Yunding Ranch

Chapter 211 Magical Charm
Ronald is like a child, staring at his beloved "toy".

That rapt look really made people laugh, Lily leaned close to Song Lingyi's ear, and said with a chuckle, "Trust me, he will like it. Man, it's always like this." The joking tone made Song Lingyi chuckle , glanced at Lu Huaijin out of the corner of his eye, there was no need for words, Lily immediately understood, and the two of them laughed at the same time.

Lu Huaijin noticed her gaze and turned her head to look over, but she didn't understand what happened at all.The bewildered expression made Lili and Song Lingyi smile even brighter.

Randy stretched out his chopsticks to rummage in the red pot, and accidentally touched the colander, and then Ronald immediately stared at Randy with rounded eyes.

Randy didn't need to look at each other at all, he could feel the scorching gaze, his muscles stiffened, and he slowly raised his head to look at Ronald, those deep eyes projected motionlessly, as if " Darth Vader in Star Wars.Randy immediately raised his hands, proving his innocence.

After watching Randy's chopsticks leave the red pot, Ronald looked away, ignored Randy, and continued to focus on the red pot in front of him.

"Okay, otherwise the meat will get old." Brandon's reminder sounded from the side, Ronald quickly took out the colander, put it in his own bowl, dipped in the dipping sauce, couldn't help it He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and impatiently stuffed the sliced ​​meat into his mouth.

Ronald lowered his eyes and tasted it carefully, but before he had time to chew, he swallowed the whole piece of meat. The tenderness and juiciness of the meat and the aroma and stimulation of the sauce made his saliva secrete in big mouthfuls. He took a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth.One piece after another, it seemed that he couldn't stop at all. By the time he realized it, the bowl was already empty.

Ronald put his eyes on the white pot again, took out two slices of lettuce, put them in the bowl, rolled up a big mouthful of sauce, stuffed it into his mouth in one breath, and sighed involuntarily in his throat, " Um!"

Raising his eyes, Ronald saw Lu Li standing diagonally opposite him. He realized that his wolfing down had been seen, which made him a little embarrassed, but it was only for a moment, and he regained his composure— —The so-called calm refers to admitting his mistakes, not to calming down his emotions. He is still extremely excited at this moment, and to be precise, he is even more excited than before.

"Fourteen, what's going on here?" Ronald looked seriously at the sauce in his hand, then at the red pot and white pot in front of him, "This is not at all the same as the hot pot I ate before. It's not the same. The taste is too strange, I don't know how to describe it..." Ronald thought for a moment, "To be honest, the characteristics of this thing are not so obvious, at least not as bright as boiled live fish, but... but……"

The boiled live fish is cooked by yourself, while the hot pot in front of you is made with frozen hot pot ingredients.The real top hot pot is also a handmade product.

"But it's very unique." This was the only thing Ronald wanted, "Actually, I don't like it, I still don't like it, red pot is too spicy and too numb for me, The taste is even a little strange. But, I can't stop, I can't stop at all."

"I can only tell you that this is the United States, and the Chinese food you eat has been improved. It is undeniable that our appetites are very different, and you must be improved before you can adapt. It seems that many Western dishes have entered China. After the country, we will still need to make improvements." At this moment, Lu Li finally had time to explain to Ronald.

Lu Li looked at Ronald who was sweating profusely in front of him, and couldn't help laughing. There is nothing happier than his Amway winning the approval of his friends, "However, among the many improved dishes, hot pot is the only one. Failed works, or dishes that cannot be improved."

Lu Li had tasted different styles of hot pot, but he had to admit that the improved hot pot was no longer the original flavor, and it was no longer "hot pot" after all.

Ronald nodded half-understood, but his eyes flashed with excitement, "This is really different from the hot pot I have eaten before, completely different, it is basically two kinds of food." At that time, the sweat was dripping down in big drops. The combination of midsummer July and scorching hot pot is absolutely amazing, but Ronald didn't care at all, and his attention was completely on the hot pot, "There is also white pot, white pot It's funny, it doesn't taste very special, but the lettuce is really delicious, why? Why is it like this?"

Ronald is an honest person, he speaks straight, and if he doesn’t like it, he doesn’t like it, but after realizing his mistake, he didn’t continue to struggle, and readily admitted it, and expressed his true inner feelings—that’s him He loves hot pot, even while talking, he couldn’t help but pick up squid slices and throw them into the red pot with his chopsticks. At the same time, he picked up a piece of spinach and stuffed it into his mouth, just like storing food hamster.

Lu Li noticed that everyone was looking at him, as if everyone was curious about the same question - the question that Ronald just asked.

