The boss cooks, and the bankrupt company opens a state banquet restaurant

Chapter 129 Who says he has a small appetite!

Sniff sniff~

Zhang Li followed Ling Shuyu sneakily and sniffed hard after entering the door.

Fragrant!

It's a scent I've never smelled before. It's not the scent of meat or any other condiments, but a burnt scent!

This smell reminded Zhang Li of her strange hobby.

Every time she has a meal at home, Zhang Li especially likes to eat mushy rice.

For example, she likes to eat rice that is scorched in the rice cooker, and she also likes to eat scorched potatoes from the bottom of the stew pot. Everyone in her family thinks that it smells bad, but Zhang Li doesn't think so. Anyway, it’s delicious!

The smell she smelled now could be said to have directly hit her weak spot!

"Boss! What are you doing~"

Su Chen raised his head sharply.

I rely on!

Why is Zhang Li back and why is Ling Shuyu coming up too?

"Do it." Su Chen looked at the short legs in disbelief, "No, why are you back at the company again? Didn't you go home a long time ago?"

"I'm going home, but I forgot to bring my key! Hey, luckily I forgot to bring my key."

Su Chen was defeated again by Zhang Li's brain circuit.

"Abao, we seem to have enough food."

Now that we are here, we can’t say that we haven’t prepared anything for you. You guys should go back. This is not the way of Chinese people!

"Sweat! Let's fire two more." Liu Abao was also a little confused.

He lives on the second floor, and Ling Shuyu works overtime on the second floor. It's okay if he doesn't come, but now that he's here, it seems like he deliberately didn't invite others, which is so uncomfortable!

Su Chen nodded silently, that was all he could do.

"We two have very small appetites, and we have already eaten in the evening, so we can cook less." Ling Shuyu said with his lips pursed.

"Yeah, that's right. Not only is the appetite small, but I also brought something with me!" Zhang Li picked up the plastic bag in her hand and shook the little stuff.

It was originally brought to Ling Shuyu, but since everyone is going to eat together, of course I have to take it out and share it!

Good guy!

Su Chen said, "It's okay for ducks to drink. Do you drink? If you do, go get it from the warehouse yourself."

It was still the beer that had been stored before, and it was covered with dust.

"I drink milk!" Zhang Li held Yakult.

"I can drink less. Zhang Li can drive, right, so I can drink some." Ling Shuyu didn't drink alcohol at first, but she and Su Chen drank some beer last time and felt quite relaxed.

She kind of liked the feeling of being tipsy.

In this case, Su Chen was not ambiguous.

The movements of her hands sped up a bit, and Zhang Li came over to watch out of curiosity, "Boss, what kind of dish is this? What are you doing? It smells so good to me!"

Do you know that you talk a lot?

Su Chen said patiently, "This is a Sichuan dish called crispy pork slices."

"Ah?" Zhang Li put her finger on her chin, "I don't like spicy food very well. Will I be unable to eat it? Boss, can you put in less chili pepper? Just in case I..."

"Zhang Li." Su Chen stopped holding the spatula in his hand first, and said very thoughtfully, "I remember there is some good tea in my office. You can bring it and make it for everyone to drink tea later."

"Uh-huh!"

But Zhang Li was sent away. Should I say it or not, sometimes this girl really has a problem with her brain.

Su Chen breathed a sigh of relief and continued to make handmade rice dumplings.

This thing is very simple. You only need to add salt and five-spice powder to the leftover cooked rice, then add two eggs and mix evenly. While mixing, you also need to sprinkle in some flour until the mixture resembles a dough.

Then roll the dough into a pancake, and sprinkle with a layer of black sesame seeds while rolling, which makes it look nice and fragrant.

Finally, use a knife to cut it into the shape you need, heat the oil to 70%, and fry it!

"Boss, you won't be able to bite this rice cake later, right?"

Seeing Su Chen's wild way of making rice dumplings, Liu Abao couldn't help but feel worried.

If any of the steps in this process is wrong, the resulting fried rice will be so hard that human teeth cannot compete with it!

It was obvious that the crispy rice fried by Su Chen was not yet cooked, probably only six degrees ripe at most.

How is this different from concrete?

"No, we have other processes." Although Su Chen didn't make it in advance in the practice room, he was still a little confident about the basic taste.

Take out a strip of loin meat from the freezer, which is the part slightly lower than the pork loin, close to the pork loin.

