Food Customizer

Obviously, these old masters are really addicted to helping in the kitchen.

The little thoughts of several people can be said to be written on their faces.

Jiang Wusheng was originally a very serious old man, but now he followed Su Chen's ass, "How about Boss Su, what else should we do this afternoon?"

As long as I help you work, you have to provide me with food!

Isn't it too much to eat a few buns and a few bowls of stir-fried noodles?

Su Chen walked towards the 19th floor, and his expression became more and more helpless.

This afternoon's work is to reprocess some ingredients. It stands to reason that they should do it by themselves. It's not impossible for these old masters to participate.

But the number of ingredients prepared is not particularly large. If they make it different from what they want, it will be troublesome. It's hard to say, and it's troublesome to do it again, but seeing that the old men are like old naughty boys, Su Chen can't bear to refuse.

"Let's go to the kitchen first, and we'll talk if we need your help!"

As for dinner.

Oh!

Looking at this situation, I can't avoid making noodles and buns myself!

The first thing Su Chen did after returning to the kitchen was to prepare the clear soup and milk soup.

This soup needs to be cooked for ten hours. If we start now, it will probably be done late at night.

According to the steps learned in the practice room before, Su Chen first began to scrape and clean the elbow, cut two cuts along the elbow bone, and then break it with the back of the knife after the elbow bone is exposed.

"It's time to make soup. If this soup can be cooked well, this meal will be worth it!" Lu Yongliang looked at Su Chen's steps and naturally knew what he was going to do.

"That's right. There are very few Shandong cuisine restaurants willing to do this now. I remember that Shandong cuisine restaurants in the past would close after the soup was sold out, and they would never make dishes without soup!" Jiang Wusheng also admired Su Chen's rigorous character.

"Abao can help with this!"

The apprentice is a Shandong cuisine by-product. Lu Yongliang believes that his attainments in Shandong cuisine may not be as good as Abao's. Every profession has its own expertise, and this must be acknowledged.

Liu Abao did not refuse, "Boss Su, then I will get you the red whistle and white whistle first."

"Okay."

The three old men Lu Yongliang hurried to help with some work if they could help, and most of the rest of the time they stood by and watched.

But just by watching, they were completely impressed by the extraordinary skills displayed by Su Chen!

After Su Chen put the lid with holes on the big bucket, Lu Yongliang stood there, "I can already imagine how delicious this soup will be in ten hours!"

"Tsk! Boss Su. Today you let me know what it means to be one minute on stage and ten years of hard work off stage." Jiang Wusheng watched Su Chen make the clear soup and milk soup from beginning to end, full of admiration in his heart.

The diners thought that the exquisite food they ate was because the chefs had good skills and controlled the heat well, but they didn't know that there was such meticulous preparation in advance.

Take Su Chen's method of making clear soup as an example.

The use of water alone is a superb realm. First, the blood in all the ingredients is boiled out with water.

The ingredients that are cooked to half done are taken out and washed with water. The water used for washing is not discarded, but poured back into the pot and boiled again.

Under low heat, stir and cook with a hand spoon. After a while, some floating foam and floating oil are boiled out of the water.

This step alone made Jiang Wusheng admire him.

This is no longer a matter of technique. This is something that can only be thought of by someone who has an extreme understanding of the matter of hanging high soup. Who can boil blood foam and oil water from water?

It's really awesome!

While the clear milk soup was slowly cooking on a low fire, Su Chen checked the large intestine washed by A Bao again. After confirming that the remaining intestinal oil was consistent with the proportion he needed, he used alum to spread on the large intestine to clean it again.

The two ends of the large intestine that had been removed of the dirty air were tied with hemp rope, placed in clean water without any seasoning and started to slowly cook on a low fire.

This step takes at least four hours to cook the large intestine.

It is such a secondary processing of ingredients, and Su Chen is leading a kitchen alone.

Some of the ingredients that have been improved in the practice room are processed by himself, and the others that have not changed are handed over to the three state banquet masters and Liu A Bao to handle.

The complicated work lasted until more than ten o'clock in the evening, and finally all the ingredients needed for the next day were almost prepared.

