Chapter 105: A Pot of Medicinal Soup
Like the day before, at around eleven o'clock, Song Zixuan was already ready to get off work.
This is simply a dream for other chefs, working half an hour a day and getting a monthly salary of more than 100,000 yuan a month, but for Song Zixuan, it has become somewhat normalized.
After making the last fried rice, Song Zixuan picked up a towel and wiped his sweat, which is also an inevitable action after finishing work every day.
The ingredients for fried rice may seem simple, but they are very energy-consuming, after all, Imperial fried rice requires not only stir-frying, but internal force.
"Master, where are we going today?" Sang Tianshuo asked with interest.
Song Zixuan thought about it, walked into Sang Tianshuo and whispered a few words.
"What? Why do you want this? We don't need to. ”
"Sensei asked so much, if I ask you to prepare, you can prepare, go and get it. ”
Sang Tianshuo nodded, walked to the freezer, and soon, took out several ingredients.
Just as he was about to hug Song Zixuan, Zheng Hui saw this and said, "What are you doing, why are you taking so many things?"
Sang Tianshuo was holding a few pieces of tenderloin in his hand, as well as a few boxes of uncivilized sea cucumbers, a few eggs, and most importantly, a whole ham, and when he saw Zheng Hui asking, he ignored it and walked towards Song Zixuan.
Zheng Hui is so angry in his heart, even if you cows don't have to be so blind, right? I'm also the head chef!
Immediately, he approached Song Zixuan and said, "Chef Song, you are ......?"
"Hehe, I've been making fried rice for a while, and I've practiced stir-frying two dishes. ”
Zheng Hui looked at the ingredients when he heard this, and said, "Then you can't use so much, right?"
After all, the head chef is still in charge of the kitchen procurement, such as tenderloin and eggs, but a few boxes of sea cucumbers and whole ham are really worth a lot, so he can't explain how to use them.
Song Zixuan smiled: "I'm sorry, head chef, he doesn't understand, he took too much." ”
After speaking, Song Zixuan approached Sang Tianshuo and glared at him, and said in a low voice: "Why do you take so much, crazy!"
"I don't know how much Master uses, so I brought it all, it's okay, I'll put it back after you cut it, by the way, Master, there is no shark fin." ”
Song Zixuan thought about it, this is not new, now the official ban on shark fishing, and it is not recommended to eat shark fin, especially in northern China, far less than the demand for shark fin in the south.
"Let's get a pack of fans, and I'll figure it out later. ”
"Okay!"
Sang Tianshuo threw the things on the board, and walked to the freezer again without looking at Zheng Hui.
Zheng Hui is called a gas, and the only one who dares to ignore him in the Great Food Generation is probably Sang Tianshuo, oh no, there is also a newcomer, Fang Rui.
That guy is usually cold, doesn't speak, doesn't shout, just like a dumb person, but one thing Zheng Hui can be sure of is that it can be seen from his eyes that he doesn't take anyone other than Song Zixuan seriously at all, including Zheng Hui, the head chef.
But there is one thing that excites him, that is, since the opening of the big food generation, Song Zixuan has never made dishes other than imperial fried rice, he thinks?? What else will this guy cook.
Zheng Hui looked at the ingredients again, but he was a little puzzled, tenderloin, ham, sea cucumber ...... Egg?
At least since he learned to cook, he has never seen any dishes with such a combination......
"Hehe, Chef Song, what are you...... What are you going to cook?"
Hearing this, Song Zixuan understood the other party's purpose and smiled: "Guess?"
After speaking, Song Zixuan walked out of the back kitchen, and Sang Tianshuo and Fang Rui also followed, leaving Zheng Hui still looking at the ingredients.
"Stir-fried tenderloin, grilled sea cucumber, no, eggs and ham don't fit in with each other at all......"
Walking out of the Great Food Generation, Song Zixuan looked left and right, and immediately clicked on the map software in his mobile phone, seeing this, Sang Tianshuo smiled and said, "Okay, Master, you can use maps?"
"Hehe, my sister taught me, find a pharmacy and go!"
"Master, are you sick?"
Song Zixuan ignored it, and walked away, the nearest pharmacy was only more than 700 meters, so he simply walked over.
Walking into the pharmacy, Song Zixuan began to buy medicinal materials according to the needs of the golden scale five soups, and he found that the price of these medicinal materials was far higher than he imagined, and some were even more expensive than meat and seafood.
Astragalus is about 40 yuan a catty, Codonopsis is almost 40 yuan, Panax notoginseng is even more than 100 yuan, ginseng has reached more than 200 yuan, and the price of deer antler velvet is even more popular, 200 grams is already about 300 yuan.
These prices are still bought by Song Zixuan according to the slightly lower quality, after all, there is no need to pursue high-end as an edible auxiliary material.
Song Zixuan only bought about three taels of each according to the price of making five servings, and only bought a little more ginseng, after all, the soup base of the golden scale five-way soup needs ginseng, and the amount is relatively large.
"Coupled with the cost price of the ingredients, the golden scale five soups are really much more expensive than the imperial fried rice. Song Zixuan muttered.
"What are you talking about, Master?"
"It's nothing, let's go, let's stay after work tonight, I want to try the dishes." ”
After Song Zixuan finished speaking, Sang Tianshuo immediately became excited: "Is this the second dish you said? There is also traditional Chinese medicine, it's awesome!"
After that, Song Zixuan and the others went home first, after all, he didn't plan to try the five-way soup in front of so many people.
