"If someone goes to the store to look for Chef Chen, just say that you are busy in the kitchen, and then notify me as soon as possible, but don't say that there is no position for the chief chef in the store."

Seeing this news, Shu Yun, who was greeting customers in the store, was a little surprised.

Didn't Mr. Chen go to the boss's wife's house for the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion dinner?

Why does it seem like you need to help out after bragging and lying in front of outsiders?

She straightened the hair hanging down her ears and replied:

"Okay, I remember."

Although we are not the head of the 358th regiment Chu, since Mr. Chen is in need, we should help. After all, this is the 00001 member customer of Linji Cuisine, and he is the big sponsor.

Seeing this news, Chen Yan was overjoyed:
"Good sister, the cup does not shrink!"

A few days ago, when I was making moon cakes, I secretly swore on Shu Yun's cup, but now that I use it, I have become a good sister whose cup does not shrink.

Mr. Chen answered the message with a look of scheming, then returned to the kitchen and continued to perform his duties as the executive chef.

But her duties as the head chef are very simple...

"Brother-in-law, can this be taken away?"

"Brother-in-law, is the orange steamed egg in the steamer almost ready?"

"Brother-in-law, will you fry half of the beef later or finish it all?"

"..."

Shen Baobao, who was hitting the beef tenderloin with the back of a knife, couldn't help curling his lips:

"Hey, you're the chief chef? You're even better than you. At least it knows not to give orders."

Dundun, who was being hugged by Mrs. Han in the living room, suddenly opened his eyes.

Come on bitch, speak ill of me behind my back again, right?
The person in charge of the aunt has already arranged the delivery, so I don't have to be bullied by this stupid aunt in the future, but this stepmother... Alas, I can't do anything!
For a moment, the little cat's eyes were full of vicissitudes.

"What are you doing here, Yueyue?"

When Chen Yan saw her cousin smashing the beef tenderloin with the back of a kitchen knife, she came over with a curious expression.

Isn't that right, have you learned something new?
"I think it's fun for Xu Bao to smash chicken breasts, so I just took this piece of beef and smashed it for practice. Do you want to try it? It's a little stress-relieving."

Just as Chen Yan was about to take the knife and try it, Lin Xu came over, took the beef tenderloin and put it in the refrigerator:

"Stop playing, get ready for dinner!"

As soon as they heard that dinner was about to start, the two sisters arranged their chef uniforms and chef hats, and went out to inform everyone to sit down, while Lin Xu was holding a frying pan, frying the prepared ingredients one by one.

Today's dishes are mainly stir-fried and steamed dishes and stewed dishes. There are not many styles, but the portions are quite large.

After everyone was seated, Chen Yan and Shen Baobao brought over freshly steamed orange steamed eggs.

This kind of small dessert should be eaten after a meal.

But Chef Shen and Chef Chen, who were eagerly waiting for the compliment, couldn't wait for that time, so they adjusted the order of serving dishes.

Mrs. Shen said with a smile:

"My granddaughter and granddaughter jointly made it, and I will eat more."

When I was young, I only cooked food for these two girls. I never thought that one day I would be able to eat the delicious food made by them.

No matter what the taste of this steamed egg is, I will praise it later.

By the way, give me another commendation.

The orange steamed eggs are placed on a plate with a cover made of orange peel.

Remove the lid, and the smell of oranges and eggs floats out from inside.

In terms of taste alone, this is quite amazing.

Especially when she didn't have any hope and just felt that Shen Baobao and Chen Yan were fooling around.

Use a small spoon to reach into the orange and dig out a piece of steamed egg. The bright yellow color and trembling appearance indicate that the quality of the steamed egg is not low.

Many people can steam eggs.

But steaming the steamed eggs to the level of pudding is really impossible without two brushes.

The relatives became very interested, and this appearance has surpassed the orange steamed eggs in ordinary restaurants.

It’s not that the cooking skills are so superb, it’s mainly because ordinary restaurants make this dessert and save ingredients as much as possible, such as reducing the amount of eggs, adding some starch water to it, or replacing freshly squeezed orange juice with concentrated orange juice, etc.

While saving costs, the taste is also discounted.

