Eternal Food Paradise.

Chapter 13 Mountains of Hot Sauce

"Chen Zhiyuan!"

Chen Zhiyuan, who was named, found himself surrounded by crowds.

A few of Wang Fuquan's apprentices looked back at the bar, their eyes were not friendly. They were a little confused about the chef at the bar, but they showed a fierce look to the guy who just kept saying that he was not the waiter.

"Go and buy me a version of tofu and a catty of pork."

Chen Zhiyuan quickly responded, and ran away in a hurry, but he just squeezed out of the crowd of onlookers in the store, and he slapped his thigh: "I forgot to ask for money."

In the personal panel, the money is displayed like this:
Silver - 2 taels

Copper-196 text

This is the newcomer's first bucket of gold that he has accumulated in two days, a proper hard-earned money.

However, buying a version of tofu does not cost a few pennies. No matter what era, tofu is a cheap food for the common people.Chen Zhiyuan got to know half of Jinguan City by heart in the past two days, and he also ran a trip or two in the field. He knew that there happened to be a time-honored tofu shop on the street. The quality was verified by him to be very good. It was Grandma who told him with a smile.

"It's just that pork is too expensive!" Chen Zhiyuan was heartbroken.

Restaurant.

Xia Yan looked slow, so he found ginger and spring onions first, and cut them up for later use.

Simple daily ingredients are still stocked in the store, but it is a pity that although this store has been copied from Tokyo, but due to the rules of the world, modern kitchen equipment such as refrigerators, cooking machines, and microwave ovens are all absent.

Even the stove...

Hmm, soil stove.

Looking down at the stove, the fuel is not limited to firewood, the coal is already burning at a high temperature in the stove, it seems that he doesn't need to worry about the firepower.

It's time to think about what recipe to use.

"Stuffed Bitter Gourd with Bean Paste" is not impossible. After the proficiency level is up, it is very easy to complete the task requirements of 'not less than 80 points, and the darkness index is not less than light'.

But Xia Yan wanted to change something fresh, so he took advantage of the trend to update a wave of personal menus.

Coincidentally, the dishes related to tofu are the ones that Xia Yan has the most confidence in and also practiced the most. There is no way, the probability that someone from Nihong will come to the store to order, and the probability of ordering 'Ma Po Tofu' is as high as [-]%. If you are proficient enough in cooking, then you have to do business.

If we say "Stuffed Bitter Gourd with Bean Paste", it is a sudden and whimsical idea.

So, the dish that Xia Yan plans to cook now is his real signature dish.

"Tofu, pork."

Wang Fuquan and a group of disciples discussed in low voices.

"The master often says that tofu and pork are a perfect match. With the combination of meat and vegetables, even if the cooking skills are so-so, it can be very delicious."

"The simplest recipe should be something like 'minced tofu'?"

"Hey, our master has a special dish, which is also tofu with pork, but the technique used is 'stuffed', stuffing the stuffing mixed with shallots and minced meat into the smooth tofu, be careful not to break it Then put it in a steamer and steam it until it is cooked, and finally eat it with soy sauce, tsk tsk, Master Shaoan is full of praise for the taste after eating it!"

Soon, Chen Zhiyuan took the ingredients, panting loudly, and returned to the restaurant.

"Manager Xia, here it is."

Opening the paper bag, Xia Yan saw that the tofu was complete, and nodded: "Thank you."

He turned to wash the meat.

It's a pity that there is no modern cooking machine for minced meat. If you want to use minced meat, you have to chop it by hand.

Fortunately, I have upgraded my knife skills!
Noticing that Wang Fuquan looked over with squinted eyes from time to time, Xia Yan secretly felt awe-inspiring. Under the eyes of these seasoned chefs, it was really a detail that could be exposed if it was not handled properly.

""Flower Knife" should be used with caution..."

With a control experience once, Xia Yan didn't feel so guilty this time, and took a breath, "Bang bang bang bang bang..."

Holding two knives, he began to chop the meat on the chopping board.

