I set up a stall in Wanjie to sell barbecue

The guard quickly picked up the tray and placed it on the referee's table.

Large chunks of tofu, grilled to a golden surface, are extremely tempting.

On the top of the tofu, a layer of "praise sweet noodle sauce" was spread, a little chopped green onion and pepper were sprinkled, and there was no other embellishment.

Wu Sangui picked up the sharp knife and prepared to cut the tofu.

Zhou Yilan hurriedly reminded: "You can't use a knife, you must use chopsticks to break apart the tofu!"

Wu Sangui put down the sharp knife, picked up the chopsticks, poked it into the tofu, and slowly pushed it away...

I saw ten slender loaches hidden inside the tofu!

Wu Sangui was pleasantly surprised: "It's actually loach! Why are they inside the tofu!"

Liu Xuanchu opened his eyes wide: "The whole piece of tofu was undamaged before being pulled apart! Every piece of loach was completely intact after being roasted! This... this is unbelievable!"

Zhao Yinger said with a smile: "Obviously, when the ten loaches were alive, they got into the tofu and were roasted together."

Loach drilled tofu is a well-known traditional dish in modern society.

According to legend, a fisherman named Xing Wenming lived in Shenmiao Street, Zhoukou District, Henan Province. He made a living by catching fish and shrimp. He often caught some loach. After selling the bigger loach, no one cared about the smaller loach, so he brought it back to the village. home cooking.

He first put the small loach into the water basin to spit out the silt, and then directly poured it into the pot and stewed it with tofu.

After cooking, it was found that the small loach had penetrated into the tofu, which was delicious, so it was named "loach drilled tofu".

Later, after continuous improvement by chefs, "Loach Drilled Tofu" was cooked more finely, and it has two elegant names: Hangong Zangjiao and Diaochan Tofu.

But in the early Qing Dynasty, "loach drilled tofu" had not yet been invented.

Zhou Yilan actually created this strange barbecue delicacy without Lin Yu's prompt, which shows that she racked her brains.

Of course, it also has something to do with Zhou Yilan's disguise as "a hunchbacked old man selling tofu".

After all, tofu is the main ingredient of the "Shimobang", and it should be conceived and creative around tofu, so as to bake a wonderful delicacy.

Wu Sangui said enthusiastically: "Master Zou, quickly reveal the secret to me, how you make this wonderful barbecue!"

Zhou Yilan coughed a few times and explained in an old voice.

"I put ten small loaches in clear water first, spit out the mud in the stomach, then pour the bone soup into the pot, heat it up slowly, and then put the ten small loaches and this piece of tofu into the hot soup."

"The little loaches were afraid of the heat and had nowhere to escape, so they hurriedly got into the tofu. When the bone broth boiled, the ten little loaches were scalded to death and fixed in the tofu."

"At this time, I take out the tofu, drain the soup, put it on the grill, and grill it slowly over charcoal fire until the surface of the tofu is golden brown, and you're done!"

"This wonderful delicacy combines the deliciousness of tofu with the deliciousness of loach, and the name is - live loach drilled tofu!"

good!Everyone cheers!

Zhao Yinger took the opportunity to praise: "Jiang is still old and spicy, Chief Zou's whimsical idea opened our eyes!"

Duolong said: "Live loach and tofu are so wonderful. This barbecue can be brought into the palace for the emperor and queen mother to taste. They must like it!"

Wu Yingqi was very surprised, to be precise, it was Sun Yunlei who was shocked.

He did not expect that the inventor and creator of "Loach Drilling Tofu" turned out to be a hunchbacked old man selling tofu in the "Stone Mill Gang"!

Liu Xuanchu twitched his beard and praised sincerely: "There are so many wonders in the world! Stone Mill Gang not only uses black iron to make 'Xuan Tie Mill', but also creates such novel and wonderful barbecue delicacies with ingenuity!"

Feng Xifan, Zhang Qingfeng, Xian Zhaofei, Wan Yingcai also praised sincerely.

Long Er suddenly asked: "Live loaches got into the tofu, their viscera, aren't they still in the stomach? Such a stench, how can they be eaten?"

Lin Yu was startled. Could it be that Long Er wanted to find fault?

Chapter 391

Facing Longer's doubt, Zhou Yilan chuckled, the wrinkles on her face were like a chrysanthemum.

"Actually, I wanted to remove the viscera of the loach, but the loach is small in size, and it is easy to rot the gall when removing the evisceration, so I put the loach in clean water for a night in advance, so that they can completely spit out the silt in their stomachs."

Long Er's willow eyebrows frowned slightly: "Even so, I still feel that the internal organs are not clean, at least, the earthy smell is too strong."

Zhou Yilan said: "If Master Long dislikes it, you don't have to eat the internal organs of the loach, but only the meat of the loach!"

