Chapter 7: Braised cattle specialization, craftsman ingenuity
"Welcome, two sisters, next time, come again."
"Wait for my dad to come back and let him be interviewed by you."
Lin Lan stood at the door of the noodle restaurant and waved to the two who left.
Although Meng Linlin asked Lin Lan to think about it just now, Lin Lan, who didn't want to be famous with Niu Xiaodao, still decisively refused.
γDing! The host's non-interview mission has been completed.]
Lin Lan, who returned to the kitchen, heard the system prompt.
"Then I'm ...... now"
Lin Lan was about to ask the system how to distribute [braised beef], the production method of this dish, and countless knowledge was poured into his brain.
In an instant, there were countless times of the braised beef production process, which was replayed in Lin Lan's mind. Until you learn and learn thoroughly.
"Brother Lan, at noon, I received more than 800 in cash."
Du Mingfei counted the money in the cash register and returned to the kitchen.
"Well, there should be more than 500 people who scan the code."
Lin Lan came back to his senses from the ocean of knowledge of braised beef.
Today's business is really quite good, selling more than 1,300.
The price of each bowl of noodles at Qingfeng Noodle Restaurant is 10 yuan.
Lin Lan made so many bowls of noodles, and he didn't feel tired.
"Okay, now there are no guests, in the afternoon, let's go play ball."
Du Mingfei, as a sturdy young man, has been a waiter for several hours, but he is still full of energy.
"Okay, let's have lunch first, then go to the vegetable market, buy some vegetables, and we'll go play ball."
Lin Lan had nothing else to do in the afternoon except for braised beef.
Playing basketball is also one of his hobbies.
"Then let's eat! I'm dying of hunger. β
Du Mingfei carried a large bowl of fried noodles and ran out of the back kitchen.
"Goo-Goo......
As soon as Du Mingfei shouted like this, Lin Lan was also hungry, and since he got up in the morning, he has eaten a bowl of tomato egg noodles.
The newly made tomato and egg marinade is really very unusual.
Lin Lan just smelled it, and felt that he could eat three bowls.
"Brother Lan, where did your uncle and aunt go?"
Du Mingfei showed off a bowl of fried noodles, and brought a new bowl.
"They...... I don't know, but when I woke up in the morning, I saw a text message from my dad saying they were on a trip. β
Lin Lan's chopsticks stopped in mid-air, in fact, he still doesn't understand why his parents suddenly disappeared.
Although he was on a trip, he just felt that something was wrong.
"Haha, they went on a trip, Brother Lan, you stayed at home. You're so miserable, haha......"
Du Mingfeile blossomed, and almost laughed a few times.
"Okay, don't be too happy, if they don't come back for a day, you won't be able to escape, come and help."
Lin Lan said slightly angrily.
"No, Brother Lan, you're trying to fix me!"
Du Mingfei suddenly turned into a bitter gourd face.
"Okay, hurry up, wait a minute, I'm going to play."
In fact, Lin Lan is just teasing Du Mingfei. If Lin Feng and the others don't come back in a few days, Lin Lanke will have to find a waiter to help.
Soon, the two of them left the noodle restaurant after lunch.
Head to the farmer's market not far away to buy ingredients.
The business at noon is so good that the tomatoes and meat in the noodle restaurant are no longer enough, in addition, Lin Lan came to the vegetable market mainly to buy beef tendon meat, and its quality will determine the taste of braised beef.
This farmer's market is the largest in the Old Town, and the variety of dishes is endless, and it's still very fresh.
Lin Lan came to a stall selling meat.
"Boss, come twenty catties of beef tendon meat, the fresher the better."
The owner of the butcher stall was very happy.
"Yo, what a coincidence, the beef tendon meat was sold out in the morning, and it was just sent over, Lin Lan, you wait, I'll cut it."
In the entire farmers' market, no one doesn't know Lin Lan.
This is not because of his eye-catching appearance, but because of the famous name left by Lin Lan's grandfather here.
Grandpa taught Lin Lan since he was a child that chefs must talk about conscience.
From the beginning of its establishment to the present, no matter whether it makes money or not, the raw materials used in the noodle restaurant must not be shoddy.
Once, Lin Lan's father, Lin Feng, was once cheated by a vegetable seller, bought insects of green vegetables, and let Lin Lan's grandfather find out.
The vegetable vendors who were blocked by the old man and scolded had to bow their heads and admit their mistakes, so they let these vegetable vendors go.
Since then, no one has dared to play tricks with the Lin family.
"Lin Lan, why do you buy so much beef shank meat, your noodle restaurant, do you want to develop new dishes?"
The butcher stall owner handed the wrapped beef tendon meat to Lin Lan.
"Well, you're welcome to eat, eight hundred, I'll sweep it over."
Beef tendon meat is forty pounds and forty, and after Lin Lan finished paying, he pulled Du Mingfei to buy other things.
Now on Lin Lan, in addition to the 1,300 yuan that the noodle restaurant got from the noon noon business, it is only 1,400 yuan.
Beef tendon meat, pork, vegetables and other ingredients, after buying a pass.
Lin Lan still has 1,700 yuan left.
After buying the ingredients, Lin Lan immediately returned to Qingfeng Noodle Restaurant.
The brine of braised beef, the noodle restaurant originally had it, day and night.
Lin Lan added some more medicinal herbs to the brine, and went to process ten catties of beef, first cutting them into large strips, dividing them into multiple batches, and putting them in a pot of cold water.
Bring to a boil over high heat, then change to medium heat and cook for 2~3 minutes, then wash the meat with warm water.
Immediately in a large pot, add the washed beef and plenty of cold water.
After the cold water is boiled, skim off the foam and pour in various spices and the special brine of Qingfeng Noodle Restaurant.
Lin Lan, who has [Braised Beef Specialization], did this without any delay, and the proportions were controlled very accurately.
"Gurgling ......"
With the addition of the spices to the large pot, bring to a boil again.
A strong smell of Chinese medicine spices spreads.
"Brother Lan, it's so fragrant! When will you be braised beef. I remember your noodle shop never sold this. β
Mu Mingfei sniffed the fragrance of the air and swallowed his saliva.
"I will, that's a lot, you'll see you later."
"Let's go, let's go play."
Lin Lan turned off the fire on the stove.
You don't need to do anything now, just wait for the beef to marinate overnight, and tomorrow you can slice and eat.
"Okay, then I'll run home and get the ball."
Lin Lan watched Du Mingfei run away and followed out.
Noodle restaurants are generally less business-friendly at night than at noon.
A lot of advance preparation is not required.
The place where the ball is played is a street basketball court.
In the past, there were a lot of people who played here, but as the city center shifted, fewer and fewer people played here.
Before Lin Lan came to the basketball court on the street, he saw a few sports cars parked on the side of the road from a distance, which was very cool.
"Huh? How can there be a rich second generation playing here. β
Lin Lan, who was puzzled, saw the three people playing in the court.
"Brother Lan, let's go, let's go play."
Du Mingfei, who went home to get the ball, slapped the ball and walked to Lin Lan's side.
"Mingfei, have you seen them?"
"No, but, I've heard that someone recently started a sports car club around here, and it may be these people."
"These guys are terrible!"
