Food: How come this boss knows everything?

Chapter 36 Self-deception scale

Selling boxed lunches is much easier than selling skewers, and the stall can be closed earlier.

In this way, Li Rui can live a more leisurely life every afternoon.

He enjoys this kind of life.

Selling food outside allows you to meet different people every day, encounter many new things, and experience many interesting stories.

It’s also very fulfilling to see these diners raving about the food I cooked.

The next morning, Li Rui still got up early.

If he wasn't selling barbecue at night, he wouldn't have the habit of staying up too late.
He first checked the settlement of the early morning system.

New dish: stir-fried cabbage with soybean sauce.

There is also a hidden achievement [Double Happiness] that can be achieved.

The reward for this achievement is a digital scale called the "Self-Deception Scale".

Li Rui suddenly remembered Jiang Hai and Eddie Peng who had ordered two box lunches yesterday and finished them on the spot.

He remembered that this brother was still losing weight.

It seems that Li Rui was quite satisfied with the meal yesterday, which triggered this achievement.

Li Rui put the scale on the ground, took off his shoes and stood on it.

I want to see what kind of self-deception this is.

The electronic scale announced Li Rui's weight.

"Your weight is 74.8 kg, which is the standard weight."

?

“I used to be this weight.”

Self-deception scale, Li Rui looked at the name of the scale in confusion.

He suddenly understood.

74.8kg is within the standard weight range for a height of 180cm.

There is no need to deceive.

He took the scale outside and picked up the fat orange again. Li Rui often bought vegetables at the market, so he knew it weighed about ten pounds.

Fat Orange is a typical Chinese rural cat, with a standard weight of about ten kilograms.

Li Rui put the fat orange on the electronic scale.

Voice broadcast:

"The system is correcting. Your weight is 4.7 kg, which is the standard weight."

Sure enough, Fat Orange’s weight was corrected to 4.7 kilograms.

"You should lose some weight, too."

Fat Orange was sitting on the scale cooperatively with its tail on its front paws. When it heard Li Rui's words, it raised its head and meowed.

It seemed that he did not agree with what the human in front of him said.

Li Rui smiled and touched the cat's head.

I hope I won't need to use this thing in the future.

Then he put away the electronic scale and placed it in the cabinet on the second floor.

There was also a large oven and two pokers in the cabinet. They were dazzlingly golden, but no one would believe that these things were made of gold.

Come back from buying fresh meat and vegetables.

Li Rui started preparing today's lunch box again.

There are still two large pots of rice, stewed meat and braised chicken legs in the pot.

Next is cooking.

The newly unlocked stir-fried cabbage with soybean sauce is also a delicious home-cooked dish.

The lard from frying the pork belly can be used to stir-fry this dish.

Opinion in the media has changed rapidly in recent years.

Animal oils such as lard are representative of edible oils with high saturated fatty acids.

It was once a part of the traditional Chinese diet, but later became the culprit of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Now it’s back on people’s dining tables.

This involved a lot of game-playing between scientific research and interest groups.

But for a cook,
Cooking with lard is really more fragrant than cooking with vegetable oil.

And dishes that are stuck to the pan with lard are easier to clean than those with vegetable oil.

In fact, for daily diet, it is just like the combination of meat and vegetables, stir-fried cabbage with sauce and stewed meat.

Lard and vegetable oil can be used interchangeably.

No oil is absolutely healthy, and the relative amount must be controlled.

Add lard to the pan.

Then add the shredded cabbage into the pan and stir-fry. The hand-shredded cabbage is more flavorful.

When tearing the cabbage, Li Rui also removed the long white tendons.

The stalks of cabbage not only affect the taste, but also have a different cooking time from the green leaves, so they often have an earthy taste when fried.

Stir-frying in a hot pan with hot oil can quickly lock in the moisture of the cabbage.

The stir-fried cabbage with sauce will not become sandy.

Fry the cabbage until it is 70% to 80% cooked and has yellow and slightly burnt spots on the surface. Remove from the dish and set aside.

At this time, the cabbage has a slightly burnt smell if you smell it carefully. Li Rui, who has done barbecue before, is very familiar with this smell.

Next, make the sauce for the stir-fried cabbage.

The sauce for this dish is mainly composed of noodle sauce and soy sauce. The sauce is made with a 1:1 ratio of sweet noodle sauce and soy sauce. In order to ensure that the pan does not get stuck when frying the sauce, a little rice wine is also added.

Continue to pour oil in the pan.

Add scallions, ginger, garlic and dried chilies to the pan, turn to low heat, add the sauce made from sweet bean sauce and light soy sauce, and stir-fry until fragrant.

The noodle sauce and soy sauce are salty enough, so there is no need to add salt.

If you want the sauce of the stir-fried cabbage to hang on the leaves, you also need to add white sugar to the pot.

Stir-fry the sauce until it thickens.

Stir-fry the sauce for a few times, then add the cabbage into the pot.

The cabbage has been fried on high heat until it is 70% to 80% cooked. Stir-fry it a few times so that the sauce is coated on the cabbage and then it is ready to be served.

The stir-fried cabbage with sauce has a strong flavor and is green and refreshing.

It is also a dish that goes well with rice.

It can be eaten with a large chicken leg or a few pieces of stewed meat. It is a combination of meat and vegetables and has a balanced nutrition, making it a perfect roadside lunch.

Today's meal was ready. Li Rui went out and drove the light truck to the door and loaded the food into the truck.

There is a sign hanging at the door now, "Lunch boxes are not for sale to the public at the moment. If you are interested, please go to the intersection of Jianghai Avenue and Ganghang Road."

There's nothing I can do. These past two days, someone has been knocking on the door and asking questions after smelling the smell.

Once or twice, Li Rui could sell a few copies in advance.

But if there are too many people, it will be too troublesome.

You can only hang up the sign first.

After all, the main battlefield for lunch box sales is Jianghai Avenue.

11:30, Jiulong Driving School, Jianghai City.

Wei Ting, dressed up carefully, arrived at her father's workplace early, waiting to practice driving together at noon.

However, the students Wei Zhang met today were a bit tricky.

Even this gold medal coach is exhausted.

It was not until almost twelve o'clock that the training car was pushed out of the ditch.

After criticizing the difficult student, Wei Zhang realized that his daughter was already waiting for him at the driving school.

Wei Zhang looked at his daughter with some surprise.

"Didn't you say you didn't want to learn anymore?"

Wei Ting tilted her head and said, "Ah? Did I say that?"

The gold medal coach wiped his sweat, he had no idea what to do with his daughter.

"Okay, if you say practice, then we'll practice. But we have to change the car at noon today."

Because his daughter was too difficult to teach, Wei Zhang decided to use his personal time at noon to take her to practice driving.

The father and daughter came to the parking lot next to them and got in the car.

One step, two shift, three lights, four horns, five hand brakes, Wei Ting did a very good job.

But the real test comes when you release the clutch.

Wei Zhang asked her tentatively: "How do your feet feel today?"

"Boom~"

Wei Ting stepped on the accelerator.

Then the horns slightly raised, "Very good."

After saying that, she lifted the clutch swiftly, followed by second gear, third gear, fourth gear, and fifth gear.

Santana rushed out of the driving school and sped along the road.

Wei Zhang looked at his daughter's rapidly improving driving skills in amazement. He couldn't help but hold the passenger seat handle and put his foot on the brake.

"Slow down, I'm telling you, I can brake here."

Wei Ting didn't answer.

Slow down? I can't slow down at all. I'm in a hurry to buy lunch.
