The Village Doctress Chapter 175: Teaching Art
Lin Fufu nodded confidently, "I do have new ingredients, but I can't get them out now, and I have to wait for winter."
After seeing a look of disappointment in Lao Liu's eyes, she continued: "But I can teach you a few fresh dishes. The business of Liu Ji Restaurant will crush all the restaurants in the town!"
Since it is all restaurants, it naturally includes Yueke Restaurant.
Lin Fufu's downcast eyes gleamed strangely, shopkeeper Hua, just wait for the business to be snatched away by Liu Ji Restaurant!
"Gospel, are you serious?" After hearing Lin Fufu's words, Lao Liu's expression turned serious. No wonder he couldn't believe it. Fangzi!
Lin Fufu is really willing?
Liu Qin also looked at Lin Fufu in astonishment. Unlike Old Liu, he was still moved. Lin Fufu is really...
Let him say something, he is really loyal and kind!
When Lin Fufu saw that Old Liu didn't believe it, Liu Qin was dumbfounded, smiled slightly, and reached out to take out a folded paper from his purse.
Lao Liu and Liu Qin's eyes were all glued to the piece of paper.
Lin Fufu smiled slightly, spread out the paper, raised his head, and his eyes slowly brushed the faces of the father and son.
"I have written several dishes here on this piece of paper." Lin Fufu said, emphasizing his tone again, "Of course, they are all written in great detail, but I am afraid that Uncle Liu's restaurant cook is only It is not necessarily good to write it on paper and do it according to this.”
Old Liu understood it all at once, stood up immediately, and said excitedly: "Then do you know the gospel? If you do, uncle would like to ask you to teach our chef in the kitchen once! "
Seeing that Lin Fufu didn't agree immediately, he felt anxious, and suddenly he said to Lin Fufu with happiness: "Gospel, don't worry, as long as you are willing to transfer your new dishes to uncle, and teach our elders I'm good at cooking, uncle will give you a big red envelope of five hundred taels of silver."
Five hundred taels of silver is indeed a big deal.
Lin Fufu loves money, and she knows that Lao Liu's big Liu Ji restaurant makes a lot of money, and it's not short of five hundred taels of silver.
Take a step back and say that although the dishes she cooks are improved and modern, they can be regarded as her private dishes, and even if they are sold to Liu Ji, they will be considered cheap for Liu Ji.
That's the friendly price!
Hearing the words, he did not refuse, and smiled lightly: "Uncle Liu, you are welcome."
"Gospel, this is just this dish plus the red envelope you taught the chef. When Uncle Liu uses your dish to boost his business, he will give you a big red envelope!"
This is Lao Liu's kindness. In fact, Lin Fufu didn't expect him to give her a red envelope after spending money on the dishes.
But if you can, why not?
She's not in the habit of being in the habit of being used to others. When a promiscuity fights a mistress, a brother has to settle accounts clearly.
"Then I'll just wait for the day when Liu Ji Restaurant makes a fortune!" Lin Fufu is very confident that as long as she has these dishes, the business of Liu Ji Restaurant will flourish in a certain period of time!
I'm afraid that Lao Liu will be soft when he wants to count the money.
Because this Qingyang Town is not an ordinary town, she later found out that this Qinglian County is the only place in Dawei and Beirong City, and Qingyang Town is the only place leading to the county. Yangzhen, a border town, is much more prosperous than she imagined.
With such a good geographical advantage, many merchants will settle down in Qingyang Town for dinner or something, so the restaurants in Qingyang Town are actually not short of customers, even if the high-quality customers go to the big restaurants.
Now the biggest restaurant in Qingyang Town is Liu Ji He Yue Ke. With her dishes, Liu Ji Restaurant will definitely have a lot of customers this winter!
The more confident Lin Fufu is, the happier Lao Liu and his son will be.
Lin Fufu agreed to go to the big kitchen to teach Liu Ji's chef how to cook those dishes, and Lao Liu and Liu Qin followed excitedly.
When he arrived at the big kitchen, Lao Liu personally introduced Lin Fufu to the chef named Tie. Chef Tie also likes to study. Teach him quickly.
Lin Fufu thought about the merchants who came today and talked about the wine in Yueke Restaurant, Liu raised his eyebrows, looked at Chef Tie and said: "Master Tie, when I came here today, I heard those diners shouting about Yueke Restaurant The wine in the restaurant is good, I think Liu Ji's wine is not as good as that in Yue Ke Restaurant, but our appetizers are better, how about I make appetizers with the master today?"
