Chapter 66: The Big Cauldron

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

The group of children hadn't come back yet, but the stove had been set up first.

Li Qi was not idle, he first made a large pot full of water boiled.

When Bai Qiannuo saw it, she was very curious, she had never seen it before, and she needed so much water to make a dish.

Don't talk about her, even Li Qi hasn't seen it, of course he boils water not for cooking, but for disinfection.

As a chef from the 21st century, he naturally knows the importance of hygiene.

Li Qi first asked people to clean all the cooking utensils with boiling water, and because he was originally going to let these ladies go to the Drunken Immortal House to clean up, so when they were cleaning the dishes and chopsticks, Li Qi has been guiding them by his side, instilling in them the concept and importance of hygiene.

Although those big ladies didn't understand much, they didn't dare to be sloppy in front of Li Qi, and they did what Li Qi said.

Bai Qiannuo stood aside, although she didn't go over to help, but she was very shocked by Li Qi's ideas, and of course, she also learned a lot of knowledge from them.

However, Xing'er seemed to think that Li Qi spent so much effort washing the dishes and made a little fuss, and stood aside with a sneering look.

After all the cooking utensils had been disinfected, the group of children came back with the ingredients that Li Qi had ordered them to buy, and their faces were full of excitement.

Li Qi checked them all and found that only a few children did not buy them according to the catties on the rags, and the rest did very well, which is quite good, which is enough to prove that these children's intelligence is not very bad, and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

Li Qi was very pleased with this, praised them fiercely, and then let them rest and recognize a few more words casually.

After arranging a qiē, Li Qi picked up the kitchen knife that Zheng Huofu had just sharpened and was ready to start.

Once Li Qi took the kitchen knife, it was definitely the time when he was the most serious, and everyone seemed to be infected by the meticulous expression on his face, standing aside, not even daring to breathe.

I have to say that serious men are the most attractive.

Even Bai Qiannuo felt that Li Qi at this moment was like two people from his usual life.

In the blink of an eye, Li Qi had cut all the dishes and put them in bowls.

Whether it is pork or tofu and vegetables, they are all cut into thin slices, and the size is basically the same.

That Zheng Huofu was originally also a cook, just from the knife work, he knew that his cooking skills could not be compared with Li Qi at all, and he secretly admired it in his heart.

Everyone saw that Li Qi had bought so many dishes and came back, although there was less meat, but it was enough to make a few dishes, but when they saw Li Qi take out a part of each ingredient and make a pot together, they were all stunned.

Even the well-informed Bai Qiannuo had never seen such a practice.

In fact, the dishes made by Li Qi are also big pot dishes.

A dish that was very cheap in the minds of the people of later generations.

But in Li Qi's mind, this big pot dish is a dish that is very worth studying.

To make a big pot dish, in fact, it does not require too many gorgeous skills, but the requirements for basic skills are very strict, the first thing to study is a chef's understanding of food, although the big pot dish is to put a lot of dishes together to fry, but can not be combined at will, must be carefully studied; The second is the knife work, the big pot dish should not be cut too thick and too big, otherwise so many dishes are mixed together and fried, one is difficult to cook thoroughly, and the other is that various foods can not be effectively borrowed from each other; Finally, there is the even distribution of seasonings, which is also the most difficult point, because the variety and quantity of dishes are so large, it is not easy to take care of them, even Richie is difficult to achieve perfection.

Like the big pot dishes made by the master chefs of those school cafeterias, it is simply an insult to the big pot dishes, the clear soup is watery, tasteless, and some people put more gutter oil than water in order to make the dishes more tasteful, and after eating a meal, the bowl is full of black oil and water, can this be delicious?

It can really compete with pig food.

It's no wonder that many students would rather eat egg fried rice than that big pot dish.

Although the big pot dish cannot be compared with abalone fin belly, it is a dish that is very in line with the taste of the public, after all, not everyone can eat abalone fin belly at once. And the nutritional value of the big pot dish is also much higher than most dishes, at least it is very comprehensive.

Even if it is a dish, Li Qi has fried it three times, after all, there are too many dishes, if you pour them all into the pot at one time, there is no room for frying.

After the first two dishes were fried, he first scooped a bowl for each of the ladies and children, and let them eat first.

Because the steamed buns ordered by Bai Qiannuo earlier had been delivered when Li Qi was stir-frying, those children squatted in the corner, three or four big steamed buns per person, and ate them together with the big pot dishes.

The big men who haven't eaten it on the side are almost drooling.

