Food starts with Mapo Tofu

Chapter 496 Lard Bibimbap

After hanging up the phone, Chen Nian continued to make hibiscus chicken slices.

Although the previous one for Chen Zhixin was 100%, he still wanted to be more proficient. After all, he felt that he still needed to practice more during the process.

But fortunately, with the molecular cooking machine, making this dish is not as troublesome as before.

In this way, the restoration was carried out step by step, and the dish was ready after a short period of aging.

Looking at the door, it seems that there are no customers at this time today.

But just as he was filling himself with a small bowl of rice for supper, another person came to the door suddenly.

"Boss, it's been a long time. Is there any hidden menu that I can eat today?" Chen Nian couldn't help but thumped in his heart when he heard this voice, thinking why he didn't come sooner or later, but why did he come at this time?

But he still looked up and saw that it was Ye Feng who came.

"Why is it so late today? Is it still a birthday today?" Chen Nian couldn't help asking jokingly after seeing the old acquaintance.

"How can someone celebrate birthdays every day? Even if the lunar calendar and solar calendar are celebrated together, it's only two times. I worked overtime for a while today, so this point came out.

Originally, I ate a little too much some time ago, and recently I was planning to lose weight, but today I was really hungry, so I ran over to have a look. "Ye Feng sat down while talking, still sitting on the table when he came last time.

"Working overtime, aren't you dance teachers? It should be a training class, why do you have to work overtime?"

"Look at what you said, we not only want to teach dance, but sometimes we also have to perform some performances, and these are all choreographed. Today, we have been practicing with the students in the dance studio, and we have just finished practicing." Ye Feng He curled his lips and said.

But the appearance of curling the lips is quite handsome in Chen Nian's eyes. It seems that being handsome does have an inherent advantage, even curling the lips is pleasing to the eye.

But if it's me like this, it's probably not bad.

"Then it's not a coincidence for you to come here. All the dishes are sold out tonight, and now there is only one plate that I just made. Do you want to eat it? If so, I can treat you."

"What dish?" Hearing this, Ye Feng couldn't help standing up and poking his head towards the kitchen.

"Furong Chicken Slices, relatively bland." Chen Nian brought out the dish.

"This looks very good. I thought it would be okay if it was some heavy flavor. After all, there will be a performance going on in a while, and I have to control my body shape. And this looks like chicken? Is it made of chicken breast? Is it?" Ye Feng looked at the dish curiously and asked.

"It's made of chicken breast, but not sliced ​​chicken breast. If you eat it, I'll serve you another bowl of rice." Chen Nian said.

"Wouldn't it be a bit embarrassing to do this? Isn't it like I'm eating the overlord's meal? Otherwise, I'd better give the money. How much is this dish?" Although Ye Feng has a hearty personality, he doesn't want to eat other people's food for nothing. He is also unwilling to take advantage of others.

"What's the matter with embarrassment, I'll serve you rice." Chen Nian said, then turned around and put another bowl of rice in front of Ye Feng.

"But if you're really embarrassed, just give me some rice and forget it. The dishes I use for practice are free of charge, and this is pure chicken breast and egg white, even It doesn't even count as a cheat meal." Chen Nian said.

"That's fine." Ye Feng nodded, as long as it's not free.

Chen Nian made just such a portion of this dish, and after giving it to Ye Feng, Chen Nian himself had nothing to eat, but the rice had already been filled, and his stomach already knew the news that he was going to eat late at night, if he didn't If so, probably the stomach will protest at night, right?
But as the boss, it's not easy for him to compete with the guests for food. Although the plate he ate was what he wanted to eat, he said that a treat is a treat.

After thinking about it, Chen Nian went back to the kitchen. He first fried a candied poached egg, then took it out and put it aside. Then he put the compound soy sauce in the tank in the afternoon into the pot and heated it slowly. Clear water, after boiling, Chen Nian dug out a piece of lard from the jar and put it on the rice he had just served, then poured the boiled soy sauce into the bowl, and then stirred it evenly with chopsticks.

The lump of lard, which looks like mutton fat jade, gradually melts and releases a strong fragrance under constant stirring, as if with a small hook, it goes straight into the nose.

