Food starts with noodles

It didn't take long for Yu Peiyong to reply with a message: "It's a good shot, my granddaughter is awesome."

Then there is no text.

Xu Zhuo and Yu Keke looked at each other in blank dismay, the relationship between these two people is really like a mystery.

"Xiaozhuo, your little girlfriend has made a good video, come here, grandpa has a reward."

The old man didn't know when he came back. He seemed to have just watched the video, and his voice was full of excitement. The video obviously scratched his itch.

When the two came out, they realized that no one was playing mahjong anymore, and they were all watching the video and posting bullet screens. Li Hao kept reposting it to get more people to watch the video.

Regardless of whether Huaiyang Housekeeping Famous Dishes Braised Fish Head or the identity of the old man's state banquet chef, they are very attractive, even those who have no interest in station B will click on the link to read it.

The old man looked happy, and took out a red envelope and handed it to Yu Keke: "Come on, little girl, this is a reward from grandpa. The video was shot very well, I like it very much."

Yu Keke glanced at Xu Zhuo with a hesitant expression.

The red envelope was at least 2 yuan, and Yu Keke didn't know whether he should accept it or not.

"Grandpa gave it to me, take it." Xu Zhuo gently pushed Yu Keke, and took the money first before talking. The old man is in high spirits now, so if he doesn't accept it now, what if he regrets it?

Yu Keke took it and said thank you sweetly.

The old man was in a good mood. He watched the video again with his mobile phone, but he was still a little unsatisfied.

"Girl, tell me, what do you want to eat tomorrow, grandpa will make it for you."

He is liking Yu Keke more and more, and the videos he made are so good that he never gets tired of watching them.

Xu Zhuo couldn't laugh or cry because of his full-bodied appearance.

It's just to make a braised fish head, why are you so excited?

Seeing that Yu Keke didn't speak, the old man asked again: "Just tell me what you want to eat, no matter Shandong cuisine or Huaiyang cuisine, grandpa can satisfy your requirements."

The old man's self-confidence grew more and more, and he even dared to say this.

Naturally, Yu Keke would not disappoint him, she thought for a while before saying, "I want to eat double-skinned swordfish."

Tsk, this girl really deserves to be Boss Xu's girlfriend, and she is as good at breaking things as Boss Xu.

"Double skin knife fish?"

Everyone in the living room was stunned, and the younger ones had never heard of this dish.

And Wei Junming and Xu Wenhai knew how to make this dish, and they were holding back their laughter at the moment.

Boss Xu almost laughed out loud. The old man had found the wrong partner for pretending to be aggressive this time. The little girl stumped him with just one dish.

Double skin knife fish is also a famous dish in Huaiyang cuisine, but it is much more difficult than removing the stewed fish head.

Because this dish needs to take out the fish bones of the saury fish completely, and then carefully scrape out the fish meat, keeping the fish skin intact.

The scraped minced fish is chopped into minced fish, added with fat pork, egg white and other auxiliary materials to make a filling, then evenly spread on the fish skin, and finally restored to a complete saury.

Put the prepared saury on a plate, serve with ham slices, bamboo shoots, green onion, ginger and other ingredients, and steam in a pan. Remove the onion and ginger after being out of the pan, and decant the soup.

Another pot of clear chicken soup was set up, boiled over high heat, added refined salt, then water starch was added to thicken the soup, and then cooked lard was poured in to increase the aroma and taste.

Finally, pour the prepared soup on the fish, and the double skin knife fish is done.

The difficulty of this dish is to scrape out all the bones and flesh of the saury while keeping the skin intact, and at the end, fill the fish paste back to restore the saury to its original shape.

Don't get me wrong, just thinking about it can make many chefs feel powerless.

Even if they are as strong as Wei Junming and Xu Wenhai, there is no guarantee that they can do well. If the grass carp and the two of them might dare to challenge it, but the slender body of the saury fish will overturn if it is a little careless.

As for Boss Xu, don't ask, if you ask, I'll kill myself and show you.

He didn't want to embarrass himself with a dish that would drive the chef crazy.

The old man's smile froze. He thought that Yu Keke would eat Wensi tofu with three shreds or sunflower meat, even three sets of duck would be fine. He never expected that this girl would order a not-so-famous but not-so-difficult double skin knifefish.

You people who are old at home really have trouble with Xu Jimin, right?

Chapter 259 Braised Rice with Bacon

Of course, it's not that the old man can't make it, but this dish is rarely made, and if he tries it forcibly, he will probably overturn it.

Not to mention the old man, even the long-established masters of Huaiyang cuisine, including Yu Peiyong, rarely have chefs to cook this dish.

Besides, it is not the season to eat saury. If you want to eat saury, you have to eat it around Qingming, when the saury tastes delicious.

