Chapter 309 Everyone's National Day Arrangements!How easy is candied chestnuts?As long as you have hands! 【Subscribe】

"Xubao, can these stones really be used to make candied chestnuts?"

Baby Shen opened the package, grabbed a handful of small black stones and played with it.

Hearing this tone, Lin Xu knew what this girl was planning.

He smiled and said:

"Yes, and it seems that I can only make sugar-fried chestnuts, and I can't do anything else... It just so happens that new chestnuts are on the market. I will buy a few catties of chestnuts and fry them for you to try."

"Can't do anything else? Can't this be made into stone buns?"

"The stones used in the stone buns are one size larger than this one. They are too small. They are easy to get stuck in the buns. If you accidentally bite down, you may have to fill your teeth."

what?
Shen Baobao originally wanted to covet some stone buns, but he didn't expect that such small stones could not be made, what a pity.

"Can it be made into rice crackers? I saw in the video that someone used pebbles to make rice crackers."

"The stones used to make rice flowers are two sizes smaller than this, about the same size as rice grains, so they are also called rice stones."

I'm so angry, I can't make what I want to eat.

Lin Xu thought for a while and said:
"Actually, you can make grilled sausages. Isn't the black pepper sausage at the entrance of Uncle Yu's supermarket placed on a pile of stones? It looks very unique."

"Then I'd better eat fried chestnuts with sugar."

"Okay, I'll make some for you when I'm done. This one is relatively simple. There are stones and chestnuts and some sugar. Just stir fry in the pot for a while. It's guaranteed to be fragrant and glutinous."

Chestnuts can be made, but not now, because the noon rush hour is coming soon, and Lin Xu has to go up to make fried noodles.

Later, I have to exchange for another teaching and training task, and improve Zhu Yong's cooking skills in fried noodles, so that I can be freed from fried noodles.

Chow mein is popular, but other dishes have to be cooked too.

In less than five minutes after arriving in the kitchen, the first table of guests came, and they still ordered fried noodles.

The popularity of this staple food has caused the sales of hand-rolled noodles and stewed pork rice in the store to drop significantly. I dare not prepare more toppings for fear that there will be leftovers.

After all, it is a new staple food, and it is normal to be popular.

It is estimated that in a few days, the freshness of fried noodles will wear off, and the number of customers who eat fried noodles will decrease, and everyone will choose stewed pork rice or hand-rolled noodles again.

"Boss, how do you clean up these stones?"

While he was busy, Che Zai came over and asked, pointing to the pile of stones.

How to clean up?

Lin Xu shook the frying pan to prevent the noodles from sticking to the bottom, and then said:
"Big stones and small stones are washed separately in the pool several times with detergent. After washing, put them in the pot to boil for a while, and let them dry after cooking."

This kind of stone may be mechanically polished. In order to make it smoother, a layer of mechanical oil is applied to the surface during grinding, so it must be cleaned carefully to remove all the mechanical oil and grinding debris.

Cook it after washing to ensure that the stone is clean to the greatest extent.

Downstairs, after Shen Baobao left with a box lunch, Shu Yun saw Dou Wenjing in the group Aite Zeng Xiaoqi:
"When are you going to shoot the chow mein video?"

Zeng Xiaoqi sent a come soon emoticon package:

"Of course, the sooner the better, I can't wait to let the audience see and see."

"Tch, do you want the audience to see it? I'm too embarrassed to point you out. Our boss said that if you want to eat fried noodles, you can come directly. You don't have to go around. He is so busy recently that he doesn't have time to feed you."

Seeing this, Shu Yun couldn't help laughing.

Mr. Dou really has something to say.

You put it that way, Director Zeng can't come even if he wants to eat.

She thought about it, and asked Zeng Xiaoqi in the group:

"Director Zeng, now that the show is getting more and more popular, I think you should inspect the food you want to film in advance, so as not to overturn the food and live up to the trust of the audience... In addition, after the meal today, our boss will challenge fried chestnuts in sugar I also hope that Director Zeng will come to witness."

Zeng Xiaoqi, who was cursing Dou Wenjing's cup shrinking by three sizes in the TV station's office, suddenly had a bright eye.

Haha, when it comes to talking, it has to be our Shu Yun.

She pretended to be reserved and replied in the group:

"Manager Shu's suggestion is very valuable. After careful consideration, the program team officially adopted it. I'll tidy up and go to the store to inspect fried noodles. Also, please help me change the 32D of a certain group's business card to 32A, thank you."

Although she was cursed, Dou Wenjing didn't care at all, her attention was all attracted by the fried chestnuts:

"When will you make sugar-fried chestnuts? Why don't I know?"

