Food starts with noodles

When the soup in the pot became thicker and the duck was completely rotten, Xu Zhuo began to season the fire-heeled fairy duck.

In fact, the seasoning is very simple, just add an appropriate amount of salt, and leave out other seasonings.

Because this dish is not only fragrant, but also fresh enough.

As long as the salt is added, the taste becomes perfect. If seasoning is added, it will not only appear redundant, but also suppress the umami taste of the fire heel and the aroma of fat duck.

After seasoning, Xu Zhuo simmered for another 5 minutes before turning off the heat and putting the casserole on a plate.

This dish is served in a whole pot, and there is no need to pour out the soup and duck meat.

However, for the sake of beauty, some work needs to be done on the presentation.

To be exact... a deboned fire heel was sliced ​​thickly and placed on top of the duck.

The bright red fire heel is paired with the tender yellow duck, which complements the milky white soup, which is indescribably beautiful.

Sniffing, the umami smell of fire heel and the smell of fat duck go straight into your nostrils.

It made people salivate involuntarily.

Really worthy of the name of the gods!

"It's so fragrant! So fresh! So tempting!"

Just as Xu Zhuo was about to praise himself, Dai Zhenting's voice suddenly came from behind him.

The old man leaned over in a hurry, seeing the fire-heeled fairy duck in the casserole, his hands trembled with excitement.

"You made this? This taste, this pyrotechnics, this combination...even better than my few incompetent apprentices!"

After finishing speaking, he reached out and slapped himself on top of the casserole, taking a deep breath as if intoxicated.

Obviously, he was very satisfied with Xu Zhuo's Fire Heel Immortal Duck.

"This is a famous dish in our Zhejiang cuisine. Where did you learn it? Did your grandfather teach you? He used to think about Zhejiang cuisine when he was cooking at the state banquet, and complained that Zhejiang cuisine was not delicious and tasteless. It turns out that I have studied it in private..."

Xu Zhuo didn't speak, and let him make up his mind to his heart's content.

But as soon as Dai Zhenting said that he was excited, there was a retort from behind him.

"The way of making the soup is obviously our Fujian cuisine technique, but it just happens to use two ingredients, fire heel and duck. How can it become Zhejiang cuisine?"

Chapter 709 Surprise for Xu Zhuo

Tian Chengrun walked in step by step.

Apparently, they wanted to snatch this fire-heeled fairy duck.

But this ability to speak nonsense...

It's really similar to being an official.

Dai Zhenting was not happy: "Old Tian, ​​it's been a while, and the children don't know you. Look at you... it's not that bad. It's just a fairy duck with fire heels. It's not like you haven't eaten it before."

Tian Chengrun smiled, patted Xu Zhuo's shoulder and said, "This duck is really well cooked. It has the same taste as your grandpa Dai cooked in the kitchen after the state banquet. It's indescribably delicious, and it's hard to taste that kind of duck now." .”

After speaking, he glanced at Dai Zhenting.

If it weren't for Xu Jimin saying that he was thick-skinned, Tian Chengrun really wanted to grab this dish.

Finally, the two old men took a step back.

Think of this dish as a combination of Zhejiang cuisine and Fujian cuisine.

The reason why I said this was mainly because I was worried that Xu Zhuo would make things difficult for him.

He cooked seven of the eight major cuisines, but he didn't cook Hokkien cuisine, so Xu Zhuo and Tian Chengrun would be a little embarrassed if they didn't try this duck dish.

When Dai Zhenting came out with the plate, he couldn't help complaining about Tian Chengrun.

"I asked you to put on airs yesterday, so that the children didn't know you, and now you're running over here, what's an official doing all day long?"

Tian Chengrun coughed twice: "Can't you keep your voice down? Come on, come on, I'll take it, is this the head office?"

The casserole was quite heavy, so Dai Zhenting gave it to him.

As a result, when Tian Chengrun entered the room, he opened his mouth and said, "Xiaozhuo is really capable. Look at the new dishes he made using Fujian cuisine. The taste is really amazing..."

Dai Zhenting behind him really wanted to kick him.

This old thing really puts gold on his face!

Tian Chengrun put the casserole on the table, and then carefully lifted the lid. When the scent of the fire-heeled fairy duck wafted out, he looked at the few people present and asked a question with a smile.

"Isn't it like when we tasted Lao Dai's craftsmanship for the first time in the back kitchen of the state banquet?"

Yu Peiyong nodded: "Indeed, it really looks like it."

"It's not like it, it's exactly the same!"

Yuan Desheng, who was eating spicy dried fish, sniffed the smell wafting in the room, and was full of praise for Xu Zhuo's craftsmanship.

Now only Sichuan cuisine and Shandong cuisine are left.

Wei Junming got up and said with a smile: "After tasting your dishes, it's time for you to taste our Sichuan and Shandong dishes. I'll go and see what Xiaozhuo has prepared. You can just stay here, Master. I'll do the errands." .”

After speaking, he got up and went out.

Dai Zhenting said to the old man: "Old Xu, don't sit still, come and taste your grandson's handicraft."

The old man smiled lightly: "Is there anything to eat, I'm tired of eating at home every day."

Although he was very interested in some of Xu Zhuo's dishes, he still had to maintain his composure in front of outsiders.

