Chapter 405(1/2)
Chen Nian rushed all the way, and finally stopped steadily at the door of Honghong Hotel, and then handed the key to the store to Hongdou.
Go to the side to park the car.
"What new dishes should I cook in addition to the small noodles today?" An Hongdou asked curiously.
"Xiaolongbao." Chen Nian didn't keep it a secret and told the other party the answer straightforwardly.
"This is great. I really like eating Xiaolongbao! For a while, I would buy a basket of Xiaolongbao every day. Once, when I was having breakfast, I found that I still wanted to eat it after I finished eating it. As a result, I asked for another basket, and finally I felt so uncomfortable all morning." An Hongdou recalled.
But now looking at Hongdou, even though she had been uncomfortable eating Xiaolongbao before, it did not affect her love for Xiaolongbao.
"My current Xiaolongbao is still in the experimental stage. I made it once yesterday and today I have some improvement plans. It is probably several versions that can be brought to the table." Chen Nian said.
Give He Hongdou a vaccination in advance, otherwise the impression that he had in the other party's mind was that he had delicious cooking. If what he made this time was not satisfactory, he would feel disappointed.
"Then are these versions of yours large or small versions?" An Hongdou asked curiously again, revealing his game home attributes as soon as he opened his mouth.
"For a large version, at most one, and the rest should be the update of the small version." Chen Nian thought for a moment and then said.
But as he spoke, he had already arrived at the kitchen, washed his hands clean, and then used a dry towel to dry his hands carefully, not letting go of the gaps between his fingers and nails.
Although the dough is covered with dough with your hands after kneading with your hands, Aged still has to make sure that your hands are clean before cooking, so that the food guests eat will naturally be clean.
This is how cooking is. Although the chef adds something to the pot in the kitchen, customers may not be able to eat it, as long as they do that, they are no longer worthy of being called a chef.
There are also some fast food restaurants that have appeared in the news that use expired ingredients to cook, completely ignore kitchen hygiene and flow in sewage. Aged ones are also despised from the bottom of their hearts.
His purpose is to do what he can do, and do what he can do. If he can't do it, don't do it. Even if he makes money, he can't make money without conscience. There are so many industries in the world, so it's not that he has to do catering.
But most of the time, he can't control others, he can only manage himself first.
After washing his hands, Chen Nian started making bun fillings. This time, he put various seasonings and ingredients such as meat filling, light soy sauce, salt and other seasonings into a basin and stirred them evenly, and then added an appropriate amount of water.
After adding water, I found that the filling was indeed much thinner. After a certain period of soaking and absorption, the steamed bun filling will definitely be more tender and juicy than the first time I came.
Make the stuffing of buns well and cover them with plastic wrap.
Then put it in the refrigerator for refrigeration.
Refrigerate to make it taste better.
An Hongdou watched Chen Nian all the way, chatting with Chen Nian from time to time. Although Chen Nian was busy with his hands, he was not idle in his mouth.
An Hongdou looked at Chen Nian taking out the flour, remembered her childhood, and sighed and said, "During the time when I first came out to work, I also wanted to make some food at home occasionally, so I bought some tableware, noodles and rice.
One day I suddenly wanted to eat noodles, but it was too hot outside and I didn’t want to go out to buy noodles, so I prepared to make it myself. As a result, I really put the noodles in the joke, and put the noodles in the water, and finally I put the whole lot of them out.”
Listening to Hongdou telling her embarrassing things, Chen Nian couldn't help but feel a little funny: "What about it later? Did you succeed? You shouldn't be able to finish eating so many noodles, right?"
"It should have been successful. Anyway, I finally made them into noodles and put them in the pot. After cooking, I found that it was quite delicious. As for the remaining dough... I made some of them into noodles and put them in the refrigerator, and some of them were fried into cakes. But even so, there was still a lot of dough left. I wanted to put them in the refrigerator and wait for the next time to eat, but later I gradually forgot about this. When I remembered it again, the dough had already grown green hair."
"What a pity, but when I first tried to cook, I was almost the same as you." Chen Nian said.
"Impossible? You cook so delicious, how could it be similar to me?" An Hongdou couldn't believe it.
“I started learning to cook not half a year ago, but half a year ago I was planning to open a restaurant.
When I was in college, I would talk about cooking with my dad every time I came back from vacation, but at that time we compared to dark food, including the black goat cub you ate last time, which I also developed in those years.”
Speaking of this past memory, An Hongdou also had a very deep impression: "But to be honest, that dish was quite delicious. If it was not considered its appearance... Of course, this dish was a surprise for Cthulhu enthusiasts like me."
"That's because I met the right person. You know, my parents didn't move a bite after seeing this dish, and my father took my mom to the hotel for a day on the spot." Chen Nian said helplessly.
Hearing this, An Hongdou laughed, covering her mouth to stop her laughing, but how could her emotions be so easy to restrain?
But An Hongdou smiled and suddenly remembered another memory.
"By the way, Chen Nian, I suddenly remembered that I seemed to have eaten steamed three-steak on your side before. This is also the dark food you made at that time?"
"It's not that steamed three stinky. This dish was made by my father at the beginning. It seemed that he learned it when he was traveling to Shaoxing before. Later, I learned it from him. I still remember that the first bite of the dish you ate was spitting out." Song Yueming also remembers this experience vividly.
