7. The minced beans are full of kitchen fragrance
In addition to this ancestral craft, the lo-mei recipe is also a must, so even if Wang Qing can't make the taste of Li Kee Restaurant, it is far better than other cooks, and the shopkeeper of Mingyue Restaurant doesn't want to let him go easily.
Thinking about the diners outside, the shopkeeper thinks that they are nothing more than for the taste, who would be so elegant? So he asked Xiao Er to take two plates up.
didn't know that Qin Wuran, who was waiting outside, was not good.
"Guest officer, the lo-mei you want is here." Xiao Er came with a smile again, and put the two plates of meat and vegetables on the table.
And Qin Wuran only glanced at it, then sneered and shook his head.
"The chef of Mingyue Restaurant is so powerful, not to mention that he has the true inheritance of Li Ji Restaurant, and now he can't even fry sugar?"
Xiao Er is not a person in the back kitchen, where will he know about sugar color? I was immediately a little confused.
Qin Wuran put the chopsticks on the table and said, "You are just a runaway, I don't embarrass you, and ask Wang Qing to come to see me." ”
Seeing that she could even call Wang Qing's name, Xiao Er knew that she was not an ordinary diner, so he regarded her as a fault finder, and became sloppy.
"Since the guest officer knows Chef Wang's name, he should know that he once worked in Li Kee Restaurant, and now Li Kee Restaurant can't accommodate this big Buddha, so why not make another bowl for Chef Wang? If the guest officer wants to trouble Chef Wang because of this, our Mingyue Restaurant will not follow. ”
This was originally a grudge between the Li family and Wang Qing, and Qin Wuran naturally didn't want to be angry with others, so she straightened her sleeves and said, "Since you talk to me about this, then I will have a good fight with you."
This Wang Qingnai is the younger brother of the second wife of the Li family, who entrusted the relationship between the second master and entered the Li Ji restaurant to help cook, who knew that it would be enough to eat and wait for death all day long, and even because of Master Li's scolding, he held a grudge and let his sister steal the secret deed and tear it up privately. The things of the year were all caused by the pavilion chief, and the Li family remembered that his sister was the wife of the second master, and they didn't want to pursue it, but now Wang Qingzheng is selling the marinade in a bright way, but it has become Li Ji's restaurant that can't tolerate this big Buddha? ”
As soon as this remark came out, everyone present who heard it talked about it one after another, and there were really two or three people who knew about it and explained it in detail with the people around them.
Wang Qing, who was in the back kitchen and wanted to see the reaction of today's lo-mei, came out, and he said something like this.
Even if she was wearing men's clothes, Wang Qing could recognize her, and when he saw Qin Wuran, Qin Wuran naturally saw him.
So he hooked his lips and smiled lightly, with a bit of sarcasm, "A fake is a fake, and even a sugar color can't be fried, even the gold and jade are not counted among them, and our Li Ji Restaurant is too lazy to care." It's just that Chef Wang remembered that although the marinated recipe you stole is detailed, the real secret recipe is something you can't learn. ”
Qin Wuran wanted to leave after speaking, but when she was about to reach the door, Wang Qing walked forward quickly and said angrily: "Everyone can cook dishes in the world, how do you know that I can't make anything better than Li Ji Restaurant?" ”
"Then I'll see." Although Qin Wuran said this, her eyes were extremely contemptuous, obviously not taking him seriously.
Today, when I heard that Wang Qing stole the marinated formula, Qin Wuran was indeed a little worried, after all, even if she got the marinated recipe, even if she became the majority, and several chefs in Mingyue Restaurant were hired with a lot of money, and if you get the marinated recipe and study it deeply, you won't get nothing no matter how you think about it.
But looking at Wang Qing like this, I'm afraid that even if the strength is not enough, she won't hand over the halogen at all, which makes her feel much more at ease.
What's more, Qin Wuran pondered carefully, the marinated recipes at home were all passed on by word of mouth, and the second uncle did not learn and did not know how to do it, so it was difficult for him to acquiesce in the name of the spices, so what Wang Qing got may not be a complete marinated recipe.
However, Li Yingyue didn't know that she was a little settled in her heart, and as soon as she came out of Mingyue Restaurant, she showed a sad face, "How can Miss not worry about him?" The marinade is in his hands, if he can really make a slight change and make use of his strengths and avoid weaknesses, it will not be good for us. ”
"What are you afraid of, your reputation as the Li family for a hundred years is false? Moreover, what Wang Qingneng got from his second aunt was nothing more than those packets, many of the spices in them were broken at first, and I was afraid that he would be able to braid the twenty-six spices in them one by one? What's more, he can't even fry the sugar color well, and looking at the color of the finished product is not only black, but also bitter, he knows that he doesn't have that ability. ”
Li Yingyue heard it in a fog, only knowing that she meant that Wang Qingde's recipe was incomplete, and she didn't have the ability to recognize it all, and her heart was also settled.
When he returned to Li Ji Restaurant, Old Man Li had already rested, and naturally he didn't leave food for the two of them at noon.
