What to fear
Dad Yu slid down the wall and sat on the ground, with the unknown liquid flowing from the crisper in his hand, and in an instant, the whole room was filled with a sour smell.
He smiled miserably and was very sorry for his daughter: "It's all my fault, I know that Wang De has the intention of making trouble, so I take it too lightly." ”
It's just that I didn't expect this person to be so despicable. On weekdays, there are a lot of dirty things in the back kitchen, but this is a major event related to the reputation of Jinfulou, and Yu Jianguo never expected Wang De to be so confused about right and wrong.
Yu Jian groaned: "I'm afraid this is not only Wang De's handwriting. ”
"What did you say?" Dad Yu couldn't believe it.
Yu Jian turned around, picked up the crisper box from the ground, and smelled it, it was vinegar. The lotus paste that had been soaked in vinegar had changed color, and a layer of white foam appeared on the surface.
Anti-lotus seed ...... Without lotus paste, the main ingredient, I am afraid that this dish will not be able to be made.
"Wang De is just a chef, although he is in charge of the back kitchen, he can't touch the foundation of Jinfu Building. I'm afraid that from beginning to end, this is just a game set up by Han Yubai. Jin Lao's banquet, let Dad be your chef, and then today's closed ......" are all one ring after another, which makes people unguardable.
"Impossible! This Jinfu Building is the property of their Han family, who will do stupid things with the foundation? Father Yu categorically denied it.
Yu Jian sneered and looked at his father fixedly: "Although I don't know what Han Yubai has in mind, I don't believe it without his hand behind this." ”
"Not bad! I didn't expect you to see through this girl. By the door that opened and closed, there were suddenly a few applause, Yu Jian turned his head sideways, and a tall figure stood there, it turned out to be Han Yubai, the small boss of Jinfulou.
Han Yubai walked into the storage room step by step, his high-end suit was straight, and the upper of his shoes was shiny, which was incompatible with the miscellaneous vegetables piled up around him.
He frowned unnaturally, his fingertips touching the tip of his nose, perhaps smoked by the strong smell of vinegar.
walked up to Yu Jian and looked at her with a hint of appreciation in his eyes: "Your name is Yu Jian?" How do you know that I asked Wang De to do this? ”
"Have you read a book?" Yu Jian asked him rhetorically.
Forehead...... What does that mean?
Han Yubai was stunned by her cold question, and his face was full of question marks.
Yu Jian said slowly: "The ancients; 'At the beginning of man, nature is good. But I'm a champion of sex through and through. I also understand the truth that people are good and are deceived by others. My father was a good old man, but kindness is not a reason for you people to bully. ”
Han Yubai listened to her words, his eyes narrowed dangerously, no one dared to talk to him like this.
What does she mean, he Han Yubai is a wicked person?
Snorted coldly, what is there to justify with such a little girl: "What do you know?!" The Tao is different, not conspiring with each other! ”
Then he turned to Father Yu, and his words were even more indifferent: "Master Yu, I gave you a chance, but you choose my father, then tonight's banquet, don't let him down." ”
After finishing without a trace, he walked straight out of the kitchen.
Father Yu lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking. After a long time, he muttered a few words weakly: "I'm not scared. ”
??
Yu Jian thought that she had misheard, so she leaned closer and asked him, "What are you muttering?" ”
"I said, I'm not scared! Boss Han has the grace of knowing me, and I can't betray him no matter what I do! What reform adapts to market demand is just an excuse for not wanting to stick to one's heart! Boss Han has worked hard for Jin Fulou all his life, and when he is old, he still has to watch the signboard fall to the ground? ! Dad Yu seemed to have been opened up to the second pulse of Ren Du, and he complained like pouring beans, "Ah-if you want to make Boss Han lose face, I, Yu Jianguo, am the first to disagree!" ”
Oh roar –
Yu Jian looked at his father with admiration, and sure enough, the rabbit would bite when he was in a hurry, which forced the good man to a desperate situation, and the momentum exploded, and the power was unimaginably huge.
"But...... This most important dish ruined ......" Yu's father looked at the crisper box in his daughter's hand distressedly, and spoiled the ingredients.
