Food: How come this boss knows everything?

Chapter 182 A day for food lovers, starting from the vegetable market

Simply mediated a small misunderstanding between two employees in the store,

Li Rui also returned home.

There are three cats waiting for him at home.

I have to say that only cats have good nutrition. Less than 20 days old, the kitten can already crawl and walk.

After hearing Li Rui's call, he would move towards him curiously.

But he walked unsteadily.

The lower plate is not very stable yet.

Cats are very cute when they are young and are very curious about everything.

Sometimes you can see it licking its fur, imitating the calico.

Or you can imitate Fat Orange and climb onto the sweeping robot.

And every time the kitten comes near,
The sweeping robots are all very careful.

In the past two days, the shop has been making pasta, which has made many carb lovers very excited.

Li Rui still takes advantage of his free time.
Some noodle making methods were posted on the video account.

"Oh, this bamboo noodles looks authentic."
-
"Where are you from, old handsome man?"
-
"So this is how bamboo noodles are made. You really can't learn this."
-
"It's all because Boss Li made too many delicious dishes [covering face]"

﹀
It seems like it is raining: "I don't understand why you need to knead the dough to make noodles [Results Display]."
-
"Sister, you have mastered the technique of making fried dumplings. It should be good to make the dumplings smaller next time. Come on."
-
"【Photo】The noodles made by Boss Li, to set the record straight."
-
"Looking at the picture above, I feel like this fried sauce was bought in a store when it was raining."

﹀
Late at night, the system settled.

New hidden achievement achieved - [Small stature, big bamboo]

The reward is a bamboo seed with a flower pot.

To put it another way, the reward is a flower pot, and the system comes with a prompt: it contains a bamboo seed.

Li Rui probably knew that the growth period of bamboo seedlings was very long.
It takes longer for it to break out of the ground than for a kitten to learn to walk.

It will not grow taller than the house in a short period of time.

So he took the flower pot out and temporarily placed it in the living room.

And a new noodle dish was unlocked.
It is mutton stewed noodles.

Mutton stewed noodles is a classic noodle dish in the Central Plains. It is nourishing and healthy and very suitable for consumption in winter.

After briefly reading the recipe, Li Rui wanted to have a bowl in the middle of the night.

Sometimes being a cook is difficult.

the next day.

Shortly after getting up in the morning, Xiaodong issued a weather alert:
"Today will be the first snowfall of the second half of the year, please pay attention to driving safety."

Li Rui came to the balcony and looked at the weather outside.

It's really gloomy.

The weather has not been very good these two days.

Fat Orange seemed to be aware of the climate change. In addition to changing his fur, he no longer followed Li Rui out.

But the bamboo seedlings on the balcony,

The growth is somewhat surprising.

Yesterday, there was no trace of it in the flowerpot.

Green shoots have already appeared today.

The house is warm in winter, so it shouldn't grow like this, right?

Li Rui was a little puzzled, but he didn't care too much.

I still plan to keep this bamboo as a potted plant for the time being.

After leaving home, Li Rui went to buy food.

The familiar Xingfuli Vegetable Market,
Enthusiastic old Jin.

"Here you are, Boss Li, what do you want to buy today?"

Lao Jin might be more familiar with the boss in front of him than Li Rui's customers.

Li Rui took out his mobile phone and took a quick look at the ingredients in the store through Xiaodong.

The beef and chili stew can be used for a few more days because it enriches the subsequent pasta dishes.

The fried sauce is fried in a large pot at one time, and after cooling, it is sealed in a fresh-keeping box and stored in the refrigerator.

There is no need to prepare either of these.

Just make and heat.

(Whether it is home-made or run in a store, the stewed noodles, such as fried sauce and flat noodle stew, can be made in a certain amount at one time and then stored for multiple consumption.)
Wontons require fresh meat and fresh shrimp.

Purchase must be made on the same day.

There is also the mutton in the mutton stewed noodles.

"Old Jin, six lamb hind legs, one lamb spine, and two pork belly."

