Food starts with Mapo Tofu

Chapter 805 BBQ Killer
However, the first time Chen Nian ate pickled garlic was when he was in school, and he was astonished after taking a bite.

So much so that when he came back later, Chen Nian tried to marinate it with white vinegar, salt, soy sauce, salt, and chili sauce at home.

While some of the flavors are still okay, none compare to those marinated in vinegar.

After the vinegar is poured in, the aged is sealed and the lid is placed in the refrigerator for refrigeration.

Take it out and put it on the balcony during the day.

After this is done, the old man cuts the cabbage again. Cabbage is called fennel white in some areas, and cabbage in other places, but generally speaking, it is the same vegetable.

One of my favorite ways to eat cabbage in the past is shredded cabbage. When frying, prepare a little more garlic, put a part in the oil pan first, and then put two peppers, then put the cabbage in Stir fry in the pot. When the fry is almost done, put the remaining garlic into the pot. At this time, add seasoning such as salt, soy sauce, etc., and finally add some vinegar on the side of the pot before it comes out of the pot. It looks very delicious.

Coupled with Lao Chen's exquisite craftsmanship, Chen Nian can eat two bowls of rice every time he eats this dish in the store at noon. After finishing the dish, Chen Nian has to mix the soup in it with the rice and eat it together.

But now the old age will use this to make a cold dish.

In order to remove some of the water in the vegetables, the old ones were marinated with salt. At this time, the pickling was almost the same. After the old ones were pulled out, they were placed in a draining basket to rinse off the salt on them, and then the cabbage was controlled again. of water.

After that, the old man cut some green and red pepper shreds, both of which are the kind of non-spicy peppers specially selected by the old man.

After being put into the basin together with shredded cabbage, seasoning, salt, chicken essence, light soy sauce, vinegar and a little sugar will be added to it during aging.

After stirring evenly with chopsticks, make a layer of plastic wrap on the basin, and also put it in the refrigerator to refrigerate.

This is relatively fast now, and it can be eaten immediately after mixing, or it will taste more delicious after being refrigerated overnight.

The same kimchi is not very complicated to make. The peeled and cut white radish strips are also washed with water to remove the salt on them. After draining the water again, put them into the basin first, and then put them in again. Some chopped millet spicy.

Pour in pickled pepper and pickled pepper water, add white vinegar, a little sugar and an appropriate amount of salt, and finally add purified water into it, and you can wait for the next day to eat.

The same method can also be used to make chicken feet with pickled peppers and pork skin with pickled peppers, but it is necessary to add more pickled peppers and pickled pepper water when making the other two, so as to ensure the taste.

The last one of aging is relatively more complicated.

The bought mustard greens have already been preliminarily processed and have a lot of salty taste on them. The processed mustard greens do not need to be soaked in water in advance. After being aged, they are first cut into slices and then shredded.

Then put it in water for washing, because the remaining salt is to be removed.

As the name suggests, pickles are salty. In fact, this dish can be eaten directly if it is not processed, but I want to taste better after aging.

So after washing it three or four times, put it in cold water for later use.

On the way to wait, Chen Nian cut a whole green onion, cut some ginger, and then took a dozen cloves of garlic. In addition, he prepared star anise, bay leaves, cinnamon bark, and red pepper on the plate as marinade and seasoning. seasoning.

After preparing the seasoning, take out the shredded mustard greens soaked in cold water, squeeze out the water, and place them on a plate.

Turn on the heat and put the oil in the pan. After the oil is hot, turn the aging directly to medium-low heat, then put the seasoning spices prepared earlier into the pot and slowly stir-fry the flavor over low heat.

After the taste is almost the same, Chen Nian puts mustard greens in it and starts to fry slowly. After the mustard greens change color slightly, Chen Nian adds salt, sugar, and soy sauce for seasoning, stirs evenly and then adds a few spoonfuls Old soy coloring.

During the whole process, the aging has been using low heat, because the last thing to eat shredded mustard greens is a crisp texture, and the stir-fry time will make it soft.

When the dark soy sauce has fully dyed the shredded mustard greens into its own shape, it is directly fished out after aging.

