Chapter Thirty-Nine: An Ordinary Bowl of Slurry Water

", Master Zhou!"

"Hey, it's really Master Zhou!"

"Obediently, Master Zhou is here, I don't know if there is oral administration today!"

When Zhou You came in, in the hall, not only the waiters, but also a few familiar faces happened to bump into each other, and immediately left the table and immediately greeted them.

After the last meal, I don't know how many people couldn't sleep when they went back, they inquired in many ways, but they only knew that Master Zhou only knew Zhao Chengjun, and it didn't seem that he would come to Chuanhai Restaurant to cook!

For a while, disappointment swelled up, and some people began to plan to go to Lingqu Village, especially those who were older, but they had been suffering from no introduction.

In these years, it is much more difficult to live in the countryside than to rent in the city, especially after the homestead is not allowed to be bought and sold, of course, the most important thing is to go to a strange rural area, if you don't know anyone, I'm afraid you will suffocate to death.

Some of the faces were very unfamiliar, so Zhou You could only nod at everyone, which was regarded as a greeting.

Later, when Li Hang and others saw this scene, they immediately felt honored!

"Tsk, Brother Zhou is so popular!"

"Nonsense, with Brother Zhou's craftsmanship, it's not popular wherever you go, let alone a restaurant!"

"Yes, if Brother Zhou opens a restaurant, I will definitely go to work more than I go to work!"

"Awesome, so am I!"

When the few people sat down, the waiter hurriedly served tea, but they knew that even the boss had to beg to come.

After a while, Zhao Chengjun came down from the stairs with an anxious expression.

Seeing Zhou You, he hurriedly came up: "Brother Zhou, you're finally here!" ”

Seeing this, Zhou You said, "Okay, let's talk about it, what's going on!" ”

Zhao Chengjun was in a hurry, otherwise Zhou You would not have come so late.

"That's right, I have a friend, a very good friend, his old father is almost here, and he wants to eat a bowl of noodles!"

Face?

Zhou You raised his eyebrows, and the locals in Longshi eat rice and noodles, but some of them only like to eat rice or noodles.

So this is an old man who likes to eat noodles?

"What about the type?"

"It's a homely long noodle!"

"Got it!"

After a brief understanding, Zhou You gave Li Hang a few simple words of advice, and then walked towards the back kitchen.

"Master Zhou!"

When Zhang Yu saw Zhou You, it was like a drowning person pulling a life-saving straw, and even his anxious expression was a little calmer.

After saying hello, I only asked some things about the old man, such as how the teeth are, where they are, and so on.

You must know that the same dish, different places have different opinions, which is also called following the local customs.

Pasta is available in both the north and the south, but there is a big difference between the north and the south.

Generally speaking, the focus of southern noodles is not on the noodles themselves, but on the soup base or toppings.

However, the focus of the noodles in the north is on the noodles themselves, and the focus is on the strength and softness of the noodles themselves......

The old man who wants to eat noodles is in his eighties, and although his teeth are okay, the noodles must be slightly softer.

Whether the noodles are good or not, you should start by kneading the dough, of course, there are many classifications of flour on the market now, what high gluten, medium gluten, low gluten and so on.

It's a little different, but it's not that big.

Traveling around, in an instant, the chef in the back kitchen decisively surrounded him, stood obediently, and looked like a student.

Every chef starts as an apprentice, and if you can go from an apprentice to a chef, you must know that you can learn independently.

So such a great opportunity, they are impossible to miss.

Kneading dough belongs to the basic kung fu of the white case, it can be said that all pasta dishes such as dim sum, buns, dumplings, etc., need to start from kneading the dough, similar to the cutting pier of the red case!

Zhou You is not stingy, kneading the dough while talking about his steps and why he did it!

Soon, the pieces of dough were taken out of the porcelain basin by Zhou You and placed on the cutting board!

"It's just the dough mixing, and the next step is the most important step, kneading the dough, if you want the dough to be smooth and strong, this step is very important!"

Kneading dough is a hard job, especially some noodles need to be a little harder, so they will borrow the strength of the body, not the strength of the arms.

The others looked at it seriously, and the dough, which was originally a little pitted, began to slowly become smooth, and under the ingenuity of nine shallow and one deep, the pores on it also disappeared little by little.

Finally, the dough was completely smooth, and the noodles on Zhou You's hands were gone.

Cover the dough and let it go first!

Take advantage of the gap and start preparing the toppings!

According to Zhao Chengjun, that old man Meng is a native of Longshi, and the home-cooked noodles in Longshi are either noodle soup or long noodles with slurry water, as for what beef noodle soup noodles are, ordinary people will not make them at home.

Potatoes, celery, leeks, carrots, tomatoes, etc., are used as the main ingredients.

Soon, a tomato topping is ready, and the sour smell fills the air, and you can't help but mouthful!

At this time, the noodles have also woken up, and Zhou You began to use a rolling pin to roll out the thick dough little by little!

Nowadays, the slurry water long noodles are generally pressed out by machines, but in the past few decades, many people did not have a machine for pressing noodles at home, so they could only rely on the craftsmanship of their mothers at home.

The dough is rolled out and slowly gets bigger and thinner, eventually becoming a round shape, similar to a pancake!

Sprinkle a little flour to avoid sticking together, then fold the noodles briefly, and at the same time, pull out the kitchen knife on the side!

Brush Brush Brush!

The knife fell, and strips of noodles of the same thickness and size were cut out.

"Tsk, this knife worker, I don't know how much effort it takes!"

Even if they are fellow chefs, everyone present is not only secretly speechless.

What?

Chefs should have this job?

Yes, but there are also high and low levels of the same knife work!

Didn't you see that after Zhou You dropped the knife, there was really no trace on the board?

Soon, the noodles were cut, and Zhou You grabbed the cut noodles again and began to shake them constantly.

The noodles that had been stacked on top of each other finally spread out and became long noodles.

At this time, the water in the pot was also boiling, and I threw it in, stirred it a few times with chopsticks, and after a few minutes, I took out the cold water!

This is an important part of the noodles, and the other most important part of the slurry surface is the soup!

The slurry water surface is sour, so it also has an alternative name for sour noodle soup.

But in fact, there is nothing in the soup, just heavy vinegar, and the general use is Xishan aged vinegar!

Soon, the eight bowls of slurry water surface were passed through the soup one by one, and then the tomato noodle dish that had been fried long ago was added!

"It's done, let's go!"

Zhou You wiped his hands and untied his apron.

Zhao Chengjun hurriedly waved his hand: "Hurry up!" ”

As he spoke, he licked his lips, and he saw the production process without missing anything, and it was not even different from what other masters did, but ...... But he felt that the slurry made by Zhou You was delicious.
