Food starts with Mapo Tofu

Chapter 655 Miao Miao Wu's Little Assistant (ask for a monthly ticket)
At the end of the year, Chen Nian still didn't see those photos, and he suspected that this thing was fabricated by his mother.

But he has no way to verify whether it is true or not.

Since the market supervisors just came to check, they worked very seriously. Although they were meticulous before, after this incident, they still feel different.

They also ate staff meals at night, but there was an extra dish of spicy chicken that was just launched today.

After all, they are also a little curious, and although the apprentices are not locals, as a chef, coming to Sichuan shows that they are still very interested in Sichuan cuisine.

They watched Chen Nian make it for several hours at noon, and they were also a little curious about the taste of the spicy chicken made by Chen Nian.

"Master... is this your authentic method?" He Hai asked, he didn't know much about stir-fried vegetables, he only thought it was delicious after eating it, but he didn't know whether it was authentic or not, but thank you Yu is quite clear about it, but when he watched Chen Nian do it, he felt that Chen Nian's method was a bit different from what he knew.

But out of respect for Chen Nian, he didn't say it, and he was afraid that if he said something wrong, he would appear to be ignorant. All the time, no matter what dishes the master cooks, they are considered authentic, so this spicy chicken should be the same. The authentic way, maybe the version I know is the current improved version.

But Chen Nian smiled after hearing this: "This is actually an improved version, and it is slightly different from the previous practice. If you have to say that it is not authentic, it may be that it is not so authentic, but doing so It will taste better."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Xie Yu again: "Xiao Xie, when I made this just now, you went to the bathroom and didn't see how it was done. I just wanted to test you, can you eat it in this spicy chicken?" What did I put in it?"

Xie Yu thought for a while, since Master asked himself that, he definitely didn't want to hear what he said about the chicken, chili and Chinese prickly ash in it.

This kind of answer is not an answer, but a shrewdness.

Hearing Chen Nian's question, Xie Yu put another piece of meat into his mouth and tasted it. It seems that the spicy chicken tastes like it should be more fragrant, and it can also accentuate the fragrance...

"Is it sesame oil?" Xie Yu said uncertainly.

"That's right, it's sesame oil. Putting some sesame oil in it will indeed make it more fragrant, and after frying, the smell of sesame oil is actually not that strong, and it doesn't taste very obvious. The flavors of other ingredients are mixed together, and two strong seasonings, pepper and chili, are added to it, so it also suppresses a part of the sesame flavor.”

"This does have a scent. I didn't notice it if you didn't ask, Master. It's just that I tasted it carefully when I ate it, and I felt that sesame oil might be added in it."

And Chen Nian continued to ask with a smile: "Then do you know what else is added in it?"

"Others..." Xie Yu knew that Master was trying to teach him, but after hearing this question, he couldn't help but think of Master's steps when cooking at noon.

After all, they are making new dishes, so they always look over there unconsciously, and Chen Nian has never kept his secrets. The apprentices want to see, Chen Nian sometimes even deliberately slows down his movements , or let them see as much as possible no matter what seasonings they put when cooking.

"And white wine..." Xie Yu said.

As for the sesame oil, he was not too close, and he hadn't fully seen it clearly, and the seasonings were all directly scooped with a spoon.

Cooking in a restaurant is not like cooking at home. The restaurant will put all the seasonings in a special container aside, and if necessary, just use a cooking spoon to scoop them up.

But they still don't use much baijiu when cooking, so Xie Yu, who has been observing the aging at noon, has naturally seen the old bottles.

So after answering the old question, he deliberately added this point.

If he hadn't seen it, he definitely wouldn't be able to tell it now. Even if he knew it now, it would be difficult for him to taste the aroma of the wine carefully.

After all, the alcohol evaporates after cooking.

Then Chen Nian told him why these things were added to this dish.

Not only Xie Yu can hear these things, but everyone else can hear them too, even if they want to learn how to do it.

There are only our own people in the store, no outsiders.

