The menu is set by You Dasco according to the budget given by the host, and such a table of dishes is definitely a big meal in the countryside.

Unloading the things in the car, the three of them got busy, Zhao Weiquan went to the main kitchen to make cold dishes, and especially helped Dad cut some ingredients such as green onions, ginger and garlic.

"With one hand, you go and chop the meat, and I'll make the croquettes. You Dascoop in front of the stove shouted.

You Yishou, who was cutting the ingredients, hurriedly responded when he heard it: "Got it, Dad." ”

These cuts are all small meanings for You's hand, I saw him holding a double knife, his legs were slightly bent, the knife in his hand flew up and down, and each knife went down with an inch of strength, so that the meat minced out would not be too broken, but also to ensure the elasticity of the meat, and the fried meatballs would be more powerful.

"Dad, do you think it's okay?" You said, pointing to the meat on the cutting board.

"Well, yes, you put it in a basin and I'll season it later. You Dascoo said with satisfaction.

"Okay. ”

"With one hand, you finish this and go get a squid flower knife. Before You Yishou put the meat away, You Dascoo here has another task.

"Well, here we go. "Cutting the squid roll is just the right time to test your squid knife skills, and You Yishou happily responded.

As the sun climbs higher, the sun becomes more and more scorching, and the father and son of the You family standing in the open stove are not only exposed to the scorching sun, but also by the hot fire, the towels hanging around their necks are dripping down, and the clothes on their bodies have never been dry, although there is a sunshade net on the top of their heads, but for them, not only does not have the effect of sun protection but is more stuffy panic, fortunately, You has experienced hotter weather than this, and he is almost immune to the heat, can northern Jiangsu be hotter than the Sahara Desert。

You picked up the squid with one hand and kept ripping the shape of the wheat ear flower, without borrowing force at all, three times and two times, the squid was rolled into a beautiful wheat ear shape.

"In one hand, is the squid roll cut?"

"That's good. You said as he picked up the last squid with one hand.

"By the way, I also spent the fish, put in the green onion and ginger shreds, pour in the cooking wine and marinate it first. You Dascoo said while turning the pot.

"Delle. ”

······

The flower fish is much faster, more than a dozen fish are done by dividing five by two, and the work that you do is actually easy, he just cuts the side dishes that Dad needs, as for washing vegetables, serving vegetables, Washing dishes or something has the help of the neighbors invited by the main family, the chef only needs to fry the dishes, of course, if there is a person who can cook or dexterous to help, it will be easier, although You Yishou is a graduate of New Oriental, how to also have a bit of foundation, but from beginning to end, he did not touch the stove, because it is not where he stays, as a chef apprentice, you must understand the rules, and you must not touch what you should not touch, otherwise you will be severely punished by the master.

With one hand, put the elbow on the stove, and take the balls to cool. You Dascoo handed the fried meatballs to his son and said.

"Dad, how familiar is this meatball? Smelling the fragrant meatball, you can't help but want to eat one.

"Generally, it is eight mature, but it mainly depends on the proportion of noodles and meat, and what kind of meat you choose, whether it is pork belly or fat and thin meat, whether it is fat or thin, in the final analysis, it depends on the chef's control of oil temperature and heat, and there must be God in your eyes, don't be too rigid. You Dascoop patiently taught.

"yes, I see. ”

······

Many people will cook according to the time and proportion of books or recipes, although it is easier to succeed, but the dishes are just empty and difficult to have their meaning, the real masters are born from the heart, the taste and taste of the dishes are presented according to their own ideas, so that the dishes will have a unique taste.

"With one hand, let's see if the side dishes are ready, it's almost time, and I'm ready to go." You Dascoo commanded, in the kitchen, his words were orders.

"It's all set, Dad. "He cuts most of the side dishes, and he knows exactly what is missing and what is missing.

·······

Near noon, as more and more people came to the door, the main house became noisy, relatives and friends began to sit down, and more than a dozen round tables were staggered to make room for everyone to get closer, which also seemed more lively.

"Master You, let's serve. "The word of the Lord's house came to the word.

"Let's go cold first. You Dascoo said calmly.

Medium. ”

······

"Crackling"

"Boom-pop"

At this time, the deafening sound of firecrackers sounded outside the courtyard, one after another, endlessly, indicating that the main family will be prosperous and happy this year.

"One hand, plating. You Dascoo shouted loudly, the cold dish has been finished, and it is time to serve the hot food.

"It's coming. You came to the board with a stack of plates in one hand, wiped off the water stains, and lined them up.

The first dish is steamed chicken cake, which is a more famous dish in the rural areas of northern Jiangsu, the eggs are spread thick, and then the vegetables and quail eggs are burned together, which is particularly fresh and tender.

More than a dozen pounds of large straw pot You Da Spoon was held up with one hand, and the arm strength was scary, which is why the system required You to carry water and horse steps every day.

With one hand, take out the stewed chicken and serve it on a plate. ”

"Got it. ”

·······

In this way, in the shouting of You Dascoo, one exquisite dish after another was served on the table, and the guests who came to sit shouted deliciously.

"You village Lao You's craftsmanship is really not good. ”

"But no, I'm from Zhang Village, my son will get married next month, and I have to find him to settle down later, or it will be decided by someone else before it's too late."

"This table of dishes costs at least four or five hundred yuan in a restaurant in the city, and Lao You makes it less than two hundred, which is really affordable.

"This is his second father, can it be cheap, I guess it's good to keep the capital. ”

"The main thing is that Lao You is a real person and cooks, who doesn't boast about these ten miles and eight villages. ”

········

When the last dish is served, not to mention You Dascoo, even You Yishou, a person who has undergone systematic special training, is tired enough, what is the concept of cooking hundreds of people's meals by one person, and it is also in time to intensively serve dishes, and the interval between dishes should also be grasped, not early or late, if it is replaced by ordinary people, it is already tired, You Yishou can now understand his father's difficulty, which also makes him train more seriously and strive to leave the teacher as soon as possible, so that his father can retire early.
