Gentleman's Night Canteen

"It's okay~ It's okay~ Lanmeng allows me to eat one plate every hour, so Jiutiao just eat my portion~"

Facing Kujosara who was a little at a loss, Maomaomon jumped into the opponent's arms and continued to urge him, but Kujosara was even more embarrassed after hearing Maomaomon's words.

"How can that be? This is your thing..."

"It's because it's mine that I want to give Jiutiao and the general a taste~ Lanmeng's snacks~ It's super delicious! Try it~ Try it~~"

Obviously, he always likes to maintain his majesty in front of his subordinates with a straight face, but for some reason, facing Maomaomon's innocent smile like a child, Kujosara felt at a loss and at the same time gradually relaxed.

Kujosara, who couldn't refuse Maomaomon's enthusiasm at all, could only take out a small snack, but secretly made up his mind to make it up for Maomaomon later.

And after discovering that Kujosara had listened to his words, Mao Maoshou was also happy to rub his face against Jiujosara, and the smile on his face became brighter...

Chapter 13 Pan-fried deer steak (3/?)

At this time, Kratos was the only one in the restaurant who was still preparing for battle, but he was not worried about other people in the restaurant. After all, maybe he was not good at communicating with people, but he was already familiar with the smell of conspiracies and tricks, and the viciousness of those despicable people. He could smell the stench even several kilometers away, at least there was no such smell in this restaurant, instead it had a faint sense of warmth... just like his former home.

He was more worried about whether there would be pursuers appearing.

Not only worried about the safety of his son, but also worried about getting innocent people into trouble.

And everyone else except the other person is doing their own thing.

Jiujo Shaluo was urged by Maomaomon to taste the craftsmanship of Lanmeng, but in fact, as Lanmeng's "ace drug tester" Jiujo Shaluo can be said to be the person who is most familiar with Lanmeng cuisine, she is more just not good now Refuse the enthusiasm of cats and beasts;

As for the shadow, it is also rare to leave the extra things behind and silently look at Kujo Saura who is in a hurry because of Maomaomon, as if seeing himself in the other party, but the only difference is that at that time he was walking around on his shoulders. It was Miko who ran around, and she was just playing a prank at that time;

Even Yae Kamito enjoyed his own private space on the second floor.

This restaurant seems to have some strange magic power, which makes all the people who appear here unconsciously calm down.

But Lan Meng, as the master, was fighting in the kitchen at this time.

Because the guests had no special requirements, Lan Meng cooked according to his usual habits.

The venison is not the same as the herbivorous dragon meat usually used in Lanmeng's cooking.

Although herbivorous dragons are not aggressive, they are not small in size. Adult herbivorous dragons can easily catch up with the weight of tanks in terms of tonnage. In order to support their bodies, although most herbivorous dragons look a bit naive, they are actually The meat on them is very tight, so Lan Meng often marinates and beats the meat before processing the meat to help the muscle fibers relax.

This makes the meat more tender and tender.

In contrast, the meat of venison is tender, with more lean meat and less connective tissue. The taste alone is much better than the meat of herbivorous dragons.

But in fact, Lan Meng doesn't eat much. After all, there are mainly two types of deer in the New World, one is the rare elf deer.

The antlers of elf deer that feed on herbs have special medicinal properties. In order to obtain more antlers, hunters usually take the most antlers from elf deer in the wild, but they will not harm their lives. Choosing to dock their tails without harming their lives is normal, because they know that the life force of Yitushalong is just to cut off its tail, which will not be life-threatening. Instead, it can grow another part through its self-healing ability.

In contrast, the number of snow deer is much larger, almost widely distributed in high-altitude areas and near the Yuechen stronghold, but Lanmeng mainly lives in the star stronghold, and there are not many snow deer here, that is, occasionally Hunters who come back from missions will bring some as gifts to everyone in the stronghold.

Lan Meng's luck is good, he was given half a piece of deer steak before,

The biggest difference between snow deer and ordinary deer is the fat.

Snow deer living in cold areas have developed the habit of accumulating fat in order to better adapt to the low temperature environment. At this time, a white layer of fat can even be seen on the decomposed deer steak, but Lan Meng does not. Get rid of it, because this layer of fat is also one of the keys to the delicious snow deer steak.

