149Two small dark clouds drifting on a sunny day
When Xu Zhe came to Song Xingye's house, he found that the girl had already prepared all the ingredients.
Tomatoes, eggs, pork, chili peppers, lotus white ...... Of course, there are also essential seasonings such as green onions, ginger, garlic, etc. One by one, they have been taken out of the plastic bag. Those vegetarian dishes are put in a basin and soaked in water.
"My mother said that you need to soak it for a while and wash it several times to wash off the residual pesticides on the vegetables."
Song Xingye said this, and saw that Xu Zhe had already rolled up his sleeves and started to work.
The girl obediently stood beside him.
Xu Zhe picked up the piece of meat first and asked, "How do you want to eat it?" ”
Song Xingye was more cautious: "Let's start with a simple method." ”
"Okay, then make a chili stir-fried meat, it's very simple. This meat should be sliced and not too thick. In fact, my knife skills are not very good, so in order to reduce the difficulty of cutting meat, you can put it in the refrigerator for a while, and then cut it when it is hard. I usually think about how to cook meat dishes first, because many recipes require meat to be processed in advance. Such as soaking, pickling, and the like. ”
As he spoke, Xu Zhe put the piece of meat in the refrigerator and froze it.
Then he explained: "Generally, there are two ways to cook meat, either for a long time or for a short time. For a long time, it is stewed meat, roasted meat, etc., and it takes more than an hour, or even two or three hours, at every turn. I don't have a pressure cooker at home, and I don't see you either, so if you want it to taste good and be able to bite well, the heat must be in place. Another way of thinking is to slice and shred the meat in a short time, or chop it into minced pieces, attack it on a high fire, and quickly fry it......"
"Wait a minute, wait a minute!"
Song Xingye realized as he listened to it that he had forgotten a link in his preparation today.
So she hurried out to find a blank notebook and pen, and then went back to the kitchen and began to take notes seriously.
Xu Zhe couldn't help but smile: "You learn to cook the same as in class, you deserve to be a top student." ”
Song Xingye said seriously: "Because there are a lot of knowledge points, I think it should be written down." ”
Xu Zhe: "Okay, then I'll continue...... Where did it go? ”
Song Xingye raised his hand as if he was in class, and then spoke: "Two ideas for making meat!" ”
Xu Zhe: "Oh, in fact, I just summed up my own experience. If the texture of the meat is to be tender, it needs to be marinated in advance. Salt, white pepper, green onion and ginger water are generally put on the marinated meat to give a little base taste, remove the fishiness, and make the taste tender. Then add some starch and then some oil. Some people can add MSG, or you can also make an egg white, but for beginners, I try to simplify the steps that can be simplified. ”
The girl's pen walked the dragon and snake, and the sound of "swish" was endless.
Xu Zhe: "Of course, you don't have to marinate meat, you can fry it directly." My personal favorite fried shredded beef is like this, not to be tender, but to have a charred texture...... Well, with that said, let's go back to the chili stir-fried meat. Anyway, you seem to be okay with spicy food, right? ”
Song Xingye nodded, but hesitated for a few seconds, and made a 'little' gesture with the pen: "Don't eat too spicy." ”
"This green pepper isn't very spicy. Anyway, it doesn't seem to make much sense for me to talk like this now, so let's talk about it as I do. In addition to stir-fried meat with chili peppers, I will make two more dishes today, one stir-fried lotus white, and one scrambled eggs with tomatoes. It's all stir-fried, and it's quick to do it. ”
Xu Zhe looked at the main ingredients in the kitchen and quickly decided on a three-course meal for lunch.
Song Xingye still nodded: "Okay, listen to you." ”
Xu Zhe fished Lianbai out of the water and handed it over: "Tear it." ”
Song Xingye tilted his head: "Tear? ”
Xu Zhe: "Some dishes don't need to be cut, it's better to tear them by hand." It's not technical, just make each piece about the same size. ”
Song Xingye looked at the lotus white, then looked at the pen and notebook in his hand, and said weakly: "I can't take notes like this......"
