Don't pretend, I'm the God of Cooking and I'll showdown!

Chapter 567 Geng Lishan: I'm very curious about chicken tip soup!Lin Xu: Then let me arrange it? 【add 5】

"Just after a meal, Master taught me to make dry croquettes by the way."

Although Lin Xu enjoyed eating melons, he didn't want to spread gossip about his master, so he took the initiative to chat about the dry croquettes he had just learned.

Upon hearing this, Geng Lele became interested:
"Brother Xu, can you do it now? My grandma volunteered to make dry croquettes during the Spring Festival this year, but they were all mushy and turned into a pile of black coal balls..."

With her leadership, Chen Yan also talked about the fact that she didn't enjoy eating at grandma's house.

It's not that the food is not tasty, it's mainly because the relatives in the family asked Ren Jie why he didn't come, did they look down on him?
After a while, he said that he was listed as an old man, and asked Ren Jie to help him think of a way, so that Chen Yan used an excuse to go to the bathroom when he was halfway through eating, and drove to find Shu Yun and Dou Wenjing.

Every festival, there are always some relatives who are out of touch with each other and have little contact with each other to visit.

It is said that relatives need to move around more, but the words are crying poor, want to borrow money, want to start a business, and want to arrange a job for the children in the family that is not tiring, does not work overtime, and pays a good salary.

Chen Yan was very annoying, so she spent almost all of the Spring Festival in Lin's shop.

Seeing that everyone's interest has been raised, Lin Xu took the initiative to say:

"Well, I'll go to the back kitchen to make some for you now, and let you taste the dry croquettes at the state banquet level, how different it is from home."

The perfect dry croquettes will definitely make these women forget about gossip.

As for Dundun who came over to join in the fun, Lin Xu hugged him in his arms and asked him a multiple-choice question:
"Do you want to eat bullfrogs?"

Dundun rubbed his big head on Lin Xu's face without thinking.

Obviously, compared to coming to join in the fun and listen to gossip, Kitty Maomao prefers to eat meat.

Putting Dundun on the service desk, Lin Xu went to the aquarium to pick up some bullfrogs, just as Chen Yuanyuan came back, saw Lin Xu holding the bullfrog, and asked curiously:

"Brother, is this going to be a dry pot bullfrog?"

"Steam it for Dundun. If you want to eat dry pot bullfrog, I can make some. There is dry pot sauce in the kitchen. It is still very simple to make dry pot bullfrog."

"Okay, you can do it, let me communicate with Mr. Dou about the places I ran today."

In the afternoon, Chen Yuanyuan ran to several places and looked at the shops that she had seen on the Internet, only to find that half of them were fraudulent.

The store is that store, but the surrounding environment is not as good as it says on the Internet.

One is next to a garbage station, one is next to a public toilet, and the other is in a residential area. After reading it, she looked for other ones nearby, which turned out to be very rewarding.

Now she has to discuss with Dou Wenjing whether to rent them together and open the store slowly, or rent the first batch of stores first, and talk about the rest later.

Lin Xu caught a few more bullfrogs, went upstairs, and handed the bullfrogs to Che Zai:

"Clean it up, remove the skin, steam three of them for Dundun, chop the others into large pieces, and marinate them with onion ginger cooking wine and salt-sugar oyster sauce."

"What is the boss going to do?"

"Dried pot bullfrog, by the way, get some fat sausage, I'll add it later."

"okay!"

Lin Xu changed his clothes, washed his hands carefully, and then started making dry croquettes.

There is salt and pepper sauce in the store, so there is no need to prepare it, and the tiger sauce is too late now, so I don’t prepare it. Anyway, these girls eat dry croquettes, and there is a high probability that the dipping sauce will be replaced with tomato sauce in the end.

Marinate the chopped meat with condiments, onion, ginger, pepper, and other ingredients.

Che Zai also prepared the bullfrog and fat intestines.

First make the dry pot fat intestine frog for sister Yuanyuan to have dinner, and come here after work until dark, must be starving.

However, as soon as he brought this spicy and delicious dish outside, before Chen Yuanyuan, who was chatting about work, had time to eat it, Chen Yan, Shen Jiayue and Geng Lele surrounded her.

"It smells good, it's fragrant and spicy."

"There are fat intestines, no wonder it's so delicious."

"Wow, French fries, this is my favorite dry pot side dish, Brother Xu, can I taste the saltiness for Sister Yuanyuan?"

Lin Xu smiled helplessly:

"Haven't you all had dinner?"

"I'm not too full, I want to have some more."

