Chapter 151: Seven Pond Fish
Xu Ronghua's pretty little face is as red as a ripe persimmon at the moment.
She bit her lower lip tightly, as if to control her emotions.
didn't expect an unintentional word, but Wen Xiuyi really let her go to work.
Looking at this appearance, Qiduo is really worried that she will cry.
Squinted at Wen Xiuyi, he disagreed with his approach and thought it was too much.
Xu Ronghua is just in love with you, no matter what you think in your heart, you can't force her so much and embarrass her.
Qi Duo saw that he couldn't get back the lotus root in Wen Xiuyi's hand, so he had to choose another three lotus roots, and then prepared to wash them, but he didn't want to play these tricks with them.
"I'll wash!" Xu Ronghua bit his teeth and took the small basket containing lotus root from Wen Xiuyi's hand.
Wen Xiuyi bowed his head slightly.
"Get out of the way." Xu Ronghua pushed the seven flowers who were about to take a step with the lotus root.
She was angry in her heart, and she didn't dare to attack Wen Xiuyi, but she sprinkled it on Qiduo's body.
Under the anger, her strength was really not small, Qiduo was too late, and she was pushed back several steps, just blocked by the desk behind her, otherwise, she really fell.
But his waist was on the hard table, and there was a faint pain.
Qiduo frowned a little unhappily, what are you doing, and her sympathy for Xu Ronghua suddenly disappeared.
Looking at Wen Xiuyi, Qiduo said, "Young Master Wen, the kitchen is very dirty, it's really not suitable for you to stay here." ”
The tone was already a little displeased.
Wen Xiuyi put his hands behind his back, his phoenix eyes drooped, and his thin lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something.
But he didn't say anything after all, just nodded. "Good. If you have something, just tell Miss Xu to do it. ”
Qiduo nodded. Then he turned around and went to work on other things, and he didn't want to pay attention to him anymore, and his back still hurt.
Wen Xiuyi left the kitchen with her hands behind her back.
But before leaving, he walked up to Xu Ronghua and whispered a few words.
Xu Ronghua's complexion turned from red to white.
As soon as Wen Xiuyi left, Xu Ronghua immediately threw the lotus root in his hand to the ground.
The kitchen was not lively at this time, and the movement of the lotus root immediately made everyone sweep their eyes over.
There was obvious disgust in the seven eyes, what a rude young lady.
She didn't pay attention. Continue to cut the lean meat into pieces, then chop it into a puree and use it later to make a lotus root clip.
A handyman walked cautiously over, picked up the broken lotus root from the ground, and cleaned the lotus root residue on the ground.
"Miss Xu, I'll wash it for you." The chefs knew Xu Ronghua's identity, and some people immediately ran over to curry favor.
"Hmph, count you as acquaintances." Xu Ronghua stomped his foot hatefully, left the pool, and let others wash the lotus root for him.
She looked at Qiduo. Silverfang gritted.
'Oooo Raising his chin and said to Qiduo, "Hey, boy, let me ask you, if my brother Yi asks who washed the lotus root later, do you know how to answer Lu Dao?" ”
"I don't know." Qiduo shook his head, but did not look at Xu Ronghua.
She didn't have the time to talk to Xu Rong, she had to make these dishes quickly, I don't know how Daddy's lotus root is selling, I have to go and see.
"Phew, idiot, tell you, if Brother Yi asks, you will say that I washed all the lotus roots, and I have help you do everything, do you know the way?" Xu Ronghua's tone was a little domineering.
"Okay." Qiduo nodded, ignoring her attitude and tone.
She knew that Xu Ronghua, a pampered rich lady, was empty-eyed and superior, and in her eyes, she was a country boy with nothing, reasoning with her and asking for trouble.
Xu Ronghua was very satisfied with Qiduo's obedience, walked out of the kitchen with his hands behind his back, and went to the yard to see the scenery.
Without Xu Ronghua's orders, the chef with his own flexible eyes stepped forward to please and greet him.
The handyman brought the washed lotus root, and Qiduo smiled and thanked him.