It wasn't until around ten o'clock in the evening that Song Zixuan estimated that the Great Food Dynasty was almost closed, so he took a taxi with Sang Tianshuo and Fang Rui and turned back.
The kitchen ends at half past nine in the evening, which means that after half past nine, only the front office attendant is responsible for cleaning and greeting the guests who have not left, and all the chefs should have left the store.
In this way, Song Zixuan can start to try the dishes, after all, he wants to avoid his peers, not everyone.
When he arrived at the Great Food Dynasty, Song Zixuan said: "Tianshuo, you are in the front hall, if there is a chef back, tell me immediately." ”
"Master, I still want to see you cook, let Ruizi go. ”
Song Zixuan smiled: "You don't want to chat with Luo Lili anymore?"
Sang Tianshuo gasped and thought about it: "Master, I think this task is glorious and arduous, Ruizi is enough to complete it!"
Burst......
Walking into the back kitchen, Song Zixuan saw that the ingredients put in the day had been civilized, so he took it and shredded it first, just enough for one serving, so he stopped.
Then, start cooking according to the method in the recipe, first, shredded loin, shredded ham, shredded sea cucumber and vermicelli are cooked until half-cooked, of course, the ingredient in the recipe is shark fin, and you can only use vermicelli instead.
While the main ingredients were in the pot, Song Zixuan had already used a casserole to boil traditional Chinese medicine, but this boiling medicine was not an ordinary method.
Medicinal herbs and ingredients are not the same, but the herbs should be boiled according to the ingredients, which is a very important part of the golden scale five soups, to soften the medicinal effect and remove the medicinal taste.
In this way, we can ensure that there is no half of the taste of Chinese medicine in the soup, but the effect of the big tonic exists.
Especially in the current era, whether young or middle-aged and elderly, they are all weakened by fatigue or illness, and making up for the early is no longer only for the old, weak, sick and disabled, but for the whole society.
This is also the reason why Song Zixuan thinks that the golden scale five soups are justified to be more popular than the emperor's fried rice.
In the past, it was basically not the emperor but also the royal family and nobles who could eat this dish, but today, ordinary people can eat it!
It takes at least dozens of minutes to a few hours to boil the medicine normally, and the fire turns into a small fire, but the golden scale five soups are different, and the whole process is on fire, and it only boils for ten minutes.
Soon, Song Zixuan poured out the medicinal soup, then smelled the smell in the casserole, and couldn't help frowning slightly, why is the medicinal smell still so strong?
Maybe these medicinal herbs can enter the ingredients, and the medicinal flavor can be neutralized, thinking of this, Song Zixuan got out of the pot and began to scramble the shredded eggs.
The method of shredded eggs is to beat the eggs into the hot oil pan, and by the shaking of the pan to spread the eggs into the thinnest state, in essence, it looks like spreading the eggs, but thinner.
Remove the eggs from the pan when they are about to be cooked and let the residual heat cook them all to ensure that they do not mush.
The round egg slices are then shredded with a thief, which is delicious and chewy, and the shredded egg is ready.
Next, the final step is to mix the ingredients, herbs and seasonings to make the soup, and boil the essence of the ingredients into the soup to make the soup rich and viscous, which is the final step, to become a bowl of soup.
But when Song Zixuan put the ingredients into the pot, he was immediately stunned!
His eyes widened, but he regretted it...... It's obviously too late.
Looking at the pot of ingredients, he bit his lip lightly: "Ruizi, are you hungry?" ”
"Second master, I'm not hungry, my grandmother brought me six steamed buns when I was at home just now, and I'm full. ”
Hearing this, Song Zixuan gave him a blank look: "Grandma...... Sang Tianshuo taught you, right?"
Fang Rui lowered his head and said embarrassedly: "Well, he said that I don't call the grandmother unruly, and he will find a way to get me away in the future." ”
"Virtue, take care of him in the future, you have to call my mother aunt, and aunt is okay, is too grandma like words!"
"I understand, second master. ”
Song Zixuan looked back at the pot of soup and pouted helplessly: "It must be wrong, forget it, let's fix it." ”
According to the recipe, the whole dish is finished, and I have no appetite just by smelling it, no wonder grandpa said that this dish is a wrong step, and the taste is disgusting......
"Second master, why is it so drug-like. ”
Song Zixuan smiled: "I made a mistake, I boiled a pot of medicinal soup, pour it for me." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Zixuan's mobile phone rang, it was Lin Tiannan's call, saying that he had returned from Yanjing, and asked him to go directly to the office building of Zhong'an Commercial Building to meet.
Subsequently, Song Zixuan simply cleaned up and took a taxi to Zhong'an Commercial Building.
The ninth floor of Zhong'an Commercial Building.
Song Zixuan is not the first time to come here, after the last conflict with Li Jiahao, he and Zhao Jingyun have been here, and they also met Tang Yaqi at that time.
But this time it was different, the commercial building had already closed, and it was Sun Shouwen who was waiting in front of the door to pick them up.
Entering the chairman's office, Song Zixuan felt a kind of hospitality, Lin Tiannan did not sit in the office inside, but sat on the sofa and waited.
There were a few side dishes and two bottles of red wine on the coffee table in front of him, Song Zixuan didn't know the brand of red wine, but it was estimated that it should be quite expensive.
"Brother Song, you're here, come on, sit here, let's talk while eating. ”
Song Zixuan smiled bitterly when he heard this, which one is Lin Tiannan going to sing?