Not far away, Chen Yuanyuan, who was telling Dou Wenjing the location of the store, said:
"Eat, eat, just leave me a bite."

As soon as Geng Lele heard it, he went to the disinfection cabinet to get the dishes, chopsticks and plates, and ordered three small bowls of rice by the way.

Such a good dry pot dish, how can it be done without rice?
I can't be sorry for Brother Xu's hard work.

In this way, several people started to eat the second round of dinner with rice.

"Yueyue, what did you eat at Chef Gao's house? Are the dishes rich?"

"The dishes are all exquisite, well-presented, and taste good, but they are all bland. Maybe the master, mother-in-law and Aunt Lucy are not used to heavy dishes... By the way, Aunt Lucy is going to the Department of Foreign Languages ​​at Peking University. How about it?" I don’t know about the operation, it should be an external contract.”

The teacher is rich and well-connected, so it is very easy to find a job for Comrade Wang Cuihua. After all, Wang Cuihua also graduated from an Ivy League school. She came to China somehow, and then met her Robin.

Speaking of it, it was also Master who provoked him, but whether it should be said or not, at such an age, Master can still practice English to the point where he can speak fluently with foreigners, and people have to sigh Neptune's learning ability.

After Chen Yuanyuan chatted with Dou Wenjing, there were five people eating.

Fortunately, Zeng Xiaoqi went to visit Qi's house with her parents today, otherwise the scene of six women sitting around and chatting gossip would definitely make people afraid to approach.

Not long after, Lin Xu made dry croquettes.

When he brought it out, he also brought a serving of steamed pork ribs and chicken feet in black bean sauce.

"Eat slowly, I'll go to the back kitchen to see how everyone is working."

Lin Xu put the dishes on the large tray on the table, then returned to the kitchen, carefully watching the work of each post.

If you are away during this time, you have to observe the situation in the back kitchen. If there is a decline in quality control, you must beat it, and you must not let the quality of the dishes decline.

Outside, everyone tasted the delicious dry croquettes, and they were all amazed by the crispy outside and tender inside.

Although this is a relatively homely dish in the capital, and can be ordered in countless restaurants, there are less than three that can achieve Lin Xu's level.

Chen Yan said:

"Tomorrow I have to bring my parents to try it. The meatballs taste really good."

Geng Lele also said that he would let his grandpa come and taste it. By the way, he suggested that Lin Xu make a video of making croquettes. Such a delicious dish should not be hidden.

Lin Xu walked around the back kitchen and went back outside again. Little Mushroom Head shared his thoughts with him.

"The video will be shot, but not yet. When the people in the store are on vacation, we will update a wave of dishes, including dry croquettes, salted duck, and salt-fried lamb."

The dishes you learn have to be used to make money.

Only dishes that can be cashed in are good dishes. If they cannot be cashed in, it can only be said that they have been eliminated by the market and should be taken off the shelves.

Hearing what he said, Chen Yan and the others all looked forward to it.

I always feel that with this new launch, the store's business will usher in a new wave of peaks.

For the next two days, Lin Xu couldn't care less about the affairs of the store.

He first took Dundun and Brother Feng to the headquarters of Maisa Rui to sign a promotion contract, re-drafted various rights and obligations, and presented several car models, one of which was Lin Xu's red-lined G63.

After signing the contract, Dundun will broadcast live in the future, and you can put a car model of Maeser next to it. By placing advertisements in this way, more and more people will know about the world's largest car modification brand.

Just after the signing ceremony was completed, Shen Guofu drove his Bentley to pick up a car.

Without an existing car, the big boss directly ordered a black and white two-color G63 and a mocha gray G63.

Old Shen prefers black and white. His Mercedes-Benz Big G used to be in this color, and now he has re-selected a similar color, but the configuration and interior of the car are much higher than the original Mercedes-Benz Big G.

As for the mocha gray one, it was for Chen Meiliang.

After finishing the matter here, Lin Xu picked up the couple Shang Weixing and Zeng Xiaoqi's parents who came to the capital, and went to the Ginkgo Garden to start working.

The content of the work is not troublesome. Now it is necessary to tidy up, clean up some construction waste and so on, and prepare the environment of the entire park.

Several aunts hired by the park before also came to work together.

They are all middle-aged people in their fifties, but they chat very enthusiastically. There are two aunts who are even from the northern Jiangsu of Zeng Xiaoqi's parents, so everyone is not unfamiliar.

Lin Xu brought rice, flour, grain and oil, and asked them to start their own business first.

