Sesame Green Bean Garlic

Huo Zian walked around the tables and saw nothing wrong - except that the two asked him for chopsticks, and Mrs. Cheng glued her dentures to the octopus.

He walked back to the kitchen and continued with the next dish.White asparagus is slow-cooked for six hours on low heat to keep them crisp and tender, then served with white miso whipped foam and toasted pine nuts.While You Liangchen was clearing the dishes outside, Huo Zian melted butter and fried Australian scallops.The heat of this dish is very important. The outer layer of the scallops should be fried until it is burnt and fragrant, and it has a taste of fire, while the inside should be kept fresh and tender to retain the breath of sea water.Only when the fire and water are balanced can the wonderful taste of the scallop be stimulated.

You Liangchen packed in piles of plates.Huo Zian glanced at him, seeing that he wasn't tired, he was relieved.Although Yu Liangchen is a killer in the kitchen, fortunately, he is tall, strong and energetic, and can adapt to the protracted battle in the kitchen.

Huo Zian is on the fried scallop miso asparagus, garnished with roasted cumin and red pepper crisps.While carefully wiping the rim of the pot, he said: "It's important to arrange the plate well, but it's not that the more colors the better. People's sense of beauty will change with the seasons. It's winter now, and nature is mainly brownish yellow, so in The design should also follow this tone.”

He fed the crispy bread to Yu Liangchen's mouth, "Try?" Yu Liangchen held two stacks of plates, opened his mouth and took a bite, his lips touched Huo Zian's finger, Huo Zian couldn't help shrinking his hand, feeling trapped Something like a light bite.He thought to himself, Yu Liangchen's lips are so warm. He is a chef, and his fingers are very sensitive to touch. From the touch of his fingers, he can associate the taste of ingredients; so he couldn't help looking at Yu Liangchen's mouth, and found this man for the first time. The lips are so red, I have never eaten this kind of food, I don't know what it will taste like...

Looking at his appearance, Yu Liangchen wiped his lips, "What's wrong?"

Huo Zian came back to his senses and panicked for a moment, as if he accidentally ate something that shouldn't be eaten.With a serious face, he said, "Okay, take it out."

You Liangchen didn't talk too much, so he did as he did.

Huo Zian was distracted, put his finger in his mouth and licked it, um, it didn't taste good.He quickly settled down and concentrated on preparing the next dish.

Then comes the real challenge.The third dish is his famous "Xiao Long Bao", which made him famous and caused a lot of controversy.

The broth boiled with pork bones, scallops, and shrimp brains is added with calcium lactate liquid, and then immersed in alginate, a soft and bright film will wrap the broth.This ball looks like a soft-boiled egg yolk, but when the teeth are lightly touched, the membrane is broken, and the rich juice inside will fill the mouth, just like the steamed bun slipped into the mouth, leaving no trace in an instant, leaving only a mouthful delicious.

Xiaolongbao is served on a black bone china spoon, and is delivered delicately to the five tables in the hall.

In addition to Youjia, Cheng's family and Kuizi's family, there were two other families.The sisters of the Yin family are twins. They are 24 or [-] years old. They have small faces and big eyes. They are dexterous. One talkative like a clockwork, is a cute and soft girl. The frozen persimmons are obviously watery inside, but cold outside.They also have completely different tastes in food, one likes sweet and the other spicy, but they seem to have the same taste in men, since they met Zi An, they decided that all the food in this restaurant must be delicious, So whenever Zi'an showed up, they would eat extra hard.

The other table was not so easy to deal with.The He family lives next door to Baozipu. The couple are about 60 years old. The old man stammered and procrastinated, but he ate like a storm. Every time a dish was served, they buried their heads in sweeping it. Eyes wide open, waiting for the next dish.Huo Zian was a little apprehensive, not quite sure whether they liked it or not, so he bent down and asked, "Uncle He, what do you think of this dish?" He Wenbo looked straight at him: "This egg...the egg yolk...is a little ... a bit fishy."