"Okay, the remaining ingredients are all fried and cooked, and they can be processed when cooking tomorrow."

Jiang Wusheng stretched, "I haven't done this kind of work for many years, not to mention it's quite tiring!"

"That's right." Lu Yongliang looked not tired at all, but rather radiant, "Come on, come on, Xiao Su will cook for us!"

Jiang Wusheng: "Yes, yes, I've been busy all day, and it's already this late. If I don't eat two bowls of noodles, I really can't stand it!"

Jiang Wensheng: "I think so too. If I can have four more buns, I think I can sleep well at night."

Su Chen:? . ?

Who are you hinting at?

Su Chen had already prepared for dinner. At this time, all the employees of Delicious Lai had gone home after get off work, leaving only the five of them, which was not bad.

Not long after, the sound of crazy inhalation was heard on the second floor of Delicious Lai.

As the big mouthfuls of meat buns and big mouthfuls of noodles went into their stomachs, the fatigue on these people's bodies felt as if they were gone.

Jiang Wusheng, who usually rarely eats dinner, had three large bowls of noodles and five large steamed buns for the first time this night!

If his brother hadn't stopped him, he probably could have stuffed another bun into his mouth.

After the three old men finished eating, they left the restaurant together.

Su Chen kindly offered to take a taxi for them, but the three of them refused, saying they would take a walk to eat.

‘How can anyone take a walk for more than ten kilometers?’

Su Chen didn't care about this. He asked Liu Abao to rest and then returned to the 19th floor.

In addition to the ingredients that have been processed, there are still some that need to be checked from time to time for heat and color. It was not until about one o'clock in the night that Su Chen finished everything in the kitchen.

The prepared ingredients are also arranged according to each dish.

One night passed quietly.

As the calendar on the phone automatically flipped to August 15th, it was early in the morning when the delicious food arrived. Before the sun shone through the glass, all employees arrived at the company three hours early.

Also arriving at the same time was Fang Changge and his family.

Su Chen is in charge of the interior, and Ling Shuyu is in charge of the exterior.

While the kitchen is busy, another large table is being installed in the restaurant on the 19th floor. Two large tables can seat 20 people.

As for the private room that had never been moved, Brother Fang Chang brought another screen to expand the area. After adding a few chairs, it was enough to accommodate the number of people at his engagement party.

Everything was going on in an orderly manner, just to welcome the guest from the capital.

Cui Yufen! ! !

"Afu, how's it going?"

The elderly have short sleep time. It was just early in the morning, and Cui Yufen took the earliest high-speed train from Beijing to Jingzhou.

Liu Fu was stunned for a moment, "What about it?"

"I don't know about your little tricks? How's the investigation going?" Cui Yufen couldn't stop himself.

After arriving in Jingzhou, she began to feel prickly in her heart. If it weren't for going there too early and it seemed so shameful to her, she would have loved to go to the delicious food right now!

However, Liu Fu came a day early, and Cui Yufen knew that this boy must have gone to inquire about the situation. She did not refuse, which could be regarded as acquiescing to this behavior.

"Master, I really can't hide anything from you." Liu Fu smiled awkwardly, "I took a look, but I didn't see anything, but I met an acquaintance!"

"who is it?"

Liu Fu said, "I met Lu Yongliang! When I looked at him, he was having dinner with that boss Xiao Su. I guess Lu Yongliang must be here to help. He doesn't want you to be better than him."

Lu Yongliang?

Cui Yufen sneered, recalling that the old guy kept sending him WeChat messages that day in the capital.

If he hadn't kept teasing himself, the matter might have just turned around that day.

Looking back now, this old boy probably didn't do it on purpose, right?

"Lu Yongliang knows Boss Xiao Su?"

Liu Fu's eyebrows were squeezed together, "I'm not sure, but looking at them sitting together and eating together, they should know each other."

Could it be

Cui Yufen suddenly thought of a possibility.

The selection of seed players in the Chinese Division is about to begin. At this time, Lu Yongliang found a way to trick himself into Jingzhou, and he himself also appeared in Jingzhou. There must be something going on here!

