這時師傅把兩碗前菜放到我們檯頭,冰潤通透的白瓷碗裡盛載住澄淨白水,底下是三段雪白齊整的蔬菜根莖。340Please respect copyright.PENANAxEreQrU3fV

小妺妹揭開第一頁,開始講解菜色來:340Please respect copyright.PENANAG4RVYBOQmP

自古有魚師一職,終日解魚,心無二志,故得道,精通者五年磨一刀,聞道者三十年磨一刀,化境者僅用鈍刀,證道者用眼開魚,以刀掩飾,是故數月磨一刀,境界無人識。340Please respect copyright.PENANA0NAFeEGtq9
340Please respect copyright.PENANAMrLQrXtSys
殷商末年,有一位李姓的年輕魚師在打魚時誤捉到蛟龍一條,他知道水底有龍宮,不想生事端,立即就放龍入水,講句得罪,怎料蛟龍不走,盤住船底圍繞,原來蛟龍是龍王三太子,知道遇上魚師,便想請其醫治腰患。340Please respect copyright.PENANAy7UOAoqptJ
340Please respect copyright.PENANAkEy2mEPUQG
魚師心想可做無妨,便請其上船,開眼剖其項背,挑出一條發炎蛟筋,並著其萬萬不可偷看,因為魚師分其筋骨手法精純,不知不覺,滴血不漏,可是一旦被分解者望見其自身支離的模樣,死念就會生起,一發不可收拾,血流成河,暴斃當場。340Please respect copyright.PENANA2Zu9u0pq5n
340Please respect copyright.PENANAB5dWyKaI8Y
蛟龍自然緊遵魚師指示,絕不回頭,但沒想到水有反光,餘波掠影,驚駭至極,悽叫三聲,氣絕船頭。340Please respect copyright.PENANAgLI7i8YycW
340Please respect copyright.PENANAwOMluwwaa5
魚師預料大禍已闖,龍王絕不罷休,不願有水災發生連累鄉里,便蒙眼割下自身骨肉,把肉造成脯餵其母食,把骨熬成羹獻其父飲,以還龍王喪子之痛。340Please respect copyright.PENANA8HOfinIVcG

但虎毒不吃兒,為人父母又於心何忍?兩老絕口不食,魚師苦苦規勸不果,便向其師傅東皇求助。340Please respect copyright.PENANArTtd72l5V8
340Please respect copyright.PENANAJcwXH7U1mF
東皇便賜其一把并蓮劍,命其削盡骨肉,分類妥當,魚師立即照做,剃淨自身,兵解之後遺下一株連根的并蒂青蓮。340Please respect copyright.PENANANZFohHOPue
340Please respect copyright.PENANAdtS0JHaWmT
年輕魚師的父母發現愛兒失蹤連日,便愁眉不展,茶飯不思,旁人見狀擔憂非常,就去請魚師東皇來看病,幫兩老開葷。340Please respect copyright.PENANAGEFPMR1tVp
340Please respect copyright.PENANA21TurI4AZm
東皇便將其徒弟的肉釀入藕帶孔洞,做成涼菜,再將骨與蓮子煮成暖羹,分別讓兩老服下,其後龍王息怒,救了百姓黎民,再後李夫人又得一子,懷胎三年,生下一顆肉球,劈開之後發現正是失蹤愛兒,髮膚完整,分毫不缺⋯⋯340Please respect copyright.PENANAnVl4TDHvoR

「就係咁。食啦!」小妺妹講完故事,得意洋洋。340Please respect copyright.PENANArgsBasrHX5
340Please respect copyright.PENANAiMU9zLIcaF
而我與Sally則是口水猛咽,自然不是開胃原因,兩人遲遲不起筷,低頭望住那碟白色菜物。340Please respect copyright.PENANAB0pp6LJ3OT
340Please respect copyright.PENANAfwXI1KhQqY
「所以呢碟係?」Sally始終舉起了筷子,夾起了一條根莖打量。340Please respect copyright.PENANAIy5DaabpTS
340Please respect copyright.PENANADUbjj7h3gH
「刺身蓉釀蓮藕帶,蓮藕帶即係未脹大嘅蓮藕,好爽脆架。」340Please respect copyright.PENANAPxFEJtgOu4
340Please respect copyright.PENANATKu2lxBdKy
你早講。340Please respect copyright.PENANAzdBnucuf26
340Please respect copyright.PENANAVF6NOSwoTJ
「哦!」我與Sally舒一口氣。340Please respect copyright.PENANA70y495vxZ6
340Please respect copyright.PENANALvauYYYCi2
Sally放心咬了一啖,五六段粉紅粉白的肉絲從斷口處的孔洞滑出,落入碗中清水,我認為肉的紅色是血,但奈何魚肉入水不化,碗中又映不出血光。340Please respect copyright.PENANAvcx3Xwyu4I
340Please respect copyright.PENANAhBPrUWo4q0
「嘩!好好食!你都試下!」Sally看來已把故事拋諸腦後,又將半截蓮藕帶蘸上豉油,再食。340Please respect copyright.PENANAVIitFdCisS
340Please respect copyright.PENANAmGBJjH9kPF
小妺妺微笑望住Sally,又擰轉頭望我,我清楚我是不能不食了。340Please respect copyright.PENANANYCf6AqBRc
340Please respect copyright.PENANA2PLAcIigEH
於是我也舉起筷子,夾起一根白裡透紅的蓮藕帶,放入唇齒。340Please respect copyright.PENANAjAFhIlGmSt
340Please respect copyright.PENANAxlfqi0Kvgg
很淡,也沒魚腥,不過脆口當中穿梭了肉的鮮味,口感很新奇。340Please respect copyright.PENANAbg6ky66cZz
340Please respect copyright.PENANAXxO0CDILTp
「好食呢,師傅用針將魚蓉一啲一啲推入去,好考功夫。」小妺妺見到我默不作聲地嘴嚼,十分自豪。340Please respect copyright.PENANAFwqa9eOJqO
340Please respect copyright.PENANAFU14qNpeoT
「係呢,入面係咩魚肉黎。」Sally興致勃勃。340Please respect copyright.PENANAR8oQy5Aphm
340Please respect copyright.PENANAA8SkUxt2n1
「錦鋰,同蓮花一齊養,同源滋長,相輔相生,一同入菜對身體有益。」340Please respect copyright.PENANAmCV8dOjk8m
340Please respect copyright.PENANAHGPJFK5WKO
我覺得背後一涼,應該是吹著搖擺冷氣。340Please respect copyright.PENANA9rxUSC3UkQ
340Please respect copyright.PENANAAvcCQuNINe
「淡水魚生食得架咩?」Sally口講一套,有理無理,亦不見停筷。340Please respect copyright.PENANAqm8UDdLvTf
340Please respect copyright.PENANARwEk4pwiDH
我漫不經心,轉身望了身後魚缸一眼,再生硬回頭,望住碗中剩食。340Please respect copyright.PENANA9TTRcKcPLg
340Please respect copyright.PENANAqFjE8eO9Dg
「你望咩?」Sally問我。340Please respect copyright.PENANAMg0DwkHsZv
340Please respect copyright.PENANAnV3iACV7v5
「無野。」我答她,然後把心一橫,把餘下兩根蓮藕帶夾入嘴中。