"I just made a decision. The boss bought some stones for cooking chrysanthemum chrysanthemum, and a small bag of crushed stones for making sugar-fried chestnuts, and then the lady boss became greedy."

Girls have absolutely no resistance to such snacks as sugar-fried chestnuts.

Even Director Zeng, who had always been a leader, said that he would eat three catties.

While chatting, Zeng Xiaoqi suddenly remembered something:
"Huh? Usually when it comes to food, Mr. Chen will be the first to jump out. What's going on today? 34D, call 34D, please reply!"

At this moment, Chen Yan can't take care of chatting with everyone. She is in contact with the person in charge of a travel agency that makes high-end customized itineraries.

With the National Day approaching, it's time to bring all the employees of Joy Media out to relax.

Originally, Chen Yan wanted to go to the Longqi Mountain Scenic Area in Yinzhou to bring some business to Lin's parents and Lin's mother.

However, after communicating with Chen Meijuan on WeChat, I found out that the National Day tickets in the scenic spot are actually full, and even need to limit the number of people to enter.

As for the Cliff Hotel, apart from the one reserved for Shen Guofu, all the remaining ones have been booked out, and even the hotel area that has not been used has been forced to open in advance.

The starry sky camp can still accommodate, after all, just put up some tents.

But it also needs to limit the current, otherwise there will be insufficient manpower, too busy, and it will be too noisy, and the artistic conception of sleeping in a tent will be lost.

Since Yinzhou couldn't go, Mr. Chen turned his attention to the north.

All the scenic spots are full during the National Day holiday. Instead of making canned sardines, it’s better to find a place with a big sky and a big place to play wild.

So she booked a seven-day trip to HLBE.

Riding a horse to see the autumn scenery of the grassland.

If you are lucky, you can encounter frost, and the scenery will be even more unique.

At that time, two more sheep will be roasted, so that the company's anchors can feel the joy of eating roasted whole sheep on the grassland.

As soon as Joy Media went, Xinda Trading, who was in the same spirit as Joy Media, also planned to follow. Together with Yue Liyue and his roommates, a mighty tourist team was formally formed.

With so many people, food, clothing, housing and transportation need to be properly arranged.

So Mr. Chen, the big boss, took the responsibility of being the person in charge.

Knowing that everyone is planning a National Day trip, Zeng Xiaoqi was envious:

"I'm so envious of you guys. I don't know how to spend the National Day yet. Baby Shu, do you have any good suggestions?"

Shu Yun said:

"You can go back to your hometown. Didn't the fried noodles in your hometown drive a wave of returning home during the festival? Why don't you go home and have a look?"

"No, I'm urged to marry every time I go home. I want to be a female elite in the workplace, not a female goblin who has 32 kisses a day...Forget it, let's get a good night's sleep. When I wake up, I'll find you to eat and drink. drink."

In the store, Yue Liyue, who was having dinner with a few roommates, saw the travel itinerary plan posted by Chen Yan in the group, and couldn't help but want to ride a horse in a Mongolian robe.

He glanced at several roommates and asked:

"You really don't plan to go? As my assistants, the three of you are free of charge."

"No, we plan to catch up with the progress of power leveling. During the National Day holiday, the remuneration is doubled. This kind of work is hard to come by. We can't miss it."

"Yes, earning money is important, and traveling is not important."

"Now we just want to make money. If we don't earn more, we won't be able to afford Lin Kee's food."

In the past, everyone was urged to work hard by their parents and teachers, but now for the first time, they feel the urging from Lin Kee Food. If you don’t work hard to make money, you really can’t afford Lin Kee’s food.

Yueliyue didn't eat fried noodles today, but stewed pork rice.

He took a mouthful of rice with a spoon, regret written all over his face:
"A lot of the company's clerks are single beauties, and so are a few young anchors. I wanted to introduce you to each other. Forget it, it's good to be single, so I won't help you guys..."

Before he finished speaking, several roommates yelled as if they had flipped a switch:

"Brother Yue, you will be my real brother from now on!"

"I'm going to travel this time, even if there are knives in the sky, I will carry the bag for Brother Yue."

"Brother Yue, just order the tea and water in the future!"

Their income is not low, but they are busy day and night all day long, and the only time to socialize is to come to the restaurant for dinner, so let alone dating, they usually have no chance to meet girls.

Although you can meet girls in the game, there is a high probability that you will be a big guy who picks your feet.

Because they themselves also use female numbers in the game.

Every time they see a girl who talks delicately in the game, they can't help thinking of themselves, and then... nothing more.

