Chapter 81: Opening a Store (3)
"Huh? Why don't you have a single guest? Isn't it officially open yet? The young man said.
"Open! It's open, but it's the first day of soft opening! You are our first customer! Yan Yuan hurriedly greeted him.
Everyone in the fish restaurant began to move, and several waiters in the hall department immediately walked up, some were responsible for leading the guests, some brought tea, and some took the menu.
Yan Yuan took the order menu from the waiter's hand and handed it to the elderly man, "Old man, what do you call it?" ”
The old man smiled, "My surname is Lin." You can just call me Old Man Lin. ”
"Lin Lao, what do you think you need?" Yan Yuan naturally didn't call Old Man Lin, but omitted a word.
Lin Lao smiled, "Young man, you are really clever!" Tell the old man, what is the best dish in your shop? ”
"I'll tell you the truth, this is a newly opened restaurant, and there is no basis for saying what is the best, but our signature dishes are definitely unique. The main ingredient is pure natural wild fish, without adding any artificial flavor enhancement seasoning, only some pure natural ingredients. Not only does it not cover the natural pure taste of the fish, but it also deliberately enhances the umami and original flavor of the fish. Not to say that this fish is the best, but it is definitely a unique flavor that you have never tasted. "Yan Yuan's eloquence is still quite good.
"Haha, don't blow the cowhide this time! Although the old man can't say that he has tasted the delicious food of the world, there are really not many Chinese delicacies that the old man has not tasted! Lin Lao said with a smile.
Old Madam Lin scolded with a smile, "Old man, bragging again!" Have you ever eaten all the delicious food in the world? ”
Lin Lao's son smiled and said, "Dad, otherwise, let's order their signature dish here, a pure fish." What do you think? ”
Lin Lao's grandson also coaxed on the side, "I want to eat fish, I want to eat fish!" ”
"Good, good! Our gluttonous cat seems to want to eat fish! Just listen to Ranran, let's order a pure flavor fish and see if your fish is worthy of this name? Lin Lao said with a smile.
Lin Lao also ordered a few other dishes, and quickly handed over the menu in his hand to Yan Yuan, "Try to hurry up!" After playing all day, I was indeed a little hungry! ”
"Rest assured, our food here is absolutely good and fast. Wait a minute, everyone! Drink some tea. Xiao Liang, give Lin Lao this table of tea. Yan Yuan said, handed the menu in his hand to the waiter, and then beckoned to serve tea.
In fact, there was already a waiter standing aside with tea, and Yan Yuan just took the opportunity to find an excuse to walk away. Otherwise, people may not be happy if they are always here.
The first chef of Jiangbian, it is inevitable that he is a little nervous, when he usually eats by himself, he doesn't even bother to put this ingredient, and people who can feel happy when they can eat enough, do they need such a wonderful taste? It doesn't matter if it's good or not, but this time it's a little different, he's making it for others! I'm a chef myself!
Although there was some tension, the riverside was still very quiet, and every step was carried out in an orderly manner.
Liu Jiedong sometimes glances at this young chef curiously. He was a little reassured about this young chef, he was too young! Not as old as your own son! His son is still living a life of gnawing old age, and he has become the owner and chef of this fish restaurant!
In addition to the fish, it was all done by Liu Jiedong and Yan Yuan, because Yan Yuan had a more important task today, which was to receive visitors outside. Of course, I didn't expect it to be so idle as it is today.
Liu Jiedong looked at it for a while, but he didn't see anything special about the riverside, and his craftsmanship was not very skilled. Even some of the movements look a bit layman, and the cut is very even, but it is obviously not professional. Liu Jiedong didn't know why Jiangbian could be the head chef of the fish restaurant, and he was very anxious.
Liu Jiedong is not jealous, but worried that the two young bosses are too childish, thinking that their skills are outstanding, but in fact they are very laymen. How can a frequent eater outside not be able to eat the dishes made by laymen and connoisseurs?
Never mind! Today is the first day, and it's not good to sweep the face of the two bosses, but if he messes up this table, I should take over the kitchen and not let these two children fool around. Liu Jiedong said in his heart.
Jiangbian didn't know what Liu Jiedong thought in his heart, although he was a little nervous, but what to do, he still did it, and he didn't show any softness. I put some rapeseed oil, which Yan Yuan had obtained from the countryside with great difficulty, and it was not the same thing as the blended oil sold in the supermarket.
The blended oil in the supermarket seems to have a variety of nutrients, but in fact, a lot of things are added to it, and the flavor substances are completely destroyed because of the unlimited pursuit of production, so even the so-called pressed oil bought at a high price can rarely smell the original flavor of rapeseed oil.
