delicious little cook

Chapter 12
Now that the ingredients were in sufficient supply, the apprentices finally stopped arguing over the ingredients, and immediately started peace negotiations, agreeing on the principle that the boys would cook for lunch and the girls for dinner.

In this way, everyone has the opportunity to practice at the stove. As for those who want to practice more, they can only stay alone after the supper time is over.

Everyone was very happy about this, and many people vowed to stay and cook at night.

But only a few days later, fewer and fewer apprentices were willing to stay up late. After a day of heavy physical labor, it was difficult to stay awake after the second watch, and they were so sleepy that they yawned all over the place.

However, in only ten days or so, the kitchen after the second shift became Bai Kou's exclusive kitchen. Lu Doudou, who had recovered from his heart disease, couldn't hold on after a few days, and his body really longed for sleep.

The warehouse said it would provide ingredients, but in fact, ingredients such as fresh meat are not easy to store overnight. They should be used up as early as possible during the day, and the rest of the shelves are vegetables.

Bai Kou didn't want to make greasy dishes at night, she couldn't finish it alone, and she didn't want to show it to everyone tomorrow. After much deliberation, she decided to make a simple and light snack.

First, I took a handful of green leafy vegetables to the well to clean them, cut them on the chopping board, then beat the egg liquid, then lit the fire and sat in the pot to spread the egg skins.

Blanch the vegetables in a boiling water pot and drain the water, spread them on the egg skin, sprinkle with a handful of pine nuts, roll the egg skin tightly, cut into sections, arrange on a plate, and it’s done.

"The making of this egg roll is too simple, there is no difficulty at all." In the quiet kitchen where no one was around, a right hand belonging to a young man suddenly appeared beside the table, and reached out to the plate to pick up an egg roll.

Bai Kou was so frightened that his hairs stood on end. Instead of looking up at the person, he reached out to touch the knife. After cutting the egg roll earlier, the knife was by his hand.

But as soon as her hand touched the handle of the knife, a left hand pressed on the blade.

"Mmmmmmmmmmm, don't touch the knife randomly, it's very dangerous."

The speaker had food in his mouth and was slurring his words, but his right hand took a second egg roll from the plate.

Bai Kou looked up angrily and stared at him.

"You make a little noise when you walk, okay?"

The little brother who was already familiar with himself smiled shamelessly, and took the whole plate away.

"I'm training you to be vigilant at all times."

"You always scare me so much, sooner or later I will slash you with a knife."

The little brother didn't take Bai Kou's words seriously at all, he put the third egg roll into his mouth, and snarled at the ingredients shelf.

"Make something else to eat, I didn't eat at night, I'm starving to death."

"Aren't you the boy in front of the old man?! Can you still be hungry?"

"I left the house early in the morning and just came back."

Bai Kou let out a "tsk", thinking that she was just a servant and didn't bother with him.

"The shelves are full of vegetables, and the meat is all used up during the day. What do you want to eat? Scallion pancakes? Noodles?"

"They all have to be kneaded?"

"Yes." Bai Kou felt that the other party's tone was weird, she quickly checked the cupboard and found a bowl of leftovers, "There is still some leftovers, how about fried rice with eggs?"

The little brother's eyes lit up, but seeing the size of the bowl, he immediately shook his head again.

"No need, this leftover may be useful for others to keep. After eating it, you will quarrel again tomorrow. You should make noodles."

"Ok."

Bai Kou put the leftovers back, and looked for some vegetables for topping from the shelf. There are quite a few ingredients for this one, including dried mushrooms and dried shrimps in sauce.

"I don't have meat, so let's make some eggs. Do you want fried eggs? How many do you want? Do you like to fry on both sides or one side? Or beat egg liquid and pour it into the noodle soup to make egg drop?"

The little brother put down the plate after eating the egg rolls, glanced at the basket containing the eggs, and compared the numbers, "Six, fried on both sides."

"Six!?" Bai Kou stared, "You're not the only one eating it?!"

The little brother smiled, and slapped three times at the kitchen door. Immediately, two men in common clothes walked in. They were about twenty years old, and their physique looked like they had practiced martial arts for many years. There was a waist card hanging on the leather belt, which must be bodyguard.

The young man in front of the old man had to bring his guards with him when he went out to do errands, so no one should be curious about what they were doing, but it was no wonder that he looked down on that bowl of leftovers just now, obviously because he thought it was too little and not enough to eat.

Bai Kou resolutely shut up, turned around and prepared again, the three martial arts practitioners had at least double the amount of food.

The three of them wisely did not stand at the door, and it happened that the burning stove was not facing the door, so they moved there, boiled water for themselves, and quietly waited for the late dinner.

Bai Kou kneaded the dough, put it on the chopping board to eat, then took the dustpan containing vegetables and fruits to the well to clean it up, and took it back and cut it into small cubes for later use.

At this time, the dough is almost finished. Use a rolling pin to flatten it again and again to make fresh-cut noodles. Then regenerate a stove and use it at the same time. One is used for topping noodles, and the other is used for frying eggs.

The little brother sat motionless, but the two guards were walking back and forth in the kitchen. In the utensil room, there were high-quality tableware for the masters. It was locked after supper, so the three of them could only use the cupboard. A cheap big bowl was used as the noodle bowl, and he helped Bai Kou fetch well water for cooking the noodles.

Six fried eggs were poured into the plate one after another, and Bai Kou added water to cook the noodles directly in the oily pot, while the toppings for the noodles were simmering in the pot, waiting for more flavor.

Three large bowls were lined up on the long table. Bai Kou put the noodles into the bowls, poured sesame oil and stirred them evenly to prevent them from sticking together, then poured out the toppings, let the three of them help themselves, and turned around , The noodle soup for cooking the noodles was not poured out, but continued to put chopped vegetable leaves, diced mushrooms and dried shrimps in it, boiled into a clear soup, one bowl per person, the original soup turned into the original food.

While they were eating, Bai Kou hurriedly cleaned up the kitchen, and took the used pots, chopping boards and knives to the well to clean them, so as not to be stuck in the house like a wooden man.

After washing the kitchen tools and cleaning the ground around the well, Bai Kou returned to the kitchen. The three of them had almost finished eating, the noodle bowls were empty, and they were all drinking soup. Turning around, there were only empty plates and bowls left on the table.

"Satisfied?" Bai Kou cleaned up the dishes with a smile, took them out with a dustpan and washed them for a while.

The three touched their full stomachs and smiled happily.

Now Bai Kou has more confidence in her cooking skills. She thinks that the servants and guards in front of the old man must have seen many scenes and eaten a lot of good things on the street. If they are satisfied, it means that their cooking skills are really good In line with the taste and aesthetics of this world.

Bai Kou happily went out to wash the dishes, and the three younger brothers were not in a hurry to leave. They just sat down and rested, they were too lazy to move when they were full.

In less than a moment, Bai Kou came back with the clean dishes, wiped off the water and put them back in the cupboard, and finally cleaned up the table. The three of them had rested, so they extinguished the candles, and the four of them went out together. Walk.

Bai Kou stepped out of the corner door first, and was stunned to see Mengmei's proud expression of waiting for a rabbit, and she didn't know how long she had been squatting here.

"Hey, there are so many lovers? Where are you going when you're full? Bai Kou, I know you're dishonest!"
