"Haw-haw. My Spicy Hotpot Soup Soaked Rice finally has a solution." With an excited expression, Wuhai picked up the spoon and prepared to scoop the soup.
"You want to soak the rice in the hotpot soup?" A customer beside him asked in disbelief.
"That's right. Isn't this idea brilliant?" Wuhai said complacently.
"I have seen many people eat Rice Soaked in Tea, Rice Soaked in Meat Gravy and Vegetable Soup, but it's the first time that I've seen someone eat Rice Soaked in Hotpot Soup." The customer sighed with emotion in surprise.
"It's right the first time. That's why I said it's my creativity." Wuhai was quite willing to answer such compliments.
"There are all kinds of people here. Are you really not afraid of the spiciness?" A customer beside Wuhai asked curiously while looking at the bright red spicy soup.
"Of course. I'm looking forward to the taste very much." Wuhai said proudly.
"Aren't you afraid of your chrysanthemum getting damaged by eating it like that?" A customer beside Wuhai failed to restrain himself in the end.
"Ho Ho. I'm the same kind of person as Old Master Wang Cengqi." Wuhai stroked his small mustaches and said proudly.
"What do you mean?" A customer asked with puzzlement.
"Wang Cengqi. Old Master Wang is a big foodie. His famous saying is that he doesn't eat a duster if he has hair, doesn't eat a stool if he has legs, doesn't eat a dead person if he has meat, and doesn't eat a fly if he has meat." A colleague beside the customer was a little more clear and thus explained consciously.
"That's right. That's right." Wuhai nodded his head proudly.
"He's really a foodie." The customer said speechlessly.
Wuhai nodded his head and agreed. Then, he started to mix the rice with the spicy hotpot soup.
Spoonfuls of the red spicy soup were directly poured into the bowl.
The plain white rice of the 100 Styles of Rice Cuisine was naturally the best tribute rice. The crystal clear rice grains emitted a faint fragrance. The rice looked extraordinarily glossy in the small white porcelain bowl. It was the oil from the cooked rice. Now that it was poured over by the red spicy soup, it became more beautiful and vivid.
The glossy red spicy hotpot soup was poured over the white rice, creating a strong contrast in color. It looked bright and appetizing.
Of course, this was only Wuhai's opinion. Other customers felt that it must be extremely spicy. After all, no one would use the soup base of spicy hotpot to soak their rice.
After the hot pot soup was served, Wuhai naturally used a spoon to eat. He picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful, and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Hiss, so spicy." Once the Soaked Rice entered his mouth, Wuhai couldn't help saying that.
The spicy hotpot soup dyed the rice red. Once it entered the mouth, it tasted spicy, as if a piece of red-hot charcoal was stuffed into the mouth. Wuhai couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
But this was only a matter of an instant. The spiciness was slowly swallowed along with Wuhai's chewing. Then came the fragrance of the rice, and the spiciness went along the esophagus to the stomach.
It was so spicy that he couldn't help but break out in sweat. But what followed was the unique sweetness and fragrance of the rice. It was really a comfortable feeling.
"Awesome!" Wuhai swallowed a spoonful of rice and couldn't help saying loudly.
Wuhai scooped another spoonful of rice and stuffed it into his mouth. This time, there was a slight difference. When the spiciness leaped up, it was accompanied by a kind of numbness that stimulated the tongue and made the tongue feel a little sluggish.
Just at that time, the spiciness rushed into his mouth. The fragrance of the rice always appeared as the main character.
That's right. The Soaked Rice in the Spicy Hotpot didn't steal away the taste of the rice. Instead, the bland rice became the main character.
It was as if the spiciness and stimulation at the beginning were all to set off the fragrance and sweetness of the rice.
"It's really good rice." Wuhai sighed with emotion and said.
"How is it?" Seeing Wuhai eat up a bowl of Soaked Rice like a whirlwind sweeping away the clouds, a customer at the side asked curiously.
"It's extraordinarily delicious." Wuhai picked up his handkerchief on the table and wiped the sweat off and said earnestly.
"Is it really so delicious?" This person was really a little puzzled.
In his opinion, what else could be in the soup of the hotpot? All kinds of seasonings, spices and the abominable chili seeds and Sichuan peppercorns. Soaked Rice in such a way was equivalent to spoiling the plain white rice cooked by Boss Yuan.
"Of course. If you help me order another bowl of rice, I will tell you why." Looking at the spicy soup in the small pot, Wuhai said naturally.
"You are even taking advantage of me. If Boss Yuan knows that, you will be doomed." The customer at the side of Wuhai immediately refused him.
That was true. If Wuhai didn't finish the dish, he would be blacklisted by himself. Although he couldn't come here often to eat, it was still necessary for him to come here once in a while to have a sumptuous meal.
"No, I won't. I will definitely finish it. A bowl of rice cooked by Boss Yuan is not much. Don't worry." For the sake of the food, Wuhai even patted his chest and guaranteed.
After all, the spicy soup in front of him had been stimulating his taste buds. Therefore, he had to pay attention to his words. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to control his saliva.
However, the customer naturally thought that Wuhai was affected by the spiciness, because people would also salivate unconsciously to relieve themselves after eating spicy soup.
"I'm just asking if it's delicious. Wait …" Just when the customer wanted to refuse, he was stopped by his colleague beside him. He turned his head and looked at his colleague with puzzlement.
"Don't you want to taste it? Why don't you give it a try? "His colleague said euphemistically. However, he indicated the soup pot in front of Wuhai with his eyes.
"It's not that I can't agree, but you have to share some of the soup with me." The person immediately understood. He looked at Wuhai and said smilingly.
"Young people nowadays are really too greedy." Wuhai immediately moved the small pot closer to him vigilantly.
"Whatever you want." The person shrugged indifferently. Meanwhile, he ate a mouthful of the Egg Fried Rice blissfully.
Nevertheless, Wuhai looked at the spicy soup base and then looked at the indifferent Yuan Zhou with a hesitant expression. He almost said that it was all Yuan Zhou's fault.
Usually, Yuan Zhou wouldn't pay attention to such gazes. But today, he turned his head and asked, "How is it? Do you understand now that you don't need the colander anymore?"
"I understand. But how did you do it?" Wu Hai asked with a sincere expression.
"It's very simple. It's a chef's secret." When Yuan Zhou said that, he specially turned around and looked at Wuhai earnestly.
"Are you f * cking kidding me?" Wuhai pointed at Yuan Zhou and asked discontentedly.
"No." Yuan Zhou shook his head.
"Ho Ho." Wuhai's answer was simple and straightforward.
"Actually, the taste of the soup is a little different every time you eat it." Yuan Zhou thought for a while and then said while pointing at the steaming soup pot in front of Wuhai.
"What a stiff change of topic. I give zero points to that." Wuhai looked at the soup pot and then at his neighbor who was eating the Egg Fried Rice earnestly and then said to Yuan Zhou discontentedly.
"It's a fact." Yuan Zhou said quite earnestly with a taut face.
"Hey, give me some rice and I'll give you a spoonful of soup. Just one spoonful. Do you want it or not?" Wuhai first smelled the soup pot and then said to his neighbor with a hesitant expression.
"No problem." The customer at the neighboring table immediately agreed with a smile.
"How greedy you are." The heartache was almost written on Wuhai's face.
Even if the spicy soup in the small pot could be used to soak three bowls of rice, Wuhai still felt the pain as if his flesh was being cut off.
