Food starts with noodles

From childhood to adulthood, although the old man was strict, he really had nothing to say to Xu Zhuo.

After turning off the system panel, Xu Zhuo continued to knead the dough.

The old man looked at it for a while, then walked outside.

"You keep busy, I'll go back first."

The old man needs to hold up at the restaurant. Since there is nothing wrong here, he plans to go back.

Now the old man is very relieved of Xu Zhuo.

He is very professional in making soup and kneading noodles. He can fully support the noodle shop.

But in my heart, I felt a little regretful.

Why doesn't this kid learn how to make his own hand-rolled noodles, but what kind of stewed noodles.

The old man was somewhat disappointed.

It's like, I did everything possible to teach you electric welding, and you ended up building a fortune by building walls.

Xu Zhuo naturally wouldn't let the old man leave, he put down his work and ran out of the kitchen quickly, stopping the old man.

"Grandpa, can you try my braised noodles before leaving?"

"Since I was a child, I have been eating the food you cook, but I haven't cooked it for you myself."

"There are no outsiders today, so give me a chance. I will still make hand-rolled noodles in the future, but the difficulty is a bit high. I will make stewed noodles first."

Xu Zhuo naturally knew where the old man's unhappiness was.

Just like Li Sifu said, the old man had been making hand-rolled noodles all his life, but he threw it away and started making stewed noodles.

No one will be happy.

Xu Zhuo's words made the old man laugh: "That's fine, then I'll wait in the store, you do it well, I got up a little early today, so sit down and rest for a while."

As a result, as soon as the old man sat down, Li Sifu saw that the store door was open, and walked in with tea.

Seeing Xu Jimin, Li Sifu shrank his neck subconsciously.

This kid Xu Zhuo is not really complaining, is he?

Li Sifu was not afraid of anyone in the whole street, except Xu Jimin.

This old man has a stubborn temper and admits death, but his cooking is very delicious.

It seems that today is a lucky day.

"Hey, the old man is here. Your Xu Zhuo is really talented. The stewed noodles made us neighbors are convinced."

Xu Jimin smiled and chatted with Li Sifu.

But not long after, Li Sifu dragged Xu Jimin away.

"Your stool is too hard. Go to my place. There is 500 yuan a catty of oolong tea and a reclining chair. You old guy can just lie down and rest for a while."

When Xu Zhuo returned to the back kitchen, he could still hear what Li Sifu said when he took the old man out.

"You haven't come back for almost a year, so many things happened on our street, I'm afraid you don't even know about it..."

This propaganda committee member can't keep his mouth shut.

Of course, with him pestering the old man, Xu Zhuo didn't have to worry about the old man sneaking away.

Xu Zhuo is bound to get that D-level signature dish.

At noon, Xu Zhuo came forward and invited several old neighbors over.

The business in the store is not good, the old man is well aware of it, but he believes that with Xu Zhuo's current craftsmanship, it is a certainty that Sifang Restaurant will be brought back to life.

The lunch dishes are cooked by the old man.

Whether he is making hand-rolled noodles or stir-fried vegetables, he is well-known throughout Linping City.

Of course, the main reason is that his temper is too famous.

The time was too short, Xu Zhuo didn't buy many good ingredients from the vegetable market today.

The old man carefully selected and cooked six dishes.

Stir-fried mutton with scallions, fried eggplant with beans, fried prawns in oil, stir-fried vegetable sum, hot kidney, pork liver with pickled peppers.

These are the old man's specialty dishes.

After one end was served, several neighbors ate and chatted with the old man.

Li Sifu was very happy.

It was really worth it to eat Xu Jimin's fried dishes again after a year.

He has already made up his mind to help Xu Zhuo promote more and more in the future to make the store's business better.

When the business is good, the old man will come over, and he will be lucky again.

The old man was born in Lu cuisine, and later incorporated some Sichuan cuisine styles. Now he has his own school. After opening a restaurant in the provincial capital, his craftsmanship has conquered many people, and he has served as the chairman of the Culinary Association for three consecutive terms.

When they were talking, Xu Zhuo, a junior, sat in the corner and couldn't get in the conversation, he just kept picking up food.

Wow!This pork liver is so tender.

Wow!This lamb is so fresh.

Wow!This prawn is really fragrant.

Every dish made Xu Zhuo want to cry.

It was not easy. After a whole year, he finally had the dishes cooked by the old man himself.

Now eating the dishes made by the old man, Xu Zhuo began to be moved by the matter of inheriting the old man's craftsmanship.

When they were about to drink, Xu Zhuo got up to make stewed noodles.

