President's Legendary Master

"What is this?" They arrived at a place where things were being blown up through the window at the door.

This snack bar is not too big, and it is not facing the street. It is opened in the row of shops behind the street. The shops behind this are also snack bars, but they are not facing the street. Maybe they are not as eye-catching as the shops facing the street. arrive.

But the business is good, some people eat in it, and some take it away.

This snack is a kind of light yellow fried food, and there is something brushed up, and it is served in a small bamboo basket, which looks exquisite and delicious.

"This shredded ginger chop is also called ginger juice chop, ginger crisp chop, and honey chop. It is not only a traditional snack in Beijing, but also a variety of Beijing-style tea dishes. Tea dishes are ceremonial foods of the Manchu and Hui nationalities. .Because in the Manchu Qing period, when Manchu people hosted banquets, they used to use tea and tea food first, and then cold meat, hot dishes, sweets, soup, etc., must be served in order. Hui people do not drink alcohol, but for For etiquette, tea is often used instead of wine, so tea and vegetables are one of the essential things." Master Xu said: "Ginger shredded fork, as you can tell from its name, has fresh ginger in its raw materials, so it is delicious when eaten. It gets its name from the distinct fresh ginger taste.”

Because of the unique smell, Qiu Chunshan could smell it when he smelled it.

Master Xu also talked about the characteristics of this snack.

According to Mr. Zhang Cixi, the author of "Tianqiao Snacks", "There is a store in the old Tianqiao that specializes in selling small fried food, such as twisted pork chops that are not deep-fried, packed in straw paper, and with a red label. It is a cattail bag for New Year gifts. Children's playthings." There are poems praised this kind of small fried food. The predecessors said: "The future is made entirely by craftsmanship, and the specific face is used to coax children. The brocade box cattail bag is well decorated, and it is exquisite and small to see a genius."

In the past, those who sold this kind of fried food on Tianqiao would shout: "Buy a bag, give me a bag, Jiangxi Lalai, Laqin pepper. The uncle will fall down after eating it, and the official will fall down. The lame lame has a big waist. Cannabis, Broken pork chops, assorted flowers, and a big pack of deep-fried pork chops." Hearing this, the child liked to buy it.

It’s just that no one is going around the streets to sell this shredded ginger chop fork anymore, they are all sold at fixed stalls, fried with good edible oil, so no one is shouting for it.

Only the old Beijing middle school people would know such snacks and shouting.

Now people are shouting slogans such as "green and healthy" and "lead-free frying", and there are no stalls on the street.

"It's rare to see these things now, but this one is okay. You can see that the things used here are still very fresh."

As for this shredded ginger fork, it is not so well-known among Beijing and Chinese snacks. Because of its unique taste, some people like to eat it, while others don't.

Old master Xu even introduced this snack to them: "To say that this shredded ginger fork is very special. The fresh ginger is peeled and chopped into fine porridge. Add a certain proportion of plain porridge to the flour. Put them together in a basin and wash them with cold water. Knead the dough. Press the dough into thin slices, then sprinkle fine starch on the thin slices, fold them together, cut them into two-centimeter-wide and five-centimeter-long fork strips with a knife, stack the two small slices together, and cut three slices along the middle. Knife, spread out into a single piece and turn them together, and fry them in warm oil. The fried row fork is honeyed. The method of honey is to use fresh ginger to peel and cut into thin strips, boil the ginger with water, and then remove the ginger Shredded, put in white sugar, put caramel and sweet-scented osmanthus after boiling, continue to boil, then move to a small fire, put the fried pork chops in ginger juice, boil the sweet-scented osmanthus and maltose for honey. The pork chops after honey turn into light yellow, with Crispy, sweet, and fragrant, it tastes like ginger when eaten. There is also a kind of salty pork chop, made of flour, soda and salt, and fried in oil. The method is the same as that of shredded ginger pork chop, but the Honey, has the characteristics of crisp, crisp, and slightly salty taste. People who love to drink often use salty pork ribs for drinking and dishes. "Fried Pai Cha", whether "Pai Cha" is fried well or not directly affects the flavor of this food. Generally, it takes two years to fry it well, so this thing is very expensive to learn. At that time, I couldn’t afford to eat oil, let alone frying things. Now that life is better, this food is taught to the apprentices by the masters again, and the apprentices have to eat all the ingredients for training, so they can’t be wasted.”

"It's the smell!" Qiu Chunshan said, "I won't admit my mistake!"

"Because of the unique flavor of shredded ginger, crispy and pleasant, it is inevitable that people can't stop eating more and more. Because it is a fried food, it is easy to get angry, so try not to eat too much in a short time. It can cause a fire." Master Xu also offered some advice: "However, you can drink a little herbal tea after eating to reduce the fire."

He saw that Qiu Chunshan's lips were red and swollen, and thought that the young man didn't know how to restrain himself, so he could make it after eating one thing.

Old master Xu is worthy of being a native of Beijing, he is eloquent, and he can tell you everything clearly.

"Does this thing smell like that?" Daomiao asked Qiu Chunshan.

"Yes!" Qiu Chunshan said, "I didn't mention its taste because I haven't tasted it."

