Food starts with noodles

When it's cold, you have to eat something warm, Li Hao took Xu Zhuo's suggestion very seriously.

But Yu Keke is determined to make an egg tart, so that everyone can taste her craft.

At the same time, I also specially emphasized that the recipe of this egg tart is learned from Douyin. It is super simple, super easy, and super delicious.

And Sun Panpan also seems to be obsessed with baking, and now he is busy with Yu Keke in the kitchen, and won't ask Xu Zhuo to help.

In her words, baking is the release of a woman's charm and a thermos for a woman's spirit, and men are all on the side.

So the current situation is that two women who don't understand cooking skills or home appliances at all are cooking and eating in the kitchen according to the tutorial.

Xu Zhuo, who is proficient in cooking, and Li Hao, who knows a little about cooking, were driven to the living room.

The younger brother of the family can be seen.

But the two of them were also happy to relax, lying on the sofa, watching "Pirates of the Caribbean" on the big TV, and eating those Shaqima nougat and snowflake crisps made by the old man.

The cheap Captain Jack paired with delicious and sweet snacks is inexplicably a good match.

"I heard from Lao Meng that you have a cooking competition next weekend and you want to make peony jelly dishes?"

Li Hao never said anything about food, and he wasn't interested in competitions, but peony jelly...

He was really curious about this famous Central Plains dish that sells white radish at the price of bird's nest.

I'm not too greedy, I just want to know if the taste is really as mysterious as it is said on the Internet, the white radish tastes like bird's nest.

"It's all hung out of soup, radishes and so on, as long as the knife is good, there is no skill, the key is to hang the soup, this is the most important thing."

It usually takes more than half a day to make soup for this high-end dish, Xu Zhuo estimated that this link will be saved on the day of the competition.

After all, no one wants to spend most of the day watching Diaotang.

At that time, we still have to play by ear. Although we have the skills in hand, we can't be careless.

After all, the position of chief supervisor is still very useful to Xu Zhuo now, and it cannot be snatched away by others.

In addition, Xu Zhuo also told Chen Guifang to ask her to stop those happy bosses and cut off their stores for a few days.

Do you really think that I put so much effort into building a platform for you to pick peaches?

Just as he was thinking about this, Sun Panpan suddenly came over with a baking tray, and six dark round cakes were neatly arranged in the baking tray.

As soon as it was placed on the tea table, Xu Zhuo smelled a sticky smell.

Is this the egg tart method that the two learned from Douyin?

This should be called black tart, right?

Xu Zhuo racked his brains, but couldn't think of how to praise the two of them.

As for Li Hao, it was even more embarrassing. He originally wanted to pick it up and try to taste it.

As a result, the egg tart turned into black ash as soon as the hand was hard, exposing the tin foil on the base.

Tsk, directly carbonized...

Chapter 892 The price of growth

"Don't take pictures, hurry up and eat quickly, I have been thinking about eating shabu-shabu since I was in school."

In the private room of Sifang Restaurant, Yu Keke eagerly urged everyone to eat quickly, without mentioning the overturned egg tart at all.

When the copper pot was boiling, Xu Zhuo poured a whole plate of sheep tail oil into it.

When eating shabu-shabu, you must first shabu some pure fat from the tail of the sheep. It doesn't matter if you eat it or not, the main reason is to make the clear soup have the fragrance of mutton.

In this way, no matter what ingredients are cooked next, the fragrance of the mutton will be full.

Of course, if you are not afraid of greasy, this kind of sheep tail oil is really worth a try.

Pick up a pair of cooked sheep tail oil with chopsticks, dip it in sesame paste, put it into your mouth, the sheep tail oil almost melts in your mouth, and then add the aroma of sesame paste...

This scent is really amazing, it immediately whets the appetite.

I wasn't very hungry at first, but after eating sheep tail oil, the feeling of hunger became obvious.

After a plate of mutton tail oil went down, Xu Zhuo picked up a plate of mutton heads and lowered it into the copper pot.

