Chapter 7: Announcing the Name of the Dish

There is no earthy smell and a fresh fragrance.

As a very experienced chef, just by smelling the smell, he can immediately judge that this lotus root slice is really cooked.

So he put it in his mouth and took a bite, clicking......

Hey, how can it be so crisp, since it is ripe, how can it still maintain the crispness of raw lotus root?

Chew carefully, the taste is unique, and it is really as Lao Liu said, very delicious.

Zhang Laocai sandwiched another piece and put it in his mouth, well, this taste is so wonderful.

Huh, this salty?

How is it possible, Zhang Laocai was shocked again, this lotus root, in addition to the fragrant and sweet taste, does not have any peculiar smell, how is this possible.

Others may not pay attention, but he is a chef, and he noticed this detail at once, the salt added to this lotus root is actually the best fine salt, only this high-quality refined salt, there will be no impurities and peculiar smell to affect the taste of food.

It's too extravagant, a small plate of lotus root slices, and it actually puts such a precious high-grade refined salt.

Zhang Laocai was a little trembling, he looked up at Li Chu who was leisurely, and then buried his head in eating up the lotus root slices one by one.

After eating, he didn't say anything, kept his face calm, and squeezed out of the crowd directly.

"Shopkeeper Zhang, hey, you...... Don't go, you haven't said what it tastes like. ”

Li Chu shouted from behind, and Zhang Laocai left quickly without looking back.

Daddy, this is.

After saying that you will tell everyone the result after tasting it, what does your gloomy face mean, is it not delicious?

Li Chuke noticed the expression of enjoyment and surprise on this guy when he was eating just now, you are now leaving without saying a word with a calm face, what is this, what do you make the group of onlookers think?

Isn't this a pit for me!

Li Chu really wanted to blast this guy into the sky with a tank shot.

It's really TM insidious, I just suffered a dark loss the day before yesterday, and today I was yin by this old guy again.

Li Chu looked at the crowd of onlookers, they were also stunned, and they couldn't understand Zhang Laocai's trouble, is this delicious, or is it not delicious?

Li Chu didn't bother to get angry with Zhang Laocai, and in addition to improving his life, he was clearly targeting him, and it was understandable that he was doing so.

The reason why stir-fried vegetables have not been discovered is mainly because there is no thin iron pot.

The porcelain pot made of ceramics is slow to heat, low heat conduction, and the heat volatilizes quickly because of the thickness, and the fire is also an important reason.

Lack of firepower!

This is also the reason why Li Chu wants to engage in honeycomb coal, in addition to making the coal resistant to burning, it is to increase the firepower.

Moreover, in ancient times, there was no vegetable oil, relying on animal fat alone, the heat resistance is not as good as vegetable oil, and if many factors are added together, it will lead to the dish being fried in a porcelain pot, and it will not be cooked at all.

Or it will take a long time to fry before it is cooked, and the taste will become very poor, so it is better to boil.

The thin iron pot is thin, high heat conduction, and fast heating, because it is made of iron, the heat loss is also slow, coupled with the strengthening of firepower, so that the dishes can be quickly heated and fried, and the taste will not be spoiled because it is fried for too long.

With the current refining process of the Song Dynasty, to create a thin iron pot, some old blacksmiths should be able to get it, but no one has thought of this aspect for a while.

Of course, Li Chu will not break the mystery of this now, he still wants to rely on this line of development to develop.

……

The young man in purple rode into Rufen Town on a tall horse, and the rush of several hours in the morning made him a little tired.

The young man called to the carriage behind him, "Grandfather, it's time to come to Rufen Town." ”

"Okay, I got it"

The old man in the car lifted the curtain of the car window a lot, and after sitting for so long, the air in the car was a little stuffy.

After so many years of traveling north and south, the old man can't remember how many times he has passed here, looking at the scenery outside the window, the old man remembers the scene when he was young, and followed his father to pass by here.

……

Li Chu sat on the chair, and the iron spoon was thrown aside by him.

