Chapter 439

Jiang An and Xie Ying are full of bitterness. A vivid shape of cold shrimp has made their expectations of Lao Zhou much lower. In their opinion, this means of ancient struggle is good to say that it is fairy art and magic, but it really shouldn't be cooking!

"Is this really cooking?"

Lao Zhou looked at the cold shrimp in Gu Zheng and murmured. He was really hit.

"Of course, it's cooking! Can you say that using inner strength in cooking food is not a part of cooking? Don't be too shocked. If you can't even make a simple shape, there will be no magic in magic."

Gu Zheng didn't raise his head. He was still busy with the next step of making cold shrimp.

The soup of cold shrimp is the key. Cold shrimp without soup is equivalent to no soul.

The cold shrimp soup used by Lao Zhou is a more creative secret sour plum soup. The soup used by Gu Zheng is naturally not the same as his.

The awning was originally built under the coconut tree, and there were some big coconuts in the awning.

Turning over in the coconut pile, Gu Zheng held the valued coconut in his hand and shook it back and forth.

The coconut is ripe, but it hasn't reached the ripe level that Gu Zheng wants! The kind of ripeness Gu Zheng wants will make the aroma of coconut milk and coconut meat more charming, but the coconut milk will be sour in the taste.

For ordinary people, the acid of coconut milk is very bad, but for Gu Zheng, it's not a thing at all!

"How can you solve the problem that coconut juice is sour when you use the wooden formula to ripen coconut?" Qi Ling asked.

"It's easy to solve sour. Do you want to listen to basic methods or advanced methods?" Gu Zheng's smile is very confident.

"What is the basic method? What is the advanced method?" the tool spirit asked again.

"The basic method is to gather the sour substances together by controlling the water and then discard them. As for the advanced method, I have now understood the way of diet, and my understanding of food materials has reached a terrible level! With sufficient understanding, many changes can be produced. I can change the acid that originally affected the taste into a way to optimize the taste by controlling the wood formula Sweet! "

"Good!"

Gu Zheng said the second method, let the instrument spirit sincerely praise.

In the picture in her mind, the little pepper like spirit looked very excited. She held out her thumb to Gu Zheng: "Tao gives birth to one, life two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things. Gu Zheng makes me proud!"

The coconut in Gu Zheng's hand has been ripened to the degree he wants. When he opens the hard shell of the coconut, a charming coconut fragrance suddenly diffuses.

Smelling the fragrance of coconut, Jiang An, who was already sweating, finally showed a little smile on her face.

Jiang An and his father have used this method to make cold shrimp soup with coconut juice for a long time, but the final choice for cold shrimp soup is today's Secret plum soup. Why? This is because the soup made of coconut juice is not as good as honey sour plum soup. What's more, the coconut juice used in ancient times is still sour!

Put the diced coconut meat into a bowl for standby. After Gu Zheng poured the coconut milk into the pot, he put some of the boiled rice milk in it, then covered the pot and put his hands on the pot.

Rice milk is originally a versatile ingredient. Gu Zheng will use rice milk in cold shrimp soup, but he doesn't think the taste of coconut milk is mellow enough. Although the current rice milk is not boiled by Xianmi, there is the technology of boiling rice milk, and the hundred tower effect of rice milk still exists.

Seeing that the rice milk would become, Gu Zheng picked up a candied fruit and threw it into the pot.

The original smile on Jiang An's face became stronger because of the ancient dispute.

Old Zhou's cold shrimps use minced preserves. Why use minced preserves instead of complete preserves like Gu Zheng?

First of all, candied fruit is a very sweet thing. Broken candied fruit can reduce the sweet taste by reducing the weight and make the "taste" more harmonious.

Secondly, minced preserved fruit is also a good match for cold shrimp. After all, a large preserved fruit placed in a bowl of cold shrimp will give the food a "color" and create a sense of disharmony.

In addition, it is best to put the minced preserves in front of the cold shrimp on the table, so that the taste of the preserves will not spread into the soup, nor will it affect the taste of the preserves, and it can also make the taste of the whole bowl of cold shrimp more hierarchical.