Yu Jian's gaze also moved to the lotus paste soaked in sour vinegar, and suddenly, a lightning bolt flashed through his mind. I vaguely remember the last years of Emperor Wu, he liked to eat radish, and after the chef pondered, he made a heavy sour and spicy dish, which Emperor Wu ate and appreciated, and later became a famous dish in Luoyang.
This is the "peony swallow vegetable".
The sour taste reminded Yu Jian that the people of Datang have a strong taste, and the sweet and sour are greatly reflected in the dishes. Although Jin Lao is from Chaozhou, the whole table menu basically caters to the taste of his hometown, and a sour and hot dish can also temper the appetite.
Besides, the current situation is urgent, and it is impossible to make lotus seed paste again, so it is better to adjust the food list.
Father Yu was still secretly annoyed, constantly shaking his head and sighing.
"Dad, we still have a chance." Yu Jian said, although his expression was serious, he was slightly relieved in his heart.
"Oh, how do you say?" Father Yu heard something in her words.
Yu Jian told him what he thought, and Yu's father touched his chin and thought about it.
"Girl, are you sure?" He has heard of this peony steamed dish, but it is said that the process is complicated, and the requirements for knife work and carving are extremely high, the shredded radish should be as thin as bird's nest silk, and the peony should be gorgeous and blooming, which is an extreme test of the chef's skills.
These are all Yu Jian's strengths, don't brag, her basic skills are more than a star and a half better than Yu's father.
He winked playfully and said to his father, "Don't you still believe me?" ”
Father Yu looked at the grimace she had worked so hard to make, and finally showed a smile.
Since it has been decided to fight, there is no retreat! Old Boss Han, Yu Jianguo will definitely not let you lose face!
Yu's father swore in his heart and threw himself into the battle with his daughter.
The shredded radish in the peony swallow dish is the soul, Yu Jian picked and picked in the basket, and finally found the big white radish that fits the eyes.
The radish should be clear and clear in color, without a trace of impurities. Yu Jian peeled the radish skin, cut the radish into long strips, and visually measured the length of the radish shreds.
I found mung bean flour again, spread it evenly, and put it in a steamer to steam.
After fifteen minutes, remove and put in the freezer for flash freezing.
Then, Yu Jian began to work on the side dishes. Blanch oyster mushrooms, shredded lean pork and fungus, drain and add oil to the pot, put vinegar first, fully integrate the vinegar, pour the ingredients into the rapid slide and stir-fry, and set aside.
Stock is also the key to this dish. Yu Jian took out the chicken soup that had been boiled yesterday, poured it into the pot, added the crucian carp that had been stir-fried to remove the smell, boiled over high heat, and then turned off the low heat and simmered.
Within twenty minutes, the soup in the pot was already milky white, and a peculiar aroma emerged after the chicken and fish were mixed. Yu Jian stared at the soup for a moment, and the spoon in his hand was precisely cooked, only taking the two spoonfuls in the center of the tumbling.
Father Yu had already prepared a golden soup pot, and when the soup was put into the pot, Yu Jian added the side dishes and shredded radish in turn, and in the end, only the peony flowers remained.
Peony is known as the king of flowers, in addition to grace and luxury, but also rich fragrance. Datang's dishes are full of form and spirit, and they are the pursuit of the beauty of artistic conception.
Father Yu put a large piece of chicken cake steamed in the steamer in front of the table, and Yu Jian changed the thin knife and carved it with his head buried.
In a moment of movement, the shape of the flower comes out. She shook her hand and said to Yu's father: "The knife is a big ......" is really not good, this knife is already the smallest and thinnest in the kitchen, but she still doesn't have it easy to hold.
Yu Jian already misses the knife she used when she was in the Tang Dynasty, the flying knife that was as thin as a cicada's wings.
Father Yu stared at the chicken cake in her hand and said perfunctorily: "I'll give you a knife later." ”
Yu Jian took his assurance to heart, and his hand sped up.
Five minutes later, a bright and flickering rich peony was placed in the center of the golden soup, indescribably gorgeous and gorgeous.
