Chapter 39: Massage and Acupuncture
Li Muchen had the same idea in her heart after tasting the chicken soup, and after seeing Kong Chengxi's expression, she confirmed her thoughts. She took five hens from the woman's house, and gave her a thousand dollars, but the woman didn't ask for it, and the last one gave five hundred.
The three of them left Qingxin County, and when they returned to the hotel an hour and a half later, Li Muchen immediately began to write down the methods and ingredients of the chicken soup, and made preliminary optimizations to it. Although they all have an upgrade plan in mind, they hope that Li Muchen will complete his ideas without relying on them.
Li Muchen has a unique vision for the processing of ingredients and the selection of materials, which is a talent and ability, she soon had a preliminary idea, Guangzhou ancient restaurant is a study of the inheritance of ancient cuisine of the restaurant, remember when I was a child, the master in the kitchen had to do a "cold massage" on all the ingredients under the pot before making soup, she decided to learn from Huang Da this kind of massage techniques and acupuncture can further enhance the beauty of the meat technology.
made a mark next to the recipe, and knocked down the red wine placed next to him in a moment's thought, Li Muchen was startled and came back to his senses, looked at the bright red liquid on the table, and muttered: "Red wine?" That's right, red wine! ”
After saying that, she ran out under the surprised gazes of Kong Chengxi and Zhan Xingnan, and Zhan Xingnan saw her excited expression and said to Kong Chengxi on the side: "It seems that she has solved the first problem!" ”
Kong Chengxi glanced at the red wine on the table and nodded slightly: "The idea is a good idea, but you still have to see the taste of the pot." ”
After a while, Li Muchen came over with two bottles of Lafite red wine from the warehouse, and made a phone call: "Uncle Huang, just now, if it is convenient, please come to the hotel, the rivers and lakes will help!" ”
Huang Da listened to Li Muchen's ruffian words, and naturally he would not refuse her request when he watched her grow up, and hung up the phone with a smile when he said that he would go out immediately!
Before Huang Dahl came, Li Muchen prepared all the accessories used, and when he saw that the time was almost up, he asked Zhan Xingnan to help kill a free-range chicken brought back from Qingxin County, she didn't dare to do it herself.
After preparing these Huang Da has also rushed to the hotel, seeing that Kong Chengxi and Zhan Xingnan are also bowing slightly and politely saying hello, the master is the teacher, he also saw Kong Chengxi's cooking skills that day, and easily defeated Liu Jie, he asked himself if he could do it.
"Uncle Huang, you're here!" Li Muchen was so anxious, before Huang Dahl could speak, he pulled him to the chef's table, "Look, can massage and acupuncture this chicken improve the beauty of the meat?" ”
Huang Dahl looked at it, revealing a look of surprise, the treatment method when killing the chicken is especially like the means of the ancients, which can ensure the freshness of the ingredients to the greatest extent, and asked: "Xiao Muchen, this chicken was handled by you?" ”
Li Muchen shook his head: "How can I have that guts, it was Brother Zhan who helped deal with it!" ”
Huang Da looked at Zhan Xingnan, although the other party did not go on stage that day, but seeing that this technique was definitely not a simple role, he couldn't help but be a little curious about where Li Muchen met such two master chefs during the two months of his disappearance.
Li Muchen didn't give him a chance to ask questions, and hurriedly asked him to seize the time to teach her. Kongchengxi and Zhan Xingnan originally planned to retreat, but Huang Dahl stopped them and asked them to stay, this traditional craft should be passed on, not to mention that they helped the hotel tide over the difficulties, and they are still friends of Mu Chen, so they don't pay attention to those.
Under the gaze of the three of them, Huang Dahl skillfully massaged and acupuncture the whole chicken, while massaging while explaining to them the usefulness of those places, Kong Chengxi and Zhan Xingnan nodded frequently, they didn't even think about this technique, and it was also a great benefit for them!
Li Muchen caught a glimpse of Kong Chengxi showing such a modest attitude, and couldn't help but raise his chin proudly, Kong Chengxi noticed her small movements, revealing a speechless expression.
After about ten minutes of massage and acupuncture, Huang Dahl stopped: "Okay, now cook this chicken according to your own ideas!" ”
Hearing this, Li Muchen did not add other ideas for the first time, but used this ingredient to make soup like in Qingxin County, and Kong Chengxi and the two understood that she wanted to compare the taste before and after, and see how much the massage and acupuncture method would improve the ingredients.
More than an hour later, a pot of fragrant lotus leaf chicken soup came out of the pot, Huang Dahl also joined in the tasting, took a sip gently, the rich fragrance spread in the mouth, and couldn't help but take a big sip, he was the first time to drink such a delicious chicken soup, although he expected the difference of this chicken during the massage, but the taste still shocked him.
"What breed of chicken is this? This delicious taste is amazing! Huang Dahl asked with a happy and excited expression.
"Our free-range chicken in the city next door!" Li Muchen explained.
"Qingyuan Chicken?" Huang Dahl suddenly nodded, "No wonder there is such a beautiful meat!" ”
Li Muchen looked at Kongchengxi and Zhanxingnan, they had tasted the soup when they were in the farmhouse before, and they wanted to compare it with the chicken after the massage now.
Zhan Xingnan sandwiched a piece of chicken and tasted it, also showing a touch of surprise as if it was the first time he ate it, and was stunned for a moment and came back to his senses: "This meat quality is completely different from what I ate on Beacon Hill before, I didn't expect that just a massage and acupuncture can improve the meat quality so much!" ”
Kong Chengxi nodded on the side: "Indeed, this field is something I haven't thought of, and it is indeed a great improvement, and your idea is very good!" ”
Li Muchen had a dark face on the side, and he was unhappy when he heard Kong Chengxi praise her in a praising student's tone.
Kong Chengxi felt that there was a resentful gaze staring at him, and when he turned around, it was Li Muchen's gaze, revealing a trace of doubt, and thought about it, why did he offend her again if he didn't say the wrong thing!
"Ahem, try adding your ideas in the same way!" Kong Chengxi avoided this vicious gaze and coughed lightly and reminded!
