From a barbecue stand to a global gourmet tycoon

Chapter 213 Lu Chenyu's Family Banquet ([-])

"This is actually one of the classic dishes in Shandong cuisine. It is eaten the most in Shangjing. The forms of fried dishes, such as scallion fried, garlic fried, sauce fried, oil fried, and palace fried, can all be called fried. Adding starch and not starching is the key point, if you eat mutton with starch in the restaurant in the future, it must be fake and it will not taste good.”

The next dish is still vinegared vegetables, old vinegar mandarin fish.

Chu Hao bought about two catties. Although the fish was farmed, it was very fresh when he bought it.

"The meat under the gills of live fish will turn out when fried. Remember, when eating fish outside in the future, dead fish will not look like this when fried."

Next door, Wei Jiajia took a closer look, and her heart shivered.

The last time the whole family went out to eat, Dad ordered sweet and sour fish, just like what Chu Hao said, the meat under the gills did not turn out, it was obviously fried from dead fish, but she also felt that the dish was delicious at the time. delicious.

After listening to Chu Hao's explanation today, I immediately felt that it was extremely unpalatable. No wonder, it was fried from dead fish.

When Chu Hao finished explaining, she didn't listen much and couldn't help but pick up the fattest one with her chopsticks first.

The fish is very tender and mixed with the juice, especially the vinegar, which does not overwhelm the umami of the fish.

Wei Jiajia didn't understand the tricks here.

Chu Hao was very precise in the proportion of vinegar. It was not choking at all, very soft and fragrant.

Zhong Chenglin told him.

When an experienced cook uses vinegar, he will never make it acidic, but will make it fragrant.

If the vinegared vegetables are not sour, it is qualified for the first layer, and if it tastes very fragrant, it is truly qualified.

But in fact, people who know a little bit can judge it.

In fact, Lu Chenyu thought of it.

Today's dishes, according to everyone, are Shandong dishes, but Chu Hao has always cooked Sichuan dishes.

Could it be that he has already started to teach himself Lu cuisine?
But this dish was also very delicious. Lu Chenyu took a yellow rice jujube, chewed it in small mouths, broke it open, stuffed a jujube into it, steamed it, and she could eat it, and the jujube core was removed. Very strong jujube flavor.

The yellow rice was also steamed, grabbed a handful, wrapped the jujube stuffing in it, and fried it again, because the taste was very special and distinct, so Lu Chenyu could eat it, ahem, it was definitely not because she looked at it Chu Hao personally put the yellow rice balls into the frying pan.

This thing is like a deep-fried rice crust. The surface is very crispy, but the yellow rice inside is very sticky and fragrant.

Today's dishes are all traditional dishes, but Chu Hao made a little innovation with his own method.

There was too little time for him to prepare.

In such a short period of time, it is not easy to know how to use vinegar to enhance the color.

Of course, Chu Hao didn't put in much effort himself.

For him, cooking at home is not work, so why should he go all out, he can make very delicious dishes just by doing it, so he doesn't pay much attention to it.

Except for the jar meat dish, which was of state banquet quality, the other dishes on the entire table were far from adequate.

Chu Hao also understood what level he was at.

If he pays attention, at least half of his ten dishes will be of state banquet quality.

If you don't pay too much attention, if you can get one or two out of ten dishes, that's pretty good.

The so-called criterion of being careful or not is whether he has fully utilized the system abilities he carries.

Just the [dialogue with food], being able to look good, allows him to prepare a very simple, common people's home-cooked dish to a very high standard.

……

The explanation is over.

Lu Chenyu pulled him to the side and sat down, and gave Chu Hao a bowl full of vegetables.

"Honey, thank you for your hard work. This is all my love for you!"

When Lu Chenyu generously pushed a bowl of vegetables over, everyone at the table let out a cry of disgust.

"Hey! Deer, you are so annoying!"

"Is this necessary?"

"We are still single! Can you please take care of the single dog's mood?"

But Chu Hao didn't feel shy.

Because for him, this is Lu Chenyu's way of expressing love.

Maybe it was intentional for others to see in front of outsiders, or some people thought it was Lu Chenyu's lack of security, or it was just a formality, etc.

But if you tell her to be reserved, she still can't.

This is her.

There is no need to change.

……

After Chu Hao came to the table, the atmosphere became much more relaxed.

After all, as soon as he explained, the eating process became much more rigid.

Fortunately, Chu Hao's explanation was not a long list, and he only briefly showed the dish itself with various skills displayed.

After the explanation, he also became a member of the table.

Lu Chenyu seemed to have found a supporter, looking for drinks everywhere.

