223 Garlic Roasted Double-Headed Snake
After I returned to Yuanbao Building, Jin Dasco talked to me again. The pressure he is facing now is exactly what I want to fight for: to participate in the Teng family's election to enter Yin City.
Naturally, Jin Dasco was happy to help me get a place in the election, but the only variable was in Donald's pot. He didn't seem to be optimistic about my return, not only did he not talk to me, but he also began to personally guide the cultivation of Ma Xiaostool and Qin Xiaotable, showing how much he attached importance to these two disciples. It seems that he still doesn't worry about me, afraid that I will run away again at a critical moment.
Because I'm no longer a second chef, I don't have many opportunities to get the head of the chef, and a lot of the time I have to fight for it myself. For example, this time tonight, it is a good opportunity!
An old guest was about to break into the Yuanbao Building with a snake in a hurry, but Wang Xiaoer at the door couldn't stop him. He ran into the Yuanbao Building, went straight into the kitchen, threw the snake on the table to show us, and said, "Come, come, come!" I just bought a good thing, you guys hurry up and help me process it, I'm going to eat it! ”
Everyone in the kitchen was startled by him, and when the more timid saw that it was a snake, they immediately avoided it. But when I looked closely, it turned out to be a dead snake, but at the same time it was a two-headed snake!
The two-headed snake has always been rumored to be a bad thing in the world, and whoever sees it will die. In ancient times, there was Gongsun Ao, and he saw a two-headed snake on the road. He said angrily: "Since everyone who sees it must die, then I should die alone!" So he took up his sword and slew the serpent to death.
But Gongsun Ao did not die in the end, and later became the prime minister of Chu, which shows that this kind of rumor cannot be taken seriously. It's just that I didn't expect that this kind of thing would be caught and sold, and there are even people who like to eat it!
After a brief moment of shock, the people in the kitchen covered their noses again. It stinks!
The two-headed snake was not only dead, it seemed to have been dead for a long time, and its body was already somewhat rotten. Moreover, the snake is still wet, I don't know what potion or something it has soaked.
Seeing that we were all in a daze, the old customer urged: "I just bought it from the stall, it's a rarity!" Hurry up and fry it for me! How much processing fee is charged? Just say! ”
Ma Xiaostool's curiosity was quite heavy, and he actually asked the old customer: "What will be the benefit of eating this thing?" ”
"Snake meat is originally used to clear heat and reduce fire, and it is still a two-headed snake." The old guest pointed to his head and said, "You see, I have two very ugly sarcomas on my head, and I want to cut them when I am alive, but I dare not cut them." After you die, it will grow back on its own after being cut, but it annoys me! After eating this two-headed snake, maybe these two tumors will be eliminated! ”
Everyone looked at his head, and it was true. The two sarcomas, one larger and one smaller, are separated from each other, like two horns, which is really ugly.
But it's a problem to process this kind of thing. Jin Dascoo frowned and said: "This guest, usually our Yuanbao Building also often helps guests to process ingredients. But you're not easy to handle! In my opinion, the Fire Dragon Gang is good at dealing with this kind of rancid thing, so why don't you ask your guests to move over there? ”
As soon as Jin Dasco said this, the old customer was not happy. He said angrily: "I don't want to eat barbecue, I just want to eat stir-fry!" If you have a guest who comes to the door, you still push it out, can you still do business in Yuanbao Building? ”
Seeing that he insisted, Jin Dasco also hesitated a little. One less business is not tight, but if it damages the reputation of Yuanbaolou, the gains outweigh the losses.
I've never seen a two-headed snake either, but Master taught me how to handle rancid ingredients. Besides, ghost meals are for ghosts, and a little rot is actually not a big problem for them, the key is to have a good taste.
So, I said to Jin Dasco, "Why don't you let me try?" ”
Jin Dasco asked, "Are you sure?" ”
I laughed and said, "I can't say I'm sure I'll be outstanding, but I promise I won't mess up!" ”
Seeing that I was confident, Jin Dasco agreed.
I went back to the old customer and asked, "Do you have any special taste requirements?" ”
"No, it's delicious!" The old guest replied. But he immediately added: "But you can't chop it into pieces or slice it, otherwise you won't be able to tell it's a two-headed snake!" ”
This request was not difficult, so I said, "Then I'll make you a garlic-roasted two-headed snake!" However, it may take a little longer to process the ingredients, so please be patient! ”
The old customer was very happy and hurriedly agreed: "No problem! You get it first, I'll invite a few friends to eat together! With that, he went away again in high spirits.
I grabbed the dead snake from the table and looked at it carefully. The snake is dead, and the stall owner has soaked it in formalin, but when the stall is set up, it is really stinky!
But stinky tofu also stinks, isn't it the same that some people like to eat? Although taste and smell are the same most of the time, they are not exactly the same.
I picked up the dead snake, skinned it, dirty it, and then dug up the rotten place. The head of the snake cannot be chopped according to the requirements of the guests, and the body of the snake cannot be cut off, so it can only be slipped into a section, and only the spine is connected.
I got up the pot and added a lot of garlic and a lot of chili peppers to mask the taste. After getting out of the pot, you can put the snake in the pot, let the soup wrap the snake meat, add rice wine to remove the smell, and then cover it immediately to let the wine evaporate in the pot.
Wait a while to open the lid, add dark soy sauce, sugar and salt to taste, and stir-fry well. At this time, the soup becomes less and thicker, so you need to add some hot water to it, re-cover, and cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes.
The last step is key. After I opened the lid again, I carried the yin power in my hand and began to add yin qi, and at the same time turned the yang fire in the stove into a ghost fire, and gathered yin and reduced yang together.
After some special treatment, a dish of garlic roasted two-headed snake with a hot but cold taste is out of the pot. Finally, pour sesame oil on the plate, sprinkle some chopped green onions, and serve!
My side of the dish has just been ready, and the old customers outside have also arrived, just in time. When I put it on the plate, I deliberately coiled the snake body into a rope circle, coiled the two snake heads in the inner circle, and used two bamboo sticks to hold up the snake head, just like the living aggressive!
The old guest who was the owner was very satisfied when he saw it, at least in terms of appearance, he had fully met his requirements, allowing him to earn enough face in front of his ghost friends.
"Hmmm! Delicious! Delicious! ”
"Wow! It's so spicy! ”
Several guests feasted and ate very comfortably. In the end, the old guest who was the owner also grabbed a snake head with one hand, put it in his mouth in turn, and sucked his fingers after gnawing, which seemed unfinished.
After settling the bill, he gave me a thumbs up before leaving, and said, "Next time I want to get this kind of good thing again, and I will come to you to process it!" ”
Jin Dasco was also very satisfied with my performance. He stood aside and patted me on the shoulder and smiled, "Looks like I'm going to have to add another position." ”
"What position?"
"Three Kitchens!"