On the other side, Meng Liwei, who had heard the news, also picked up a plate of fat and thin mutton, and poured it into the copper pot.

Such a whole plate is poured into the pot, not to show off that they are rich, but mainly because Li Hao and Meng Liwei are there, and if there is less, it is really not enough for them.

Eating shabu-shabu in cold weather can keep you warm without too many dishes.

Xu Zhuo's couple and Li Hao's couple wisely didn't mention the matter of making egg tarts at home.

Meng Liwei, on the other hand, didn't understand the situation at all. While dipping the mutton in the pan into his mouth with sesame sauce, he looked at Yu Keke and asked, "Didn't you talk about making egg tarts in the group? Where are the egg tarts?"

Yu Keke coughed lightly and kicked Xu Zhuo under the table.

Xu Zhuo hurriedly said, "After we finished eating, we didn't make a few. Li Hao still rushed to eat, so we just tasted it."

Unexpectedly, Meng Liwei was very interested. He probably thought that Yu Ke could do a good job, and he should be fine, so he came up with the idea of ​​making egg tarts live.

"It tastes just like that. It's not as good as the ones sold in the store. After all, it's the first time I'm making it, so I can't ask too much."

Li Hao commented a few words with regret on his face, his acting skills are superb.

But his regret really comes from the bottom of his heart, because he really didn't taste it, which is a pity.

Meng Liwei was about to ask about the details of making egg tarts, but Xu Zhuo changed the topic: "Old Meng, can you do a live broadcast of the league game next week?"

Meng Liwei came here today to ask about this matter. That competition was a gathering of famous teachers, and everyone made peony jelly dishes. Thinking about this scene, it will attract many fans.

"I'm going to talk to Grandpa Zhao about turning that competition into a feast to promote Central Plains cuisine, so that people from all over the country and even the world can experience the charm of Central Plains cuisine."

Those judges are all acquaintances with the people in the next competition, but Xu Zhuo has a normal relationship with them.

Not to mention the old man, half of the judges have been scolded by him.

So if you want the judges to be impartial, you have to make this game more grand, not only by inviting various media, but also by live broadcasting.

At that time, whoever wants to play black-box operations will have to weigh whether his skin is thick enough, because if he is not careful, he may be scolded by netizens as a hot search.

The matter of the live broadcast was handed over to Meng Liwei, who was in charge of arranging the people. No matter how many fans the anchor had, he would set up the long guns and short guns first.

With more equipment for shooting, the people present will naturally become serious.

This matter was not difficult for Lao Meng. Just as he was about to ask about the egg tarts, Li Hao pulled him to try to eat mutton.

Within 15 minutes, see who eats the most mutton.

This competition was immediately approved by Meng Liwei, and then the two fools began to compete.

In order to win, the two of them would grab the meat as soon as it was put into the pot before it changed color. Boss Xu, who hadn't eaten enough, put down his chopsticks helplessly and ordered the kitchen to bring a bowl of stewed noodles.

He couldn't grab the two of them, and Xu Zhuo didn't dare to eat this kind of meat, so it was safer to eat stewed noodles.

In the next two days, Yu Keke didn't enter the kitchen again, so he probably got hit hard this time.

But before returning to Linping City, the girl said that she would try making a cake next time.

Because she watched some tutorials on making cakes, and it seems that she also...

Super easy!

"The things are in the kitchen. You can practice whenever you want, but next time it's better not to talk to Moments in the group. In order to cover it up for you, I dare not meet Lao Meng in the past two days."

Boss Xu told the truth, but in the end it inspired Yu Keke's fighting spirit.

"Just wait, I will definitely make the cake, and I won't give it to you even if you beg!"

After the little girl finished speaking, she sat in the car and drove away with Sun Panpan and Li Hao.

Next, it's time to prepare for the general meeting.

Zhao Jinma originally planned to put the venue in Sifang Restaurant, but in order to avoid suspicion, Xu Zhuo changed it to a hotel auditorium.

