Gourmet conquest starts from the entertainment industry

When cooking at noon, Wu Jinchuan asked Zhao Jinmai what he wanted to eat. It was getting colder, so Zhao Jinmai wanted to eat hot pot. The teacher's wife has a request, and the apprentice naturally has to follow it. And Zhou Mochen's hot pot is very simple. For Wu Jinchuan, it should be within reach.

Had a lively hot pot meal. After lunch, Zhao Jinmai lay down directly. He didn't feel tired before, but he wanted to lie down directly after returning.

Wang Jinhua also left it up to her not to accept commercial performances. The endorsements of several big companies said that they would increase the price when the contract was renewed. Naturally, Wang Jinhua looked down on those petty money. And after several months of fermentation, another TV series by Zhao Jinmai will be broadcast. Zhao Jinmai's ranking has reached the middle of the first line.

At this time, a private plane was flying from the imperial capital to Sioux City. Two people Zhou Mochen knew very well were chatting.

"Xiaochen's latest project is almost finished. Did you ask when the next project is?"

Wang Jianlin looked at the financial statements and asked. I didn’t ask before because the plates were not big, but now I ask because Zhou Mochen’s snacks, hot pot, and fast food have revitalized the Wanda Plaza project. The bustling ones have become more lively, and the deserted ones have also become lively. The data is also increasing day by day.

"Not yet, but I said before that it won't be empty for too long."

Wang Sicong said that he had discussed this issue with Zhou Mochen before.

"Well, you should also make arrangements for the store. Even if other people's business is not done, you should keep Xiaochen satisfied."

Wang Jianlin nodded, and then said something.

"Got it Dad!"

Wang Sicong immediately agreed. Just kidding, now Zhou Mochen's store represents the trend, fashion, and the latest trend in the food circle. Only a fool would turn him away.

"You are a good friend!"

Wang Jianlin smiled, patted Wang Sicong's shoulder, and stopped talking.

More than two hours later, the plane reached the sky above Sioux City. Then slowly descend.

"Dad, we're here."

Wang Sicong said something when he saw that his father was still resting with his eyes closed. Invited some friends over for dinner today. This is already a habit of Wang Jianlin, no matter how busy he is, he will come here once a week, unless the store is closed.

And his friends are also used to it. With the contact with Zhou Mochen, they are so familiar with each other that they can't be more familiar with each other. Many endorsements suitable for Zhao Jinmai were given to her without saying a word. The price is also super high.

"Well. Let's go."

Wang Jianlin got off the plane with everyone under the arrangement of the secretary. The convoy drove towards Zhou Mochen's restaurant.

"Xiaochen, Xiaochen! I'm coming."

Wang Sicong yelled as soon as he entered the yard, but Wang Jianlin didn't say anything, this is the way they get along with the younger generation, he doesn't talk much, but thinks it's good to get along like this. Prove a good relationship.

"Uncle Wang, Brother Wang, you are here, come in quickly. I just made a pot of Pu'er tea, do you want some?"

Zhou Mochen laughed when he heard the voice, stood up quickly, and went up to meet him. He saw that there were only the Wang family father and son, and the others hadn't come yet. Just invite.

"Oh? Pu'er tea? Then I want to try it. Mai Mai is back too?"

Wang Jianlin couldn't hear it, and said something with a smile. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Zhao Jinmai following Zhou Mochen.

"Hello Uncle Wang, Hello Brother Wang! Long time no see!"

Zhao Jinmai greeted with a smile.

"Haha, Maimai is back, Xiaochen should take off his wife-watching title."

Wang Sicong immediately joked.

"Do you still want to drink tea? Tea can't stop your mouth."

Zhou Mochen said helplessly.

"Yes I do!"

Then he sat down with his father.

Pu-erh tea can be divided into many kinds, such as Pu-erh green tea, yellow tea, black tea, etc., and it can also be divided into raw tea and cooked tea. And what Zhou Mochen made was fermented Tuocha.

The shape is about the size of a rice bowl, each with a net weight of 100 grams or 250 grams, and the net weight of each mini tea is 2 to 5 grams.

Primary raw tea is divided into three specifications: spring, summer and autumn. Spring tea is divided into three grades: Chunjian, Chunzhong and Chunwei. Summer tea is also called Ershui. Autumn tea is called Guhua tea. Among the Pu-erh teas, Chunjian and Guhua are the best in quality.