So smelling the genuine orange steamed eggs, the relatives picked up the spoons and started to taste.

The pudding-like steamed egg exudes a rich egg aroma and the unique sweet and sour taste of orange juice. When you scoop a spoonful into your mouth, the tender and smooth taste makes you stunned.

"Oh, this tastes good."

"That's right, the taste is so delicate, and there are no honeycomb holes in it. It tastes fragrant and smooth, and the taste is really good."

"That's right, the sweetness is not very strong. On the contrary, the aroma of eggs and oranges is stimulated. Our Yueyue is really promising, and it can make such a perfect dessert."

"Xiaoyan is also very good. I thought she was making trouble in the kitchen, but I didn't expect her skills to be so good."

"In the future, I will invite someone to drink afternoon tea, and let Xiaoyan and Yueyue do it."

"..."

Listening to everyone's praise, Shen Baobao showed a proud smile on his face.

Hee hee, I finally won everyone's praise with my cooking skills.

But this is not due to me alone, there is also [-]% of Yan Bao's contribution, well, even though he is an assistant, he has to be on the list.

When she was feeling proud, her aunt Shen Guofang asked:
"Yueyue, why is the taste of this steamed egg so smooth and tender? And it has no pores. I occasionally make it at home, and the steamed egg custard is not so delicious."

this……

Shen Baobao was stunned on the spot.

I do not know either?

While steaming, I went out to buy oranges with Yan Bao, Xu Bao made these.

She looked at her cousin, and Chen Yan, who just claimed to be the chef, also looked blank. Obviously, this was beyond their culinary knowledge.

Can't panic, can't panic.

Recall the knowledge taught by Xu Bao.

If steamed eggs want to be delicate, it seems that they need to be filtered... Yes, filtering through a fine mesh sieve can make the custard taste more delicate, and it can also filter out the air bubbles.

As for the holes without honeycomb, it seems to be steamed on low heat, right?

Shen Baobao's mind was running fast, and then he said to Shen Guofang:

"Use a fine-mesh sieve to filter the egg liquid once, and the taste will be fine. As for the air holes, steam it with a low heat."

Well, no matter whether you operate in this way or not, you must show a confident expression that you are doing it at this time. If you do not taste good, then I am sorry, it is your poor craftsmanship, and it has nothing to do with my method.

Just at this moment, Lin Xu came in with a mapo tofu, and after hearing Baobao Shen's words, he said:

"That's right, the egg custard needs to be steamed over a low heat, which can effectively avoid the generation of air bubbles."

With the affirmation of the chef, all the female relatives present secretly remembered it in their hearts, and planned to go back and try this method.

If you can make it, then you can show off your cooking skills in front of your girlfriends.

Seeing Lin Xu coming in, Shen Guofu quickly took the bowl containing Mapo Tofu and said:

"Xiao Xu, are you done? Sit down and eat quickly after you're done. Everyone is waiting for you."

Lin Xu said:

"It's just a corn soup. It will be ready in a few minutes. Let's eat first. Don't wait for me. I'll come when I'm done."

Back in the kitchen, he didn't start cooking immediately, but called his mother Chen Meijuan first.

I usually stay with my parents during the holidays, but I'm not at home this year, so I have to call to say hello, so that my mother won't worry about having a daughter-in-law and forgetting about my mother.

The phone is connected, and it's very lively over there.

"Son, let me just say, it's already noon and we haven't called yet. We are having dinner. Your uncle has made several tables of dishes. Have you eaten yet?"

"It's about to eat, tell my dad to drink less."

"Don't worry, I won't drink alcohol today. The Municipal Tourism Bureau has set up a pennant for our scenic spot. Your dad has to drive to get it back in the afternoon..."

The mother and son chatted casually about the recent situation, and greeted grandma, grandma and other relatives.

Just as he was about to end the call and prepare to cook, a white and tender hand suddenly stretched out from the side to take over the phone:
"Mom, happy holidays, Xu Bao and I miss you so much!"

Hearing what her daughter-in-law said, Chen Meijuan on the other end of the phone couldn't hold back.

It's a big holiday, and my son is not around, even if I call, I can only care about it on the sidelines.