After chopping the meat and cleaning her hands, she scraped off the skin of the lotus root, cut off one end of the lotus root, and exposed the lotus root hole, but the lotus root knot cannot be thrown away, and it will be of great use for a while.
But the lotus root at the other end should not be cut off, otherwise, the glutinous rice will be missed after being put in.
Then pour the glutinous rice into all the lotus root holes, while filling, press it with chopsticks, after filling, cover the lotus root that has just been cut back as it is, and fix it on the lotus root body with a thin bamboo stick, try to be tighter, and do not expose the rice inside.
Planing according to the method, seven lotus roots will also be poured with glutinous rice, and then all three sections of lotus root are put into the clay pot, put water over the lotus root, add white sugar and rock sugar, cover the pot, and start to cook on the stove.
It is best not to use an iron pot to cook glutinous rice lotus, otherwise not only the color is not very good-looking, but also the taste will be somewhat affected.
At this time, the flower tea also brewed out of color, red and gorgeous, very beautiful.
Seven flowers selected two sections of crispy lotus root, washed and sliced them.
There are several kinds of lotus root, the color is dark, pink or brown, relatively powdery, suitable for soup and boiling, just like Fangcai's glutinous rice lotus, the choice is the powder lotus, so that the boiled lotus root tastes more noodles.
The lighter color, white or light yellow lotus root, is very crisp and sweet, especially suitable for cold dressing and stir-frying.
Rouge lotus root belongs to cold vegetables, so it is natural to choose this crispy lotus root to make it, and the lotus root tastes fresh and tender, crispy, sweet and fresh.
Qiduo put the cut lotus root slices into the boiling water in the pot, put some salt, and at the same time drip two drops of vinegar to prevent the lotus root from turning black, for a while, immediately scoop up the lotus root after it is broken, put it in a clean basket and drain the water.
Take this opportunity to cut the lotus root needed for fried lotus root into thick slices, and then cut the thick slices in the middle, but do not cut them, and soak them in salt water to prevent them from turning black.
The lotus root slices that had been boiled before had almost been drained, and Qiduo put them into the brewed flower tea, then added some white vinegar, and took them aside, leaving them alone for the time being.
After an hour or two, the snow-white lotus root will turn into a beautiful flower brown.
Of course, if you want a darker color, you need to soak it for a longer time.
The sweet and sour rouge lotus is finished.
At this time, the glutinous rice lotus root that is being cooked in the pot has emitted a sweet lotus root fragrance.
Qiduo adds salt, soy sauce and chives to the minced meat in a bowl and stirs well, then adds the minced meat to the middle of the freshly cut lotus root clip and squeezes it slightly. Let all the lotus root holes fill with the minced meat.
It's a delicate job. Be patient.
Fill all the lotus root clips with the meat. Seven eggs are knocked into a deep, clean basin, stirred well, then add flour and a pinch of salt, add water and make a batter.
Put vegetable oil in another pot, when the oil is boiled to eighty percent hot, Qiduo uses chopsticks to clip the lotus root, first put it in the batter to hang the batter, and then put it into the oil pan to fry.
Fry the lotus root until golden brown. However, it needs to be fried twice to prevent the lotus root from being undercooked.
When there is a 'sizzle' sound in the pot, the aroma begins to spread throughout the kitchen and wafts into the yard.
The flowers of the two peach trees in the precincts have been gone, and the branches are beginning to grow green leaves.
There was a stone table under the peach tree, with snacks and tea, and Xu Ronghua, who was bored, fell asleep on the stone table.
She didn't want to stay in the kitchen very much, but Wen Xiuyi told her when she was leaving, let her always help Qiduo work, and not be lazy.
Qiduo didn't leave her kitchen for a while. She couldn't go.
The warm sunlight shone on her body, making her dizzy. I really couldn't hold it anymore, and I didn't care about the coldness of the stone table, so I slept fragrantly.
Two bees buzzed around her, perhaps mistaken for flowers by their pink clothes.
Xu Ronghua slept soundly, and in the kitchen, the seven flowers had been fried together.
"Here, let's try it." Qiduo pointed to the golden lotus and said to the chefs standing by with a smile.