Wu Sangui hurriedly said: "Little loach, as long as it is cleaned up, there is no need to remove the internal organs. This is the same as frying small hairy fish! Zou Bangzhu is right, Master Long doesn't eat the internal organs of loaches."

Since Dai Danli had won eight votes and achieved Wu Sangui's expected goal, he no longer had to favor Dai Danli, and temporarily supported the leader of the Stone Mill Gang "Zou Wuying".

Long Er took out the long and thin silver needle, pierced it into the tofu, and began to test whether it was poisonous.

Zhou Yilan chuckled a few times: "If I have the ability to poison, I will offer a reward of 30 taels of silver to catch the mysterious thief? Why don't I smear the black iron mill with poison, so that no one dares to touch it, and I will be poisoned and die if I touch it."

Feng Xifan was curious: "There is very little black iron in the world, how did Chief Zou get a large amount of black iron to cast into a millstone?"

Zhou Yilan said casually: "In the Stone Mill Gang, there is an old blacksmith with extraordinary skills. He has collected a lot of black iron and specializes in casting swords and sabers!"

When Feng Xifan heard this, he was very interested: "Come to visit some other day, and ask the old blacksmith to forge a black iron steel knife for me!"

Zhou Yilan said: "The old blacksmith only forges weapons for his brothers, never for outsiders."

Feng Xifan said: "Thousands of gold are easy to get, but precious swords are hard to find! As long as the old blacksmith casts a black iron steel knife for me, I would like to offer 1 taels of silver to express my gratitude!"

Zhou Yilan said: "Master Feng is thirsty for knives, after I go back, I will discuss it with the old blacksmith."

Feng Xifan said with a smile: "Thank you, Chief Zou, I will wait for the good news."

Listening to Zhou Yilan fooling Feng Xifan in a serious manner, Lin Yu couldn't help laughing again.

Long Er put away the silver needle and said to Wu Sangui: "My lord, tofu and loach are not poisonous, you can taste them with confidence."

Feng Xifan immediately divided the tofu and loach into ten portions and put them on everyone's plates.

Wu Sangui tasted it first, ate a piece of tofu, and then exclaimed: "This... this tofu tastes so delicious! It's incredible!"

Wu Yingqi disagreed, and also took a bite of tofu.

His eyes lit up: "It's incredible! I've never eaten such delicious tofu!"

During the baking process, the surface of "Live Loach Drilled Tofu" was coated with a layer of magical "Praise Sweet Noodle Sauce", which greatly increased the deliciousness of the tofu, and quickly controlled the brain nerves of Wu Sangui and Wu Yingqi, completely admiring them.

Immediately afterwards, Wu Sangui and Wu Yingxiong ate the loach, chewing it slowly.

The eyes of the two were slightly narrowed, immersed in the deliciousness of the loach, and they had no time to praise...

Zhao Yinger, Duolong, Liu Xuanchu, Feng Xifan, Zhang Qingfeng, Xian Zhaofei, Wan Yingcai also started tasting.

Zhao Yinger's eyes lit up: "Wow... the tofu is very smooth and tender, absorbing the deliciousness of the loach meat! The loach meat melts in the mouth, it's so delicious!"

Liu Xuanchu shook his head and said, "The color is brighter than pear blossom white, fragrant, tender, soft and fresh! This tofu is roasted with crispy skin, fragrant outside and tender inside, and it has a long aftertaste! I swear to God, I have never eaten such delicious tofu." Tofu!"

"The loach in the tofu is more delicate and smooth, with endless umami taste and no earthy smell. It is on par with the fugu meat I ate before! It's beautiful! It's wonderful!"

Lin Yu was secretly proud that "Live Loach Drilled Tofu" and "Grilled Fugu Meat with Walnut" were both coated with "Praise Sweet Noodle Sauce".

Duolong eats boldly, slurping, sucking the tender meat of the loach vigorously, and swallowing it into his stomach.

He imitated Liu Xuanchu's tone, and also shook his head and said: "Tumbling and rolling in the mud, slippery and black, ugly but delicious, the gap between the lips and teeth! Hahaha... loach is so delicious, one is not enough for me eat!"

After finishing speaking, Duolong looked at Zhao Yinger's plate eagerly again.

Zhao Yinger hurriedly said: "Don't look, I will never share tofu and loach with you! Never!"

Duolong swallowed, staring at the "Live Loach Drilled Tofu" on Long'er's plate.

Longer originally disliked the loach for not removing the internal organs. She tasted the baked tofu first, but was captured by the "praise sweet noodle sauce", and quickly tasted the loach.

"My lord, don't look at me, this loach is really delicious, far beyond expectations, and it's not enough for me..."

Duolong's halazi flowed down the corner of his mouth, and he hurriedly picked up a white handkerchief to wipe it off.