After drinking the wine, Chu Hao wiped it off with a paper towel, and Lu Chenyu poured food and water for Chu Hao from time to time. When someone came to toast, Lu Chenyu directly blocked the wine for him with a big grin. Said: "His injury is just right, if he can't drink so much wine, I will come!"

I don't know if Chu Hao became her backer, or if she became Chu Hao's shield.

The mentality of Yuan Yuan and others was greatly affected.

Wei Jiajia envied her sister's two friends. They were inseparable and seemed to be very loving. However, it was heard that the two were not married yet, but they were just living together before marriage. Later, they heard that the cohabitation was with the consent of their parents. Wei Jiajia felt uncomfortable. Views have been wiped out.

Parental consent, unmarried cohabitation?
Are there any such enlightened parents?

Later, Wang Jiaying asked: "Xiaolu, you and Chu Hao have been together for so long, have you ever thought about having children?"

Lu Chenyu glanced at Chu Hao and said, "I've thought about it."

Then everyone looked at Chu Hao, thinking that he was incompetent.

Chu Hao rolled his eyes, "Don't look at me, old couples, just follow the rules, everything else depends on fate."

Wang Jiaying immediately chuckled.

"Follow the rules...Chu Hao, can you do it!"

She prefers to make jokes like this.

The scale is relatively large.

Wei Qiqi frowned beside her and said, "Jiaying, my sister is still here, so be careful with what you say."

Wang Jiaying smiled and looked at Wei Jiajia: "Jiajia, cover your ears, the next topic is not suitable for children."

Wei Jiajia's face turned red.

The helpless elder sister picked up a bunch of vegetables for her and rushed to the balcony.

Even Chu Hao couldn't stand this straightforward interrogation.

Lu Chenyu has the best personality and can take jokes, "Jiaying, you're still talking about me, you're almost 30, don't you have a boyfriend yet?"

Wang Jiaying snorted and flipped her hair with her hand, "I can't help it. I'm so naturally beautiful that it's hard to give up. When boys see me, they don't even have the guts to come up and ask for my phone number."

Today's boys are too timid.

She is too pretty, but no one chases after her.

Yuan Yuan asked, "Has your family urged you?"

Wang Jiaying shook her head: "They don't care about me. My mother said that with my personality, no one wants me at all, and she made me ready to die alone."

Then everyone burst out laughing.

Chu Hao listened beside him, feeling a lot of emotion.

Wang Jiaying is the kind of person who loves to play. He didn't ask whether she was clean and self-loving. He didn't dare to ask. He heard that she had had several boyfriends before, but they all broke up in the end. Now that she is older, people in the circle have gradually begun to treat her as sister. After claiming to be a self-proclaimed person, he is gradually not as easy to be chased as before.

Her beauty is that stunning feeling. She is still a moderate internet celebrity on the Internet, with more than 100 million fans.

However, in Chu Hao's eyes, Wang Jiaying is still relatively rare.

At least she understands that the sisters in the circle in front of her are all sincere and have been together for such a long time, so she cherishes it very much. In fact, she has many friends outside, but they are usually wine and meat friends. I am very happy, but if I really want to encounter troubles and hurdles, no one will help you.

However, Wang Jiaying is not the eldest sister in this circle.

Yuan Yuan is the one.

Her temperament hadn't changed much, except that she occasionally heard Lu Chenyu say that Yuan Yuan's new relationship had broken up again.

She must be a bit celibate now.

Even if it wasn't, she didn't treat love like a little girl, she didn't marry anyone, she didn't have that kind of passion.

Now that she has a house, a car, and deposits, she is a proper middle-class lady who wants to fall in love. With a buzz in Moments, a lot of good guys are willing to line up and raise their hands.

But that's all for fun.

Not really.

As for the others, Chu Hao didn't pay much attention.

Leng Xuerui and Lin Rou are in love, and they occasionally check their mobile phones and chat for a while while eating.

Gu Zhen and Xue Yatong, their looks and figures are the most inconspicuous, and they are currently single. Fortunately, they both have people they like, but it is impossible for them to actively pursue love.

They were all infected by Yuan Yuan and Wang Jiaying, and had the same views on some concepts.

Only Lu Chenyu is the most special.

Because she is the only girl among the sisters who has found true love.

Dare to love, dare to hate, and have a good personality. The sisters all felt that despite her appearance, she was a fool, but in fact, she was just silent. She became a blockbuster, and her moves were steady and accurate. Wouldn't this be enough to win over Chu Hao?

……

Three rounds of wine.

Lu Chenyu leaned on Chu Hao's shoulder and chatted with Yuan Yuan beside him.