“Guaranteed fresh.”

Lao Jin smiled and said: "Don't worry, brother, the sheep was still there the day before yesterday."

"Hulunbuir prairie, right?"

Before Lao Jin finished speaking, Li Rui guessed what the old man wanted to say. "But why is there one more day?" Li Rui asked.

Lao Jin explained: "It's due to weather and transportation issues."

Although Li Rui always went to Boss Jin to buy meat.

However, the major categories of meat, such as beef, mutton, pork, and chicken, are actually placed separately in three stalls.

The other two stalls are his employees and relatives.

Lao Jin is quite powerful in the Xingfuli vegetable market.

After buying the meat, Lao Jin and Li Rui personally carried the items to the car.

Li Rui went back to the vegetable market with him.

I also bought some cucumbers, green vegetables, kelp, day lily and other side dishes.

A food lover’s day starts at the vegetable market.

However, due to the recent drop in temperature, the prices of many vegetables have rebounded to varying degrees.

Since arriving in Jianghai, Li Rui often buys meat and vegetables.

In terms of sourcing meat, I got to know the reliable Boss Jin and the boss of the seafood stall, You Dahai.

But there has never been a good channel for vegetables.

The farmers’ market has a wide variety of products, but it requires you to get up early.

With Li Rui's size, there isn't much of a discount.

For fresh vegetables, some online channels such as "MoLu" and "MoCai" sometimes offer group purchase prices, and some categories can be cheaper than the market. However, they can only be delivered to your door the next day, and the quality is sometimes difficult to predict in advance.

For non-fresh food products, "Moduoduo" and "Mobaba" are doing quite well.

Therefore, when Li Rui wants to buy vegetables, he goes to the vegetable market most often.

Li Rui also asked Lao Jin for advice on buying groceries.

Boss Jin pulled Li Rui into the stall that time:

"Brother, this is too complicated. Just look at the commercial streets and restaurants nearby. These vegetable vendors know exactly what the boss looks like, which ones are newly opened, which ones are closed, and what their size is."

When describing other vegetable vendors, he naturally did not forget to praise himself.

Li Rui thought it was reasonable.

Shopping for groceries takes time, but now you have to come and see for yourself.

Give it to the clerk?

Although there is no need to worry about Xiao Ma taking kickbacks,

But I am worried that she will be deceived and then get angry and embarrassed.

Back to the Fonda Plaza shop,

Today's work is not as heavy as yesterday's.
In addition to fried sauce and beef stew, the pressed bamboo noodles can also be used for two days.

All you need to do is prepare the mutton noodle stew and wrap some wontons.

Lao Jin has helped separate the meat and bones of the lamb leg.

When I grilled lamb skewers before, it was a little more expensive to buy lamb leg meat alone, but it was cheaper to buy it with bones.

Mutton noodle stew requires the use of leg bones and spine parts to make soup.

So the leg bone was also brought back by Li Rui.

The first step in making soup is still to wash and blanch the ingredients.

Skim off the floating foam and impurities to remove the fishy smell and mutton smell.

Clean and set aside.

Lao Jin’s mutton has always been of good quality.

When making soup, you don't need too many spices.

The most authentic mutton noodle stew does not contain too many seasonings in the soup.

The taste is just like the freshness of mutton.

Just use a small amount of light-colored spices such as angelica, white pepper, ginger slices, and fennel to help remove the fishy smell.

The steps for making soup are the same as those for making stock.

Put the lamb bones into the pot first.

Bring to a boil over high heat to emulsify the protein and fat, forming a natural milky white color.

after an hour,
Add the lamb into the pot as well.

Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to simmer.

Season with salt, pepper and chicken stock.

Cook until the mutton is soft and can be easily pierced with chopsticks, then remove and cut into cubes.

At this time, the shop assistant also came to work.

The room was filled with fragrance. In order to run the store with less repetitive conversations, Li Rui stared at the clerk Xiao Ma.

"It's so cold today."

Majengo said with a smile.