Wait for my parents to come over later, and then officially enter the operation stage.

After finishing the matter here, Lin Xu, Shen Jiayue and Shen Guofu walked around relatives. They were not in the capital during the Chinese New Year, but now that they are back, they naturally need to walk around among relatives.

Of course, the Shen family doesn't have many relatives, mainly the Han family.

Before, a cousin applied eye drops in front of Mrs. Han, saying that Yueyue would not bring the bridegroom to her home for New Year's greetings in the first year of marriage, and she had to beat her.

As a result, she was furiously scolded by Mrs. Han.

There are always some people who like to point fingers at other people's lives even though their lives are a mess.

After visiting relatives, Lin Xu took the time to have a meal with his classmates who worked hard in the capital. Instead of eating in his own restaurant, he went with his classmates to a small mutton restaurant near the school.

Everyone can't let it go in your own store, it's better to go to a commemorative place.

For example, the mutton restaurant near the school was a place where everyone used to have dinner together when they were in school. At that time, there was not much money, and they didn’t dare to open up the meat, so they could only order more cabbage leaf tofu and vermicelli.

Now that everyone has jobs and income, they can relax and eat.

One catty of mutton per person, and ordered snacks such as sugar pancakes, and agreed to get together later, if everyone had any difficulties, just speak up.

Can help, absolutely.

Lin Xu didn't talk too much, he really recommended a classmate who was somewhat introverted but had solid basic skills, and went to the audit office where Shen Jiayue worked before.

The remuneration of the audit firm is not too high in the financial industry, but it is easy and stable.

If you want to make money, you can also take on private jobs.

As far as Shen Jiayue knows, many people in the audit office work as part-time accountants outside. They usually have nothing to do, and they can just help with tax filing during the tax filing period. All these things add up to make a lot of money every month.

After all these things were busy, Lin Xu finally devoted himself to work.

He introduced new dishes in the store that he hadn't had time to serve a few years ago, and invited professors and scholars such as Geng Lishan, Uncle Zhou, Professor Xu, Ren Chongmo, Tian Qinglan, and Cui Qingyuan who came back from Shanghai, to taste them in the store. Some new dishes.

These dishes include Taiji Chicken Porridge, Three Sets of Duck, Crispy Red Chicken, Furong Sea Pine, Grilled Whole Pig Head, Silver Lung in Clear Soup, Salted Duck, Flame Drunken Goose, Fried Lamb with Salt, White Water Sheep Head, Dry Fried Balls, Yipin Tofu, etc. dishes.

In theory, these dishes will all be served in the store.

But for the most part, you need to spend a lot of money to book in advance.

In addition, some people need to hold high-end business banquets, and the store also provides high-end dishes.

Most of the dishes here are not new for ordinary customers, mainly to find a way to spend money for those wealthy people who like to be arty.

This is also the reason why the professors from Tsinghua University and Peking University were invited to a banquet.

They have a lot of contact with people in this field, if they can attract a few rich people who don't care about the money and only want delicious food, wouldn't it be a good net profit.

"After listening to Boss Lin's explanation, I realized that these three sets of ducks actually imply the idea in "The Analects" that gentlemen are harmonious but different, and villains are similar but not harmonious. Delicious food with cultural guidance is really worthy of literati cuisine."

At the dining table, Professor Xu, who usually doesn't talk much, was full of excitement at this moment.

I am happy because I have tasted the three sets of ducks that have been legendary for a long time, and at the same time I am happy because I have eaten a dish created under the guidance of literati.

As expected of the three sets of ducks, the soup is clear yet timeless, and the seasoning is simple yet delicious. It is indeed a representative dish of Huaiyang cuisine. The taste and texture are really memorable.

Cui Qingyuan wiped the soup from the corner of his mouth and said with a smile:

"In the past, I have tasted three sets of ducks in Shanghai and Yangzhou, but Boss Lin is the only one who can make a humanistic flavor and at the same time completely show the harmony of gentlemen. !"

His proposal was approved by everyone, and everyone raised their glasses, happy to eat such a delicious dish.

In addition to the three sets of duck, other dishes made everyone feel comfortable and satisfied, and many of the dishes were only seen in books, and they were remembered by senior literati in books or notes.

But in reality, there are not many that can be eaten.

Among other things, as far as Liang Shiqiu's dry croquettes are concerned, there are not many restaurants in Beijing that can achieve the deliciousness he described.

But Lin Xu made it, and when he just dipped it in salt and pepper, the sentence in "Ya She Tan Eating" flashed in his mind unconsciously.

