Chapter 63: The Contest in the Back Kitchen
Competing with Lin Miao was a young man of about twenty-five or sixteen years old, he smiled and looked Lin Miao up and down, his left hand was slightly raised, his palm was upward, and he raised it weakly, signaling Lin Miao to invite first. Lin Miao looked around the back kitchen and glanced at all the chefs present. Suddenly, she smiled at a young woman about thirty years old, "I'm better than you." ”
I saw that in the corner of the three-cup chicken kitchen, there was a young woman who still had charm, her melon seed face, red phoenix eyes, and her hair tightly tied in a plain bun behind her head, and the short water-colored jacket on her body did not match this oily kitchen at all.
Seeing that Lin Miao took the initiative to invite the battle, the young woman didn't speak, only smiled lightly, and didn't have too many expressions.
Elder Le Yan saw that Lin Miao had chosen an opponent for the competition, and he couldn't help but follow her eyes and look at the young woman. The young woman stood tall, her waist straight, her expression not without pride, and her sleeves were rolled up to her forearms, revealing her strong, ruddy wrists. Le Yan nodded, frowning at the same time. He bowed his head and said to Lin Miao, "Girl, don't think that people are easy to bully if they are women, I see, you have picked a strong opponent for yourself." ”
Lin Miao pretended to be angry, and said angrily, "Grandpa Le Yan, you underestimate me again, thinking that I pick soft persimmons and pinch them?" Let's tell you the truth, I know she is a good cook, so I want to compete with her. If I'm not mistaken, she should be one of the best cooks in this back kitchen. ”
As soon as these words came out, the chefs in the back kitchen were all shocked, and even the young woman who was still looking at ease just now couldn't help but glance at Lin Miao at this time. This young woman's name is Jia Linglong, the daughter of the stall owner Jia, and indeed as Lin Miao said, her cooking skills are among the best in this back kitchen.
"How do you see that?" Shan Xiao couldn't help but wonder, why couldn't he see it? Similarly, in addition to Elder Le Yan, the other people in the room were also curious about this question, how did this little girl see it?
Lin Miao grinned at Shan Xiao, "I can see it from the temperament." ”
Seeing Shan Xiao's puzzled look, she added, "You won't understand, because you don't have that thing." ”
Although Shan Xiao didn't understand what she said just now, the next scolding sentence could be heard. He stretched out his hand suddenly, and made a gesture to grab the collar of her clothes, but Lin Miao flashed by a short body. Immediately, Lin Miao stuck out his tongue at him, "Do you want to do it again?" Don't! You're a big man, but you're really stingy. ”
After speaking, regardless of Shan Xiao's angry face, he came to Jia Linglong by himself, "My name is Lin Miao, dare to ask what my sister is called?" ”
Jia Linglong grinned, as charming as a blooming yellow tulip, "My name is Jia Linglong, just call me Linglong." ”
Elder Le Yan interjected at this time, "Okay, don't talk too much, since it's your own opponent, don't cry if you lose." You picked her, I don't think you have any chance of winning today. Let's all do it, each make a three-cup chicken, and the judge is me, and I think whoever makes it delicious will win. ”
As soon as this remark came out, Lin Fanglong first disagreed, "Elder Le Yan, you are the only one to be the judge, it is inevitable"
"What's wrong?" Elder Le Yan flicked the white beard on his cheeks, and under his white eyebrows, a pair of eyes glared at Lin Fanglong angrily, "Could it be that you think I will deliberately give Lin Miao a low score?" ”
Lin Fanglong lowered his eyes, although he didn't say anything, his expression seemed to say: Of course.
"Humph! I'm always called Hanako is not so shameless, as a food-loving person, if you can't fairly evaluate food, what qualifications do you have to say that you are the world's number one glutton? Elder Le Yan said this, as if he was saying it to everyone, and as if he was saying it to himself, and in the end, he couldn't help but get angry. glared at Lin Fanglong fiercely again, and shouted in his mouth, "Okay, good!" I'm not a judge anymore, whoever loves to be should go! Go to whoever you can trust, don't look for me anyway. After saying that, he snorted and prepared to walk out of the back kitchen, go to the back hall to sit and wait for food.
When Lin Fanglong saw this situation, he knew that he had provoked this great elder, so he hurriedly apologized, "Elder Leyan, you misunderstood what I meant, I am saying that it is really hard for you to be a judge alone, and you need someone to beat your back and pinch your legs." After speaking, he leaned up flatteringly and pinched Le Yan's shoulder.
Le Yan, who was still angry just now, was pressed on the shoulder twice by Lin Fanglong at this time, and suddenly felt comfortable. He stroked his beard with a smile, his eyes slightly closed, and kept nodding his head, "Well, that's pretty much it!" ”
Lin Miao covered her mouth lightly and smiled, this Leyan is really a child's temper, like an old naughty boy. As the saying goes, the older this person is, the more like a child becomes.
Everyone in the back kitchen looked at Le Yan and Lin Fanglong, one closed their eyes in enjoyment, and kept nodding their heads; A tired straight grimace kept massaging Le Yan.
After about a cup of tea, Le Yan opened his eyes leisurely as if he had finished enjoying it, and found that everyone was looking at him, and he was stunned, "What?" Haven't you started yet? ”
Lin Miao and Jia Linglong glanced at each other, and they both felt a black line.
Jia Linglong coughed lightly, cleared her throat, reached out to tie the apron, and then pulled the hair of her sideburns, "Miss Lin, let's start." ”
Lin Miao nodded, and quickly stood on the edge of a stove.
I saw that both sides began to prepare the ingredients neatly. Jia Linglong spread a whole chicken flat on the cutting board, raised the knife in her hand, and quickly chopped it into chicken nuggets of moderate size. Lin Miao took a bowl of fine rice wine, used a fine colander to filter out the floating rice and impurities in it, and repeated several times until there was only clear white wine left in the bowl, without any impurities.
Then, Lin Miao selects the most red and complete dried chili peppers, white and plump whole garlic, and golden and spicy ginger.
Over there, Jia Linglong had already set up a pot on the fire, boiled the water, and blanched the fresh chicken pieces to remove the blood stains.
Lin Miao was still carefully preparing soy sauce, rock sugar, and the nine-story tower.
Jia Linglong has washed the pot again, put oil in the pot, when it is hot, add sesame oil to it, and when the oil temperature is 60% hot, add ginger slices, garlic, and dried red pepper and stir-fry until fragrant. As soon as the fragrance came out, it immediately overflowed the entire back kitchen, and everyone let out a cry of admiration and greedily inhaled the aroma with their noses.
Here, Lin Miao's various ingredients were ready, and she reached out to the basket on the side, wanting to take a slaughtered whole chicken and chop it into chicken pieces.
"Ahh As soon as she put her hand into the basket, there was a heart-piercing pain in her fingers, which made her retract her hand.