Zi'an was about to explain that this is not "egg yolk", when the old lady answered, "That's right, it must be broken, yo, I haven't eaten eggs with this taste before." She said with a look of surprise He poured half a glass of water from the glass bottle and poured it into his mouth in one gulp.The next second, the old lady coughed, and the water sprayed out, "Yo, what kind of water is this, it's so spicy!"

Zian hurriedly asked You Liangchen to change the sparkling mineral water and pour her a glass of ordinary water.After thinking about it, Yu Liangchen poured a cup of hot tea for the old lady from the thermos that Aunt Kong carried with her.The old lady drank hot tea, and then she calmed down, and said again and again: "What kind of moth is this!" Old man He felt a little impolite, and the scene was not good, so he said in a louder voice: "Yes... Interesting, interesting. "

You Dacheng hurriedly said: "No, this dish is very interesting. I ate it in my mouth, slipped it, and it's gone! Let me tell you, Lao He, when we were young, we didn't have anything to eat. We didn't care about stealing an egg. Boil it on top and swallow it whole. You can savor it all day long, and the next morning, you can still taste it in your mouth. It’s the same taste just now. My mouth is empty and full. It’s so funny. of."

"Interesting, yes... Interesting!" Old man He knows the rhythm of flattery, but he can't do it well, so he can say as few words as he can.

Huo Zi felt relieved: They were applauding, but they didn't like this dish.The people at the five tables all had inexplicable expressions.

At this time, Uncle Ma from the bun shop came in with his hands behind his back, and nodded to Zian in greeting.Huo Zian was very surprised. He invited Uncle Ma to dinner, but he knew that his family was Hui people, and he didn't like him as a Shanghai native cooking western food, so he didn't expect him to show up at all.

When he came, he walked in leisurely, as if walking in an alley to digest food, and exchanged greetings from table to table.Old man Cheng smiled and said, "You are too late. The chef just served the buns. You are an expert, but you have definitely never seen a bun that grows like this. The skin is thinner than the fog outside."

Uncle Ma's small eyes widened when he heard this, and he became very curious, "Thinner than fog?" But he said in disdain immediately: "Then what else do you want to eat, you can eat the northwest wind!" The old men burst into laughter.

Huo Zian poured water for Uncle Ma himself, and went back to the back kitchen.Thinking of the laughter of the old men, he felt uncomfortable.Leaning on the edge of the stainless steel countertop, the fatigue brought about by the hard work of the day and night spread quietly in his body, bringing out the hard work and suffering of this period of time.There are so many things he has to deal with, such as various practical problems of opening a store, adapting to life in the north, but these are all secondary. The most important thing is the most fundamental problem that he has to solve at the beginning-he needs to be recognized!

He is working hard to create works with the imprint of "Huo Zian". He doesn't mind that they don't like "Xiaolongbao". What makes him feel cold is that they completely rejected the necessity of this creation. Bao" is unnecessary, because it is the same as "eat northwest wind"!

Zian turned on the faucet and let the running water wash over the stainless steel pool, just like his rushing thoughts were constantly colliding with the cold metal.In the trendy restaurants in Shanghai, he can still get a certain range of understanding through the media, food critics and diners who love new things; The rich and colorful life of the traditional Peiping people explained why he didn't make a meal of meat buns honestly?

The sound of running water stopped abruptly.Huo Zian woke up suddenly, raised his head, and met You Liangchen's eyes.You Liangchen turned off the faucet and asked, "Aren't you going to do the next one?"

Looking at his emotionless expression, Huo Zian knew that his next sentence would be: "If you don't do it, then I will withdraw."

Don't think about it!Huo Zian forced himself to pull himself together, Yu Liangchen's casual and passive resistance always aroused his fighting spirit. "Of course, the main course hasn't been served yet."

You Liangchen let out a "hmm" without further ado. According to Huo Zian's original instructions, put the lamb chops cooked at low temperature for eight minutes, and put them on the charcoal stove to roast them until they were burnt. The aroma of the meat filled the whole place kitchen.

Huo Zi calmed down.
