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。341Please respect copyright.PENANA9XPvaGPFvA

小妺妹揭開第一頁,開始講解菜色來:341Please respect copyright.PENANAeRKgdfGSPj
341Please respect copyright.PENANAADVRN0Qyb5
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。341Please respect copyright.PENANAdA5Br9kmVo
341Please respect copyright.PENANAwhLOfu5Qrv
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。341Please respect copyright.PENANAl9k6wb0h4M
341Please respect copyright.PENANAj5MBcw2xl4
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。341Please respect copyright.PENANASTMyUjgA1v
341Please respect copyright.PENANAnOKZ8KS7D6
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。341Please respect copyright.PENANAfy9VHSyCN4
341Please respect copyright.PENANAbHsGZw1s4F
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。341Please respect copyright.PENANAEHRFBylyEh
341Please respect copyright.PENANASeqe0rySVy
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。341Please respect copyright.PENANAitRCLnwxqI
341Please respect copyright.PENANApW6khTJdg5
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。341Please respect copyright.PENANA9SKpci7q5q
341Please respect copyright.PENANAsbCm1JSYop
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。341Please respect copyright.PENANAa4pqzQr4pz
341Please respect copyright.PENANACFgBgauinS
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⋯⋯341Please respect copyright.PENANAU0hOOmFHJ9

「就係咁。食啦!」小妺妹講完故事,得意洋洋。341Please respect copyright.PENANArLxcJKdkQP
341Please respect copyright.PENANAyrCKVHmlw4
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。341Please respect copyright.PENANAEcDxqRMBKZ
341Please respect copyright.PENANAp3b27ujItS
「所以呢碟係?」Sally始終舉起了筷子,夾起了一條根莖打量。341Please respect copyright.PENANA2DfF9CJUVh
341Please respect copyright.PENANAbrwcxtJJWn
「刺身蓉釀蓮藕帶,蓮藕帶即係未脹大嘅蓮藕,好爽脆架。」341Please respect copyright.PENANAnRszdxwYx4
341Please respect copyright.PENANApjjYGZmiLG
你早講。341Please respect copyright.PENANAFFcKl3vQa3
341Please respect copyright.PENANAxBqc8oZYC8
「哦!」我與Sally舒一口氣。341Please respect copyright.PENANAaoRh7ep260
341Please respect copyright.PENANA3N90MWt3ti
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。341Please respect copyright.PENANApGaieJf1wr
341Please respect copyright.PENANAHoZHMkZjB8
「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。341Please respect copyright.PENANA4ikdL2gjCT
341Please respect copyright.PENANAZCE05SqvOg
小妺妺微笑望住Sally,又擰轉頭望我,我清楚我是不能不食了。341Please respect copyright.PENANAolXazMc1B8
341Please respect copyright.PENANAWIOAy75gMl
於是我也舉起筷子,夾起一根白裡透紅的蓮藕帶,放入唇齒。341Please respect copyright.PENANA55Z2EcpGue
341Please respect copyright.PENANAsk88j1gTnv
很淡,也沒魚腥,不過脆口當中穿梭了肉的鮮味,口感很新奇。341Please respect copyright.PENANAYEYudccqNZ
341Please respect copyright.PENANAyHcPon88AN
「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。341Please respect copyright.PENANACIaATSNZpL
341Please respect copyright.PENANAt8thGNDEzR
「係呢,入面係咩魚肉黎。」Sally興致勃勃。341Please respect copyright.PENANAGs9C06UxBe
341Please respect copyright.PENANAkCVh7jyp2Y
「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。」341Please respect copyright.PENANAFDWbYiLwmF
341Please respect copyright.PENANAL5f8HTKVaP
我覺得背後一涼,應該是吹著搖擺冷氣。341Please respect copyright.PENANAHdJeUTpSVm
341Please respect copyright.PENANAc5kwUhhBPM
「淡水魚生食得架咩?」Sally口講一套,有理無理,亦不見停筷。341Please respect copyright.PENANAitF5adi6ZE
341Please respect copyright.PENANAk0pETZFpjR
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。341Please respect copyright.PENANAW1w9vDd5f9
341Please respect copyright.PENANAQO6MH50XlD
「你望咩?」Sally問我。341Please respect copyright.PENANAVfrXNGcc7Y
341Please respect copyright.PENANAdzWWjNhDEj
「無野。」我答她,然後把心一橫,把餘下兩根蓮藕帶夾入嘴中。
