Chapter 124 Accidental Burns
It's time to go to work now, and Lu Hongshen should be in the company, not here.
"This guest shouldn't need me to entertain you." Xiao Li patted Lin Xiaoxiao's shoulder and quickly slipped into the back kitchen.
Originally, Lin Xiaoxiao could face Lu Hongshen calmly, but because of Xiao Li's teasing words, Lin Xiaoxiao's gaze also dodged.
She thought to herself that Xiao Li's ability to reverse black and white was really first-class.
"Red bean and barley porridge."
Lin Xiaoxiao, who was in the void of fugue, hurriedly nodded: "Do you want to drink this?" ”
"It's Jane Condensation." Lu Hongshen replied: "She said that since the last time she drank it, she has always missed this taste. ”
As soon as the words fell, Lin Xiaoxiao's heartbeat, which was already fluttering, stopped beating.
"Good. Wait a minute, I'll be ready soon. ”
Just as he was about to turn around and walk into the back kitchen, Lu Hongshen's magnetic voice came from behind Lin Xiaoxiao: "By the way, add a few dishes, she has been having a bad appetite recently." ”
Lin Xiaoxiao's heart, which stopped beating, had another stab.
"Okay." She took a deep breath and strode into the back kitchen.
"I really don't know if this Lu Hongshen is really stupid or stupid, and he came here to mention Jian Yining. Early in the morning, he's really in a bad mood. ”
As soon as Lin Xiaoxiao walked into the back kitchen, Xiao Li came over.
"Alright. Stop talking about him behind his back. ”
Lin Xiaoxiao's voice was obviously covered with a layer of frost.
Xiao Li was silent and walked out. She could see that the current Lin Xiaoxiao was really angry, and the source of this anger was naturally that Lu Hongshen didn't run away.
In the back kitchen where the fire was on, Lin Xiaoxiao looked at the rising flames.
"Chef, this fire is about to burn the pot through!"
The sous chef shouted loudly, and Lin Xiaoxiao reacted. She reached out to turn off the fire, but was burned to her entire right hand by the tongue of fire that rose into the air.
The burning pain of the fire made Lin Xiaoxiao immediately take a few steps back. 、
"Why are you so careless, rush under the faucet!" The sous chef shouted again and pulled Lin Xiaoxiao down on the edge of the faucet.
The burning sensation in his hand continued to come, but Lin Xiaoxiao just stared ahead with a blank expression, expressionless.
"Chef! Head chef! ”
"Ah...... What's wrong. After the sous chef called a few more times, Lin Xiaoxiao looked back at the past as if he had just woken up from a dream. At this time, she clearly felt how strong the sharp pain in her hand was.
Her white hands were covered with hideous reddish-brown wounds, which were very shocking.
Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at his hand and shuddered. Her burns were severe enough to be treated immediately.
As a chef, there will inevitably be some bumps. The sous chef quickly found the burn medicine and applied it to Lin Xiaoxiao, and then persuaded him with kind words: "Chef, I see that your mood seems to be a little wrong today." You still have such a serious injury on your hand, otherwise you should go back first, I will guard you here. ”
Staring at his wounds, Lin Xiaoxiao shook his head.
"Your wound is so serious, if you stay here again, it will worsen! Besides, you're hurting your right hand, and it's not convenient to cook at all. You can rest assured, I will leave it to me today, absolutely no problem. ”
The sous chef was very good, and he directly pushed Lin Xiaoxiao and walked out of the back kitchen.
"Zhang Lang, I'm really fine." Lin Xiaoxiao stopped.
"That's not going to work either. With such a heavy wound, I don't know if it will scar you. ”
Lin Xiaoxiao recruited the sous chef himself, how stubborn his personality is, how could Lin Xiaoxiao himself not know. Glancing at the wound again, Lin Xiaoxiao sighed.
"Oh well. I made the last order last night, and then I went back to rest. That's it. ”
Lin Xiaoxiao was relieved, and Zhang Lang was reluctant to let go: "That's okay, I'll give you a hand." ”
"Okay."
