Chapter 6 Guidelines for Preventing Mines in Restaurants and Antisocial Youth
"Hmmmm~ It's delicious. The stinky young man ate Zhang Tong's fried noodles in a big gulp, and after choking a little, he drank curry soup. Seriously, he really didn't expect instant noodles to be so delicious.
Compared with the instant noodles I eat now, the various handsome instant noodles I ate in the past few years are all happy.
"Are you so hungry?" Zhang Tong looked at the boy with some curiosity while drinking the curry soup. Although the curry soup tastes good, after all, it is just a simple instant noodle brewed directly with a cooking bag, so the taste is still slightly lacking. However, this lack can only be tasted by foodies like Zhang Tong.
Although modern people, especially those who enjoy a refined life in many cities, they are very much in favor of using the original way of cooking and cooking. Especially stewed soups and the like, it is natural to stew them with real ingredients to be delicious. Many people feel that they can taste the taste of real stew and the taste of soup made with seasoning powder.
But in fact, Toyo had a very interesting experiment a few years ago, that is, to experiment with the most common bonito soup in Toyo from snacks to large. One is real bonito soup, and the other is bonito soup made from bonito soup powder. Look at those Oriental people who can tell which is the real soup and which is made from the soup powder packets.
Bobice soup is one of the most widely used base soups in Japanese cuisine, and is used in almost all Japanese soup dishes. Many ramen restaurants use their own soy sauce, which is made with a mixture of bonito soup and soy sauce, as well as other ingredients. There are also the most famous food on the streets of Osaka, octopus balls, in which the batter is made using bonito soup to give it a unique umami taste. The same is true of Okonomiyaki, which is named after Osaka, and the batter of Okonomiyaki is also made with bonito soup.
There is also Japanese-style miso soup, where the most important ingredient besides miso is bonito.
Bobby soup is almost the national dish of the East. The application range is more extensive than the bone broth chicken soup commonly drunk by Chinese. Almost all Orientals think they can clearly distinguish which soup is made from real bonito and which is made with powdered soup.
The program conducted a random sampling experiment with thousands of Orientals, and the final result was that among the thousands of Orientals who participated in the experiment, only 1% of the Orientals could accurately distinguish between soup powder and real bonito. The remaining 99 percent of the Oriental people clearly stated that the soup made with soup powder has more texture, better texture and taste, and is more like 'real' bonito soup.
In fact, it is the same in China, using crab roe paste (not real crab roe, just a viscous seasoning) and senbeisu/powder (another seasoning) and millet to make porridge, as long as the proportions are right, you can make a pot of rich crab roe porridge. It tastes quite like that, in the capital's seafood hotel, a crab roe porridge made with such seasonings can be sold for 180 yuan a pot, and if you add a little mutton slices to make crab roe mutton porridge, it will be more like that. This will make a table of diners eat with relish, and only a third-rate author sitting in the corner can only see through it and tremble. (Note)
In fact, many processed foods today may taste better than natural ones. After all, food prices are really expensive nowadays, just like many people think that a bowl of Japanese ramen is expensive in more than 30. However, the Japanese ramen in the more than 30 is basically a fake tonkotsu broth brewed from Taobao tonkotsu soup packets. If you really want to boil a pot of tonkotsu soup, you can use bonito kelp and other ingredients to make the soup base for Japanese-style ramen, and if you open a shop on the lively street in Huaihai, the price should not be less than 80 yuan, otherwise you will lose money.
Therefore, in this era, most Japanese food stores can be opened very large, and the cost of materials is very low. Otherwise, you will have to use soup packets for cooking. Even the barbecued pork is not made by itself, but the finished barbecued pork produced directly by Taobao procured food factories. Even the boiled eggs inside are directly procured finished products.
Only in this way can the price of a bowl of Japanese-style tonkotsu barbecued pork noodles be suppressed within 40 yuan.
The same thing is the so-called whole (or half) eel rice for 58 to 88 yuan a piece, which must be a semi-finished eel from a food factory. Because if a river eel is bought in the vegetable market, the price is about sixty or seventy yuan. If the eel is freshly grilled, the restaurant will have to sell it for more than 200 yuan to make money.
So don't eat the eel rice for dozens of yuan in a Japanese restaurant, go to the supermarket to buy semi-finished eel and Japanese-style teriyaki sauce, put the eel in the microwave and heat it for a while, and then brush it with teriyaki juice. Then spread it on top of the rice. An eel rice bowl priced at 58 yuan and 68 yuan in a Japanese restaurant is ready. And the taste is the same as in the restaurant, because this eel rice is also done in the restaurant.
For example, the kind of 8-inch pizza sold by cheap pizzerias for 39 yuan is basically a frozen semi-finished pizza. In addition, more and more stores will now begin to provide a variety of fried snacks, which are basically semi-finished products purchased on Taobao. These things can be made at home and taste not much different from those in a restaurant. If you don't want to fry them, you can throw them directly into the oven and bake them, and they taste good, which is slightly different from frying.
There are also various dim sum in the restaurant, and many restaurants don't actually have a dedicated white case chef. Especially in the so-called star-rated hotels that focus on accommodation, Chinese people talk about pomp and circumstance, and like to open banquets to four-star and five-star hotels. These hotels are not inherently catering-oriented. In particular, there are even fewer white case masters, so the dim sum in these hotels is all semi-finished. If you order food there, you may spend 68 yuan to order a cage of Synear brand quick-frozen xiaolongbao.
Only a handful of hotels like White Swan Restaurant always have excellent dim sum chefs.
So many times people say that the taste of a big restaurant is not as good as a small restaurant on the street, which is not unreasonable. Because you probably spent a lot of money at a big restaurant and ate a bunch of half-finished cooking kits. Its basic nature is no different from that of a takeaway kit, except that the kit they use is better.
In many cases, the kitchen is directly open, and all the guests can see the situation in the kitchen directly, and the chef will try it with a cooking bag.
The big hotel eats pomp, and the small restaurant eats the taste. This is the unique way of survival of Chinese restaurants.
It's like Zhang Tong's small shop, there is no exquisite decoration here, and there is no beautiful scenery for the girls to check in and take pictures. There are no dishes for mobile phones to eat.
There are only delicious snacks to satisfy your appetite.
"You've eaten a lot of instant noodles. ”
"Well, a lot. Ate it for several years. ”
"Instant noodles for a few years?"
"Well, to be precise, I've been eating instant noodles and fast food like fried rice for three years. ”
"You don't fire at home?"
"Hmm...... Yes. ”
"Then you don't eat stir-fried food or something?"
"That's a bit pricey, instant noodles are the cheapest. Two or three pieces in a pack, soak and eat directly. ”
"Oh. Zhang Tong looked at the young man with a stinky face, and suddenly knew why this guy was so resistant to instant noodles. And it's no wonder that his face is stinky, I guess it's not because he deliberately put on his face or anything, but because he was malnourished after eating too much instant noodles.
"You're an Awakener?"
"Yes. He who came here to study. ”
"My parents didn't come along. ”
"Died early. And I'm an adult, eighteen years old, and I don't need a guardian anymore. ”
"Well, alone. Not afraid of being bullied when you're away from home?"
"Heh, whoever dares to bully me, I will blow them up!" the young man raised his head and said simply, not joking, not threatening or pretending, just a very simple declarative sentence.
