After guessing a few, Zhou Yi suddenly felt that it was not interesting, so he didn't mix it up, watched other people play with great interest, and occasionally bought and distributed it to everyone when he saw something good, and immediately won unanimous praise.

They played until late at night, and then everyone dispersed and went home without mentioning it.

The next day, Shengli Iron and Steel Plant resumed work, although the heating system in Qingshen County is no market, but the people in the neighboring counties have long been staring, Zhou Yi organized a transport team, in the surrounding counties have set up sales points, the production of heating systems through the transport team to sell out.

Zhou Yi doesn't have to worry about these things, Tie Niu is a loyal and fierce general, and it is perfect to be a transport captain. Iron Hammer is upright and meticulous, and it will never go wrong if he supervises the quality of the product. The accounts were handed over to Zhou Min and Zhou Sheng to manage, although the previous tea shop was not well managed, but there was never a problem with the accounts, plus one is his own father and the other is his sister, if they can't believe it, then who else can Zhou Yi trust?

After arranging all this, Zhou Yi felt that he had nothing to do, except for writing "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Dream of Red Mansions", he was going to wander around, and he was about to take the provincial exam, but he was not nervous, this kind of thing was the imperial examination, Ji people have their own natural appearance, others have grown up reading books since childhood, and now this month is temporarily cramming, and may not even remember the "Analects", so he simply let go of his courage to do his own thing, maybe he will drop the answer on his head on the day of the exam?

Of course, it's good to think about this kind of thing, after all, you can't take it too seriously, when one day Huang Yao invited Zhou Yi to his house to eat stews full of dishes, Zhou Yi had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he suddenly had an idea.

Since the Daguan private restaurant is no longer open, why not teach the method of stir-frying? By the way, if you teach a few more dishes, you will definitely be able to earn some money, and you will not be too tired, and the most important thing is that you don't need to pay the capital.

So, in the second issue of "Qing Pao", that is, the fifth day of February in the eighth year of Zhenghe, Zhou Yi published an announcement of accepting apprentices, teaching the exclusive secret recipe for making one hundred and eight private dishes, and the tuition fee for each person is one hundred and eight yuan, which is exactly the same amount of money for one dish. The advertising words are very good, what is better to teach people to fish than to teach people to fish, it is better to be happy alone, what to give back to the society for common prosperity, etc., people are excited and enthusiastic.

The price of one hundred and eight times makes most people who are eager to try lose at the starting line, and many people in small restaurants are defeated, but there are also a few, thinking that as long as they learn the dishes well, they will not worry about no business, so they grit their teeth and raise money to learn. As for those people from big families, one hundred and eight runs is completely stressful for them, and they can take it out casually. Even Su Jiaming sent someone to Zhou Yi to sign up, which shows that Su Jiaming is not only wealthy, but also delicious.

The place where Zhou Yi taught cooking skills was in his backyard, where there was still a stove left over from the time when he made milk tea tarts because of fried tea, and he never had time to dismantle it, but he didn't expect it to come in handy now.

He knew that things like milk tea tarts were very popular among the family, because they belonged to dim sum and were consumed in large quantities. But Zhou Yi has handed over all the business to Zhang Zhong, so naturally he can't pass it on to outsiders, that is to smash his brother's signboard, although he says that there is no treachery or business, but he still has this bit of discipline.

The food in the Song Dynasty was already very rich, basically the home-cooked food was ready, and if Zhou Yi wanted to do it, he could only make what he didn't have now.

In China, there are staple foods and non-staple foods. It is mentioned in the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing" that grains are the staple food, and other meats and vegetables are non-staple foods.

Another example is stir-frying, which is now very common in us, but it is still very rare in Europe.

The basic cooking methods in China before the Six Dynasties were similar to those in Europe now, and there was no stir-fried food until the Song Dynasty, and the folk were not popular, because the seasoning was not rich and could not be stir-fried.

At that time, it was actually very simple when it came to seasoning, especially the meat was not flavorful.

At that time, the main seasoning was soup, which was a bit close to our current soup, but it was very sticky, a bit like our current thickening. At that time, the main seasoning was sauce, so now Japanese and Korean sauce is so important.

In the pre-Qin period, there were 1,200 kinds of sauce practices. Confucius has a very famous saying: "You don't get tired of eating, and you don't get tired of fine." I won't go into much detail in the previous sentence, but in the next sentence, the meat should be cut thin to be delicious, why? Because the meat needs to be dipped in sauce to absorb the flavor.

In ancient times, there were many animal sauces, such as ants, insects, fish, frogs, honeycombs, etc., Zhou Yi never ate this thing, and remembered that he was frightened by the frog sauce with the same color as snot when he just crossed over.

