Chapter 6 Tofu Brain

The two walked side by side in the rare ingredients area, which also attracted the attention of many people.

The vast majority of people in this area are knowledgeable and knowledgeable.

Seeing Kobayashi Gentian holding the crocodile egg, everyone's expressions suddenly stiffened in place.

They couldn't believe it, what was such a beautiful girl doing with a crocodile egg? It's also terrifying.

Gu Chen and Xiaolin Gentian didn't care about the eyes of the people around them, and just walked in the cherished ingredients area.

The two walked to a corner and found a small vendor,

This vendor is dressed as an old man.

However, the goods he sells are quite distinctive, giving Gu Chen a kind of intimate feeling.

When the old man saw Gu Chen and the two coming, he immediately beckoned the two to sit down.

"Two people want something." The old man also looked enthusiastic.

"Let's take a look." Kobayashi Gentian said.

"Okay." The old man also nodded, and then gave some suggestions: "The ingredients here are all from China, there are fermented products such as sauerkraut, kimchi, laba garlic, and sauces such as Lao Gan Ma oyster sauce, if you are interested, you can take a look."

Hearing the old man's words, Gu Chen's eyes lit up, "Uncle, do you sell tofu here?" ”

This brought back memories of the old man, who had also sold tofu in the market before.

But this group of people basically doesn't buy it, maybe they can't get used to it, or they may not know how to cook.

So it was only sold for one season and then it didn't sell again.

"If the young man has a need, he can follow me into the store, although there is no tofu, but there is a stone mill inside." The old man said with a smile.

After hearing the word stone mill, Gu Chen knew that there was a play.

"Then you're welcome." Gu Chen nodded.

"Okay, then you come with me!" The old man also smiled.

Following the old man, the two came to the dark room inside, and on a table was a stone mill.

The old man also began to tell the history of the stone mill, "The origin of this stone mill is extraordinary!" The old man also began to talk eloquently: "This stone mill has existed since my grandfather's generation, and there are ......"

Gu Chen and Xiaolin Gentian also listened quietly, waiting for the old man to finish introducing the stone mill.

The old man was also very happy to see Gu Chen listening carefully.

He continued, "Actually, when I was little."

The old man also fell into memories: "My family opened a tofu shop, and the conditions in my family were not very good at that time, so my grandfather learned to do business by himself."

"At that time, although my family's economic level was not rich, it was not poor, and my grandfather was also very smart, and the tofu he made tasted good."

"Soon the reputation spread, and the business of the tofu shop was very prosperous, and it also supported a large family."

"However, later because of an unexpected accident, the tofu workshop suffered a huge disaster." The old man said with a sigh.

"Since then, Grandpa has been in a slump and died soon after."

"After that, even if I searched the whole town, I never tasted that taste of tofu again."

"In recent years, I've tried to make tofu, but it doesn't taste like that at all." The old man shook his head.

"I see you both have a thick layer of calluses on your hands, you must be chefs! And I'm interested in tofu. The old man paused and said, "Can you do me a favor?"

"Uncle, please say, if I can help you, I will definitely be duty-bound!" Gu Chen said with a smile.

"Then I'll take care of the food." Kobayashi gentian quipped.

Hearing that the two agreed, the old man also showed a smile of relief, and he continued: "When you make tofu, make an extra portion, I also want to taste it."

Gu Chen looked at the old man's expectant expression, and was also slightly stunned, thinking, this old man has a true love for tofu!

Gu Chen couldn't refuse, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll try to make as many copies as possible."

When the old man heard it, he was also very happy, "Then it's troublesome for you, remember to call me when you're ready, if you make the taste of childhood, then I'll be content." ”

"Okay, uncle, don't worry!"

The old man nodded and left.

After that, Gu Chen and Xiaolin Gentian also began to get busy.

In the old man's warehouse, Gu Chen found a large bag of soybeans.

It also took a lot of effort for him to drag it to the stone mill.

The two of them first sifted the soybeans and selected the plump soybeans.

Wash it and soak it in water, and I don't know how long it will take, and the soybeans will be full of swelling.

Gu Chen put the soaked soybeans into the grinding plate, and the juice of the soybeans slowly seeped out.

After grinding over and over again, it also begins to become delicate.

This is followed by boiling and filtering.

In the process of filtering the residue, the soy milk becomes mellow, and the flavor of the tofu comes out.

The next step is the finishing touch, which is often called brine tofu in China.

He used a small spoon to stir the soy milk forward constantly, slowly adding the salt brine.

The original soy milk also began to have fine clumps and began to thicken.

Gu Chen also deliberately slowed down, and when the stirring was almost done, the next thing was to wait for it to stand.

Finally, after half an hour, the epidermis had solidified and turned into a milky white solid.

At this time, the tofu is still very tender, that is, it is in the state of tofu brain.

【Tofu Brain】

Evaluation: The tofu brain just out of the pot is extremely fresh and smooth.

Rating: 80

Seeing the evaluation of the system, Gu Chen was also relieved, and he didn't overturn.

"Is this done?" Kobayashi Gentian asked.

"Of course not, but it's ready to eat." Gu Chen replied.

"Then hurry up and try it." Kobayashi Gentian also can't wait.

Gu Chen smiled, used a spoon to hold three bowls of tofu brain, and made a simple seasoning.

【Salted tofu brain】

Comment: The tofu brain just out of the pot is extremely fresh and smooth, and the sauce is just right.

Rating: 85

Seeing the system's score, Gu Chen also understood for the first time that seasoning was also a plus.

After being certified by the system, Gu Chen also had some confidence: "You can taste it!"

"What about you!" Kobayashi Gentian said.

"There's one more step to complete over there, so you can eat first!"

"Then you're welcome!" Kobayashi Gentian took two bowls of tofu brain, and then drank it with a happy face.

At this moment, Xiao Ming's gentian's expression began to become exaggerated.

"It's delicious, isn't it?"

Kobayashi's vision began to blur, and the whole person seemed to be a world away.

When I opened my eyes, I found that I was in another world.

What's running around?

What is that white and tender thing?

It's tofu.

The tender tofu changes in the mouth, which is simply the invasion of soybeans.

"This, this, this is delicious! I've never eaten anything so interesting! Kobayashi Gentian said excitedly.

Then more intense feelings followed,

He felt that the pores all over his body seemed to be filled with this feeling, and his whole body was comfortable.

His body also broke through the shackles of clothes and went to another world.

Playing happily with the tofu elf, the whole person seems to melt.

fell into a whirlpool that he couldn't extricate himself from, and with one bite after another, the whole person fell deeper and deeper.

"Ah~ what should I do."

When Kobayashi Gentian came back to his senses, he found that the tofu brain in the bowl was empty.