The sound of missing you so much made her eyes wet instantly:
"Mom misses you too... Is your stomach still uncomfortable, Yueyue? Do you need to go to the hospital for an examination?"

"No, no, it's ready. It must be a long time since I ate delicious food made by my mother, so my stomach is upset."

These words made Chen Meijuan smile all over her face.

My precious daughter-in-law is really good at talking. When we meet next time, I will definitely cook a lot of delicious food for you, so as not to upset my precious daughter-in-law's stomach.

After chatting for a few more words, the phone hung up.

Shen Baobao shook the phone at Lin Xu:

"You actually secretly called home behind my back, you're not good, I wouldn't have had ten kisses...uh..."

The young couple kissed beautifully in the kitchen, and then started making corn soup.

After they were done, they returned to the dining room, and the Shen family's lunch officially started.

In fact, it was supposed to eat at Shen's house today and at Han's house tomorrow.

But everyone was very busy, and Lin Xu couldn't follow relatives all day long, so he just had a meal at the old man's house and got together for a while.

As for my family, I don't care that much.

"Come and drink, Xiao Xu."

Chen Yuejin was holding a wine glass, wanting to have a drink with this excellent niece and son-in-law.

Lin Xu picked up the drink with an apologetic smile on his face:
"Uncle, Yueyue and I are going to school to visit our teacher in the afternoon. We really can't drink, so we will use drinks instead. Next time, I will prepare a big table and have a drink with you."

When he said this, Shen Guofu hurried to save the scene with a wine glass:

"Come on, brother-in-law, I'll go with you. Xiaoxu still has something to do in the afternoon. Let the young man do the work. I'm looking forward to this meal every day."

Chen Yuejin clinked glasses with the Weng and his son-in-law, feeling a burst of emotion in his heart.

I don't know if my future son-in-law is so good. Xiaoyan is thirty and still single all day long. When will she marry herself?

What a panic!

Worried, Chen Yan, who was eating egg custard, asked Lin Xu:

"Brother-in-law, do you have any other arrangements after going to school with Yue Yue?"

"I went back to the shop after school, what's the matter, Sister Yan?"

Chen Yan glanced at her father and said with a smile:

"I want to learn a dish for my dad. He likes to eat coriander, but because there are many people who don't like to eat coriander, so I haven't had much fun..."

One sentence made Chen Yuejin, who was worrying about his daughter, immediately burst into joy.

Ouch, our old Chen's daughter also knows how to care about her father, it's really rare.

Shen Guofang on the side was also full of relief. Originally, she wanted to have fun later, and let these relatives introduce someone to her Xiaoyan.

But since my daughter is so sensible.

Then don't rush, if she can find a partner, she will look for it, and if she can't find it, she will support her for the rest of her life.

There is no shortage of food and drink at home, and you are afraid that your daughter will be overwhelmed?
Love cilantro?
This is too simple, just cold coriander will do.

But looking at my sister-in-law, it means that she intends to cook a dish that can be handed out.

Lin Xu thought for a while and said:
"You can make it now. The beef tenderloin that Yueyue knocked just now is suitable for cold salad, and it's not difficult to make. Or I might as well make a dish of beef with coriander right now."

Shen Baobao didn't expect to be nominated and praised by his own Xu Bao after eating a meal, and said immediately:
"Okay, okay, I just want to learn too."

Beef with cilantro?
The others were a little surprised. Everyone had never eaten cold beef. Even if it was mixed, it was marinated beef cold. But seeing what Lin Xu meant, he could make it right away, so there was a high probability that it would not be marinated.

How do you eat this?
For a while, the coriander lovers and beef lovers were all silent.

They are all considering whether the finished product can be eaten.

On the contrary, Chen Yan and Shen Jiayue, the fake chefs, were eager to try:

"Then let's start, just add another dish!"

Lin Xu didn't refuse, got up and led the pair of crouching dragon and phoenix chicks to the kitchen.

Take out the beef tenderloin from the refrigerator, first separate it along the muscle texture, and then smash it horizontally with the back of a knife to relax the muscle fibers, which will make it easier to taste and taste better.

After smashing, cut into thin slices with a kitchen knife.

