Chapter Twenty-Four: The Master of Dark Cuisine! ~
At night.
Li Dazui finished packing up his baggage, and shouted as he walked out: "I can't do this job!" Brothers, tell you!
I can't make this dish.
I'll go first! Take care, everyone! There will be a meeting later! ”
A group of people hurriedly hugged Li Dazui.
"Big mouth, no, no."
"yes, Big Mouth. Don't worry, think again. ”
"yes, let's think again."
A group of people unloaded the burden on Li Dazui as they spoke.
Li Dazui said: "What do you call me to think! Eighty dishes, I'm in a hurry. ”
"Hey, don't we each come up with a few things?"
"That's right."
"Lao Bai, you are well-informed, you can say a few things first."
Bai Zhantang said: "Wait, I can't remember this suddenness. ”
Li Dazui said anxiously: "Then you should think about it quickly!" ”
Bai Zhantang clapped his hands, "Yes, I think the best thing in the world is..."
A group of people looked at Bai Zhantang expectantly.
"Steamed buns!"
"Ouch, I'll go."
"I thought it was!"
Bai Zhantang touched his stomach and said, "Big mouth, you get me two steamed buns first."
I'm going crazy with hunger. ”
Li Dazui said angrily: "Oh, I'm going to die, you are." ”
After speaking, he went to the kitchen for Bai Zhantang and took out two steamed buns.
"Come on, come on, eat fast, eat fast."
Bai Zhantang took the steamed bun handed over and took two bites, then said, "Listen to me." In the early years, when I was in Ouchi. ”
Lu Xiucai asked, "Ouchi? Have you ever been an errand boy for the emperor? ”
Bai Zhantang explained: "It's not an errand. The main purpose of my entry into the palace was to do some carrying work. ”
"Oh~"
Bai Zhantang hurriedly defended: "I, I, I didn't steal anything." Remember, I didn't steal anything.
There were brocade guards everywhere. I turned around a few times and couldn't move anything.
So he went to the imperial dining room and stole a bowl of porridge.
Oh, people's porridge is delicious! ”
Guo Furong hurriedly asked, "What kind of porridge is that?" ”
Bai Zhantang thought for a moment, "Hey, it seems to be called bird's nest white fungus osmanthus porridge." ”
Li Dazui said angrily: "This is kung fu, where can I give you the whole bird's nest!" With that, he turned around sulkingly.
Bai Zhantang hurriedly persuaded: "There is no bird's nest, and the pig's nest is also completed." ”
Li Dazui turned his head in disbelief, "What, what's that?" ”
Bai Zhantang explained embarrassedly: "That, the amount is large, and the tube is full." ”
Lu Xiucai said with disdain: "Vulgar, vulgar." ”
Bai Zhantang was about to get angry.
'Bang'
"Don't let people sleep?" Li Li pushed open the door and said.
Guo Furong stepped forward and dragged Li Li over, "If you can't make a big mouth, you have to leave." Let's figure it out together. ”
Li Dazui took Li Li's hand and said, "That's right, Li Li." Your big-mouthed brother didn't get you a supper to eat.
You've got to help me! ”
Li Li smiled: "Just for this matter!" You can rest assured, the shopkeeper was just angry at the time, even if you couldn't make 80 signature dishes.
The shopkeeper won't embarrass you. ”
Seeing that Li Li couldn't help, Li Dazui said angrily: "It's not you who cooks, of course you said it lightly." That's going to cost you a deduction from your wages.
With the careful eye of the shopkeeper, he may remember when, and maybe he will use this matter to settle accounts that day. ”
Bai Zhantang pushed Li Dazui, "Go!" Don't talk nonsense. ”
"Then you'll come up with a solution for me!" After Li Dazui finished speaking, he picked up the baggage, "It's nonsense, I'll go first." ”
"Oops, hey, hey!"
A group of people hurriedly grabbed Li's mouth.
Guo Furong and Lu Xiucai grabbed and said, "Big mouth, don't go!" We won't get used to it when you're gone! ”
"Then you should hurry up and think of a trick!"
Bai Zhantang clapped his hands on the side, "Wait." We're all friends, and we don't want to talk big, right? I really can't, I can only think of a bad move.
We're going to play a trick on the shopkeeper. ”
Bai Zhantang looked downstairs and saw that Tong Xiangyu upstairs didn't find it.
beckoned, and began to whisper his bad idea.
Several of the conspirators sat at the table.
Just waiting for Tong Xiangyu to taste.
When the crowd was restless, Li Li watched all this silently from the side.
In Li Dazui's explanation of deceiving fools, Tong Xiangyu's face began to slowly turn black.
"Forget it, I don't embarrass you. You make me two cold dishes, four hot dishes, plus a soup and a dessert. That's all right! ”
Li Dazui breathed a sigh of relief, "No problem, it's wrapped around me." ”
"Wait, I have one more request. These dishes must be new, they must be strange, and they must be unheard of.
If there is one that is heavier than Yihong Mansion, you just wait! ”
After waiting for Tong Xiangyu to go upstairs.
