Chapter 387 I'm Going To Be A Neighbor With My Sister
The beef toppings of small noodles are relatively simple. After preparing all seasonings and ingredients in advance, Aged first takes out a pound of thawed beef and cut it into pieces, and then put it into the pot with the blanched onion, ginger and cooking wine.
During this period, the gray-white foam formed by the floating blood was also slid.
After the beef is blanched, take it out, rinse it with cool water and set it aside for later use
Then start the pan and cook oil.
Before the oil was hot, add the chopped green onion slices, ginger slices and garlic granules and stir-fry. Soon bubbles of different sizes began to appear in the oil pan. At this time, Chen Nian dug out some of the most commonly used three-year-old Chen Pixian bean paste with a spoon and put them in the pot.
I kept stirring and stir-frying in the pot with a spoon. After the Pixian bean paste was fried with red oil, Chen Nian sprinkled a small amount of pepper and three or four dried pepper segments that were broken from the middle to get the seeds.
When stir-frying, what Chen Nian likes most is to add onion, ginger and garlic, then Pixian bean paste and stir-fry it with red oil. At this time, the color of the bottom of the pot is already very attractive, and the fragrance continues to spread. If you can throw some peppers and chili in, the small smell will be nice. As soon as you get up, Chen Nian always has the urge to throw slippers in to see if they can stir-fry.
Even gods can't withstand this temptation.
But it is impossible to throw the slippers in. Chen Nian poured the beef that had been blanched just now and put it in a spare way. After thoroughly stirring, the color in the pot was evenly hung on the beef.
The flavors of meat, bean paste, chili, pepper, onion, ginger and garlic are blended together at the same time.
Now Chen Nian can no longer use other adjectives to describe it, but if he insists on describing it, it is delicious.
While looking forward, Chen Nian also fartted.
But if you want to make beef toppings, this is far from enough. Add about ten grams of dark soy sauce and cooking wine each, color the pot evenly, stir fry for a few minutes, and wait until the color in the pot becomes even and thicker.
Aged pour the broth into it so that it just soaks the beef in the pot.
This time, the beef topping made by Aged Nian used about two pounds, so now, just by looking at it with the naked eye, it is already very satisfying to put the pot of meat there.
But if you want to make the color brighter and the taste richer, you also need to pour the sugar color in it. The sugar color has been fried before, so just add it in at this moment.
In addition, you also need to put in a pack of seasonings made by aged fruit, broccoli, star anise and other seasonings.
Finally add chicken essence, MSG, and pepper.
Stir and stir-fry again evenly.
Cover the lid and adjust the heat to low.
Next, I will have to wait for about an hour and a half...
This is the case when making beef. You need to stew it slowly over low heat. This is different from eating beef hot pot. If you continue to cook this beef on high heat, it is easy to make the beef more and more simmer.
But if the cooking time is not enough, the taste cannot be in, and the outside is tender but the inside is still raw. Only by thoroughly cooking the beef can it have the best taste and taste.
When I was eating it, I didn’t think anything was wrong, but now it’s my turn to make it. Chen Nian realized that it was not because the noodle restaurant gave too little meat, but because the beef was really too expensive. Just like this, Chen Nian said that he would throw it in for 100 yuan.
In addition to beef for more than 40 yuan per pound, the seasonings placed in the pot are also worth at least five yuan.
Finally, there are all kinds of miscellaneous and various costs, which cost about one hundred yuan.
Moreover, most stores are rented storefronts, and they have to consider the rent, so it is naturally impossible to sell them at cost. So it is normal for a bowl of beef noodles to sell for 16, 18 or even more than 20 yuan.
If the shop is relatively simple and its location is relatively remote, the price may drop slightly, but it will never drop too much unless there is a piece of meat inside, but it will be too ugly.
I made two pounds of meat today, and Chen Nian didn’t plan to finish it today. Even if I called everyone in the group, I couldn’t finish it.
After all, for beef noodles, you should add beef in moderation. If you put too much, you will get tired of eating beef.
As the saying goes, it is better to give it to the right food than to give it, and it is better to give it to give it to a little less, but it is better to want to eat it but can't eat it.