Use a razor blade to remove the white tendons, and then cut into slices one and a half inches long and eight inches wide across the meat grain.

Abao was cooking by himself, but couldn't help but observe Su Chen's technique. He was surprised when he saw Su Chen cutting meat, "Is this too thin?"

"The thinner this thing has to be, the more delicious it will be."

Liu Abao was even more confused after hearing this. Since it was crispy pork slices, it was probably for stir-frying. There are still some requirements for the thickness of the meat slices for stir-frying. If it is too thin, it will easily cause the meat to become cooked due to the heat.

That wouldn't taste good.

But since the boss said so, Abao still chose to believe it unconditionally.

The meat slices are also cut and the rice dumplings are fried.

Su Chen began to add various condiments to the bowl. People say that Sichuan food is the king of condiments. In fact, they are not only talking about spicy condiments, but also the condiments of other dishes are also very powerful.

There is a very special point in the seasoning of this dish, that is, only white scallions are used.

Cut the scallions diagonally into six-quarter lengths. Peel the ginger and garlic and cut into three-thirds square slices. Set aside.

Then add the remaining clear soup during the day, a spoonful of sugar, a spoonful of vinegar, a small amount of cooking wine, water dough powder, and a few drops of soy sauce to the bowl.

‘Sweet and sour? ’

Abao watched silently from the side, and the pomegranate egg in his hand was basically formed. This is considered a snack type in Hubei cuisine, and it is very good to go with wine.

Just watch Su Chen mix the meat slices with water dough powder and alcohol salt in a bowl, and then add a piece of pork to it.

The lard was only seventy-eight percent melted, so Su Chen poured all the meat slices into the pot, and then added onion, ginger, garlic slices, prepared magnolia slices and green mushrooms.

The ultra-thin slices of meat only require a very low temperature before the surface is set. Su Chen stirred them a little with chopsticks and then poured in the seasonings prepared in the bowl.

‘Here I go, this dish feels so barbaric’

‘The oil temperature hasn’t even risen yet, and it feels like the side dishes are just stained with a little oil, and they’re not cooked at all, right? ’

The extremely low temperature of the oil meant that when the bowl of broth was poured into the pot, not even a single oil star popped up.

Abao felt like he was sweating on his forehead. What kind of food is this special girl? The way is too wild, isn't it?

The key is that the sauce is poured out before it heats up!

I go

Su Chen brushed the bottom of the pot, and this time he chose to pour in vegetable oil. After boiling the oil over high heat, he put the crispy rice cakes that had been fried until they were six-mature back into the pot and deep-fried them again.

‘That’s not bad, we can’t chew the concrete piece! ’

Abao nodded silently. Boss Su's re-explosion was a bit more reliable.

Su Chen concentrated on controlling the heat until the crispy rice cake slices floated in the oil and turned golden brown, then took them out and placed them on a plate.

‘This dish is not complicated to make, but it is particularly unfriendly to novices. ’

‘There are many processes, and the control of the heat must be precise. But if you can make it smoothly, it’s not bad as a home-cooked meal. ’

This is how Su Chen felt after cooking the whole dish.

At this time, Su Chen turned around and asked Abao, "How is your food?"

Abao nodded, "Now you can start cooking."

"I have to eat this dish while it's hot. If you finish it, I'll prepare the final preparation."

"Well, nothing's wrong!"

Abao has begun to look forward to it. What is the so-called final production process that can combine the half-cooked meat slices and the crunchy hard rice cake?

Hearing this, Su Chen burned about six dollars of base oil left in the pot until it started to smoke!

Immediately!

The meat slices with soup in the bowl are poured on top of the rice cooker, and then the boiling oil from the bottom of the pot is poured directly onto it at lightning speed!

brush!

呵呵味.

Huge oil smoke suddenly appeared on the plate, and the soup on top of the meat slices made tiny bubbles as the high-temperature oil poured on it. The oil-water mixture seemed to have life under the high temperature. Dive into the fried pot with your life!

The rice cooker made a constant squeaking sound.

Su Chen said, "Because it makes such a sound when the oil is poured on it, this dish is also called Tangxiang Pork Slices!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the kitchen was filled with an extremely strong sweet and sour aroma!

"Shu Yu, there's a frying pan over there. You can fry some peanuts."

