Food starts with noodles

Xu Zhuo didn't care at first, but recalled what Wei Junming said.

Lao Luo's tofu is suitable for making mapo tofu?

real or fake?

Isn't mapo tofu made from southern tofu?

I remember that there was an argument on the Internet a few days ago because of this matter.

When Ke Ke was strolling to the pharmacy to buy pain-relieving ointment, Xu Zhuo went to the kitchen.

At this moment, Wei Junming was still chatting with the old man about Lao Luo's tofu.

Chef, that's it.

Seeing good ingredients is more exciting than seeing beautiful women.

Xu Zhuo walked over and interjected, "Isn't mapo tofu made from southern tofu? Why do you say Lao Luo's tofu is suitable for making mapo tofu?"

Wei Junming smiled: "Tofu mixed with shallots can be divided into north and south. Do you think there is no mapo tofu?"

Having nothing to do, Wei Junming taught Xu Zhuo a lesson.

Use southern tofu to make mapo tofu, the tofu is delicate and smooth, full of juice.

The mapo tofu made with northern tofu has a strong taste and a strong fragrance.

Both kinds of tofu are right, you can use anything.

Whether mapo tofu is delicious or not depends not on the tofu, but on the method and other ingredients.

This is the difference between Sichuan cuisine and Shandong cuisine.

Shandong cuisine has strict regulations on the ingredients, and even a little bit of flaws is not acceptable, and the preparation is cumbersome, giving people a feeling that there are no difficulties but also difficulties.

However, Sichuan cuisine has much lower requirements for ingredients, and even many of them are leftovers that other cuisines do not want, but in the hands of Sichuan cuisine masters, they can immediately become a delicious dish.

Even the famous dish of Sichuan cuisine, boiled beef, is because the beef in the salt field is too old to be eaten with other cooking methods. As a last resort, it is cut into thin slices to make boiled flavor.

Chapter 360 The Father's Wish

Now Sichuan cuisine is full of vitality, and it can be found everywhere in the country, even in small counties.

In contrast to Shandong cuisine, except for some private restaurants, some famous dishes have become the signatures of other restaurants.

For example, those classic Shandong dishes that were famous in the capital are now gathered together and become Jingbang dishes, which are out of the sequence of Shandong cuisine.

So compared with Sichuan cuisine, Shandong cuisine really feels like the sun is setting.

Speaking of this, the old man was full of emotion: "The group of old people abide by the rules, what is passed on to men but not to women, what is passed on to insiders and not to outsiders, not only makes some cooking techniques lost, even the signature dishes have become others. "

Many Shandong cuisines have been lost, and even the first-class hot pot that is available today was discovered by a group of chefs based on written records and word-of-mouth practices.

Whether the specific ingredients are right or not, whether the heat is good or not, all eyes are smeared.

Fortunately, my great-grandfather left the capital and came to Linping City a few years ago, so Xu's family dishes are relatively complete.

At least those things that my great-grandfather knew, the old man didn't leave them behind.

"Ding! There is a new main mission, please click on the panel for details."

Xu Zhuo's heart skipped a beat.

He really regretted running over to ask about Mapo Tofu.

Well now, come to work.

Although he hadn't read the details of the mission yet, Xu Zhuo knew that the difficulty was definitely not small when he heard the words "main mission".

While the old man was feeling emotional, Xu Zhuo entered the system and clicked on the task panel.

Main task: Grandpa's wish.

Task details: Grandpa has always been worried about the decline of Lu cuisine and not being recognized. Please work hard to open a Lu cuisine restaurant in the capital to fulfill grandpa's wish.

Task requirements: The Shandong cuisine restaurant to be opened must be within the Fifth Ring Road, with a business area of ​​no less than 3000 square meters and a daily turnover of no less than 10 yuan.

Task rewards and punishments: If the task is successful, the difficulty of the host's task of purchasing a courtyard house will be reduced by half; if the task fails, grandpa will leave with regret.

Task time limit: ten years.

Task Tip: Work hard to earn money.

After reading it, Xu Zhuo was stunned.

When I first bound the system, I did a side mission of Grandpa's wish.

At that time, the heir was determined.

I didn't expect another one to pop up now.

I really don't know how many wishes the old man has.

The difficulty of this task is even greater than that of buying a courtyard house.

Because the courtyard house only needs to save money and does not need to make other efforts.

But this task is to open a restaurant in the capital. If the craftsmanship is not good, it is impossible to gain a firm foothold in the capital.

And it is also required that it must be within the Fifth Ring Road, with a business area of ​​no less than [-] square meters.

When he got the Guotao technique, Xu Zhuo was still praising the system for its righteousness.

just now……

Dog system, I am at odds with you!

But even though I was upset, this task had to be done.

This is the old man's wish, and it is also the key to reducing the difficulty of the courtyard task, so no matter what, Xu Zhuo can't give up.

"Grandpa, if I sell all our restaurants and open restaurants in the capital, will you scold me?"

In order to test the old man's attitude, Xu Zhuo asked this question which is easy to be beaten.

The result was beyond Boss Xu's expectations. Not only was the old man not angry, but he was very supportive: "Okay, as long as your skills meet my requirements, we can sell all the houses here and in the provincial capital. But if you are not skilled, Just don’t go there to be ashamed.”