Lin Xiaoxiao still remembers that when Jian Yining was hospitalized in the past, she also made this porridge for Jian Yining. Now Jian Yining asked her to do it again, but for some reason, it made Lin Xiaoxiao feel a little embarrassed.
It's only been a few days, but time has changed, and everything has changed.
She grabbed a few handfuls of red beans, and just when she was about to wash rice, Zhang Lang hurriedly snatched the rice bowl from Lin Xiaoxiao's hand.
"You're still a chef. Your wound has just been bandaged, where can you touch the water? Leave this to me. ”
Lin Xiaoxiao, who had no rice bowl, took a back seat. Her gaze swept over Zhang Lang's busy back, and then looked at the ingredients that had not yet been processed on the side.
For today's breakfast, she is going to make a cold salad of lotus root shreds and fried shrimp with lotus leaves for Jian Yining.
Lu Hongshen said that Jian Yining has a bad appetite these days, and these two dishes are just light and appetizing.
As soon as he said to do it, Lin Xiaoxiao rolled up his sleeves and cut the lotus root slices into thin strips. When she was just about to put the lotus root silk into hot water and blanch, Zhang Lang had already scooped the rice.
Lin Xiaoxiao took the rice bowl, put an appropriate amount of water in the pressure cooker, and then carefully put in the red beans and barley in turn to steam together.
Now that the red bean and barley porridge is about to arrive, Lin Xiaoxiao heats up another pot. When the hot water in the pot began to boil, Lin Xiaoxiao poured the lotus root into it, rolled it a little, and then fished it out.
The key point of the cold lotus root is that the taste should be crisp, so Lin Xiaoxiao only fished it out after a little water. She picked up a mouthful of lotus root with chopsticks and put it in her mouth, and there was an immediate crunch sound in her mouth.
Lotus root silk cooked to this extent is the best way to make cold dishes.
"Well, is there anything else you need my help with?" Zhang Lai couldn't stay idle, scratched his head and asked Lin Xiaoxiao.
"No, let's take a break. After I'm gone in a moment, and when you're busy. Lin Xiaoxiao was adjusting the vinegar sauce, and replied while moving his hands.
Zhang Lang laughed dryly: "Then I'll rest first." ”
"Okay."
Zhang Lang left, and Lin Xiaoxiao muttered in his heart. She hadn't noticed it before, but it turned out that she had recruited this sous chef with a pretty good personality.
Although they have worked together in the restaurant for so many days, because Lin Xiaoxiao studies recipes in addition to cooking every day, he rarely interacts with the staff in the restaurant.
Today, it was the first time she had said so many things to Zhang Lang. This feels good.
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded, added vinegar sauce and a small amount of five-spice powder to the blanched lotus root, and then finally added sesame seeds and coriander to garnish.
A few very simple processes, the cold lotus root silk is ready.
The last dish left, the steps of stir-fried shrimp with lotus leaves, was not difficult for Lin Xiaoxiao.
The most important thing about stir-fried shrimp with lotus leaves is that the lotus leaves and shrimp must be fresh, and only fresh enough raw materials can make the most refreshing and sweet fried shrimp with lotus leaves.
Lin Xiaoxiao picked out a large piece of lotus leaves with thick leaves, washed them and cut them into cubes, and then took out the river shrimp that he had just picked from the morning market this morning from the freezer.
Not long after the river shrimp arrived from the morning market, they were all alive and kicking, which was in line with Lin Xiaoxiao's requirements for fresh enough ingredients.
There is a reason why river shrimp was chosen over sea shrimp. As a famous local dish, only authentic river shrimp with authentic lotus leaves can make the most authentic fried shrimp with lotus leaves.
The reason why Lin Xiaoxiao's cooking is outstanding is also related to this, no matter which part of the dish is made, Lin Xiaoxiao will strive for excellence.
