Chapter 177: Visiting Carpenter Wang
Hot oil, pouring rice, stir-frying, Shen Ruoxiao's movements were fast and steady, and there was a faint sense of firmness on his body.
She had to win the approval of Carpenter Wang and get that set of ornaments.
In order to ensure that each grain of rice was intact and separated, she shook the pot vigorously, using the heat of the flame and centrifugal force to separate them naturally.
After the rice was fried, Shen Ruoxiao casually beat the four eggs, and poured the egg liquid on the rice in the pot with a twist of his wrist.
As before, Shen Ruoxiao still didn't use a spatula, and her movements were just right.
The egg mixture is evenly wrapped in each grain of rice, shining with a pale golden sheen.
"Wow, it smells so good!" Shui Su sniffed the side, and praised without hesitation.
This fried rice is full of color and fragrance, just smelling it makes people mouthful, and she really can't wait to rush over and grab her young lady's fried rice!
Putting the finished fried rice aside, Shen Ruoxiao reached out and patted the fresh wild boar meat on the board, and after finding out the texture of the muscles, he began to go under the knife.
The snow-white steel knife glowed with a cold light, and she took the knife and slashed along the texture of the pork.
The wild boar is very tough, but it is still cut by her knife.
Every time she cuts the knife, she can accurately cut a wild boar meat that is slightly larger than a grain of rice.
Shen Ruoxiao cut it extremely quickly, and after the meat was cut by her, it was full of elasticity, almost the same shape as long-grain rice.
From a distance, the meat looks like red rice.
Shui Su propped up on the desk, staring at the meat and grains without blinking, and finally couldn't help but twist one.
"Miss, your meat is so finely chopped that you can't see it when it's fried in the rice."
The corners of Shen Ruoxiao's mouth were presumptuous, "The reason why it is cut into the shape of rice grains is to mix it with rice, so that it is difficult to distinguish rice grains from pork. ”
Shui Su nodded clearly, and then put the meat and grains back in their place, looking forward to Shen Ruoxiao's next move.
"I see, then Miss hurry up and do it, Shui Su really wants to taste Miss's craftsmanship!"
Shen Ruoxiao smiled playfully, dipped his hand in the water bowl lightly, and flicked it on Shui Su's face.
"What a gluttonous cat! Okay, hurry up and help. ”
After cutting the main ingredients, Shen Ruoxiao cut the onions, ginger, garlic, chili, meat foam and other seasonings for later use.
After the rice is steamed, she quickly opens the steamer to cause the rice grains to dissipate heat and shrink.
"Su, you put the dishes in warm water to soak them, hot dishes for hot dishes, and cold dishes for cold dishes." Shen Ruoxiao said carefully.
"Hot dishes on hot plates?" Shui Su was a little stunned, she had seen that the dishes in the dining room were very casual, and there were not so many rules.
But since it was the young lady's explanation, she nodded, quickly soaked the dishes she needed in a bucket of warm water, and when Shen Ruoxiao needed it, she took them out and wiped them dry.
After the water boiled, Shen Ruoxiao added a little salt to it, and then skillfully passed the tofu in boiling water several times to remove the smell of beans, and then took it out and soaked it in water.
However, heat the wok, add oil, add the meat foam and stir-fry until the meat foam is golden brown, add seasonings such as chili powder and rattan pepper, and then pour an appropriate amount of broth into it.
After the broth boils, the tofu is put into it, and after boiling for a few minutes, a rich spicy aroma instantly diffuses from the pot.
The unique spicy aroma of mapo tofu makes people who smell the taste feel mouthful and spirited.
It is as if the soul has entered the world of numb and spicy, and with the fragrance of green onions, it makes people want to stop.
After Shen Ruoxiao put the mapo tofu on the hot plate, Shui Su and the others all swallowed a mouthful of saliva, with a strong look of hope in their eyes.
"What a unique scent, miss, is this done? I really want to take a bite! ”
Mapo tofu looks bright red, and the shape of the tofu is perfectly preserved, tender but not soft.
The tofu has a red color on the surface and green accents of chopped green onions, making it in excellent condition.
After Shen Ruoxiao put the dishes on the table, he quickly cleaned the wok, poured oil and heated it, and then poured the wild boar meat and grains into the pot and stir-fried.
Wild boar, when the kernel shrinks when heated, becomes the same size as a rice grain and takes on a pink color.
When it was not fully cooked, Shen Ruoxiao poured the cooled rice into the pot and stir-fried.
Soon the wild boar meat was mixed with the white rice, and the pot was red and white in an instant, which looked extremely attractive.
After the two were almost mixed, Shen Ruoxiao began to add chili sauce, the chili sauce was bright and bright red, and after pouring it into the pot, whether it was wild boar, grains or white rice, it was quickly dyed red.
At this point, the grains of rice and wild boar meat are already exactly the same, and it is difficult to distinguish them!
Shui Su stared at the rice in the pot in surprise, his small mouth opened into a circle, and saliva hung on the corner of his mouth, glowing with fluorescence.
If you don't know, you will definitely think that the pot is full of red rice.
This kind of cooking technique and creativity has hardly been seen before by her.
Seeing the greed in Shui Su's eyes, Shen Ruoxiao smiled dotingly, scooped a small spoonful of fried rice with a spoon and handed it to Shui Su.
"Alright, let's try it."
