Chapter 41 Bird's Nest with Coconut Milk and Rock Sugar
After Lu Yuanling finished speaking, he signaled the butler to arrange the last soup.

The waiter came in with a wooden plate containing two Gu soups, and after serving soup to the two of them one by one, the money was refunded.

As soon as Wei opened the lid, he saw that it was bird's nest with coconut milk and rock sugar.

The bird's nest soup with coconut milk and rock sugar is milky white, with transparent bird's nest and yellow-brown longan meat exposed on the top. The color contrast is very attractive.

Wei Yi picked up a white spoon and lightly scooped up a spoonful of bird's nest, and put it in his mouth. The bird's nest was soft and elastic, the longan meat was soft and slightly sticky, the smell was strong and sweet, and the soup was light and sweet, delicious and delicious.

The bird's nest itself naturally has a sialic acid aroma and a fishy smell similar to egg white. The addition of fresh coconut milk neutralizes the fishy smell, making the overall taste of the bird's nest sublimated unexpectedly.

At the same time, adding rock sugar to stew can make the bird's nest taste more fragrant and sweet.

Crystallized single-crystal rock sugar has high purity and few impurities. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that rock sugar is sweet in taste and mild in nature.

After the meal, a bird's nest with coconut milk and rock sugar is the most suitable dessert.

The bird's nest that can be used for food is actually the nest of swiftlets of the swift family. Although academically, swallows of the swiftlet family are divided into five types, we can classify them into three types based on the nests: official swallows and woolly swallows. And grass swallow, and then according to the shape, it is divided into swallow cup, swallow strips, swallow cake, swallow crushed, swallow silk and so on.

These three types of nests are very easy to identify. Official swallows build their nests purely with saliva, and the fine hairs are only adhered during the nesting process. Therefore, the bird's nests are of high purity and cleanliness, and maintain a complete shape.

Maoyan is that swallows use saliva and body hair to build their nests. The two materials account for half of each, so the bird's nest can only be crushed to make swallow cakes and swallow pieces, and hydrogen peroxide is often used for bleaching during processing.

Grass bird's nest uses weeds as nesting materials, but the weeds are glued together with saliva, so the content of bird's nest is very small, and the processing process also needs to be bleached.

And this bird's nest with coconut milk and rock sugar is made of Guan Yan's bird's nest.

After the two of them finished eating all the Gu Zhong soup, Wei Yi took out two tissues and wiped the corners of his lips and mouth lightly, then began the final comment:

"This bird's nest with coconut milk and rock sugar has added fresh milk."

Lu Yuanling heard the words and looked at the butler. The butler looked through the relevant information about the new dishes in his hand, and nodded towards Lu Yuanling after confirming.

Lu Yuanling admired Wei Yi even more in his heart. After all, he is a professional. He didn't drink it himself and added milk, thinking it was coconut milk.

In fact, this bird's nest with coconut milk and rock sugar is colored with fresh milk.

People who don't know the ingredients, like Lu Yuanling, may mistakenly think that it is made directly from coconut milk.

Coconut milk is made from coconut milk and ground mature coconut meat, the appearance is the same as milk, there is no difference.

Wei nodded a little and continued to comment: "Here is a popular knowledge point, you can't add rock sugar when boiling milk."

"Milk contains lysine, and rock sugar contains fructose, and these two substances will form a combination of fructosyl lysine at high temperatures."

"This substance is not easily digested and absorbed by the human body, and will destroy the nutritional value of protein. More importantly, it has certain toxicity to the human body. After eating, symptoms such as gastrointestinal discomfort, vomiting, and diarrhea may occur, which will affect health."

"The amount of milk added to this soup is not much, and the impact is not great, but from a nutritional point of view, my suggestion is that it is best not to use this soup."

Lu Yuanling stared at Wei Yi with burning eyes, his heart was greatly shocked.

Unexpectedly, Wei Yishen, a gourmet who has just debuted for a month, has such unique insights into nutrition research, which is really commendable.

Lu Yuanling didn't stay in a daze for a long time, he nodded in time and said, "Well, this is a hidden danger of food safety. It would be more appropriate not to go up."

The butler recorded Wei Yi's comments and suggestions, as well as Lu Yuanling's final remarks, and will give feedback to the executive chef later for further improvement.

Today's dish test is successfully concluded.

The way the housekeeper looked at Wei Yi changed slightly.

At first, everyone thought that he was just a gourmand who cheated on food and drink that the boss found out from nowhere.

After all, Wei Yi is easily underestimated due to his age.

The good professionalism made the housekeepers and waiters not show contempt, but kept them hidden in their hearts.

All the face-slapping plots that didn't happen.

The young Wei Yi, with his professional food appreciation ability, can easily convince those who despise him.

How young and promising!
This is the voice of everyone present.

After all the service teams left the box, Lu Yuanling sincerely praised: "Wei Yi, your tasting today once again made me feel admiration from the bottom of my heart."

"Thank you, Brother Lu, I still have a long way to go in the future." Wei Yi looked humble.

"You have surpassed countless people now, and you still maintain such a humble attitude. It's really rare." Lu Yuanling admired Wei Yi from the bottom of his heart.

"Brother Lu, stop praising me, I'm afraid I'll be cocky."

"Hahaha, okay, let's talk about something else."

Lu Yuanling laughed heartily, he was really lucky to meet such a capable gourmet as Wei Yi.

Appreciation is appreciation, and the remuneration that should be paid must be cashed in time. Lu Yuanling went straight to the point and said: "Wei Yi, please leave your bank account, and I will ask the cashier to settle the cost of today's food tasting as soon as possible." for you."

Wei Yi was taken aback for a moment. Before Lu Yuanling invited him over, he never mentioned that he would pay him.

Wei Yi didn't know that he would be paid.

Although he was a little confused at the moment, Wei Yi didn't want to make money in this way from the very beginning.

In his opinion, this is similar to the nature of visiting a store. He will not charge any fees for visiting a store, and similarly, he will not charge Lu Yuanling any fees for trying dishes.

Still the same sentence, Wei Yi does not want any interest relationship to be involved in the delicacy.

Therefore, Wei Yi immediately declined politely: "Brother Lu, I accept your wish, but I don't need to charge for trying dishes. We are friends, and I just help you try dishes within my ability, so don't ask for money." It's over."

Lu Yuanling has been in shopping malls for a long time, and has an extraordinary ability to observe words and emotions.

From Wei Yi's sincere eyes, it can be seen that what he said is true, and there is no falsehood.

He really doesn't charge money!
The reason for not charging money is to treat yourself as a friend!

They are real friends, not the kind of wine and meat friends!
Thinking of this, a warm current suddenly surged deep in Lu Yuanling's heart, swimming all over his body, all limbs and bones were wrapped in warm current.

what happened?

I have never been an emotional person, but today I was moved by a brat?
This unscientific!
