I have become popular in modern times with food

Chapter 28 What to fear
Father Yu slid along the wall and sat on the floor, with an unknown liquid flowing from the crisper in his hand. In an instant, the whole room was filled with a sour smell.

He smiled miserably and apologized to his daughter: "It's all my fault. I knew Wang De had the intention of making trouble, so I took it lightly."

It's just that I didn't expect this person to be so despicable.On weekdays, there are many dirty things in the back kitchen, but this is a major matter related to Jinfulou's reputation. Yu Jianguo never expected that Wang De would be so confused about right and wrong.

Yu Jian pondered: "I'm afraid it's not just Wang De's handwriting."

"What did you say?" Father Yu couldn't believe it.

Yu Jian turned around, picked up the fresh-keeping box from the ground, smelled it, it was vinegar.The lotus paste soaked in vinegar has changed color, and a layer of white foam has emerged on the surface.

Anti-shape lotus seed paste... Without the main ingredient of lotus seed paste, I am afraid that this dish cannot be made.

"Wang De is just a chef. Although he is in charge of the back kitchen, he can't touch the foundation of Jin Fu Lou. I'm afraid, this is just a game set up by Han Yubai from the beginning to the end. For Jin Lao's banquet, let Dad be the chef. Until today's closing of the store..." One ring after another, it is hard to guard against.

"Impossible! This Jinfulou is the property of the Han family, who would use the property to do stupid things?" Father Yu categorically denied it.

Yu Jian sneered, and looked at her father firmly: "Although I don't know what Han Yubai is thinking, I don't believe that there is no handwriting behind it."

"That's right! I didn't expect you, girl, to be able to see clearly." There were sudden applause from the opened door, Yu Jian turned her head, and a tall figure stood there. It turned out to be the little boss of Jinfulou. Han Yubai.

Han Yubai walked into the storage room step by step. He was wearing a well-tailored suit and his shoes were shiny, which was incompatible with the sundries and vegetables piled up around him.

He frowned unnaturally again, and lightly touched the tip of his nose with his fingertips, probably because of the strong smell of vinegar.

Walking up to Yu Jian, she looked at her with a hint of appreciation: "Your name is Yu Jian? How do you know that I asked Wang De to do this?"

"Have you ever read a book?" Yu Jian asked him back.

Er... what does this mean?
Han Yubai was taken aback by her sudden question, with question marks all over his face.

Yu Jian said slowly: "The ancients said: 'At the beginning of human beings, nature is good.' But I am a supporter of evil nature from beginning to end. I also understand the truth that people are bullied when they are kind. The reason for you people to bully."

Listening to her words, Han Yubai narrowed his eyes dangerously. No one dared to talk to him like that.

What does she mean, he, Han Yubai, is a villain?

With a cold snort, what is there to justify with such a little girl: "What do you know?! It's just that we don't agree with each other!"

Then he turned to Father Yu, and his words were even more indifferent: "Master Yu, I gave you a chance, but you chose my father, so don't let him down for tonight's banquet."

After talking endlessly, he walked straight out of the kitchen.

Father Yu lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.After a long time, he murmured a few words weakly: "I'm not scared too much."

? ?
Yu Jian thought she had heard it wrong, so she approached him and asked, "What are you mumbling about?"

"I said, I'm not scared! Boss Lao Han is kind to me, and I can't betray him no matter what! What reforms to meet the needs of the market is just an excuse for not wanting to stick to my heart! Boss Han I have worked hard for Jinfulou all my life, and when I am old, I still want to fall to the ground looking at the signboard?!" Father Yu seemed to have been connected to both Ren and Du, and complained like beans, "Ah bah—I want to make old Boss Han face Sweeping the floor, I, Yu Jianguo, will be the first to disagree!"

oh hoo

Yu Jian looked at her father with admiration. As expected, the rabbit would bite people when it was in a hurry. This pushed the good man to a corner, and the aura burst out, and the power was beyond imagination.