Hearing the respect in her words, the iron master was very ironic, and hearing the strong confidence in her words, his heart was also full of pride, "Okay, just listen to the girl!"
Lin Fufu nodded with a smile, and said calmly: "Then our first dish today is called Jiuxian Peanut!"
Forgive her, the name Jiuxian Peanut is used, but it is actually the famous modern drunkard Peanut.
But Wei people are superstitious and taboo about ghosts, so she changed the word "ghost" into the word "immortal".
"Oh, what a name!" Lin Fufu reported the name of the dish, including Lao Liu and his son, who nodded in appreciation.
The name of this dish alone is a gimmick again!
A few people looked forward to it.
"Weigh ten catties of dried peanuts first, wash them in warm water, then soak them in warm water, and call me again when the soaking boils." Lin Fufu instructed.
Master Tie gave the cook a wink, and the cook went immediately.
"Let's prepare this material first, and leave it alone." Seeing several people anxiously waiting for her next step, Lin Fufu couldn't help smiling, "Let's make the second appetizer. Jiuxian peanuts are better."
Not waiting for a few people to be happy, she ordered again: "Weigh 20 catties of fresh soybeans, wash them with water, and then cut off the two ends of the beans with scissors. This guy needs a lot of people." /
Fresh soybeans are one of the only few vegetables left in this season. Lin Fufu is not afraid that Liu Ji Restaurant will not have them.
"Then don't you need to peel the corners of the soybeans?" Master Tie asked.
"No need." Lin Fufu shook his head, and Master Tie immediately shouted, "Weigh 20 catties of soybeans by one of us."
Some people went there immediately. Fortunately, there were only six chefs in Liuji Restaurant, so the work was done quickly.
With the joint efforts of several people, even Lao Liu and Liu Qin and his son went up to make it. Lin Fufu saw that everyone was busy, so she also started to make the seasoning.
"Miss Lin, what's so special about this dish?" Master Tie asked expectantly.
"The name of this dish doesn't matter much, let's call it braised edamame." Lin Fufu said, "Although the name is vulgar, it's delicious. Eight out of ten people who love to drink love this dish. Even those who don’t like to drink like to eat, regardless of gender.”
Master Tie repeatedly said yes.
To be honest, if it wasn't for Miss Lin who suddenly came to teach him how to cook these fresh dishes, he wouldn't even dare to think about it.
He looked at Lin Fufu with admiration. This girl is so young, but she complies with the saying that people should not be judged by appearances!
How did he know that Lin Fufu had actually changed his mind, and he had thousands of years of civilized culture in his mind, which of course included cooking skills.
Seeing that everyone had processed the soy beans quickly, she also estimated the amount and prepared the star anise, Chinese prickly ash, cumin, dried **** and shriveled chili peppers.
"Master Iron, now boil half of the iron pot of water, put the seasonings I prepared into the water, then put the washed and cut soybeans directly into the pot, cover the pot and cook." The Gospel said, and specifically warned, "First bring to a high fire, and then simmer on a low fire for half an hour."
Half a quarter is seven and a half minutes. In fact, if it is medium fire, it only needs to simmer for five minutes, but it is difficult to time in ancient times, so Lin Fufu simply stewed it for half an hour on a low heat.
Master Tie immediately agreed, and memorized what Lin Fufu said in his heart. Isn't it necessary to memorize it?
"Miss Lin, do you have any explanation for the ingredients?" Master Tie asked about Lin Fufu's ingredients after memorizing them by heart.
Lin Fufu thought, this master really is a caring person, but she is also guessing, without an exact quantification, but she must never say this.
He said vaguely: "Twenty catties of soybeans should be the same as the amount I prepared today. In the future, the master will make more, so you can estimate it."
When Lin Fufu was doing something, Master Tie's eyes were wide open. He naturally estimated how much Lin Fufu had prepared for the ingredients, and nodded gratefully when he saw that she did not hide her secrets.
"Master, the peanuts have already soaked." At this time, there was a back and forth from the chef.
Soaking hair in warm water is indeed much faster. Lin Fufu knows this, and Master Tie also knows it, so he looked at Lin Fufu and asked respectfully: "What will Miss Lin do next?"