The more she thought about it, the more Cui Yu felt something was wrong. She couldn't figure out what was going on, and the more she felt uneasy.

Seeing the worry on his master's face, Liu Fu said, "There are twenty of us brothers, plus you, master. Even if there are ten more Lu Yongliangs, we won't be afraid. He doesn't understand Shandong cuisine! Besides, isn't Lu Yongliang yours too?" Are you defeated?"

Cui Yufen shook his head.

It's not to mention that her subordinates are defeated. Her title and reputation as the Iron Man of Chinese Cuisine are actually a bit out of date compared to Lu Yongliang, and her gold content is not as high as that of her opponent. She knows this in her heart.

But now it's not about who is stronger, but Cui Yufen feels that he has been calculated!

"No." Cui Yufen patted the handle of the chair, "Liu Fu, call all the brothers over, and we'll set off there right away. Oh, yes, let's tell them in advance that we'll be there in half an hour arrive."

"Master, this!"

Liu Fu didn't agree with this approach. Wouldn't it look guilty if he arrived early?

"That's it." Cui Yufen said in a very firm tone, "I've already said hello in advance. It's okay to start my birthday party a few hours early, right?"

She couldn't wait to get there quickly, and wanted to see what the old man named Lu wanted to do!

After all the brothers and sisters came to the same room, Cui Yufen also began to talk about the purpose of his trip.

"First of all, we are not here to cause trouble. We have only one purpose, to let others know that Shandong cuisine is not something anyone can kick!"

Ever since Su Chen went to Cuihua Building, the business of Cuihua Building has been deteriorating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Maybe a layman can't tell it, only that Cuihua Building is still bustling with people coming and going every day, but Cui Yufen can see that many locals who used to come often now basically don't come anymore.

"Today's meal cannot be a casual one, it must be a martial one! You juniors all have your own specialties. If twenty people try one person's dish, is there no problem?"

"No problem!" Twenty brothers said in unison.

Cui Yu stood up from his chair, his eyes like a falcon, "Let's go!"

Delicious food comes to the company.

Su Chen is carefully preparing a big dish: stuffed birthday duck.

Watching Su Chen debone the hanging duck from the neck, Jiang Wusheng and others applauded.

"This knife skill is not inferior to you and me!"

"It takes ten or eight years to practice to debone the duck from the neck. Boss Su has been killing ducks for a long time!"

Lu Yongliang explained to Jiang Wusheng with his chin up, "Boss Su used to work at RT-Mart. This skill is just a trifle."

I remember that when he first demonstrated with Su Chen, Boss Su said that the reason why he killed fish so well was because he worked at RT-Mart for several years.

I guess he learned the debone technique of duck at that time!

'If I take in apprentices in the future, I will send them to RT-Mart to work for a few years. This place can really train real skills! ’

Lu Yongliang thought secretly.

But Liu Abao on the side was a little curious, "Boss, this should be called Eight Treasure Duck, right? Logically speaking, this Eight Treasure Duck can't be considered Shandong cuisine, right?"

Eight Treasure Duck is also a very famous dish. It is a dish made by cutting open the back of a bone-in duck and stuffing it with ingredients.

It is a very famous Shanghai dish, and it can also be considered a Su cuisine, but it can't be considered Shandong cuisine!

"That's not it." Su Chen removed the bones of the duck. Except for the cut on the neck, the rest of the duck was intact.

No wonder Jiang Wusheng and others were amazed. This knife skill cannot be practiced without killing thousands of ducks.

"Eight Treasure Duck is steamed, so ours is not called Eight Treasure Duck, but Stuffed Longevity Duck."

"The founder of this dish is Mr. Liang Jixiang, a master of Shandong cuisine. It is probably lost now, right? But I remember that Mr. Liang Jixiang had a disciple named Yan Jingxiang. I don't know if he has the recipe for this dish."

Yan Jingxiang is a serious master of Shandong cuisine. Cui Yufen's tricks are just childish in front of Mr. Yan.

Of course, Su Chen would not say this. He also learned the name of the founder of this dish from a famous recipe book, but Mr. Liang Jixiang lived too long ago, and his disciple Yan Jingxiang is now over 80 years old.