"But...the most important dish is ruined..." Father Yu looked at the crisper in his daughter's hand with distress, and spoiled the ingredients.

Yu Jian's gaze also shifted to the lotus paste soaked in sour vinegar, and suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed across her mind.I vaguely remember that in the last years of Emperor Wu, he liked to eat radishes. After thinking about it, the cook made a heavy sour and spicy dish.

This is "Peony Jelly".

The sour taste reminded Yu Jian that the people of Tang Dynasty have a strong taste, and the ups and downs are reflected in the dishes to a great extent.Although Mr. Jin is from Chaozhou, the entire food list basically caters to the tastes of his hometown. A hot and sour dish in Pu can also reconcile his appetite.

Besides, the current situation is urgent, and it is impossible to make lotus paste again, so it is better to adjust the food list.

Father Yu was still secretly annoyed, shaking his head and sighing.

"Father, we still have a chance." Yu Jian said, although her expression was serious, she was slightly relieved.

"Oh, how do you say it?" Father Yu heard something in her words.

Yu Jian shared her thoughts with him, and Yu's father stroked his chin and began to think.

"Girl, are you sure?" He had heard of this steamed peony dish before, but it was said that the craftsmanship was complicated, and the requirements for knife and carving were extremely high. Test the skill of the chef.

These are all Yu Jian's strengths, not bragging, her basic skills are more than a little bit better than Yu's father.

Blinking playfully, he said to his father, "Don't you believe me?"

Father Yu looked at the grimace she had put in so much effort to make, and finally smiled.

Now that we have decided to fight, there is no going back!Old Boss Han, Yu Jianguo will definitely not let you lose face!
Father Yu made an oath in his heart, and joined his daughter in the battle.

The shredded radish in peony jelly is the soul. Yu Jian picked and picked in the basket, and finally found a large white radish that was still a good fit for the eyes.

The radish should be clear and clear, with a white color and no impurities.Yu Jian peeled the radish clean, cut the radish into long strips with two knives horizontally and vertically, and visually measured the length of the shredded radish.

I also found mung bean flour, spread it evenly, and steamed it in a steamer.

After fifteen minutes, take it out and put it in the freezer for a quick freeze.

Then, Yu Jian started to process the side dishes.Shred oyster mushrooms, shredded lean meat, and fungus, blanch in water, drain, add oil to the pot, put vinegar first, and after the oil and vinegar are fully blended, pour the ingredients into the frying pan and fry them quickly, and set aside for later use.

Stock is also the key to this dish.Yu Jian took out the chicken soup that was boiled yesterday, poured it into the pot, and added the crucian carp that had been stir-fried to remove the fishy smell.

In twenty minutes, the soup in the pot had turned milky white, and a strange aroma came out from the mixture of chicken and fish.Yu Jian stared at the soup for a moment, and put the spoon in her hand into the pot with precision, only taking the two spoons in the center of the roll.

Father Yu had already prepared a golden soup bowl, and when the broth was in the bowl, Yu Jian added side dishes and shredded radish one by one, and finally, only peonies were left.

Known as the king of flowers, peony is not only graceful and luxurious, but also has a strong fragrance.Datang's dishes are full of form and spirit, and they pursue the beauty of artistic conception.

Yu's father put a large piece of chicken cake steamed in the steamer in front of the case, and Yu Jian changed to a thin knife and buried her head in carving.

Between movement and stillness, the shape of the flower came out.She shook her hand, and said to Father Yu: "The knife is good..." It's really not good, this knife is already the smallest and thinnest in the kitchen, but she still has trouble holding it.

Yu Jian already misses the knife she used in Tang Dynasty, the flying knife as thin as a cicada's wing.

Father Yu stared at the chicken cake in her hand, and said perfunctorily, "I'll order you a knife later."

Yu Jian kept his promise in mind and speeded up her hand.

Five minutes later, a bright and prosperous peony was placed in the center of the golden soup, which was indescribably luxurious and gorgeous.
