Chapter 19 New Dishes for Old Diners
When Feng Ruoruo was very happy in the kindergarten, Feng Yifan was also very busy in Su Ji Small Restaurant.
Due to the publicity of old diners yesterday, there are more old diners who come to the small restaurant today. Especially after yesterday's publicity by the old diners, I learned that the old taste of Su Ji is back, and many old diners even made a special trip from far away in the city.
This is also due to the fact that the area around Lao Cai has been developed and rebuilt one after another, so many residents who originally lived in the vicinity have moved to other parts of the city.
Some old diners haven't even come to Su Kee for two or three years.
Stepping into the familiar Su Ji restaurant again, seeing Su Jinrong who was already in a wheelchair, some old diners couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Old Su, I didn't expect that I hadn't seen you for two or three years, why are you like this?"
"Alas, it's really time that doesn't forgive, and we people are really old. ”
"Lao Su encountered such a big thing, why didn't he notify all of us?"
"yes, tell me, we're old fellows coming. ”
......
In the face of the enthusiasm of the old diners, a smile bloomed on Su Jinrong's stiff face, and he tried to open his mouth and said: "Thank you, thank you, I'm okay, everyone, sit, sit, sit, eat, eat......"
The old diners hurriedly sat down and comforted Su Jinrong one by one.
"Lao Su, don't say it, we all understand. ”
"Yes, Lao Su, you take care of your body and recover well. ”
"Fortunately, Lao Su, you saw people accurately back then, and you had such a good son-in-law. ”
"Yes, now that my son-in-law is back to take over, it's really time. ”
"Old Su, you can recover your body with peace of mind. ”
......
While the old diners chatted with their father-in-law, Feng Yifan had already prepared noon noodles and rice in the back kitchen, presenting the old diners with the taste they had eaten in Su Ji for many years.
When Feng Yifan walked out with a tray, he hadn't seen the noodles and rice on the tray, and the fragrance had already made the old diners impatient.
"Well, that's the smell, the fragrant chicken soup. ”
"Okay, good, I can finally eat the old taste of Su Ji again. ”
"Just smell it, this is the taste of Su Ji. ”
"Hahaha, Lao Su Guo will succeed someone. ”
......
Feng Yifan's first presentation to the old diners was noodles, not many bowls of noodles, but very plump.
The old diners gently opened the side dishes piled on top with chopsticks, picked up the noodles buried in the soup, and smiled when they looked at the golden noodles.
"That's it, Yifu noodles. ”
"Suck, oops, that's the taste, the noodles are fresher than the soup. ”
"It's great, it's very strong, with the aroma of wheat, chicken soup, and frying, good, it's really good. ”
......
Seeing that the old diners were very satisfied, Feng Yifan was also very happy, turned his head to look at his wife standing at the counter, raised his chin to his wife, and made a proud eyebrow.
Su Ruoxi was very happy to hear the praise of old diners, and felt that her father's small restaurant could finally be operated again.
Then she also thought of her husband who had the most credit, but as soon as she withdrew her gaze and looked at her husband, she saw her husband's proud look.
Su Ruoxi restrained her smile, pursed her lips and put on a look of don't be too complacent.
The young couple who have been separated for many years have been squeezing each other's eyebrows in the small restaurant.
Su Jinrong, who was in a wheelchair, suddenly spoke: "Yifan, come, catfish, catfish...... Lion...... Head. ”
Although his father-in-law didn't say it too clearly, Feng Yifan quickly understood what his father-in-law meant, which was to let him make a dish of "catfish tofu lion head", which could be regarded as a new dish for old diners.
In fact, Feng Yifan didn't plan to cook at noon, according to the tradition of Su Ji Small Restaurant, he always cooks at night.
However, many of the old diners who came here today now live far away, and they may have to rush back early in the afternoon.
Therefore, since his father-in-law spoke, Feng Yifan naturally did so and sent some benefits to the old diners.
Feng Yifan smiled and nodded to his father-in-law: "Dad, don't get excited, I'll go and prepare, you can chat with your uncles and aunts here, and I'll leave the rest to me, so that the uncles and aunts who came to cheer today will have fun." ”
Then, Feng Yifan hugged his fist goodbye to the old diners present and walked to the back kitchen.
After Feng Yifan walked into the back kitchen, the old diners couldn't help but have some expectations for the next dishes.
"I don't know, what does Lao Su's son-in-law want to do for us?"
"Hehehe, didn't Lao Su just say? ”
"That's right, the lion's head is Su Ji's signature, you must try it at this time. ”
"Yes, yes, I know that Su Ji opened the door and came by subway in the morning, for Su Ji's lion head. ”
......
Su Kee Small Restaurant, among the dishes that the most veteran diners talk about, naturally the lion's head must occupy a place.
At the beginning, Feng Yifan's father-in-law's ancestors were able to gain a foothold in this city, and operated such a small restaurant for several generations, making it a time-honored brand in the city, that is, relying on this lion's head.
The lion's head is actually a big meatball, but Su Ji has a variety of flavors.
In addition to the most traditional crab roe and clear soup, Su Kee's methods also include several different methods such as oil stew, sauce fragrant, and dregs marinated.
It can be said that the ancestors of Su Ji used to use hundreds of lion head practices to gain a foothold in the city.
And today, Feng Yifan was instructed by his father-in-law, so he naturally wanted to make a more unique lion head for everyone.
Catfish tofu lion's head.
This is the practice of Feng Yifan giving breakfast to his father-in-law, wife and daughter in the morning, using catfish puree and tofu to make lion's head, and then mixing the golden soup to supplement the seasoning.
Of course, to make it for the old diners at noon, Feng Yifan will not make it very small as in the morning, but make it the size of an orthodox lion's head.
Wrapped in ground catfish and tofu, it is still simmered in a bright chicken broth.
When seasoning, Feng Yifan had some changes, not only using the golden soup in the morning, but also preparing a white soup according to the method of catfish in white sauce.
Then put the lion's head into a small cup, then pour half of the two colors of soup into it, and finally put a piece of green vegetables to garnish.
With the lion's head as the center, the gold and white soup are distinct, making the dishes look artistic.
According to the number of old diners outside, Feng Yifan also made the corresponding number, and still used trays to serve them to the old diners outside.
"Come on......"
The moment he walked out of the back kitchen, Feng Yifan was like a guy in the lobby, and he shouted to serve the food.
The old diners, Su Jinrong and Su Ruoxi's father and daughter, all looked at Feng Yifan who came out with a tray with some expectation.
Lower the tray and place the cups with the lid in front of each diner. Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Okay, this is one of my innovative dishes, please taste it for uncles and aunts." ”
Because he lived relatively close, Lao Zhang, who came yesterday and came again today, immediately became curious when he heard this.
"Oh, innovative cuisine, it seems that Yifan has not been in vain abroad in the past few years?"
Other long-time diners are looking forward to it.
"Innovative cuisine? You have to try it. ”
"Hahaha, I've got a blessing today. ”
"Okay, I didn't come in vain today, the subway is worth more than half an hour. ”
......
Everyone opened the lid of the small cup with great anticipation, and at the same time of the strong fragrance, they saw that in the small cup, a little green could not cover it, the white and tender lion's head and the two-color soup.