Except for those old Shandong cuisine antiques, outsiders really don't know about this.

Su Chen specially checked on the Internet. A few years ago, Yan Jingxiang held a press conference in Shandong Province and compiled and published more than 800 dishes passed down to him by Mr. Liang, but this Stuffed Longevity Duck was not among them.

Su Chen guessed that this dish was indeed a bit similar to Su Hu's Eight Treasure Duck, so Mr. Liang did not pass it down, because Eight Treasure Duck was popular all over the country in the 1930s. People like Mr. Liang came up with a birthday duck. Although it was an innovative dish, it was inevitable that people would say it was plagiarism.

Who doesn't want to maintain their integrity in their old age?

And the reason why Su Chen chose this dish was also very simple.

This dish is definitely a classic Shandong dish. It is definitely a huge loss for Shandong cuisine if it cannot be passed down!

It uses the common cooking and the best roasting of Shandong cuisine, with clear soup as the base, paired with local specialties in Jiaodong area, and finally poured with special sauce. Whether it is cooking techniques or ingredients, or taste and flavor, it is definitely a standard Shandong dish!

It has nothing to do with Eight Treasure Duck.

And the name of this dish is nice enough, Birthday Duck! Isn't it used to celebrate birthdays?

It can be regarded as filling the lack of big dishes in this banquet.

After the two ducks were processed, Su Chen began to cut the ham into small cubes of 6 cm square, and cut the mushrooms and fish bones into small cubes of the same size.

Cut the Chinese mustard stems into 6 cm long segments and then split them in half, and pick the scallops clean.

Just as they were about to put them into the pot to start cooking, Xiaobai rushed into the kitchen and said anxiously, "Boss, just got news that they are coming early! It is estimated that they will arrive in half an hour!"

"Cui Yufen and them?" Su Chen asked.

Bai Xiaobo nodded vigorously, "Yes, it's so sudden!"

"Cui Yufen is a woman who doesn't follow martial ethics. She agreed to eat at 12 o'clock, but she arrived at 10 o'clock? Isn't this deliberately looking for trouble?" Lu Yongliang immediately stood up for Su Chen.

Jiang Wusheng shook his head slightly, "I don't think so. They came at 10 o'clock, but they didn't say that the meal would be served at 10 o'clock. If Boss Su loses his composure, it will be a joke."

Su Chen smiled, "Uncle Jiang is right. We can't lose our composure."

Jiang Wensheng nodded, "We are not in a hurry for the engagement banquet. If we had known that such a big thing would happen today, the engagement could have been postponed for a few days. Let's deal with Master Cui's affairs first. There is no rush to make Huaiyang cuisine after we are done."

Fang Changge glanced at his father-in-law from behind.

Thinking to himself, you didn't say that when I told you that day!

Who was jumping up and down like a child that day, saying that there was a good show to watch this time, and he couldn't wait to take a bus back to Jingzhou overnight?

Why are you pretending to be so nice to Boss Su?

Su Chen smiled, "Thank you, Uncle Jiang. I'm really sorry for being so inconsiderate today. I'll cook and apologize to you two after I finish this."

The Jiang Wusheng brothers looked at each other, seemingly calm, but actually communicating with each other.

I'm waiting for you to say this!

Since that's the case, Su Chen won't be polite.

Quickly put the ingredients just prepared into the pot, and then added a pound of water. Just as the fire was boiling, all the ingredients were scooped into the bowl.

Put ham and scallops in a bowl, add five cents of soy sauce, one ounce of scallion, pepper and Shaoxing wine, and a little scallion oil, and mix well, then stuff all the ingredients into the duck's stomach from the neck.

After the two ducks were done, they were tied up with a thin hemp rope and put into the boiling water pot.

"That's it?" A Bao thought it was too simple, right?

"What are you thinking about."

Su Chen closed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath.

It should be said that Cui Yufen's sudden arrival ahead of time was a surprise.

The mind settled.

Su Chen appeared in the food practice room.

This paragraph was written very slowly, very slowly. The second chapter has not started yet, and the update must be very late. You don't have to wait, it will be the same tomorrow, sorry.
