116 tasting

It's late autumn, the heat of the autumn tiger has passed, and the weather is getting cooler day by day, Gu Qing wants to open the restaurant as soon as possible, otherwise he will have to harvest the second crop of rice, and the shop will have to be delayed again.

The restaurant has been renovated, the dishes have been decided, and then Dong Rong and them are invited to draw pictures and write to make illustrated recipes.

For so long, under the guidance of Gu Qing, Zhu Han's cooking skills have been improving day by day, and Zhu Han will cook the dishes he eats every day at home with his eyes closed, some uncommon dishes, as long as the steps are listed, he can also make eight or ninety, cooking skills are not a big problem, the important thing is the matching of dishes.

During this time, Gu Qing went to understand the market, and the specialty of Zuixian Mansion is Babao duck, and the exclusive unique activity of Jixiang Restaurant is chicken and fish soup...... In short, most of them are made of chicken, duck and fish to make a delicious dish, and if a restaurant can have two unique dishes, the business will not be too bad.

"Chicken, duck and fish, we each launch a special dish, the meat is simple, braised pork or back to the pot meat, depending on what you are best at." Gu Qing thought about it and said, "As for chicken, there are actually more choices, stewed, fried, fried, and stir-fried, and they are all delicious, I thought of one, Yellow Braised Chicken, why don't you try this dish tonight." ”

Zhu Han's eyes lit up, this is a new dish name, and he can learn a dish again.

He said, "Can you make roast duck with duck, the duck skin is thicker, and it should be crispy when cooked......

Gu Qing nodded: "Roast duck is okay, try yellow stewed chicken today, try roast duck tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, try sauerkraut boiled fish." ”

Every household in the village made sauerkraut, and Mrs. Gu's house was particularly numerous, and more than a dozen jars were full of sauerkraut, sour beans, sour radish, and sour cabbage...... The sauerkraut used to make boiled fish is made from cabbage, and the pickled sauerkraut is cooked with the fish, and the taste is unforgettable.

As soon as the name of the dish was mentioned, Gu Qing's saliva secreted.

It's a good thing to open a restaurant at home, what do you want to eat in the future, let Xiaohan do it in the name of tasting dishes, it's perfect.

Gu Qing asked Gu Yu to catch chickens, they are all chickens that are only three months old, the meat is very tender, and it is especially suitable for making yellow stewed chicken...... When she came back from Ruyang City, she brought a large bag of dozens of catties of dried chili peppers, and lied that she bought it from a merchant.

The seeds of dried chili peppers, Gu Qing asked Yang Pei to stay, and plant them at the beginning of spring next year, and there will be chili peppers to eat in the future.

Before the yellow stewed chicken came out of the pot, a group of people in the family gathered around the smell, desperately sniffing the aroma in the air.

During this time, the family was busy, and every day it was those few dishes that were turned over and over, and this group of people had not eaten anything fresh for a long time.

Gu Qing smiled helplessly: "You retreat one by one, Rong'er, you come here." ”

Dong Rong hurriedly put down the book in his hand and immediately squeezed in: "Family master, please command." ”

"You look at the shape of this dish in the pot, you can see every detail clearly, and you will draw it later." Gu Qing assigned him a task, "This is a promotional picture, not realistic, the main purpose is to highlight the key point of this dish, and also to draw this rich aroma, which is mouth-watering when you see the painting." ”

Mo Li leaned over: "What about me, master?" ”

"What are you......" Gu Qing thought for a moment or two, "After eating, can you write a catchy limerick poem for this dish?" ”

Moli: "......"

Limerick poem, such an unserious poem, is it too big and overused?

"Eldest sister, let me come." Gu Nuo blinked his eyes and said, "Brother Ah Li and Brother Rong both said that I have a talent for poetry, let me try it!" ”

"You little bunny who doesn't even have all the hair." Mo Li picked him up and threw him aside, and finally he was able to behave in front of the head of the family, this guy actually wanted to intervene in a sideways, and it was in vain that he took care of him on weekdays.

"Limerick poetry, a trivial matter, it can be made today, the head of the family is waiting."

Gu Qing smiled: "Okay, then I'll wait, Yu'er, let's start the meal." ”

Gu Yu responded, and quickly put the yellow stewed chicken in the pot up, because it was a whole chicken, and put a lot of mushrooms to stew together, a vegetable bowl was still a little unfitting, divided into two bowls and placed on both sides of the table, this is today's main dish, and there are four auxiliary dishes, each dish is a large portion, and more than a dozen people can eat it clean every day.

"This yellow stewed chicken is so delicious!" Gu Nuo couldn't wait to swallow his tongue, "If you open a restaurant in the future, you will make a lot of money on this dish." ”

After Mo Li took a careful sip, he began to eat, and after eating about it, he said: "If the hotel makes this dish, one-third of the chicken is enough, and the price can be set at more than eight hundred Wen." ”

Yang Pei's eyes widened: "Eight hundred Wen ......"

The chicken on the market is about 20 wen a catty, and a chicken is almost 60 yuan, and selling it for 800 wen is like a sky-high price for him.

Gu Qing felt that 800 Wen was not cheap, but it was definitely not expensive.

The gap between the rich and the poor in this dynasty was huge, the poor could not eat a mouthful of food, and the rich people had three or four taels of silver for a set of clothes.