"Peel off the red layer of soaked peanuts." Lin Fufu gave the order directly, and Master Tie immediately ordered people to do it, without any force.
Actually, when making Jiuxian peanuts, it would be more delicious if the peanuts peeled off the red coat can be frozen for a while, but at this time, there is no way. It's a pity that it can't be frozen.
After all the peanut red clothes were peeled off, they were cleaned again, and then poured into the big earthen kang specially built in the big kitchen and put on the kang. Put the sesame oil and peanuts directly into the pan and fry, and use a low heat in the middle."
This process was completed by Master Tie himself. Lin Fufu saw that the peanut kernels had swelled and burst, so he immediately asked Master Tie to fish out all the peanut kernels.
Master Tie followed Lin Fufu's instructions meticulously. Lin Fufu glanced lightly at the Liu family father and son with shining eyes, and couldn't help laughing.
"Okay, now use high heat to quickly heat the oil, pour the peanuts into the pan and fry them again."
Master Tie does things at a glance.
When Lin Fufu saw that the peanuts were fried until golden, he said to Master Tie: "Master, you saw that the peanuts were fried golden, right now, scoop them up and drain the oil."
"Okay!" Smelling a different and rich peanut fragrance, Master Tie was looking forward to this Jiuxian peanut.
"Okay, now change to a large pot, and put two spoonfuls of bottom oil in the bottom of the pot." After Lin Fufu finished speaking, he quickly grabbed two handfuls of dried peppercorns and four handfuls that had been chopped up for later use. Put the dried red chili slices into the pot, stir-fry them yourself, and then said to Master Tie: "In the future, the ingredients will be prepared according to what I put in. After the ingredients are fried, add peanuts and stir-fry. After the aroma is stronger , Watching the pot."
Master Tie nodded repeatedly.
Lin Fufu said again: "Sprinkle some white sugar and salt before starting the pot, then put it aside and wait for the peanuts to cool."
After all, Lin Fufu is a girl, and her wrist strength is not strong. Master Tie did the cooking of the peanuts.
This pot of Jiuxian peanuts is very successful in appearance, golden and bright, with a strong fragrance that attracts mouth water.
"It's so fragrant!" Liu Qin squeezed forward smelling the fragrance, wishing he could get into the still steaming Jiuxian peanuts.
"It's still hot, I'll taste it later." Lin Fufu shook his head looking at his gluttonous look, "Now go try the marinated edamame."
When making Jiuxian peanuts, the stewed edamame has already been cooked, and it should be cold now.
Hearing this, Liu Qin couldn't care less about Jiuxian Peanut, and hurriedly squeezed to the braised edamame again. He was so anxious that he almost pushed his old man, Lao Liu, to the ground.
What hurt him was severely scolded by Lao Liu.
Liu Qin smiled and ignored Lao Liu, already stretched out his claws to peel off the edamame and hurriedly stuffed it into his mouth.
Everyone in the big kitchen looked at him nervously.
Liu Qin closed his eyes as soon as he ate his mouth. His expression was too exaggerated, and everyone in the big kitchen except Lin Fufu looked worried, fearing that this food would not taste good, and their busy work would be wasted.
Especially Lao Liu, he has already changed the bodhisattvas and gods in the sky one by one...
Only Lin Fufu stood aside confidently, his eyes slightly squinted.
"Ah! What a great time, what a great time!" Liu Qin swallowed, opened his eyes suddenly, his tongue was so loud when he spoke, he rushed towards his father, and hugged his fat father Body, very excited, "Dad, dad, really, it's so delicious, our business this year will turn around because of this! You have to try it..."
Liu Qin talked to his father in a wordy manner, and his father pushed him away quickly, and went to try it himself.
Liu Qin ran up to Lin Fufu and bowed deeply to her.
Lin Fufu accepted this gift from him, and asked with a smile: "Is the red seal of five hundred taels of silver from your father okay?"
Liu Qin immediately said: "Look at what you said, it's not a deal, it's a great deal!" Zhaolin Fufu gestured and stretched out his index finger, "I'll tell you the Gospel, just rely on this, this dish, my father Feng Hong of five hundred taels of silver is not wronged!"
As long as you know.
Lin Fufu pursed his lips and smiled slightly.
