Siheyuan: Started in 1950, third-level cook

Mr. Liu is not short of money, and the first thing he cares about is how delicious the braised meat is.

But other people’s pockets are not as full as Mr. Liu’s!

The price of braised meat is 80 cents per serving, which is really not cheap. If you go to the vegetable market, you can buy more than a pound of pork belly.

But the aroma of the braised meat was so tempting that since I was already here, I might as well grit my teeth and bear it.

"Boss, give me a portion of this braised meat. Leave the money here."

"Give me one too, the aroma is just amazing, so fragrant!"

"Boss, please hurry up, we can't wait!"

At this time, almost every customer surrounding the stall ordered a portion of braised meat, as they all wanted to taste what the meat tasted like.

The aroma is so strong that it even brings out the glutton in my stomach.

Chen Jun heard this and said to the guests with a smile: "Okay, wait a moment, the stewed meat needs to cool down before it can be cut."

After saying that, Chen Jun opened the lid of the pot, fished out the stewed meat from the tin bucket, drained it on the wall of the bucket, and then placed it on the chopping board.

The meat is still very hot now and you can't cut it without letting it cool down for a while.

Good guy!

After the meat was taken out, the aroma in the air became even stronger.

"Brother, I want to try this braised meat first. I'm so greedy!" Lin Yao stared at the braised meat and felt like her saliva was going to flow down in the next second.

It smelled so good that Lin Yao couldn't help it.

Chen Jun thought about it, carefully glanced at the customers gathered in front of the stall, smiled and used a kitchen knife to cut off the small piece of meat in the corner.

"Find a pair of chopsticks and taste the saltiness."

Lin Yao nodded quickly, found a pair of chopsticks and put the braised meat into her mouth.

Um! ! !

The first thing Lin Yao thought of after eating the braised meat was that the price was too low, and even if it was only one dollar, there would definitely be people who would eat it.

"Hey, hey, hey, little boss, why are you eating by yourselves?"

"That's right, we've already paid you, why don't you hurry up!"

"Come on, give me the kitchen knife and I'll do the cutting."

It was obvious that several customers were getting impatient waiting. Who could stand just smelling the meat but not being able to taste it?

Lin Yao also knew that her greed just now had caused a little trouble, so she quickly put down her chopsticks and invited the guests to take their seats, and also served tea and water and some cold dishes.

But these guests all gathered around the chopping board and refused to leave, fearing that their portion of braised meat would be snatched away by others.

Seeing this, Chen Jun touched the stewed meat and felt that the temperature had dropped.

So he found a clean plate and started slicing the meat little by little.

Slicing braised meat is a technical job that requires uniform thickness. Each slice must be cut into a thickness of two millimeters so that it tastes the best when eaten.

Moreover, the meat slices of this thickness stacked on the plate seem to be quite filling.

If the meat is cut too thick, it will not only affect the taste, but also increase the cost of stewing the meat.

With Chen Jun's knife skills as a third-level cook, ensuring the thickness of the slices is naturally a piece of cake.

I saw him holding the knife in his right hand, pressing his index finger and thumb on both sides of the blade, slicing the braised meat very steadily.

Under the gaze of many guests, the braised meat was cut into even slices and placed on the plate to form a beautiful circle.

After slicing the pork belly, Chen Jun cut some pig tongue, pig liver and pig heart and placed them in the middle of the plate.

Use a spoon to scoop a spoonful of soup from the tin bucket and pour it evenly. Finally, sprinkle some minced garlic and chopped green onion to enhance the taste of the braised meat.

A portion of braised meat costing 80 cents is ready.

Seeing this, Lin Yao quickly brought the plate of braised meat to Mr. Liu's table.

This old man helped to save a seat today, and he is also a long-term member of the stall, so he deserves to have the first plate.

Grandpa Liu looked at the dish of braised meat carefully. The texture of the meat was clear and beautiful, and the meat looked crystal clear. The slices were connected and overlapped together, and it was embellished with minced garlic and chopped green onions. Grandpa Liu was very satisfied.

"Well, not bad, not bad. The plating skills alone are not inferior to those of big restaurants."

Upon hearing this, the guests who were still waiting for the stewed meat all looked over at the old man.

Even the guests who didn't know Mr. Liu thought he was an expert in food.

The braised meat smells delicious and looks even more delicious.

After Mr. Liu commented on the appearance of the braised meat, he picked up a piece of braised meat with chopsticks. The braised meat was covered with soup and was put into his mouth under the gaze of everyone.

Ah!

Master Liu chewed it carefully and immediately felt a fragrant taste in his mouth.

It has the aroma of meat and sauce, a moderate salty and sweet taste, and a hint of fresh sweetness from chopped green onions.

The more you chew it, the more delicious it becomes!

After savoring it carefully for a while, Master Liu was willing to swallow the braised meat.

“Delicious, so delicious!”

The guests who were still waiting just looked at Master Liu enjoying the delicious food alone, swallowing their saliva.

No, who is this old man?

Why does he look so much like Thomas?

Some first-time guests secretly complained in their hearts.

They couldn't stand it anymore, the boss was too slow in serving the food!

"Boss, hurry up. Believe it or I will starve to death right in front of your stall."

"Yes, we are about to starve to death, please speed up."

Under the urging of everyone, Chen Jun couldn't help but feel more pressure and sliced ​​the meat faster.

The kitchen knife kept flying up and down, almost leaving an afterimage.

But the effect was surprisingly good, and plates of cut braised meat were served on the table.

Suddenly, the stall became more lively.

"Oh my god, this is stewed meat. It's so delicious."

"Brother, give me a bite. When mine is ready, I'll give you two dollars, okay?"

"No, no, I can't even eat enough of it myself, it's too delicious, it's really too delicious, 80 cents a portion is really worth it!"

"Boss, give me another portion. I'm not full!"

"Wow, man, what kind of family do you have? You want to eat all-you-can-eat braised meat? Please save some for us. We have been waiting for a long time."

"No, no, I have to eat my fill before I leave today. One plate is not enough!"

Lin Yao is also very busy now, pouring tea, serving dishes, and carrying plates.

These customers who come to eat braised meat are really horrible. They eat the 80-cent dish as soon as they are told to, and even ask for another serving after they are done.

This is only 80 cents per serving!

At this price, you can eat meat dishes in a big restaurant. I didn’t expect they were willing to spend so much.

However, the more the guests were willing to spend, the happier Lin Yao became.

She didn't even dare to think about how much money she could make after closing the stall today.

Anyway, you can make a fortune!

Thinking of this, Lin Yao worked even harder and served small cold dishes to every guest at the table.

Spicy cabbage and pickled radish are also very popular. Some customers would show off some cold dishes while waiting for the braised meat.

In a short while, all the meat was sliced ​​up.

Chen Jun scooped out all the remaining meat in the bucket and placed it on a large iron plate to cool. During this time, he wiped his hands and walked in front of the guests.

"Everyone, today is the first time that our stall sells braised meat. If there are any shortcomings, I hope you can give us more suggestions so that we can correct them."