Ling Shuyu was stunned and pointed at himself, "Me?"

"Hmm, hurry up. Dinner is ready!" Su Chen walked out carrying the steaming slices of fried rice and pork. Po, on the other hand, carried his dozen pomegranate eggs as if they were treasures and followed them out carefully.

Zhang Li was making tea at the dining table. She raised her head and sniffed, "It smells so good!"

After Su Chen put the plate in his hand on the table, he asked, "Xiao Zhangli, is there anything you don't like to eat?"

Zhang Li chewed her nails and thought for a long time, "It seems not!"

Su Chen and Abao looked at each other.

Why does Zhang Li always give people the impression that they are easily cheated by delicious food?

The three of them sat down, and Ling Shuyu came out with a plate of peanuts.

Su Chen glanced at it. It was not bad. Although the heat was a bit too high and the color of the peanuts was heavier, at least he knew how to add salt!

At this moment, there were four dishes on the table: longevity duck, crispy pork slices, pomegranate eggs, and fried peanuts. Plus the duck stuff brought by Zhang Li could barely be considered a dish.

Zhang Li was holding Yakult, and the others were each holding a bottle of big green sticks, each pouring it into their own wine glasses.

Although the alcohol content of this Yanjing beer is not high, it is very easy to get drunk when drinking it.

"Come! In order to celebrate the successful completion of Teacher Cui's order, one of us will go first!" Su Chen took the initiative to bring the cup.

Ling Shuyu and others also contributed a lot to being able to resolve the conflict with Cui Yu this time.

They traveled thousands of miles to buy the ingredients Su Chen needed.

Especially green onions.

This sounds crazy, but in fact only those who have eaten it know that the green onions from Shandong Province are really different from the green onions from other places.

Otherwise, why would many people think that pancakes rolled with green onions are delicious when they are traveling in Shandong Province, but it is not the case when they buy pancakes from the supermarket and eat them back!

To put it bluntly, green onions are not good enough. Green onions originating from Shandong Province are the only ones in the country.

"It should be." Ling Shuyu touched the wine glass in his hand and finished it in two gulps.

When Zhang Li's Yakult met everyone, it seemed very inconsistent, "I also want to try some beer."

"You should be fine if you drink less." Ling Shuyu filled the remaining bottle of beer for herself first, and then poured it for Zhang Li.

I completely forgot about who would drive back later.

Su Chen and Liu Abao took a sip of wine skillfully and then ate a peanut.

‘Well, it’s true that the heat is a bit too much, but it’s still edible. ’

If you put this peanut in the practice room, it would be at the B level at best, but food like food has this characteristic.

In addition to their own preferences, people tend to ignore the taste of eating specific things in a specific atmosphere. Even the most ordinary food can always bring the highest physical and mental pleasure and beautiful memories.

For example, when I was eighteen years old, I took my girlfriend to eat a bowl of beef noodles.

"Family, how about you try my pomegranate eggs?" Abao was still quite confident about this dish.

The dish of pomegranate eggs is quite a natal dish for Po. He relied on this dish to become a senior technician, and many people even thought that Po had the ability to outdo his master!

Unexpectedly, the debut was the peak!

"Why is it called a pomegranate egg? This egg is a bit strange!" Zhang Li pinched an egg with her hands and looked at it, feeling a little confused about what to eat.

"Don't you think these eggs look like pomegranates?" Abao was a little unhappy.

Zhang Li stared carefully, "Does it look like it?"

Gan!

If possible, Abao really wanted to take the egg back and then beat Zhang Li until she cried.

"Isn't it like this?"

Su Chen stopped the two of them, "I'll try it too. It looks a bit like pomegranate, but it still requires some imagination."

"It's very troublesome to make this dish, okay?" Po pouted.

Su Chen also noticed, "Abao is right. This dish is somewhat similar to the snow egg, but it requires steaming the egg first until the egg white is solidified, and then poking a hole through the top of the egg to take out the yolk."

After Su Chen's introduction, Ling Shuyu also took an egg and looked at it.

You can see from the hole on the top of the egg that it is filled with stuffing made of diced ham. In addition to the aroma of ham, there is also a smell of sesame oil and marinade.

It smells so beautiful!

Su Chen added, "But I have a suggestion."

"Say it!" Abao quickly put down his chopsticks and listened seriously.

