Chapter 19 Stir-fried Vegetables with Tea Oil
in town.

The back kitchen of Yunxiang Building.

"No, this is the money for the four prey you brought. Next time there will be game. No matter what, our wine shop will accept it. The price is negotiable." There are some scattered copper plates.

"Thank you, shopkeeper. If there are good things, I will definitely send them over. Shopkeeper, let me ask you something. Besides extracting the oil from animals, is there any other edible oil?" Xie Zhong took the money handed over by shopkeeper Zhang, he bowed his head and nodded his thanks.

Although there are two wine shops in the town, the villagers in the nearby ten miles and eight villages like to sell the prey they catch from the mountains to Yunxianglou.

Because the price given by the shopkeeper of Yunxianglou is fair and real.

"The oil we eat is naturally extracted from animals. Could it be that there are other oils that can't be eaten?" Zhang Zhang asked with some confusion.

"Treasurer, look." Xie Zhong didn't say much, opened the small bamboo tube he brought today, and handed it to shopkeeper Zhang, letting him look at it by himself.

"This is oil? But it's not extracted from animals. Where did it come from? Can it be eaten?" The shopkeeper Zhang saw a tangy fragrance coming from the bamboo tube, with a greasy feeling and a lustrous color. It did not seem to be the lard that he ate in the past. Shopkeeper Zhang thought about what Xie Zhong asked before, and he was a little surprised. Apart from the oil extracted from animals, there are actually other sources of oil, which made shopkeeper Zhang curious.

"This is the method my niece learned from the book. It is the oil that can be extracted from a certain plant, but the output is too low and it takes too much manpower. Our family has been working for more than a month before we can get it. Fifty catties of oil came out.

Moreover, this oil is always delicious for cooking. It is better than lard for cooking. We have also eaten it. It is no problem. Today I will ask the shopkeeper whether your restaurant accepts this oil. "Xie Zhong also kept an eye out, deliberately saying that tea seed oil is difficult to extract, it takes a long time, and the output is low, which is true.

"This. To be honest, we have never eaten oil other than those extracted from animals. It's hard to say, otherwise, you can leave this small bamboo oil, and I will let the chef of the restaurant try to cook some dishes. If it works If so, when you come back to town next time, let's discuss the price again, you don't think so." Shopkeeper Zhang pondered for a moment in his heart, but he didn't refuse, and made two-handed preparations.

Shopkeeper Zhang is a businessman, and he also knows how to stay on the front line so that we can meet each other in the future, so he didn't say anything to death.

"Okay, just follow the shopkeeper's order." Xie Zhong nodded in agreement when he heard this.

The oil in the small bamboo tube he brought was not much, about half a catty, so he didn't feel bad about it.

After Xie Zhong left from the back kitchen of the restaurant, shopkeeper Zhang took the oil in the small bamboo tube and walked towards the back kitchen of their restaurant. When he came to the kitchen, a middle-aged man with a big belly came to meet him. With a round forehead, he smiled like a Maitreya Buddha and said to shopkeeper Zhang: "Shopkeeper, you come to the back kitchen, but I have something to order."

"Hmm! There are some things. Chef Liu, fry vegetables with this stuff, and then fry the same vegetables with the oil from our back kitchen, and compare them." Shopkeeper Zhang also kept an eye out for fear of the oil sent by Xie Zhong. There is a problem, so let the chef of the restaurant cook cheap dishes and compare them to try, so as not to waste expensive dishes.

"Sure, look at my shopkeeper." Chef Liu took what shopkeeper Zhang handed over, and he opened it to take a look, and saw that there was a golden yellow liquid in the bamboo tube.

That Chef Liu hesitated for a moment, and said, "Boss, this."

However, before Chef Liu could say anything, he was interrupted by shopkeeper Zhang and said, "Don't ask anything, just follow my orders and cook."

"Okay, I got it." Seeing this, Chef Liu didn't ask any more questions. He quickly fried a Chinese cabbage with lard, and then fried a large Chinese cabbage with the oil that shopkeeper Zhang gave him. Cabbage comes out.

When Chef Liu was frying vegetables with the oil brought by Xie Zhong, shopkeeper Zhang noticed that the stir-fried vegetables brought by Xie Zhong were more fragrant, exuding a special and attractive taste, which could not help but increase people's appetite stand up.

After the dishes are fried, and then compared, the oil brought by Xie Zhong, when the same dishes are fried, it is obviously refreshing and not greasy.

After trying it, the taste is also a little different. The dishes fried with tea seed oil are more refreshing and sweet.

"Shopkeeper, what you brought just now is oil, right? Where did you get it, is it expensive? The dishes fried in this oil are not only delicious, but the same dishes, the dishes fried with the oil you brought are even more delicious." good to eat.

Shopkeeper Zhang, have you noticed that the oil you brought is used to fry vegetables, and the oil is red hot, but there is no oil smoke coming out?This is a good thing. "Cook Liu said with some surprise.

"Use these oils, and the oil from our restaurant, and fry a few other dishes, including some meat dishes, and try again." Shopkeeper Zhang also instructed Chef Liu in surprise.

The result did not disappoint shopkeeper Zhang. The same people, the same dishes, and the dishes fried in different oils are more delicious when fried in the oil brought by Xie Zhong.

Seeing this, shopkeeper Zhang immediately made a calculation in his mind. Now the price of pork is [-] Wen a catty.

From a catty of pork, only about seven taels of oil can be extracted at most. If you want to buy the oil extracted by the Xie family, the price can only be set at .

Shopkeeper Zhang quickly set a suitable price in his mind, and bought the oil from Xie's family.

.

Xie Fanxing and Qian Shi came down from the mountain, and it was the end of the hour. Seeing that it was still early, Xie Fanxing planned to make kudzu root powder today.

"Auntie, because these kudzu roots have to be smashed in a big stone trough. My house doesn't have a big stone trough, so I can do this. I'm afraid that this kudzu root powder needs to be made at your home."

"It's a trivial matter, just go to my aunt's house to do it. It's just that it's getting late today, and the sun will go down in a short time. Can we finish this job?" Qian said worriedly.

"It shouldn't be a problem. This job is not a delicate job. Even if it can't be done, it can be done with a little light."

"Mother, elder sister, you are back, but you are tired." Fan Yu, who was looking after the house, saw her mother and elder sister coming back from the mountains, she hurried forward and helped her elder sister unload the basket.

"It's okay, Fanyu, go to the next door and call Fanyue and Fanyang to work." When he came to the main room, Xie Fanxing poured a glass of water for her aunt and herself.

"Fanyu, by the way, call Fanchen and Fanri over, let's have dinner together tonight."

"Okay! Mother, I'll go now."
