The best farmhouse

Chapter 20 Taste
Both Zhao Canniang and Zhao Qingfeng waited anxiously.

The chefs and the work in the kitchen already had free time at this time, and most of them looked at Zhao Canniang and his sister curiously, pointing from time to time.

Regarding these pointers, Zhao Qingfeng became a little timid and panicked, and said to Zhao Canniang in a low voice, "My sister, why is shopkeeper Zhang not here yet? Could it be that he forgot?"

Zhao Canniang shook her head and said to Zhao Qingfeng, "The shopkeeper Zhang seems to be a serious person. Maybe the front office is too busy. Let's wait patiently. As for other people's advice, don't pay too much attention to it."

It was too late when Shopkeeper Zhang finished his work, Zhao Canniang and Zhao Qingfeng stood up quickly when they saw Shopkeeper Zhang approaching.

Before approaching shopkeeper Zhang, he said to Zhao Canniang with a smile on his face, "Have you eaten yet?"

Zhao Canniang and Zhao Qingfeng nodded gratefully to shopkeeper Zhang, "Thank you shopkeeper Zhang for eating."

Shopkeeper Zhang smiled slightly, "Can we start now? When I was busy in the front hall, I kept thinking about the new gadgets in your back basket. It just so happened that the young owner of our restaurant is here today. His favorite thing is new gadgets."

Zhao Canniang didn't think much about it. The young owner of Tianxiang Building, such an identity is a bit out of reach for Zhao Canniang. What she cares about now is how to sell her konjac, which is the key.

"The shopkeeper can start, can I borrow your kitchen?" Zhao Canniang asked in a gentle voice.

Shopkeeper Zhang glanced at the kitchen and nodded: "Of course it can be used. Do you need someone to avoid you when the girl is cooking?"

Some crafts are not to be passed on to the outside world, and the shopkeeper Zhang gave Zhao Canniang the most basic respect.

Zhao Canniang shook her head, "There's no need to avoid it, anyway, if you are satisfied, I will teach you how to do it then, but I hope there are not too many people, as long as the chef of the restaurant is nearby."

After Zhao Canniang finished speaking, shopkeeper Zhang said to a slightly plump man in his thirties who was wearing a blue coat not far away, "Master Wang will bring all three of your apprentices over here. If you have nothing to do, go down and rest."

It's good to have this in the restaurant. It's busy there and only busy with three meals, so I have time to rest in the afternoon.

Zhao Canniang looked in the direction Zhang Zhang was looking at, and saw Master Wang walking over with three young men in grades.

The four of them looked at shopkeeper Zhang with more respectful eyes.

Master Wang approached Shopkeeper Zhang and said with a smile, "Shopkeeper Zhang, did you call us here for something?" After speaking, Master Wang looked at Zhao Canniang a few more times.

Shopkeeper Zhang nodded, pointed at Zhao Canniang, and said, "My niece wants to use the kitchen to make some new dishes, you can take a look at it, and if there is anything wrong, please give me some pointers."

When Master Wang heard this, he looked at Zhao Canniang curiously. Seeing Zhao Canniang's appearance, her family must not be rich, but he heard from Uncle Wu that this little girl is a distant relative of shopkeeper Zhang. Take care that he is by the side, perhaps because he wants to watch by the side so that nothing goes wrong.

"I don't dare to give pointers. Since it is a new dish, I am lucky to be able to take a look at it. How can I talk about whether it is worth it." As a chef, if you don't have a little way of dealing with people, it's obviously not enough.

Zhao Canniang had a good impression of Master Wang, and she stopped talking. Zhao Canniang directly took the wooden basin out of the basket, and then walked into the kitchen.

Followed by only worried Zhao Qingfeng, shopkeeper Zhang, Master Wang and his three apprentices.

There was no one else in the kitchen, so Zhao Canniang placed the wooden basin next to the chopping board, and then lifted the white cloth.

Shopkeeper Zhang was not surprised to see konjac just now, but Master Wang and his three apprentices all looked curious. Looking at the konjac in the wooden basin, Master Wang couldn't help asking curiously, "I don't know if this wood What's in the basin? Why haven't I seen it before?"

A chef who knows how to make progress has a desire for all new things, and Master Wang is such a person.

After speaking, he looked at Zhao Canniang with burning eyes, hoping that Zhao Canniang could give some advice.

Zhao Canniang picked up the knife next to the chopping board and cut off a small piece. Konjac is very absorbent, but it can't lock the water very well. There is already a lot of water in the wooden basin. Zhao Canniang said while cutting, "This is called konjac. It is from the mountains. A kind of rhizome plant is made through repeated techniques, konjac can be eaten in many ways, I will simply make two dishes for you now, you can try it.”

After hearing this, Master Wang seemed to understand that there are tens of thousands of edible ingredients in the world, and it is normal for him not to have seen them.

Shopkeeper Zhang has been looking forward to it for a long time. In fact, shopkeeper Zhang didn't say anything. He has already told the matter to Ke Tianlin, the young master. Now Ke Tianlin is still waiting on it. Now shopkeeper Zhang can only pray that Zhao Canniang can make delicious food.