Creak...creak...Feng Xifan swallowed the bones of the loach until there was not even tofu left on the plate.

Zhang Qingfeng, Xian Zhaofei, and Wan Yingcai also gobbled it up, eating happily and full of praise.

In the end, Wan Yingcai picked up the porcelain plate, stuck out his tongue, and licked off the tofu residue and gravy, truly realizing the "Operation CD".

The elders and disciples of the beggar gang belonged to the most greedy team on the scene.

They stared intently at the ten referees, smelling the tempting aroma of meat, salivating!

"My lord, save us some loach tails, let us have a try!"

"Don't leave the tail, just leave the fish bones of the loach!"

"Don't lick the leftover tofu dregs, give it to us..."

……

Wu Yingxiong reminded: "Everyone! Please vote!"

Wu Sangui held up the red wooden sign without hesitation.

Zhao Yinger, Wu Yingqi, Duolong, Feng Xifan, Longer, Liu Xuanchu, Zhang Qingfeng, Xian Zhaofei, and Wan Yingcai all raised their placards neatly!

Out of ten votes!

Wu Yingxiong announced: "Congratulations to Zou Wuying, the leader of the Stone Mill Gang! 'Live Loach Drilling Tofu' won ten votes!"

The audience exclaimed, applauded everywhere, and the cheers continued!

Dai Danli and Feng Budong only got [-] votes and were defeated by Zhou Yilan!

Feng differently shook his head and sighed.

He knew that "Tomato Grilled Crab Dumplings in Soup" was far less exotic than "Live Loach Drilled Tofu", so he was convinced.

Dai Danli smiled and looked at Zhou Yilan with admiration.

Wu Yingxiong said: "Dai Danli, the saint of the Persian Mingjiao, and Feng, the leader of the Changle Gang, are different. They were eliminated by a difference of two votes!"

Zhou Yilan hunched over and clasped her fists politely: "Admit, admit!"

Wu Yingxiong said: "There are still seven challengers who have not appeared! Who will show off their wonderful barbecue and compete with Zou Gangzhu?"

In an instant, the audience became a bit quiet...

Chapter 392 I Admire Sister Piao

Suddenly, the three challengers raised their hands and said in unison: "We admit defeat!"

Knowing that his strength is not enough, he gave up as soon as possible, so as not to be ridiculed and embarrassing.

Wu Sangui nodded in agreement: "Back off."

The three challengers exited the arena disheveledly, their strange food still placed on the grill.

At this moment, the disciples of the Beggar Gang couldn't bear it anymore!

I saw them rushing over at a high speed, snatching the "barbecue works" of the three abstaining challengers, and taking them back to the wine table to feast on.

"Elder of the Nine Bags" Lu Wanli stared and scolded angrily: "Presumptuous! Looting food in front of the prince, how decent! Although my beggar gang is begging along the street, we are still proud, how can we eat the barbecue discarded by the challenger?"

The words are passionate and powerful!

A disciple of the beggar gang hurriedly handed Lu Wanli a bunch of grilled frog legs: "Elder Lu, I snatched the frog legs, try it out!"

Lu Wanli opened his mouth angrily, took a mouthful of the frog meat, and chewed it quickly.

"Hmm! The frog meat is really fresh, it's spicy and numb, and it's roasted properly..."

Lu Wanli grinned while evaluating.

The passion and righteousness just now disappeared, and the clank and arrogance have become soft bones.

What can a gang secretly manipulated by the royal family do?

Lu Wanli quickly gnawed on the frog's leg, wiped off the red oil from the corner of his mouth, and sighed with emotion.

"It's a pity, roasted frog legs are not amazing enough, no wonder he gave up the challenge, he has self-knowledge!"

The middle-aged challenger who roasted the frog legs happened to be sitting next to the beggar gang.

He snorted coldly, and rolled his eyes with contempt: "My roasted frog legs are indeed not as good as Zou Gangzhu's 'Live Loach Drilling Tofu', and I admit that I am inferior to others! But Lu Chang's "Longfeng Chengxiang", secretly You ridiculed Princess Jianning as a little hen that shed her hair, and ridiculed the little prince as a snake, your creativity is really weird and bold!"

After hearing this, Lu Wanli became angry from embarrassment, and stood up abruptly: "You roasted some stinky frog legs, how dare you mock me?"

The middle-aged challenger said: "You think my roasted frog legs are stinky, but you still enjoyed them just now? You also praised me for roasting them properly?"

Lu Wanli's face turned red and he was stunned.

At this time, Wu Yingxiong said: "If the remaining four challengers can also get ten votes, they can enter the play-off round! Who will play first?"

"I'm here to challenge!" A woman with a thick voice stepped forward.

Lin Yu observed intently. Although this woman had a rough voice, she had a very high appearance and was as beautiful as a flower.