Now the whole preserved fruit put down by Gu Zheng is made of "black plum fruit", which is larger than the cold shrimp he makes. Put the candied fruit in the pot, the candied fruit is bound to expand and the taste is bound to spread! What's more, although the "black plum fruit" is delicious, it also fades very badly. Jiang An can't imagine what the bowl of cold shrimp that Gu Zheng will look like.

Jiang An's accident happened again. The ancient struggle that threw the "dark plum fruit" into the soup unexpectedly poured all the cold shrimp and spare coconut meat into the pot, and at the same time, lost a whole preserver in it!

"Crazy! Is this the so-called broken jar?"

Jiang An murmured in his heart that he couldn't imagine how bad the preserved fruit would taste.

Gu Zheng, who had put his hands on the pot, opened the lid of the pot, and for a time, rich water vapor floated from the pot.

Gu Zheng's technique was very fast. They just vaguely saw that the hot things in the pot were poured into the prepared bowl by Gu Zheng, and the bowl was covered.

"What are you doing?" Xie Yingning said with an eyebrow.

"No, I don't want you to see what it looks like before I serve it. Why, is this a violation? Is it difficult because you don't see it clearly? I have to demonstrate every detail carefully?"

Gu Zheng's expression is plain. He holds the bowl of cold shrimp with both hands, and water control is still playing a role in it.

"Hum, play tricks. You'll know whether your cooking is delicious or not when you get on the table." Jiang An sneered.

"Yes, no matter how fancy it is, it's useless if it tastes bad." Xie Ying smiled and said nothing more.

"Gu Zheng, I explored Xie Ying's body a little. This boy is really different!"

The sound of the spirit suddenly sounded in Gu Zheng's mind.

"Why is it different?" Gu Zheng asked.

"As for how it's different, you'll know then. Just wait and see a good play!" Qi Ling sold it for a while and then smiled coldly: "when you want to compete fairly with others in cooking, I don't allow anyone to cheat!"

Gu Zheng thought, and a picture of the spirit of the instrument appeared in his mind. The little girl was sitting on a stone with her legs crossed. Don't mention how sinister the smile on her face was.

No longer caring about the trickster spirit, Gu Zheng looked down the mountain and saw that the two climbers were close to the top of the mountain. Judging from their dressing style, they should belong to another disciple of Tianluo sect.

Seeing Gu Zhengwang looking down the mountain, elder Gao immediately said, "the two people who are going up the mountain now belong to the disciples of lvtianluo sect. The person in front is also the candidate to enter the 'Tianluo cave' this time. His name is Su Hong."

"What are you whispering? If you have anything to say, you can't talk to each other after the referee goes up the mountain." Xie Ying's yin-yang strange way.

"Don't worry, I know the rules!" Gao Changlao returned to Xie Ying unhappily, and then looked worried: "although the eleven branches of Tianluo sect are like enemies, in the past two years, the green Tianluo sect and the Yellow Tianluo sect have been closer!"

Elder Gao's words made Gu Zheng frown slightly. After all, Xie Ying is a disciple of huangtianluo sect.

"Younger martial brother Xie, what a coincidence. I didn't expect you to be on the top of the mountain!"

Su Hong greeted Xie Ying from a distance.

"What a coincidence!"

Xie Ying smiled and didn't say much.

However, Su Hong's eyebrows were slightly wrinkled. The slightly depressed atmosphere around him and the people's attention made him feel a little strange.

Su Hong didn't ask much. He found a table and sat down. He shouted to the shed, "old Zhou, two bowls of cold shrimp!"

"OK!"

Lao Zhou's response was the same as before. He soon brought three bowls of cold shrimp.

"You're lucky. Today I made a new kind of cold shrimp. Try it to see whether the original cold shrimp is delicious or the newly made cold shrimp is delicious!"

Lao Zhou sent his cold shrimp and the cold shrimp made by Gu Zheng to Su Hong, who was the first to go up the mountain.

"Mr. Zhou also innovated cold shrimp? It's really good! But I think your signature cold shrimp is very delicious."

Su Hong smiled and opened the lid on Gu Zheng's bowl of cold shrimp. His eyes suddenly widened.

"This, this,"

Su Hong stammered. As for Xie Ying, Jiang An and others, his face was full of shock.