After being stirred, the original white rice was also dyed the color of soy sauce at this time, and the smell of soy sauce and lard were fully mixed to form a mouth-watering wonderful fragrance.

The red sauce color reveals a white luster, and the texture is like the skin of a noble concubine, which makes the aging feel very satisfying.

"This is the first time I have made lard bibimbap, but it looks pretty good." Chen Nian was very pleased with the results this time.

Then he thought that there seemed to be some snacks in the cabinet that Yueyue hadn't taken away when he came here.

Chen Nian couldn't help going outside, opened the drawer and found a bag of seaweed inside, which made him feel like Columbus discovered the New World.

Crush the nori through the bag and put it on top of the rice.

"This bowl is no worse than the one outside." Chen Nian came outside with this bowl of lard bibimbap, and sat opposite Ye Feng.

"Let's eat together, the boss, I may not be able to eat alone." Ye Feng said.

But Chen Nian shook his head. Originally, he was still looking forward to Furong Chicken Slices, but after making another bowl of lard bibimbap just now, he had completely lost interest in Furong Chicken Slices.

After all, I have eaten that one, but I have not eaten this one.

But if you haven’t eaten it, you can always see people talking about lard bibimbap whether it’s when you are in school or on the Internet.

"Looking at it now, it really lives up to its reputation."

"It's okay, you can eat. I'll eat this. I'm not very hungry after eating in the afternoon. I just eat something out of habit." Chen Nian said.

Then I started to concentrate on dealing with the lard bibimbap.

The plump and creamy taste is accompanied by the unique elasticity of rice, like pearls bouncing in the mouth.

While bouncing, it is also trying to exude its own smell. The strong fragrance and wrapping feeling fill the tip of the tongue, bringing people an unparalleled sense of security, allowing the old to taste this delicacy more attentively.

"Boss, what are you eating? Why does it look different from mine?" Ye Feng asked curiously
"This is me, lard bibimbap, it's the first time I make it, and I don't know how it tastes."

And Ye Feng didn't say anything more after hearing this. Lard bibimbap is not suitable for him. First of all, it is sinful enough to eat at this point. After finally making the food lighter, he mixed it into the rice by himself Lard?
Although seeing Chen Nian's face full of surprise when he was eating, Ye Feng never asked me to taste it from the beginning to the end.

The main thing is that I am a little afraid of lard.

Chen Nian didn't eat fast. When he finished eating, Ye Feng who was opposite him was almost finished.

"Hey, I said just now that I can't eat much, but it didn't take long for a plate of dishes and rice to be eaten." Chen Nian couldn't help but click his tongue.

But he wouldn't say these words out of wit, after all, he is a practicing family, and he has also practiced dancing.

"Boss, I'm full, thank you for the hospitality." Ye Feng said while taking out his mobile phone to scan the wall.

And Chen Nian didn't care about it at this time, he just said: "Eat early in the future, come to my place to eat more." Then he watched the other party leave from the corner of his eye.

But after Ye Feng walked out of the Honghong Restaurant, Chen Nian heard the loudspeaker on the counter: "50 yuan received via WeChat."

This made Chen Nian couldn't help raising his head instantly.

Who else transferred the 50 yuan, it must be Ye Feng!
He hurriedly chased him out, and he clearly said that he would only charge for one rice, but Ye Feng turned around and paid fifty!
But when he came to Honghong's door, Ye Feng was walking forward quickly, turning his head to check the situation while walking. When he saw Chen Nian standing at the door, he ran away quickly.

The speed was so fast that Chen Nian finally believed that the other party was indeed a dancer.

There are no two brushes that can't run so fast.

"Forget it, let's talk about it when he comes next time." Chen Nian sighed.

After going back and tidying up inside and out, Chen Nian locked the door and went home.

After arriving home, Chen Nian looked at the phone calendar and saw that An Hongdou's birthday was getting closer and closer, but he didn't seem to have started preparing gifts yet.

But there are already many gifts to give.

So I turned on my mobile phone to surf the Internet and began to carefully select materials and tools. Finally, it took more than an hour to complete the selection, and Chen Nian was already too sleepy at this time.