Li Li immediately grabbed Li Dazui's shoulder, "Look at it, I'll say it." The shopkeeper still understands you very well. If you honestly admit that you can't make those, you can't cook a few dishes, and you won't be like this. ”
Li Dazui shook off Li Li's hand, "Take care, everyone, I'm going home." ”
Several people hurriedly stopped Li Dazui.
"Don't worry! Think again, think again. There's always a way. ”
"What is there to think about. Cooking is nothing more than cooking, stir-frying, frying, frying, roasting, stuffy. Where can the new go again? ”
Bai Zhantang slapped Li Da's mouth behind his back, "If you say you're stupid, you're not smart." You won't replace the boiled with the fried, and the fried with the stuffy~
If you change the same dish, won't it become new?
What's wrong with your eyes? ”
Guo Furong and the others desperately glanced at Bai Zhantang and asked him to look behind him.
And Tong Xiangyu stood at the top of the stairs and watched.
Bai Zhantang continued, not noticing it at all.
In desperation, Li Li could only cough dryly, "Shopkeeper, what do you want to eat, just let the big mouth make it for you." yes, big mouth. ”
Li Dazui hummed a few times.
Bai Zhantang also reacted, "I was wrong, and I was very wrong. ”
Tong Xiangyupi said with a smile: "Then where should you be now?" ”
Bai Zhantang immediately ran out and shouted, "Guest officer, please stay, please accept my sincere blessings." ”
Tong Xiangyu glanced at the few people below again.
Li Li hurriedly pulled his big mouth and ran to the kitchen.
Come to the backyard.
Li Dazui pulled Li Li and didn't let go, "Force! You can't count on Big Brother Bai, so it's all up to you to make ideas. ”
Li Li pushed a few times but didn't push it away, and he didn't dare to use too much force, "Don't worry!" I have also eaten and seen the Lord of all things. Besides, Lao Bai's set doesn't work at all. Just look at me!
However, I don't know the specific method and the ratio of materials. I can only describe it. ”
Li Dazui patted his chest and said, "You don't have to worry about this, just leave the details to me, you can just come up with ideas." ”
Li Li followed Li Dazui into the kitchen.
Li Dazui asked, "How do we make the first dish?" ”
"First of all, there are two cold dishes, and the effect of these cold dishes is appetizer. So how do we get sour? ”
"But the shopkeeper said that it should be new and strange, unheard of, and unseen."
"Then we can only start with the ingredients."
Li Li began to give Li Dazui ideas in the kitchen.
After a busy period of work.
The dish is finally ready.
In Guo Furong's emotional shouting, "The Tongfu Inn Tasting Conference starts now." ”
Bai Zhantang, who was already hungry outside the door, jumped in all of a sudden.
"Let's start with cold dishes. Hot and sour fish scales. ”
Li Dazui followed Guo Furong's broadcast and lifted the plate.
"Fish scales? Hot and sour? Tong Xiangyu stared at the plate of fish scales in front of him with wide eyes, and a fishy smell mixed with a sour taste and the smell of chili peppers came to his face.
Tong Xiangyu leaned back, almost unable to hold the chopsticks in his hand.
"Can I eat this?"
Li Dazui retorted: "Why can't you eat it, cats can eat it, shopkeeper, you can taste it!" ”
Tong Xiangyu picked up a piece of fish scales, "Why is it so fishy?" ”
Li Li said on the side: "This fishy is right, after the sun is stuffy, the taste of this fish scale has been preliminarily processed, so that the original smell of the fish scale is exuded."
After soaking in vinegar, the scales of the fish are softened so that they are not too hard and affect the taste.
Finally, add the chili sauce prepared by the big mouth.
Taste a bite, the chewiness of the teeth, a strong fish umami began to emanate in the mouth, fresh with sour, sour with spicy, spicy in spicy, spicy in this fishy.
This dish is exceptionally appetizing. ”
After hearing this, Tong Xiangyu frowned and shouted, "Next." ”
"Next, mix shredded chicken intestines."
Tong Xiangyu sniffed, "Why is there still a smell of wine?" It's raw, right? Can this still be eaten? ”
Li Li immediately explained: "This dish is a great test of the knife skills of the big mouth, and it is necessary to cut the raw chicken intestines into shreds. Then mix well with the seasoning.
Of course, the shopkeeper can rest assured that these shredded chicken intestines are blanched with boiling water, and they are exactly three times cooked. Before blanching, the wine was soaked for a few hours to kill the virus. ”
Li Dazui also explained: "This is the same as those fish chests. ”
Tong Xiangyu picked up a letter suspiciously, put it in his mouth and chewed it, and his face turned white.
Li Dazui was still urging on the side: "Shopkeeper, you have to chew a few more times to eat the essence of this dish." ”
Tong Xiangyu looked at Li Dazui, and swallowed the contents of his mouth without saying a word.
The heart said: I smelled a smell of wine, and as soon as I chewed it, a smell of came out. God knows what I'm eating!
Resisting the nausea, "Next, next." ”
"Next up is a hot dish, braised grapes."
"Braised grapes?"
"Of course it can be boiled! Look at how good this color is! It's best to garnish with a little more chopped green onions. Lu Xiucai said.