When she prepares these dishes, she can just let the chefs watch from the sidelines and tell them some details that need to be paid attention to.
In fact, these dishes are not difficult and easy to learn.
The chefs each took a piece of lotus root from their plate and tasted it.
"Well, it's crispy and crispy, it's delicious, I didn't expect the lotus root to be fried and eaten, it's delicious." After tasting it, the chefs nodded their heads one after another.
Qiduo smiled and nodded, "There are many ways to make lotus roots, in addition to what you know on weekdays, there are also these three that I do now, and there are many more, I will tell you now......"
Glutinous rice lotus root takes the longest time to cook, and she took this opportunity to talk about other methods of lotus root, and also encouraged chefs to find ways to innovate and make more tricks.
When the glutinous rice lotus root is finally cooked, Qihua takes them out to cool, uses a clean board and knife, cuts them into slices, puts them in a white porcelain plate, and sprinkles some osmanthus flowers on the lotus root slices.
Then boil the soup of the glutinous rice root in the pot over high heat, stirring while cooking, and cook until it is viscous.
The boiled juice is poured on the glutinous rice lotus, and the osmanthus is hot, and it suddenly exudes a burst of light fragrance, refreshing people's hearts.
The rouge lotus root also turned pink, Qiduo took a white plate, sandwiched some lotus root slices and put them in the dish, and continued to soak the rest.
Thinking that Wen Xiuyi likes spicy food, Qiduo used peanuts, diced lettuce and lotus root together, and added chili peppers to stir-fry to make a kung pao lotus root.
Well, it smells so good!
Smelling the fragrance of chili peppers, Qiduo couldn't help but praise himself.
Put the four plates into the food box, and let the chefs make some rouge lotus root according to the law, which is impregnated today, and will be sold tomorrow, which is delicious and brightly colored, and is very festive.
The cooks went to get busy, and Qiduo took the food box out of the kitchen.
She saw Xu Ronghua sleeping soundly at a glance, smiled, ignored it, and walked directly to Xu Youxuan's study.
In addition to Xu Youxuan and Wen Xiuyi in the study, there are also stewards and stewards Liu.
Steward Liu is the deputy steward of Chunfeng Proud Building, specializing in managing the guys, which is equivalent to managing personnel, and he is the chief steward, and all the deputy stewards are under his control.
Steward Liu has just been promoted to the chief steward of the food city, and he will arrange the relevant matters of the food city in the future.
As the chief steward for the first time, Xu Youxuan was worried that he would not be able to do well in some places, so he asked Steward He to help, and was arranging matters related to the opening of tomorrow to ensure that nothing went wrong.
Seeing Qiduo coming in, Xu Youxuan said with a smile, "Okay, let's eat first, and continue to talk after eating, just listen to the opinion of the seventh brother." ”
He turned his head and shouted to the back of the study, "Xiuyi, come out and eat something good." ”
This study also has an inner room, which is supposed to be a place for rest.
Xu Youxuan was talking to his subordinates outside, and Wen Xiuyi was reading and resting in the inner room, it seems that the relationship between the two is really extraordinary.
Qiduo thought to himself.
Wen Xiuyi, who was dressed in a white robe, walked from the inner room to Shi Shiran with a shallow smile on his face.
Qiduo opened the food box, brought out the dishes, and put the chopsticks aside.
Red, yellow, pink, green, white, the blooming colors have greatly increased everyone's appetite, but there is also the tangy fragrance.
It's just a pity that everyone just took the chopsticks and was about to taste them when there was a sharp knock on the door of the study.
"Who is this, it's really not the right time." He Guan was slightly annoyed, and went to open the door with a smile.
"No, it's the right time, there's something delicious to eat." Xu Youxuan joked with a smile.
The study door was opened, and it was the young man.
"What's in charge, Xiao Qi's father and brother are looking for Xiao Qi's manager, it seems that there is an urgent matter, and they are waiting downstairs." The young man spoke quickly and quickly explained the reason for the knock on the door.
Ah, did something happen to Daddy, Second Sister, and Liulang?
Qiduo's face sank, put down his chopsticks, and didn't even have time to say hello, so he ran out the door. (To be continued......)