Pu-erh tea does not mean that the older it is, the better it is. Only qualified products are stored under proper storage conditions, and the quality of the tea will change to a "good" direction within a certain period of time.

Pu'er tea needs to be brewed with hot water first, which is called "washing tea". First wash the tea leaves with hot soup to remove the dirt and air-conditioning, and cook them to make them beautiful. For Pu'er tea, the process of "washing tea" is essential. Because most Pu'er teas are consumed every other year or even years later. Pay attention to the rhythm when "washing tea", avoid multiple "washing tea" or "washing tea" at high temperature for a long time, so as to reduce the loss of tea flavor.

Puerh tea should be brewed in a pot with a large belly, because the concentration of Pu’er tea is high, using a pot with a large belly can prevent the tea soup from being too thick, and the material should be a pottery pot or a purple sand pot. After the second time, the choice of shade can be decided according to personal preference. Pu-erh tea can also be served cold.

"Good tea! This fermented tea has a special taste."

Wang Jianlin had also drunk Zhou Mochen's many kinds of tea, and this was the first time he drank this kind of tea.

"As long as Uncle Wang likes it, I will add some Pu'er next time."

Zhou Mochen said with a smile. Every time they buy tea, Zhou Mochen will match several kinds of tea together, unless they choose the tea they like. Zhou Mochen will also write down the method of making tea clearly. The provincial spoils the taste of the tea. Then the loss outweighs the gain.

After two pots of tea, several bigwigs also came, and the Wang family father and son also went in together.

Wang Sicong still wants to come out to eat with him as always. And today when Zhao Jinmai is back, Zhou Mochen will definitely cook something delicious. It's not like making a bowl of noodles to fool yourself before.

A lot of guests came, and Zhou Mochen went to the back kitchen to cook as usual.

With the passage of time, Zhou Mochen's control over various cooking skills has become more and more superb. The cooking is also meticulous to the extreme. After more than two hours, a table of dishes came out in a hurry.

And the big meal for Zhao Jinmai is also going on. Zhou Mochen chose two types of seafood that he hadn't eaten before. One is stonefish and the other is puffer fish.

The meat of stonefish is tender, milky white, without scales. Dry-roasted stonefish is a special dish in Jingmen, Hubei. Because there are few fish bones, keep the head and tail when cooking.

Chop the fish into 3 cm thick pieces. Mix the salt and rice wine in a shallow dish, put the fish head, fish tail and fish pieces, and marinate for 10 minutes.

Take the frying pan, heat the oil to 170 degrees Celsius, put in the fish, and fry for four to five minutes until it turns yellow. Remove the fish from the pan with a slotted spoon and drain the oil.

Pour out most of the oil in the pot, only a small amount. Heat over medium heat, add minced ginger and scallion, stir fry for about 1 minute. Then add chili sauce, pork shoulder and rice wine, stir-fry on high heat for 1 minute. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil.

Put the fish, bamboo shoots, the remaining teaspoon of salt and soy sauce into the pot and bring to a boil again. Turn to low heat, cover and simmer for about 10 minutes until the soup thickens and the fish is cooked through. Stir in the white vinegar, ground white pepper, and chopped green onion.

The fish head and tail are placed on the two ends of the plate respectively, and the fish pieces are placed in the middle. Pour the soup in the wok over the fish and serve.

It seems simple, but in fact one of the more deadly things is to kill stonefish.

The spines of stonefish are poisonous, so be extra careful when slaughtering them. First fish the stonefish out of the water, then put on thick gloves, cut off the spines and peel them off before putting them in the pot.

Compared with stonefish, puffer fish must be slaughtered with special attention, and it will be scrapped if you are not careful.

The skin of puffer fish with spines is plump and delicious, and it melts in the mouth. The wild puffer fish is fragrant and delicious, but its liver, roe, blood, etc. are highly toxic, and it is easy to be poisoned to death after eating.

Pufferfish, shad, and saury are also known as "three delicacies of the Yangtze River".

To slaughter a puffer fish, first cut off the stroke, tail fin and dorsal fin of the puffer fish. The eyes of the puffer fish are gouged out, the abdomen of the puffer fish is cut open, and the internal organs of the puffer fish are taken out. At this time, care should be taken not to puncture the internal organs. Otherwise, a delicious dish becomes a deadly poison. However, with Zhou Mochen's knife skills, these small mistakes will still not be made.

