Who would have thought that among the fish caught from the great river today, there would be one like this? Despite looking flat, it's delicious when cooked, and there's one dish in particular that looks best when made with flatfish.
"You sure have an eye for selection! Come on, I'll make you a 'Peacock Spreading Tail'!"
Peacock Spreading Tail? Just by the sound of it, you can tell it's going to be delicious.
Xu Muqing excitedly cheered in approval.
True to its name, 'Peacock Spreading Tail' involves slicing the fish in a decorative pattern, resembling a peacock with its tail fanned out.
Lin Yuan personally began to prepare the flatfish, starting by scaling and gutting it, then she swiftly decapitated and detrailed it with precise cuts. Xu Muqing's eyes widened in admiration, remarking that Lin Yuan should not just be a chef, but could wield her knife on the battlefield to slay enemies, leaving none in her wake!