While waiting to cool down, Chen Nian picked out all the seasonings inside.

First, I tasted the taste, but I felt that it was not good enough, so I added some light soy sauce and stirred it evenly.

So far, the four small dishes are ready, and now it is past eleven o'clock in the evening, but Chen Nian can't go home yet, because he has to wait until the mustard greens are completely cooled and put them in the refrigerator.

Just waiting and waiting, Chen Nian felt a little hungry, but the business in the store was really good during the day, almost all the vegetables and meat delivered by brother Liu in the morning were sold out, only some extra fritters fried for breakfast Not finished yet.

So Chen Nian thought about it and took out some millet to cook some millet porridge.

While cooking, Chen Nian even went to the next door: "Sister, are you hungry? Do you want some porridge? I just pickled pickles."

Gu Cheng was a little moved after hearing this, but he seemed to be hesitating again, and didn't say anything, but Lu Xiao shook his head directly: "You have cooked millet porridge, I still think that I haven't eaten barbecue for a long time, wait a minute Let’s go outside to have a barbecue.”

"That's it, then you go."

"Don't, let's go together."

But Chen Nian still shook his head, he didn't want to be a light bulb.

"Forget it, it's fine if I just drink millet porridge, just to taste the taste of my pickled vegetables."

"Okay, then let's go eat. If there is anything you want to eat, we can bring you some." Lu Xiao said.

"No, you can just eat what you have, don't worry about me, I'll go back after I finish eating."

Then Chen Nian went back to the store again, and continued to wait for his millet porridge for about half an hour. Chen Nian's millet porridge was ready, and he was just about to get a bowl for himself, and then eat it with fried dough sticks and pickles. As a result, Lu Xiao and Gu Cheng appeared in the store at this time.

"After much deliberation, we still plan to buy it and eat it together. Didn't you cook millet porridge? It should be good to drink millet porridge and eat barbecue."

"Sister, you can just eat by yourself, why do you come to my side to grab my millet porridge together?"

Hearing this, Lu Xiao rolled his beautiful eyes: "Chen Nian, you just treat me as an outsider, what is robbery, didn't you just ask me to come over and have a drink together? I didn't expect you to say that. I misunderstood you, I will go to my store to eat, and you can drink millet porridge here by yourself."

Although Lu Xiao said this, it was obviously meant as a joke, but before Chen Nian could explain, Gu Cheng quickly said: "Sister Lu, let's just eat here, Chen Nian won't let us drink, how can we drink it?" According to his wish, since he said to steal, then we will compete with him here to drink!"

Lu Xiao thought for a while: "It seems to be the same reason. He doesn't want us to drink, so we have to drink here and don't leave him a sip."

After speaking, he went directly into the kitchen, took a plate and put it on the barbecue, and Chen Nian was very tactful and began to serve millet porridge. Originally, he made a serving for three people, and it was about five bowls.

Just enough for three people.

After filling the millet porridge and bringing it to the table, Chen Nian cut the deep-fried dough sticks into small pieces and put them on the plate as well.

"If you insist on drinking my millet porridge, then I won't be polite to you. Today I'm going to show you what a barbecue killer is!"

After speaking, a bunch of mutton skewers came unceremoniously, and I started to eat.

"It's not bad. The mutton skewers are well marinated. Some meat tenderizer powder should be used on the top, but not too much. It doesn't change the structure of the meat too much, and the barbecue seasoning on the top is also very good. However, the fragrance is strong, one piece is thin and the other is fat, and it tastes delicious."

Chen Nian praised after eating the mutton skewers.

But Gu Cheng was a little puzzled: "Chen Nian, can you eat this too? It's just marinated and tender meat powder."

"Yes, I think the taste is quite obvious. Generally speaking, the taste of mutton skewers depends on the quality of the mutton itself. Maybe if the mutton is good, the meat will be more tender, but more often they are marinated. Some tender meat powder and the like will be added, so that no matter what kind of sheep is used, the taste can be guaranteed to be fresh and tender.

If a customer goes to a barbecue stall to eat barbecue, and they order ten skewers of mutton, the result is that each skewer is older than the last. It may be slightly better at the beginning, but the longer it is left, the colder the meat will be. It will be harder and more smelly.

