Chapter 7 "Foodie" Cook
Under the leadership of Uncle Jiu, Qin Han came to Yaxing in the west of the city.
"Uncle, this is an official tooth of our Anping, and the price introduced in it is also fair." Uncle Nine pointed to an antique attic in front of him and said.
Unlike the talent market that Qin Han had seen in his previous life, it was not as crowded and noisy as Qin Han thought, but it was very quiet. When I walked in the door, I saw a chubby man coming out, a middle-aged man with kind eyebrows, small sesame eyes, a mustache, a shy belly, a proper rich businessman.
"Yo, this son, on the eighth day of next week, I don't know why I came to the shop." Zhou Ba arched his hand to Qin Han, squinted his eyes and looked Qin Han's clothes up and down, waved his hand, and stopped the guy who was coming to serve tea.
Feeling Zhou Ba's gaze, Qin Han frowned. He replied, "Shopkeeper Zhou, I want to recruit a few guys to help." ”
"Recruit a guy, it's easy to say, I don't know if the son needs to run errands or the female envoy in the family." Zhou Ba rubbed his hands and said.
"I don't know if there are any women with acceptable faces who can accept tea and water in the restaurant, a younger female envoy, a cook, a guy who works in a room, and an errand boy." Qin Han originally planned to cook by himself, but he couldn't always do it by himself, so he had better recruit a cook to teach some modern talents. For cooking, Qin Han usually likes to cook, but it's okay to cook for his own family, if he wants Qin Han to be a restaurant chef and guard the stove, Qin Han is not happy to be killed.
Zhou Ba rubbed his chin, thought for a while, and said: "Everything else is easy to say, I can introduce it to Gongzi now, cook, Gongzi also knows that no one wants to do it in the ninth-rate industry." ”
"Then forget it, the rest will be bothered by the shopkeeper." There is really no way to forget about the cook, the big deal is to train in the future, and I will work for a few days by myself.
Zhou Ba turned around and explained a few words to the guy, and after a while, the guy walked up with three people.
The two young men in Tsing Yi, although they are a little thin, are more energetic. A little maid who still has some baby fat, maybe a little shy, keeps her face red and lowers her head slightly. The three of them don't look very old, about seventeen or eighteen years old.
"I wonder if Childe is satisfied?" Zhou Ba looked at Qin Han and asked.
Since there is no cook, Qin Han does not have high requirements for others. "Well, thank you Shopkeeper Zhou." Qin Han arched his hand.
Shopkeeper Zhou smiled even better, "It's good that the son is satisfied, then sign the contract documents, by the way, the son still needs to pay one or two silver intermediary money." Hey. “
Qin Han signed the paperwork, handed over the silver, and walked out with Uncle Nine with someone.
"Childe, go slowly, don't send it, hehe." Zhou Ba shook the silver, touched the mustache, and said with a smile.
"Swallowing gold in the sleeve is as wonderful as a fairy, the spirit finger moves a full number, and the priceless treasure is learned, and it is not passed on without a bosom friend. One or two silver, it's really black, this is still an official tooth, if this is a private tooth...... Hey, what a gold-eating beast. Walking out of the door, Qin Han said to Uncle Nine with a painful face.
Compared to Qin Han's pain, Uncle Nine is still the same, "Uncle, this price is fair." ”
Qin Han shook his head and said. "Hey, forget it, don't think about it, let's go."
……
"Get out, next time I see you, hit it once, get out of here."
"Stinky beggar, die far away, eat the overlord's meal, and beat you to death next time."
"Who is here to eat the overlord meal, let me tell you that I call it food identification, help your family find faults, you look at your crucian carp soup, it can't even be stewed milky white, really, your chef doesn't know how to fry it first, isn't it, your chef won't even know how to do stir-frying." Gong Zisong patted his body, dug his nose with his fingers and flicked towards the restaurant, muttering.
"Get out, don't leave yet." The restaurant guy waved his fist at Gong Zisong.