After two o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Xu came out of the kitchen with a cup of sour plum soup after finishing his work. He was just about to take a rest at the booth when he found Dou Wenjing and Zeng Xiaoqi sitting outside.

He asked curiously:

"Is something wrong?"

Dou Wen nodded quietly:

"There is a document that needs your signature."

Zeng Xiaoqi on the side couldn't help but expose her:

"Are you here to sign? I'm too embarrassed to point you out. I ran over as soon as I heard the fried chestnuts in sugar. I was afraid that I would eat less. When will you be able to lose fat like this? I'm worried for you... ..."

She combined Dou Wenjing's previous words with her parents' urging marriage, and returned it to Mr. Dou.

Wow, it's so fun to say so.

Lin Xu was immediately happy when he heard it:
"It's not easy to eat chestnuts fried with sugar, Che Zai, go to Uncle Yu's supermarket and weigh a few catties of chestnuts. I'll fry them later."

This morning, when Uncle Yu came to the store for dinner, he said that he had bought a new batch of chestnuts. Isn't this just a good way to support the neighbor's business.

How many catties?

How many catties is enough to eat.

Zeng Xiaoqi said:
"Buy a little more, Shu Yun said this is her favorite, and she can eat five catties at a time without stopping."

When she said this, Dou Wenjing also agreed:
"That's right, that's right, Shu Yun did say that... By the way, since you're making sugar-fried chestnuts, why don't you just shoot them directly, just as a manuscript for the National Day."

Although there is no holiday here for the National Day store, the company will rest.

When the time comes, Lin Xu will have to figure it out by himself if he wants to make a video.

So while the employees are all there, I can shoot more videos if I can.

Lin Xu said:

"Okay, let them come over, and start preparing when they come... Che Zai, buy ten catties of chestnuts, remember to choose, don't buy bad fruits."

Chestnuts need to be picked out of bad fruits before frying, otherwise the whole pot of chestnuts will be stained with that sour taste during frying.

Lin Xu sat on the deck and rested for half an hour.

Half an hour later, the camera in the small kitchen had been set up, the chestnuts had been bought, Lin Xu changed into a clean chef uniform and apron, and started making.

"Hi everyone, I'm Lin Xu, today we're making sugar-fried chestnuts!"

After the simple opening remarks, Lin Xu brought over the cleaned chestnuts, and put the washed and boiled stones on the workbench, and added a bag of soft white sugar, and the ingredients for sugar-fried chestnuts were ready. .

There were too many chestnuts to make in one pot, so Lin Xu divided some of them.

He brought a vegetable pier and began to modify the chestnuts.

The so-called knife modification is actually to cut a cross on the flat side of the chestnut, so that the chestnut shell will crack after being heated, which is not only convenient for peeling and eating, but also allows the sweetness of sugar to enter, making the chestnuts more delicious.

And changing the knife in this way can further screen out bad fruits.

If the shell is cut and the inside turns black or red, there is a high probability that it is a bad fruit, just throw it out.

This is just a few shots, it doesn't need to be complicated.

After filming, Lin Xu waved to Che Zai and a few helpers, and everyone changed their knives together.

Soon, these chestnuts will be changed.

Continue shooting.

Pour the modified chestnuts into clean water and soak for a while.

Soaking the chestnuts can better shell the chestnuts, and some water can also prevent the chestnuts from being mushy during the frying process.

After the chestnuts were soaked, Lin Xu brought a large frying pan and put it on the stove.

Pour in the stones, turn on the stove, and heat up the fire.

When heating the stones, keep turning them with a spatula, so that the temperature of the stones can be consistent and avoid the chestnuts being mushy due to temperature imbalance.

The temperature of stone frying should not be too high. Basically, you can feel the heat when you put your hand on the stone, which is almost the same.

If it is too hot, the chestnuts will burst when put in.

Lin Xu took a large colander, took out the soaked chestnuts in the basin, controlled the water slightly and poured them into the pot.

As soon as it was put in, the water on the surface of the chestnut met the hot stones, and a lot of water vapor rose.

When the chestnuts are poured into the pot, they have to be stir-fried continuously with a spatula.

This is a very labor-intensive job. The stones are heavy, and the chestnuts are quite big, so it is not easy to stir fry.

The reason why those stalls selling chestnuts fried in sugar on the street use a spatula to stir fry is that using a spatula is too laborious.

After Lin Xu turned around for a while, he felt that it was time for Lin Ji's gourmet Tiantuan to show up, so he asked Wei Gan to come over and stir fry instead of himself.

"This is Wei Gan, the head chef of our Lin Kee Gourmet Kitchen. You should have seen it in the last competition, right?"