Ah Xiu stood behind him, and Li Chu clearly felt that Ah Xiu was pinching his clothes hard.

Yang Cheng took A-Ning to the river to play, and when he was washing vegetables before, he saw an unmanned boat docked by the river, and two guys were bouncing on it.

On the side of the street, this group of neighbors is still standing and watching, looking like they are watching the excitement.

It was the footmen who were passing by, and a few curious people came in with their heads sticking out their heads, but they just glanced at it, and then continued on their way.

Time passed like this, minute by minute, and the people who watched the excitement changed again, the previous wave of people were called home for dinner, and the new group of onlookers who watched the excitement no longer came up to order.

Li Chu is not in a hurry, new things always have a certain adaptation period.

Looking at the sky, it was far into the afternoon, and he walked to the river and called Yang Cheng and A Ning back.

"Are you two hungry?"

A Ning nodded, Yang Cheng didn't speak, but his eyes kept staring at the food next to him and couldn't take his eyes off.

"Then let's eat it ourselves."

The rice cooked in the pressure cooker for Uncle Liu was a little cold, so he added some water and stirred, covered the pot and put it on the fire again. Then at the dish, I chose a large eggplant and cut a slice of winter melon.

There isn't much meat, it's all used to cook for customers, and Ah Xiu definitely doesn't want to eat it.

There were two vegetarian dishes at noon today, Li Chu cut the eggplant, soaked it in a wooden basin filled with water, sprinkled some salt in the water, and was about to cut the winter melon when someone came to the stall.

Dressed in a gray shirt with many patches, he looks like a hanger, about the same age as Li Chu, called Luo Wen, this guy often mixes in gambling houses, and is a gambling friend that the original body met in the gambling house.

Rowan was holding a dozen or so small flat coins in his hand, and it seemed that he had won.

He was not polite, he sat down directly on the table, slapped all the money in his hand on the table, and said proudly: "Xiao Chu, I heard that you opened a restaurant, it just so happens that my brother is in good luck today, and he won, don't say that my brother didn't support you, I put the money here, hurry up and give my brother a bowl of boiled meat." ”

Ah Xiu glanced at Li Chu.

Li Chu squinted his eyes, in the memory of his original body, it seemed that he had just fought with this guy a few days before he got married, because this guy won a few dollars from his original body, and he was seen.

This guy didn't win, and ran away after leaving some cruel words.

Li Chu walked over, smiled, and pushed back the money on the table to Luo Wen.

Ten dollars, still want to eat a bowl of boiled meat?

Don't talk about it far away, let's just say that in the old Cai's hotel, a bowl of boiled meat costs 140 yuan, 10 yuan, this is taking care of his younger brother's business?

According to his birthday, this Luo Wen is younger than Li Chu, and he has an elder brother, hehe.

A person who didn't deal with it in the first place, Li Chu didn't bother to take care of such a rammer.

"There is no cooked meat in this store, although there are many meat dishes, among which the lowest price is two hundred Wen, brother, these ten Wen, you better go to the gambling house and roll around, maybe it will be doubled."

Two hundred texts?

Before Rowan could react, the crowd of people who watched the excitement blew up.

An adult man, who goes out to work, earns only 100 wen a day, and even more so only 20 or 30 wen a day, and this meat dish costs 200 wen, which is higher than Zhang Laocai's restaurant.

Black!

It's so dark!

Originally, among the crowd watching the show, there were still a few who wanted to try it in the past, but as soon as the price was reported, everyone was discouraged.

Actually, to be honest, after seeing the two hands that Li Chu just revealed, everyone no longer has the idea that Xiao Chu can cook, and no one thinks that he is still singing a big opera.

As soon as the new perception arose, it was doused on the spot by this price.

Syllable!

Luo Wen's face turned pale, and he raised his hand and slapped it on the table, the table shook for a while, and a few small coins fell to the ground.

