Chapter 59 It's important to be a kitchen knife worker

There is no direct carriage from Wuling City to Luoyuan Village, and it must be transferred in Qingjiang City. Qin Zheng rented a horse and galloped along the road. The wind was blowing violently, the scenery around her was rapidly falling backwards, Qin Zheng was a little distracted on the back of the bumpy horse, and she remembered the killer career of riding horses and rivers and lakes in the past.

"Boom-" The horse suddenly raised its hooves and neighed, and she came back to her senses, and saw a carriage speeding in front of her, and hurriedly pulled the reins to avoid it, and narrowly brushed the cart.

"What a handsome ride!" Someone in the car shouted praise.

Qin Zheng smiled, slowed down his horse's speed, and began to walk slowly. It was the cool weather of early autumn, and the leaves of the trees on both sides of the road had begun to turn slightly yellow, and when the wind blew them, a few leaves occasionally fell down, and the horses' hooves stepped on them, and then crushed into mud.

Untied the water bladder on his waist and drank a few sips of water, Qin Zheng wiped the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand, feeling that the days of wandering around like this were very pleasant, if in the past, there was no such leisure, and even after today, I don't know if tomorrow is still alive. Qin Zheng sighed, forcing himself not to think about those days again, it is better to forget them, anyway, you can't go back, and the most important thing is to start living a good life again.

After walking for a while, gradually, he heard the rare roaring sound of water in front of him, Qin Zheng's heart moved, and he rode his horse to find the sound of water, and sure enough, he didn't go far to see a cluster of waterfalls rushing down from the mountains with a majestic momentum, hitting the rocks all the way, like thunder, and then reflecting the echo in the valley, the sound shook the heavens and the earth.

This is the waterfall that Butterfly Dance said she wanted to see in the book of thousands of miles last time, right? It's spectacular indeed. As I got closer, I was greeted by a splash of water, and my face was cold and wet. Then probe to see, a pool of water color is deep blue, its moist like oil. Qin Zheng couldn't help but get off the horse, bolted the horse to the edge of the deep pool, picked up a handful of water and drank it, only to feel cold and sweet, extremely refreshing, so he untied the water bladder on his waist, poured out the residual water inside, and filled a bag of water in the pool.

Qin Zheng played in the water for a long time, and then caught fish from the pool and grilled it to eat. I don't know if it's because of the cold and biting water in the pool, the fish here are not big, but the meat is exceptionally delicate and delicious, Qin Zheng alone ate several, not to mention how much the gluttonous people of the crystal beetle ate!

Play enough, eat enough, drink enough. It was past noon when he got on the road again, and Qin Zheng didn't stay in the city when he arrived at Qingjiang City, so he rode a horse to Luoyuan Village to inquire about the direction clearly, and hurried slowly, and when he entered the village, the sky was already dark, and the surrounding scenery was not clear, and he saw the lights in the village like fireflies.

Knocking on the door of a villager's house, Qin Zheng smiled and asked about the residence of Luo's sister-in-law.

"Oh, you're looking for Liu Luo, she lives next to me." The villagers were having dinner, and the old woman who came out to open the door was still holding bamboo chopsticks in her hand.

Qin Zheng thanked him, and went to knock on Liu Luo's door again, only to hear someone inside say loudly: "The door is not closed, come in." ”

Pushing the door in, Qin Zheng saw a woman sitting at the table peeling beans through the still bright light in the room, and then her face turned around, and she could see that her eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Luo's sister-in-law.

"What's the matter with me?" Liu Luo saw that someone he didn't know came in, so he frowned slightly.

"I have here a letter that your sister asked me to bring you." Qin Zheng took out the letter and handed it over.

"My sister?" Liu Luo wiped his hands on the apron, took the letter suspiciously, folded it through the light, and after a while, wiped the tears oozing from the corners of his eyes and said to Qin Zheng: "Don't laugh, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years." ”

Qin Zheng nodded, seeing this situation, it was not easy for him to stay for a long time, so he was about to leave.

"Wait, my sister mentioned you in the letter, saying that you are not bad at cooking, let me give you some good advice. What's more, you have sent me a letter from afar, and I have nothing to reciprocate, so I will teach you some cooking skills in return. Liu Luo hurriedly stopped Qin Zheng, who had already turned around.

"Mention me?" Qin Zheng was stunned. She clearly saw that Sister-in-law Luo pulled out a random letter from a pile of letters that seemed to have been written already and asked her to send it, how could it be that she mentioned herself?

"yes, that's about you." Liu Luo has returned to normal at this time, and it seems that her personality is slightly colder than that of Sister-in-law Luo. She first looked Qin Zheng up and down, and then said: "Although I want to instruct you, I don't know what level your current cooking skills are, so let's do it, I was going to cook dinner, now you can cook two dishes for me to taste." ”

Cooking is difficult for Qin Zheng now, she casually agreed, rolled up her sleeves and walked into the kitchen, picked up the existing vegetables and meat in the kitchen and made three dishes and one soup.

"This beef is not cut correctly." Liu Luozhi just picked up a chopstick of shredded beef and tasted it, then shook his head and said: "Cut the cow horizontally, cut the pig diagonally, cut the chicken vertically, you have a problem with the cutting method." ”

As she spoke, she went to clip a chopstick of shredded multicolored radish, and she hadn't eaten it yet, so she took it in front of her eyes and put it down, saying, "Look at the length and thickness of this radish, how can it taste good?" ”

Liu Luo also lost the interest in tasting the food, and only said lightly to Qin Zheng: "Didn't my sister teach you knife skills?" How can a chef improve his cooking skills if he can't even cut the dishes well? ”

Qin Zheng shook her head when she heard this, Sister-in-law Luo really didn't teach her knife skills, but she didn't understand what the bad cutting of vegetables had to do with the taste, at most it was just ugly, and it didn't affect eating.

Liu Luoche saw that she was confused, so he explained: "If the meat is cut in the wrong way, it will be too old to make a dish, and this plate of colorful radish shreds, if you cut it with different lengths and thicknesses, it will be heated differently when you fry it, and the depth of salt will be different, and the taste will be poor." Cooking is not difficult, but the foundation must be learned well, knife work is the first step, I don't think I have anything to teach you, just point out your knife work. ”

"Okay." Qin Zheng nodded.

Liu Luoshi said again: "It just so happens that these **** husbands have not returned from going out on business, so they will keep you for a few days, and tomorrow will get up early in the morning to teach you knife work, and then leave after practicing." Now I'm going to recook a few dishes, you've been working hard all day, so wash and sleep early after eating. After she finished speaking, she poured a cup of tea for Qin Zheng and went straight to the kitchen.

After a while, there was a mouth-watering aroma in the kitchen, and the fish that Qin Zheng ate at noon had already been digested, and he only felt hungry at this time. After waiting for a while, I saw Liu Luoche bring out three dishes and one soup, the dishes were exactly the same as what she made, but they looked different, much better than what she had made before. When I taste it again, the taste is even more delicious, and then I know that knife work is really important.