Considering the insignificant knife skills of Shen Baobao and his sister-in-law, Lin Xu said:

"If you do it yourself, this step can be replaced by a slicer."

The kitchens of rich people are not only spacious, but also have a full range of equipment that is not needed, such as multi-function slicers.

Of course, just because Lin Xu thinks it's useless, it doesn't mean that other people think the same way.

For example, the two chefs who are learning to cook now are very dependent on equipment. When they heard that they could use a slicer, they looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

Whoa, finally harnessing the power of technology.

Lin Xu said while cutting the meat:
"The meat slices don't need to be too thin. A thickness of two millimeters is enough. This thickness can make the beef tender and tender at the same time. If it is thinner, it will be easy to burn, but if it is thick, it will not be easy to cook."

hot?
A bunch of question marks appeared on the heads of Crouching Dragon, Phoenix and Young.

Curious about this approach.

"Boil it first and then mix it cold, isn't this... Isn't this the way to eat hot pot?"

Chen Yan seemed to have discovered a new continent. She felt that the hot pot that she usually eats, especially the Chaoshan beef hot pot, was eaten in this way.

With the two of us putting in so much effort to study, do we just learn a hot pot dish?
"Brother-in-law, is this dish...too simple?"

Simple?
Lin Xu put the cut beef into a basin and said with a smile:

"That's not necessarily true. This dish is quite delicate. If it is cooked well, it will definitely become a bright spot on the dinner table. In addition, if you learn it, you can also use it to mix various meat ingredients such as chicken and mutton."

Baby Shen's eyes lit up:
"Doesn't that mean that you can make your favorite hot pot dishes into cold dishes?"

"Yes, but you'd better forget it. It's better for you to eat less cold salad in the near future."

"Oh... I see."

Chen Yan: "..."

Brother-in-law, I understand how you care about your cousin.

But can you stop caring in front of me?
Is it so peaceful to spread dog food now?

Lin Xu put the beef into a basin, then poured some peanut oil into it and stirred it evenly.

"Why drain the oil?"

"This is to seal the moisture in the meat and at the same time make the meat taste better. Raw beef should not come into contact with salt grains and cooking wine during cooking, otherwise the meat will not be soft and tender."

After speaking, Lin Xu began to prepare the ingredients.

He took two vitex twigs, three millet peppers, and a piece of young ginger that Aunt Liu was preparing for kimchi.

Cut these three ingredients separately, and then mix them together and use a guillotine to chop them into pieces.

Then I brought a small handful of coriander and a few shallots, cut off the roots of the coriander and shallots and put them aside, this will be used when the beef is blanched later.

The stalks and leaves of the coriander and the shallots are cut into sections and placed in a small pot, and added when the vegetables are mixed.

After the ingredients are ready, start preparing the sauce.

Put half a tablespoon of light soy sauce, one-third spoon of sugar, and one-third spoon of oyster sauce in the pot, stir well with a small spoon, and stir the sugar to melt.

While stirring, Lin Xu said to Shen Baobao and Chen Yan:
"Salt can't be put in the sauce, so salty seasoning should be used instead of salt for seasoning, so that the taste will be more fresh. In addition to light soy sauce and oyster sauce, you can also add a little fish sauce to increase the salty taste."

After the sugar melts, pour a small amount of pepper oil and sesame oil into the pot, mix well again, and then cook.

Add water to the pot, bring to a boil over high heat, and then put a quarter tablespoon of salt into the pot.

The base flavor of this dish is increased here, so the salt should be sufficient, so that the beef will be tasty and delicious.

After adding the table salt, take a large colander and spread the beef as flat as possible in it.

Then, like making white jade lotus root shreds, hold a large colander in the left hand and put it on the pot, and hold the spoon in the other hand, scoop up the boiling hot water in the pot and splash it on the beef.

This step must be splashed, so that when the water spreads out, it also has a cooling process, so that the beef will not be scalded directly.

After the hot water falls on the beef, immediately wash away the blood on the surface.

The water fell into the pot again, and suddenly there were groups of froth.

And as the rinsing continues, the foam increases.

Chen Yan felt that the previous steps could be done to some extent.