But before cooking, you need to deal with it first.

The first step is to cut off all the connecting parts.

In fact, this part can also be eaten directly, but Lan Meng chose to remove it for aesthetic reasons, but he didn’t intend to waste it, but used it for soup. Anyway, the essence of the soup is all in the soup, and the bones and meat are not so critical. up.

Adult snow deer can grow to over 1.8 meters and weigh more than a ton. Half a piece of deer steak is a big piece on the chopping board, but Lan Meng, who has long been accustomed to decomposing meat, is very skilled in clasping it with one hand while holding the guard. The kitchen knife given to him by Miyashiro.

In fact, it is best to use a bone-chopping knife to break down this kind of steak. After all, ordinary knives are used to chop bones. [-]% of them have to be rolled, and even one is unlucky and it is broken in half. However, the knife that Emiya Shiro gave him does not exist. This kind of problem.

Although the kitchen knife forged by Emiya Shiro himself does not have gorgeous special effects like enchanted weapons, its sharpness + sturdiness can save Lanmeng a lot of trouble.

The high-raised kitchen knife fell suddenly, and the bones broke with a 'bang'.

Looking at the kitchen knife Lan Meng who didn't have the slightest curly blade in his hand, he couldn't help but nodded silently. I have to say that Emiya Shirou's craftsmanship is really good. Usually, he can't see it when he cuts ordinary meat, but when cutting such a solid thing, he can't help it. Knowing how easy it is to use, the slimmer blade and weight compared to ordinary bone cutting knives coupled with Lan Meng's power far beyond ordinary people doubles its work efficiency.

Remove the excess bones and put them aside to rinse, prepare to fry them first and then take them to make soup, while the remaining steaks are removed one by one and then marinated to remove the fishy smell.

Ordinary people usually use ordinary cooking wine when pickling, but since Lan Meng started making his own wine, he has become accustomed to using his own wine for pickling.

The wood used by Lanmeng to make barbecue is the branches of fruit trees. Using the branches of fruit trees as fuel to roast meat can not only make the meat itself have a hint of fruity aroma, but also can better remove the burnt smell when smoking. Now Lan Meng simply marinates with his own brewed wine. The barbecue meat made by two prongs not only makes the meat more tender, but also seems to have the effect of shortening the marinating time.

This time, when Lan Meng planned to make the 'Fried Deer Steak', he adopted the traditional Western food method, so the wine he chose to marinate is naturally the sherry wine he brewed.

While the purple sherry wine soaks the deer steak thoroughly, Blue Dream pours spices into it.

Sliced ​​ginger, chopped green onion, salt, pepper and fennel...

Several commonly used spices were poured into the marinating basin, and then Lan Meng poured in some starch to make the sherry wine appear cloudy.

In fact, this step is not necessary for general marinating to remove fishy smell, but after all, the deer steak is disassembled in advance and given to yourself, so some starch can be added to remove some impurities.

Taking advantage of the marinating time, Lan Meng started to make soup again. When the soup was almost ready, Lan Meng continued to make her own 'spicy fried deer steak'.

However, unlike normal cooking, Lan Meng didn't use an ordinary pan. Instead, he took out a special rock and put it on the stove to start heating.

When it is almost heated, brush a thin layer of oil, put the chopped onion on the slate and start heating.

Because the onion is chopped very finely, it doesn't take long to see the chopped onion slightly curled and a special fragrance is also diffused...

Chapter 14 Belongs to the Warrior's Eating Phase (4/5)

Onion, an ingredient that Lan Meng likes to use very much.

Not only because it is a high-quality ingredient in itself, but also because onions are very suitable as side dishes, especially with meat ingredients.

The onion itself has a certain deodorizing effect, and the rich nutrients can also make up for the lack of nutrients that meat eaters lack. The most important thing is that the onion oil made by heating the onion has a better taste than the onion made from shallots and green onions. The taste of oil is more mild, and it can also adapt to the taste of most people.

