Chapter 12: Earthy Handsome Guy [Ask for Recommended Collection]
Ten meters away, a young man with a floral shirt tucked into his white pants and white leather shoes on his feet walked up.
On his left wrist he wears a realistic gold watch,
With a string of Buddha beads on his right wrist,
A clanging keychain hangs from his waist,
Put your hands in your pockets again,
A chic look of the most handsome man in the old street.
"His name is Zhao Gang, and he is the head chef of the 'hot kitchen' with the best business in Laojie, and his cooking skills are very good." Before Zhao Gang approached, Su Rui hurriedly whispered in Li Can's ear.
Li Can let out an unsavory 'oh', but anyone could hear the unkindness in his tone.
Su Rui knew that Zhao Gang's words offended Li Can, but she didn't have time to appease her at the moment, so she could only laugh dryly to herself.
"Brother Zhao, why do you have time to come over, isn't the store busy?"
"There are those guys in the store who look fine, besides, as the head chef, I can't let me do everything myself."
Zhao Gang didn't even look at Li Can, he approached Su Rui directly, getting closer and closer, and almost pasted his face plate, "Sister Su Rui, didn't I tell you, let you wait for two more days, and when I arrange things over there, I will have time to come over and help you take care of the restaurant." ”
"Brother Zhao, I don't need you to bother with this small restaurant, I can take care of it myself, besides, if you come to help me, Boss Shen will definitely be unhappy."
Su Rui leaned back without a trace, tried to distance herself as much as possible, and then quickly turned around and poured Zhao Gang a glass of water to relieve the embarrassment.
"Snorr.. What are you afraid of, Lao Shen's shop didn't rely on me to become popular. If he was smart enough, he wouldn't dare to point fingers at me and make irresponsible remarks. ”
Zhao Gang took the glass of water and took a sip, and at the end he shook the flowing bangs on his forehead, and several whitish acne on his forehead loomed, and the corners of his mouth rose.
Poof!
Li Can really couldn't hold it back, this guy's earthy taste pretended to be in the realm of Da Luo Jin Xian.
"Huh?" Zhao Gang swept over with a sharp look, "What are you laughing at?" ”
"Ahem, that Li Can, why don't you go to the kitchen and get busy, about what happened just now, I thought about it, just do what you say, I believe you." Before Li Can could answer, Su Rui hurriedly played the round, so as not to cause something out of control.
"Okay."
Li Can naturally had no opinion, and after leaving Zhao Gang with a mentally handicapped look, he took away all the menus of the restaurant.
"Look at this kid's attitude."
Zhao Gang pretended to pursue and was stopped by Su Rui.
"Brother Zhao, don't be angry, Li Canren is very good."
"Sister Su Rui, it's not that Brother Zhao said you, even if you are in a hurry to find a chef, you can't find such a hairy boy who has just entered the society."
Zhao Gang shook his head and sighed, "I have seen a lot of this kind of person, not only are they young and vigorous, but they always feel that Lao Tzu is the best in the world, and in fact, they have no skills at all." ”
"How can Brother Zhao say so exaggerated, I have tried Li Can's craftsmanship, and it is quite good." Su Rui cleverly replaced 'very good' with 'very good'.
Although she is young, she has a sophisticated style of doing things, that is, she is not too partial to Li Can, and she will not let Zhao Gang lose face, and she has a very good sense of proportion.
Zhao Gang's reputation in the old street is very high, and anyone who is wrong can directly affect the judgment standards of the guests, so everyone is reluctant to have a bad relationship with him on weekdays.
"Hey." Zhao Gang sighed, looking very sorry, and immediately found a stool to sit down and chatted with Su Rui.
Su Rui was naturally embarrassed to refuse.
…
In the kitchen, Li Can was busy processing ingredients.
He didn't pay attention to Zhao Gang's ridicule at all, and he could even describe it as ignorance.
It's not how open-minded he is.
It is a mentality that naturally forms when the cooking skills reach a certain level.
It's like elephants and ants.
Da Da Da Da ..
Li Can cut the pork loin into shreds, each piece of meat is the same thickness and length, just like the machine produced.
Superb knife work, you can see it.
In fact, Zhao Gang is not wrong in one sentence: as a head chef, you don't have to do it yourself.
It's true that Li Can hasn't handled the ingredients himself for a long time.
In the past, in the Imperial Court, there were assistant cooks who were specifically responsible for such things.
Most of his time is spent researching new dishes, or occasionally finding time to guide newcomers and take control.
After the shredded meat is cut, it also needs to be marinated.
Add salt, cooking wine, egg whites, starch and a dash of baking soda.
Baking soda can make the meat smooth and tender, and starch can lock in the moisture in the meat, making the shredded meat more delicious.
In fact, usually,
Most chefs don't know the magic of baking soda, and will directly use tender meat powder instead of baking soda and starch, which is not impossible, but the taste will be worse.
Li Can's understanding of food is very simple, it is nothing more than a whole pieced together with little details.
He likes to be down to detail.
Set the marinated shredded meat aside and let it stand, the longer it is, the better the effect and the more flavorful it will be.
Today's dish is only 'fish-flavored shredded pork', and this dish has another thing that needs to be prepared in advance.
Fish sauce!
Fish sauce is the core of fish flavor shredded meat, without it, no matter how well the previous steps are handled, it will be a bamboo basket after all.
The orthodox fish-flavored shredded pork is not seasoned during the stir-frying process, and it all depends on the fish-flavored sauce to absorb the flavor.
Li Can prepared a small basin and added rice vinegar, sugar, light soy sauce, starch, and salt to it in the ratio of 5:4:3:2:1.
If it is someone else, it is estimated that a small spoon will be taken to control the proportion.
Li Can is different, he directly pours the seasoning into it, and the tool for judging the proportion is just his intuition.
This is his self-confidence.
In the imperial court, some people doubted his ability to control the seasoning, so he found the most precise weigher to test it on the spot.
As a result,
Without the slightest error!
This terrifying control...
Of course, Li Can never denies that he has a super talent in food, but if he only relies on talent, he will not have today's achievements.
The effort and sweat that went into it is known only to him.
When the fish sauce is finished, only the side dishes are left.
fungus shredding,
Shred the green bamboo shoots.
The rest of the ginger, garlic, dried chili peppers and other condiments that will be used are all prepared by Su Rui a long time ago.
Nothing to do,
Li Can can't stay in the kitchen all the time.
But when he just lifted the curtain, he was startled by the scene in front of him.
I saw that the 'earthy taste of the declining brother' has not left yet,
Su Rui stood aside with a wry smile on her face,
Besides
There were more than 20 strangers gathered at the door of the restaurant, including a few fat people who were five big and three thick, with a fat body and a round waist.
The buzzing sound is as irritating as a fly.
"Well, that's him."
With Zhao Gang's words, everyone's eyes looked at Li Can in unison.