However, Li Qi did not make them wait long, and after a while, the last big pot dish was baked.

Li Qi didn't ask them to bring bowls, but directly beckoned everyone to sit around the pot, and directly used chopsticks to put them in the pot.

A big pot dish, without this pot, can it still be called a big pot dish?

Since it was already past the time to eat at this time, these old men were already so hungry that their eyes were dizzy, and when they heard that they could eat, they rushed to put vegetables in the pot, regardless of whether it was garlic or meat, and just stuffed it into their mouths.

For this big pot dish, it is naturally a lot of praise.

Bai Qiannuo sat next to Li Qi, picked up a piece of green vegetables and put it in her mouth, after tasting it, although it was far less shocking than the "eyebrows and smiles" last night, she didn't expect that even such a small leaf would become so delicious after Li Qi's hand, and asked Li Qi: "Li Gongzi, what is the name of this dish?" ”

Li Qi smiled: "Big pot dishes." A very earthy name. ”

"Cauldron?"

Bai Qiannuo nodded slightly and said, "It's also appropriate." Is this big pot dish also new to you? ”

"Well, this --- isn't new, but I didn't do it in the past because I didn't have this environment." Li Qi shook his head and said.

Bai Qiannuo couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that Sister Wang can have your help, it's really a blessing!" ”

Although in her heart, Li Qi's character is really not good, and it is money when she opens her mouth and closes her mouth, but this cooking skill, it is really nothing to say.

Li Qi smiled and said: "It's a great blessing, the next time you go to talk to your wife, don't praise me too perfectly." ”

Regarding Li Qi's "modesty", Bai Qiannuo was really a little crying and laughing, shaking his head and saying nothing.

The carpenter on the side smashed it a few times, and said to Li Qi unsatisfied: "Li Gongzi, you really have nothing to say about this big --- and big pot dish, this is definitely the most delicious dish I have ever eaten in my life." ”

"Of course, Li Gongzi is no one, and it is really a blessing to be able to eat the dishes he cooks."

Li Qi saw that the more they talked, the more exaggerated they became, and hurriedly stopped: "I'm not that powerful, you better eat quickly." ”

"Yes, yes, yes."

"It would be nice to have a little more wine." Carpenter Tian suddenly shook his head and sighed. It seems that he is addicted to alcohol.

Bai Qiannuo was slightly stunned, and then remembered that Li Qifang didn't let people buy wine, in the Northern Song Dynasty, almost everyone was good at this bite, and wine was naturally indispensable on the dinner table, so he hurriedly said: "Xing'er, you go outside and see if you can get some wine." ”

"No need."

Li Qi stretched out his hand and motioned for Xing'er not to be busy going first, and then said to Tian Carpenter: "You have to go to the store with me later, and this wine will be free." ”

It's not loud, but it doesn't allow anyone to question it.

Bai Qiannuo was stunned for a moment, and then glanced at Xing'er and asked her not to go.

Carpenter Tian also noticed that Li Qi's tone was full of displeasure, his old face turned red, and he hurriedly admitted his mistake to Li Qi.

Li Qi smiled and said it didn't matter, but he was still a little unhappy in his heart, and now whether he could fill his stomach was still a problem, so he thought about asking for wine, you are really my uncle.

Li Qi is not reluctant to pay for this drink, but everything has to have a degree, what you want to do, you have to see what the surrounding environment is, besides, he just told Tian Carpenter and his staff, and he will go to the Drunken Immortal Residence with him in the afternoon. Wait a minute, if Wu Furong sees that he is coming with a group of drunks again, he can't think that these drunks are his relatives.

After eating, after a little rest, Li Qi began to teach the group of children some service etiquette beyond the times.

Obviously, he wants to build Zuixianju into a modern restaurant.

On this point, Li Qi had planned to do this for a long time, he didn't want to be like Jade Xuan, seven or eight bartenders, like headless flies, running around and roaring at everything, if it was in their time, no matter how delicious the food in your store was, no customers would want to come.

For a restaurant, first-class service is essential.

Li Qi first taught them some knowledge about grooming etiquette, such as smiling, the tone of voice, and the demeanor of treating guests.

Then they were taught a few movements in terms of manners, standing, sitting, and a few hand gestures.

Bai Qiannuo's master and servant couldn't help but laugh when they first saw Li Qi's peculiar postures, but when they saw the back, they couldn't laugh anymore, some were just shocked, if you use a modern word to describe this shock, it is 'professional'.