This is different from other dishes.Every dish has a certain way of cooking, and there are even secret sauces and the like; but there is no hot pot, it looks like a big pot, and then the food is thrown into the heat. If the red pot is still a bit complicated, Then the white pot is not so mysterious. This kind of cooking method seems too simple, but the effect it presents is so good, which makes people puzzled.

Lu Li couldn't help laughing, turned his head to look at Li Huainan, and looked for help. He is not a professional chef, how can he answer such a professional question? "Uncle Li?"

Unexpectedly, Li Huainan just shrugged his shoulders, with an innocent expression on his face, "I came here on a special trip today to eat and drink. I haven't eaten hot pot for several years." expert.

Liu Xiaoyan complained bluntly, "Your Uncle Li is just an amateur player. He can cook home-cooked food well, but if he wants to organize banquets, he can't stand it." This made the others laugh out loud.

Lu Li looked at Ronald again, and spread his hands, "I guess, because it's a hot pot, that's why."

Such a simple and rude answer caused everyone to laugh, but Justin nodded and thought about it carefully, "I think it makes sense."

Then Finley also echoed, "Yes, other than that, is there any better explanation? It's like the dishes that Fourteen made before."

"Who cares? It's good as long as it's delicious." Tony raised his voice and immediately put his chopsticks into the red pot, picked up two large slices of cabbage, stuffed them into his mouth and took a big bite, then grinned, "Wheeze , Huchi, hot, hot, hot..." While shouting "spicy", he couldn't stop his movements.

"Yes! Yes! This is the most important thing!" Randy responded again and again, "Come on, let me eat a piece of beef first to show my respect." After speaking, Randy reached into the red pot and found a piece The mutton was thrown into the mouth, but Chloe yelled, "Hey, that's mine! Damn it!"

Everyone became lively again, looking for their favorite food, twittering and bustling to fight for it.

"Fourteen, can tofu be boiled too?" After letting go of his stereotypes, Ronald once again transformed into a curious baby, becoming very interested in every ingredient Lu Li prepared.

In the past two years, with the rise of the health trend, soy products have received more and more attention.Americans hardly ate tofu at first, but with the popularity of Japanese and Chinese cuisine, people gradually became familiar with tofu.However, here, they are more likely to fry the tofu and rarely put it in the soup.

In front of Lu Li, there was only a small plate of tofu, which was only about the size of a palm, and it was only seven or eight yuan. This was an extremely precious ingredient brought by Li Huainan.

"Of course." Lu Li picked up a small piece of tofu and put it in the red pot, "This is one of my favorite hot pot ingredients." Of course, he doesn't force things like hairy tripe, yuba, taro, etc. Well, in a foreign country, don't be too greedy.

"You can taste it. This is not Japanese tofu. It has a firmer texture and the taste of the hot pot is easier to penetrate." Lu Li looked at the gurgling hot pot in front of him, feeling satisfied for a while.

"Also, there are radish slices, can radishes be eaten too?" "What about that? What is that?" "Do you think the kale tastes as good after being blanched?" "I want to try it !" "I want to change the chili sauce? How does it feel to add minced green onion?" "I just tried soy sauce. This is the first time I have tried soy sauce outside of sushi. It's really good!" " Hey, hey, the beef is almost gone!"...

The voice of everyone's discussion became lively again, everyone stood around the dining table, no one sat down, to be precise, there was no space for everyone to sit down, but no one cared, stood up excitedly, walked around at any time, The first time you reach for your favorite ingredients, or go to the side to replace the new dipping sauce, the scene is exhilarating.

Originally, Lu Li was worried that the ingredients prepared today were really too much—it seemed inexhaustible thanks to the fresh vegetables that had just been harvested, but it turned out that he was thinking too much That's right, the fighting power of this group of people is simply beyond the charts. From 10 o'clock to 30:[-], the big pot of beef bone soup is almost two-thirds gone. It's terrible!

It's like going to a cafeteria, and you always feel that you are at a loss if you don't eat enough. Obviously your stomach is full, but your mouth is not full. You keep eating one after another, and you can't put your chopsticks down.Lu Li couldn't help teasing, "After tonight, everyone's chopsticks are straight up."

Halfway through the meal, Lu Huaijin and Xiao En lost in the box-to-ball game and went to the kitchen to wash the vegetables for another round, which was enough to feed everyone.Looking at the two hot pots that changed color, a feeling of contentment surged in his chest.

"Fourteen? Fourteen? Tell me, if this soup is mixed with rice, what would it taste like?"

"...Uh, the taste of ecstasy/soul?"
