274. In the alley at night
Late at night, Xu Lun walked on the streets of Morioka City.
As the second largest prefecture in Iwatanao, Iwate Prefecture is mainly agriculture and has a low degree of urbanization. Even in Morioka City, which is the prefecture, there is no colorful nightlife like Tokyo. Most young people go to big cities like Tokyo to make a living. They can feel that the towns that are gradually getting old are slowly falling asleep. Under the bright moonlight, they look even more lonely and lonely.
Several 24-hour convenience stores, some open late-night izakayas, and mobile ramen stalls. The deserted streets are lonely in the early summer nights.
Izakaya obviously cannot take Suzuki onions, and the ramen stall on the roadside is a bit shabby. Xu Lun knows that the real delicacy is hidden in the late-night cafeteria in the alley.
Xu Lun took the [Divine Water Drop] and used his keen sense of smell to find the delicious food belonging to Iwate Prefecture.
Soon, he gained something.
With the shallow green onion in Linggu, Xu Lun came to an empty alley.
Late at night, a lonely man and a widow, a small alley.
If it were other works, it was probably a popular development for some people at this time, but as a gentleman, Xu Lun just walked into a small shop that looked ordinary.
Baked Rouya Sanshiro.
It looks like a roast butter shop.
There are two other groups of guests in the store, one table is filled with three social animals, who are drinking and barbecue.
At the other table, there was an elderly man drinking with some side dishes.
The boss is still busy in front of the chopping board and is cutting the meat of the snapper into sashimi. Although it is a barbecue restaurant, seafood is an indispensable order for every store in Iwate Prefecture, located by the sea.
Xu Lun sat down with Linggu Qiancong, and the boss quickly handed over a hot towel and iced oolong tea.
The meat is basically between 400 and 500 yuan. In addition to the common beef tongue, beef shoulder, tenderloin, diaphragm, and internal organs, there are also special short-horned wagyu beef, which seems to be a specialty of Iwate Prefecture.
In addition, seafood sashimi, stew, tempura fry, etc. are also available.
For some reason, there are recipes like cold noodles and fried noodles that should only be seen on China Street.
Xu Lun and Linggu Qianfeng didn't have a good meal all day today, and they were already hungry.
“What should I order…”
Xu Lun looked at the recipes hanging in the store.
The price is in line with the rural and rural standards of Iwate Prefecture, but this in turn has become an obstacle that makes choices more difficult.
After thinking about it, Xu Lun decided to see what the others were eating.
If it is a restaurant that locals frequently visit, then you can know the characteristics of this restaurant by looking at what dishes the locals order.
“BBQ and… well, cold noodles?”
Xu Lun saw that whether it was a social animal who had been working hard for a day or an elderly person who had been living leisurely, they ordered a bowl of cold noodles, which seemed to be the signature here.
"Is this the first time a guest came to Morioka?"
When the boss saw Xu Lun and Linggu's shallow contour, he paid more attention to the silver ponytails and asked.
"right."
Xu Lun nodded and admitted.
Sometimes asking the store owner to recommend it is also an option.
"Then you must try our Iwate Prefecture specialty, short-horned Wagyu."
The boss said without hesitation.
"It's Wagyu beef with shorter horns, not that fat, but very chewy and suitable for roasting."
"Then please give us one."
Xu Lun responded.
The price of short-horned wagyu beef is more expensive than that of ordinary beef, but it is only a gap of 200 yuan.
"Short-horned wagyu's upper brain, diaphragm, thick cut cow tongue, Eve Gelin, do you have anything you want?"
Xu Lun asked the girl beside him.
"Well, I'll be fine just like you."
Suzuki Shoten looked like he didn't go out often and didn't order food rashly.
Everyone is a good scholar.
"If there is still staple food...rice...no, it's better to have cold noodles, let's have two more portions of snapper soup."
Xu Lun has such a single path.
"Young man, you are very good at eating. Morioka's cold noodles are famous in Iwate Prefecture."
The old man who was drinking alone commented.
"is that so."
Xu Lun responded, took a sip of oolong tea and waited for supper.
The store uses charcoal fire. The boss quickly put the heated charcoal brazier on the grill between the two tables and covered it with iron nets.
A few plates of meat were brought out.
Thick cut beef tongue and diaphragm are similar to other places, and the plate also has chopped green onions and minced garlic seasoning.
Short horns are a little different from the upper brain of the cow.
The most important thing for traditional Wagyu beef is frostfall, that is, the snowflake pattern formed by fat and lean meat. The more patterns of frostfall, the better it looks, which means the higher the grade of beef. High-quality snowflakes wagyu beef can even be used as sashimi and evolved directly.
But short-horned wagyu, just like the boss introduced it, is full of brains, but the snowflake patterns are rarely seen, and it is more like pure red meat.
Xu Lun used a barbecue clip to pick up two pieces and put them on the baking net to heat it.
The high temperature quickly forms a layer of coke on the surface of the meat. Through this treatment, the beef can keep the moisture inside when heated, and the outside is burnt and tender inside.
As a professional chef, Xu Lun's barbecue skills are naturally excellent. Although it was the first time he came into contact with the Wagyu breed, he quickly mastered its texture. In a short while, two pieces of meat were roasted, and he and Suzuki shallots were one piece by one.
Xu Lun picked up the beef, drizzled it with a little roasted gravy, and put it into his mouth.
A completely different taste from traditional Wagyu beef.
If traditional wagyu beef is soft and delicate, then short-horned wagyu beef is tough and makes people feel like eating meat.
If you taste it carefully, you will know that the short-horned wagyu beef has extremely low fat content, which is commonly known as the lean meat.
If you change to ordinary beef, pure leanness will make it too difficult to chew and cannot swallow. However, the meat of short-horned wagyu beef is softer than that of ordinary beef, maintaining the chewing strength to a moderate extent, so that you can enjoy the toughness of the meat without hindering chewing and swallowing.
The rich juice is filled with the aroma of meat, making people feel endless aftertaste.
"tasty."
Suzuki's shallow onion's expression also turned into OxO, and his little mouth kept chewing, and finally he swallowed it slowly.
Apart from short horns, thick cut beef tongue, the taste of the diaphragm is also quite good. Although it is not as good as those of the high-end restaurants, it is also worth it to be able to eat such delicious food at this price.
While barbecuing the meat, the boss also served cold noodles.
Morioka cold noodles are made of beef bones and chicken racks. The noodles are chewy and smooth, and the soup is delicious and clear. On this hot summer night, a bowl of cold noodles is enough to cleanse the soul.
The fish bream soup has a different rich flavor. After the baptism of beef, the tides from the sea completed the end of the movement and warmed the full stomach bag and gave a perfect end.
It was already late at night when the two of them finished their meal.
The streets are still empty.
Xu Lun looked at the bright moonlight and suddenly remembered something.
Chapter completed!
