The Brave Life of a Space Peasant Girl

Chapter 35 Improved Vegetables

So Yu Wan told them twice how to make chili sauce and what dishes were suitable for adding chili pepper, making sure that they had memorized them all, and then asked each of them to cook a specialty dish.

 By noon, basically everyone had prepared the food and served it.

Uncle Xiao made a dish of braised snow fish, and Yu Wan tasted it. The meat was tender, juicy, slightly spicy, and had a perfect color, flavor, and flavor. After one bite, she couldn't put down her chopsticks.

After Xiao Bo tasted it himself, he was shocked by his cooking skills.

 The second dish is from Li Tianming and Uncle Li. He made a stir-fried pork intestine. This low-cost and disgusting large intestine made Uncle Li reach the highest level of cooking. According to Yu Wan's instructions, he added wine and chili peppers to the large intestine, as well as peppercorns picked from her space. The taste was simply the most delicious dish he had ever tasted in his life. Fragrant, spicy, crispy, and numb, without any of the original smell of large intestine.

The third dish is from Aunt Qiu, a foie gras with fine cutting skills, fresh and tender taste, slightly numb and spicy, making it a dish with a different flavor.

Yu Wan looked at Aunt Qiu. It is not easy to make this dish. The foie gras needs to be cooked over high heat. It should be more aged and less cooked. Aunt Qiu really gave her an unexpected surprise.

 The fourth course is a pot of chicken soup. The cook is a tall and lanky man with a high school diploma. It is estimated that his family's hope is that he will be the top scorer in high school, but they don't want to become a sold-out cook.

This chicken soup is also made from wild mushrooms to boil oil as Yu Wan said, and the oil is added with water and seasonings to cook the chicken. How come the chicken soup is so fresh?

The fifth dish is Yu Wan’s favorite shredded pork with green pepper, which is changed into shredded pork with green bamboo shoots. The taste is different with the addition of chili pepper.

 The sixth dish is stewed hare.

The seventh dish is, of course, the fried spicy pheasant.

The eighth course is a stew of chicken stewed with mushrooms. I believe everyone will not like this stew.

The ninth dish, braised pork platter, is a good dish to go with wine.

Yu Wan believes that these nine improved dishes will definitely make guests eat their tongues. What's more, the nine of them can't cook only one dish. I believe that with their own intelligence, they can make more delicious dishes.

“Okay, everyone’s cooking is very good today, what do you think?”

“Miss, the taste of this improved dish is indeed extraordinary,” Xiao Bo said.

 “Indeed, I didn’t know that dishes could be so seasoned.”

 “This pepper, Zanthoxylum bungeanum is really a treasure.”

“Yes, there is also that wine, it turns out that it can remove the smell.”

 …

Everyone started talking in a flurry, as if a door was opened for them all at once.

Yu Wan listened to their discussion and felt happy. She really felt like she had found a treasure. She believed that these nine people would definitely bring her unexpected surprises in the future.

 In this backward world, it is rare that they are not stubborn and self-proclaimed.

At noon, I ate just these nine dishes. Each dish was delicious. Yu Wan had a delicious meal.

After lunch, Yu Wan handed them how to make the chili sauce, leaving a bag of chili in the kitchen and asking them to make the chili sauce first, just in time for the restaurant to open.

Aunt Qiu and Xiao Bo followed Yu Wan back to their yard. She pointed to the stools in the living room for them to sit down.

She said: "Uncle Xiao, I called you two here because I have something for you to do. I plan to open the restaurant in ten days. Firstly, during this period you can practice more, and you can also think about other food that can be eaten in the restaurant. Second: Mr. Xiao, the manager of this restaurant, will take charge of it first. Third, Aunt Qiu, the chef of the restaurant, will take care of it. If there is anything else that I haven't thought of well, you can tell me at any time. As for the waiters in the restaurant, there is still time before the restaurant opens, so we can just go to the store to buy them. We are in the catering business, so I don’t trust the waiters hired from outside. "

Yu Wan believes that if the restaurant business is booming in the future, there will definitely be people suffering from pinkeye and trying their best to cause trouble. The employees in the restaurant are the best targets.

 Although those who buy it back are not necessarily loyal and will not betray their master. But to a certain extent, they are much more loyal to their master than those recruited from outside.

Uncle Xiao and Aunt Qiu were very happy and fully accepted her arrangement. Winning the attention and favor of their master was what they dreamed of as servants.

Xiao Bo was a little uneasy at first. He didn't know what Yu Wan was doing alone with the two of them. He thought there was something he couldn't do well. Hearing what Yu Wan said, Xiao Bo was pleasantly surprised. The lady entrusted him with the management of the restaurant, which was beyond his expectation. He would be lying if he said he was not impressed. He stood up and bowed respectfully to Yu Wan: "Don't worry, miss, I will not let you down."

At his age, he can't even say flattering words, so he can only speak with practical actions.

Yu Wan nodded, very satisfied with Xiao Bo's reaction. Well done is better said than done.

Aunt Qiu was even more delighted. She did not expect that Yu Wan would entrust her with the important task of managing the kitchen. This was the master's trust in her. It almost made her burst into tears, and she secretly took care of the kitchen and her own affairs for her master from now on. Don’t ever be sold to or beaten again.

"Miss, don't worry, I will do a good job."

Yu Wan nodded: "As long as you do a good job, I will not treat you badly."

She had an idea. Everyone here has been a cook. Does anyone know how to make wine? There are too many fruits in her space, and she really doesn’t know how to deal with them.

“Uncle Xiao, Aunt Qiu, do you know how to make wine?”

Bo Xiao shook his head first: "Miss, this old slave doesn't know how."

Aunt Qiu bit her lip and said in embarrassment: "What kind of wine does the lady want to make? I can order fruit wine." Her ancestor was an imperial chef, and not only was he good at cooking delicious food, but he was also good at making fruit wine. At that time, her ancestor once enjoyed great fame in the palace, relying on this fruit wine. Who in the emperor's harem doesn't like to have a few sips of wine, but ordinary wine is too strong and tastes bad. If you drink a small drink to enjoy yourself, a large drink will hurt your health.

Later on, her ancestor passed the meal to her master for the last time. It happened that the master liked to drink a few sips and hated the taste of the white wine. At this time, the ancestors offered the fruit wine they brewed. From then on, fruit wine became popular in the palace.

Yu Wan's eyes lit up: "Really, oh, Aunt Qiu, this is great."

She actually bought a bunch of God of Wealth gifts back.

 This is her luck.

So Yu Wan sent Xiao Bo back to the kitchen, and she went into the room and took out a bag of fruit from the space and gave it to Aunt Qiu.

Aunt Qiu took the cloth bag from Yu Wan's hand. She didn't ask Yu Wan where the fruit came from, just like the peppers and Sichuan peppercorns. This is the most basic thing about being a servant. You will know what you should know, and just keep your mouth shut about what you shouldn't know.

“Aunt Qiu, just put the jar of wine you have brewed in the cellar. If you need anything, ask Uncle Xiao.”