But when she saw the way Lin Xu shook her wrist when splashing, there was only one thought left in her mind:
"It's beyond the outline, it's beyond the outline..."

Seeing that both of them were a little confused, Lin Xu smiled and said:

"You don't need to spread it out, but pile it up into a small pile, just scoop up a spoonful of water and pour it up, but after you pour it over, remember to turn it upside down like this, so that the beef in the colander can be turned over."

This……

Seeing Lin Xu deftly tossing the colander in his left hand, Chen Yan had only one thought in his mind:
This is also super class, brother-in-law!
At this moment, the beef in the colander has changed from red to pink, which means that the meat on the surface has been cooked, and only a little blood remains in the meat.

Lin Xu used a spoon to beat out the floating foam in the pot, then put the coriander root and shallot root into the pot, waited for the water to boil again, and pressed the two kinds of vegetable roots with a spoon to release the fragrance into the water as much as possible.

For two minutes, he dipped the colander into the boiling water, flipping it with a spoon while dipping, so that the beef in the colander completely touched the boiling water.

After being scalded like this for ten seconds, the beef has been completely broken.

Take it out again, press the beef with a spoon to control the excess water, then pour it into the prepared sauce, stir evenly with a small spoon, so that the sauce hangs evenly on the beef.

Then pour in the minced pepper, ginger, and coriander and spring onion, and sprinkle a small spoonful of cooked sesame seeds, stir well and put it on the plate.

"How about it, have you learned it?"

Shen Baobao answered irrelevant questions:

"I learned to adjust the dipping sauce for Chaoshan beef hotpot."

The aroma of the finished beef is very strong, even the taste of coriander is also baked.

It makes people want to eat it.

Chen Yan said:

"I have to go home and practice. If I'm lucky, my dad will be able to eat what I made this afternoon. If I'm unlucky... let the nanny make goulash."

Returning to the restaurant with the dishes, Chen Yuejin looked at the emerald green coriander on the plate and got hungry.

In his opinion, beef and pork are not important, what is important is to have coriander, which is the most important thing.

Meat lovers, on the other hand, stare straight at the beef in it, and make a dish with beef in just a few minutes. It will be easy to satisfy their cravings in the future.

Just heat it up, isn't this just eating beef hot pot?

He picked up a piece of beef and tasted it, and immediately showed a surprised expression:
"Oh, it's fresh and tender, very similar to the beef in Chaoshan beef hotpot. It's delicious. It's much better than eating hotpot."

When other relatives heard it, they also raised their chopsticks and began to taste.

Everyone thinks it tastes good, and most importantly, it only takes a few minutes to make.

Thinking about it carefully, when I just got home from get off work, I got a piece of beef and boiled it, and in just a few minutes, I could have an extra appetizer with wine, it was so exciting.

"Xiao Xu, can you teach us?"

"Why don't we just publish a tutorial, I feel like we can all learn it."

"Yes, it's time to shoot a video. There is a video of beef mixed with coriander. Let us learn it too."

"Who can resist the temptation of eating and drinking after get off work..."

Lin Xu didn't refuse either, and said with a smile:

"Then I'll shoot one episode when I'm not busy, and I promise everyone will learn it as soon as they learn."

After the meal, he and Baobao Shen drove the BMW X5 to the Central University of Finance and Economics to deliver mooncakes to the teacher who took good care of them at the time.

When he got back to the shop, he took advantage of the afternoon break to take a video of making beef mixed with coriander, and then started to do things in the shop.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, the busyness in the store has come to an end.

Lin Xu cleaned the boiler that Lao Huang had sent before, and then called Lao Huang:
"I'm going to make steam pot chicken, brother, do you have any high-quality pullets? The requirements for chicken are quite high for this dish."

"Yes, yes, everything is ready, just waiting for your call, brother, then shall we do it tomorrow?"

"Yes, make steam pot chicken tomorrow!"

--------

Today, I accidentally saw the beef mixed with coriander sent by the food writer Wang Gang.The follow-up is getting worse and worse, and the recommendation is nowhere in sight. Every time I look at the data, I feel so sad. The pier in the book is so lucrative, why can't you recruit a wave of readers for me?I think it's time for some reflection.
