Chapter 78 Loach Drilled Tofu

Deshunlou's dishes are good, but most of them are well-prepared, like a dignified beauty, more than stable, not lively enough, and lacking a little aura!

If there are distinguished guests coming to Longtan Town for dinner, Deshun Building is naturally the first choice, and it will never embarrass the owner, but there will not be distinguished guests every day, and the rich people with a radius of ten miles are the most entertained on weekdays. These people eat well on weekdays There are too many, the mouth is full, and I always change the way to eat some dishes that I have never eaten before. Therefore, whenever a new restaurant opens in the town, as long as the food is good, it will always be prosperous for a while, and the business of these old restaurants will naturally also will be affected.

It is an indisputable fact that the same dish, cooked by a hundred people, will have a hundred flavors!

Naturally, the chef cannot be changed frequently, but the dishes can be varied.

For example, the home-cooked loach stewed tofu in Deshunlou, if it is made into loach tofu, will it make the guests feel very novel?

Lin Xueman flipped through the recipes and expressed her opinion.

"Loach drilled into tofu?" Boss Yang is indeed a well-informed businessman. When he heard the name of this dish, he immediately became interested. "Miss Xiao, do you think loach can drill into tofu?"

Shunzi stood aside with a look of novelty!

"Boss, think about it. Heat the loach and tofu together. The tofu is cold. When the loach is heated, it will naturally hide in a cool place. When it gets into the tofu, the dish is almost cooked. Then pour it in the prepared soup, I believe the taste will be different, so that customers will not question whether the loach in the store is fresh, because only live loach can drill into it!" Lin Xueman has eaten this dish before .Although I haven't done it myself, I still know the general method.

"Okay! Just do as you say, let's go, let's try it in the back kitchen!" Boss Yang was full of excitement. He didn't expect that there would be such an intelligent woman in the countryside. She is indeed Mr. Xiao's daughter-in-law!

The back kitchen is very large, and it is very clean. More than a dozen pots and stoves are lined up neatly on a large earthen platform.There are piles of washed vegetables on the chopping board on the other side. Three young men in gray clothes and black aprons are busy washing and chopping vegetables, making loud noises. They seem to be working here It's been a long time, and the movements are very skilled.Busy but not chaotic.

The smell of oily smoke and green onion is wonderfully intertwined in the air, that familiar, long-lost kitchen-specific smell, suddenly wraps Lin Xueman layer by layer.

Lin Xueman couldn't help taking a deep breath. It wasn't that she liked the smell, but that it reminded her of her working in Seafood City.Although it is a part-time job, the memory is happy.Looking at everything in front of her, she felt a little dazed, and felt as if she had returned to the past, the kitchen of that seafood city...

There are only two people in white clothes who are very leisurely. They are fat and thin, and they are sitting at a side table drinking tea. It seems that these two people are master chefs!

The two saw that the boss brought in a woman with a lady's hair with a happy face.I was very disdainful, what amazing dishes a woman can cook.Besides, it is inevitable that the business will be deserted for a while. Can a woman turn the situation around?

What a joke!

Seeing the awkward expressions of the two master chefs, Lin Xueman didn't care, and smiled at them kindly. She is not a chef, nor is she here to compete with them for jobs. Why is she so nervous?

Although the fat master was a little displeased, he also became interested when he heard from his boss that this little lady was going to make loach and tofu.

Lin Xueman washed her hands, rolled up her sleeves, walked to the tofu basket, and picked a square old tofu. If the tofu was very tender, it would be scattered by the loach. It didn't look good, but the tofu shouldn't be too Old, if it is too old, the loach will not be able to get in.

I took the tofu, put it on the cutting board, cut off the hard skin around it with a knife, then put it in the prepared pot, filled it with cold water, and picked a few from the wooden basin that had been spat out. The smaller and slender loach that is very energetic is put into the pot.

"Is that all right?" Fat Master asked suspiciously, "Did you get in like this?"

"Turn on a low heat, you have to heat it up to drill in!" Lin Xueman put the lid on the pot, feeling a little apprehensive, the loaches here won't eat it, right?

The fat master lifted the pot, and the iron rod poked the stove, emitting a burst of choking soot, until a wisp of blue flame jumped up and gently licked the bottom of the pot.

Seeing the steam coming out of the pot, Lin Xueman nervously stepped forward to lift the lid, and the others hurriedly followed suit, hey!Really got in!

A few small loaches really got into the tofu, only a few small tails were exposed, and the tofu was not broken. Everything was as imagined, Lin Xueman was relieved, if it didn't work, it would be so embarrassing!

"It's really loach drilled tofu, interesting and interesting!" Boss Yang clapped his hands and applauded, attracting several other people to come to see it one after another, with surprised expressions on their faces!

The faces of the two chefs also showed joy. Anyway, this is really a novel dish. It is more challenging than stewed tofu with loach, and it is a bit interesting!

"Then make some soup and pour it on it!" Lin Xueman took a shovel on the side, carefully took out the piece of tofu, put it on a plate, and put the loach that hadn't gotten into the pot, and put it on the plate. Take it out and place it next to the tofu.

"I don't know what kind of soup is good?" the fat master asked, looking at her with admiration!

"Master, you can cook according to the general taste of the guests. In fact, the key to this dish is the soup. The master's cooking skills are superb, so he knows more than me." Lin Xueman smiled.

"That's good, that's good!" The fat master heard this, and there was a smile on his face. He reached out to take the pot, thought for a while, and skillfully took chopped green onion and ginger from the seasoning basket on the side, and cooked it smokyly. As soon as it was passed through, the aroma suddenly wafted out of the pot, and then it was skillfully poured on the piece of tofu.

