From a barbecue stand to a global gourmet tycoon

Chapter 185 Going to the Rich Woman's Home ([-])

And the series of foodie training can be considered complete.

The gathering of knowledge points formed a net in Chu Hao's mind. The four knowledge points of seasoning, taste, ingredients, and collocation made Chu Hao a gourmet. In terms of system, the coverage of this series is global. scope.

Food pairing made Chu Hao understand, such as Scottish Islay single malt whiskey paired with French Belon oysters, the perfect combination of peat flavor and ocean, red wine with rich tannins paired with fatty char-grilled steak, tannins in red wine and animal Fat is a golden partner, and cantaloupe is paired with Italian Parma prosciutto, salty and sweet ingredients are the most common type, etc...the list goes on and on.

However, Chu Hao has always felt that this series is not very helpful to him. On a global scale...he has no chance to eat delicious food from all over the world.

……

Soon after, the breakfast shop launched new tricks again.

Oil residue siu mai.

4 yuan a piece.

The glutinous rice soaked on the golden siu mai buns for more than ten hours is soft and glutinous, oily and delicious.

There is a saying that a lot of oil is not bad for dishes. In the old society when there was no refrigerator, fry a large bowl of minced meat and marinate it in oil, and it will last for a long time without fear of spoilage. When cooking, scoop up a spoonful of minced meat and you can serve three bowls of rice.

Chu Hao rolled the skin by himself, boiled the oil residue with fresh baner oil to enhance the fragrance, and steamed it in a pressure cooker. It was released on the first day and sold 2000 pieces.

Luo Zheng and Chu Hao went into battle together, prepared soaked glutinous rice in advance, and wrapped it in the siu mai.

Luo Zheng was also very surprised by Chu Hao's superb pastry skills.

"Master Chu, who did you learn this skill from?"

Chu Hao smiled and said, "I didn't learn from anyone, I became a talent by myself."

Luo Zheng's pupils shrank slightly, and he was astonished, "You are a genius, you can learn by yourself better than me."

This sentence can be regarded as flattering Chu Hao.

He said with a smile: "It's really just a random study, it can't compare with the craftsmanship passed down from Master Luo's family."

The corner of Luo Zheng's mouth twitched, boss, you are too modest.

The disciples covered their mouths and laughed.

They also have pastry skills now, and they can go out and open their own shop at any time, but at the same time, Chu Hao is actually reluctant. Letting the apprentices go, the old shop will not have enough manpower, so Chu Hao still has to be the backbone.

Siu Mai is very popular.

The guests have also realized the authentic business model of Dajiuge’s. Every other week, there is a new menu, and the price is close to the people. It not only monopolizes the breakfast on North Street, but also monopolizes the barbecue at night.

The owner of the pink shop who previously stood on the same side as Chu Hao was squeezed out of business and could no longer continue his business.

But this has nothing to do with Chu Hao.

Although it is a bit of a cross-river, there are so many shops on North Street that eventually have to compete with each other. If they can’t beat the taste, they will quit. Chushi dominates the university town and takes the route of mass catering. It is really on the road and successful.

It became popular on the Internet for a period of time, raising the upper limit of passenger flow. After time, the popularity was not as explosive as before, but the customers stayed.

In the end, those who can be converted into repeat customers are the locals in the mountain city, and the outsiders just come here to try something new. Even with the blessing of the influence of the Internet celebrity economy, the conversion rate has not improved much.

This is the upper limit for brick-and-mortar restaurants.

However, in exchange, the Chushi brand was spread across the country, and the sales of chicken chili and bacon in the factory increased day by day.

The bacon, which was sold very hard before, has been supported by a large number of repeat customers online.

When opening a store online, you can ignore the region and distance. The bacon is made, vacuum packed, and shipped directly to your home. Knowing that it is the signature of Shancheng Chushi, customers will naturally have natural trust.

Since the start of mass production of bacon, it has finally begun to return to blood quickly, earning back all the previous investment, and the prospects are bright.

Chu Hao is not stupid, he wants to open a few more new products for takeaway, but for a while, he has no inspiration. His family even makes dumplings on the spot, but if they switch to a factory, they have to think about how to get the ingredients delivered. It can still maintain a higher degree of freshness in the hands of customers, and industrial mass production and store production are completely different things, and many things must be taken into consideration.

……

On this day, Chu Hao wanted a small lion head that had been scalded with water from the basin to be wrapped in dumplings. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and stared at the oily sauce-colored lion head lying in the spoon in a daze.

Jiang Qin came up to him wiping her apron with her hand and asked, "Son, are you in a daze? Why are you in a daze?"

