Chapter 217 Mutton Soup

This dish is so intoxicating when you first smell it, and now when it is placed in front of you, you can't control your appetite.

At this moment, reason completely gave way to appetite, the brain was taken over by the taste and smell nerves, and the stomach seemed to have become a second brain, eagerly giving orders, instructing Sun Wei's arm to pick up the spoon and scoop a spoonful of mutton soup into his mouth.

As soon as the soup enters your mouth, the first thing you feel is the umami flavor. The extreme deliciousness makes your whole body feel like it was electrified, and you tremble subconsciously.

Among all meats, mutton has the strongest flavor, with a unique mutton smell. This strong mutton smell gives mutton a very unique flavor, which is deeply loved by people. Many people even eat mutton for this mutton smell.

However, many people cannot accept this pungent smell.

Sun Wei was one of them. He never liked food with pungent taste. Also, because of his weak stomach, he could not help but feel sick when he smelled such food. Therefore, he rarely ate mutton on weekdays, and even avoided it.

However, the amazing thing is that the bowl of mutton soup in front of me does not have that disgusting smell at all, but is instead extremely fragrant and charming.

The mutton that has lost its mutton smell has not become ordinary, because the unique mutton smell contained in the mutton has been cleverly stripped away, and the irritating and disgusting part of the taste has become light and almost undetectable.

The unique flavor of the mutton smell is fully highlighted. It carries a primitive and wild breath, blending with the umami of the mutton itself, making the pure umami taste more extensive and stronger, with a full sense of impact, as if rushing into the mouth like a flock of sheep running on the grassland, forcefully crushing the delicate and sensitive taste buds, making the taste buds tremble with this wonderful deliciousness.

After the delicious taste, the tender, fragrant and soft lamb slides into your mouth along with the delicious thick soup.

After a long period of stewing, the fat and meat of the mutton are fully integrated, making the mutton soft, fragrant and smooth. The meat is stewed until it falls off the bone. A light sip of the tongue will make the soft and fragrant meat smoothly separate from the bone, quietly surrender in front of the teeth, waiting for the sharp teeth to pierce its body.

As soon as the fragrant and smooth meat falls between the teeth, the sharp teeth tips pierce in without hesitation. The stewed soft meat almost melts in the mouth. As soon as the teeth lightly pierce into it, the mutton slides softly to both sides along the teeth tips, allowing the teeth to move in smoothly.

With every chew, the delicate mutton melts between your teeth, and the delicious soup hidden in the plump meat also blooms. The perfect combination of mutton fat and meat brings a silky smooth taste. With every collision of teeth and every sip of the tongue, you can feel its full tenderness and deliciousness.

And amidst this fascinating tenderness and deliciousness, there is also a unique medicinal fragrance.

The grassy and earthy smells of the medicinal materials have been cleverly removed, highlighting their sweetness and fragrance to the maximum extent. At the same time, the medicinal materials also have a mellow aroma of wine, and the unique fragrance of the grains after brewing further enhances the sweetness of the medicinal materials.

The taste of Codonopsis pilosula is sweet and clear, with the fragrance of grass and trees, just like a clear spring flowing through the mountains, with a pure and fresh taste.

The taste of angelica is sweet with a hint of bitterness. It has a warm and deep woody aroma, which is mellower than that of codonopsis. The woody aroma is also heavier and steady than the fragrance of grass.

At the same time, the unique bitterness of angelica makes its taste deeper and more restrained. It is not ostentatious, but like still water, it slowly nourishes the taste buds.

These two flavors, one is fresh, the other is strong, one is sweet and clear, the other has a restrained bitterness. The two different aromas blend together to create a more complex and fuller taste, adding a sense of layering to the taste of the mutton and giving the delicious mutton a bit more natural fragrance and years of precipitation.

With every chewing, this complex flavor will appear in your mouth one by one, just like the petals of a thousand-petal lotus blooming, presenting a gorgeous and charming show in your mouth that is dazzling and at the same time makes you feel full of satisfaction and pleasure.

Food goes down the throat and straight to the stomach.

Sun Wei had a weak spleen and stomach, so he didn't feel anything under normal circumstances. However, when the weather turned cooler, or even just a gust of cool breeze happened to blow on his stomach, his stomach would twitch violently as if it had received a huge stimulation, making him break out in cold sweats and suffer unbearable pain.

Sun Wei's cold constitution also made him very afraid of cold, and his hands and feet were always cold. As soon as autumn came, when others were still wearing single clothes, he had to put on a few more clothes under his coat. His stomach was like a cold stone, cold and hard, moving very slowly, and digesting food with difficulty. However, at this moment, after the delicious mutton fell into his stomach, it turned into a warm flame, and the cold stomach gradually melted under its heat.

The heat carried by mutton is not strong, but is released gently and slowly. The heat is stable and continuous, just like the early spring sunshine descending on the cold earth. It melts the ice with gentle warmth and allows spring water to break through the ice. It shines on all things, reviving creatures sleeping in the cold and warming the earth.

It warms the cold stomach, melts the stiff and sluggish stomach wall, and makes it soft and elastic again.

It was as if the stomach was awakened from its slumber by the gentle heat, and it began to move vividly, digesting this rare delicacy to its heart's content.

This gentle heat gradually spread from the stomach to the whole body, making the blood hot.

Sun Wei felt as if he was in the warm sunshine, and all the coldness that had accumulated in his body for many years was forced out.

Sun Wei shuddered violently, then collapsed comfortably in the chair, as if a huge stone had been lifted off his body. He felt extremely relaxed and comfortable, just like curling up in a dry and warm bed on a cold winter day, relaxing both his body and mind.

Sun Wei exhaled deeply with satisfaction. His whole body had never felt so comfortable before. Every part of his body was being massaged by the warm heat. Every inch of his flesh and blood was full of vitality. At the same time, he felt completely comfortable and relaxed.

The soul that had been tortured by illness in the past was gently soothed at this moment.

The anxiety, boredom and powerlessness lingering in my heart, which in the past locked my soul like chains, now turned into smoke and dissipated under the heat.

The mind is liberated, filled with incomparable comfort and freedom.

Is this what being healthy feels like?
that's nice!

Sun Wei closed his eyes and enjoyed it quietly, with a comfortable smile on his face.

The old man originally wanted Sun Wei to express his feelings and see how effective the medicine was.

When the old man saw his expression at this moment, he knew there was no need to ask.

The comfortable and relaxed expression on Sun Wei's face is the best proof.

However, the old man rarely sees this kind of expression on the faces of patients.

After all, the bitter taste of medicinal herbs always makes people frown, but in order to cure the disease, they have to pinch their noses and drink it.

Few people can happily take medicine, unless they have a different sense of taste and smell than ordinary people, or have special hobbies.

Medicinal food, on the other hand, allows people to take medicine happily, making it no longer painful but a taste enjoyment.
