Food starts with noodles

This form of handle meat is very suitable for water transportation, because during water transportation, the time when the ship docks at the shore is not fixed, and the time for departure is also not fixed, and sometimes the time is very short, so you can eat meat when you get off the ship.

Therefore, restaurants that sell meat will put the meat in a crock pot or pot to simmer slowly, and you can eat it directly when there are guests.

This way of eating meat quickly became popular, and it spread along the canal valley. Jining, Xuzhou and other places have such a dish.

In addition, when it was spread to Jining, because there were few iron pots at that time, everyone was more used to stewing meat in crock pots, so the handle meat here was also called bèng meat.

The so-called 甏 refers to a large earthen basin or urn.

And 甏肉 is meat made in a large earthen pot. The taste and texture of this kind of meat are almost exactly the same as that of handle meat, but there are only a few differences in the process of spreading and localizing.

In Gu Quanyun's words, the sweet and salty taste of zucchini meat is more prominent and clear, while the meat of bamboo shoots is relatively milder.

Except for the surprise of the seasoning, everything else was the same.

Up to now, even the method is the same. According to the traditional method, you can use any container to make the meat, but you can only use the earthen pot to make the meat.

But today’s boiled meat is all cooked in iron pots, and only put into earthen pots when it’s sold.

Because it was broadcasting live at the moment, Xu Zhuo didn't ask about the conflict between Gu Quanyun and the Ge family, and Gu Quanyun never mentioned it. The three of them ate and chatted like eating and broadcasting. Occasionally, fans nearby came to say hello, and Gu Quanyun was free of charge. up.

He will not miss such a good publicity opportunity.

Avoiding these orders won't make a lot of money, but it can have a profound impact on Xu Zhuo and Ji Mingyu's fandom.

After eating and drinking enough, today's live broadcast has almost come to an end.

The three of them ate Bazirou and other signature dishes in the store, and drank a bottle of white wine, and the host and guest enjoyed themselves.

Of course, the enjoyment of guests and hosts here is viewed from Xu Zhuo's point of view, but he guessed that Gu Quanyun hadn't had enough of the drink, because the waiter had muttered something in a low voice when taking the wine.

"That's not enough for you to drink alone."

When I have a chance later, I will introduce Cui Yong and Jiang Dabiao to get to know him, and see who is the best drinker from the Central Plains, Shandong, and Northeast.

After finishing the wine in the glass, Ji Mingyu downloaded the broadcast.

After eating a meal for more than an hour, the store is full of people at this moment, and there are many people waiting in line at the door.

This further shows that the family's business is booming.

Gu Quanyun sent the two of them outside, and said to Xu Zhuo, "Brother, I have joined the Lu Cuisine Chefs Alliance you are planning to create. Not only me, but also the chefs in my shop and all the relatives and friends in the circle. You all collapse, Tao Liang and I will notify you."

During the meal just now, Xu Zhuo showed Gu Quanyun the next itinerary, in order to prevent such a situation where he entered the store as an acquaintance again, making it seem like he had rehearsed in advance.

As a result, Gu Quanyun was so excited that he took over the rest of the work.

After all, he has been in the catering industry in the capital for so many years, and he can talk to the owners of those restaurants more or less, so there is no need for Xu Zhuo to run back and forth.

That's pretty good, Ji Mingyu said with a smile: "Then no matter what, I have to give Brother Quan Yun a vice-chairman Dangdang."

Gu Quanyun waved his hand and said: "I don't want to be that stuff, I just have one request, if there is nothing to do, put eye drops on the members of the Ge family, they cheated on my father, I have never been able to swallow this breath."

Chapter 1448 Shooting a video with Tao Liang

Seeing that Gu Quanyun took the initiative to speak up, Xu Zhuo asked curiously, "What do you mean? Is there any conflict between Quan Yun and the Ge family?"

Gu Quanyun sighed and said: "It's nothing, it's just that my dad tricked him when he first came to the capital to open a restaurant. He originally said that he would hire my dad to be the chef at a Geji restaurant with a high salary, and he asked my dad to transfer the store out quickly." .

As a result, within half a month of working there, they said my dad was stealing in the back kitchen and fired my dad.

At that time, the small shop that I worked so hard to build had been sold out at a low price, and I lost my job. My father was so angry that he almost jumped into the river and committed suicide. Fortunately, there were a few fellow villagers in Fengtai who asked my father to come to Fengtai to develop.

Here, he started to set up a stall with the money in his hand, and it took two years to set up a stall before reopening the store. "

Ji Mingyu asked in surprise, "Why? Why did they do this?"

Gu Quanyun smiled wryly: "One is because of the method of cooking meat, and the other is because the small shop opened by my father was in the alley next to Geji Restaurant.