Qin Han walked back to Rujia, and as soon as he arrived at the restaurant diagonally opposite, he saw a quarrel in front of him. Qin Han walked in and saw the beggar in front of him, Qin Han's eyes widened instantly, "High, high, high." ”
The beggar in front of Qin Han was curly and scattered, like a chicken nest, the black coat on his body was tattered, full of holes, barefoot, he was brushing it off with his hands, and the hair in front of him was scattered. Behind his hair is a square face of vicissitudes, if he hadn't already known that this was the Jin Kingdom, Qin Han would almost have thought that he had crossed into the myth of the TV series.
"Eh, this son, what kind of waist is the high waist, I only know the lamb waist and pig waist, if you want to talk about the waist, the lamb kidney is the most delicious, whether it is roasted lamb kidney or stir-fried, it has its unique taste. After this stir-fried lamb loin is cut, it must be soaked in Shaoxing's rice wine to remove the fishy smell, and not destroy the original taste, hot pot grain and oil, green onion and garlic stir-fry, lamb loin under the pot, Zrazla's sound is the most wonderful, it is best to put some dogwood, the slight spicy taste plus the taste of the lamb loin is really delicious in the world. The lamb loin also nourishes the kidney qi, benefits the essence, and is indeed worthy of the taste of the world. Gong Zisong licked his lips, his eyes full of satisfaction.
Qin Han swallowed his saliva and looked at the "high magnanimity" in front of him as if he had obtained a treasure. "This tall, uh, isn't this boy able to cook? And you know how to stir-fry? "Qin Han has already learned from Uncle Jiu that it is not easy to find a cook who can stir-fry, and I don't know which restaurant this person was kicked out of or the imperial chef in the palace, and I don't know why he fell here.
Gong Zisong arched his hand to Qin Han and said. "This brother is polite, in Xia Gongzi Song, this way of cooking, I really love it, but ordinary people don't look down on it." Gong Zisong shook his head and put down his nose-picking hand.
Eh, listening to Gong Zisong's serious words, not serious actions at all, the corners of Qin Han's mouth twitched. "Childe Song? You are Gongzi Song! Hearing the name of Gong Zisong, Qin Han was slightly surprised, and then patted his head again, Gongzi Song was from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
Qin Han arched his hand, "Brother Gong is polite, in Qin Han, there is a restaurant under Qin Han that happens to lack a person in charge of the kitchen, I don't know if Brother Gong is willing to come to the kitchen." The price is negotiable. ”
Gong Zisong's eyes widened, "You want to ask me to be in charge of the kitchen?" ”
"Exactly."
"Are you sure? I don't want to be in charge of cooking. ”
"There are many capable people who have some habits, and I understand Brother Gong below." Qin Han sent a horse.
"Hehe, Brother Qin has a vision, what kind of salary is easy to say, just take care of food and housing." Gong Zisong said with a heroic smile, he was very useful to Qin Han's words.
"Then brother, let's go down there."
……
It's been almost a day of tossing and going, and the sun is about to set. The wooden wedge made by Old Man Sun had already been delivered at noon. Looking at the wooden wedge that was similar to the one in his mind, Qin Han instantly lost the heart to eat and feed.
"Uncle Nine, you take them to the back kitchen to cook something to eat first, I'll take a look at this first." Qin Han said to the Ninth Uncle. "By the way, leave me a pot, I'll be useful."
Qin Han carried a bag of rapeseed to the back kitchen, ready to fry it.
"Brother Qin, what do you want to eat, do you need to help?" As soon as Gong Zisong heard that Qin Han wanted to use the pot, he asked with great interest.
"No, no, cooking will be more enjoyable with it." Qin Han said.
"In that case, then I'll help you make a fire. Brother Qin. After saying this, Gong Zisong ran under the stove to make a fire.
