Border Cook

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Zhuguo brought out a plate of meat.

The meat has a very bright reddish-brown color, and each piece is evenly sized. It is placed on a white porcelain plate like fish scales. It looks very beautiful and smells very fragrant.

Just when Manager Ge and Wu Xiong were guessing what the dish was, Jiang Zhuguo brought another plate with a few round small dishes on it, which were filled with finely chopped green onions, dark brown noodle sauce, sugar, and small pancakes that looked as thin as cicada wings.

"This is crispy roast duck." Jiang Zhuguo reported the name of the dish as usual.

"It's roast duck." Shopkeeper Ge laughed. "I've only eaten braised duck, stewed duck, and steamed duck before. I rarely eat roast duck. I need to try it."

As he spoke, Shopkeeper Ge picked up a piece of duck meat with the chopsticks in his hand and put it into his mouth.

"Manager Ge, Sister Xia said that the meat of this crispy roast duck is not to be eaten directly." Jiang Zhuguo stopped him.

Shopkeeper Ge was stunned.

If you don’t eat it directly, how should you eat it?
Seeing that Shopkeeper Ge looked confused, Jiang Zhuguo simply demonstrated it.

First, take a small pancake, pick up a piece of crispy roast duck meat, dip it in some sweet noodle sauce, then dip it in some sugar, add shredded green onions, and roll it into a small roll...

Shopkeeper Ge followed Jiang Zhuguo's example and rolled up a small pancake and put it into his mouth.

The crust is thin and tough, quite chewy, the sweet noodle sauce is rich in flavor, and the white sugar enhances the flavor...

The highlight is the crispy roast duck. The skin is really crispy, crispy and crispy. When you bite it, you can hear a slight crunching sound, and the meat next to the skin is extremely tender. After neutralizing the crispy skin, your mouth is full of the fragrant taste of duck meat.

The green onions add a slight spicy taste, which is just enough to enhance the flavor and relieve the greasiness of roast duck, which can be said to be the finishing touch.

"This crispy roast duck is delicious!" After swallowing the meat in his mouth, Shopkeeper Ge hurriedly took another small pancake to wrap the crispy roast duck.

This time, in order to satisfy the appetite even more, Shopkeeper Ge simply put in two large slices of duck meat, ready to satisfy your craving.

He didn't think it was enough for one person, so he called Wu Xiong beside him, "Try it too, this crispy roast duck is delicious!"

Wu Xiong scratched the back of his head a little embarrassedly, "Looking at the shopkeeper's expression, I think this crispy roast duck must be delicious, but my appetite is so big, I'm afraid that if I start eating, you, the shopkeeper, will have nothing to eat..."

He knows how much he eats.

If you don't eat it and just watch others eat it, at most you will drool, feel jealous, and regret not getting to eat it. But if you really eat it, I'm afraid you will find it hard to resist the charm of this crispy roast duck and start snatching food from the shopkeeper.

By then, all this crispy roast duck will definitely fall into his stomach!

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Ge fell silent. For a moment, he didn't know whether to let Wu Xiong eat the crispy roast duck or not.

Jiang Zhuguo on the side smiled and said, "Brother Wu, don't worry about eating them. Sister Xia roasted two of them. They are definitely enough for you."

These two ducks were quite large when they were bought. After being slaughtered, the meat was fat and tender, and the portion was not small, enough for two adult men to eat.

When Wu Xiong heard this, he hurriedly took the pancake with one hand and the chopsticks with the other, picked up the crispy roast duck, dipped it in sauce and sugar, and ate it with shredded green onions.

After eating a piece of crispy roast duck, Wu Xiong also exclaimed, "It's so delicious."

"Is that so?" Shopkeeper Ge also nodded repeatedly.

The two continued to feast on the roast duck, praising it again and again. "Sister Xia said that it is hard to find in winter now. If cucumbers are in season, and some peeled cucumbers are added, it will be more fragrant and refreshing." Jiang Zhuguo said.

Shopkeeper Ge looked again and again at the crispy roast duck pancake he had just rolled up.

Even without the cucumber shreds that Madam Jiang mentioned, this crispy roast duck is already very delicious. If some cucumber shreds were added, I really don’t know how much more delicious it would be.

But it doesn't matter...

Shopkeeper Ge smiled and said, "It's not a difficult task. Some places have greenhouses that can grow fruits and vegetables in winter. They are just as delicious as those grown in summer. Just go and find some."

By then, this crispy roast duck will not only be more delicious, but also appear more precious. It can definitely become the signature dish of the restaurant in the future!
Shopkeeper Ge and Wu Xiong were enjoying the crispy roast duck and munching on it with hearty bites. Xia Mingyue, who was busy making vegetarian pot stickers in the kitchen, smiled from ear to ear.

As expected, no one can resist the delicious taste of roast duck, which is a state banquet dish.

What's more, she uses the Bianyifang oven roast duck technique. During the roasting process, no open flame is seen on the duck, so that the roasted duck has a date red skin, shiny and crispy skin, tender meat and delicious taste.

It's probably difficult to be unpopular.

However, no matter how delicious this crispy roast duck is, the entire restaurant cannot sell only this dish. You have to try other dishes, right?
Xia Mingyue thought so, and so did Manager Ge and Wu Xiong.

After suppressing the urge to continue eating the crispy roast duck, Shopkeeper Ge began to try other dishes.

The lotus root in ginger lotus root slices is extremely crisp, has a sweet and sour taste, and is full of ginger aroma.

The cold preserved eggs have a strong aroma and a special taste. They are served in a crescent shape, which looks very nice.

The dry-fried salt and pepper mushrooms are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, salty and delicious. They are very satisfying to eat and are even more enjoyable than eating meat.

Dezhou Braised Chicken has a fragrant aroma, golden color, tender meat and pure flavor. It is spiced and boneless and extremely delicious.

The braised pork has a bright color and is cooked to just the right degree, making it extremely soft and tender and melts in your mouth. The meat is made up of fat and lean meat, which is fatty but not greasy, delicious and you will never get tired of eating it.

Luoyang cabbage is fragrant and delicious, the cabbage is fresh and slightly sweet, and the meat slices are soft and delicious...

After tasting all the dishes, Shopkeeper Ge put down his chopsticks and said solemnly, "I regret it a little."

Regret?

What do you regret?
Do you regret opening a restaurant with Madam Xia?

Wu Xiong's heart skipped a beat. "Boss, I've almost explained everything to Madam Xia. It's not appropriate to regret it now..."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Shopkeeper Ge rolled his eyes at Wu Xiong, "I regret trying so many dishes from Madam Xia at once!" (End of this chapter)
