Food: How come this boss knows everything?

Chapter 39 Cold Seaweed Shreds

A little after six in the morning, Li Rui drove to the farmers' market.

Xin'an Farmers' Market in Jianghai High-tech Zone is almost the largest farmers' market distribution center in the entire province.

This market is said to be several thousand square meters.

The dazzling array of agricultural products and various stalls made Li Rui suffer from decision-making difficulties as soon as he entered.

He quickly bought the meat and vegetables he needed for the day and left.

However, although it is an agricultural product distribution center, the prices are still not very cost-effective for small customers like him.

You can indeed pick vegetables that are fresher than those in the supermarket.

But the price is not much cheaper.

Back at the small shop on Fangda Square Pedestrian Street, Li Rui pushed all the vegetables and meat he bought into the store using a cart.

The commercial plaza was very quiet at this time and there were hardly any people around.

Today he bought some more kelp and prepared to make a small cold dish of shredded kelp.

This is the new dish unlocked today.

In addition to the cold kelp shreds, there is also a new hidden achievement:

【Eat it clean】

The reward is a golden dog bowl.

The dog bowl also has a thoughtful instruction manual: It has a smooth texture and can be licked clean by the dog without leaving any food residue.

No need to think too much.

This achievement is definitely related to the young man who took the trouble to buy a lunch box for his "friend" yesterday.

It's a hidden achievement though.

But Li Rui gradually figured out the rules that triggered these achievements.

By working hard to improve diners' satisfaction, you may be able to trigger their hidden achievements.

Li Rui found the diners' colorful stories very interesting.

Providing delicious food to diners also means indirectly participating in their lives.

However, the dog bowl given as a reward this time can only be given to Fatty Orange first.

"duang~"

Li Rui placed the food bowl next to Fat Orange's cat bed.

Fat Orange put his hands in his pockets and looked at the big guy in confusion.

It’s almost as big as my cat’s nest.

Li Rui poured some cat food in.

Fat Orange is never picky about food.

As a Chinese rural cat, it meows and wants to taste the food made by Li Rui.

As a wild cat that has caught mice and attacked birds, raw bones and meat are its favorite.

It also enjoys eating cat food and canned cat food that are tailor-made for pets.

Anyway, I just eat and sleep every day.

I've turned this place into a cat nursing home.

After feeding the cat, Li Rui also had some breakfast.

He bought a set of pancakes from the Xin'an Farmer's Market. Although they tasted good, Li Rui's taste was becoming more and more picky.

Then I started preparing today's lunch box.

He has gained experience in preparing dishes these days.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, Li Rui turned into a master of time management. He could use the water from washing rice to wash vegetables, cut vegetables while blanching, and stir-fry while stewing meat.

It is not easy for one person to prepare the amount of food for more than a hundred lunch boxes.

Fortunately, Li Rui's physical fitness and cooking skills have been strengthened.

It's not difficult to complete these tasks.

Before ten o'clock, Li Rui had finished cooking all the dishes.

At this time, the only two cold vegetable dishes left to be processed were cucumber and kelp.

In fact, strictly speaking, kelp is not a vegetarian dish. It just tastes and looks more like a vegetable and has been removed from the list of plants.

Now as a high-quality and inexpensive seafood, kelp is rich in nutritional value, but in the past only rich people could afford it.

However, the unremitting efforts of Chinese scientists have made China the country with the largest kelp production.

Before mixing the kelp, you need to blanch the purchased kelp in water.

Jianghai City is close to the sea, and the port has developed water transportation, so it is easy to buy fresh kelp. If it is dried kelp, it needs to be soaked.

Put the kelp into the pot and blanch it, add a little rice vinegar and a little cooking oil.

Rice vinegar can better remove the fishy smell of kelp, and cooking oil can make the color of kelp brighter.

It doesn’t take too long to blanch the kelp. It will turn from dark brown to green as soon as it is put into the pot.

After another two or three minutes, you can take it out.

Put the blanched kelp in cold water to cool it down, so that the kelp can maintain its crisp taste.

While the kelp is cooling in cold water, prepare the side dishes.

Cut the coriander into small pieces, flatten the onion and garlic, cut the onion into thin strips, chop the garlic, then add the chili pepper and cut it into small circles.

The cooled kelp is rolled into a roll and cut into kelp shreds.

Put the kelp shreds into a bowl and place the side dishes on top.

Heat oil in a pan and pour the hot oil on top.

The aroma of onion, garlic and chili pepper was immediately stimulated.

Then add light soy sauce, rice vinegar, chicken essence and sugar and mix well.

It is more convenient to mix cold dishes in a large bowl.

Sometimes people find cooking at home too troublesome, so they put all the seasonings on a plate and then mix them with chopsticks, which actually makes it more troublesome.

The mixed kelp shreds are stir-fried with hot oil and are full of fragrance.

Li Rui couldn't help it and picked out some to taste.

The taste is smooth, tender and chewy.

It’s really good. It’s a delicious appetizer and goes well with rice.

The advantage of being a chef is that you can taste freshly cooked dishes every time.

Today's meal was ready, and Li Rui went out again to drive the dining truck over.

Li Rui kept the QR code at the door and also pasted a layer of transparent tape on it.

This way it would be more convenient for someone to find him.

After driving the food truck over, Li Rui ran into an acquaintance.

Wang Aiquan who sells beer next door.

Wang Aiquan greeted Li Rui with a smile:

"Brother Li, I haven't seen you for a few days. You bought a new car. Your business is good."

The two of them were sitting next to each other at the barbecue stall.

Li Rui moved to Fonda Plaza and became Wang Aiquan's neighbor.

He hadn't seen Wang Aiquan for a few days.

These days "Unrestrained, Indulgent and Free" hasn't said much in the group.

Li Rui couldn't help but ask:

"What have you been busy with these days, Brother Wang? I haven't seen you."

Wang Aiquan smiled and said, "Brother, my wife is pregnant with our second child. I went to the hospital for a prenatal checkup these two days."

"congratulations."

Wang Aiquan said, "It's all thanks to you. We didn't have sex for more than a year. After eating your roasted kidneys, guess what, we were able to have sex in no time."

Mr. Wang next door should not worry about Mr. Wang next door’s problems.

It seems that he really regained his vigor after eating the roasted lamb loin.

But these days, those who dare to have a second child are warriors.

The two chatted, and Li Rui was a little curious:
"Brother Wang, is the eldest child in your family a boy or a girl?"

Wang Aiquan replied: "Boys are too naughty. We have always wanted a girl."

"Brother, when my second baby is born, you must come to my house for the full moon banquet."

"sure."

These Tianwang Aiquan had no time to chat in the group and didn't know Li Rui's recent situation, so they asked about Li Rui's new business.

It was not until this morning that I heard with my own ears that he is now selling boxed lunches on Jianghai Avenue.

He couldn't help but say with admiration:

"Oh my god, brother, your catering business is so extensive, how come you know everything?"

　Thank you for your votes