"No, I can't stay up late anymore, the dog's life is the most important thing." After Chen Nian finally confirmed the delivery time, he quickly put down the phone, closed his eyes and fell asleep quickly.

……

Chen Nian came to the store the next day, and after everyone arrived one after another, he said that he was going to shoot a video with Miao Miaowu again in a while.

So in the afternoon of two more days, I have to take a leave of absence, and then I have to hand over the preparation of ingredients in the store to other people.

And everyone also said that Chen Nian can go there with peace of mind, it will be no problem to leave it to them.

"Why does it sound weird?" Chen Nian felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the words, but he didn't delve into it.

"By the way, master, I went back yesterday and asked my younger brother. He said that he has time recently, and he can come over in the afternoon at the earliest. Look..."

"Okay." Chen Nian nodded, "Then let him come over in the afternoon and see how his knife skills are."

In fact, Chen Nian had guessed that Xie Yu's younger brother might be the one in the braised pork.

But he is not completely sure, after all, this is not 100% accurate, there will always be exceptions.

In this way, it was more than three o'clock in the afternoon.

Xie Yu went out to answer a phone call, and when he came back not long after, he brought a young man with him.

"Master, this is my cousin." After finishing speaking, he looked at the cousin next to him, "Come on, introduce yourself, and behave well in a while. If you don't do well, I can't keep you even if I work here. come down."

The way he spoke, Chen Nian really sounded like one of his own people, and Xie Yu wouldn't have said that if he hadn't been on a good relationship.

But Xie Yu's cousin nodded, and looked at Chen Nian nervously: "Boss, hello, my name is Li Ting, and Ting is Ting who stands up. I have three years of experience in the kitchen, but I have always been cutting vegetables and processing ingredients, beef, mutton and pork are more processed, chicken and duck are also often touched, and there is no problem with fish.

My brother should have already said that I may not be interested in cooking, but I just like to cut vegetables and meat. You may not have any intuitive impression of those things. Otherwise, I will give it a try and you can see my level How about it, if it works, let's talk again, if it doesn't work, then I wasted your time for a while..."

Hearing what the other party said, Chen Nian became interested.

After all, Li Ting's tone of voice seemed a little humble, but in fact he was still a little frivolous, but Chen Nian was not afraid of crazy young people, but he was afraid of incompetence.

And seeing that the other party speaks in an orderly manner, he is also the kind of person who has his own opinions and ideas.

"Okay, then you have a try." So Chen Nian didn't talk nonsense, and directly brought the other party into the kitchen.

"Xiao Xie, go and get a few stalks of onion, garlic and ginger, and then a piece of pork and a piece of beef."

Chen Nian said immediately, and Xie Yu quickly brought all the things Chen Nian wanted.

First of all, Chen Nian picked up a green onion: "Treat this green onion first, cut it into fine shreds, and then I will use the green onion over there to stew meat, and there is another green onion, you can use it yourself, you know Try all the cutting methods.

The garlic is the same, one end is cut into minced garlic, and the other end is cut into garlic slices.

For ginger, peel off the top skin, then cut part into shreds and part into ginger rice. "

Chen Nian didn't make things difficult, but just mentioned a few basic requirements in the kitchen.

Sometimes it doesn't need to be fancy to look at a cook's ability, you can tell a thing or two through basic skills.

And Li Ting was unambiguous, and soon after washing his hands, he picked up the kitchen knife and wiped it carefully, and then started to get busy.

The sound of the kitchen knife colliding with the cutting board kept ringing, and Li Ting's movements were skillful and smooth. It didn't take long for the onion, ginger, and garlic to be cut into the shape required by Chen Nian, and then neatly placed on the plate.

The whole process of aging can be seen in the eyes: "Yes, very good, the basic skills are very solid, and then cut some meat, I may have some requirements on the meat, the pork you took is pork belly, you have to put the lean meat on it. The meat and the fat are all separated, and then they are all finely cut to make saozi, but I don’t want to see some fat on the lean meat, and I don’t want to have lean meat on the fat.”

Xie Yu had stayed in Honghong Hotel for so long, and this was the first time he heard Master say such words. He looked at his younger brother nervously.

I'm afraid that Li Ting will be as angry as that town of Guanxi and turn over the table.