"Mom, you said that if I take this to the factory, can it be mass-produced?" Chu Hao asked.

Jiang Qin looked confused. He glanced at the lion's head in his spoon, thought for a while and said, "It's okay, but you have to consider some problems."

Chu Hao said with a smile: "Our lion's head is used to make dumplings. The dumplings are originally one size smaller. You can scoop one with a spoon and eat one at a time. If you change some cooking methods, you can actually try it."

"Yeah, but let me tell you, there are water chestnuts in this. If you take it out and heat it after freezing, it will lose its original crispness. It doesn't matter if we open a store and make it fresh. If you are mass-producing, the freezing process is a must. Yes, what will happen then?”

Chu Hao thought for a long time.

Now he is not what he used to be.

In an instant, many alternative ingredients appeared in my mind.

"We use pork belly, finely chopped and roughly chopped to ensure the texture of the meat. If you want to improve the level, you can replace the horseshoe with diced lotus root."

Jiang Qin was taken aback for a moment, and muttered to herself: "Little lotus root..."

"Pairing with diced lotus root can make the taste richer, and the meat and diced lotus root have a double texture of crispness and glutinous texture, which can have both fish and bear's paw, and there are two kinds of lion heads in our family, one is oily Fried, one is boiled, deep-fried is not easy to preserve, and it is not healthy to eat, it can be changed to boiled, the mass production is more convenient and trouble-free, the cost can be controlled, and the customer can take it back and eat it directly in the microwave , you can also put it in the pot to cook with side dishes, and you can even use it to eat hot pot.”

Jiang Qin smiled and said: "You have a lot of ideas, and you can do this job, but you have to discuss it with Boss Qin first, she is more professional than you."

Chu Hao: ...

"I know mom."

……

A few days later, Chu Hao went to see Qin Jiangyi and her father.

Along the way, Chu Hao was still a little nervous.

Qin Jiangyi was driving in the driver's seat. She was wearing a V-neck chiffon shirt with a bow today. It was a very high-end purple, bright and white, mature and elegant. The matching of the bow on the chest made her mature again It's a little playful, and the shape is very thin. The whole body is straight and has a sense of drape. The sleeves can just hide the arms. With a pair of slightly tight jeans, the figure is undoubtedly revealed.

Chu Hao was sitting in the passenger seat and couldn't help but look down from the top of her thighs. He felt that the lines were very beautiful and there was no trace of bulk. She obviously exercised regularly.

However, Chu Hao didn't look too much, otherwise he would look too vulgar.

"What are you looking at?"

Qin Jiangyi asked coldly while driving.

Chu Hao coughed, "Actually, I want to ask, do you want to buy some presents for your dad before going?"

Qin Jiangyi said: "I don't really need it, besides, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it if you really want to buy a gift."

Chu Hao thought for a while: "Then buy some fruit, it's a sincere thing."

Qin Jiangyi: "Fruits..."

She remembered that Chu Hao was really good at buying fruit, so she swallowed and nodded, "I'll take you to the supermarket to buy it."

The two drove to a supermarket. Chu Hao looked up and saw the brand logo of 'Food is the Heaven'. He smiled and said, "Miss, this is your supermarket."

Qin Jiangyi blushed: "This is close to my home."

Chu Hao curled his lips and followed Qin Jiangyi downstairs. This supermarket was built on the basement floor. When you go down the escalator, you will see a big supermarket full of people coming and going. The lights are very bright, and there are various ingredients, fruits, Products are arranged in layers.

Qin Jiangyi obviously came here often.

The waiters in the supermarket knew her, but they didn't come up to say hello, but bowed from a long distance away, and then went on their own.

Qin Jiangyi didn't put on airs, pushed a cart, and pulled Chu Hao straight to the fruit area.

"Just buy some seasonal fruits."

Chu Hao selected some fresh mangoes with his sharp eyes. Seeing that he was picking them one by one at a very fast speed, Qin Jiangyi couldn't help asking, "How did you choose?"

Chu Hao smiled and said: "Look at the shape of the fruit. A long mango like this has a smaller core, while a short and stubby mango has a thicker core, and the peel is smoother and intact. There are no black spots around the fruit base. Most of them It's yellow-orange. The darker one you choose will be sweeter. If you touch it, does it feel firm and meaty? If it's too hard, it's obviously a bit raw. If it's not too hard, if it's soft, it's pretty good. of."

He is talking nonsense. In fact, there is no need for so many standards at all.

You can tell if it's good or not just by looking at it.

Then Chu Hao picked some mangosteens. The fruit was crushed and opened. Be careful not to stain the flesh with purple or red husk juice. The more sepals, the more pieces of mangosteen, and the greener the leaves. It means it's fresher.