Green onions, red peppers, white tofu, and some small coriander are sprinkled on top, which can be described as full of color, fragrance and taste!

Alright, loach drilled tofu, done!

Boss Yang hurriedly picked up the chopsticks and tasted them.A satisfied smile appeared on his face, and other people came over to try it one after another. The same ingredients, but with different recipes, naturally have a different taste. This dish tastes really good.

Boss Yang immediately said that this dish of loach tofu will be listed on the signature dish immediately, and he will recommend it to customers in the store!

"Miss Xiao, this way please!" He came out from the back kitchen.Boss Yang said to Lin Xueman respectfully, "I also want to hear Miss Xiao's thoughts on other dishes."

Lin Xueman also provided him with recipes for several dishes, which were based on the ingredients in his original recipes. She knew that even she could make several newer dishes.It also has to be based on other people's ingredients and the acceptance of customers, and then if there are effects, and then some new ingredients are introduced, people will accept it wholeheartedly!

She can also make sashimi, so she can't get the sashimi right away, right?Certainly not!People will think she is crazy!Besides, she herself can't accept eating sashimi.Just thinking about it makes me terrified!

"Miss Xiao, you mean. Our steamed conch can also be made into a flame conch?" Boss Yang asked after looking at the several dishes she circled on the paper.

we?When Lin Xueman heard this, she chuckled inwardly!

"Well, I think the taste of the dish is important, but the name of the dish is also very important. At least, the name of the dish must be known to the guests. It is full of curiosity and a desire to try it quickly!" Lin Xueman looked at it seriously. with him.He also said, "Because this conch is a local specialty, the method is simple, and there must be other stores, and the method and price are similar, so if Deshunlou wants to attract people's attention, it must have a famous name. They make steamed conch. , Deshun Tower will be a flame snail!"

"It's a good idea, but at least we can't change the name, right?" Boss Yang asked. The name of the dish can't be changed, but it's the same dish that's served on the table, right?

"That's not true. Since they are called flame conch shells, they must have fire." Seeing his puzzled look, Lin Xueman smiled, "It's actually very simple, just sprinkle some red pepper powder on the steamed conch shells, and then sprinkle When serving some wine to the guests, light it with a torch, won’t it become a flame snail?”

"Oh! Miss Xiao is really smart!" Boss Yang slapped his thigh, suddenly understood, and smiled, "There is a saying, listening to your words is better than studying for ten years. Today I listened to Miss Xiao's words. I have been in the restaurant for so many years, and I understand, what Miss Xiao means is that we not only need to find new dishes, but also improve some familiar dishes to make our own characteristics, right?"

Really well-informed!

"Exactly!" Lin Xueman pointed to the dishes she had thought up in advance, and said, "I wrote down the recipes of these dishes on paper, and just hand them over to the back chef. They are all chefs. You will understand it at a glance, if the boss is interested, he can do it, and I can see that there are others in the store, so there is no need for me to make an ax in this class!"

"Okay, okay." Boss Yang carefully looked at the name of the dish and its method, and kept nodding his head. For example, cuttlefish head, you only need to draw a few staggered diagonal lines on it, and then put it in the pan to fry, and you can make cuttlefish. Then put the green cabbage leaves on the bottom of the plate, pour the cuttlefish flower rolls on the cabbage leaves, and arrange them one by one. It is a plate of "sea pomegranate", which is indeed very special.

Another staple dish is dumplings stuffed with mackerel.

Two soups, seaweed egg drop soup and seafood lean meat porridge.

There are also several chicken recipes, as well as several dishes modified from other signature dishes.

At this time, Shunzi came over and said softly: "Boss, someone from the yamen will come to order food, and follow the old rules to reserve all the private rooms on the second floor!"

"Understood, go to the kitchen and inform Master Fathead, get ready!" Boss Yang beamed with joy.

Shunzi backed off in response!

Lin Xueman also hurriedly got up to say goodbye!

"Miss Xiao, wait a moment!" Boss Yang said, and even took out a bank note from his sleeve and handed it to her, "Miss Xiao is bothering you these days, this is ten taels of silver, please accept it!"

"Boss Yang, you're being polite. These dishes don't sell so well. How can I accept your money?" Lin Xueman was a little embarrassed. Although she needed money, she didn't accept everything!

"Miss Xiao misunderstood. I always like to have a good time when I do things. We have something to say in the open. Miss Xiao can't tell others about these dishes."

"Naturally, but there is no guarantee of money. I won't ask for money if I don't get paid for nothing. If these vegetables sell well, we will get half and half of the profits. I will definitely not refuse the money I earn! Farewell!" After Lin Xueman finished speaking, she hurried out the door.

If no one cares about these dishes, wouldn't it be embarrassing to take other people's money first!

This Boss Yang is really interesting, he buys it with money at every turn, he is really rich and powerful!

Boss Yang saw that she was determined not to accept it, so he had no choice but to put away the cash.

"Miss Xiao, stay here!" After walking a few steps, Lin Xueman heard someone shouting behind her.

It's Sunja!

"Ms. Xiao." Shunzi looked at her with some embarrassment, and said, "Well, the fat-headed master asked me to ask, what if the loach doesn't want to drill, or can't get into the tofu, what should I do? "

"Then use chopsticks to drill a few holes in the tofu!" Lin Xueman smiled slightly and whispered mysteriously.

"Understood, thank you Mrs. Xiao!" Shunzi's eyes lit up immediately! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