Not only that, whether it is served with minced meat to make onion rings, stewed dishes, or stir-fried, it is very good, and it can almost be said to be a universal ingredient.

Right now, Lan Meng is using it to make scallion oil. The special slate that Lan Meng took out is a special baking pan made of salt rock. Afterwards, there is no need for extra seasoning when frying deer steaks.

Remove all the fried onions, then drain the marinated deer chops and put them directly on the slate.

Originally, there was not much oil on the stone slab, but now the deer steak made a sizzling sound just as it landed on the slate, which was the sound of fat being melted by high temperature.

The fat content of ordinary venison is low, and its most delicate taste is its biggest feature, while the biggest feature of snow deer is its "fat".

It's just that this fat is different from ordinary fat. From the cut deer steak, it can be seen that the fat is not like a snowflake like a steak, but has a layer-by-layer structure similar to a pig.

The fat on the outermost layer is melted at high temperature, and a thin layer of oil is added on the slate, and the fat in the interlayer is also slowly seeped into the meat under high temperature.

The delicate taste of venison itself can be said to be further improved.

Not only that, but Blue Dream didn’t forget to add the last spice———rosemary while frying the deer steak.

The rosemary after frying has a faint smell of burnt wood, but this non-irritating taste not only does not cover the taste of the food itself, but also can better cover the smell of the ingredients themselves, especially suitable for Grill some meat.

In addition, Blue Dream does not intend to continue to use more seasonings.

When the fat on one side had completely shrunk and turned into a dazzling bright milky yellow, Lan Meng turned it over slightly.

Unlike the side that is insulated by fat, this side doesn't take too long, just wait for the fascia and meat on it to change color, then turn it over again, fry both sides for a while, and then Lan Meng is satisfied with the meal. Put it on a plate aside.

This one is for the guest named Kratos, but the other party's son's deer steak blue dream is going to be processed again.

Hold a sliced ​​lemon in your hand and squeeze it gently on top of the slate...

“Zizzi~~”

There was once again a burst of white mist on the stone slab that should have been quiet.

Atomized lemon juice and fat stick to the deer steak. Compared with the deer steak with only salt and rosemary, the taste is two points sweeter, and it should be more suitable for children's taste.

A layer of lettuce has been laid on the snow-white porcelain plate, and then the fried deer steaks are arranged neatly according to the size, and then Lan Meng draws some simple patterns with barbecue sauce, tomato sauce and cheese sauce, to match Serve lettuce and fruit slices, and two nutritionally balanced 'pan-fried deer steaks' are completed.

Not only that, but the broth that shortened the time using the special mechanism of the kitchen was also declared complete.

Generally speaking, it takes several hours to make broth, but in fact, it doesn’t take too much time in the middle, it’s more about waiting, and like boiling broth, baking, etc., no operation is required and only mechanical waiting is required. The cooking steps can save a lot of time by using special kitchen utensils in the restaurant.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting~"

While talking about the long wait, Lan Meng returned to the kitchen with two large dinner plates.

Among the two dinner plates are not only porcelain plates but also two large bowls, which contain freshly boiled venison soup.

In addition to some seasonings, the soup made with deer ribs also added some special fungi that Lan Meng got from that Emrido.

Although the other party does not specialize in cultivating certain ingredients like in the Pokémon Ranch, the cave where the other party lives is located in a special space. It's delicious without any special effects.

By the way, Lan Meng also added some 'healing herbs', a unique healing medicine in that world. The roots are sweeter, and the healing effect is not as good as the herbs produced by the star base, but it is undoubtedly better as an ingredient.

Wouldn't it be nice to have a warm bowl of venison soup with the effect of restoring vitality in a cold environment?

And just as Lan Meng was speaking, Kratos on the other side also noticed Lan Meng.

"Bang~"

Looking at the two large deer steaks in front of him, even Kratos couldn't help swallowing.

Although he used to be a god and enjoyed the sacrifices of mortals, but at that time he hoped that the believers of the God of War would offer blood more than food, and naturally he hadn't tasted any delicious food, let alone before that , as a traditional Spartan warrior, what he ate most before was a kind of food called 'Spartan Black Soup'.