Boil rapeseed oil by the river, but do not wait for it to smoke, otherwise it will destroy the flavor substances in it, and the nutrition will be greatly damaged. Then immediately put the cut fish pieces into the pan for deep frying, and after the appearance of the fish pieces is a little crispy, the fish is taken out, some of the ingredients are put in, fried slightly, and an appropriate amount of water is immediately poured in, and then the fried fish is put in.
No one noticed a detail, that is, the water in the pot by the river is not ordinary tap water, nor is it the pure water used to cook high-end dishes in the store, but the water taken out of the fish basket space.
When the water boiled slightly, the river put the rest of the seasoning in again. Then cover the pot. Set up the soup bowls by the riverside.
Picking up his own water cup, Jiangbian took a sip of water, at this time, Jiangbian didn't have any tension anymore, every step, Jiangbian almost did the best, and the final taste Jiangbian didn't have to worry, it would definitely not be worse than what he did that night.
In fact, Liu Jiedong saw every step in his eyes and couldn't help but shake his head, this practice is not much different from ordinary people's cooking. Unless a miracle happens. Liu Jiedong doesn't think that Jiangbian can make a delicious one.
Cooking is a very peculiar thing, and almost every time you cook, it is a process that cannot be replicated. No one can make two dishes that taste absolutely the same. This makes cooking an art as well, and all those who love cooking are trying hard to make their own dishes taste close to perfect. Liu Jiedong seems to have forgotten this, and attaches too much importance to the process and form, which is one of the reasons why he can only become an ordinary chef.
Liu Jiedong's skills are still very good, and when he finished this fish dish by the riverside, he had already fried two or three dishes.
The fish is packed by the riverside, but although the appearance of the fish is not bad after putting it in the bowl, and it is covered by the soup, the craftsmanship of the riverside is indeed a little unprofessional. You can't make a big dish with the color, flavor and flavor of those master chefs.
Yan Yuan had eaten the taste of fish made by the riverside, so although the fish made by the river did not look very good, he was still full of confidence.
This main dish, Yan Yuan personally delivered it to the dining table of Lin Lao's family, "This is the signature dish of our Yipin Fish Flavor Restaurant, a pure flavor fish!" One of the specialties of our pure fish is that the fish are slaughtered wild, but today you are our first guests, so you can taste the best ingredients in our store. In this dish, we use wild eel, and we use a unique cooking method to retain the unique flavor of wild eel, so please enjoy it slowly. ”
"I said Brother Yan, you are a little unrealistic! If this ingredient is really what you call wild eel, then I am a little sorry that this ingredient should be handed over to a bad chef who knows so much about cooking. What a tyrannical thing! Lin Lao said with some displeasure.
Lin Lao is slow to judge. If I hadn't tasted the taste of this fish with my own mouth, and saw the appearance of this fish, I was afraid that it would be a pity that I would have been like Lin Lao, and I would definitely regret that this ingredient was wasted. But if you taste this taste, Lin Lao may be like me, and praise the way the fish is cooked. Yan Yuan said calmly.
"Oh, then I'm going to try it and see if it's what you say." Lin Lao said.
Lin Lao's grandson, Lin Ran, couldn't hold back a little, "I want to eat fish, I want to eat fish." ”
When children eat, they don't care much about the appearance of the food, but more about the flavor of the food. Adults tend to care more about the appearance of food.
When a product of pure flavor fish was brought to the table, a rich fragrance escaped, which immediately lured Lin Ran's appetite.
"Come on, come on, I'll add a piece of fish to our good darling." Lin Lao hurriedly picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks and sent it to Lin Ran's bowl.
Although the fish doesn't look particularly good, the fish is cooked just right. The surface of the fish is folded by deep-frying and has a faint golden color. When caught on chopsticks, it doesn't break as easily as ordinary fish.
Lin Ran hurriedly grabbed a small piece, and seeing that there were no fish bones, he ate it in his mouth. A long, sweet smell immediately spreads in the mouth.
Lin Ran praised repeatedly, "It's delicious!" I still want it! No one can rob me. ”
Lin Lao was a little stunned, but he thought that this child was extremely hungry, and he felt that everything he ate had a taste, and the child could not distinguish the taste, even if it was an ordinary taste, it might be very delicious in their mouths, so the taste of this dish may actually be just general.
"Dead old man, what do you see, don't you know if you eat a piece?" Old Madam Lin said with a smile.
A few people waited for Lin Lao's judgment, Lin Lao's family was very interesting, and whatever they ate, it seemed that they would only eat after Lin Lao's judgment. Only Lin Ran at home is an exception.
After Yan Yuan served the food, he stepped aside, but in fact, his attention was still on the only group of customers in the store at this time---- Lin Lao's family. He was a little looking forward to what kind of reaction Old Man Lin would have after tasting the unique fish feast made by the riverside.
