Chapter 96：

Upon seeing this, Lin Xian picked up the spoon and took a sip.

The soup is viscous and crystal-smooth. No wonder the fish has no taste, because the savory flavor of the whole fish has been absorbed by the soup, which is sweet and delicious.

This dish really surprised him.

Lin Xian took another sip and frowned slightly.

This dish is delicious, but he always feels something is missing.

This feeling was very strange, because it was the first time he had eaten this dish, and he didn't understand why he felt that something was missing.

At this moment, the system prompt in the brain suddenly sounded.

"Congratulations to the host, triggering the hidden mission: Man and Han Banquet"! [Man and Han Banquet】

Quest first ring: You found that this crystal soup yellow croaker seems to be incomplete. Please find out the truth and taste the real soup yellow croaker! (After completing the first task, the second task will automatically start.)

Task progress: 0

Final reward: ??? (depending on task evaluation)

...

I go!

Eating a meal can also eat hidden tasks!

This is too beautiful!

Lin Xian was stunned for a while.

Seeing him motionless, Yan Xiaoman curiously said: "Lin Xian, why don't you eat it?"

"I just remembered something!\" Lin Xian casually explained.

Picking up a tendon, Lin Xian ate it while carefully checking the tasks issued by the system.

This seems to be a task chain, one link is one link, and the second link can only be opened when the first link is completed.

The final reward can only be obtained after the entire set of tasks is completed.

Lin Xian was completely interested in this kind of serial task like decryption.

With a snap of his fingers, the waiter who was waiting at the side immediately stepped forward and asked: "Sir, what can I do?"

"Who made this crystal soup yellow croaker?" Lin Xian asked.

The waiter replied: "Oh, this dish was cooked by Mr. Gao Jianxiang, the chef of our Osmanthus House."

Lin Xian asked, "Can I talk to him?"

"Of course, I'll help you ask!" The waiter said, turning around and walking towards the back chef Nian.

Seeing this, Yan Xiaoman couldn't help asking, "Lin Xian, what are you doing?"

"I think of something, so I plan to ask about it." Lin Xian smiled.

Hearing this, Yan Xiaoman curled his lips and lowered his head to continue enjoying the food.

Lin Xian always does some inexplicable things, such as customizing a suit, just to be handsome in a fight, she has already taken care of it.

Before long, a middle-aged man wearing a white chef's uniform walked quickly to Lin Xian.

"Hello, I'm Gao Jianxiang, the chef of Osmanthus House. Is your husband dissatisfied with the taste of these dishes?" Gao Jianxiang was also a little inexplicable, thinking that Lin Xian was not satisfied with his dishes.

"No, these dishes of Chef Gao are delicious." Lin Xian shook his head and smiled.

Now, Gao Jianxiang is even more confused

In his puzzled gaze, Lin Xian said slowly; "I just tasted Chef Gao's crystal soup yellow croaker, but I always feel that something is missing, it doesn't seem to be authentic!"

Chapter 74 The Manchu Feast

Hearing these words, Gao Jianxiang was not angry, but his eyes lit up and he was pleasantly surprised: "Have you tasted authentic yellow croaker in soup?"

"No! This is the first time I have eaten yellow croaker in soup. I just feel that something is missing." Lin Xian shook his head.

Gao Jianxiang was a little disappointed, but then smiled: "The first time you eat yellow croaker with soup, you can feel strange. It seems that you are a natural gourmet."

"Mr. What's your last name?"

"My surname is Lin, Lin Xian!"

Lin Xian smiled and shook hands with him, and invited, "Chef Gao, sit down and talk."

After Gao Jianxiang sat down, he smiled and said, "To be honest, Osmanthus House has been in operation for so many years, and Mr. Lin is the first customer to **** authentic soup with yellow croaker!"

"Can Chef Gao elaborate? I am very interested in this!" Lin Xian asked calmly with a move in his heart.

"There is no secret in this matter."

Gao Jianxiang chuckled and said, "My soup with yellow croaker is really not authentic, because a key process is missing."

"Key process?" Lin Xian raised his brows, a little surprised.

Lin Guodong is a chef, so he knows a little bit.

For example, a piece of braised pork, some people make it tastes mediocre, some people make it delicious.

The gap is due to the lack of a key process.

The processes mentioned here do not necessarily refer to steps.

It may be a seasoning, it may be a unique cooking technique, or it may be knife skills.

What surprised him is that this incomplete version of crystal soup yellow croaker cooked by Gao Jianxiang is already very delicious, so how delicious is the real soup yellow croaker?

Gao Jianxiang nodded and continued: "Presumably, the waiter should have introduced it. The yellow croaker in soup was once one of the top dishes of the Manhan Quanxi. The people who know how to cook this dish are basically the descendants or apprentices of the imperial kitchen of the year."

"It was a coincidence to be able to learn this soup with yellow croaker. More than 20 years ago, I was still learning cooking in Yangcheng and had the honor to watch a private chef competition. At that time, in the third round, Master Liao Jie made it. It's just filling soup with yellow croaker!\"

After a slight pause, Gao Jianxiang sighed: "Unfortunately, Master Liao Jie hurried away at the last moment due to an emergency."

"For more than 20 years, I have been trying every means to restore this soup with yellow croaker. After countless improvements, I always feel that something is missing. In the end, I realized that the difference is the most critical process. "

At this moment, the task in Lin Xian's mind suddenly changed.