Wang Jiaying answered several phone calls and refused to go out for entertainment at night.

Wei Qiqi and her sister are sitting in the living room watching TV and eating fruit.

The remaining people also found someone to chat with.

The atmosphere is no longer as lively as before.

Chu Hao yawned, opened Lu Chenyu's head and let her lean on the back of his chair, got up and said, "I'm going to wash the dishes, and I'll order some snacks and fruits, you guys talk first."

He quickly cleared the table and plates by himself, because of the buff of [Food is the Heaven of the People], they ate up all the dishes today, and there was nothing left.

This skill is very good.

At least you don't have to deal with leftovers every day.

Even in this restaurant, there are never any leftovers, and those who can’t finish the food are packed away.

This is also a characteristic of music here, and many people find it very novel.

I don’t know how to achieve happiness here.

After washing the dishes, Chu Hao ordered some fruit, then was busy in the kitchen, washing and scrubbing, and finally brought a plate of snacks made by himself, which was neatly and beautifully arranged.

"Everyone is here for some snacks."

"There are fried rice cakes, peach puree, and chestnut cakes, and this is pea cake..."

Exquisite little pastries were brought out one by one.

Some are quite steamy.

It is freshly made.

And some are semi-finished products made before cooking in the afternoon.

Fried rice cakes, using rhubarb rice noodles, adding sugar, warm water, and salad oil to make it sticky, knead it slowly, brush the oil on the plate and steam it directly in the pan, after steaming, knead it while it is hot, it is a test of the master's steel iron hands, Otherwise, it is easy to get burned.

Chu Hao is no longer a steel hand, he has long been forged into iron sand palms, brush oil on the chopping board, pinch them out one by one, wrap them with bean paste filling and rose filling, and fry them in a frying pan.

Stick with white sugar, the more you chew, the more fragrant it becomes, and the stickiness and crispness of the noodles are endless aftertaste.

Peach mud, peach is peach kernel, mud is bread mud, peeled, soaked and wrung out, add egg yolk, put into the pan, spread out with lard, add sugar, a bit like three non-stick, fry thoroughly in the pan, add peach kernel, green For red silk, make an egg white paste, cover it after foaming, and steam it in a pan.

This is a traditional Chinese cake, soft in the mouth, rich in peach kernel flavor, and very chewy.

Chestnut cake, boiled for four to 10 minutes in advance, smashed radish, the chestnuts that come out are as fine as sand, fried pine nuts, sugared osmanthus, mixed and pressed, pressed into a mold, and ready to eat, the taste is fragrant and dry Sweet, nothing added, only the original taste of chestnuts, and the crunchy taste of sugar inside.

pea cake.

Peeled peas, boiled in cold water with alkali, boiled into a granular paste, added some gardenia water, sugar, green plums, cut a yard of persimmons, spread osmanthus sauce, covered with bean paste, put it in the refrigerator to set and cool, the taste is very good Sand, and the aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus, have a completely different taste from the delicate pea yellow.

Look around.

All serious Chinese dim sum.

And I still put my heart into it.

Lu Chenyu suddenly realized, and tapped his hand with a small fist, "So that's it, I said you were making dim sum when you fried it before!"

Chu Hao: "Try it."

At this moment, everyone gathered in the living room again.

"Wow, I didn't expect there would be dessert after the meal."

"I knew I would stop drinking, but now I can't taste anything."

"This pea cake is so sweet, and it's cool, so comfortable!"

"I'm afraid of getting fat after eating this..."

On the side, Wei Jiajia’s eyes lit up.

Is this the master chef?
Can even make desserts.

In fact, these desserts are usually practiced when you have nothing to do, not specially practiced.

The taste standard is actually average, not to that extent.

But for Yuan Yuan and the others, it was already very tasty.

Especially when eaten with fruits, it is sweet and sour, refreshing and addictive, which makes people unable to stop.

Lu Chenyu ate several fried rice cakes, which were very sweet to his heart. Because he was in a hurry to eat, he suddenly became stuffed. He looked uncomfortable and hit his chest with his fist.

Chu Hao had a dark look on his face, "Who stole the food from you? Why did you eat so fast?"

Then he went up and smoothed it for her.

Only then did Lu Chenyu regain his strength, and he still didn't forget to swallow the piece he was chewing.

Wang Jiaying sat nearby without even looking at them, but said, "Hey, can you wait until we leave before you start touching us again, in front of us?"

Chu Hao: ...

I just give her a smooth chest normally.

However, Lu Chenyu shyly pressed her forehead against Chu Hao's chin. Because of her shyness, she hugged him with both hands, and behind Chu Hao, she showed a small head and smiled.
