Lisko's American life
Chapter 128 124. Eastern European Cuisine (First Order 10)
"By the way, do you guys know each other?" Haas looked at Ada and shook his head, and quickly introduced.
"This is my junior, the most proud disciple of my mentor, the most promising young writer leader in the United States who is most likely to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, and my closest friend, Li Sike, who now lives in Garrison, Schenck District, It’s a rancher, we can visit them next time."
Seeing Ada, Lisko quickly waved hello.
After Haas finished speaking, he turned to Lisko and introduced him.
"This is my girlfriend, my love, Ada, a painter. We met in a gallery. She is the most famous young female writer in Romania. Her works are full of creativity. We are cultivated by each other's talents and art. Attracted, I have been together for half a month now, so I invite you to introduce it."
Li Sike also stood up and greeted her.
Seeing Ida smiling and watching Haas bragging without refuting, Lisko felt that the two of them are a good match. Only complementary feelings are long-lasting. Two people with the same personality will inevitably have a lot of life together contradiction.
If Ida can endure Haas's unreliable thoughts and unreliable habits, I will definitely be able to go to the end with him.
Li Sike was also happy for his old bachelor brother. He has always been a relatively clumsy person. The fate of women depends on showing up as a writer at the banquet in order to attract people.
Logically speaking, Haas writes romance novels, and he should be very good at it, but on the contrary, he is a verbal giant who can often write the feelings of the hero and heroine in his pen to the fullest, with ups and downs. Attract all female readers to tears and cheer for the plot.
But he has always been clumsy when he is dating his girlfriend.
Li Sike never understood why this was.
Until there was a meeting, a senior brother solved Lisko's question.
"Haas knows everything, but he wrote the love in his own world too beautifully and purely. He gave all women a perfect love dream, but there is no such feeling in real life, so he That’s why I don’t know how to fall in love, and I seem to be incompatible with all women, because the heroine in his works does not exist at all."
Since then, Li Sike has admired this somewhat heartless fat brother, and his relationship with him has improved.
"Come on, try it. I cook Eastern European dishes," Ada greeted both of them and began to eat.
Haas opened the bottle of fruit wine, and when Ada saw this, her eyes lit up, and she could see that she was a person who knew how to live.
"Let me introduce to you. This is Viennese grilled ribs, ribs, with roasted potatoes, salad and dipping sauce. It is our best Western food in Eastern Europe."
"This is Czech roast duck. Put the whole duck in the oven and bake it, and add it with sweet and sour cabbage and steamed bread slices. It is delicious."
"This cake is very famous throughout Europe. Karlovy Vary hot spring cakes. There are 17 springs in Karlovy Vary. This is the eighth spring. It contains more than 40 kinds of minerals. The cakes are thin and crisp. It is crispy, with sweet fillings between the two slices of pie. It tastes similar to a flannel pie. This is a souvenir I brought back to Eastern Europe some time ago. It’s a good food."
"And this, dumplings."
"Huh? What do you mean? Dumplings?" Li Sko looked at the food in front of him, and couldn't connect with dumplings.
He has eaten dumplings from China, North Korea, Russia, India, Mexico, Mexico, Hungary, Japan, Kazakhstan.He has tried all kinds of dumplings, but at least the dumplings of others are strange. They are filled with meat, which is the same as this. Even if Lisko is stupid, he can see that this is a Chinese steamed bun. .
"You misunderstood, this is whole wheat flour with eggs, milk, fermented and cooked in hot water. We call it Dumpling." Ada explained with a smile.
Lisko had some understanding at this time. It turned out that in the Czech Republic, all food made from flour is called Knedliky, which translates into English as Dumpling.
There was another dish behind, roast pork knuckles, which Lisko had heard about it, a senior said at the banquet.The pork knuckle is marinated and then roasted by the chef over a wood fire.The golden skin reveals a thick orange red, and the whole body shimmers with crystal clear oil.The thick pigskin has distinct layers. The outermost layer is about half a millimeter. It is the part that is in direct contact with the fire, but it is not scorched and crispy.
But today, it seems that the conditions are not enough. This is made with an oven. It is not as exciting as the legend, but it is also suitable for Lisko's appetite.
After eating something, Lisko opened the chatterbox.
"Brother, how did you two fall in love?"
"Didn't you say it. In the gallery."
Haas replied.
"Oh, how did you get together." Lisko asked gossiping.
"We've met several times and left each other's contact information, and in the end it was I who spoke." Ada shook the glass, the golden pine nuts swirling in the glass.
"Wow, brother, you are a little weak." Lisko's eyes were full of disgust.
"By the way, Ada," everyone who had to talk about the whole table would have to take care of it, and Lisko also started to chat with Ada.
"You have a great wine in Eastern Europe called noble rot wine, right?"
Li Ske remembered a kind of alcohol he had heard about. The birth of this kind of alcohol was a complete accident. As a result, it became a famous wine in the eyes of many people.
"Yes, noble rot wine makes life more meaningful." Ada replied.
This sentence is a propaganda slogan for Noble Rot Wine, which is very famous in Eastern Europe.
Speaking of noble rot wine, its birth was really accidental. One year because the grapes were harvested too late, the grapes infected by the "noble mold" were semi-rotted and shriveled.Usually people can only abandon it, but a Hungarian fruit grower named Tokaj used it to make an exotic sweet wine.
Tokaj noble rot wine is called "the imperial wine" because of its unmatched quality in other countries.This kind of high praise can imagine its deliciousness.
Noble rot wine needs to be selected one by one grain by bunch. Sometimes—a vine may only produce—a glass of noble rot wine, which is especially precious.Moreover, the longer the wine is left, the more delicious and golden, and the color will become more intense. It is often referred to as the topaz color, transparent and golden.
Li Sike has never been lucky enough to taste it, and has always remembered.
"Then Ada, get rid of you next time you go back to Eastern Europe, can you help me bring some, I want to collect a little of this peculiar beverage category." Lisko told Ada his appeal.
"It doesn't matter, this kind of wine is easy to buy in Eastern Europe, and my brother is a liquor seller. I will send him an email later and ask him to post some." Ada has a very open personality, and she agreed very readily. Up.