Then dig out the gills on both sides of the fish, remove the red tendons and blood on both sides of the puffer fish's spine, cut off the blood vessels above the spine, and then cut the tail of the puffer fish completely, cut off the red part of the meat, and cut the puffer fish's tail The fish skin is torn off, the testis of the puffer fish is removed, and the ovary of the puffer fish is removed.

The processed internal organs such as ovaries and puffer fish eyes, lungs, gills, etc. are bandaged and discarded. to avoid secondary damage.

Wash and squeeze out the blood in the blood vessels above the testis, and thoroughly clean and inspect the puffer fish. After all the inspection and cleaning are completed, rinse with running water for 1 hour. Then put them on the plate separately for later use.

Cut the bamboo shoots into strips. Heat the pot on high heat, and add a little lard. Add sliced ​​ginger, scallions and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant. Put the puffer fish in the pan and fry slightly on both sides. Pour in the white wine. Then add an appropriate amount of boiling water.

Cover the pot and bring to a boil. After boiling, skim off the foam and continue to cook for 3 minutes. Cover the pot and turn to medium-low heat for 10 minutes. In another pot, boil the spring bamboo shoots and fish skin with hot water and remove them.

Open the lid and add a little salt, cover the pot and continue to simmer for 7-8 minutes, put the spring bamboo shoots into the pot, put the fish skin and testis into the pot, and cook for 3-5 minutes. Add sugar and cook to thicken the soup. Sprinkle with a little white pepper.

Heat the casserole, put in the seedlings, and pour the burnt puffer fish into the casserole.

Two pieces of fish are very filling, plus some braised meat platter that Zhao Jinmai likes. Stir-fried seasonal vegetables, a plate of charcoal-grilled matsutake. The dishes for the evening are completely done.

Since there were no boxes, the two ate in the tea break area in the lobby. At this time, Wang Sicong also seemed to smell something good, and came out of the box.

"I'll go, Xiaochen, you're really partial. Every time I come here, I cook two random dishes to deal with me. When this younger brother and sister come back, you will make these good things."

Wang Sicong was also surprised when he saw the dishes on the table. I didn't expect Zhou Mochen to have such good things here.

"Then do you want to eat or not?"

Zhou Mochen rolled his eyes, thinking he couldn't compare with anyone, but with my wife. Are you comparable? My parents are almost here.

"Eat. Eat. Isn't it a waste if you don't eat such a good thing?"

Wang Sicong was not polite and went straight to the chopsticks. They are also used to it. I don't think there's anything wrong with it.

"Fresh. Delicious. I'll go. It's still your kid who can eat it."

Wang Sicong tasted a piece of puffer fish, with an extremely rich expression on his face.

"Come on, have a drink."

Zhou Mochen poured Wang Sicong a glass of wine with a smile.

"Haha, today is the right time. Why isn't it on your menu?"

Wang Sicong asked curiously.

"It's too troublesome to do. It takes a lot of effort to kill fish, and my apprentice is not qualified enough. So I'm lazy. If you want to eat, tell me in advance next time."

Zhou Mochen explained.

"That's right, most people really don't have the skills to do this thing."

Wang Sicong knew that these two things were highly poisonous, and not everyone could handle them well.

"Three years old, eat more. I haven't eaten well after being outside for a few months. Come back and make up for it."

Zhou Mochen smiled and sandwiched fish for Zhao Jinmai.

"Yeah, husband, this fish is so delicious."

It was also the first time for Zhao Jinmai to eat these things. It feels delicious.

"Hehe, eat as much as you want in the future, our family has no shortage of these things."

Zhou Mochen said grandly.

"That's enough for you two. I'm too caught off guard by the dog food. By the way, Xiaochen, your new project is almost over. When will you start the next one? What kind of house will I use? I'll prepare it for you in advance. "

Wang Sicong drank a glass of wine, and then asked a question.

"January is almost over. Let's wait until the end of the year and take a buffer. The next project will be a little more technical."

Zhou Mochen thought for a while and said. Since the breakfast chain was completely over and on the right track, Zhou Mochen started the next project. With the previous experience, the implementation is much faster this time. It's a fast food supermarket. For example, stewed chicken, rice bowl, large intestine soup, etc., are cooked faster. Zhou Mochen put them together. The effect is not bad.

