Chapter 254: Home-Brewed Soy Sauce [Asking for a Monthly Pass]

Cao's mother couldn't believe it: "It's really my baby's master and mother, why do you want to give us money?"

Xu Zhuo shook his head: "I don't know very well, it's the bonus he used to pay when he went to work, you just take the flowers, don't think about it so much." ”

Cao's mother was just about to accept it, Cao Kun came over with two bowls of bacon stew, and after seeing the money, he hurriedly said, "Xu Zhuo, what are you doing......

As he spoke, he put the bowl on the table and was about to take the money from his mother and return it to Xu Zhuo, but Xu Zhuo stopped him.

He glanced at Cao Kun and whispered, "Let's go back and let your mother collect the money first." ”

Cao's mother was still excited at this time, constantly chattering about the good of Wei Junming's family, and didn't pay attention to the movements of the two.

Cao Kun insisted for a while and gave up.

My divorce has made my parents sad for many days, and the family has not been very well-off, so the 20,000 yuan should be regarded as my filial piety, and I can return my salary to Xu Zhuo.

He was very glad that he had met a good boss like Xu Zhuo, and he took out 20,000 yuan before he went to work, and the average boss really didn't have this kind of courage.

In the future, we must work hard to repay Xu Zhuo's kindness.

Thinking of this, Cao Kun took the bacon stew and handed it to Xu Zhuo: "Boss Xu, come and try my mother's craftsmanship......"

"What's the boss, and call my name. ”

Xu Zhuo took the bowl, sat down and sniffed the bowl, the fragrance was very strong, and it was mixed with a smell of sauce, which made him feel hungry immediately.

Subconsciously took a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, chewing it gently, Xu Zhuozhen didn't expect the bacon to be so delicious, which completely changed his impression of cured meat.

The bacon has a fragrant taste, and the fat in the meat is absorbed by the rice, so it is not so greasy to eat, but a little refreshing.

And when this bacon is chewed, there is a faint flavor and sweetness of sauce, obviously soy sauce.

But ordinary soy sauce doesn't seem to have such a strong flavor, so is this a sauce mixed by yourself?

If this is the case, then Wei Junming will not be unaware, and Yao Meixiang will also make it clear.

He took another bite of rice, this rice is super delicious, the rice grains are covered with fat but the grains are distinct, and it tastes like eating pork bibimbap, but the taste and texture of this rice is better than that of lard bibimbap.

The reason is easy to find, lard bibimbap is rice mixed with lard and soy sauce, and the fat and salt are on the surface of the rice grains.

In the process of cooking this bowl of stewed rice, the fat and salt in the bacon have been absorbed by the rice grains, making this rice particularly enjoyable.

Xu Zhuo originally planned to taste two bites, feel the taste of bacon stewed rice, and then ask to say goodbye and go back.

There is also a braised fish head at home, and if you eat too much stewed rice, you won't be able to eat the fish head, and according to Li Hao's urine, this fish head will definitely not be left.

But after tasting the bacon stew, he couldn't stop the car, and ate a bowl of bacon stew in one go.

Wiping his mouth, Xu Zhuo gave a thumbs up to Cao's mother: "Auntie, the bacon stew you made is really delicious, can you tell me how to make it?"

Mother Cao saw that Xu Zhuo liked it, and her face was immediately full of joy: "The method is very simple, boil the bacon for a while, chop it and mix it into the rice, and then cut some vegetables into it, and cut what you have, this is not particular." When you're done, pour water into the pot and start boiling, add some soy sauce when it's almost ready, and let it simmer for a while......"

This approach seems to be similar to what Yao Meixiang said.

But why does it taste so good?

Xu Zhuo couldn't figure it out, and he didn't know if there was any way in it.

But if there is, Yao Meixiang shouldn't know it, and even if Yao Meixiang doesn't understand this, doesn't Wei Junming understand?

He's a chef, a man who doesn't miss any learning opportunities when it comes to cooking.

Mother Cao was about to serve rice with Xu Zhuo's bowl again, but was stopped by Xu Zhuo: "Enough is enough, I'm already full, aunt, can I take a look at the soy sauce at your house?"

A bowl full of bacon stewed rice made Xu Zhuo full of food, and his interest in stewed rice has now shifted to the soy sauce used by Cao's mother.

Xu Zhuo asked himself that he had seen many soy sauce brands, but none of them could impress him as deeply as the soy sauce in the stewed rice.

The taste is a bit like the soy sauce sauce in the scallion oil noodles, but the taste is slightly different.

There is too much sugar added to the sauce of the noodles with scallion oil, so it tastes very sweet after eating, and the flavor of soy sauce is not very strong.

But this bacon stewed rice tastes rich in sauce and flavor, but the sweetness is very light.

Xu Zhuo has never eaten this kind of soy sauce, so he is more interested.

If it's the reason for soy sauce, see what brand it is, just go back and buy some, it's easy!

However, after he asked to see the soy sauce, Cao's mother was obviously stunned for a moment: "What do you have to look at? It's my own home-brewed soy sauce, which tastes bad, and you have to mix it before you can use it......

What she said was a little fast, but Xu Zhuo didn't understand much: "What? Reconcile? How to reconcile? Auntie, you teach me......

Cao Kun also finished eating bacon stewed rice at this time, came to the kitchen with a bowl, and saw Xu Zhuo asking about soy sauce, so he said: "Many of our people in Sichuan like to eat soy sauce made by themselves, and my mother is like this, I can't get used to buying it, but the soy sauce raw sauce I make is too strong, I can......'t stand it."

After saying that, he put down the bowl and took the bacon.

Cao's mother was in the kitchen, teaching Xu Zhuo to make soy sauce.

This soy sauce is also known as replica soy sauce, that is, secondary processed soy sauce, which has a strong flavor and can be flexibly adjusted to whatever flavor you want.

The specific method is not difficult, Cao's mother was worried that Xu Zhuo could not understand Sichuan, so she specially demonstrated it to Xu Zhuo.

When Xu Zhuo saw a large jar of home-brewed soy sauce in the kitchen, he was immediately envious.

He used to be interested in home-brewed soy sauce, although home-brewed soy sauce has many disadvantages, such as it is not easy to preserve, such as difficult to stabilize the taste, and too difficult to make.

But because it doesn't contain any additives and has a relatively simple taste, it's a favorite of high-end chefs.

Soy sauce on the market, whether it is the so-called ancient handmade soy sauce or synthetic soy sauce with various flavors, inevitably has additives, and it is difficult to find a soy sauce with a pure taste.

I didn't expect to meet it by mistake, which is really unexpected.

Cao's mother scooped out half a bowl of soy sauce from the jar, poured it into the pot and boiled it slowly, while throwing star anise leaves and a few peppercorns into it, and finally put in a spoonful of sugar.

"Homemade soy sauce doesn't taste like anything other than saltiness, so when you eat it, you have to boil it first to increase the flavor and sweetness, so that the taste is better......