In this way, after eating the staff meal, they began to prepare and get busy, but they didn't expect that many regular customers would come together during the dinner. Otherwise, they would think that it was agreed in advance to have dinner together.

Miao Miao Wu, Xiao Jing, Xu Qiu and Luo Ye all appeared in the store.

Miao Miaowu came first, but she didn't bring a camera when she came today, but brought a girl with her.

"Boss, I want a mapo tofu, a spicy chicken, a lettuce with garlic, two bowls of rice, and a big sour plum soup."

Miao Miaowu ordered the dishes here very familiarly, Feng Honghong memorized them one by one, and then she looked curiously at the girl next to Miao Miaowu, who obviously didn't look too old but more like Is a college student.

So I asked by the way, but Miao Miaowu said that this is not her cousin who is going to college, but a newly recruited videographer, it is a bit troublesome to eat and shoot by herself, and most of the time it is difficult to do it alone It is very tiring. I have to prepare everything by myself from beginning to end, including adjusting the lighting when cooking. It is for this reason that sometimes a dish has to be done many times. If it is It may be okay to say that the dishes that seem to be complicated in procedure are actually simpler, but the cycle is longer, but there is no need for rework during the process, just take it slowly.

But when encountering some dishes that are troublesome to make and easy to fail, a person will appear to be a little stretched.

"That's it, the little girl is really amazing. Being a photographer for Miao Miaowu must not be easy."

Miao Miaowu had already introduced this place to her before coming here, so the little girl didn't seem so shy.Facing the enthusiastic Feng Honghong, she cheerfully replied: "Auntie, I'm actually not very good. I just studied photography in college. I happen to be a fan of Miaomiaowu. In addition, I found a job not long after graduation. After working for a while, I found that it was not suitable.

So after resigning, while watching Miaomiaowu’s video, I sent a message, asking if Miaomiaowu needed a photographer, but I did receive a reply, and that’s when I got the interview. "

"Then this is your fate. Miao Miaowu has millions of fans who haven't come to be a photographer. If you can come, it means that you are better than them. What's the name of the little girl? You can come here often in the future."

"Auntie, my name is Bai Xiaoyu, but most of my friends call me Baicai, and my screen name is also this. Auntie, you can call me Xiaoyu, Xiaobai, or Baicai."

In the past, Feng Honghong was still a little unaccustomed to the name Miaomiaowu. After all, at her age, she always called others by their real names.

Even if it is to address the younger generation, it is the first time she has encountered one or two characters from other people's names, such as directly addressing Miao Miao Wu's screen name.

And at the beginning, they were called girls, but later on they got used to it.

Now that she heard the girl say that, she knew that Miao Miaowu was usually called that way.

"Little cabbage? It sounds a little nicer."

Anyway, young people like to call it that, so Feng Honghong is also willing to respect the habits of young people.

After chatting, she turned around and went back to put the list on the table, so that Chen Nian could read it later.

Afterwards, she went to greet other guests, and waited until the dishes from Chen Nian's side were ready before she brought them to the table one by one.

"The dishes are ready, Miaomiaowu and Xiaobaicai, you two eat first, and call me if you need anything."

"Alright Auntie, you should do your work first." Miao Miaowu said with a smile.

But Feng Honghong turned her head to look at Miao Miaowu while leaving, thinking that this girl's face is really kind, and she is also smiling all day long.

There are so many fans on the Internet now, but she still needs to eat and drink. Even if she usually hears that she has a fitness routine, her face is still round.

Chen Nian also said that Miao Miaowu earns a lot of money a year, if she wants to make herself look better, she can do it, but Miao Miaowu didn't do it.

But this child seems to be on her way to the third year, but she hasn't heard Chen Nian say that she has a partner or something, and she probably hasn't found it yet. It's not difficult to find it on her terms...

However, Feng Honghong only thought about it in her mind, and didn't say it in front of others. This kind of thing can be done by thinking about it in her own heart, so there is no need to worry about it.

