Chapter 24: Food for the Sky 2
I remember in a training class, the lecturer said that the restaurant is not about the more dishes, the better, the focus is on taste and service quality, so he also made recipes according to this standard.
The recipe he formulated only has ten hot dishes and ten cold dishes, all of which are dishes that he has eaten and feel very delicious, such as the most common braised pork, spicy chicken, sweet and sour fish, braised lion's head, etc., considering that this place is close to the Taoist Academy, make a few snacks suitable for students in the store at the entrance of the hotel, such as pancakes and fruits, egg scones, xiao long bao, dumplings, fried noodles, etc.
After formulating the recipe, he rushed to the back kitchen and asked the chef to make it for his guidance, and strive to successfully make all the dishes within two days.
He has eaten these dishes and knows whether the taste is authentic, except for the braised pork and home-cooked ones, he can make them, and the rest depends on the understanding of the chef here, and there is a problem when he makes the spicy chicken, and the spicy condiments here are only mugwort and mustard.
He thought to himself that these were grainy ingredients that didn't look good when cooking, and they didn't taste spicy, so it seemed that he had to find a substitute.
Then there was another problem, and the chef asked what kind of dish tofu was, and he had never heard of it.
When experimenting with pasta, Zilin wanted to lift the table because of the frustration, the noodles were hand-rolled noodles, which seemed to be the case, but after the mouth, he pulled his throat, and there was no strong and smooth feeling at all, like the noodles had small thorns.
He came to the noodle jar to see, this is far worse than the earth's noodles are too rough, the naked eye can see the unground seed particles, he asked people to find fine gauze as a sieve, filter out the large particles in the flour, and then make noodles, this is to get back the feeling of the earth's noodles, if you do this food, it is too wasteful of flour, a pound of noodles can sift out two or two small particles.
Some condiments, such as soybean paste, soy sauce, etc., have never been heard of by the Blue Star people, and how to make a delicious food with excellent aroma without these things.
For a whole day, he was hit and his body was incomplete, the room was remodeled according to the appearance of the hotel, and the signboards were hung up called "Food for the Sky", but the world couldn't find what he wanted, you said depressed.
He summed up the reason for the failure, which was that he took it for granted, only considered superficial things such as topography, and did not investigate the food structure in depth.
The reason why he can make money in college is because he thinks of doing it, sums up experience in the process of doing it, and if he thinks of not doing it, he fulfills the sentence "A thousand roads at night, and selling tofu during the day", so he decided that no matter how difficult it is, he will open a restaurant.
The staff continued to work every day, the waiter asked Xin Qingqing to lead the study of the service manual he drafted himself, the chef practiced the dishes that could be cooked, and he himself went out to find condiments and improve the noodle grinding technique here.
On this day, he and Xiaobai came to a village behind Jinfeng Mountain, which was a place to provide flour for Xi Yuncheng, and there were stone mortars in front of every house, and the sound of bang
There is not even a stone mill here, Zilin thought to himself, no wonder the flour is so rough, mainly because there are no corresponding tools, he turned around and left, and walked towards another village, which is the village where the stonemasons are concentrated.
He came to a stonemason's house, and saw that the stonemason was carving a stone slab with an iron chisel, so he talked to the stonemason, he wanted to make the stone grinder, and he had never seen other grinding equipment and did not know the principle, the stonemason understood when he heard it, and promised to make him a small stone mill tomorrow and send it to the hotel.
On the way back, Xiaobai began to think about it again, asking him when he would eat Xianlian, and not letting him mess with these useless things.
Zilin said, "Do you remember where you can find those plants I told you?"
"Come to think of it, in the plain between Bala Mountain and Ji Mountain in the south of the Western Wilderness Country, this place is more than 20,000 miles away from Xiyun City, do you want to go? With your cultivation, it will take ten days to fly, if you eat the fairy lotus, I guarantee that you will be able to call back and forth in two and a half days, how about it? To eat or not to eat?" Xiao Bai tempted.
Zilin gritted his teeth and said, "You can tell me what your reaction will be after eating, I have to be mentally prepared in advance." ”
"I'll promise you're okay this time, and to be honest, I've just figured it out now. Xiaobai said.