Moreover, it was also decided that this conference would use the takeaway buffet to advertise for Lu Xiaobing, and see if he could attract some more cooperative businesses for him.

As for your own people, you have to take care of them.

As for the arrangement of the venue, Zhao Jinma is in charge of the arrangement, so Xu Zhuo doesn't have to worry about it.

As for the matters in the store, Feng Weiguo and the old man were in charge of everything, so Xu Zhuo didn't have to worry about it at all.

What he has to do now is to practice the peony jelly dish at home, and strive to compare with all the competitors.

In order to encourage Xu Zhuo, Yu Peiyong also rushed over from Yangzhou.

Everyone thought that Boss Xu was working hard at home, practicing knife skills day and night, but in fact...

He has been playing games at home, among which he ate chicken thirteen times, landed in a box fifteen times, and all the others followed suit.

I haven't played games for a long time, and I'm a little raw. Maybe this is the price of growth.

As for knives...

Xu Zhuo actually tried it before. He took a radish and cut out paper-like radish slices with a light stroke, which were so thin and transparent.

Under this kind of knife skills, what else is there to practice?Go straight to the game.

After staying at home and playing games for five days, Xu Zhuo changed into a slightly more formal outfit, combed his hair to look like an adult, and prepared to attend the membership meeting.

Well, this is also the long-awaited pretense conference that Boss Xu has been waiting for.

Although he didn't want to pretend to be aggressive, he had to pretend today, because he wanted to deter those colleagues who had their own ulterior motives.

The fresher and refined the pretense, the better the deterrent effect.

When I drove to Sifang Restaurant, several old people were waiting.

Yu Peiyong looked at Xu Zhuo with some distress and said, "I don't know how to rest for a while? Why are there dark circles under my eyes?"

Boss Xu laughed dryly: "In order to win, it doesn't matter if you work hard. Let's go now, I have to get acquainted with the stove over there..."

Chapter 893 It's time to show the real technology

When Xu Zhuo and several old people came to the auditorium where the conference was held, many people were already present.

Reporters from various media are busy adjusting the equipment, and people from the federation are also busy adjusting the lighting and sound of the venue.

Xu Zhuo saw that there were many separate stoves beside the rostrum, and there was also a workbench attached, which was very similar to the teaching stoves of the Culinary Institute of Yangzhou University.

The supplies were sponsored by a culinary school and had the culinary school's name on it.

Obviously, when they learned that there was going to be a live broadcast, everyone wanted to catch the heat.

Not far from the stove, there is a pile of white radishes that will be used today.

There are also several freezers, which should be the ingredients for making peony jelly.

Feng Weiguo walked over and took a look at the radishes, and said to Xu Zhuo, "They are all large radishes that grow in sandy land. They are well-proportioned and well-hydrated. They should be very useful."

Yu Peiyong frowned slightly: "If there is enough water, the soaking time will have to be longer, and the spicy and bitter taste of the radish must be soaked out."

Xu Zhuo nodded with a serious expression, and he also realized this.

The soaking time of radish is directly related to the cut shreds, the thicker the shreds, the longer the soaking time.

But the game time is limited, at best only two hours, so in order to save time, the radish has to be shredded very finely.

After all, to make peony jelly dishes, even if you don’t mention the steps of hanging the soup, you still have to shred the side dishes, blanch them, arrange them on the plate, steam them twice, and season the broth.

If all the time is wasted on soaking shredded radish, it will affect the subsequent steps and operations, and then affect the final effect of the dish.

Xu Zhuo flexed his wrists, it was time to perform real skills.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the meeting was held on time.

Because there was a live broadcast, everyone dressed very formally. Jiang Dabiao specially went to bake some oil, and told Meng Liwei to show him more shots during the live broadcast.

It's the same as Guo Xingwang looking for a rich woman.

As the president of the federation, Zhao Jinma first thanked Xu Zhuo for providing this platform on behalf of all members, and then announced a series of rules and regulations of the federation.