She nodded and said, "According to what Ah Li said, the yellow stewed chicken is eight hundred wen." ”

Mo Li put down his chopsticks and asked, "Can you think of the name of this restaurant?" ”

Gu Qing didn't have time to think about this: "This restaurant is our family's common property, do you have any good suggestions to discuss." ”

"It's very sad." Mo Li sighed, "The dessert shop is also a common industry, why is it called Qinghan dessert......"

He said, raising his head, "Why don't you tell Qing to leave the restaurant?" ”

Gu Qing: "......"

What does this restaurant have to do with this kid, can he be the shopkeeper or can he go to the shopkeeper?

She said earnestly: "Ah Li, your goal is a scientific expedition, and you are not involved in the affairs of the restaurant, so it is not appropriate to call this name!" ”

"Family master, since this is the case, it is better to call it Qing Peige!" Yang Peiheng interjected and smiled very happily, "Anyway, the shopkeeper of this restaurant must be me!" ”

Zhu Han didn't dare to speak, the dessert shop had already used his name, and the restaurant would use it again, for fear that he would be beaten by the three of them in a place where the head of the house could not see, he was invincible with two fists and six hands, so it was safer to remain silent!

However, this topic attracted the interest of Gu Yu and Gu Nuo, and both of them put forward their own opinions.

"Heavenly Tower, more courageous than Drunken Immortal Tower."

"Qiong Berry Garden, it sounds like I'd love to go in and give it a try."

The two mentioned a bunch of names, and Gu Qing always felt dissatisfied.

Gu Nuo propped his small chin and said: "The soap workshop is called Youshui Gu's, can the restaurant also have a similar name, so that outsiders will know that this is our Gujia Village's industry when they hear it." ”

Dong Rong said slowly: "How about the Gu family banquet, as soon as I heard the word Gu family, I knew that the owner's surname was Gu, and the word banquet improved the specifications of the restaurant." ”

Gu Yu nodded vigorously: "The Gu family banquet is good, I like it." ”

Gu Qing shook his head, "This name might as well be called Qing Peige!" ”

"Ahem!" Mo Li cleared his throat, "My limerick poem has come out,—— smooth and elastic yellow braised chicken, rich and fragrant, if you ask where the restaurant is good, Qingpei Pavilion in Youshui Town." ”

Dong Rong commented: "Although this limerick poem has no charm, it is catchy and good!" ”

"It's enough to make limericks, but serious poems are counterproductive, after all, not everyone knows how to compose poetry." Gu Qing still likes this catchy limerick poem, "Rong'er, you write this poem next to the painting, and after a few dishes are determined, you can take it to the city to find someone to color, frame it, and hang it in the restaurant when the time comes." ”

Dong Rong immediately nodded in response: "Good master." ”

The meal ended in a lively atmosphere.

Early the next morning, Mo left the position of the dessert shop as the head of the shop, Dong Rong followed up to paint, Gu Qing and Zhu Han continued to try the dishes, today is going to make roast duck, this thing is relatively complicated to make, and you have to make a hanging stove in advance, burn charcoal fire below, hang duck above, this heat is also difficult to control...... However, these things that seemed to Gu Qing to be very troublesome, Zhu Han liked to do them very much.

Throughout the day, in addition to eating and going to the toilet, the rest of the time was spent studying the heat and flavor of the roast duck, and I also took a piece of paper to record.

After Gu Qing taught the roast duck steps, she began to practice calligraphy, her handwriting was not good-looking, and she tried to write better, after all, there would be too much time to write in the future.

Evening main course, roast duck.

The first duck was scorched and tasteless, so Zhu Han had to kill the second duck, but fortunately it succeeded, otherwise a third duck would suffer.

On the table were two whole ducks that had not been cut into pieces, even if they were failures, they were golden in color, and a little red and burnt, and the aroma was mouth-watering, and the sound of swallowing saliva kept ringing.

Zhu Han stood and prepared to use the knife.

"Don't do it yet." Dong Rong opened his mouth to stop, "Wait a moment, let me write down the complete appearance of this dish first." ”

When the meeting is finished, he will still paint, this is the task assigned by the head of the family, and he must be extremely perfect.

Mo Li was still swallowing saliva just now, and now he straightened his back, his little brain melon seeds were running rapidly, and he was going to make a limerick poem about roast duck after eating.

After Dong Rong finished painting, Zhu Han took the lead in cutting a slice of roast duck and put it at the bottom of Gu Qing's bowl, and then said to the rest of the people: "There are two kinds of sauces here, sweet sauce and spicy sauce, you can dip which flavor you like." ”

At this time, Gu Yu came out with a dustpan: "Spring cakes are good, the eldest sister said that it is better to roll roast duck with spring cakes." ”

Mo Li lowered his head and handed the roast duck into his mouth, and was stunned for a moment.

This taste is even better than the roast duck he had eaten with his master in the capital a few years ago......

Could it be that he hasn't eaten roast duck for too long, so he has a problem with his sense of taste?

While Mo Li was thinking, the two roast ducks on the table had quickly become bones.

Gu Qing coughed speechlessly: "You all pay attention to eating each other......"

The family eats meat every day, why don't these people know how to restrain a little, they are all like bandits.

"I'm just too hungry, rude." Mo Li put down his chopsticks, wiped his hands, and suddenly became a young man again, "Drunk and dreaming of returning to Qingpeige, it's hard not to eat roast duck." ”

"It's a good limerick." Gu Qing laughed, "Ah Li is still quite talented in poetry." ”

This limerick poem is catchy, and you will understand what is going on as soon as you hear it, if you don't come to Qingpei Pavilion to eat roast duck, you will be drunk and dream about it every night, and you will be tormented and scratch your liver.