Probably they thought they would steal Ge Ji's business, anyway, I made a note of this account, as long as there is an opportunity to step on them, I will never miss it. "

The reason why Gu Quanyun was so warm and polite to Xu Zhuo was because Xu Zhuo was the first person who turned hard on the Ge family in these years.

In fact, Xu Zhuo wasn't being stubborn, it was the Ge family who took the initiative to provoke him.

But no matter what, the Ge family suffered a big loss, not only the listing plan was forced to run aground, even the mainstay executive chef was poached away by Xu Zhuo.

A few days ago, Geji Restaurant lost another group of chefs. Although it will not collapse, it will have a great impact.

At least for those regular customers, it is really difficult to eat the old taste of the past.

Once this kind of restaurant does not have regular patrons, if it only relies on fame to attract tourists, it will not be long before it will become the second Quanjude.

Not even as good as Quanjude.

Quanjude has gained a good reputation, as long as there are tourists, there will be no shortage of customers coming to the door, and many customers know that they will be slaughtered, but they still step into the gate of Quanjude with the idea of ​​not eating roast duck.

And the Ge family...

Why do you compete with Quanju Derby?

In the next few days, Xu Zhuo didn't go to Tandian to shoot the live broadcast again. After all, Gu Quanyun was contracted for this matter, and Xu Zhuo also intended to let Gu Quanyun take up a position in the association, so that when he turned back to Ge's family, he could jump out and scold the two. sentence.

So Xu Zhuo didn't bother with the matter of wooing the chef and the restaurant.

However, Ji Mingyu has been doing live broadcasts. After Gu Quanyun talks about the store, he will notify Ji Mingyu, and then Ji Mingyu will hold up his mobile phone and go live to visit the store, and taste the signature dishes of the other store by the way.

Ji Mingyu actually hoped that Xu Zhuo would go with him, but Xu Zhuo had more important things to do, that is, the skills that he had devoted himself to learning had already cooled down, and Xu Zhuo was going to find Tao Liang to make a video of making rock sugar elbows. Learn the skills of a dish.

And his tuition fee is to help Tao Liang improve his reputation.

As for Ji Mingyu, Xu Zhuo arranged for Li Hao, who had just arrived in the capital, to help.

With Li Hao around, the quality of the live broadcast will not decrease, and may even improve. After all, compared to Xu Zhuo, Li Hao eats more and eats better.

Li Hao, who can eat, and Ji Mingyu, who can speak, the live broadcast effect of the two partners is better than Xu Zhuo's, and the influence is not much worse.

Li Hao just arrived here, and he doesn't know much about all aspects of the capital. If he takes over the company rashly at this moment, there may be troubles, so let him stay with Ji Mingyu for a few days, so that he can get a little understanding of the capital, and then take over the company. Much easier.

After the arrangements here, Xu Zhuo rented a good shooting location with Yu Keke and the camera team from the provincial capital.

This venue was originally a photography studio, and the lighting lines inside were all in good condition. At the same time, there was a black background room specially used for close-up shooting, which could make the close-up shooting even taller.

Everyone entered this studio, arranged to adjust the habit of shooting videos first, and installed a set of cooking utensils and silent hoods by the way.

After everything was settled, Xu Zhuo invited Tao Liang to come over and shoot a video.

Xu Zhuo really wanted to learn about the rock candy elbow dish, and he was also very curious, why the soft and rotten elbow can maintain its complete shape?

What is the method used?

Xu Zhuo has been thinking about this for the past few days, so now that he can shoot the video, he couldn't wait to invite Tao Liang over.

For Xu Zhuo's request, Tao Liang was naturally overjoyed.

Everyone knows that shooting videos with Xu Zhuo can not only bring economic benefits to him, but most importantly, it can greatly improve his own reputation.

In the past, every time Tao Liang saw Xu Zhuo taking a chef from the provincial capital to make a video together, he was a little jealous, because only the chef knew how much the fame of making a video with Xu Zhuo would be.

Take Xie Hailong, who has made several videos with Xu Zhuo, who used to know this Xie Hailong who spoke with a strong male accent, but now, on short video platforms and Weibo, Xie Hailong is also rarely seen. fame.

I even attended several opening ceremonies of culinary technical secondary schools.

So as soon as he received the call, Tao Liang put down his work and rushed over.

When I came here, I didn't forget to bring a few elbows. I brought my own ingredients, so as to save Xu Zhuo from not buying good enough ingredients, and also to save Xu Zhuo some money.

After all, this is to increase his reputation, so Xu Zhuo can't spend it anymore.

After arriving at the studio dedicated to shooting videos, the two exchanged pleasantries for a while and chatted about the process of shooting videos, which gave Tao Liang a general understanding of the next steps.