In order to teach the Spartan warriors the truth that 'diet is only a means to victory, not a necessary enjoyment', they made this unpalatable food.

Yes, it is unpalatable, but the 'Spartan Black Soup' made with pork, pig blood, salt and vinegar is definitely a proper dark dish. The taste is mainly salty and sour, but what I have to admit is the meat It provided protein for the Spartan warriors, while pig blood supplemented trace elements such as iron, and the necessity of salt was self-evident. Even the benefits of vinegar, a food material brewed by microorganisms, were at that time It has also been discovered by Spartan warriors.

It can be said to be rich in nutrition, but the taste is extremely bad. At least Lan Meng can make a 'sour pork and pig's blood' with the same ingredients, but it is a pity that Sparta does not want its soldiers to indulge in enjoyment.

After arriving in this world, Kratos has always lived an ordinary hunting life with his wife. The food is roasted or stewed directly. When has he eaten such delicate food?

Even Kratos is like this, let alone Atreus, he is a little hungry, and now the scent keeps getting into his nostrils, and the saliva in his mouth has unconsciously secreted too much, which makes him uncomfortable I can't stop swallowing.

Seeing his son's impatient expression, Kratos also touched the other's head.

"Eat, boy."

With his father's permission, Atreus grabbed a piece of deer excrement and gnawed it.

The deer steak just out of the pan was still a little hot, but this was not a hindrance to the mixed-race Atreus, and even the oozing meat juice made him lick his lips impatiently.

Atreus didn't eat well, but Kratos smiled brightly.

As a descendant of Sparta, so good!

Only when you can eat can you look like a soldier!

It's just that there is a trace of indescribable bitterness in this smile...

Chapter 15 Eat more, boy (5/5)

Looking at his son, Kratos unconsciously thought of his daughter, but unfortunately he might never have the chance to see him again.

But after a short period of sadness, he quickly returned to normal. After all, maybe he was curious about why his father didn't eat such delicious food, so Atreus couldn't help but look up at his father, as if from his son's Seeing the other party's concern in the expression, Kratos also touched the other party's head with a smile, and then also grabbed the deer steak in front of him.

Because of the frying, the fascia on one side of the deer steak also shrank slightly, exposing the stick bone inside, while Kratos pinched the stick bone and bit the meat on it, and then————

"Hula~"

The venison steak was torn off easily after being thoroughly fried, and he directly rolled the meat into his mouth with his tongue and began to chew it.

It is a meaty aroma that is completely different from the burnt smell that is usually baked.

One bite, the fat mixed with the gravy burst out in the mouth. The soft and tender venison not only has no smell at all, but even has a faint fruity aroma.

Even the white fat meat is more tough because most of the fat is fried and eaten, and it is more delicious when chewed.

Not only the fragrant scallion oil made him appetite.

With the first piece of deer steak down, Kratos grabbed the second piece without hesitation, tore off the meat on it without hesitation, and continued to chew.

Should it be said that they are father and son?

Obviously Atreus is a little shy when facing strangers, but the performance of the father and son is almost exactly the same when facing food. The extremely wild eating matches the oil on the beard, which even makes Kratos It looks more exaggerated.

Because of the food intake problem, the deer steak that Blue Dream prepared for Atreus was only about half of that of Kratos, which also led to the fact that even though Kratos ate faster than Atreus, Atreus Finish eating first.

The little stomach that had been deflated because he hadn't eaten for a while unconsciously swelled a lot, but he still couldn't help but look at his father smelling the fragrance in the air.

Perhaps it was because Atreus's line of sight was too direct that Kratos immediately noticed that he was staring at him.

Kratos froze for a moment, then directly grabbed the venison from the plate and put it on the plate in front of Atreus.

"Eat more, boy."

"Father……"

Looking at the deer steak in front of him, Atreus was a little embarrassed, but it was a pity that Kratos waved towards him and picked up the small bowl in front of him without waiting for him to say anything.

Although the deer steak processed by Lanmeng is not greasy, he still couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of white mist after eating the warm and delicious broth.

"Whoo~"

Kratos couldn't help but make a sound of satisfaction, but then he muttered to himself as if he was remembering something.
