Chapter 332 Roasted Pepper Preserved Egg (2)

Perhaps they were really curious about the dishes made from these two ingredients, so a few servants specially picked a food table closest to the public kitchen countertop and sat down. While drinking the whole grain porridge and digging into the salted duck eggs, they looked at it from time to time. Wen Mingtang, who was busy behind the kitchen, looked over.

Although he was aware of everyone's attention, after all, Tang Yuan and Ah Bing couldn't help but wonder what the dish made from these two things would look like, and it was no surprise that others were curious.

Wen Mingtang didn't even raise his head, he just lowered his head and carefully handled the blackened pepper on hand.

It is very easy to peel the blackened peppercorns. With a gentle tug, the thin layer of burnt black peppercorn skin was peeled off. After peeling off the skin, Wen Mingtang began to chop the peppercorns. When the peppercorns were peeled off, Chop it into pieces, add some minced ginger, garlic, salt, sugar and white sesame seeds, and pour a spoonful of hot oil on it.

When this spoonful of hot oil is poured on it, the familiar and rich aroma immediately spreads.

I just finished frying a pot of sesame dumplings and smelled the smell of the dumplings. I couldn't help but stop what I was doing, and gathered around with Ah Bing to watch Wen Mingtang cooking. Wen Mingtang poured the sauce and sesame oil into the large bowl of various condiments, and then started stirring.

Because a lot of green peppers were added, at a glance, this big bowl of sauce also looked a little "green". This is the first time I have seen a sauce of this color, but although the color is strange Order it, and with that weird spicy taste, it seems to be inexplicably appetizing.

"This is the roasted pepper sauce used for roasted pepper preserved eggs." Wen Mingtang kept moving his hands without raising his head, but said with a smile, "It's delicious for holding steamed buns, mixing noodles, etc."

After staring blankly at the bowl of weird sauce for a moment, Tangyuan suddenly became excited and realized: "Isn't this just like the scallion sauce from before, it can be mixed with noodles and vegetables?"

Although the ingredients for that unique scallion oil sauce are just some scallions that can be found everywhere, the taste after cooking is surprisingly delicious. She is still not tired of eating a simple scallion oil noodles since the first time she encountered it. Pass. The modified scallion oil has even been used to mix with cold dishes such as Qianzhang and shredded lettuce. It is extremely refreshing and delicious.

Wen Mingtang nodded. Although he had prepared the roasted pepper sauce, when making the roasted pepper preserved eggs, he still scooped out a few more spoonfuls of the roasted pepper sauce, added vinegar, minced ginger, salt, and sugar to season separately, and finally poured it on On top of the preserved eggs, put coriander on top and take it out.

The presentation of the preserved eggs with roasted peppers looked pretty good, but the slices of sliced ​​preserved eggs were too conspicuous, and the shadow left by the previous attempt to eat the preserved eggs on an empty stomach made it a bit daunting.

Not only that, Master Wen also specially placed a wooden sign with the word "spicy" written on it in front of the plate of roasted pepper preserved eggs. This was specially made at the request of everyone in Dali Temple to remind those who can't eat spicy food. This dish is a lot spicier than the dishes you eat every day, so it’s better to eat less or not eat it at all.

Judging from the small portion of the roasted pepper and preserved egg, you can guess that not many people can accept it, so Master Wen only made this amount. But...the few guards looked at the plate of roasted pepper and preserved eggs, but they couldn't help but turn their attention to the plate of preserved eggs.

It’s not that the rest of the morning food isn’t delicious: the whole grain porridge is fragrant and soft, and the various side dishes satisfy almost everyone’s appetite. The fried sesame balls are crispy on the outside and waxy on the inside, whether they are hollow or stuffed with bean paste. , sesame filling, when combined, they all complement each other.

The morning meal was delicious, but looking at the plate of roasted pepper preserved eggs and smelling the smell of roasted pepper, I wonder if it was because of my curiosity. Even though I knew this dish was very spicy, I still couldn't help but want to try it.

While the servants were still hesitating, the rice dumplings and Ah Bing in the compartment were already holding a bowl of multigrain porridge, and were using the serving spoons on the counter to scoop up the roasted pepper and preserved eggs.