"The silver just now should be wasted, and we can't look down on the bite of Mingyue Restaurant, but I'm really hungry, so Miss will make me something to eat." Li Yingyue grabbed two steamed buns in the morning to deal with the past, and she didn't move her chopsticks in Mingyue Restaurant, she was already hungry all the way like this, and she stretched out her hands and lay on the table at this time.
Qin Yu was also a little hungry, and asked her to wait for a while, went to the big kitchen in front of her to cut some meat, and took out a bowl of beans from the jar.
This capers are pickled by Mrs. Li herself, although they are not as fresh and verdant, but the crisp taste is no different. The most special thing is the sour fragrance, just smelling it makes the mouth revel. Qin Wu couldn't help but take one and eat it first, the taste was not too salty, but it happened to be appetizing.
The beans were diced and soaked in a basin, the lean meat was minced, the green onions, ginger, garlic and red peppers were chopped and set aside, and two more balls of noodles were pulled out.
Heat the oil first, stir-fry the minced ginger, garlic and red pepper and homemade bean sauce until fragrant, then stir-fry the minced meat over high heat until it changes color, and then put the drained capers into it, so that the whole kitchen will be filled with a fragrance.
It was not the first time that Li Yingyue had tasted Qin Yingyue's craftsmanship, and when she heard the aroma, she was eager to try it, and took two large bowls and chopsticks and spoons, which can be said to be fully prepared.
Qin Wuran has already fried the vegetables here, put some water and wait for it to boil, then threw the noodles in, put some sugar and salt to taste, put it in the bowl and sprinkled a handful of green onions, it looks very tempting.
"Eat." Qin Yingran took her own bowl and said to Li Yingyue.
The latter waited for her words, and hurriedly picked up the remaining bowl, and picked up the beans and ate them first without worrying about the heat.
After not passing the water for too long, the beans still maintain their initial crispness and tenderness, and the first bite is refreshing and sour, and there is some sauce fragrance in it, which is really addictive.
"It's also thanks to my small shelf, if I really can't hide my fleshy body, I'm afraid that I can be fat into a ball, how can I find someone in the future?" Li Yingyue sighed while blowing noodles.
Qin Yanran only thought it sounded funny, "Don't talk about eating fat, no one wants you now, what does it matter if you are fat or not?" ”
"What are you talking about, Miss?" Li Yingyue hurriedly retorted, but before she finished speaking, she first put the cold noodles in her mouth, and then continued: "Didn't that fat boy from the uncle's family chase after me every day and say that he wants to marry me?" If you really want to calculate it, even if I don't look top-notch, I am also the first-class Zhou Zheng in our town, Miss don't underestimate me. ”
Qin Wuran thought about the eldest son of the Li family, that is, her uncle, and couldn't help but shake her head and sigh.
After all, he was only twelve or thirteen years old and grew to more than one hundred and seventy pounds, and the body could support her three in one stop next to Li Yingyue, and I don't know what this uncle and aunt ate him.
A bowl of noodles quickly bottomed out, Li Yingyue was satisfied with what she ate, but she put down her chopsticks and was a little unsatisfied, "It seems that I have to come to the back kitchen to help from time to time." ”
Qin Wuran glared at her angrily, "Can you be busy with the work of entertaining guests in front of you?" I still want to go around the back kitchen, and I'm not afraid that my grandfather will punish you. ”
Old lady Li has always been a fiery character, and she can handle Qin Yingyue, her own granddaughter, and Li Yingyue naturally treats everyone equally.
"Then I'd better take care of what's ahead."
After a break at noon, the business in the afternoon had to be opened up quickly, when Mrs. Li arrived in the big kitchen, Qin was dying with a slice of braised pork, and when she arrived at Hongdao, she could be regarded as eye-catching, because he had always liked to find faults, he didn't say anything, he rolled up his sleeves and washed his hands and prepared to work.
Qin Wuran's head was full of Wang Qing of Mingyue Restaurant today, and when she saw Old Lady Li at this time, she was a little hesitant and didn't know how to speak.
Fortunately, the latter also saw that she wanted to speak again, and chopped the big row into two sections with a knife in her hand, and then said: "If you have anything to say, just say it, and if you don't say it, do your job well." ”
Qin Wuran didn't continue to hide it, and casually mentioned the matter of today's Mingyue Restaurant.
"I smell the smell should be our family's bag, but Wang Qingdu has been gone for so long, according to his temperament, if he really has this way, how can he find Mingyue Restaurant until now?"
"Who knows?" Although Mrs. Li had already kept the matter in mind, there was no emotion on her face, "Zuo is just someone who stole the family's material package and sold it to him, what else?" You don't have to worry about this anymore, just let him go. ”
"What do you mean by letting him go? This has been stolen under our noses, if we still let it go, what will Li Ji Restaurant do? ”
Seeing that she was obviously angry, her eyebrows were frowning, and she was probably still thinking about countermeasures, but Old Lady Li laughed inexplicably, "Do you think we can't fight Mingyue Restaurant?" ”
"Why can't you fight? They are restaurants, doing all kinds of business, and we are just a small restaurant, lo-mei is a housekeeping skill, and we can't let him learn it. ”
Old Lady Li listened to her words, but shook her head disapprovingly, "What's the use of having only one housekeeper?" Once you don't hold it, you will only face an embarrassed exit. And only by continuous innovation can we go further. ”