"Is this really cold shrimp?"

"Isn't this really cold shrimp?"

"Is this a picture?"

Su Hong murmured to himself, and the spoon he picked up refused to fall.

The cold shrimp in the bowl didn't put ice, but it was cold. On the whole, it really looked like a picture.

Different from the traditional cold shrimp, half of the cold shrimp made by Gu Zheng is paste, and the color is divided into two kinds.

The pure white cold shrimps are close to each other on one side of the bowl, with a black 'plum fruit' embedded in it.

On the other side of the bowl is a black paste, which is also the soup of cold shrimp. It is boiled with rice milk and coconut milk, and then dyed with "black plum fruit". On the paste, a white preserved "jade cherry" is embedded.

"Mr. Zhou, do you really want me to eat this bowl of cold shrimp like tai chi?"

Su Hong did not dare and could not bear to start. For the first time in his life, he had a feeling similar to worship and awe for a kind of food. Also because of this unique bowl of cold shrimp, his title to Lao Zhou changed from 'you' to 'you'!

"Eat!"

Lao Zhou's expression is extremely complex, with shock, excitement and loss.

"Good!"

Su Hong answered, as if he had made up his mind. He stretched out his spoon to dig cold shrimp, but his eyes widened again.

The original part of the paste changes under the influence of temperature and is completely transformed into soup in almost three breath time.

The solidified color is black. After turning into soup, it turns into dark purple. The cold shrimps originally crowded together are scattered, and the diced coconut meat under the cold shrimps is also floating.

The change of cold shrimp is entirely due to the power of the "true water" that Gu Zheng left in the bowl.

The power of "Benming real water" only plays a role in cooling. Time is well calculated by the ancient times. Almost when Su Hong opened the bowl, the power of "Benming real water" began to subside naturally.

This moment's delay, without the continuous cooling of "Benming real water", the original paste naturally melted and restored the "shrimp water fusion" that cold shrimp should have.

"Awesome! I don't know what to say anymore. This, this should be the work of a master!"

Su Hong extended his thumb to Lao Zhou. His eyes were full of worship. He was not surprised that the paste melted at the right time. After all, the internal strength of cold attribute can also do this, but it only needs to calculate the time well.

"What a wonderful enjoyment!"

With a mouthful of cold shrimp, Su Hong's face was full of amazement while sighing.

Seeing Su Hong like this, Xie Ying's last fantasy was disillusioned. He frowned and implemented the alternative plan.

"Don't be surprised, senior brother su. I'm Xie Ying! When you eat this bowl of cold shrimp later, you'll eat another bowl of cold shrimp. Then you'll tell Lao Zhou that although the newly made cold shrimp is good, you still like the original cold shrimp. You think the original cold shrimp is the best. As long as you say so, I'll be very grateful today!"

It was originally a means that could be used in the period of transforming God. It was used before the ancient dispute because of the help of the spirit. But now, Xie Ying in the later stage of the third floor can use enough to transmit sound into the secret. His spiritual strength is different from ordinary people, which is enough to make him worthy of the identity of the elite of the huangtianluo sect.

It is Xie Ying who dares to bet with Gu that she can transmit the sound into the secret! But what Xie Ying didn't know was that his voice clearly appeared in Gu Zheng's mind from the moment he began to transmit the sound into the secret.

"What's going on?" Gu Zheng asked.

"It's just a little trick! Fortunately, his cultivation is too low and the distance is so close. Otherwise, although I can eavesdrop on the content of the transmission, it's impossible to transfer the transmission completely." Qi Ling said proudly.

"What do you mean? You mean Su Hong didn't hear the original transmission to Su Hong?" Gu Zheng smiled in his heart.

"Yes, only the two of us heard." Qi Ling also smiled.

A bowl of cold shrimp was soon eaten up by Su Hong. When he put down the bowl, Su Hong's face was full of meaning.

"Old Zhou, this cold shrimp is really delicious!"

"I never knew that coconut milk and coconut meat are a perfect match for cold shrimp! Have you processed this coconut milk? Is there anything added? Why does it taste so mellow and sweet?"