There is no element of showmanship at all, just a very ordinary interpretation of basic knife skills. In Xia Yan's hands, two square kitchen knives are lifted and cut alternately, and the blades collide with the wooden chopping board to make a pleasant sound.

"It seems to be no different from the basic skills we usually practice." An apprentice said in a muffled voice.

"It's basic knife skills, as long as you have hands."

Chen Zhiyuan's perspective was different from that of the group of apprentices in front of the bar. At this moment, he was standing behind Xia Yan, like a help cook on call at any time.

His eyes couldn't help moving down, looking at Xia Yan's trembling right foot, Chen Zhiyuan's eyebrows twitched, and he complained frantically in his heart: "Hey, this manager Xia is not paying attention at all."

Listening to the discussions of his apprentices, Wang Fuquan narrowed his eyes: "Shut up!"

For a while, there was only the sound of chopping meat in the shop.

"I told you not to work hard at ordinary times." Wang Fuquan snorted twice, "Pay attention to his hands, did you see them, steady!"

"I let you cut vegetables and shreds under the sun, and stand for several hours, just to develop such a mentality and foundation..."

As Wang Fuquan spoke, his pupils suddenly shrank.

At this time, Xia Yan, who had finished chopping the meat, shoveled all the minced meat into a plate for later use, then spread the whole plate of tofu on the counter, and pulled out another knife from the knife holder.

Swish!
The speed of the knife is almost to the point where it is hard to catch the eyes.

Just this "fast", several apprentices thought they could do it, but within a minute, they found that the tofu spread on the counter had been cut into modules of equal size. At first glance, it looked like a terrifying scale. The cloned tofu group, the apprentices were shocked and lost their voices.

quick!allow!
The combination of the two elements is not a simple basic sword skill. After all, too many advanced sword skills have to be developed around these two points. learning advantage.

"Look at the fire for me—" Xia Yan said without looking back.

"Oh, me? Good, good!"

Chen Zhiyuan replied.

The wok is hot, and a heavy iron wok is placed on the stove. Xia Yan sprinkles in a large spoonful of oil. This is a very common cooking step in Chinese food. When the oil is hot enough, you can add ginger and spring onion and stir-fry. .

"Hey hey hey."

Large streams of smoke came out, and because there was no transparent glass to prevent smoke and oil, the storefront seemed like a fairyland shrouded in clouds and mist.

"What a strong smell of firewood!" The apprentice covered his mouth and nose.

Wang Fuquan stopped squinting at the beginning, sat up straight, watched Xia Yan first pour a whole plate of tofu into the cauldron, and couldn't help saying: "Wrong, wrong!"

"After frying the minced meat, the next step should be to put the bean paste to saute, not the tofu first."

"If the process is reversed, this dish of tofu with minced meat will be almost ruined." Wang Fuquan seemed to be sighing, but also seemed to be sneering, "This way the bean paste won't taste at all, and the most important flavor of seasoning will be lost. , when the back is smoldering, how do you want to 'taste'?"

Xia Yan ignored it.

Who said he was going to make smoldering tofu.

With the usual procedures, it is impossible to make dark dishes with high scores and high indexes. Since the system wants him to be a villain, Xia Yan can only reluctantly cook his signature dishes.

Even though such dark dishes are intentionally served, it is self-defeating, and it is very stable to get bad and bad reviews from customers.

But here is paradise.

The paradise of "China First".

"Dark cuisine" will instead remind people of that group of people, and then label him as not to be provoked.Xia Yan hoped that the trouble of coming to the door would only be this one time. In order to cultivate the purity of cooking skills, he could only use the name of the dark cooking world.

"Did you see the big bottles of seasoning in the cabinet, bring them here for me." Xia Yan ordered.

"Take them all?"

Walking to the cabinet, Chen Zhiyuan couldn't help asking one more question.

"all!"

Going back and forth several times, Chen Zhiyuan saw the store manager Xia kept opening the lid, and then dumped the whole bottle of seasoning into the pot, his expression gradually changed from shock, puzzlement, and panic to numbness.

The bright red bean paste is piled up into a small hill, completely covering the tofu cubes and minced meat.

"This this……"

"I believe you said it's spicy chicken!"