Zhao Canniang cut the konjac into thin strips, and after familiarizing herself with the utensils in the kitchen, she put the pot on the stove.

"Master Wang, where is the sauerkraut?" Zhao Canniang's first dish was roasted konjac with sauerkraut.

The ingredients in the restaurant are all complete. As soon as Zhao Canniang finished speaking, one of Master Wang's apprentices turned around and placed a large basin on a shelf, which contained chopped sauerkraut.

Zhao Canniang smiled gratefully at the young man holding the wooden basin, and then began to pour oil into the pot.

Half of clear oil and half of lard, konjac is a relatively oily thing, and it tastes better when burned with more oil, but the amount of oil must be controlled well. If you don't control it well, there will be too much oil at the bottom of the bowl. It's not pretty either.

Ginger, garlic, chili, and Chinese prickly ash are all ready. When the oil temperature rises, Zhao Canniang puts the ginger, garlic, and other ingredients in the pot, and then stir-fries until fragrant, then pours the sauerkraut, followed by the konjac.

Add a small amount of broth, which is used in Tianxianglou to enhance freshness, and there is no such advanced stuff as MSG and chicken essence in the ancient Zhou Dynasty.

Then Zhao Canniang put the salt in proportion, lightly fried it a few times and then covered the pot.

Zhao Qingfeng never knew that Zhao Canniang's hands and feet were so nimble. It was impossible not to be surprised. You must know that Zhao Canniang seldom cooks at home. Thousands of times in general.

Zhao Canniang's method is not particularly difficult, she can do it at first glance, but Master Wang and shopkeeper Zhang are surprised. It is not difficult to know how to use ginger and garlic, but it is a bit surprising that Zhao Canniang knows how to use broth to enhance the flavor. up.

One must know that judging from Zhao Canniang's clothes, the family does not seem to be someone who knows about these things.

Surprise is nothing but surprise. At this time, everyone understands that it is time to study hard.

Although I haven't tasted the taste of konjac yet, just by watching Zhao Canniang's actions, I know that the food in the pot must taste the same.

The second dish that Zhao Canniang will cook is barbecue konjac.

Tianxiang Restaurant has racks for roasting ducks, and the charcoal is still burning because it is not long before noon.

Zhao Canniang put the sliced ​​konjac on the grill, and then brushed oil on the bottom.

"Is there cumin powder in Master Wang's kitchen?" The barbecue konjac tastes even better if it has cumin powder.

Master Wang thought for a while and then nodded, "It seems that there are some, but the taste of that thing is quite unique, and many people can't accept it, so we rarely use it on weekdays. Xiao Wu, go and find some for the girl."

It was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy who was replaced by Master Wang as Xiao Wu, who immediately ran down after receiving the order.

While Zhao Canniang was taking care of the konjac burning in the pot, she was turning the konjac on the grill.

Because it was just a trial, Zhao Canniang only baked two konjac cubes the size of a palm.

As soon as the konjac is brushed with oil, you can smell the aroma, followed by salt and chili powder, and then the cumin powder brought by Xiao Wu. Because it is made by myself, Zhao Canniang takes a little longer to bake it, about All the salty taste had entered the konjac, so I took two plates off the shelf beside it.

Put the konjac on a plate, sprinkle with chives and it's ready.

The konjac in the pot can also be eaten after this period of stewing.

Zhao Canniang took the pot away, then picked up the plate and scooped up the konjac in the pot, just enough to fill the plate.

Shopkeeper Zhang was full of amazement, he was really impressed by Zhao Canniang's actions, this Zhao Canniang has some skills.

After this process, every step was planned, and Zhao Canniang didn't panic or repeat steps at all.

In a word, every step of Zhao Canniang's steps is just right.

There was a smell in the kitchen that I had never smelled before.

"Shopkeeper Zhang and the masters invite you to try it. I'm not good at craftsmanship, so don't mind if it doesn't taste good. I want to say that there is nothing wrong with this konjac. Our family eats it when it is green and yellow."

After Zhao Canniang finished speaking, fearing that everyone would worry, she took a sharp knife and cut the konjac baked in a plate into small pieces, and then ate a piece without hesitation with chopsticks.

The entrance is the fragrance of chopped green onion, and then the fragrance of konjac fills the whole mouth.

Although Zhao Canniang's actions were a bit abrupt, shopkeeper Zhang and Master Wang both knew that this was to relieve their worries.

Now that Zhao Canniang has already eaten, there are still mothers-in-law and mothers in their place.

Shopkeeper Zhang stretched out his chopsticks first, took a piece of konjac that had been roasted and fed it into his mouth.

Chewing lightly, the light sour taste of sauerkraut has been burned in the konjac, and the salt and umami taste are also delicious, and the tenderness and slightly chewy feeling of konjac is very comfortable.

The more shopkeeper Zhang ate, the more surprised he felt, and then he couldn't help but put his chopsticks into the grilled konjac.