He said in his heart, what you say every time is crazy, but I die every time, but for the sake of my own career, I endure it, anyway, I can't eat the dead, I fly more than 20,000 miles a day, it's too tempting, and after eating the fairy lotus, I also know how to preserve the holy fruit, and I can also know how to recover my body, I decided to fight.
Back to Shiweitian, everyone is busy, it is not suitable to eat Xianlian during the day, he came to the kitchen again, used flour to add salt and batter, and then added a little red berry juice, boiled into the color of soy sauce, he tasted a mouthful of taste, salty and a little fruity, and finally developed another seasoning.
In the dead of night, when it was time to cultivate, he took out the travel cup, the fairy lotus was still so crystalline, the house was full of fragrance, he picked it up and measured how much he ate today, and then opened his mouth, at this time, Xiao Bai flashed over, and directly knocked all the fairy lotus into his mouth with his hand on his head.
Xiao Bai patted his chest with his head again, and before he could react, there was a grunt that the fairy lotus was in his stomach, so frightened that he hurriedly retched and buckled his throat, but he just couldn't vomit, there was already a warm current in his stomach, he didn't dare to delay, and meditated into a state of cultivation.
This is what Xiaobai told him, as long as he enters the state of selflessness, any reaction will be automatically blocked by the body, and the aura will automatically introduce Jindan into true qi, and the absorption rate is higher, and he has already taken the fairy lotus once, with the foundation of transformation, it will definitely not be as painful as last time, and last time Xiaobai also ate the immortal fruit for the first time, so he has no experience to share with him.
After ten breaths, he entered the realm of selflessness, and at this time, the medicinal effect also took effect, as if the spiritual energy of essence followed the meridians all the way to the Jindan, and wrapped the Jindan in the blink of an eye, and the Jindan spun wildly, and the true qi in the body was surging.
His internal organs began to turn golden little by little, and after about four hours, all his organs turned golden, and instead of returning to flesh like the muscles of his legs, they remained golden, and all the meridians of his body also turned golden, no longer the milky white they used to be.
He woke up from his meditation, and found that his body was shining with golden light everywhere, as if he had become a golden man, and his heart was shining like the sun.
Zilin knew that he had entered the middle stage of Jindan, and it was a sign that his internal organs had turned golden, in fact, his dissection was still flesh-colored, but his inner vision or his eyes were golden.
Jin Dan is also twice as big, and he also understands why he can fly quickly, because the development of various organs is uneven due to acquired reasons, some people have spleen deficiency, and some people have kidney deficiency, so that the transformation of the five elements will be affected by individual weaker organs, and the energy transformation is not perfect, while in the middle stage of Jin Dan, it is to make all the internal organs balanced and reach the best state, so that the energy output will be efficient and smooth.
Xiaobai didn't sleep, and when he opened his eyes, he said, "Now I can teach you the Five Elements Spell, so I have a lot more protection in case of danger." ”
So Zilin began to learn the five elements of spells, the gold spell can simulate the true qi into the form of swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks to attack the enemy, and can also control metal objects to change their original form; wood spells can simulate the true qi into various plants; the water system can simulate the form of water, and can also manipulate the water in nature, because the essential attributes are the same; fire spells can control the fire in nature, and can also send out samadhi true fire, which is nothing but burning; earth spells can control the earth and escape thousands of miles.
As long as you know the principle of the Five Elements of Mutual Restraint, and you can switch the Five Elements spell at any time if you reach the cultivation standard.
Zilin controlled a piece of silver, stretched it into a long strip and then bent it into a ball, tried various spells, and his feeling was that the original control object was telekinesis plus true qi lifting, but now it directly resonates with the controlled object like an arm command.
Cultivating until now, except for flying like a fairy, I don't feel anything else, today I finally feel that I am a real immortal, earth escape, water escape, no longer need to carry a shock stick when I go out, when I encounter an enemy, I shake my hand, a flying sword appears out of thin air, and I want to attack wherever I want, just ask if you are afraid, think about it.