"Brother is giving you a cheer, this is to give you face, you don't know what to do, you are such a restaurant, you want to invite your brother, but my brother has not come back, a small bowl of boiled meat, I dare to ask for 200 Wen, and my brother will give you 15 Wen, which is already a big reward."

"The price is clearly marked, if you love to eat or not, the store refuses to take credit."

This Rowan is a very strong rammer, at most he shouts a few times, and he is the one who fights with him.

"You ......"

Luo Wen angrily pointed at Li Chu, it can be seen that Li Chu looks tough and refuses to eat, and after a while, he sat down with a deflated ball, and then carefully picked up the small money on the table and scattered on the ground, and ran away.

I was not embarrassed, so I had to keep my head down and leave quickly, and just returned to the street, and before I had taken a few steps, I crashed into a moving carriage.

Unfortunately, the place where Rowan hit happened to be a protruding iron nail on the wheel of the car, and the wheel was still turning, and the head was broken in an instant, and blood flowed out.

Rowan fainted directly.

The carriage stopped, and the young man in purple saw that something was wrong, so he immediately got off the horse and came over to check, and when he saw Luo Wen who fell to the ground, he was shocked, and quickly helped Luo Wen up, took out a handkerchief from his arms and gently wiped the wound.

The old man in the car also got down, saw the situation, frowned, hurriedly came over, grabbed Rowan's sleeve, touched his pulse, and after half a ring, he observed Rowan's wound again, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay, it's just a little bit of a skin."

"Ah Fu, you send this little brother to the town's medical hall to be bandaged."

……

The lowest price of meat dishes is 200 Wen, and Li Chu also has his own ideas.

Rufen Town belongs to the official road town, and the town itself is not wealthy, and the consumption level and ability are limited.

Therefore, Li Chu's primary target is the businessmen who come and go from the south to the north, first of all, these businessmen have a large flow of customers, and secondly, which one of the businessmen is short of money?

Two hundred wen is expensive for the people who make a living from farming, but for this group of people, it is just a piece of cake.

The key is whether or not you can retain people, which is the first priority.

For this group of neighbors who gathered around to watch the excitement, Li Chu didn't care very much about them coming here to eat. But it's not good if there are too many people, and the street is surrounded by merchants, and the merchants passing by the street can't see this side.

We have to think of a way to attract all the merchants passing by.

Pregnant!

Li Chu stood back by the stove and drank saliva to moisten his throat.

When the crowd of onlookers saw Li Chu's posture, they seemed to want to say something, and they all looked at each other.

"Ahem."

Li Chu tore his throat apart and sang loudly:

"Steamed lamb, steamed bear's paw, steamed deer tail, roasted duck, roasted chicken, roasted goose, roasted pig, roasted duck, sauced chicken, bacon, pine flower, small belly, sauced meat, sausage, assorted crisp plate, smoked chicken white face, steamed eight-treasure pig, Jiangmi stuffed duck, canned pheasant, canned quail, braised, braised goose, pheasant, rabbit breast, python, whitebait, steamed hash horse, braised duck kidney, braised duck strips, mixed waist silk, yellow heart tube, braised white eel, braised yellow eel, bean drum abalone, pot roasted carp, braised soft-shelled turtle, caught fried carp, caught fried prawns, Soft-fried tenderloin, soft-fried chicken, assorted sausages, boiled jackdaws, spicy oil rolls, boiled fresh mushrooms, boiled fish breasts, boiled fish belly, boiled fish fillets, vinegared pork slices, boiled three fresh children, boiled pigeon eggs, boiled white mushrooms, boiled pieces, fried silver silk, boiled saury, steamed ham, fried white shrimp, boiled green clams, fried noodle fish, boiled bamboo shoots, hibiscus swallow vegetables, fried shrimp, boiled waist flowers, braised sea cucumbers, fried hoof tendons, pot roasted sea cucumbers, pot roasted cabbage, dish fungus, fried liver tips, osmanthus wings, fried poultry ......"

Onlookers: "......"

Ah Xiu: "......"

Yang Cheng and A Ning were dumbfounded......