The old man said to Yu Keke: "Girl, it's not the season to eat saury, and you can't buy saury in Rongcheng. I'll make it for you next year after Qingming. You can change it."

Yu Keke behaved this time, she blurted out: "Squirrel mandarin fish."

The squirrel mandarin fish is actually a variant of the Shandong cuisine sweet and sour Yellow River carp, except for the addition of knife flowers, there is no other difference.

It is said that this dish was brought over by the chefs of Bianliang when the Song Dynasty moved south, but no one can tell whether it is true or not.

However, Bianliang and Yangzhou do have a lot in common. For example, they both strive for excellence in food, such as a variety of steamed buns, and Yangzhou’s squirrel mandarin fish and Bianliang’s carp baked noodles are even more similar.

The carp baked noodles are the most basic variant of sweet and sour carp. The only difference from sweet and sour carp is that there are some fried dragon beard noodles.

Different from sweet and sour carp, squirrel mandarin fish has very high requirements on knife skills. For example, the whole fish has to be deboned and stabbed, and the body of the fish has to be cut into a flower knife, so that it will appear fluffy like a squirrel tail when fried.

Although the difficulty is not small, it is nothing to the old man.

He even said with a smile: "Let's shoot tomorrow, just like today."

Xu Zhuo doesn't make many videos recently, but he didn't expect the old man to become addicted.

This is also very good, there are video updates on the account, at least it can maintain the current popularity, no matter for Zhou Wen or Meng Liwei, it is a good thing.

Of course, when the Sifang restaurant opens in the future, this huge popularity will also attract many customers to come to taste it.

When kimchi and pickles are launched in the future, the users of station B alone should be able to support Yao Meixiang's online store.

"Xiao Zhuo, how about we eat fried sugar cakes and vegetable corners tomorrow morning?"

Wei Junming sent an invitation to Xu Zhuo, and changed the topic by the way, so as not to embarrass the old man by mentioning the double-skinned knife fish.

Xu Zhuo nodded: "Okay, I just want to eat too."

Chen Guifang also quite agrees, last time when Xu Zhuo and Wei Junming were frying sugar cakes and vegetable corners in the store, they were so hungry that they asked Xu Wenhai to make it for her, but Xu Wenhai still fried it.

Chen Guifang was so angry that she ignored him all day.

Now that she can eat her son's fried food, Chen Guifang naturally agrees with both hands.

After the matter was settled, Xu Zhuo went out with Meng Liwei's backpack and went to the hotel on the street to open two rooms, just when Meng Liwei came back from a haircut.

The two bought some lo-mei and beer in a small shop next to them. After returning to their room and dormitory, they put the lo-mei on the table and put the beer aside, then turned on the group video and held an online party with their brothers in the dormitory.

Because of Meng Liwei's divorce, the atmosphere of this gathering was obviously a lot heavier.

Meng Liwei, on the other hand, had calmed down after a day of tossing around. He kept patting his hair with his mobile phone, showing off his volume in front of the four programmers.

Although Meng Liwei's hair volume is not as much as Xu Zhuo's, it is still more than enough to beat up the four programmers in their dormitory.

They recalled the interesting things in school, encouraged Meng Liwei to start again, and congratulated Xu Zhuo on finding a partner by the way, which surprised them even more than Meng Liwei.

When Meng Liwei got married, two of the bridesmaids were obviously interested in Xu Zhuo. As a result, not only did Boss Xu say nothing, but he kept pretending to be deaf and dumb to his hints.

Seeing that several programmers were anxious, it's a pity that they don't have Xu Zhuo's good looks, otherwise they would be able to live the addiction of being a scumbag.

It's a pity that they are not good looking, and they have no chance to be a scumbag, which hit them hard.

"Brothers, starting tomorrow, I'm going to be eating and broadcasting, live eating, you all know my appetite, tomorrow I will post a link in the circle of friends, and you guys should click in to join in."

Meng Liwei drank several bottles of beer in a row, but he was not drunk. He was still thinking about doing a live broadcast tomorrow.

The programmers couldn't do anything else, but it was no problem to click on the link to watch the live broadcast. When they learned that Meng Liwei planned to broadcast live on Station B, they hurriedly registered for an account on Station B.

Waking up in the morning, Xu Zhuo first went to Yao Meixiang's house to make noodles, and then strolled to the vegetable market to buy side dishes for the fried vegetable corner.

By the way, he also bought the dishes for making bacon stewed rice.

At noon, he planned to make bacon stewed rice at home, so he quickly finished the task so as not to keep thinking about it.

Li Hao and Meng Liwei didn't eat at home at noon, they went to the buffet and continued to teach the young boss, so there was no need to prepare too many dishes.