Although there are marinated edamame as pioneers, after they tasted the deliciousness of Jiuxian peanuts, these people lost their composure. One of them took a bowl at random, scooped it up hard, and didn't care whether to leave some for the guests , a few people don't want to drink, just eat it with their hands.
Including the iron master who is serious about learning art.
"Ahem..." Lin Fufu raised his hands and clenched them into fists, coughed twice, cleared his throat and reminded them: "Today is a good opportunity, we should save some for the guests, right? "
A few people ignored her.
Lin Fufu looked at this scene, and it was too exaggerated. As for this?
Of course she doesn't know the appeal of modern food to these ancient people who have never seen or eaten it.
"I said, do you want to learn other dishes?" Lin Fufu had no choice but to use his trump card.
It’s okay for others to say that, Master Tie immediately stopped stuffing peanuts into his mouth, wiped his oily hands to his side in embarrassment, puffed his cheeks and said: "Learn, learn, let Miss Lin laughed!"
Even if he has the level of a chef, he has never eaten such delicious food, but these two delicacies are only made with the most common ingredients.
The next thing Lin Fufu taught Master Tie was cold cucumbers. In Hulu Village, there are still a small amount of autumn cucumbers at this time.
And autumn cucumbers are more tender and crisp than those picked in summer, and they are one of the best ingredients for cold dishes.
This is also a dish specially selected by Lin Fufu based on the ingredients.
This cold dish is also very simple. Wash the cucumber and cut it into rectangular strips, then marinate it with salt water, pick it up when the water is forced out, cut out finely minced garlic, chopped green onion, and pick up a handful of Jiuxian Crush the peanuts with a rolling pin, pour them all into the cucumber and mix well, then pour a spoonful of broth, then add an appropriate amount of sesame oil, and the salt is ready.
Crisp and refreshing, with a lingering fragrance, it goes well with wine.
The last one is simpler, which is tofu mixed with preserved eggs.
Lin Fufu chooses preserved eggs to make.
Remove the shell of preserved eggs, cut them into cubes, blanch a piece of tender tofu in boiling water, pick them up and cut them into thin rectangular pieces, spread the cut preserved eggs on the cut tender tofu .
Then sprinkle finely chopped green onions, pour the prepared seasoning evenly on top, and finally drizzle sesame oil.
This dish is also very refreshing, the only thing to pay attention to is the preparation of the seasoning.
Because there is no monosodium glutamate and chicken essence in Dawei, Lin Fufu added delicious broth, old vinegar, soy sauce and a little old wine when making seasonings.
Because preserved eggs have a fishy smell, it is better to put old wine to suppress the smell.
She gave all of these to Master Tie of Liuji Restaurant.
Finally, besides the two dishes of stewed edamame and Jiuxian peanuts, Lin Fufu watched Master Tie make cold cucumber and tofu with preserved egg again.
Although the taste of Master Tie's cooking is slightly different from that of hers, it can still be regarded as a master.
Not only Master Tie was excited, but Old Liu was the least excited, but he wanted to say what he had to say, and it was inconvenient for him to say it in front of Lin Fufu.
This is to tell his own chef and assistant chefs.
The help cooks are actually apprentices of Master Tie. With Lin Fufu teaching cooking skills, Master Tie and his apprentices are completely tied to Liu Ji Restaurant.
Lin Fufu also knew, so she did Liu Ji a big favor and completely **** Master Tie and his party.
After all, a shrewd businessman like Lao Liu will definitely let the master and apprentice sign the contract.
Because of this, when Lin Fufu taught cooking, these helpers were not ordered to avoid, but they all learned together, and they counted as much as they could learn.
The reaction of Liu Ji Restaurant was also very fast. Based on today's results, the four new dishes were quickly launched.
The group of customers who were still disgusted with the single menu of Liu Ji Restaurant had to check out and leave, but when they heard that Liu Ji Restaurant just launched a new dish today, they stayed one by one.
Eat and eat, old customers don't leave, new customers keep coming, the old Liu father and son who have moved to the third floor are so happy that they don't know what to do.
Old Liu shouted happily and asked his wife to bring out the good tea he treasured to entertain Lin Fufu.
Lin Fufu smiled slightly and waved his hand to stop him, "Uncle Liu, the success of today's new dishes has also exceeded my expectations. Here, Gospel congratulates Uncle Liu again, but I have one condition, and I ask Uncle Liu to do it!"
