"Come, come, don't just drink, everyone, pick up your chopsticks."
Guo Yixiang said as he gestured.
"This beef brisket and that lamb soup are the signature dishes of this hotel.
This steamed king crab, garlic lobster, braised sea cucumber, and Buddha jumps over the wall are the specialty dishes of this restaurant.
Everyone, please try them."
Upon hearing that the lamb soup was a signature dish, Zhang Jingyi prepared to scoop some.
A waiter behind her seemed to know what she was about to do.
He hurriedly handed the small pot in his hand to another waiter beside him to help her scoop a portion of lamb soup.
This lamb soup was much more delicious than the lamb soup she made at home.
After a bowl, a thin layer of fine sweat broke out all over her body.
"Xiao Guo, is this lamb the same lamb you sent me?"
"Yes, Auntie."
"I feel that the lamb soup at this hotel is more delicious than the lamb soup made from the lamb you sent me," Zhang Jingyi said.
"You're speaking the truth. How can my cooking compare to the professional chefs in the hotel?" Wang Xukun said from the side.
"Uncle, when cooking this lamb, use mineral water and simmer it slowly in a clay pot.
Absolutely do not use an aluminum alloy pot, as it will affect the taste.
If you don't have a clay pot, use a large iron pot.
Although the taste will be affected to some extent, the overall flavor is still good," Guo Xuyang said.
"I just used the stainless steel pot we usually use at home.
Just like when stewing other lamb, I added the same seasonings to remove the gamey smell."
"This lamb should be directly clear-stewed. After it's stewed, just add a little salt.
If you add seasonings, it will affect its original meat fragrance," Guo Xuyang said.
"Right, I was wondering why the soup was so delicious.
It's just that the soup at home has too strong a flavor from the ingredients, masking the original freshness of the lamb," Zhang Jingyi said.
"Where did you buy this lamb?
Can you help buy some when you go back?"
"This lamb cannot be bought in China.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be a signature dish of this hotel."
"Is that so? Then forget it," Zhang Jingyi said with a little disappointment.
"However, Auntie, if you want to eat it, we have plenty," Guo Xuyang said with a smile.
"Eating this is mainly beneficial for children," Zhang Jingyi wanted to say that it helps with milk production.
However, facing her son-in-law, she felt embarrassed to say it.
"Xiao Hong has been having a bowl of lamb soup every day since she gave birth to Xiao Bao. It's better than eating anything else," Guo Xuyang said.
"However, eating only this can lead to excessive internal heat.
So, you need to eat some seafood to balance it out."
"I wonder what you usually use to balance it?"
"These," Guo Xuyang pointed to the lobster, king crab, and sea cucumber on the table.
"If you steam these into dumplings and serve them with some vegetables, you won't get internal heat."
"How much would that cost?" Zhang Jingyi was stunned.
"This is our family's hotel, and we have special sourcing channels, so it's very cheap," Guo Xuyang said.
"Comparing people makes people angry. Xiao Hong has fallen into a nest of fortune," Zhang Jingyi sighed.
"Mom, what are you saying?" Xiao Hong called out softly.
"Isn't it? Your mother worked hard her whole life and never ate such good meals a few times.
Now, she eats it every day and is still not satisfied."
"Auntie, if you want to eat it, we can have the hotel make it," Guo Xuyang said.
"You can just stay here for a longer period when you return."
