A gourmet master who started by visiting restaurants

As soon as I walked to the door of the store, I smelled the aroma of fried food.

Yu Wei saw through the window glass that tofu was being fried inside, and long strips of things were being fried.

Seeing someone coming over, the boss, who was taking a tea break, asked, "What can we eat?"

"No hurry, no rush, I want to ask the boss how long he has been operating here."

The bald boss waved his hand: "Almost 20 years."

"It's been almost 20 years. No wonder some people say you are the ceiling for pig's trotter rice." Yu Wei smiled, then turned to look at the live broadcast room.

"This pig's trotter rice restaurant was recommended by netizens, so I'm going to check it out today!"

With that said, Yu Wei said to the boss: "Give me a portion of whatever you have here."

The boss looked at Yu Wei and Jin Zhe in surprise.

"Young man, there are only two of you, you can't finish the meal." The boss said, shaking his head.

"It's okay, boss. If you can't finish the meal, we'll take it away. The money will be paid."

Seeing what Yu Wei said, the boss thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll give you some of everything. If it's soup, I'll give you some soup."

This shop has an inside and an outside, so Yu Wei sat directly outside.

The boss came over with two bowls of soup.

"Young man, what do you do? What's the point of just taking pictures of pig's feet and rice?"

Seeing the boss chatting about reasons, Jin Zhe also started chatting.

"We are engaged in live broadcasting, which is about eating and drinking. Then the netizens said that your pig's feet are delicious, so they asked us to come over and try it."

The boss suddenly realized, "So that's it. Let me tell you, I'm a local from Longjiang. People who have eaten my pig's trotter rice say it tastes exactly the same."

Of course, Yu Wei and Jin Zhe were only superficially flattering in this self-proclaimed statement.

I haven’t tasted it yet, so I’m not in a hurry to make a rule.

Looking at the soup that was brought to me, I said, "Bitter Melon, Soybean and Pork Ribs Soup is indeed a soup that Chaoshan people like to make."

Yu Wei took a spoonful of it and fished it out from the bottom of the bowl. What he could find were soybeans, bitter gourd chunks and ribs.

"There is something in this soup. Although there are no dried oysters in this bowl of soup, I can definitely taste the taste of dried oysters."

Hearing what Yu Wei said, the boss laughed.

"That's great, young man. There is sand in the oysters after they are washed, so we usually stay apart. As long as you drink the freshness of the dried oysters, it's not bad."

Yu Wei just smiled modestly and did not continue to say anything. He just waited silently for the pig's trotter rice.

Seeing that Yu Wei was a good eater, the boss also served the food himself. He went to the kitchen and came back with two large plates of food, and also packed rice for Yu Wei and the others.

“There are pork thighs, also known as pig’s feet, as well as our signature Four Points of Gold, Guangzhang meat rolls, and fried tofu.”

The two large plates are full of skin and meat. The portions of the two plates are quite large. There is a thick layer of pig's feet on the top and some sauerkraut on the bottom. This is the standard with pig's feet rice.

At the end, hot marinade is poured on it. Not only that, Yu Wei and Jin Zhe's rice is also topped with marinade, because the marinade is easy to eat with rice. Basically, all Longjiang pork trotter rice is done this way.

It's just that ordinary restaurants put rice in the bottom of the bowl, and then put chopped pig's feet and side dishes on top. This restaurant is separate.

[This pig's trotter rice looks great, the fat meat looks like jelly. 】

[This kind of fat meat is the essence of pig trotter rice! It goes into your mouth with just one sip. 】

[Ma Geji, I’m already hungry, why haven’t I gotten off work yet! 】

It's only after four o'clock, and Yu Wei has started live broadcasting, which makes many people who are waiting to catch fish after get off work are gritting their teeth.

Yu Wei noticed that there were people making Guangzhang meat rolls and freshly brewed fried tofu.

"You are all freshly cooked and fried, right?"

"Of course, otherwise how can we call it fresh? People started coming in around 05:30. Now I keep making it and it can be sold until eight or nine o'clock. Some people just buy it as vegetables, so I have to be more prepared." good."

Jin Zhe couldn't help but ask: "So can they all be sold?"

"The pig's feet are basically sold out," the boss said seriously.

Yu Wei looked at the menu and saw that the cheapest pork trotter rice on the menu was actually 20 yuan.

"How many pig's feet are there for 20 yuan a portion?"

The boss took out a plate, then pointed at it and said, "It's full. Even though 20 yuan seems expensive to me, we also make real materials."

Yu Wei smiled and said nothing, and took the lead in attacking the pig's feet.

He picked a piece of fatty meat. The essence of this Longjiang pork trotter rice is actually the layer of skin.

"Look at this layer of fat. When Mr. Jin and I used to eat pig's trotter rice, we liked to eat the fat. Although it is a bit greasy, the taste and texture are really unparalleled."

[Love it, love it, I want to have a bite too, but I’m not in eastern Guangdong. 】

[I can’t eat it, and no one can eat it! Die for me! 】

Yu Wei ate it in one bite, and the smooth and tender oil melted in his mouth, with a rich marinade aroma, which made Yu Wei keep nodding.

I also took two bites of rice.

"I have to say, this is completely different from the pig's trotter rice I had before. The color of the sauce is very dark, but not as salty as I expected. The meat flavor is very strong, thanks to the pot of braised soup. The boss’s braised soup has probably been around since the store opened, right?”

The boss was even more happy when he heard this.

It was indeed a joy to meet a diner who knew how to eat. He smiled while preparing chili sauce and vinegar for Yu Wei and the others.

"It's amazing. My pot of old soup is amazing. I brought it from Longjiang, and then I added things to it. These pig's trotters are all fresh pig's trotters. Otherwise, there would be such a rich meat flavor."

Jin Zhe started eating without saying a word.

"Come on, come on, this is the chili sauce I made myself. Adding this vinegar, it not only relieves fatigue, but also gives you another experience."

The boss even took the initiative to recommend it.

"Okay, okay, I'll do it myself~"

Yu Wei picked up a large piece of fat and thin meat.

"The pig's trotter rice I used to eat was basically thinly sliced, but this one is in pieces, which makes it more satisfying to eat."

After eating this big mouthful of meat, Yu Wei really felt fat.

"Do you know why pig's trotter rice is always served with sauerkraut? Because no matter what, the pig's trotters will definitely be very greasy, so to relieve the greasiness, it is usually served with this refreshing sauerkraut."

Yu Wei took a bite of pickled cabbage.

"The sauerkraut is just ordinary sauerkraut, but I think the boss made it himself. This sauerkraut has a refreshing sour taste and is not so salty."

"Yes, our sauerkraut is all made by ourselves. It is refreshing and not too salty."

"But it's not spicy at all. There's too much water, so it doesn't taste crispy. The pickled cabbage can be fried for a little longer, which will make it crispier."
