After nearly two hours of running around and tossing and turning in multiple vegetable markets, Qi Hao finally returned to the rental house with a large bag of ingredients.

Next, it's time to get serious about cooking.

First, pour water on the soil, and chop the lotus roots and lotus leaves, then wrap them in bamboo shoots with a coat and put them in the oven to bake.

However, when Jiang Wujie made it, the soil used was black silt from the bottom of the lotus pond.

As for the difference, Qi Hao really hasn't studied it in particular.

Besides, he didn't have a channel to get this kind of black soil, but the basket of ordinary soil in front of him, when Qi Hao went downstairs to dig the flower bed, he was almost not caught by the people of the property.

Then there is the jayfish.

Aside from the strict requirements for ingredients, its method is actually not complicated, which is to wrap the fish and wine in lotus leaves, and then steam them in a pot.

Finally, the material is not harsh, but the process is relatively complicated.

After all, this dish starts with making tofu.

Fortunately, it is modern now, with the existence of soybean milk machines and juicers, Qi Hao naturally does not need to rely purely on grinding beans and beating lotus leaf juice by hand as in the system world.

There is also the current soybean milk machine, which also has a heating function, so after the well-beaten soybean milk is poured into the pot and mixed with lotus leaf juice, it only takes a while to boil the soy milk.

Next, it's the magic tofu ordering session.

Because it is necessary to make old tofu with a tight texture and a solid taste, the coagulant here is brine.

After the green tofu was formed, Qi Hao began to carve it into the shape of a lotus pod.

Knife work is also an assessment course in university practice.

So in this regard, he also has a certain foundation, but he is only limited to carving some simple objects, such as the image of ancient beasts such as phoenixes and unicorns, Qi Hao can only bow down.

After the tedious steps, the next step is the normal operation.

processing mandarin fish;

boiling "Fisherman's Three Fresh Soup";

And after all this is done, the time has been imperceptibly until one o'clock in the morning.

However, because he slept for an afternoon, Qi Hao did not feel sleepy at all.

Of course, there is also his dedication to cooking.

In the past, when I was in college, it was common to stay up all night looking for the perfect ratio of seasonings for a dish, but now this situation is nothing.

......

From the kitchen, bring the finished three dishes to the table.

As for another dish, pomegranate powder, because rouge was used, Qi Hao could only give up for the time being.

After all, a big man ran to the store to buy cosmetics, how to think about it and how to feel strange...

Sitting at the dining table, Qi Hao chose the lotus fish bun for the first time.

It may be because the proportion of lotus leaf juice blending has not been adjusted well, and the color of the tofu this time is not deep, and it is far from being as bright as in the system world.

However, the light green lotus pod, paired with white mandarin fish lotus seeds, the combination of the two is really eye-catching.

After dipping it in the fisherman's three fresh soup, it tastes rich, fragrant on the lips and teeth, and has an endless aftertaste, which makes Qi Hao's eyes shine.

The texture of the old tofu is dense, the flesh of the mandarin fish lotus seeds is firm, and the freshness of the lotus flower is blended, which raises the taste of the whole dish to a new level.

"I can't believe that ordinary ingredients can be made so delicious!"

Soon, Qi Hao ate the four tofu lotus houses on the plate, and turned his attention to the other two dishes - Pang Lin Xian and Bi Tube Fish Bream.

I thought that these two dishes could also bring surprises like lotus fish buns.

However...

After being baked in the oven, the moist soil has become dry and stiff, and when it is cracked, it is a bamboo shoot that is soft and overflowing with water, and the thick smoke rises from the center, wafting out a simple earthy smell.

According to Jiang Wujie's standards, this fresh bamboo shoot should have the fragrance of lotus.

But in fact, not only that, but the image of bamboo shoots is also wrinkled like a dried radish, and the beauty is completely lost.

As for eating it, it's like chewing a puddle of mud...

Fail!

As for the other turquoise bream, needless to say.

The moment you open the lotus leaves, the aroma of the wine is indeed there, but the taste is very strong, mixed with the taste of wine, the spicy and salty taste of the fish, and even an unknown and disgusting taste, which chokes people's tears.

Looking at the scene inside the lotus leaf, on the turbid soup, there are all kinds of ingredients for making fish bream, garlic, chili flakes, and even a few fish scales...

Exactly like swill.

This time, Qi Hao didn't even have the courage to taste it, so he hurriedly re-wrapped the lotus leaves that had been steamed until they were soft.

Although Qi Hao's operation is different from Jiang Wujie's production steps in terms of raw materials and cooking techniques, at least there are more than 80% of the reproduction parts.

Even if you are a novice in the industry, you won't be able to do this, not to mention, you have more than five years of cooking experience.

"Could it be that the system is a moth again? It's not a dish on the map, and it's particularly unpalatable when I reproduce it? ”

Qi Hao muttered.

But in any case, these two dishes cannot be sold in restaurants.

Lianfang fish buns are okay, as for how to price them, he also took advantage of this moment and thought about it.

A lotus fish bun, which contains a total of four lotus houses, and the ingredients are almost half a mandarin fish.

And today, I went to the market to buy mandarin fish, and it cost more than 100 yuan for a single one, and then I added lotus pods, lotus leaves, beans and other accessories, and the cost of a dish was 60 yuan, which is definitely not an exaggeration.

Then according to the double premium, Qi Hao finally set the price at 128 yuan!

......

【Hotel renovation completed...】

【Store name: Gimpo Banquet】

[Level: Lv.2]

[Experience: 8/5000]

[Account amount: 222 yuan]

Early the next morning, Qi Hao saw a prompt message that the update had been completed.

After 12 hours, the hotel has also been upgraded.

However, the so-called upgrade is nothing more than an expansion of the dining area by 60 square meters, and then the addition of 10 sets of tables and chairs with the same configuration.

As for the decoration, as well as the display of each area, it is still the same as it was.

Although the white dining environment can indeed make the mood of diners feel very open, it is too pure and monotonous after all.

Therefore, in the next two days, Qi Hao began to prepare for the opening of the hotel.

In terms of decoration, some small ornaments were added to render the atmosphere, and then a few paintings were hung on the white wall, and a few pots of green plants were bought to put in the dining room.

In addition, at the cashier at the bar, he also bought a blackboard, on which chalk was used to handwrite the dishes currently sold in the restaurant and the prices:

[Gold wire wrapped in silver: 168 yuan]

【Lotus Room Fish Pack: 128 yuan】

And all this overhead is taken from the system account.

Although there are not many things, there are also a few thousand yuan smaller, so now the account has become negative again:

[Account amount: -2731 yuan]

After finishing his work, Qi Hao went to the vegetable market again and bought more than 2,000 yuan of ingredients.

Then go back to the hotel to deal with it, lest it open the next day, there may be too many customers, and you won't have time to prepare.

As a result, this is another big project ...