After eagerly taking the spoon and swallowing it into his mouth, Shui Su immediately frowned, and almost instantly pulled the spoon out untouched.
Shen Ruoxiao was shocked, "What, it's not delicious?" ”187
"No, no, no," Shui Su shook his head.
"It's too hot, haha!"
Hearing this, Shen Ruoxiao glanced at her angrily, "Eat slowly, is there anyone to rob you." ”
Shui Su smiled awkwardly, nodded, and gently blew the rice on the spoon, waiting for the rice to be colder before putting it in his mouth.
The golden fried rice melts in your mouth, and the egg mixture, green onion and rice-specific aroma explode on the tongue, turning into a warm current that swells to the lungs and even the whole body.
The tip of her tongue relaxed, and she squinted her eyes and immersed herself in the food.
Oh, my God!
How can there be such delicious fried rice in the world?
Suzu chewed quickly in his mouth, as if the rice would disappear if he slowed down.
"Miss, when are you going to do this? It's even better than the imperial kitchen of the palace! ”
Shen Ruoxiao was a little complacent, she raised her eyebrows lightly, "Shui Su, you are exaggerating, have you ever eaten the food cooked by the imperial kitchen?" ”
Shui Su stuck out his tongue and smiled flatteringly, "No, but everyone says that the imperial chef is powerful, but Shui Su thinks that Miss is even more powerful." ”
"Okay, okay, let's stop slapping the sycophants, hurry up and help bring it out."
Shen Ruoxiao was holding mapo tofu and Shui Su was holding fried rice, and the two came to the hall happily.
"Okay, Master Wang, Master Zhao, come and have a taste!"
As soon as they came out, Carpenter Wang smelled the smell and greeted him, with a smile on his face, "Female doll, what are you doing here?" So fragrant! ”
"The name doesn't matter, it's the taste that matters, do you say yes?" Shen Ruoxiao deliberately sold Guan Zi and put the food on the table.
Carpenter Wang and Blacksmith Zhao stared at the food on the table, hiding their saliva, and then after glancing at each other, they desperately pulled the food into the bowl.
In a blink of an eye, a large bowl of mapo tofu and half a pot of fried rice were all gone, and after being satisfied, Carpenter Wang burped with satisfaction.
"It's been a long time since I've eaten such a delicacy in the world." Blacksmith Zhao also nodded in agreement, touched his round belly, and stood up with his waist propped up.
"Yes, it's really good, the girl has a bright future in opening a restaurant!"
Hearing this, Shen Ruoxiao raised his eyebrows, and his body unconsciously moved towards the ornaments in the hall.
"Master Wang, ...... this set of ornaments?"
Carpenter Wang wiped the rice from the corner of his mouth, and with a satisfied expression, he squinted, leaned back in his chair, and waved his hand lazily.
"Alright, girl, move out if you like! Take good care of it, this is the old man's hard work! ”
Shen Ruoxiao was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed down, beckoning to Shui Su, "You put these things up, remember to be careful." ”
Shui Su nodded, and went down to find the box, while Shen Ruoxiao accompanied the blacksmith and carpenter Wang.
"Master Wang, your craftsmanship is so good, in fact, I want to ask you to order some tables, chairs and benches, you see ......"
Carpenter Wang only moved his eyelids slightly, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "No problem, it's wrapped up in the old man, you can pick it up in a few days." ”
Shen Ruoxiao happily took out a silver ticket from his arms and placed it on the table in front of Carpenter Wang.
"Then take this as a deposit, and I'll visit you in a few days."
After speaking, Shen Ruoxiao walked around the hall in a daze, waiting for the water and admiring the wood art in the hall.
Suddenly, a pair of delicate mahogany bowls, chopsticks and spoons on the wooden shelf on one side were magnificent in color and mellow atmosphere.
She couldn't help but reach out and take it, rubbing her fingertips against the mouth of the bowl.
"This set of cutlery looks good and has a lot of texture!"
Hearing Shen Ruoxiao's evaluation, Carpenter Wang opened his eyes slightly, turned his head to look over, and his face couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"You girl doll, you really have a unique vision, and the only few fine items in the hall are so good that you can find them."
The sound of laughter came out, and Carpenter Wang stood up with the armrest of his chair and walked over slowly.
Hearing this, Shen Ruoxiao hurriedly put the tableware back in place, with an apologetic face, "I'm sorry to have touched your things without permission." ”
Carpenter Wang didn't care at all, he took off the cutlery and put it back in Shen Ruoxiao's hand, "Since you like it so much, this set of cutlery will be given to you." ”
Gifted to her?
Shen Ruoxiao was flattered, and the hand holding the tableware trembled slightly, "Such a good thing, you just gave it to me?" ”
"No matter how good things are, there must be people who know how to appreciate them, and since there is fate, I will give it to you."
Shen Ruoxiao smiled like a flower, holding the tableware like a treasure, "Thank you Master Wang over there." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she thought again, "Master Wang doesn't know if you can order more tableware?" I mean, I ordered from you. Carpenter Wang was slightly stunned, and then laughed with relief, "Female doll, don't be joking, this kind of tableware is not something that can be made casually, you need precious wood, I don't have so many materials here." ”
"That's it!" Shen Ruoxiao was a little disappointed, "Is it difficult to buy these materials?" ”
"They are all priceless treasures in the market!" Carpenter Wang shook his head and let out a long sigh.