When Qin Jiangyi saw Chu Hao talking eloquently, he puffed up his chest and looked up when he was shopping in the supermarket, so that he could take some time off, and he was motivated, so he chose some.

The two bought some pineapples and mulberries, and chose the ones with fuller, thicker grains, no water, and firmer ones. The red mulberries will be more sour, so the purple ones are the sweetest, indicating that they are ripe.

After carrying a few big bags into the car, Chu Hao smiled and said, "The ones you chose are not very good."

Qin Jiangyi obviously didn't believe it: "Go back and eat."

Of course it was Qin Jiangyi's home.

Familiar Tianhu Island, familiar white buildings, familiar slow-slope lawns, familiar metal stone gates.

Driving Qin Jiangyi's Mercedes-Benz to the garage, he found that there was also a long version of the black machine parked here, and it was washed like a new one, and Chu Hao was numb.

"Tsk tsk tsk, good guy, this car costs tens of millions?"

Qin Jiangyi: "I don't know, don't ask me."

Chu Hao gave her a blank look, and his heart became more and more nervous. It was the first time he saw such a big boss, and he went there as Qin Jiangyi's friend. Chu Hao thought for a long time, and felt that he couldn't embarrass Chu Shi this time.

But today he wears a white T-shirt with five-quarter sleeves embroidered shirt, more Japanese style, paired with a pair of straight-leg black cropped pants and low-top canvas shoes, it’s so casual, but Chu Hao really can’t wear it The serious kind of clothes.

The shape of the clothes is good, it can match his height, plus Chu Hao is handsome, at most, he just cut his hair casually when he came here today, and he is already very clean and refreshing.

After entering the house, I saw Qin Jiangyi's father, Qin Jianye.

He was sitting on the sofa in the living room. The BBQ grill outside the courtyard and the cook were working. White smoke was rising and the aroma was tangy. What is this roasting?
As soon as Chu Hao entered the door, he could smell the mixed aroma of basil leaves and other western seasonings. He fixed his eyes and saw a large piece of steak lying on it.

"Dad, this is Boss Chu. Chu Hao is also my good friend." Qin Jiangyi led Chu Hao into the room.

Chu Hao nodded politely to Qin Jianye, "Mr. Qin, I often hear her talking about you."

Qin Jianye nodded with a smile: "Master Chu, it's rare to see you. Don't leave today. Let's have a meal together at home. I have always wanted to see you."

Chu Hao blinked.

Want to see me?

He looked at Qin Jiangyi.

Sure enough, Qin Jiangyi's face turned slightly red...

Chu Hao frowned, ah... this couldn't be misunderstood by the father of little boss Qin, boss Qin, right?

What is the visual sense of this scene where a loving father and daughter meet their son-in-law?

Chu Hao swallowed in embarrassment, but still remained calm, looking at the handsome middle-aged man in front of him.

Qin Jianye is really handsome. The temperament of an old man is undoubtedly revealed. He is a handsome group, and he looks really young. People in their 50s are the same as 40. He is wearing a white formal shirt inside. Shirt sleeves, a face is very deep, there are wrinkles, but they are all over his face just right.

The sitting posture was also very domineering, giving Chu Hao the feeling that he was seeing Michael Corleone. He held a glass in his hand, poured a quarter of some kind of wine into it, and drank lightly.

Chu Hao sighed in his heart, his temperament was stronger than Qin Jiangyi's, and he felt overwhelming, but not suffocating.

He couldn't help sighing.

Only this kind of appearance and blood can give birth to such a beautiful girl like Qin Jiangyi.

Chu Hao couldn't help but wonder, what does Qin Jiangyi's mother... look like?
Will it be more beautiful?

He sneaked a glance at Qin Jiangyi, who was carrying fruit to the nanny to wash and cut not far away, then came up and sat next to him, and smiled at him, "Chu Hao, my dad wants to entertain you today, so I specially We have invited a famous chef from our family, and I will introduce it to you later."

Chu Hao looked around. There were people laying out cutlery and plates in the dining room opposite the arch of the living room. The standard waiters were well-trained and handsome young men in suits. In the courtyard, the cook was the oldest. , with gray hair, but with a very serious expression, his eyes are facing the steaks on the oven like a falcon, and some nannies and aunts are also standing in different areas ready to serve and obey orders.

What is this...

Is the life of the rich family like this?

Chu Hao didn't understand.

He could only silence himself, listen more and talk less.

Qin Jiangyi poured a glass of wine for Chu Hao, and also poured a glass for herself, and looked at Qin Jianye, "Dad, don't you have something to say to Chu Hao?"