When the first bowl came out, Li Sifu hurriedly brought it to the old man.

"Grandpa, we have all tasted Xu Zhuo's cooking skills, but you haven't tasted the noodles made by your grandson, so hurry up and eat it while it's hot, and evaluate it. We old men will say it's delicious, so you tell me, How delicious it is."

The moment has finally come.

Xu Zhuo didn't dare to listen here, so he went to the back and continued making stewed noodles.

When he came out with noodles again, the old man had already finished commenting.

At the moment, he is bowing his head and munching on the noodles, with a very pleased expression on his face.

Could it be... passed?

Xu Zhuo put down the bowl and ran to the back kitchen, and clicked on the system panel.

"Task Progress: Completed."

"Grandpa is very satisfied with the host, please make persistent efforts to become the successor of Xu family cuisine as soon as possible."

This made Xu Zhuo very puzzled.

What do you mean?

The old man hasn't trained me as a successor yet?

Are there other tests that fail?

After Xu Zhuo finished cooking the noodles, the old man wiped his mouth and spoke.

"The stewed noodles are very good, very authentic, even surpassing the level of many stewed noodle restaurants in the provincial capital, but your lack of experience in cooking noodles has lowered the standard of this bowl of noodles. But you can have this level at a young age , I'm really happy."

Next to him, Li Sifu pulled Xu Zhuo: "Your grandfather praised you a lot just now, but he said that you can make noodles, but you can't do knife skills. If you want to inherit the Xu family's cuisine, you need to practice a lot. After all, your family relies on cooking. Instead of making noodles."

After his explanation, Xu Zhuo finally understood why the old man didn't train him as his successor.

It turned out that the knife skills were not good enough.

But it's okay, this can be practiced.

After eating and drinking, Li Sifu took the old man to drink tea at the opposite teahouse and continued to chat.

Xu Zhuo cleaned up the cutlery on the table and began to inquire about the rewards he got for the mission.

Click on the task reward, and a circular turntable will appear immediately, with various dishes marked on it.

Boneless pig's trotters, five-spice roasted chicken, sauced beef, braised chicken feet, spicy lamb's trotters, braised pigtails, spicy duck head...

Damn, can I not choose?

want all...

Chapter 009 Spicy Lamb's Hoof

Although these dishes are bad street food, as long as they are cooked properly, there will definitely be no shortage of diners.

Even these dishes can attract a large number of loyal customers.

He really wanted to have it all, but the system clearly had no room for negotiation.

After praying secretly, Xu Zhuo clicked the start button, and the turntable immediately started to rotate.

Xu Zhuo prayed that the pointer would stay on the sauced beef.

Among these dishes, his favorite is the sauced beef.

Although this thing looks very ordinary, but the way of doing it is extremely elegant.

Even the Xujia restaurant in the provincial capital has not figured out the most authentic way of sauced beef.

In the end, the pointer didn't give Xu Zhuo any face at all, and stopped on the spicy goat's hoof.

"Congratulations to the host for getting the method of making spicy sheep's feet."

Xu Zhuo felt something different in his mind.

He is very clear about all the steps and ingredients of spicy lamb's feet.

Xu Zhuo smacked his lips, feeling a little disappointed.

However, this emotion was immediately washed away by surprise.

Spicy goat's feet!

This is a dish that even grandpa has never touched.

He actually let himself meet him.

If it wasn't for the fear that the old man's heart would not be able to take it, Xu Zhuo really wanted to pull him over now and let him take a good look at it.

But think about it.

Sometimes there are too many surprises and it becomes a thriller.

Let's talk about it when we meet a good goat's foot. In the current situation, even if Xu Zhuo wants to make it, he can't buy the ingredients that meet the requirements.

Yes, the more high-end dishes, the higher the requirements for ingredients.

Although the spicy lamb knuckle is a D-level dish, because it is a signature dish, the ingredients must not be compromised.

The sheep's hooves must be those of prairie sheep, because only running on the grassland and mountains every day will the sheep's hoofs be tight, and the sheep's hoofs made can meet the requirements.

In addition, various ingredients also have certain requirements.

There are three kinds of peppers used to make sheep's feet.

Shaanxi thread chili peppers add flavor.

Henan's new generation, adding color.

In addition, fresh millet is also needed to increase the spiciness.

Xu Zhuo needs to get all these ingredients together before he can start making sheep's trotters.

It will take at least a week before the store can launch the spicy sheep trotters.

But just take advantage of this time to get the ingredients together.

For chili or something, you can find the seasoning supplier in the provincial capital to coordinate.
