"How does it compare to your grilled pork trotters?" Steve asked with a smile as he looked at Tony who was holding the plate and adding minced garlic.
"If you had told me that there were such delicious crayfish here, there would be nothing wrong with the bloody roasted pig's trotters." Tony said with a somewhat complicated expression.
"It seems that for you, that was not a wonderful experience." Steve shrugged. The Abyss Demon Clan has always set their sights on others. Although Tony is well-known in the food circle, but for those who ride big For the Pig Abyss Demon, he is not a distinguished guest that needs to be taken seriously, otherwise there would be no need to stay there for five days before eating roasted pig's trotters.
"I think I have fallen in love with Shell Island. The salty sea breeze, the beautiful and courteous waiters, and the delicious garlic crayfish are simply an incredible and wonderful experience." Tony praised, putting down the bowl, still feeling a little unfinished.
Steve looked at the remaining spicy crayfish and thirteen-spice crayfish, looked up at Mag and said, "Boss, which one has stronger flavor, spicy or thirteen-spice?"
"No need to ask. There are so many seasonings in Shisanxiang, so the taste must be stronger. Of course, I have to eat the spicy one first." Tony chuckled, a little speechless at Steve's question.
"Personally, I suggest you eat Thirteen Fragrances first." Mag replied calmly.
"Huh?" Tony was stunned.
"Okay." Stephen responded, grabbed the thirteen-flavor crayfish, looked at Tony again and said: "Don't underestimate Boss Mai's spicy food, you will regret it."
"Oh, what's the matter? I'm a demon who has tasted the roasted whole lamb with volcanic peppers from Volcano Island. I can't deal with a mere spicy crayfish." Tony said with a relaxed face, not taking Steve's words to heart at all. , but after hesitating for a moment, he still chose to start with the thirteen-flavored crayfish.
Compared with the mild and specific aroma of minced garlic, the aroma of thirteen-spice crayfish is more complex and layered. It is a aroma composed of many kinds of spices, and it is actually blended into the same shrimp.
When cooking, chefs avoid clutter. This will not only destroy the taste of the food itself, but also cause the food to taste weird due to conflicting smells.
In the Devil's Islands, most of the spices used by chefs are only three or four very common ones. They are mostly used to remove fishy smells and simple seasonings, so that the seafood fished out of the sea and the wild animals produced on the islands can maximize their own flavor. Delicious taste.
But for such a crayfish, Mag has added thirteen or even more spices and seasonings to it. This is really incredible.
Tony sniffed the fragrance and frowned slightly. Apart from making sure that there should be sea salt in it, he couldn't smell what any of the spices were.
For a food critic who claims to have an excellent sense of smell, this is somewhat frustrating.
However, the large number of spices does not make the fragrance confusing and difficult to accept. If you feel it carefully, you will have a wonderful sense of layering that is attracted to it step by step.
"It's hard to tell whether the chef randomly combined the flavors or deliberately created such a wonderful taste. Whether it can guarantee the same taste every time will test the chef's ability even more." Tony said thoughtfully and deeply. Shou broke off the shrimp's head and shell, revealing the plump shrimp yellow inside, and then took a sip.
The plump shrimp roe has been soaked in the soup. The delicious shrimp roe collides with the complex aroma. The taste buds are slightly uncomfortable at first. It seems that for a while, they don’t know what taste to feedback to the brain first, and then there is a seeming difference between seasonings and spices. Some kind of agreement was reached, and various flavors began to appear, and their wonderful flavors began to bloom.
Numb, spicy, fresh, fragrant, sweet, tender...a surprising battle was going on in the mouth, and without any suspense, Tony was defeated on all fronts.
At this moment, he finally admitted what the boss said. There were definitely no less than thirteen spices added to it, and the number would only be more.
Moreover, the rich flavors and surprising layers all demonstrate the chef's extraordinary memory for the use of spices.
After swallowing, the fragrance lingers, one bite after another, it’s so delicious that you can’t stop eating it!
This addictive Thirteen Fragrances, Tony has completely fallen to his knees.
"These Thirteen-Spice Crayfish are no weaker than garlic crayfish. No one on the Devil's Islands can beat them." Tony gave a thumbs up, then skillfully peeled off the shrimp shells and ate the quilt. The shrimp meat soaked in thirteen-spice soup will leave a lingering fragrance on your lips and teeth after eating.
After finishing the thirteen-spice crayfish, Tony's eyes were fixed on the last spicy crayfish. The garlic crayfish and the thirteen-spice crayfish had brought him too many surprises. The garlic crayfish had a mild taste. The rich flavor of thirteen-flavor crayfish has satisfied all his imagination of shrimps.
And what’s so special about this spicy crayfish?
In fact, he doesn't have much expectations in his heart. After all, it is very difficult for a chef to have an amazing specialty dish. If he wants to do everything well, such a chef often can't do anything well.
"Sure enough, Ma Xiao is my favorite." Steve had already grabbed the spicy crayfish and ate it with gusto. He breathed heavily, took a sip of cold beer during the break, and then let out a long sigh of relief. The look on his face The feeling of satisfaction made everyone watching couldn't help but raise their lips.
"Is it that exaggerated?" Tony was doubtful, so he reached out to grab the crayfish, peeled off the back of the shrimp, took out a piece of shrimp meat, dipped it in the red soup, and then took a big bite.
Numbness and spiciness blossomed on the tip of the tongue. It was a more exciting taste than the thirteen-flavored crayfish. The taste buds that had been active for a long time and were somewhat tired instantly jumped into the air and began to cater to the spiciness crazily.
Tony's face turned red all of a sudden. There are few devil races on the Devil's Islands that like spicy food, so he is not good at eating spicy food. But as a professional gourmet, ordinary spicy food will not make him react much, but this The numb and spicy feeling was like a needle suddenly inserted into his butt, giving him a jolt.
The numbness on the tip of the tongue did not last long. After chewing the shrimp meat that absorbed the spicy soup, the delicious and spicy food began to appear, bringing an unparalleled wonderful experience.
"Hiss...hoo...hiss...hoo..."
After swallowing a mouthful of lobster meat, Tony exhaled heavily. Apart from the delicious taste, spicy food was his strongest feeling. There were beads of sweat on his forehead. This was an intense taste he had never experienced before, and it was much stronger than yesterday. The bloody roasted pig's trotters are even more intense.
"At times like this, it's best to have a sip of cold beer." Steve raised his glass to signal, and then he also raised his head and took a sip.
"By the way, wine!" Tony's eyes lit up, and he picked up the wine glass on the table. The black stone-textured glass was cold in his hands, which made him feel refreshed, and he couldn't wait to take a big sip.
"laugh--"
A voice automatically sounded in his mind.
"Cool!"
Tony exclaimed!