Even though they knew this dish was spicy, the two of them were the closest to Master Wen. With the roasted pepper preserved eggs right in front of them, how could they resist? Besides, isn’t there this bowl of porridge with whole grains? I really can't stand it, so I just use this bowl of porridge to relieve the spiciness.

The serving spoon scooped out a piece of preserved egg with green roasted chili sauce and put it into the multigrain porridge. Resting on the surface of the porridge for a while was able to relieve some of the spiciness. After the preserved egg was put into the bowl, the two of them put it in the chopsticks and spoons. After hesitating for a while, he still used chopsticks, picked up the piece of preserved egg and put it into his mouth.

As soon as the preserved eggs with roasted chili sauce entered their mouths, their eyes suddenly lit up, and a unique spicy aroma with indescribable flavor rushed directly into people's Tianling Gai. It was also spicy, but they tasted the same at the same time. The spiciness is completely different from the other ones. The unique chili aroma of roasted peppers is blended with various auxiliary ingredients such as garlic and ginger to form a particularly delicious and unique taste.

The flavor of this roasted pepper sauce is extremely delicious even if you eat it empty-handed. When paired with the peculiar aroma of preserved eggs, it feels like something completely natural.

The delicious taste in the mouth made people squint their eyes in pleasure, but the next moment, they saw the two people who were enjoying it a moment ago sticking out their tongues and gasping with "hissing". There was no time to change the spoon, and they just used it. The chopsticks took big mouthfuls of the multi-grain porridge in the bowl and put it into his mouth.

After pulling down half of the multi-grain porridge in the bowl, the two of them stopped what they were doing. When the spicy taste in their mouths finally eased, they looked up and met several pairs of eyes looking at them. .

A few steps away, a few servants who were eating fried sesame dumplings and multi-grain porridge at the food table saw the two of them coming over and couldn't help but ask, "How is it? How does this roasted pepper preserved egg taste?"

Ah Bing and Tang Yuan looked at each other, and they both nodded in unison, and then said: "It's delicious and spicy, paired with the taste of the preserved eggs, it's really amazing. It's just that the spiciness... is really unbearable. , unwilling to stop eating, but not daring to eat more."

In short, you must eat, just eat less! Once you develop the ability to eat spicy food, eat more.

Just watching the process of the two eating the roasted pepper preserved eggs made the guards a little excited. When they heard this, they hesitated for a moment and looked at the more than half of the grain porridge and a few sesame balls left in the bowl. They suddenly felt that they still had something to eat. Those who felt the taste looked at each other and stood up one after another. They went to the stage and asked Wen Mingtang if he wanted to try a slice of roasted pepper preserved egg.

Wen Mingtang couldn't help but smile when he saw this. He used a serving spoon to scoop out a piece of preserved egg and put it into the multigrain porridge for several people. He said with a smile: "Try one piece first. Don't force it. This food is spicy." Things have to be done slowly!”

…

At a quarter past midnight, when Liu Yuan hurried into the public kitchen from outside, half of the food tables in the public kitchen lobby were already occupied.

This group of colleagues is really the most active in the word "eating". Liu Yuan murmured in his heart. At this moment, he seemed to have completely forgotten that he was the first to go to the public kitchen for three meals on weekdays.

However, coming in the evening was not without its benefits. I glanced at the food on the tray in front of my colleagues who had come early: I had seen multi-grain porridge and side dishes before. The round ones were mentioned in the small chatter of my colleagues. The thing called sesame balls I thought was a new snack made by Master Wen. Listening to the crunching sound when biting into it, I figured it would be delicious.

But what surprised him the most was that almost everyone had a portion, which was a piece of preserved egg poured with green sauce on top of the multigrain porridge.

Is this a new dish made by Master Wen using the weird-tasting preserved eggs? Liu Yuan is not that averse to the peculiar taste of preserved eggs, especially the dishes made by Wen Mingtang. No matter how weird they are, he is willing to try them, but it is a little strange that only one person can get one piece.

This is too stingy!
