Chapter 54: Oden
"Old fairy, I'll discuss something with you. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Chen Ze suddenly thought that there were still many people waiting outside, and there must be many potential customers among these people. So he thought about getting some spicy tang to try outside for the undecided onlookers, and if they thought it was delicious, maybe he could get more customers.
Chen Ze's idea is, to put it bluntly, to turn these potential customers into real customers.
"If there's anything, you just say it." Tai Bai Xing turned his face and asked.
"Can you help me refine a trolley with a lot of small grids?" Chen Ze asked a little cutely, this request is a bit headless and endless, and there are ghosts if Bai Jinxing can understand it.
Sure enough, Tai Bai Xing said a little confused after hearing this: "Huh? What is a lot of small compartments? You make it clear. ”
"Oh, I can't tell you for a while, I'll draw it for you." Chen Ze also realized that there was something wrong with his expression, so he thought it would be better to draw the tool that made oden.
So, Chen Ze took out a pencil and a notebook from the storage ring and drew the utensils for oden.
"What a strange thing, what is it for?" Tai Bai Xing had been waiting patiently for Chen Ze, during which he also helped him take care of the boiled fish soup base on the stove, and he didn't ask until Chen Ze finished painting.
Chen Ze handed over the drawings to Tai Bai Xing, and while adding some firewood to the stove, he told Tai Bai Xing about his plans.
"That's a good idea, it's going to be all in one go! But this oden? What is it? Tai Bai Xing asked with some curiosity.
"This, I'll do it later, you can taste it first, and we'll take it out if you think it's delicious, otherwise forget it." Chen Ze said casually, of course it's a joke, but this oden is really the first time he has made it, so he can't guarantee that he can make it delicious.
"Okay, the seats in the shop are also full, and the fish sent by Marshal Tianpeng are almost used up, and you are almost done with these pots. Then you will be a little more tired, and let the people outside who are struggling to watch the excitement also have a taste. Tai Bai Xing admonished, and then walked out to refine the utensils for the oden.
He treats Chen Ze as his grandson, and he naturally strongly supports what Chen Ze wants to do.
Oden has two main origins, one is a dish from the Kanto region of Japan, and the other is a special diet from the Tohoku region of Japan.
Nowadays, it is generally accepted that the first theory is true, but in fact, the original oden was a hot pot that originated in Tohoku, and it was only later that it became famous in the Kanto region of Japan.
This is also the reason why the oden that is now popular in China and Taiwan continues the style of Japanese oden.
Although there are some small regrets, but thinking about it, it's understandable, who makes people better than us?
Oden, as the name suggests, is boiled, and the usual ingredients mainly include boiled eggs, radish, konjac, chikuwa, etc., and the method is very simple, which is to cook all these ingredients in kelp or bonito soup.
When cooked, it can be used to accompany rice or eaten as a snack.
In Japan, oden can be bought and eaten at convenience stores or roadside stalls, and this is why Chen Ze asked Tai Bai Xing to help refine the utensils just now.
In the regions where oden is popular, Japan and Taiwan are sold in this way.
In recent years, oden has been selling quite well in the mainland, and it is easy to buy it in the roadside food and beverage business area, and there are even people who pull it to sell it next to the school, and it is possible to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars next to a high school in winter.
When Chen Ze was in high school, he didn't stop shopping around some stalls.
Due to differences in eating habits, the taste and ingredients of domestic oden have been quite different from authentic oden.
Among the oden sold at the roadside stalls we saw, the three most popular flavors were roughly Gong Ball, Fish Tofu and Dried Orchid Tofu, and these are also the main products that Chen Ze will want to wait for.
……
It didn't take long for Tai Bai Xing to refine the utensils on Chen Ze's drawings, and Chen Ze had finally made all the boiled fish and some side dishes at this moment, and it was time to prepare oden.
"I have some things to do when I go out, just let them help you get it down when you do it." Tai Bai Xing went out after handing over the equipment to Chen Ze, and he didn't know what to do with it.
The method of oden is very simple, although Chen Ze has not really done it, but theoretically he can.
There were too many things to cook, so Chen Ze first boiled a large pot of boiling water and adjusted a universal soup base. Then he put the few things he bought on the earth, such as hot dogs, kelp knots, tribute balls, fish tofu, quail eggs, and other miscellaneous things in the all-purpose soup base, and boiled them.
When the ingredients in the all-purpose soup base were almost cooked, Chen Ze scooped them all out and put them in various small compartments.
In the end, Chen Ze scooped the all-purpose soup base into a small grid of oden, adding about one-third of each grid, and then adding the other two-thirds of the soup base according to various ingredients.
At this point, the oden was completed, Chen Ze picked up a tribute pill and tried it, and found that the taste was not bad, basically no different from what he ate at the school gate in high school.
I didn't pay attention to it before, but now that the oden is done, Chen Ze has time to look at the cart that sells oden that has been refined by Tai Bai Xing in the kitchen. Not to mention, this trolley is decently refined by Tai Bai Xing, except that the wheels are not made of rubber, everything else is no different.
Speaking of this, Chen Ze had to admire the learning ability of the immortals.
When he drew drawings to show the immortals before, it was obviously very simple things that they couldn't understand alive or dead, and it took Chen Ze a lot of effort to teach them.
But after the church, they showed Chen Ze the amazing understanding and learning ability of the immortals.
Because it didn't take long for them to just glance at Chen Ze's drawings and without Chen Ze's guidance, they could refine what Chen Ze needed.
Looking at the trolley in front of him that specialized in selling oden, Chen Ze felt that as long as he made a small roof on it and wrote the word oden, it would be no different from the oden sold on the roadside in the mortal world.
Chen Ze couldn't let go of this opportunity to raise a spicy hot shop to promote himself, but he didn't get a roof, and it didn't look like it could rain anyway, what he wanted to get was a signboard.
Just do it, Chen Ze found a piece of white silk, wrote on it with a brush [Chen Ji Malatang - Oden] and hung it on the trolley.
Everything was ready, Chen Ze thought about it and still didn't call the immortals to taste it, because maybe after they tasted it, the people waiting outside would only be the soup.
He had tried it before, and the taste of this oden was very good, and the people of Heavenly Court should be able to accept it.
"Next, it's time to accept the market and accept the customer's inspection!" Chen Ze took a breath, put the trolley into the storage ring, and walked out of the kitchen.
