several thousand pounds, what he cares about is that this thing must be effective!

At that moment, he was no longer polite. He was drinking tea and playing with his mobile phone, thinking about what he would take with him when he went back.

Although you can buy everything you want in the United States if you have money, there are still some things that taste the same regardless of where they are produced.

For example, pigs, sheep, tea, and sauces. He originally wanted to go back yesterday, but unexpectedly, after walking around today, he found that there were quite a lot of things he wanted to buy.

Before they knew it, it was evening. They had shabu-shabu for lunch and roast lamb for dinner.

The mutton is sliced ​​from the black goat. Xu Wei is the chef. After the mutton is sliced, marinate it first, use cooking wine and ginger to remove the fishy smell, then add fennel, sesame, Sichuan pepper, pepper, starch, and MSG. If you are willing to eat spicy food, add a little chili powder. The mutton marinated in this way will have no unpleasant smell or too pungent taste. It will retain the original sweetness of the mutton and add other flavors. Bake it on a baking pan, and the roasted taste, tsk tsk, Jiang Hai really doesn't know how to describe it. In Jiang Hai's impression, mutton should taste like this.

Although in terms of taste, the taste of mutton may be much worse than Jiang Hai's premium A-grade Snowflake Frost Beef.

However, this kind of method does not exist in the United States. Although Mrs. Philemon has Jiang Hai’s money, she really does not spend so much time baking these things. Even some Western chefs are just for The use of Huohou is even easier.

It's delicious, but for Jiang Hai, it's not as delicious as what he likes to eat.

It was another delicious meal, and several people drank almost all the remaining wine of the day. They drank until nearly twelve o'clock in the evening, and then everyone fell asleep in a daze, because they were all men. Needing to be so particular, Fu Yuan and Xiang Hua went to sleep in his room, while Xu Wei and Huang Yuanfei slept on the sofa. Jiang Hai pulled off a quilt and made a bed on the floor in the living room.

The building inside Fuyuan's house was just built in the past few years, so it is also paved with floor heating. There is no need to worry about the cold at night. I spent the night without talking. When Jiang Hai got up the next morning, his There are no signs of these guys waking up yet.

In line with the principle that he should not let them sleep more after he woke up, Jiang Hai went to the balcony and opened the window. The winter north wind mixed with snowflakes blew their tears! The two people sleeping on the sofa got up in an instant.

For the reason that they couldn't sleep, and others couldn't sleep either, they quietly opened the door of Fuyuan's room. It was good time for everyone to stop sleeping, and they went to the bathroom one after another in a daze to solve their personal problems. After a health problem, a group of five people cooked three kilograms of dumplings at Fuyuan’s home. Generally speaking, during the Chinese New Year in the Northeast, a family may not have much else, but they definitely have dumplings, including three kilograms of sour pork dumplings. After eating it, everyone woke up.

After helping Fuyuan pack his things, everyone left in Xu Wei's car.

It was already afternoon by the time Jiang Hai came home. After having a casual meal at home, Jiang Hai was not idle in the afternoon. Instead, he went to a nearby supermarket. Service organizations like this usually spend more time during the day. They will be open for a while, but they used to close at 8 or 10 pm, but now they close at 4 or 5 pm.

Jiang Hai had a lot to buy this time, and he needed to prepare in advance.

After taking a taxi, he went to a large supermarket close to his home. He first went there to browse for sauces and pickles. These things are all available for taking with you, and some domestic sauces are also sold abroad. It's made from ingredients like Lao Gan Ma and the like, but the price is ridiculously expensive. It costs six or seven yuan in China, but it costs more than ten dollars abroad. The price difference is dozens of times!

In addition to Lao Gan Ma, there are also Xiangqi sauce and garlic chili sauce. Jiang Hai has had enough of pasta sauces, but these sauces are reliable. (To be continued.)