So just...

Acted very dismissive.

But looking at the dishes, he still felt a little distressed.

Although these dishes may seem simple, each one is easy.

I came here at five o'clock in the morning to work, and the work is not over yet.

I don't know what the kid is doing.

If you want to learn how to cook with them, you can just open your mouth and talk, and it takes so much trouble?

As long as I say a word, whoever of these people dare not agree, see if I don't block his door and scold him so that he dare not go out!

Seeing the happy faces of several people, the old man's unhappiness became even stronger.

He patted the table and said: "You guys, don't just patronize eating, our Xiaozhuo's restaurant is about to open, and then everyone has to go to support him. If you don't go, don't blame me for scolding you in the group!"

Now that a group of old men have tasted the delicacies made by Xu Zhuo, and everyone's face is quite bright, they all love Xu Zhuo very much in their hearts.

So when they heard the old man's request, they all hurriedly agreed.

Even if the old man didn't say anything, they still wanted to get in touch with Xu Zhuo more.

Such a sensible child, no matter what, he has to pass on some of his craft to him.

Yu Peiyong said: "Since everyone is going, why don't you inform other people, and inform all our old buddies back then, not to mention those who have passed away, and those who are still alive, try to go, take advantage of this Opportunities gather."

"With so many people going, will it scare Xiaozhuo?"

Dai Zhenting was a little worried.

What's the matter with going to a bunch of bad old men when a restaurant opens?

Those who didn’t know thought it was the pharmacy queuing up to pick up the eggs.

Tian Chengrun waved his hand, and soon thought of a reason that everyone thought was good.

"Just say that Sifang Restaurant is the designated internship unit of Yangzhou University. Is this reason valid? But I think we should not tell Xiao Zhuo first. Surprises, we have to wait until the end to announce."

Everyone nodded, thinking that this was a good reason.

After the matter was finalized, everyone continued to eat and drink.

All kinds of steamed stuffed buns on the first floor are served with dishes cooked by Xu Zhuo.

Don't say it, it's really good.

The old man took the opportunity to taste Xu Zhuo's dishes.

The Jiusi Soup is just for beginners, the poached chicken is so-so, the Wenzheng mountain bamboo shoots are delicious, and the most amazing dish is the fire-heeled fairy duck.

It reminded the old man of his various experiences in the back kitchen of the state banquet.

It was really young back then, and everyone was in high spirits.

But no one thought that he would struggle in this circle for the rest of his life.

Several people chatted about the past while eating.

Basically, they all have grievances with the old man, but after more than 40 years, these grievances have already passed away.

Twenty minutes later, Xu Zhuo and Wei Junming walked in with two dishes, completely unaware that the group of old men had prepared a surprise.

What Wei Junming held in his hands were Kung Pao chicken and fried beans.

What Xu Zhuo served was fried double crisp and coir raincoat cucumber.

Once the four dishes are placed on the table, the breakfast is ready.

The dishes include meat and vegetables, cold cuts, hot soups, and stews.

It's quite rich.

Everyone praised Xu Zhuo while eating, which made Xu Zhuo very happy.

But every time he wanted to bring the topic up to the opening of the new store, the old men tacitly changed the subject.

I'm worried that I've missed something, so it's better to talk about something else.

After dinner, the group went to Yangzhou University to sign the appointment letter of visiting professor.

The signing scene was lively and everyone was very excited.

Even the old man who always regards honor as dung is a little incoherent when he speaks.

No way, this may not be a big deal for other industries, but for the culinary industry, it has epoch-making significance.

When Zheng Guangyao signed his name on the engagement letter, Xu Zhuo also heard the notification that the task was completed.

"Ding! The host has completed the random task [Re-emerge], and special rewards are D-level famous Cantonese dishes: [Steamed Pork Ribs in Black Bean Sauce], [Boiled Shrimp], congratulations to the host!"

--------

Thank you for your concern. I made an appointment with the doctor for the operation. I thought it would be enough for [-] to [-] yuan, but it would cost at least [-] yuan.And my medical insurance didn't take effect until after New Year's Day, so in order to save money, I decided to wait until New Year's Day, and after New Year's Day, I found a way to make a referral, and then went directly to Zhengzhou for hospitalization.Go home tomorrow, try to write as much as possible before New Year's Day, and repay everyone's support.

Bow again and thank you all!

Chapter 710 Taking Photos of the Elderly

Xu Zhuo was a little surprised by these two dishes.

However, this unexpected mood was quickly replaced by a huge surprise.

I really didn't expect that the system would be so generous and gave two middle-level dishes that Sifang Restaurant urgently needed.

Medium dishes are the foundation of a restaurant.

The restaurant's dishes, low-end dishes can only be embellished, and high-end dishes are just for fame.

Only the middle-end dishes are the main profit of the restaurant.

The boiled prawns and steamed pork ribs in black bean sauce are among the middle-end dishes, which can be described as killing both the north and the south. Both southerners and northerners like to eat them, and their acceptance is very high.

Especially the base shrimp, men, women and children like to eat.

Some people are even very addicted to this way of peeling off the shrimp shells by hand, and then dipping them in the sauce.

In addition, peeling the shrimp is also a way to show affection.
