The pig hair had been cleaned and the meat was put directly into the pot with cold water. Some spices to remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor were added, and the meat was cooked in the pot while I made the sauce.

Crush a few cloves of garlic, chop them into minced garlic, add some soy sauce, vinegar, salt, sugar, and some chili and mix them together.

Seeing some peppercorns nearby, he took some and put them in a mortar, crushed them into powder, and added them to the seasoning.

At that time, we just put whatever was available at home, and it was not as complete as here.

Even though this is where the owner's family lives, the seasonings in the kitchen are no less than those in the restaurant.

Besides, this place is very clean. I guess Manager Wang’s wife is also a person who likes to be clean and put effort into her food.

Pick up the bowl of sauce and the aroma will penetrate your nose without you having to take a deep breath.

It’s spicy, fresh and fragrant, with a hint of sour vinegar, which makes your mouth water.

I quickly put down the sauce. I was already a little hungry, and eating something so fragrant was really tempting.

Since it is sold to a restaurant, you can’t be as casual as cooking for yourself. You have to pay attention to the color, aroma and taste.

The dishes need to be arranged more beautifully and the price can be raised a bit.

I picked a round plate with fine blue and white patterns on the edge, cut some cucumber shreds as a base, and spread it in a circle. It not only looks good but also tastes less greasy.

The moisture in the room rises rapidly. Open the doors and windows to let the annoying humidity and heat dissipate.

Shopkeeper Wang had instructed his family not to get close to Ni'er when she was cooking.

But the aroma was so alluring that the children all looked eagerly towards the kitchen, wondering what delicious food was being made there.

Even though my father runs a restaurant and I've eaten a lot of good food since I was a child, I've rarely smelled such fragrance.

Shopkeeper Wang's wife held the children back and prevented them from going out and causing trouble for others.

I calculated the time and felt it was about right. I picked up the chopsticks and inserted them into the meat. It went in right away. The timing was just right.

Take out the meat, put some cold water just drawn from the well in a basin, and put the meat directly in. This will cool it down quickly and make the meat firmer and more chewy.

Wait until the meat is completely cool, take it out and place it on the chopping board, cutting it into slices of even size, thickness and thickness.

Spread it in circles on the cucumber shreds. This step alone will give you a great color and taste.

Crystal clear slices of meat lie on the emerald green cucumber shreds. The rich aroma of meat mixed with the fresh fragrance of cucumber is a perfect match.

Then stir the sauce, pour it on top, sprinkle some chopped green onions and sesame seeds. The red and green colors are more eye-catching than the most colorful flowers in summer.

I brought the plate closer with my eyes closed and smelled it. It was indeed more delicious than the last time I made it.

Shopkeeper Wang's children knew that they should not disturb others, so they secretly ran over and acted coquettishly with their father.

"Dad, there is a sister in our kitchen. The food she cooks smells so good that it makes my mouth water."

Looking at those little greedy cats, looking so anxious, I will let them have a taste of the prepared dishes later.

Ni'er and the third brother cleaned the kitchen and brought out the dishes.

Manager Wang was already waiting at the door to greet us. We entered through the back door of the restaurant to avoid being seen by other customers and being rushed to eat.

It is a busy time now and the people working in the kitchen cannot all leave, so they have to come out one by one to try the dishes.

After eating Ni'er's garlic pork, everyone was stunned. How could someone make such delicious food?

Manager Wang found their reaction a bit strange. They were all old friends in the restaurant, so why did they still look so inexperienced?

Although the previous dish was indeed amazing, it was not so delicious that it would make people stunned.

Several children stared at the dish eagerly, and they had to wait until the uncles and aunts in the restaurant finished eating before it could be their turn.

Shopkeeper Wang didn't believe it, so he picked up a piece of meat and wrapped it with a few cucumber shreds. A few drops of the sauce dripped onto the plate.

I didn't have time to take a closer look. I just wanted to stuff it into my mouth quickly to prevent the sauce from falling out.

The moment I took a bite, I was stunned and no longer doubted how delicious it was.

The spices bring out the aroma of the meat, which doesn’t taste fishy at all. Because it has been rinsed with cold water, the meat is tender and elastic.

The cucumber shreds neutralize the extra greasiness, and the sauce is the finishing touch.

It’s sour and spicy with a hint of garlic, and the salty and sweet flavors are so rich that they leave you with an endless aftertaste.

Moreover, as the weather is getting hotter, this kind of refreshing food that can stimulate people's appetite will definitely be very popular.

Ni'er and Lao San looked at Manager Wang's calm expression and felt a little nervous. Could it be that the dish was not delicious?

After a moment's silence, the others all looked like they were enjoying it, but he had this expression. The two looked at each other and saw each other's worry that they might not be able to sell it at a good price.

Little did he know that he was so shocked by the dish that he couldn't recover for a long time, and even when the children called him, he didn't respond.

"Daddy, is it delicious? Let me try it~"

"I want to try it too~"

The children grabbed his sleeves and shook him vigorously, and he finally came to his senses.

The waiter rushed in in a panic, stumbling over his words, "Boss... Boss..."

The waiter had worked in the restaurant for a long time and could handle most situations. He didn't hear any noise outside, so he quickly asked, "What happened?"

The waiter's hands were clenched with the tablecloth, which he kept pinching. His hands became wrinkled and his brows were knitted together. "County Magistrate..."

When Shopkeeper Wang heard the word "county magistrate", he suddenly became nervous and stood up immediately. Could something big have happened?

The restaurant has always been operating with integrity and has never taken advantage of its size to bully customers, shortchange customers on weights or measures, or sold inferior goods as good ones.

He held the waiter's shoulders and shook him vigorously. He couldn't speak loudly when it came to the county magistrate, or someone would hear him and make a fuss about it. He lowered his voice and asked, "Tell me what happened to the county magistrate?"

Xiao Er felt his shoulders being pinched and his face was sore. “Eat…eat.”

County magistrate, dinner. Shopkeeper Wang went over these two words in his mind, not sure. "The county magistrate is coming to our place for dinner?"

The waiter nodded hurriedly.

Shopkeeper Wang sighed. What should he do when the waiter gets nervous when he sees an official? Then he thought, not to mention him, he himself is also quite nervous.

He ordered the waiter, "Take the children to the back and give them to their mother."

Although I was reluctant to leave and hadn't had the chance to eat the dish of pork with mashed garlic, I still had to listen to my father.

I'm not sure what a county magistrate is, but from the looks of it he should be a high-ranking official, otherwise dad wouldn't be so nervous. I'd better go back first and don't make things difficult for dad.

The food will surely be eaten later. The children looked at the half-left plate of food reluctantly, smacked their lips, and left under the guidance of the waiter.

Ni'er and Lao San didn't know what to do. The vegetables hadn't been sold yet, and they couldn't just leave, so they simply sat down and thought about waiting for Manager Wang.
