Chapter 2 Supreme Tea Egg

"D-level difficulty food? Are there grades for food?" Bai Xiaobai asked the system in confusion.

The system presents words: The difficulty of food production is divided into five levels: D, C, B, A, and S, from simple to complex.

"Then can you skip directly to the S-level difficulty food." Bai Xiaobai saw the level classification, and wanted to soar into the sky, and directly cook the most difficult one.

Because Bai Xiaobai's shop sells tea eggs every day, and often they can't sell them all, so they eat them by themselves.

Besides, tea eggs are really common. Many breakfast shops can make them, and they are not challenging or unique.

Bai Xiaobai wants to take a shortcut, and it is best to find delicious dishes that can immediately become the restaurant's golden signboard.

But the reality is that it is impossible for Bai Xiaobai to soar into the sky.

[The host level is not enough to make it, so you can only learn from the simple ones, and you can't jump. 】The system immediately poured a basin of cold water.

"Okay, let's go to Supreme Tea Eggs." Although Bai Xiaobai really wanted to make difficult delicacies directly, he calmed down and thought about it carefully. Learning should be done step by step. After all, eating one bite won't make you fat.

Soon, a large paragraph of golden words about making supreme tea eggs flew into Bai Xiaobai's mind and was slowly absorbed.

Tea eggs are one of the traditional Chinese snacks, and there are almost breakfast stalls all over the country.Ordinary families can also do it, but according to the different tastes of each region, everyone's method is similar.

In the past two years, Bai Xiaobai has been making tea eggs almost every day, so the method is well known by heart.

First put the eggs in the pot under cold water. In order to prevent the egg liquid from overflowing, put a small teaspoon of salt in the water in advance.Boil eggs and place in cold water to cool.

In order to taste better, after cooling, you need to crack the eggs lightly, as long as the surface is slightly broken.After the eggs are ready, they can be put into a pot of tea that has been boiled in advance, and seasoned with salt, star anise, dark soy sauce, etc. in the tea.

Of course, depending on personal taste, the seasonings put in are not exactly the same.

After adjusting the tea sauce soup, put the eggs into it and cook for ten minutes, then turn off the heat, and soak for more than an hour, and you're done.

The production method of the system is basically the same as the traditional method, but there are several steps that are completely beyond Bai Xiaobai's expectations.

A system is a system, no wonder it is called Supreme Tea Egg.

[Extreme tea egg learning and upgrading time, 10 minutes] The electronic sound rang again.

"Twenty and ten minutes more?" Bai Xiaobai originally thought that he could start doing it right away, but he didn't expect to wait for the upgrade.

I looked at the time, because I got up early, so it is still very early.Although there was no breakfast ready in the store, Bai Xiaobai took advantage of this gap and opened the shutter.

Just at this moment, the rolling shutter door of the shop next door also opened, a bald middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears yawned, twisted his waist, saw Bai Xiaobai, showing his yellow teeth, and said with a smile, "Oh, Boss Bai, why did you get up so early today?"

"Boss Wang is also early." Bai Xiaobai also greeted politely.

"You can't get up early. The gas has only been used for a long time and it is almost gone. Now I can't even make breakfast. After all, it seems that Boss Bai hasn't changed the gas tank for a month."

The last sentence is a code word in the catering industry, which means that your business has not been doing well recently.

Bai Xiaobai knew that Boss Wang's words were running on him, but he still laughed.

One cannot lose grace.

Boss Wang smiled and looked Bai Xiaobai up and down again, then whistled and pulled the gas tank on a motorcycle.

As the saying goes, peers are enemies, this is true in Bai Xiaobai's view.

Wang Tuzi, the boss next door, also runs a restaurant. He has studied in the new X Fang cooking school that has been advertised on TV for several years, so he does have some real skills.

In addition, every meal time, Baldy Wang would yell at the door of the store, attracting nearly half of the customers on the street.

Needless to say, Wang Baldzi's method of soliciting customers is still very good.

But he specifically picks out single men.This is a bit embarrassing. Those who know are Baldy Wang pulling people into his restaurant to eat, but those who don't know think they are soliciting people to eat 'fast food'.

I also blame Bai Xiaobai for not living up to expectations, and learning to solicit customers without shame, so the business in the store has been bleak, and sometimes it really doesn't need to change the gas tank for a month.