"Apart from this ingenious soup, the cold shrimp tastes so smooth and delicious! By the way, how long did you spend making the cold shrimp? It's like small dumplings with holes in the stomach, but there's no contamination on the appearance! However, it's a small cold shrimp, not a big dumpling! How do you always do this? It's estimated that you put it in the cold shrimp It will take you a lot of time to put the noodles in? "

"Also, it's hard for you to be old. You made the cold shrimp into a shrimp. It's really fun and interesting!"

A bowl of cold shrimps made Su Hong feel like a child's new year. He was only interested in expressing his feelings and completely ignored Lao Zhou's twitching face.

Finally, Su Hong's emotion was over. He looked at old Zhou with pleading eyes: "old Zhou, give me another bowl of the new cold shrimp?"

"Old Zhou, give me a bowl, too!"

The people walking with Su Hong also spoke in a hurry. Originally he ate very delicious, but when Su Hong ate, he was completely attracted by curiosity and forgot to move his mouth! In Su Hong's feast, he felt a taste of supreme delicacy! Now that Su Hong has finished eating, he doesn't want to eat the mediocre cold shrimp in his own bowl.

Lao Zhou's mouth twitched. He squeezed out two words: "No."

Lao Zhou is a willing gambler. As long as Gu Zhengzhen does better than him, even if Jiang An loses, he won't feel too sorry. But even a person who is willing to gamble and admit defeat can't stand such praise from others. This praise is more painful than direct irony.

"Well, what a pity." Su Hong sighed.

"Elder martial brother Su, don't forget, Mr. Zhou asked you to taste it and see what kind of cold shrimp is better!"

Xie Ying, who was sweating, couldn't help saying something against the rules.

During Su Hong's taste of cold shrimp, Xie Ying spoke to Su Hong more than once, but the other party just turned a deaf ear.

"Would you like a bowl of cold shrimp, too?"

Meow, who had been very quiet, did not know when he had appeared next to Xie Ying. His small hand seemed to be placed on Xie Ying's arm at will. Xie Ying immediately found that he had lost his ability to speak and could not even blink his eyelids.

Su Hong frowned. He thought the atmosphere around him was strange. He suddenly woke up from the shock brought by the cold shrimp. He frowned and looked at the bowl of cold shrimp made by Lao Zhou in front of him, as if his eyes were attracted, and he was stunned.

"Xie Ying is really hateful. A hint from him may change things!" the tool spirit hated.

"It's very likely that Su Hong is also an elite disciple. The atmosphere at the scene is inevitably a little strange. It's not surprising that he will think more. However, Xie Ying has broken the rules. No matter what Su Hong's final answer is, Xie Ying and them are the losers. But I won't let him go easily." Gu Zheng said faintly.

"Yes, don't let him go easily!" Qi Ling sneered.

The crowd didn't wait too long. The sound of a spoon across the soup bowl sounded. Su Hong scooped a spoonful of cold shrimp into his mouth.

When tasting the cold shrimp, Su Hong's expression on his face was very dignified. He took a bite of the cold shrimp and put down the spoon.

"Mr. Zhou, this bowl of cold shrimp is more delicious than you used to make, but compared with 'Taiji cold shrimp', there is no comparability at all!" Su Hong said with a wry smile.

"Hoo..."

"Plop!"

"Hey!"

For a moment, someone breathed, someone sat on the bench, and someone sighed.

"Well, the gambling is over now. Do you have anything to say?"

Even if the gamblers don't want to hear it anymore, the voice of ancient struggle still rings out.

"Uncle Zhou?"

Jiang An looks at Lao Zhou with a sad face.

"Losing is losing. There's nothing to say! In fact, we should have been able to guess the outcome when we saw the ancient leader making cold shrimp. It's unwilling, it's a fluke!" Lao Zhou said with emotion.

Jiang An didn't say much. Although there were many bets, he couldn't compare with the loss in his heart. In the mouth of a third party, the proud family cold shrimp was not comparable with the cold shrimp made by Gu. This blow was too heavy for him to bear for a moment.

Put the bet on Gu Zheng's table. Jiang An took the disciples of heitianluo sect and left directly.

"Where's yours?"

Gu Zheng's eyes were cold and stared into Xie Ying's eyes.