Although this is a bit immoral, if Aged really gives enough beef and sells beef noodles for 40 yuan, although someone will definitely come to eat it, the people who eat it will never be as many as normal beef noodles.
And if you eat a bowl of noodles for 40 yuan, it will not be eaten with beef noodles, but with beef cooked on noodles.
It is true that I bought the redemption and returned the beads.
Just as Chen Nian was waiting for the beef to be stewed, he started kneading the noodles. In the afternoon, he had used up all the noodles, so the noodles still need to be made freshly. Fortunately, the beef toppings took a long time to prepare the noodles, so he had enough time to prepare the noodles.
Originally, Chen Nian wanted to live alone, but as soon as he added noodles and water, his phone suddenly rang.
Chen Nian was moved and hurriedly ran outside to check it out, but found that the name displayed on the caller ID was Lu Xiao.
A hint of disappointment flashed in his heart, but Chen Nian still answered the phone with his chin: "Hey, sister."
"Xiao Nian, I'm going back now. I called my aunt just now and she said you're still in the store. Is it convenient for me to get there now?" Lu Xiao said on the other end of the phone.
"Of course it's convenient, but why are you here so late?"
"Stop talking. I was looking at the shops and inspecting the market outside, but at around 6 pm, an old classmate saw me posting a message asking if I was in Chengdu. Later, he insisted on asking me to go and sit together.
He is my college classmate. We have a major. We were in the dormitory next door. However, we got along well. After graduation, we would contact each other occasionally. We just sat and chatted at his house. We only came out until now.”
"Okay, sister, come here. After you get on the taxi, call me, otherwise it will not be very safe at night."
"Okay, then I'll take a taxi first and wait a moment." Lu Xiao said there.
After about a while, Lu Xiao called Chen Nian again, and Chen Nian had already taken the phone into the kitchen.
"Xiao Nian, what are you doing in the store now? I heard from my third aunt that you seem to stay in the store every night."
Chen Nian smiled: "I will study the new dishes here every night. Sister, are you hungry now? Come here and have something to eat."
"You are really a little hungry after saying this. I just ate at a friend's house. It was a bit vegetarian. It was all vegetable leaves, and I was not satisfied with eating it at all." Lu Xiao said with some complaints there.
"Hahaha, that's right. I'm making beef noodles here. I'll come here to eat more later and lose weight. What's the point of losing weight? Isn't it still the same little meat?"
"That's it! I feel the same way. Even if I really want to lose weight and exercise, why bother using this method to abuse myself?" Lu Xiao was obviously very open-minded about this.
Chen Nian thinks that their family's genes are very good, and they are very good-looking in their generation, and there are no brothers and sisters who are too fat or too thin.
Just as Chen Nian folded the noodles and left them awake, a taxi parked at the door.
After Lu Xiao paid the money, he entered the store.
"It smells so good. When can I do it well?" Lu Xiao was obviously not the kind of pretentious person. It has been two days since she arrived in Chengdu.
Chen Nian's family was very hospitable, so she treated it as her own home.
In addition, Chen Nian was originally his younger brother, and he was about the same age and opened a store, so there was no obstacle to communication.
"It's about an hour left, and it's 10:30 now, and it's ready by 11:30." Chen Nian looked at the watch hanging on the wall and said,
"It's still so long?"
"Yes, the beef is tough. I just cooked it shortly when I called me. I could eat it in advance, but the beef wouldn't be stewed so much." Chen Nian explained, "Sister, this is not that I don't let you eat it."
"Then I'd better wait." Lu Xiao sighed and found a chair to sit down.
Chen Nian had nothing to do at this time, so he simply came outside to chat with his cousin.
"Sister, you opened a snack shop in your hometown... a cake shop?" Chen Nian subconsciously wanted to talk about the snack shop, but think about it, where is there any snack shop now?
Either it is a cake shop or some fancy names.
"Yes, we mainly buy some cakes and some Chinese dim sum. The business is pretty good in our business. Although there are many similar shops around, their taste is not as good as mine, which means the price is slightly cheaper. But after eating a few times, customers still have to come to me to buy it. After all, the ingredients and recipes are different, which is passed down by my dad."
