Shopkeeper Liang's words, as if cold water was put into an oil pot, made the entire kitchen explode.

Su Qingluan's belly slandered: This fat man can really attract hatred to her!

Sure enough, after listening to the words of the shopkeeper Liang, the chef Xu Yuanwei's brows twisted into a pimple, and he glared at Su Qingluan: "The shopkeeper, aren't you making fun of me?" ”

waved his hand at Su Qingluan and drove people away: "Little girl, go aside, this is a stove room, it's not a yellow-mouthed child like you who is here to have fun!" Then he turned and yelled, "What are you seeing?!" Get to work! The guests are waiting for you! ”

Shopkeeper Liang didn't say anything, with an expression of watching a play.

Su Qingluan looked at the master opposite, and always felt that he was a little kind, but he couldn't remember it.

But she didn't rush to get close to the other party - in this case, it is more convincing to show some real skills than to set up a relationship.

"I have a few questions that I would like to ask the master." Su Qingluan gave a salute to the chef opposite.

Although Xu Yuanwei doesn't like to see this little girl who broke into the back kitchen, he is not an unreasonable person. Seeing that the other party saluted first, he suppressed his temper and said, "You ask!" ”

It doesn't seem to be a stubborn person who doesn't make sense.

Su Qingluan nodded secretly, so she asked unhurriedly, "That fish soup has passed through your hands?" ”

"It's me, how?" This fish soup is one of the hottest dishes in the "Hung Fu Lou", and although it sells average in summer, it is very popular in winter.

Su Qingluan shrugged: "Not much." ”

Before the other party was obviously angry, she said: "The fish soup has white pepper, ginger, Sichuan pepper, bay leaves, star anise, cardamom, ......."

Originally, Xu Yuanwei listened disappreciatively, but the more he listened, the more shocked he became, until Su Qingluan said: "There should still be a few medicinal herbs, perilla, cinnamon, and angelica...... The rest is less certain......"

"You wait!" Xu Yuanwei looked shocked, "You tasted it all yourself?!" "It's not 100% right, but it's nine times out of ten.

He turned around and asked behind him, "Which of you is talking too much?!" ”

Su Qingluan sighed: "Don't do their business, I came to 'Hongfu Building' for the first time today, and these spices are all unique in taste, and it is not difficult to distinguish them when you taste them carefully." ”

At this moment, whether it is Xu Yuanwei or Shopkeeper Liang, as long as the little lady in front of her is afraid that she has some real skills in cooking, her expression is also solemn.

Xu Yuanwei asked Su Qingluan to follow her to the main stove, and arranged all the important work to the cooks and apprentices below, before turning around and asking, "Tell me, why is my fish soup 'not good'?" ”

Su Qingluan asked rhetorically: "Master thinks, what is the most important feature of fish soup?" ”

"Of course it's delicious!"

"Since 'fresh' is the first thing, then the word 'fresh' can't be dominated by the taste on the side." Su Qingluan pointed out sharply.

Xu Yuanwei has also been in charge of cooking in this "Hongfu Building" for many years, and he immediately understood the shortcomings of the fish soup pointed out by Su Qinglu:

Although a large number of spices and herbs hide the earthy smell of the fish, at the same time, the deliciousness of the fish meat is completely obscured, and the fish soup tastes spicy and slightly bitter.

Although it can be used to warm up and ward off the cold in winter, it is not very delicious.

Xu Yuanwei glanced at Su Qingluan and cut off: "You little girl really doesn't have a backache when she stands and talks." Don't I want the fish soup to be both delicious and unearthy? ”

It's like some people don't go to the top exam, is that because he doesn't want to?

"Blackfish won't have such a rustic ......"

"Oh, what a big breath!" Xu Yuanwei snorted coldly, "Do you know how much a black fish costs, is that what ordinary people can afford?" ”

Even if the "Hongfu Building" can afford to go to the guests on the second floor, in the final analysis, the restaurant is just a small town.

A restaurant in a small town is destined to have no delicacies such as dragon liver and phoenix brain, so the ingredients of the fish soup are also selected from the most cheap and easily available carp.

Naturally, the earthy smell of carp needs to be masked with more spices.

Although it is also expensive, compared with the fierce and expensive black fish, spices and medicinal materials that can be stored in large quantities for a long time have become the best choice for "Hongfu Lou" in comparison.

Su Qingluan smiled: "Why don't you try my method of making fish soup?" ”

Under the suspicious eyes of Xu Yuanwei and Shopkeeper Liang, Su Qingluan walked to a spare spare desk next to him, chose a slender narrow-bladed knife, and stared at it with shining eyes.

Being furious by the gaze that can almost be described as "hungry and thirsty", Xu Yuanwei couldn't help asking, "...... You okay? "It looked like I was going to swallow the knife in one gulp.

Su Qingluan sighed with envy: "Is this the fine iron knife?" I've never touched it in my life! She was right, she hadn't touched the Iron Knife since she crossed over - it was too expensive!

Xu Yuanwei: ......

Liang shopkeeper: ......

Just when the two of them were speechless, they saw that Su Qingluan's originally scattered gaze suddenly became sharp.

I saw that she quickly fished out a carp that was one and a half feet long and jumping alive from the water tank, rolled a damp towel cloth on the outside of the fish body to prevent slipping, flipped her wrist, and slammed twice according to the fish's head.

The carp's tail twitched slightly, and then it didn't move.

Disemboweled, scraped the scales and removed the gills, this time Su Qingluan did not hit the fish body with a knife, but removed the carp's skull and backbone, and the rest of the meat slices were sliced.

In the past few moments, the movements are neat and fast, and the knife is easy to use, not to mention those apprentices who peeked over, even Xu Yuanwei was secretly surprised: This girl is actually a knife worker!

What the hell is she going to do?!

I saw her take out a porcelain jar the size of a palm from her bosom, pour the contents on the carp slices and bones, and rub them repeatedly.

"What did you add?" Xu Yuanwei took the small jar and sniffed it next to his nose, raising his eyebrows, "...... this?" ”

Xu Yuanwei glanced at Su Qingluan, and saw that she didn't stop herself from picking up the jar, so he simply handed the jar to Shopkeeper Liang and sniffed it.

Sour hooks are very common wild fruits, and the two of them naturally smelled them at once, and the jar was a puree made of fresh "sour hooks".

Although Shopkeeper Liang knew that Xu Yuanwei disdained to do those indiscriminate deeds, seeing that Su Qingluan didn't mind revealing the "secret recipe" at all, he couldn't help but remind:

"The little lady shows the recipe in front of us so easily, and she is not afraid that I will take it for herself?"

Now, Shopkeeper Liang also guessed the meaning of the little lady in front of him - I am afraid that there is a better fish soup recipe and wants to sell it to "Hongfu Building".

It's not that Hongfulou hasn't encountered such a cook before, but they always negotiate the price before they are willing to hand over the recipe to Boss Liang completely.

Like the little lady in front of her, not only did she not hide it, but she was the first person to show it generously in front of everyone.

Su Qingluan's hands kept moving: "I believe that Boss Liang is a long-term person, and he will definitely not do such a thing as fishing with all his might." ”

Shopkeeper Liang smiled meaninglessly: "What if I prefer to 'fish with all my might'?" ”