What I couldn't help swallowing when I read it in the early years has become a reality now.

Let everyone have an echo across time and space with the cultural people of the Republic of China period on the psychological level.

This is the charm of food, but also the charm of words.

Not long after, the clear soup Yinfei was served.

For a dish like silver lung, everyone thought it was just a simple pig lung when they first saw it.

But after tasting the melt-in-your-mouth taste and hearing Lin Xu's explanation, everyone realized that they had really underestimated the charm of this dish and the masters of Huaiyang cuisine.

Not many people can achieve this level of ingredients that are not on the table like pig lungs.

While drinking this delicious soup, Professor Xu's wife, Aunt Xue, said with a smile:

"The ancients seem to have studied soup very deeply. The sea pine and silver lungs that I just ate, ordinary people really can't figure out this method, it's too much effort."

Ren Chongmo smiled:

"In ancient times, people had a lot of time and little information, especially those salt merchants in Yangzhou who put all their minds on gardening and food, so as to open up the circle of scribes, and the chefs under them naturally tried their best to please the master."

After speaking, he looked at Geng Lishan and asked:
"Mr. Lishan should have a deep research on this kind of food, right?"

"I've done some research. I watched "Jin Ping Mei" and "Dream of Red Mansions" before, and I also deliberately studied some of the delicacies recorded above, such as Song Yulian's stewed pig's head in rock sugar. I wondered if it was the predecessor of roasting the whole pig's head."

The stewed pig's head in rock sugar in "Jin Ping Mei" has appeared many times, and the author rewrites every time that only a piece of firewood is needed to burn the pig's head until it becomes soft.

Countless people want to know how to stew with a firewood.

After eating the roasted whole pig's head made by Lin Xu, Geng Lishan felt that it should be Lin Xu's method of first removing the bone and then stewing it. The reason why he emphasized one firewood is probably because the whole process needs to be kept on a low fire.

Moreover, as a literati, the author of "Jin Ping Mei" should not know how to cook, so he wrote it like this.

Tian Qinglan took a sip of Yinfei Decoction:
"There are indeed a lot of delicacies in "Jin Ping Mei", and various banquets of various sizes are also described in detail, which provides powerful help for future generations to study the market culture of the Ming Dynasty...I don't know which dish Mr. Lishan is most impressed by?"

Geng Lishan smiled:

"In the past, I was interested in silver fish soup. I was very curious why Sun Xue'e was beaten because of this dish, which made me full of sympathy for the character Sun Xue'e... When I tasted the silver fish soup made by Lin Xiaoyou, I watched it again "Jin Ping Mei", I found another dish that I am interested in, and it is also a delicacy that made me sigh for a long time."

Although Uncle Zhou is in the management team, he usually has a deep research on ancient popular culture.

Upon hearing this, he asked:

"The chicken tip soup that cost Sun Xue'e her life?"

Geng Lishan nodded:
"Think about the society in ancient times. Sun Xue'e had a top cooking skill, but she couldn't show it. She was beaten because of silver fish soup, and died because of chicken tip soup... What a miserable woman. Every time I read this, I feel A living person died before me."

Literati are more likely to be sad about spring and autumn.

Although it is because their emotions are more sensitive, it also shows from the side that even after hundreds of years, the text can still accurately convey the emotions and intentions the author wants to express.

After Geng Lishan finished speaking, the others felt sorry for him and agreed with his words.

Lin Xu saw that everyone was sighing for Sun Xue'e, and the atmosphere was not good, so he asked:
"Do you... want to taste the taste of chicken tip soup?"

Cui Qingyuan immediately regained his spirit:
"You can do it?"

Geng Lishan swept away the decadence just now:

"Since I asked this question, I can definitely do it... Lin Xiaoyou, if you can let me taste the chicken soup today, you can choose all the calligraphy and paintings in my house! Qi Baishi's, Xu Beihong's, Zhang Daqian's... I can't collect their calligraphy and paintings Little, it will allow me to get what I want, and I will hand it over."

Lin Xu: "..."

It's just a bowl of soup, isn't it?
He said quickly:
"No, no, no, you said so so that I dare not do anything. If you are disappointed, it's not a waste of money."

No wonder cultural people can't do business.

As soon as the boss wants to give away the family property, no matter how big the family business is, it can't be done like this.

Although the others did not speak, their eyes were full of eagerness.

Obviously, everyone wants to try the taste of chicken tip soup.

Lin Xu got up and said:

"Sit down, I'll make this soup to satisfy your curiosity!"