The opening of the museum and the apprenticeship were corresponded by about thirty people, and these thirty people brought Zhou Yi an income of 3,240 yuan, which was already a lot of money.

After a period of popularity, everyone began to burn briquettes when cooking at home, so not long ago, Zhou Yi had a new business, that is, designing a stove for burning briquettes.

Similarly, the stoves in Zhou Yi's yard were all changed to burn briquettes, which has the advantage of a balanced flame and no smoke.

A pure white coat was worn on the person, and it looked clean, and thirty people stood in three rows, and Zhou Yi spoke in front of them.

"In the next month, you must learn to cook at least three dishes every day, otherwise you won't be able to finish learning, and I won't teach anymore after the time passes, so it's all up to you to work hard."

"Moreover, cooking is not only technical work, but also physical work, if you don't have the ability to turn a big spoon, you will go to a pot and put ten catties of pebbles in the pot after school, and if you can't turn it up, you will be unqualified."

Zhou Yi couldn't help but sing the theme song of "Manchu and Han Quanxi".

"And, most importantly, during this time, how can I say that you will do whatever you do, absolutely obey orders, do you hear?"

"I hear you." There are old and young among these people, and their voices are naturally different.

These people's pots and spoons are all brought by themselves, firstly, this can save costs for Zhou Yi and avoid him having to buy a lot of teaching supplies, and secondly, he thinks that everyone has their own habits, and only by using the tools they are most accustomed to can they make the most delicious meals.

On the board, there is a large pile of white lard, which was specially bought on the street today, and the part between the pork skin and lean meat, Zhou Yi called it plate oil.

"To make a good dish, you first need a pot of good oil, which is the key to making my food delicious, because the oil itself is very fragrant, and it tastes better when immersed in the dish. Slice the oil into the pot and boil the inside. ”

As he spoke, he gave a demonstration, cut it into thin slices, and the pot was already heated on the fire, and he put in the oil, and suddenly forced out the shiny oil, and everyone was dumbfounded.

After half an hour of boiling, a pot of lard was baked, and a strange fragrance floated in the whole yard, and everyone couldn't help but sniff.

"It's best to put the oil in a porcelain jar, and when it cools down, the oil will freeze together and become slightly white, so remember to cover it with a lid when you don't need it."

Then he took the remaining pieces of browned oil residue in his hand, remembered the fun of stealing food when he was a child, and said: "This thing is called oil residue, and now it is delicious to dip the sauce while it is hot, you can all try it." ”

After everyone ate it, they really felt crispy and delicious, Zhou Yi said: "Very good, this is the first dish I taught you, oil residue with sauce." ”

There is no doubt that if there is a great chef of the 21st century next to him, he will definitely be angry with him, which is also a dish?

But it is enough to fool these ancient people.

After everyone had tasted it, Zhou Yi smiled and said, "By the way, I forgot to tell you, this oil residue that has just come out of the pot will easily catch fire, so you'd better eat less." ”

So the apprentices, who were only half left on the plates, looked at each other.

For Zhou Yi, teasing these apprentices is a very interesting thing.

"Okay, then I'll teach you to stir-fry, the so-called stir-fry, the biggest secret is the fire, you stew things and cook things, often for a few hours, but stir-fry is not needed, stir-fry is an instantaneous art, the hand should be fast, the action should be numb, if it is late for a while, the dish will be burned and cannot be eaten. You should practice and grasp this degree yourself. ”

The first is stir-frying, although there is no chili pepper will have a lot less flavor, but there are peppercorns, and the kind of sauce they make also has a spicy taste, which can be used directly.

The first dish Zhou Yi taught was braised pork ribs, which was his favorite dish.

After making braised pork ribs, he also made creative home-cooked dishes such as stir-fried vegetables with oil residue, and taught six dishes at once, the ingredients of these dishes are very simple, and the secret of production is the technique of stir-frying. Zhou Yi thought that he had already taught them all the secrets.

So the apprentices went home happily and said that they wanted to make something for their masters. Zhou Yi's face was not very good, he had eaten what everyone fried, and felt that if this kind of thing was taken to those who were used to eating good things, the people who cooked would be killed.

For dinner, the family of four ate Zhou Yi's fried dishes, and the other apprentices' things were given by Zhou Yi to a neighbor who raised pigs not far away.

In the Song Dynasty, because of the relaxation of the curfew policy and the general increase in the money in the people's pockets, the day also changed from two meals to three meals, and some families with better family backgrounds had to go out to listen to dramas and books at night, and sometimes they had to eat a fourth meal when they came home late. Because of this, even in this Qingshen County, there are countless restaurants of all sizes. Zhou Yi even heard that some people don't have a family at home, and eat out three times a day.

With such a habit, if you have a few good dishes and open a restaurant, you won't have to worry about running out of business.