Li Dazui humbly accepted: "No problem, I'll improve it next time." Next! ”
Guo Furong sang: "Crispy fried watermelon rind!" ”
Tong Xiangyu asked, "Watermelon peel is crispy?" ”
"The flesh is not easy to fry!" Li Li explained on the side.
Li Dazui introduced: "This dish is after I peeled off the green skin on the outside and the flesh on the inside, leaving a slightly green skin. It tastes crispy on the outside and crispy on the inside. ”
"Next!" Tong Xiangyu hurriedly shouted.
Guo Furong lifted the bowl and shouted: "Charcoal roasted pig intestine!" ”
Tong Xiangyu used chopsticks to flick a black thing on the plate twice, and asked, "Can this thing be charcoal-grilled?" ”
Li Dazui said, "Why can't you." Don't insult my professional skills as a chef. ”
Tong Xiangyu inserted chopsticks, and a stream of pale red blood began to slowly emerge from the charcoal-grilled pig's large intestine, which was not cooked at all.
Tong Xiangyu didn't want to ask anything more, "Next one." ”
"Steamed yellow croaker!" Guo Furong said.
Tong Xiangyu immediately laughed together, "Hahaha, there is a dish opposite." ”
"The name is the same as the dish! They are steamed with water, and we are steamed with soup. Li Dazui explained.
Tong Xiangyu asked suspiciously, "Soup?" Where does the soup come from? ”
Li Dazui began to say, "I haven't been willing to pour the leftover vegetable soup from cooking for so many years. It has been left until now. Use him to make a thick pot of vegetable soup, that's ...
Li scratched his head, and after thinking for a long time, he couldn't come up with words to describe it.
"Ten miles of incense!" Lu Xiucai immediately took over the conversation and said.
Li Dazui looked at Lu Xiucai gratefully, and continued: "Yes, the fish steamed with it is the flavor of seven points, and it has been tempered for thousands of years!" ”
Tong Xiangyu felt that the more he listened to it, the more wrong it became, "Huh~Huh~", after rubbing the goosebumps that had risen, he asked, "What about the other three points?" ”
"Three points are here, soup and egg drop soup." Li opened the lid with a big smile.
Tong Xiangyu stretched out his head to take a look, and then he smelled a smell that seemed to be sour and non-sour, like stinky and non-sour, and didn't talk nonsense, and said with a wry smile: "Hehe, serve dessert." ”
Guo Furong lifted the last dish, "Pull out the chicken feet!" ”
Bai Zhantang took the lead, "Everyone applauds!" ”
'Bang Bang Bang'
Tong Xiangyu said with a smile on his face: "Very good, very good, very good." Eat it! ”
"Uh~"
A group of people looked at each other, but they didn't dare to move.
Tong Xiangyu continued to say with a pleasant face: "Eat." ”
"Uh-huh."
They all began to lower their heads, including Li Li, and only Li Li and Li Dazui deeply understood what these dishes were.
No one dared to touch the chopsticks.
Tong Xiangyu roared: "None of them are allowed to be left, who dares to waste food, this month's monthly money will be deducted." Eat! ”
A group of people picked up chopsticks, picked them up and put them to their mouths, but they all fell back on the plates.
Tong Xiangyu picked up a plate of chicken feet and handed it to Bai Zhantang, "Zhantang, come, gnaw on a chicken foot." ”
After Bai Zhantang took it, he immediately put it on the table and changed the topic: "Isn't there no customer in our store?" I have a good way, let's take care of one or two ox carts, how to block the official road. I can't even be beaten by officials. ”
Tong Xiangyu asked a little worriedly: "Why do you want to block the official road?" ”
Bai Zhantang stretched out his hand in front of Tong Xiangyu, "Don't bother, you give me the money for renting a car, and I promise to bring back a hundred guests for you." ”
After thinking about it for a while, Tong Xiangyu said, "Follow me upstairs to get the money." Then he suddenly turned his head and said, "You are not allowed to eat at all." ”
At this time, Li Li hurriedly jumped out, even if he didn't eat the dishes on this table, he would suffer if he smelled it.
"Shopkeeper, please stay. I have a good idea for that, too. Our shop is also a little famous in the town, but there are still many people who don't know about it.
So, we just need to print some lists to promote our store and send them out.
Everyone knows that there is a store called our Tongfu Inn.
When they want to have a treat, or eat something good by themselves, they will think of our store, and the guests will not come!
Of course you'll have to give me the money to print the list. ”
Tong Xiangyu knew that this was a good method as soon as she heard it, and it would be effective for a long time. "Well, that's a way to do it. Or you kid has a flexible brain. Let's go upstairs together and get the money. ”
After Tong Xiangyu finished speaking, he led Bai Zhantang and Li Ligang up to the door of the second floor, turned his head and looked, "Hmm~!" ”
The few people who just wanted to slip away all went back to the table again, picked up the chopsticks and clamped them all around, but they didn't clip them.
After it was determined that Tong Xiangyu had entered the corner of the upper floor, a group of people ran away, and even Lu Xiucai burst out at the same speed as the big mouth.
