Chapter 61 Isn’t this really a dark dish?
Seeing Lin Zhou's recommendation, Zhang Mingyuan still ordered a box of each because of his trust in his cooking skills.
I also ordered a box of other flavors of candied haws.
There are twenty kinds in total, and a box costs ten yuan, which is two hundred yuan.
Lin Zhou's inventory suddenly dropped by another hundred strings. When the primary school students at the back saw that an adult, Zhang Mingyuan, had bought so many candied haws, they were afraid that it would be their turn to run out.
Where do children hide their emotions?
What they think is reflected on their faces.
Lin Zhou could see it, and Zhang Mingyuan, as a businessman, could naturally see it.
Lin Zhou saw his expression of embarrassment for the first time on his usually expressionless face, and couldn't help laughing for a while.
"Next time you want to eat something and you're not at home, just ask Uncle Zhang to pick it up. There's no need to go out of your way to buy it."
Lin Zhou saw his embarrassment and said with a smile.

Some candied haws are not worth much.
The price is far different from the tea that Uncle Zhang gave him, but he made it himself, so the taste is extraordinary.
"It's okay. My dad ate the candied haws you gave me last time by himself. Now he has a toothache and is in the hospital for treatment. I'm afraid he won't be able to eat it."
When Zhang Mingyuan mentioned this, he could clearly hear the smile in his voice, but he seemed a bit gloating about his misfortune.
This was something Lin Zhou didn't expect.
Uncle Zhang wouldn't have eaten all the candied haws he gave him, would he?
Yesterday, he saw that Uncle Zhang liked to eat candied haws very much. He was as happy as a child when he ate it. He didn't expect that it would damage his teeth.
"I didn't expect that it should be given to Sister Wang."
Lin Zhou finally realized deeply what it means to be an old child. If you don't pay attention at all, something could easily happen.
"If you can't guard against it, he will eat it secretly."
Zhang Mingyuan knew his father very well. He used to be a thoughtful businessman, but now that he's retired, he's focused on how to get married and steal food.
The two chatted casually for a few words, and then they saw the children behind scratching their heads and scratching their heads anxiously. They nodded with smiles on their faces, one left, and the other continued doing business.
Zhang Mingyuan returned to the car carrying a large bag of candied haws. Lu Qian looked surprised when he saw how much he bought.
"How much did you buy? Have you rounded up the candied haws for Boss Lin?"
Lu Qian felt that as a domineering president, Zhang Mingyuan was very likely to do such a thing.
"No, the kids behind me are watching eagerly. I'm afraid they will cry if I buy them all."
Lu Qian laughed when she saw Zhang Mingyuan saying such funny words with a serious face.
Then he randomly picked up a box of candied haws and opened it.
"Wow! So beautiful!"
The red strawberry candied haws, wrapped in sugar coating with dried osmanthus, are crystal clear and shiny. The sweet fruit smell is not strong, but you can smell it when you get close.
She had never seen such exquisite candied haws, it was so beautiful that her heart melted.
I was a little reluctant to eat it all of a sudden, ruining the exquisite appearance.
Lu Qian took out her phone, took a photo and sent it to her best friend.
Of course such beautiful candied haws must be shared.
After sharing, she took the strawberry candied haws and carefully took a bite.
In an instant, the sound of the icing breaking was heard in the carriage. Lu Qian covered her mouth in surprise, fearing that such a crisp icing would fall off.
Summer strawberries are not as delicious as spring strawberries.
The fruity aroma is not that strong, and the sweetness is not that strong.
Eating it alone may not be perfect.
But when made into candied haws, it’s just right.
The sweetness of the syrup balances out the sourness of the strawberries, and your mouth is filled with moisture and juiciness after one bite!
Moreover, the sugar coating is chewy and has the fragrance of dried osmanthus.
It adds a bit more flavor to the strawberry candied haws.
Candied haws on sugar-coated haws is really a magical food. It can turn some ingredients that are not so delicious into delicious food all of a sudden.
It's so delicious that people get to know this kind of food again.
"You should try it too, it's delicious."
Excited, Lu Qian forgot about herself and picked up the candied haws of sugarcane that she took a bite of and handed it to Zhang Mingyuan.
When she came back to her senses, she realized that the person in front of her was not her best friend but Zhang Mingyuan, and her face turned red.
Zhang Mingyuan also blushed a little at this intimate gesture. Before he could react, Lu Qian immediately retracted his hand, took out a bunch of complete candied haws from the box and handed it to him.
Zhang Mingyuan took it, ate one strawberry in one bite, and then gave his evaluation.
"Well, it's delicious, not sweet."
Lu Qian:......
How to say this evaluation?
Lu Qian can understand when she thinks that many people's praise for sweets is that they are not sweet.
He nodded in agreement.
This icing is definitely not the kind that's so sweet that it's cloying and harsh on your throat.
It is the sweetness of the sugar itself that enhances the taste of the ingredients, but does not overwhelm the taste and make people only taste the sweetness.
"By the way, there's also chili candied haws, which you probably haven't eaten before. Do you want to try it?"
Zhang Mingyuan was deeply impressed by the chili candied haws recommended by Lin Zhou.
I immediately found Hangzhou pepper and millet spicy candied haws from the bag.
Lu Qian's face turned green when she looked at the red and one green candied haws in front of her.
Isn’t this really dark cuisine?
"Can I eat it?"
What does this smell like?
Lu Qian couldn't imagine it.
Zhang Mingyuan shook his head, then felt that the reaction was a bit cold, and said again: "Lin Zhou highly recommended it and said it was delicious."
Lu Qian doubtfully picked up a bunch of candied haws with pepper and prepared to try it.
What if this taste is like the century egg wonton, which looks dark but tastes good?
Fresh Hangzhou peppers are crisp and tender, and have a fresh taste. When made into candied haws, the top note is sweet, the middle note is crispy, and the back note is spicy and fragrant. The pepper fragrance is strong and significantly higher than other peppers.
Moreover, the sweetness of the sugar coating neutralizes the spicy and crispy peppers very well.
The taste is chewy and can be easily bitten off. It is very crisp and tender. The Hangzhou pepper has a smooth taste on the surface but tastes a bit rough inside. There is also thickness, which gives a special sense of satisfaction in the mouth.
The sweet and spicy taste is very strong, and it stimulates Lu Qian more than the strawberry candied haws just now.
Lu Qian ate a crunchy pepper candied haws in two bites. Judging from his expression, it still looks delicious. Zhang Mingyuan also ate a string.
Hmm?
It tastes different from what he imagined!
There is no very stimulating spicy taste. The sugar coating and the spicy taste are well neutralized, making the taste of the pepper mild.
The taste of peppers is different from that of fruits. It is really novel to make candied haws.
It's a taste I've never tasted before.
"It's really delicious."
This string of Hangzhou pepper candied haws gave Lu Qian and Zhang Mingyuan a deeper understanding of Lin Zhou's cooking skills.
"The aftertaste is still quite spicy."
Compared with green pepper, Hangzhou pepper is spicier. When you first eat it, there is a taste of sugar coating. It's sweet and spicy. After a while, the spiciness surges from the tip of your tongue, and you feel a burning sensation.
"It's so spicy."
Lu Qian was slurping because of the spiciness, and quickly picked up other flavors of candied haws.
He picked up a string of purple grape candied haws and put it in his mouth.
A small grape, wrapped in one bite, bitten open in the mouth, like biting open a bursting bead covered with juice, the sour and sweet juice gushed out instantly, it was so stimulating.