"Haha, that's not what I thought the tofu was broken... and I ate it later, but if I eat it, this dish is actually quite delicious and very delicious. But to be honest, for me, it's okay to eat it occasionally, but if I eat it as a home-cooked dish, it may be a bit unacceptable."
An Hongdou's opinion deeply agreed with Chen Nian.
"But didn't you compete with your uncle in cooking like this at that time? My uncle made steamed three-steamed food, so what did you do?"
"Garlic-oiled Bread Fish." Chen Nian still remembers the name of the dish very clearly, because when he thinks about it now, the smell is still like a maggot with bones attached to his nose.
"It doesn't sound very dark? And to be honest, I still want to try it..." An Hongdou thought about the dark food she had eaten here three times before.
And to be honest, these three dishes are actually pretty good, especially the soy sauce tastes very pure and smells quite good.
Although the black goat cubs look curious, they taste sour and sweet.
So she subconsciously thought that this garlic-oiled breaded fish is also the kind of dish that looks or smells like a dark dish, but tastes particularly delicious.
Then he asked curiously: "What ingredients are your dish made with?"
"Bean juice, stinky tofu juice, canned herring, Laoshan snake grass water, sour bamboo shoots, black garlic..." Although it has been so long, this dish is still as old as it is.
An Hongdou's face changed as she listened.
Is this cooking?
This is clearly a crime!
"I didn't expect you to be so rebellious." An Hongdou couldn't help but sigh as if she had reunited with Chen Nian.
After all, it is very difficult to survive until now after making such things at home.
"Your parents really love you..." An Hongdou said seriously.
"Yes, I always thought my parents were very nice to me, but even so, I was locked up at home for several days. My parents stayed in hotels for those days, and the money I spent was my living expenses for the next semester.
In order to remove those flavors, I specially bought dozens of packs of activated charcoal, five kilograms of tea specially used to remove the flavors, and ten pots of green baskets.
When the taste finally dissipated, the green ivy was already dying."
An Hongdou laughed so hard that her stomach hurt when she heard this very interesting and substituted description. Her laughter was particularly low. In addition, the vivid and vivid description of the old description, An Hongdou couldn't help it.
"But in the end the smell at home disappeared, and the smell on my body was still there. I had to wash in the bathroom at home for two hours, but after I came out, I could still smell the stench. Finally, I had to go to the bathhouse for a whole day, which almost made me swollen. Finally, I asked the master who rubbed my back to rub it hard before the smell was dissipated."
"Stop talking, stop talking, I'm almost laughing... Why are you so cute..."
"Cute?" Chen Nian thought to myself, can he be considered cute like this?
He even felt that if he was not the son of Feng Honghong and Lao Chen, he would probably be tied up and sent to the police station on the spot.
"Yes, when I think of you happily making your bread fish, I was locked up at home to clean it. Finally, I tried hard to wash myself with a grievance. But I found that I still smelled so I had to soak in the bathhouse and then find a back rubbing master. I felt very cute when I felt pain and gritted my teeth and endured it."
Chen Nian thought, did An Hongdou quietly awaken some attributes?
But just as they were chatting, the old noodles were also reconciled.
After the noodles are reconciled, they must be kept awake for a while. This time, in addition to adding water, noodles, salt and yeast, sweet baking powder is also added.
"In the afternoon, you said you wanted to eat beef noodles. I specially left some for you. When the buns are almost ready, how about I put the noodles in the pot for you? Are you hungry now?"
"I'm fine. I've had lunch late and didn't go out to stay at home all day in the afternoon. I feel that it's OK now."
"Then I will make noodles later, and then I will eat noodles and buns together."
"no problem."
Just wait for the time to pass minute by minute, and wait until the dough wakes up and the filling is fully flavored.
Chen Nian then started preparing buns.
After yesterday's attempt, Chen Nian is now more skilled in making buns.
Although the speed is still a little too fast, at least the buns I made are all very good.
An Hongdou looked at the old buns, and she couldn't help but feel itchy for a moment.
"Can I pack a few?"
"Of course." Chen Nian nodded, "But do you know how to make a small long bag?"
"No, I only know how to make dumplings and wontons. Our family used to make these two things, but they rarely make buns. Generally, they are given by relatives or bought them out, so I didn't learn it." Hongdou said, "But I think it's not difficult for you to wrap them. I'll just teach me."
"OK."
Chen Nian started to teach An Hongdou to make buns, but An Hongdou found that the buns looked simple, but in fact it was still difficult to make hands, especially An Hongdou hadn't cooked by himself for a long time.
After I have packed a few, I can’t make the buns look like they should.
Chen Nian was a little anxious when he saw it. He obviously did every step very slowly, but what An Hongdou made was different from himself.
"You have to pinch the pleat first, and don't let it loose... It's the kind of pushing it away... the thumb is pushed behind, and the index finger is pressed in front."
Chen Nian said the key points carefully, but An Hongdou still didn't make it.
Chen Nian was so anxious that he put down the bun skin in his hand on the spot and grabbed An Hongdou's hand directly.
"Look, your thumb is to be placed in this place..."
"Then slowly push forward. This finger should be like this first, and then this way, and you can pinch the pleats out in a moment... pinch it with the thumb... Isn't that good? The next one is the repetition of this." Chen Nian taught An Hongdou step by step.
An Hongdou didn't expect Chen Nian to teach him like this, and his face turned extremely red in an instant.
I was full of thoughts, wondering whether Chen Nian was doing this on purpose or...
But after seeing Chen Nian teach him, he still looked as usual, and even looked at him with some expectations.