Earlier today, all those cooks from Shandong Province had realized enlightenment. A Bao was hiding behind the scenes and didn’t even realize it. Now he finally has a chance to realize enlightenment. How can he not be happy and excited?

"What you do is, after taking out the egg yolk, mix the diced ham with the egg liquid and then steam it in the filling. My suggestion is that you can fry the diced ham in lard and clear soup first, and add some when filling. The soup goes in."

"And to be honest, I personally think that frying and boiling are a bit unnecessary. It completely destroys the taste of the ingredients themselves. Of course, this is just my personal opinion. You can try it later."

These are Su Chen's most real feelings after taking a sip, and they are also the most direct feelings brought by the top of the taste.

"This" Abao thought slightly.

After Su Chen finished speaking, he didn't say much more. The pomegranate eggs had no egg yolk, and they were lightly fried in sesame oil and marinated for a few minutes during the final preparation.

In this way, you will feel like a tiger skin egg when you eat it. Call it tiger skin, but it does not have the taste of egg yolk, which makes the characteristics of this dish not outstanding enough.

But it’s okay to give it an A grade.

"But it's still delicious!" Zhang Li had already started to fuck the second pomegranate egg.

Po, on the other hand, drank a glass of wine alone and felt like something was growing in his head!

If you do what Boss Su did.

The ham stir-fried with stock and lard will bring out the internal aroma. During steaming, the ham flavor can penetrate directly from the inside of the egg.

Without frying and braising, the texture and taste of egg whites will remain original.

Liu Abao tried to imagine the feeling and taste.

hiss! It seems that it will really be more delicious?

Moreover, in this way, there is a feeling of simplifying complexity, and the production process becomes simpler and faster.

Thinking of this, Abao even felt a little itchy and wanted to go to the kitchen to try again.

Su Chen saw what he was thinking.

"Don't worry, skills don't happen overnight. Have a drink first!"

Tons tons tons~

The two drank another glass of beer, and then took another sip while drinking the small beer.

No, what about crispy pork slices?

I was just busy chatting with A Bao and didn’t pay attention to what was going on on the table. Where was that plate of crispy pork slices?

Obviously he and Abao didn't eat a bite, but looking at the two girls opposite, they were each chewing on a duck leg. Where did it go?

"Boss, the meat slices you just fried are so delicious. The rice cakes are crunchy and the meat slices are crunchy and tender, hehe!"

Zhang Li had the nerve to say it.

Ling Shuyu nodded in disbelief, "It would be great if it could be added to the menu on the second floor."

Good guy!

Su Chen and Abao looked at each other, both of them obviously helpless.

Is this what you call not eating much? There was only a bit of duck skeleton left in that big bowl of duck.

On the contrary, the duck bought by Zhang Li was barely touched, so Su Chen could only silently pick up a piece of fish tofu and chew it.

"By the way, boss!" Ling Shuyu ate and drank enough, wiped his mouth clean, and took another sip of wine. He felt very satisfied. "In addition to asking me for design, Director Li also said one thing today."

"what's up?"

"You know about the Xia Qing Sai, right? Director Li also said it while chatting. He said that the government won this competition to further promote the development of Gaoxinfa. Isn't there a stadium not far from us? By then Just play there.”

Su Chen nodded, "I'll try to get some tickets later. Everyone should go and see it. What's the competition?"

Ling Shuyu was stunned. She didn't understand Su Chen's thinking, "That's not what I want to say."

"That is?"

Ling Shuyu said sternly, "The competition venue for the Summer Youth Championship is available, but the problems of accommodation and dining have not been resolved yet. It was originally decided to be in the city, but it was opposed by the organizing committee, saying that it would be in the city. The gym is too far away and I’m afraid it will affect the performance of the players!”

This is just looking for trouble, Su Chen thought to himself, how far is it that it's only ten minutes away?

"Now the government is also having a headache about this matter. If you build a separate accommodation area and canteen, it will be useless after the sports meeting. This investment is a waste. But if you don't build it, the project may be ruined. !”

hiss!

Su Chen suddenly felt that there was something in Ling Shuyu's words?

"My idea is, can we take the initiative to contact the officials and get this investment in the form of a loan. They will pay us to open a new department, and they will repay the money after the company makes a profit. "

Damn it.

Su Chen's heart suddenly started beating wildly!

　I wish you all a Happy New Year!