But it’s different with the addition of tender meat powder. Although it’s cooled, it tastes a little bit better, but it will be better if enough seasoning is sprinkled. "

"Of course, if it's that kind of particularly high-quality mutton, such as Ningxia, XJ, etc., it basically doesn't have any smell.

Even the meat does not need to be marinated in advance. It is directly skewered and grilled on the fire. Even if it comes out, it is delicious even with a little salt. "

"Really? I still like to eat mutton. I personally don't mind the smell of mutton, but if there is such a thing, I would really like to taste it." Gu Cheng said.

"That's also very simple. When you go out to play in the future, just go to the Northwest side. Find a store with a lot of local people. Generally speaking, it's not bad."

"If I really have a chance in the future, I want to drive a car for a self-driving tour. Although I am a little tired, I am more free. I can go wherever I want." Gu Cheng unconsciously glanced at Lu Xiao when he said this.

Chen Nian noticed the other party's small movements, so he took the opportunity to ask: "Sister, do you like traveling?"

Lu Xiao is eating a bunch of grilled squid at the moment: "I like it. I don't need to make money to go out and play. Who doesn't like it, but how can I have time now? I still have to make money. I saved a lot before, but it costs about the same to open a shop in Chengdu." Yes, I still want to buy a house, it’s because I don’t have money.”

"That's true. Buying a house is indeed a big problem. Ordinary people have to work hard for more than ten years or even decades to buy a house. In this way, some people have to repay the loan for another 30 to [-] years. I don't know when the house price will come down." Chen Nian sighed.

He didn't have such a concept before, but now he feels more and more pressure on his shoulders.

"House prices will definitely drop, just like in the past few years, haven't the housing prices dropped? There is a real estate near us that was priced at [-] when it was first sold, but now it has been promoted to [-].

When I went to buy goods a few days ago, I saw some owners who bought a house holding banners there.

But, speaking of it this way, housing prices are relatively low now. If you want to buy one, you can buy it as soon as possible, because you just need it for your wedding, so as long as the price is about right, you can pay a down payment first, and you can take out loans later. return.

Even if it drops further in the future, it won’t be much lower. Besides, you bought it for living, not for investment. Let alone the current one, you should buy it even when the housing price was high three years ago. "

Hearing what his cousin said, Chen Nian nodded, seeing his cousin making cakes every day, he almost forgot that his major was in this field.

"However, sister, how much can you earn a year from opening the store?" Chen Nian asked again.

"What a year, my store has only been open for less than half a year, and I'm talking about a year, but to be honest, if the business can continue as it is now, if all costs are removed, it should be able to make a profit in one year. 30 million?"

"Calculated from 30 to [-] yuan, there will be [-] to [-] yuan a month, which is okay, better than going to work."

But the cousin shook her head: "Maybe he is much better than ordinary people, but compared to my classmates, they are nothing. Some of my classmates have an annual salary of 20 yuan after graduation and just joined the company. Now There are quite a few of them earning 80 or [-] yuan a year, and some of them have entered better units, and the figure is almost over one million."

Hearing this, Chen Nian was extremely envious. Those of his classmates at the beginning still earn less than 1 yuan a month in the food factory. More students have changed their careers to do other things, or crossed After professional postgraduate entrance examination, I found a better job after I came out.

But the annual salary of one million is still far away.

Sure enough, he still has to learn this popular major, but it doesn't matter to Chen Nian. Now that he runs a shop normally, he can earn nearly a million in a year.

But although I earn a lot, the money is also not spent. Buying a house is equivalent to three years for nothing, and buying a car takes another half a year.

As for using the money to make some investments, I have thought about it before aging, but then I think it’s better to forget it. Those professionals don’t necessarily make money every time they invest.

It would be nice to be able to save money in the end.

"However, Brother Gu's major is still very good. If he can go to some big factories, he won't have to worry about making money, but he will be a little tired."

Gu Cheng nodded in agreement: "Yeah, we can indeed earn money if we master this major. What we eat here is a youth meal. At 35, we have to start our own business, or switch to management. Other than that, you can just dawdle."