Now young people don't like to hear this, not to mention that I and Wu Miaomiao are not related, so it would be nice to have a chat, there is no need to do that kind of preaching.

If you have time, you might as well talk more about your son.

Although his son doesn't like to hear these things, Feng Honghong feels that he has to say something. Whether his son can listen to it is his business, but whether he opens his mouth to say these things is his own business.

Looking at Miao Miao Wu, they looked at the dishes on the table, Xiaobaicai looked at Miao Miao Wu, and after obtaining the consent of the other party, she took out her mobile phone and took a few photos.

After all, she is still a little girl, and she is studying photography, so whether it is eating or anything else, she also likes to take pictures and post them on Weibo, in Moments, or on her and her friends’ little ones. Inside the group.

"Sister, the food in this restaurant looks really good! I have seen it on the Internet before, but I have never eaten here, and Boss Chen also saw it on the Internet, but I didn't expect him to be better than the video. Li looks much more handsome!
And his dishes, I didn't expect these dishes to look so good! "

Miao Miaowu also turned to look at Chen Nian: "Yeah, he is indeed quite handsome, but his girlfriend is also very cute. We have a good relationship and we live in the same community. After a while, we should continue to shoot videos, and then both of them will come over, and you can also meet them.

It's not impossible if you want to get an autograph. Hongdou is also very easy to get along with. "

"Hehehe." Xiaobaicai couldn't help laughing happily when she heard this, "I like them both very much, although when I knew Hongdou, her song was already popular, and when I knew Boss Chen, Boss Chen is also famous, but when I watched your video later, I found that the two of them appeared in the video at the same time, the sense of CP was too strong, since then I have been craving the CP of the two of them, unexpectedly, in the end, They really came together!"

When it comes to these wonderful witches, there is obviously a common topic!
Because Chen Nian and Hongdou are together to a large extent, she also plays a role in matching and assisting.

"Yes, yes, I also think the two of them are a good match! That's why I matched the two of them!"

"It's amazing, sister!" Xiaobaicai couldn't help giving a thumbs up.

But Miao Miaowu quickly changed the subject again.

"Oh, by the way, let me introduce you to the dishes here. You just came here, so you can see only a few dishes. We will come here a few more times in the future. After you eat all the dishes here, you will know how old the dishes are. How amazing is the boss, anyway, this is the first time I have seen such a young chef who can learn so many signature dishes from so many places in a short period of time, and the dishes are all very authentic!"

As he spoke, he began to introduce while eating.

"This mapo tofu only costs one yuan, and you might think that such a cheap dish has some kind of technology in it, or there is something tricky about the ingredients.

But in fact, I have seen Boss Chen make this dish with my own eyes. The ingredients used are all the same day, and the ingredients can be eaten after they are fresh or not.

You can feel the freshness and chewiness of this beef when you eat it. In fact, this is what Mapo Tofu requires. "

Xiaobaicai discovered this just now, but she was still a little surprised: "Sister, this is the first time I have seen beef in Mapo tofu. I used to eat only light tofu."

"In fact, beef is added here. On the one hand, it will be more fragrant, and on the other hand, it can increase the taste and flavor." While talking, she scooped a spoonful of mapo tofu on the rice, and then simply Stir a bit.

"But my favorite is to mix mapo tofu with rice."

Xiaobaicai also followed suit, mixing mapo tofu and rice together, and then scooped a spoonful into his mouth.

The spicy taste gushes out between chewing, and the tofu melts in the mouth, but the beef is full of chewiness. It is obviously soaked in the mapo tofu soup, but you can really feel it when you bite To that crispy crust on the outside.

After being crisp, it is full of elasticity, and Xiaobaicai fell in love with this feeling immediately.

When paired with rice, the spicy taste can be neutralized. Food like rice is naturally a special match with dishes, especially after being wrapped in the soup of the dishes.

So after such a bite, Xiaobaicai has a new understanding of how to eat Mapo Tofu!

The taste and feeling are so addictive!