With these words, Xu Zhuo was completely relieved.

Although it won't be able to meet the old man's request for a while, as long as there are these words, it will be fine.

He didn't want to wait until he wanted to go to the capital in the future, but his family became his fetters.

"If you're going to the capital, I'll go with your godmother. I can't do anything else well, so I'm more than enough to be your head chef."

After the old man finished expressing his opinion, Wei Junming did not expect that he also expressed his own meaning.

Xu Zhuo clenched his fist, it's not bad, he already got the support of two people.

And according to the urine nature of the system, this task is very difficult, but it is not impossible to complete.

Maybe the system wants to integrate all cuisines by itself and open a fusion restaurant.

If the chef of the hotel is really a famous chef like Wei Junming and Xu Wenhai who has already made a name for himself, it will definitely be very easy to open up the market in the capital.

Even without much publicity, their name alone can attract many chefs.

In addition, if it goes well, Yangzhou will participate again. Opening a restaurant is as easy as drinking cold water.

Thinking of this, Boss Xu suddenly became full of confidence.

"Little Zhuo, what are you doing so silly here? Are you planning to open a restaurant in your dream?" Seeing Xu Zhuo giggling there, the old man couldn't help asking.

There is no one left in the horoscope, as for this?

Xu Zhuo woke up and ignored the old man. He washed his hands and went to prepare the ingredients for today.

"What's the matter with Xiao Zhuo recently? I feel that I am much more diligent than before." Wei Junming looked at Xu Zhuo's busy figure, a little curious.

When he taught Xu Zhuo before, this guy's Buddha-nature was so bad that he didn't care about anything.

Why hasn't he been seen for a few days, and he actually started thinking about opening a restaurant in the capital?

What stimulated you?

The old man didn't know the reason: "Probably because of falling in love, that girl from the Yu family is nice, she's a ghost, she's a good match for Xiao Zhuo."

The two strolled out, sat outside and chatted.

Xu Zhuo has been busy in the kitchen.

When he was free, he also practiced knife skills that he hadn't practiced for a long time.

He even took a piece of tofu and cut a plate of shredded tofu, which surprised the kitchen staff.

This knife work, simply!

It's just that his shoulder is uncomfortable, and he just put on painkiller ointment.

If the shoulder recovers, it will definitely be able to cut out shredded tofu that can be threaded through the eye of a needle.

At eleven o'clock, Li Hao invited Lao Luo and his wife over for lunch.

Just in time for the two of them to try the tofu they made themselves.

When Lao Luo came, he didn't come empty-handed, and brought half a bowl of hot tofu to Xu Zhuo.

Hot tofu means that the bean curd is taken out and put into a tofu mold soon after it solidifies, and taken out as soon as it is formed.

This kind of tofu is slightly harder than tofu nao, and much softer than pressed tofu.

Cut a bowl and pour a spoonful of chili sauce or leek flower sauce, then sprinkle some capers and sesame oil, and eat with a spoon. The taste is not to mention how delicious it is.

Xu Zhuo used to sell hot tofu in the streets when he was a child, but now he seldom sees them.

Taking the basin from Lao Luo, Xu Zhuo took it to the back kitchen and began to think about how to make it.

There is no chili sauce in the store now, and there is no chive flower sauce.

However, there is chili oil in the store, and it should taste good when poured on hot tofu.

As for the sour bean foam, although there is no such thing in the store, there are a series of pickles such as sour bamboo shoots and sour radish, which are more delicious than the sour bean foam when chopped.

He tried to make a bowl for himself, tasted it, and his eyes widened.

This taste is too delicious!

Chapter 361 Tofu Feast

The warm tofu is soft and smooth, and it is a perfect match with chili oil and sour bamboo shoots.

It's like eating jelly, but the taste of tofu is better than jelly.

too delicious!

Xu Zhuo racked his brains and couldn't think of suitable adjectives to express this texture and taste. After holding back for a long time, these four words were still in his mind.

But if you can't remember it, you can't remember it, it doesn't matter.

The hot tofu made by the important Lao Luo is really delicious.

He brought out all the tofu chili oil and chopped sour bamboo shoots, and chopped some coriander. Whoever wants to eat it can serve it by himself, and add ingredients according to his own taste.

In order to entertain Lao Luo and his wife, the old man specially made a table of tofu dishes.

Tofu mixed with shallots, braised tofu in soy sauce, Yipin tofu, Guotao tofu, mapo tofu, tomato sauce tofu, cold dried tofu, crucian carp tofu soup.

At noon today, we were going to have a birthday party for the little girl, but Yao Meixiang was busy at the forest park and didn't have time to come back for dinner. Zhou Wen could only fly back in the afternoon.

In addition, there are no private rooms in the Sifang Pavilion, so it is quite noisy during peak hours.

Wei Junming took the initiative to ask everyone to eat in a Sichuan restaurant tonight. There are large private rooms there, and the kitchen equipment and ingredients are more complete than here.

Throwing a birthday party is absolutely trivial.

Moreover, the old man hasn't eaten at the Sichuan-style restaurant since it opened. Today, I just asked the old man to taste the dishes of the Sichuan-style restaurant.