In addition to making bacon stewed rice as a side dish, Xu Zhuo also bought some green vegetables. If he had time, he would ask Wei Junming or Xu Wenhai to fry bacon.

After turning around and returning home, Xu Wenhai and the old man also got up.

The kitchen was too small to be busy, so a few people wrapped the vegetable corners and sugar cakes in the living room, then Xu Zhuo was in charge of deep frying, and Xu Wenhai cooked a salty soup to go with it.

By the time everyone got up, the candied cakes and vegetable corners had already been fried. Xu Zhuo also found the steamed buns left over from the previous two days from the refrigerator, cut them into slices, wrapped them in egg wash, and fried them.

Wei Junming was free and had nothing to do, so he cooked a few side dishes.

After a group of people washed up, they began to eat breakfast.

After breakfast, Yao Meixiang and Wei Junming went out to handle the social security relocation, and sent some money to Cao Kun to order the bacon.

The old man also took Xu Wenhai to take a taxi to talk with Zhang Zhengde. After returning this time, it may be difficult to see Zhang Zhengde again. According to Zhang Yuejin's introduction, the old man Zhang may not see him for a few months.

So now, while he is still in Rongcheng, the old man plans to run around more, doing his best to behave like a junior.

When it was almost noon, Li Hao and Meng Liwei took the live broadcast equipment and prepared to go out to class.

Meng Liwei looked at Xu Zhuo and asked, "Xu Zhuo, are you really not going? I still want to try to interact with you."

Xu Zhuo smiled: "You go, I'm going to make this bacon stewed rice at home, if it's delicious, I'll make another pot in the afternoon, it will definitely make you enjoy it."

Yu Keke wanted to follow along to watch the fun, but immediately changed his mind after hearing this: "I'll stay too, and I'll try the bacon stewed rice for you."

Sun Panpan didn't like being on camera, and wasn't very interested in the buffet, so he stayed.

Just like that, Zhou Wen took Li Hao and Meng Liwei to class, while Sun Panpan Yu Keke and Chen Guifang were at home preparing to eat the bacon braised rice made by Xu Zhuo.

It was getting late, Xu Zhuo went into the kitchen and started to cook braised rice with bacon.

When Chen Guifang had nothing to do, she sat in the living room with the two girls and watched "Parasite" that Li Hao downloaded in the morning.

While watching, Chen Guifang glanced at the kitchen: "Say, should we order some takeaways?"

Chapter 260 Krypton Invincible

Although Chen Guifang likes to eat the food made by Xu Zhuo, she still has lingering fears about the dark dishes made by Xu Zhuo in the early years.

Sometimes Boss Xu was idle at home during the summer vacation and wanted to go to the kitchen to show his filial piety, but she stopped her. She was really afraid of Xu Zhuo cooking.

Although there is no such problem now, but Xu Zhuo has never cooked bacon stewed rice, and if it is not prepared properly, the car will overturn.

Xu Zhuo in the kitchen didn't know that his mother took the lead in dismantling his table.

He is busy washing the bacon right now.

The surface of bacon that has been hanging for a long time is very hard and dirty. It needs to be cleaned with hot water first.

Then put it in the pot and cook for a while, so that the bacon can become soft, it is easier to cut, and after cooking, the taste of the meat will become better.

After the bacon was cooked, Xu Zhuo soaked the rice. According to the experience brought by the braised pork rice skills, soaking the rice in advance when cooking the rice will make the rice taste better.

Then he washed the beans and cut them into small pieces, as well as some diced carrots and mushrooms.

The side dishes of stewed rice are not fixed, and almost any dish can be stuffed in the pot with meat to make stewed rice.This thing is actually similar to the pimple soup in the north, and it is a meal made in a hurry to save time.

For example, during the busy farming season, there is no time to cook and cook, so a pot of stewed rice with bacon is both delicious and can replenish energy, and a bowl of rice wine will make the work more vigorous.

After preparing the side dishes, Xu Zhuo went out to watch a movie for a while. After watching the bacon cook for about 10 minutes, he went back to the kitchen and turned off the fire, and took the bacon out of the pot.

The bacon for stewed rice needs to be cooked for a while, so that it is easy to cook, and the taste of bacon can penetrate into the rice more easily.

If you want to save time, you can also fry the bacon, but what Xu Zhuo cooks is the most traditional bacon stewed rice in the countryside here, and there is no step of frying.

Rinse the bacon, cut into cubes and set aside.

Next, start cooking the rice.

First spread a layer of beans on the bottom of the pot, then spread a layer of bacon, then pour the soaked rice in, and then pour all the side dishes and the remaining bacon into the pot.

Bacon stewed rice does not need any condiments, not even salt, because there is salt in the bacon, and after simmering, the salt in the bacon will be absorbed by the rice.