Qin Han put the rapeseed into the steamer, and after steaming almost, when the pot was hot, Qin Han put the rapeseed into the pot and added a little water, and kept stir-frying. Qin Han still remembered watching Jackie Chan's "Big Soldier and Little General" before, Jackie Chan sang a rape flower, the flower field in the MV is particularly beautiful, Qin Han also went to it specially, and at that time I also saw some people over there fried rapeseed, but everyone used a cylinder pot, and after frying, it was directly put into the oil press. After frying for a long time, Qin Han found two wooden boards, scooped some rapeseed and put it on the wooden board, the two templates were sandwiched and rubbed, the rapeseed shell fell off, and the kernels inside had turned dark yellow. Qin Han fished out the rapeseed and put it on the small stone mill used to grind the beans, but fortunately, the stone mill was not big, and Qin Han and Gong Zisong could push it.
After crushing, Qin Han used a sieve to sieve out the fine, coarse regrinding, and steamed the fine one in the pot once. After steaming, the dough is formed into a cake shape and placed in a wooden wedge to squeeze the oil.
The whole oil squeezing wasted Qin Han and Gong Zisong Lao Dadzi, especially when using wooden wedges, the two of them were not familiar with it, and they were tired and almost collapsed. It took a long time to waste energy, and the sky was completely dark, before a pot of oil was squeezed out.
"I didn't expect Brother Qin to know how to squeeze oil, Brother Qin is really amazing." Gong Zisong admired.
"Hehe, it's nothing, little skill." Qin Han put down the teacup and said to Gong Zisong.
"Goo, goo."
There was a loud sound in Gong Zisong's stomach. "Brother Qin smiled, he hadn't eaten after a busy day."
"It just so happens that I'm hungry too, but I've made some good things and the oil is squeezed, so I'll ask Brother Gong to try my craft." Qin Han thought of the cumin he had gotten, and he just tasted what it tasted like.
Qin Han sliced the mutton, added egg whites, put in seasonings, added some flour to grasp and marinate, cut the onions and garlic, and rubbed some fennel seeds (cumin), the materials in this era are really frequent, and if you want to get some chili peppers, you have to go to the Americas 108,000 miles away, but fortunately, dogwood can be used instead.
Looking at the fennel seeds that Qin Han rubbed, Gong Zisong was confused for a while, "Brother Qin, what are these fennel seeds for?" ”
"Hehe, Brother Gong, wait a moment, you'll know in a while." Qin Han sold it.
Heat the oil, add the mutton slices, stir-fry and change color, leave the bottom oil in the pot, stir-fry the green onion and garlic, add sesame seeds, cumin, stir-fry until fragrant, put in the mutton slices, and stir-fry the cut dogwood in the pot for a while. The whole smell is spreading from the kitchen.
"This, Brother Qin, this, I admire, it's the first time I've seen someone use fennel seeds like this." Gong Zisong smelled the fragrance and swallowed his saliva.
"Brother Gong, try it?"
"Taste, taste."
"The mutton is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, put it in this, and then, it has another taste. Coupled with the spicy taste of dogwood, it is really fragrant. Gong Zisong took a large slice and put it in his mouth to taste it.
"At this time, there is a big bowl of white rice missing." Thinking of the taste of cumin mutton soup soaked in white rice, Qin Han hated to take a big bite.
……
After Qin Han and Gong Zisong finished eating, they each got a cup of tea to relieve the oiliness.
"By the way, Brother Gong, the shop will open tomorrow, and I still need Brother Gong's help, in addition, I still have some fresh dishes here, and I will teach Brother Gong tomorrow." Qin Han put down the teacup and said to Gong Zisong.
"If a chef has any good dish, he must hide the secret recipe, but I didn't expect Brother Qin to be willing to teach it. Admire, admire. Gong Zisong shook his head and said.
"Hehe, Brother Gong is polite, the hour is not early, let's rest separately. This was originally an inn, and there are many guest rooms, so just pick one at random. "Qin Han has been busy for a day, and he really can't stand it.
Upstairs, Uncle Huang Jiu heard the conversation between Qin Han and the others, and smiled approvingly.