At the same time, let's chat and let Tao Liang get used to the environment here.

After all, when cooking later, several cameramen would move their cameras back and forth, and even huddled beside Tao Liang. If he didn't get used to it, Xu Zhuo was worried that Tao Liang would be nervous.

After chatting for a while, they became familiar with each other, and Tao Liang got used to the fact that there was someone playing with the camera next to him.

Then, it is to prepare ingredients, change clothes, and...

make up.

"Makeup? It's just cooking. As for putting on makeup like a girl?"

Tao Liang didn't understand very much, he was already in his forties, and he wasn't a young man like Xu Zhuo who relied on his appearance to win, what kind of makeup should he wear?

Xu Zhuo said with a smile: "Brother, you need to change your mentality, just like your restaurant, why is such delicious food not well-known in the capital? It's because you don't know how to package yourself.

Of course, the packaging here is not for you to over-glamorize yourself, but to make up for your current shortcomings.

Only in this way will your fame go further.Good for your store too. "

As soon as he heard that it was good, Tao Liang didn't resist: "Okay, then just don't make me look like the bridegroom. If my wife sees this, she might think that I'm going to do something wrong to her. "

When Xu Zhuo heard it, he was immediately happy.

It seems that this old man is also a strict wife.

Chapter 1449

After changing clothes and makeup, you can start making.

At first, Tao Liang was a little uncomfortable, not only because of the new chef's uniform and make-up, but also because of the microphone clipped on his collar. When he spoke, he always lowered his head unconsciously, for fear that his voice would not be recorded.

Xu Zhuo chatted with him for a while, and after Tao Liang had fully adjusted his state, he started making.

The first is to arrange the ingredients and ingredients to be used in small plates.

These ingredients mainly include several pork knuckles, a small pot of rock sugar, a small amount of salt, dark soy sauce, etc., and spices such as onion, ginger, pepper, star anise, bay leaf, cinnamon, etc. It is very simple.

But among these ingredients, Xu Zhuo saw a roll of cotton thread.

"Brother Liang, what is this cotton thread for?"

Tao Liang took the coil of cotton thread and tossed it in his hand and said, "This is for binding elbows. The elbows made this way are more complete and sell better."

After speaking, he took a small basin, took some water in it, put salt in it, stirred it, and put the cotton thread in his hand into the salt water.

"Before using the cotton thread, it should be soaked in salt water, which not only has the effect of disinfection and sterilization, but also improves the toughness of the cotton thread and makes the cotton thread stronger."

After the cotton thread was soaked in water, the shooting officially started.

After the camera was turned on, Xu Zhuo first introduced Tao Liang to the camera.

As the first Lu cuisine chef he recruited, coupled with the good reputation of Shandong flavor, Xu Zhuo unconsciously went into more detail when he introduced it.

As a chef who has been in the capital for more than 20 years, Tao Liang has nothing to say about his eloquence. Therefore, after a little discomfort at the beginning, Tao Liang quickly entered the state.

After introducing Tao Liang, Tao Liang began to introduce the rock sugar elbow to the camera.

Bingtang elbow is a very popular delicacy across the country, from the three northeastern provinces to the North China Plain, from the Yangtze River Basin to the Lingnan area, all have this dish.

However, although they are all one dish, the method is somewhat different.

Some are stewed directly, some are blanched and then fried before boiling, and even steamed. There are many ways.

In addition, in terms of form, there are boneless, non-boneless, boneless and plastic, and even boneless and cut into large pieces.

There are many ways to do it, and there are so many tastes.

Although this dish is called rock sugar elbow, rock sugar is also used in the ingredients, but in terms of specific methods, the amount and method of rock sugar are very different.

For example, some rock sugar elbows are just fried with rock sugar, while some rock sugar elbows are almost stewed with rock sugar.

"There are many ways to make this dish, and what I'm teaching you today is just one of them. I can't guarantee that the rock candy elbow made this way is the most authentic, but I can guarantee that the taste is absolutely the best."

After Tao Liang introduced it, he started to make it.

The first is to burn the skin of the elbow.

There are a lot of pores and sweat glands on the surface of pork, which not only contains impurities, but also has peculiar smell, so burning it before eating can not only remove the peculiar smell, but also eliminate the psychological barrier.

Anyway, for people with cleanliness and obsessive-compulsive disorder, burning it like this will make them feel more at ease when eating.

Burning the elbow is very simple, just spray it with a portable spray gun directly, don’t burn it too much, the surface of the pork skin turns yellow and slightly black, so that the pork skin can be fully burned, and some pig hairs that have been cleaned can also be burnt. .

After boiling, put it in warm water to wash it, and then you can make it by blanching.