With the word-of-mouth of the previous few, it won praise from the general public as soon as it came out of the market, because it is affordable. The taste is okay, and it is clean and hygienic, but there is a little downside. All of Zhou Mochen's delicacies are not allowed to be used in group purchases.

The way of group buying is really harmful to the food. It takes half an hour to cover it and send it over. All delicious food has gone bad. This is something Zhou Mochen can't bear.

The group buying website has a lot of opinions on Zhou Mochen, but they can't help it, whoever makes him arrogant. Didn't the guests go to eat without a group purchase? Such a delicious thing, who can bear it. Just kidding, it's all about losing weight and traveling green. This is also the reason why the Wang family likes to cooperate with Zhou Mochen. Drainage is very important.

"Well, I see. Let me know when you are ready. I will make a list, and you can choose the house at will. It is the same as before."

Wang Sicong nodded. Also thought about this time.

"Haha, thank you, Brother Wang."

Zhou Mochen picked up the wine glass and bumped into Wang Sicong. The Wang family's help to him is not insignificant. The house can be used as soon as possible, and the payment can be made after opening. You can choose the house at will, and it is the most favorable.

"Hey, you kid is so outrageous, you're fined to drink."

Wang Sicong smiled. When he got along with Zhou Mochen, it was obviously different from getting along with others, and he was very comfortable. And there is no barrier, sometimes he is also very surprised, the age difference is there, but Zhou Mochen is really stable at ordinary times. And something will happen.

"Okay! I will accompany you today."

Zhou Mochen smiled casually, he has never been afraid of anyone while drinking.

The three of them had a nice dinner. All dishes were wiped clean. Wang Sicong is even more reincarnated like a starving ghost. Most of the two fish went into his stomach.

After they finished drinking tea, Wang Jianlin and the other big shots came out.

"Uncle Wang, are all uncles ready to eat?"

Seeing them coming out, Zhou Mochen quickly stood up and greeted them with a smile.

"Haha, it's time to eat. Your kid ran out to start a small stove again."

Wang Jianlin replied with a smile, and then joked to his son.

"Hey, Dad, this time I really took a small step. Stonefish, puffer fish, the best."

Wang Sicong grinned and gave a thumbs up.

"Xiaochen. You have hidden something good."

Wang Jianlin's eyes lit up, and he nodded at Zhou Mochen.

"How can there be, Uncle Wang, today is a coincidence. Next time Uncle Wang comes, I will prepare it in advance. And the saury in my ecological park should also be out. Next time I come, let Uncle Wang try something new. They are all more than half a catty. .”

Zhou Mochen explained.

"Haha, then I'll remember it. Remember to tell Uncle Wang in advance next time if you have something good."

Wang Jianlin immediately laughed and replied.

"That is required."

Zhou Mochen sent a few people out of the house as he said that.

Looking at Zhao Jinmai and smiling, the two talked to Ling Zihan and went home. It was still early, and after playing with Pudding and the others for a while, they went upstairs to wash up.

"Husband, husband. Let's discuss something with you."

After Zhao Jinmai took a shower, he enjoyed Zhou Mochen's hair-drying service. He also had a massage by the way, and when Zhou Mochen wanted to think about other things, Zhao Jinmai blushed and hurriedly yelled. She also thought about it for a long time. I discovered it when I was filming with the national teacher. My own age is still a little young, and the current drama is a bit narrow. There are some movies that she just can't make.

There are very few films she can shoot with good scripts. It's all because Zhao Jinmai's acting skills have improved too fast, and his celebrity status has also risen too fast. And she still doesn't accept intimate scenes. So I had other thoughts in my mind.

"Wife, what's the matter? Tell me."

Zhou Mochen asked seriously when he heard Zhao Jinmai's words. This is the first time Zhao Jinmai used the word "discussion".

"I, I want to give you a baby."

Zhao Jinmai looked at Zhou Mochen with piercing eyes and said something.

"Huh? Are you sure?"

Zhou Mochen asked in surprise, although he knew that Zhao Jinmai had this idea before, but he thought it would be two or three years later. He can have kids whenever he wants.

"Well, I've been thinking about it for a long time."

Then Zhao Jinmai told Zhou Mochen what was in his heart. She thinks it's better to take advantage of this time to have a baby, and then study other things systematically. Such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Chinese studies and so on. In this way, her play path will be wider in the future. And the best time is during pregnancy. Good for her and the baby.