In fact, it is fair competition. To put it bluntly, it is inferior to others in skills, so Bai Xiaobai is convinced in his heart.But every evening, Bai Xiaobai was really annoyed when he heard Baldy Wang proudly showing off how much money he made today.

Now that there is a system, Bai Xiaobai really wants to learn some real skills and put an end to the arrogance of Baldy Wang next door.

After waiting for a long time, the electronic sound of the system finally sounded again.

[Ding dong—the upgrade is complete, the ingredients have been prepared for the host, and you can start making D-level gourmet supreme tea eggs]

"Should there be no charge for ingredients?" Bai Xiaobai thought of the black technology of the system, and felt lingering fear just after deducting his decoration fee.

[All the ingredients consumed by the host to learn the dishes will be provided by the system for free, and the dishes sold will be charged separately]

"What do you mean by another count?" Bai Xiaobai didn't want to suffer from being dumb again.

[The host will be informed later, please make the Supreme Tea Egg first]

"..." The system talked about this, so Bai Xiaobai didn't break the casserole and asked the bottom line.

After returning to the glass kitchen, there are already a lot of ingredients on the cabinet chopping board.

I don't know how the system was created out of thin air.

The most eye-catching ingredient is the egg in the enamel basin.

The surface of these eggs is light brown, very clean, and each egg is almost the same size, and I don't know how the system selects them.

Is it possible to use a tape measure to measure the waistline of these eggs one by one?
In addition to the enamel basin for the eggs, there is also a small pot of unlabeled tea beside the chopping board.

Bai Xiaobai unscrewed the tea pot, and a natural tea aroma came over his face.

It smells so good even before soaking it!What kind of tea is this?

It is said that the way of tasting tea is "one cup is the product, two cups is the thirst quencher, and three cups is the drink of cattle and mules."

In this way, Bai Xiaobai belongs to the category of two cups. For him, drinking tea is just trying to quench his thirst.Therefore, he only has a general understanding of tea. He has not studied the difference between black tea, green tea, and oolong tea.

But with such a strong tea fragrance, this tea is definitely not simple.

In addition to the eggs and tea leaves, the kitchen shelves are filled with various spices and seasonings.

The ingredients were ready, and according to the systematic method, Bai Xiaobai began to show his skills.

Put the raw eggs in a special container and cook them in advance, then soak them in cold water for 2 minutes, then slightly crack the surface shell of the eggs for later use.

The next step is to prepare the key sauce tea soup.

Generally, breakfast shops just grab a handful of tea leaves and throw them into a pot of boiling water, and then season them.Very easy and hassle-free.

But the method of the system is different. It needs to be like making tea, without leaving the tea leaves, and only taking the tea soup to boil the eggs.

This is to prevent the tea leaves from soaking in water for a long time and produce a little bitter taste, and to keep the tea itself as fragrant and sweet as possible.

Of course, the way of making tea is also very particular.

What oolong enters the palace, high mountains and flowing water are all indispensable.

Bai Xiaobai seriously suspects that he is engaging in tea ceremony now, not like boiling tea eggs.

The movements of the hands are so smooth and smooth, it feels like a chef possessed by him with ease.

Although I don't know the types of tea leaves provided by the system, the tea soup that is brewed is maroon red and has an incomparable fragrance. It must be good tea.

Bai Xiaobai was intoxicated by the fragrance of the tea soup, so eager to drink tea that he almost forgot that he was making tea eggs.

After the tea soup is ready, add salt, dark soy sauce, and other seasonings into it, and then put the boiled eggs into the seasoned tea soup.Everything is ready, you can cover the rice cooker and simmer.

Beep...

After simmering for less than 20 seconds, the lid of the pot opened automatically.

The tea eggs that Bai Xiaobai used to make had to be boiled in a pot for at least 1 minutes to get the taste. The electric cooker of this system can finish it in less than [-] minute. There is really no one else.

Black technology is really not called for nothing.

After the pot was opened, the room was full of fragrance for a while.

The fragrance of tea leaves is mixed with the aroma of soy sauce, which has an incomparable wonderful feeling.Just smelling this fragrance makes people's index fingers wide open.

The surface of the tea eggs is stained with the color of purple sand due to the simmering of the tea sauce, which is very pleasing to the eye.