Chen Nian nodded, thinking that his cousin was also a family-born craft in his dream: "Cousin, how have you seen this time? Is there a store you like more?"
When Lu Xiao heard this, he couldn't help but rub his forehead: "Yes, yes, but those are either too expensive, the risk of renting them is too high, or the location is not very good. Although it is quite lively, there are shopping malls and office buildings around it. Although there are many people in this kind of place, there will definitely not be many people buying cakes from me.
If it is a more exquisite cake, it may be more suitable. After all, those white-collar workers and young people who go shopping occasionally drink afternoon tea, but this is not very suitable for me."
Lu Xiao sighed, "So now I still think the location next to you is the best. Although there are many office buildings and schools around, they are mainly communities and rental houses, and there are many families, which is more in line with my target group."
"Then do I need to book here?"
"It's settled." Lu Xiao nodded, "I've seen it all these days. Although there may be new housing sources after a while, it doesn't make sense. We can take care of each other here."
"Since I have decided, I should rent a house nearby. After all, it is not good to live in your house all the time. It doesn't matter if you live for a while now, but it will be inappropriate for one or two years in the future." Lu Xiao said.
"It's okay, my mom will definitely want you to live at home."
"That's not good either. I've also learned about the house when I was looking at the shops these days. There are quite a lot of neighborhoods nearby and the rent is relatively appropriate. It's enough for me to live alone in a 1 bedroom and 1 living room, and I can still have a meal with you every day."
"Hahaha, then let's have a meal here. Anyway, it's not bad for such a pair of chopsticks and a bowl, and there are so many people that it can be lively and lively." Chen Nian agreed with a smile. Chen Nian didn't say anything about her cousin's intention to go out to rent a house.
Some people may think it’s nothing to live in other people’s homes. After all, they are all relatives, and everyone has such a good relationship, but some people still find it inconvenient.
Although it is a little troublesome to live alone, it is relatively free.
Moreover, living nearby is not far from Chen Nian's house, so it is convenient to get around at that time. Even if my parents take the time to come, there will be a place to live, instead of the two families huddled together.
As for eating, it’s nothing for everyone to eat together.
"By the way, sister, I have an idea. Isn't there sour plum soup in my store now? But the store can't make too many every day. I can only make two pots at noon and afternoon. I was thinking about whether I could sell this on your side.
In this way, you can sell it from morning to night every day. If you sell takeout, you can probably sell it at least twice as much as you can in my current store.
It can also avoid the problem of selling only cakes and snacks, and sour plum soup does not take up any space."
After hearing what Chen Nian said, Lu Xiao quickly thought about it in his mind. It is true that many people who go to cake shops will buy cakes, but it seems that it is OK if you sell more sour plum soup yourself. Moreover, sour plum soup is boiled in advance. If a customer wants to buy it, it will be enough to fill it again, and it doesn’t take much time.
"This method is OK, but how do you want to cooperate with me?" My brothers still have to settle the score clearly, and Lu Xiao doesn't want to make the relationship between the two families break up because of this kind of thing.
So it is better to explain some things in advance.
"Cousin, I'll talk about my opinion first. If you think it's not suitable, we can discuss it later. Anyway, I'm just an idea now.
What I think is that I invest in technology, then provide raw materials, hand over this technology to you, and then earn 55% of the accounts in addition to raw materials, water and electricity, and packaging costs."
Lu Xiao listened to Chen Nian's meaning that the raw materials were sold, and how much sour plum soup would be sold at that time. Chen Nian had to first subtract the cost of the materials itself, and then subtract the cost of packaging and water and electricity by himself. The remaining money would be 55 cents.
In this way, Chen Nian will pay more technology, while Lu Xiao will pay more labor.
"Yes, that's 55 points, but we can talk about this carefully. After all, the cost of packaging is good, and it can be distinguished clearly. However, it is not easy to calculate carefully in terms of water and electricity. After all, I don't just sell this. I also need water and electricity to make cakes."
"No problem." Seeing that my cousin agreed so happily, Chen Nian nodded. This kind of cooperation matter needs to be discussed in detail at that time, and it is best to draw another contract.
Although everyone is a relative, there are some things that should be there.