Xu Zhe smiled: "Learning is not just the way it is taught in school. Learning by doing can sometimes be more effective. ”
Hearing him say this, the girl suddenly became a little curious: "In addition to cooking, what else have you learned in practice?" ”
Xu Zhe: "Write code. It's very inefficient to just read a book like programming, it's better to practice with a problem, try to solve a problem, and then you know how to improve. ”
So Song Xingye put down the notebook and pen, picked up Lianbai, and began to tear it on an empty plate. The dishes that were torn off were put into that plate one by one.
Xu Zhe noticed that her movements still had a kind of rigor and seriousness that is unique to a good student. Even the torn dishes are neatly square. And of course, this speed can't be fast.
Xu Zhe said helplessly: "You don't need to use a knife, you need to tear it by hand, just because you need an irregular shape." It's pointless for you to tear up so regularly......"
Song Xingye was suddenly a little nervous: "Do you need irregular shapes?" ”
"Yes."
Before Xu Zhe's words fell, he saw that the girl's tearing method had indeed changed, and she had become deliberately irregular, and every piece torn off was like a puzzle piece. Every time she tore it, she became more serious.
Xu Zhe sighed: "Are you so serious about everything?" ”
Song Xingye stopped what he was doing and raised his head to look at him: "Huh? ”
Xu Zhe: "I mean, you are very serious in what you do. But in addition to studying, it will be very tiring to be so serious about other things. ”
Song Xingye said with a smile: "Shouldn't you be serious about learning to cook?" I don't have any foundation. ”
Xu Zhe changed his words: "Actually, I'm not talking about cooking, it's something else." For example, how do you control Tang Lingfei? ”
The girl's smile froze, and she just subconsciously asked, "What do you dominate?" ”
Xu Zhe: "Fei Fei was determined to follow me today, but after answering your call, she obediently went home." ”
Song Xingye just thought for a moment, and then said, "Because I told her that I was curious about your PSP, and she said that she could lend it out for me to play." ”
Xu Zhe: "It's that simple? ”
Song Xingye: "It's that simple. ”
The girl's smile returned to normal. It's just that from those two sweet dimples, Xu Zhe seems to see two small dark clouds on a sunny day.
He didn't think it was that simple. Even if it was indeed because of PSP, there should be other reasons why Tang Lingfei was in a hurry to go back. However, Xu Zhe found that he knew too little, and there were too many missing links in the logical chain, so it was impossible to find the right idea.
But in the end, it's nothing more than a little secret of two girls, right?
Xu Zhe didn't dwell on this question anymore, but said to return to the kitchen topic: "You continue to tear, I'll show you how to cut tomatoes." First of all, it is the principle of holding the knife, which must be ...... steadily."
Song Xingye nodded again and again while tearing it up, listening so seriously.

Tang Lingfei returned to Xu Zhe's home.
After knocking on the security door, I saw Aunt Zeng Jing standing at the door, puzzled, "Why are you back?" Didn't Xu Zhe come with you? ”
Tang Lingfei suddenly felt a little heavy. She used to say whatever she had, but today, because she hid Song Xingye from Xu Zhe about what she was playing with, she found that she needed to tell one lie after another to fulfill it. She wasn't used to this kind of thing.
But since he was already standing here, Tang Lingfei still said: "I want to borrow Xu Zhe's PSP, is it okay?" ”
Zeng Jing smiled: "Of course you can, he has already said that you can play with that thing, and he has no problem with it at your house." ”
Tang Lingfei: "Does he have no opinion?" ”
Zeng Jing: "What he said himself is no problem. ”
Hearing this, Tang Lingfei suddenly felt a little happy. PSP games are such an important thing, Xu Zhe is willing to let himself take it unconditionally, such an iron relationship, who else can compare?