But the smell of ginger juice, with honey, is too familiar.

He didn't like ginger since he was a child. The ginger in the stew at home was either chopped so that he couldn't see it, or it was cut into large pieces. After cooking, his mother would pick out the ginger.

Not to mention the combination of ginger and honey.

"Try it." Over there, Dugu Haoyan had already bought two servings, each of them ate one, and it felt okay, but everyone didn't care too much about eating, and they all looked at Qiu Chunshan.

It made the owner of the snack bar a little confused, where did he come from?So many people bought two servings and watched one of the young people eat.

"It's this taste, it's this taste!" After taking a bite, Qiu Chunshan was sure: "There's no need for a second bite, I don't like this."

The taste is always weird, but Mrs. Qiu likes it very much.

After each of them shared a slice, Mrs. Qiu went to buy another slice.

"That's it." Daomiao took the wrapping paper into the store, Dugu Haoyan followed him in, the others didn't, but stood outside, the store is not big, it's not for eating, it's easy to give People have a feeling of "finding fault".

However, there was a shop next door that sold another snack, donkey rolling, and everyone went there to buy a pack of donkey rolling.

Besides Dugu Haoyan, Qiu Chunshan, Qiu Tianwang and his son went in with Daomiao.

Daomiao went directly to the boss.

This shop is not big, the owner is the father of the Fried Pork Master at the door, the waiter is the daughter-in-law and younger sister of the Fried Pork Master, and the back chef hired an aunt to take care of it.

Seeing this group of people coming in and looking for him directly, the boss was startled: "What's the matter? Seniors, are you not eating well?"

Daomiao smiled: "That's not true, I have something to ask the boss later."

"Oh, you said." The boss subconsciously relaxed.

Probably because Daomiao's smile was very clean, and he didn't look like he was here to find fault and make trouble.

"Excuse me, do you also sell this snack during Chinese New Year here?" Daomiao pointed to the desk calendar: "After the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month, Xiaonian, sacrifice stove or something, does anyone buy it back as an offering? This is not bad food."

"Our place is open all year round. The snack street, there are no Chinese people here, and there are also foreign tourists. However, there are indeed people here who buy things and go back to worship their ancestors. Alas, they are all old calendars." The boss said: " Not many people bought it."

"How many are there?" Qiu Tianwang asked anxiously.

"Uh, this gentleman, although there are not many, there are thousands of people, right?" The boss said with a black line on his face, "There are at least dozens of people buying a day, and it is absolutely no problem for me to deliver a thousand snacks a day."

A snack can earn a few yuan, and he earns thousands of yuan a day. After removing labor and various expenses, there is still more than 1000 yuan in pure profit.

You can save 4 to [-] yuan a month.

"That much?" Qiu Tianwang obviously raised his voice.

"Is that too much?" The boss's face became darker: "There are more Chinese New Year, and there are more tourist seasons."

There are not many people, how does he do business?

Didn't this guy really come here to mess things up?

"This won't work." Dugu Haoyan said, "Even if the boss helps us, we can't help it. There are so many guests, it's impossible for us to ask each one clearly."

Qiu Chunshan looked at Daomiao: "Can't Mr. Zhang do the math?"

"I want to calculate." Daomiao spread his hands: "The key is that you can deduce the past life, and you can calculate the present life. If the two are connected, you have to give me a bowl of your blood..."

As soon as I said this, the boss quit: "What are you doing?"

Is this someone with problematic thinking?

"It's nothing, let's go, thank you boss." Dugu Haoyan pulled Daomiao and the others out: "Go back to the car and talk."

A group of people cheered into the car, and old master Xu drove back.

Daomiao continued: "I still need your hair, nails, and your date of birth. You can't go outside. You have to go to your home to do the calculation. It's very dangerous to spy on other people's past and present lives without authorization."

"So troublesome?" Qiu Chunshan frowned.

"Dangerous things cannot be done." Dugu Haoyan was the first to object: "As I said, you can do whatever you want, but the premise is that you are not in any danger."

Qiu Chunshan and his father also blushed: "We didn't mean that."

What's the use of knowing what I was doing in my previous life?

He is only 20 years old in this life, just started, and there are many variables.

There is no need for Mr. Zhang Daomiao to take risks.

Besides, Zhang Daomiao is not the only one who wants to take risks, he also has to contribute something.

Perhaps it was because of Daomiao's miraculous methods that the hair that was cut before was thrown directly at the barber shop, and then the barber shop dumped it into the trash can, and finally buried it in the garbage treatment plant, turning it into nutrients for the land... I didn't think much of that. like!

But now, he is very concerned about his hair, nails and so on.

It feels like I won't be able to see them being thrown in the trash in the future.

"Yeah." Daomiao nodded: "But we didn't get nothing. We'll have breakfast tomorrow."

Everyone nodded, but the donkey rolled, and these people had nothing to eat in the car.

After returning to the villa, they went to wash and rest one after another. Daomiao woke up after two hours of sleep.

Run for an hour on the treadmill in the indoor gym.

Dugu Haoyan brought him a cup of hot milk, Daomiao held the cup and drank it, then asked Dugu Haoyan: "Look at me, have I grown taller?"