Bai Xiaobai didn't eat breakfast, and the smell of tea leaves and eggs aroused the glutton in his stomach.

Regardless of the hot hands, Bai Xiaobai directly peeled the supreme tea egg clean.

The outer shell is peeled off, and the supreme tea egg reveals the yellow-brown protein pattern.

Bai Xiaobai swallowed and took a bite.

Just one bite.

Bai Xiaobai could hardly believe that the tea eggs were made by himself.

Although the appearance is the same as the tea eggs made by myself before, the taste is quite different.

Compared with the Supreme Tea Eggs now, the tea eggs I made in the past are simply not edible.

The protein on the outside is salty and delicious, and the taste of the sauce is well preserved on the surface of the protein.

The egg yolk inside is soft, glutinous and smooth, and the more you chew, the more fragrant it becomes.

The fragrance of tea leaves mixed with the aroma of soy sauce slowly lingers between the gaps between the mouth and mouth, and it lasts for a long time, making people want to stop. .

With just two mouthfuls, Bai Xiaobai finished a tea egg.

[50 yuan, thank the host for your patronage] The cool electronic stereo is ready.

The tea egg in Bai Xiaobai's mouth was just in his throat, and he hadn't swallowed it completely. After hearing the price revealed by the system, he almost choked to death.

After patting his chest several times, Bai Xiaobai calmed down a little, "Hold the grass, the system, you are kidding me, a tea egg is fifty, so why not just take a knife and go outside the bank and wait for the cashier to come out and rob."

These few words of Bai Xiaobai are from the heart.

No matter how delicious the supreme tea eggs are, they cannot be so ridiculously expensive. They are more than [-] times more expensive than those on the market. Isn't this an obvious robbery?
[The bank card has been debited, thank the host for your patronage]

Bai Xiaobai wanted to cry but had no tears.

Fifty for a tea egg?Is this egg laid by a swan?
No, swan eggs are several times bigger than chicken eggs.

[Host, there is a reason why you are expensive, you get what you pay for, and the system provides top-notch ingredients]

Bai Xiaobai was unconvinced. After all, he has also been in catering for two years, and the account will still be settled. "It's just an egg, some tea leaves, and the cost price is less than one piece. The system, tell me, how is it top-notch?" Fa, 50 yuan will be charged."

[The laying hens selected by the system are stocked near Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain, fed with special and precious wild herbs, and drink natural mineral water from Changbai Mountain.The eggs laid by this kind of chicken are called emperor yellow tribute eggs, which were the rare treasures of tribute to emperors in ancient times]

It turned out to be Emperor Yellow Gong Egg!
Bai Xiaobai felt a little better when he heard this.He had heard of this kind of egg. Not only was it rich in nutrition, but its cholesterol content was only one tenth of that of ordinary eggs.

It costs about ten yuan to buy one such egg in the market, and there is still a price but no market. Ordinary people can't buy it even if they want to. They are special offerings for leaders to eat.

"What about the tea?" Bai Xiaobai continued to ask the system after he felt a little better.

[The tea used in the system is Keemun black tea of ​​national gift level. 】

I'll be good! !

When Bai Xiaobai heard this, he almost clicked his tongue.

No wonder the tea soup brewed from the tea leaves just now is full of fragrance, filling the room with fragrance.It turned out that Keemun black tea known as the 'Queen of Black Tea' was used.

Although Bai Xiaobai doesn't know much about tea, he has also heard of state-level Keemun black tea. This level of tea is given directly by XXX to Queen XXXX of England to make milk tea, and the tea soup can still be bright red after ten brews.Ordinary people may not even see it in their lives, let alone drink it.

There is no one in the system, and they cook eggs directly with this level of black tea.If a certain tea tasting expert heard it, he would probably be beating his chest and stamping his feet, cursing and throwing away everything.

Keemun black tea of ​​the top national gift level!

Top Changbai Mountain free-range eggs!

Top Natural Excipients!

Top system equipment!

Plus top chef craftsmanship! (Added by Bai Xiaobai boasting)

The cooked tea eggs are worthy of being the supreme king among tea eggs.

Bai Xiaobai's current feeling towards the Supreme Tea Egg is yes.

one character service

two words are very convincing

The three words are very convincing.

Regardless of the appearance, taste or price of the Supreme Tea Egg, Bai Xiaobai is very convinced.
