Oyster baked chicken pot
The ninth day of the first lunar month, for a long time.
The Yu restaurant quietly hung up the sign that was in business, and the beige lights that had not been seen for a long time were also lit up.
Zhou Xiaoyan spent the whole holiday counting the days repeatedly, and finally survived to the day of work, so excited that she didn't sleep all night.
Today, it took several layers of powder to cover the dark circles under the eyes. But that still doesn't affect her good mood.
After supervising her aunt to clean the whole restaurant, she ordered the newly bought rosin, which was the inspiration she got from the TV series, which was said to help enhance the olfactory atmosphere of the restaurant.
She is the daughter of Yu Jianping's friend, the family is not short of money, and she wants to find something to do, so Yu Jianping will let her be an idle greeter, and supervise the work at the front desk by the way.
This job can be regarded as her wish, the boss is not annoying, she can take jobs when she has them, and she can be fed often. She didn't want to leave.
If she could, she felt she could do it until retirement.
The sound of Didi at the back door interrupted her train of thought, and the two brothers of the Yu family came, driving into the back alley, most likely with the goods.
Zhou Xiaoyan put down her phone and ran to help. Sure enough, there were already several white foam boxes at the door, and there was the sound of shaking water inside.
She asked curiously, "What is this?" β
Yu Jianguo was sweating profusely: "Oysters, just transported from Rao Township." β
I have to say that Wang Ke, this kid is very efficient, as soon as they walked on the front foot, the oysters on the back foot were already packed on the road. I just called them, and the first thing I said was: "Uncle, the oysters have arrived, right?" β
The first table of the year was set by Jin Changguo. The old man has taken a fancy to that big box for a long time, and he has to be the emperor of the soil and be the first person to enjoy it while there are many people in the New Year.
After coming, he didn't forget to show off to his old friends and rivals: "Look? They all said that it was a good place...... "Haven't you been here?" When you can eat, it's the time you should be most amazed!
"Then why didn't you bring us with us earlier?" There are also people who blow their beards and stare at him, but they can't see him and choke him.
Unexpectedly, Jin Changguo was not angry at all, he only glanced at him vainly, and snorted: "What are you bringing here for?" Do you want me to block it? β
It can be seen that this is usually the mode of dialogue, where no one can get good from each other.
"Hey...... I said you are Jin Changguo......" The old man rolled up his sleeves and wanted to reason with him, but was stopped by others.
"Lao Li, this Chinese New Year, don't you want to say a few words?" The man who grabbed him whispered to persuade him.
Li Qingbai lost his hand and turned his head angrily, just like a child who couldn't get sugar.
In the back kitchen, Yu Jianping opened the box, a salty and wet smell of sea water came to his nose, and only six oysters were placed in each box, which was already covered with the bottom of the box, and the slippery moss that was still clearly visible on the oyster shell was clamoring for its freshness.
Yu Jianping is going to make a few unique oyster dishes for the old men to try, and the first dish is the oyster chicken pot.
Blanch the black film off the surface of the abalone for 30 seconds, take the slightly cooked abalone out of the shell, clean it and change it with a flower knife.
Chop the chicken and marinate with seasonings. Heat the pan and fry the chicken until browned on the surface. Find a casserole again, fry ginger, garlic and onions with base oil, add a spoonful of Zhuhou sauce and stir-fry until fragrant, pour the chicken into it and stir-fry, then add shiitake mushrooms and seasonings, and simmer without water.
When the chicken is almost cooked, bring the stock to a boil, add the abalone, and bring to a boil over high heat.
The oysters slid into the soup at the moment of opening, sprinkled with a few green onions, and the fragrance made the waiters waiting for the food swallow.
And Yang Jianxin, who had been smelling the fragrance in the back alley for a long time, was about to grind his fingernails on the wall, and he wailed: "Why are you so greedy for me during the New Yearββ"
β¦β¦
The old men in the big box watched the waiter come in with a charcoal stove, and they were still wondering, could it be that this is a hot pot to eat?
When the same huge casserole came, it was a little restless. It's so fragrant.
"Oyster chicken pot." As soon as the lid was lifted, the aroma rushed into his nose, and the old man straightened his head and looked at the middle of the table.
Charcoal fire Xiaowen, the casserole is still gurgling and bubbling, and the top is covered with a layer of fat oyster meat, I don't know who praised it first, and the old man is not calm.
"Here, let's go!" Jin Changguo knew that this must be a new dish made by the two boys of the Yu family, and he had already itched his teeth, so he hurriedly raised his chopsticks after making a little appearance.
An old man exclaimed, "This oyster meat is so big!" β
Jin Changguo looked at the oysters on the chopsticks, and it was really big, and he took a bite of it, hmm...... The freshness of the chicken juice, the tenderness of the oyster meat, and the juice flowing all over the mouth, are so delicious that they are simply indescribable.
"Hiss-so hot-" Li Qingbai took a bite of the abalone, even if his mouth was hot, he was reluctant to spit it out, and hurriedly took a sip of warm tea to relieve the heat in his mouth. Immediately after that, I took a bite with chopsticks, the meat was tender and the taste was refreshing, and it was so satisfying to go down one by one!
There are also those who are fascinated by the taste of chicken, and those who can't stop after taking a bite of shiitake mushrooms......
Jin Changguo looked at the old men who were usually dignified and sanctimonious and now had no image at the dinner table, and he was so happy that his tail was about to.
After eating the oyster pot, there is also oyster frying, which is the hometown dish that Jin Changguo misses. The surface of the oyster is crispy, and the oyster meat is fresh and tender.
Probably knowing that everyone eats big fish and meat during the Chinese New Year, today's meal is mainly based on light seafood and fish, plus some vegetarian dishes and soup, and finally a plate of anti-sand taro as a dessert.
Everyone praised the food again and again. Even Li Qingbai, who was always working against Jin Changguo, praised stiffly: "You have a good eye for eating." β
The angry Jin Changguo wanted to roll his eyes again, and he would definitely not bring him next time.
When he left, a few old men secretly added the WeChat of the little girl at the front desk, thinking that Jin Changguo didn't see it, his eyes were pointed!
After the old buddies left, Jin Changguo shook to the front desk, took out a red envelope from his pocket and handed it over: "Help me give it to the two in the back kitchen." β
β¦β¦
When Yu Jianguo chased him out, Jin Changguo had already been picked up by the driver. He stood at the door at a loss with the not-so-thin Li Shi Feng, and Zhou Xiaoyan floated behind him again and said, "This is the tradition of the capital, and the elders always have to give the juniors New Year's money." β
"But isn't that already the payment for the meal...... the old man also took the whole amount, and paid hundreds of dollars more......
Zhou Xiaoyan shrugged, how could a man's mind be guessed? Maybe it's because people are stupid and have a lot of money??
As a result, when it was closed in the evening, Yu Jianping stopped her, and when she was puzzled, he handed her a red envelope and said to her with a smile: "The tradition of the capital." β