Wei Gan has lost some weight recently, but his strength has not decreased much. When he picked up the spatula, he turned around like a tiger, which made Lin Xu a little worried whether the wooden handle of the spatula would break in the middle.

Not long after, the water in the pot was fried again, and the chestnuts inside were also cracked.

The originally cut cross-shaped knife turned into a large cross-shaped cut, and the unique aroma of chestnuts also wafted out of the pot.

Lin Xu took a small spoon and added two spoonfuls of soft white sugar into it:
"The main purpose of adding sugar is to make the chestnuts have a caramel taste, which is more delicious to eat, but the sweetness is secondary, because the chestnuts themselves have a sweet fragrance, even if there is no sugar, the taste is not bad."

There is no requirement for sugar in this step, you can put white sugar, maltose, or even brown sugar powder.

Two tablespoons of soft white sugar were put down, and white steam floated out of the pot again, and the smell of caramel rose quickly.

The advantage of using soft white sugar is that it melts faster and the taste comes out earlier.

After adding the sugar, the surface of the stones in the pot immediately became more oily, and the chestnuts also became more oily.

Continue to stir-fry to let the heat and caramel smell completely soak into the chestnuts, so that the chestnuts will be more delicious.

When the smell of caramel became stronger and stronger, Lin Xu squeezed it out of the pot.

Wei Gan, who was stir frying at the side, couldn't help but said:
"It's at least a hundred degrees in here, and you actually squeezed it out directly. You are really ruthless."

Lin Xu smiled:
"I dipped my hands in water, and if I don't dip my hands in water, I will burn myself."

Peel off the shell, blow on the chestnut that exudes a strong fragrance, and then put it in your mouth.

Mmmm, incense!
It is fragrant, sweet, powdery and glutinous.

Don't say girls like it, boys can't stop it.

"How is it?"

"Okay, turn off the fire."

The two took out the chestnuts and put them on the tray to take a close-up. Zhu Yong asked from the side:
"Boss, don't you always make home-cooked dishes? There are so many stones that are not always available in the family, and the stones are quite expensive. Is there any more suitable for home cooking?"

this……

Lin Xu thought for a while and said:
"Really, let's continue to shoot, one kind of chestnut, two ways, just wait for everyone to try it, and see which method makes the chestnut more delicious."

Go back to the kitchenette and reshoot.

Take the unused chestnuts that have been changed just now, put them in a pan, add water to the pan, and just make sure the water is level with the chestnuts.

Add half a tablespoon of white sugar.

Add water to boil, cover and boil for ten minutes.

Open the lid after ten minutes. The water in the pot is almost boiled, and the chestnuts have burst. Turn over with a spatula and continue frying to dry up the water, and at the same time let the sugar juice evenly hang on the chestnuts.

The finished chestnuts are covered with thick syrup, which looks like candied haws.

"This is the easiest way to make chestnuts. Boil them in water and collect the juice over high heat. It's easier than queuing up on the street to buy them. You can try them at home. It's absolutely simple."

Walking out of the kitchen with the prepared chestnuts in hand, Lin Xu said to the people who were eating chestnuts outside:
"Come and taste this chestnut, see if it tastes good fried with stones."

Seeing the chestnuts with sugar juice hanging outside, everyone was attracted, not to mention the taste, the appearance is really good.

After putting down the plate, Lin Xu took a chestnut, peeled it and put it in his mouth.

This is because the added sugar has a lot of sweetness.

But the aroma is not as good as fried with stones. This one only has the aroma of chestnut itself. Compared with the dry aroma mixed with caramel aroma from chestnuts fried with stones, the difference is obvious.

"Wow! This is so sweet."

"It's a bit like eating candied haws."

"If you only eat a few, it must be this kind of sugar-coated one, but if you want to watch dramas and anime for a long time, the one fried with stones is more delicious."

"It's fine for me, as long as it's chestnut, it's not bad."

Lin Xu took a plate and took some chestnuts fried with stones to one side. He was about to play with the fried chestnuts with sugar, when Wei Qian who was not far away suddenly asked:

"Lin Xu, what are you going to do with the remaining chestnuts? Are you going to make sugar-fried chestnuts?"

What do you mean?
Is this ready to show off?

Lin Xu asked:

"Do you have any ideas?"

"I want to make some chestnut roasted pork in the afternoon, put chestnuts and pork belly together, look..."

"That's it!"

--------

It seems that the chestnuts are coming down soon, you can try it at home, just add sugar and cook for ten minutes in a pan, but remember to change the knife when making it, otherwise the chestnuts are easy to explode.
