After returning home, Jiang Ran began to study a new cuisine - Hunan cuisine.

Xu Zhuifeng looked at the big bag of kidney beans and thought thoughtfully: "Are you going to make stir-fried kidney beans?"

"Yes." Jiang Ran concentrated on handling the kidneys under his hands: "Countless Sichuan and Chongqing people have grown up eating the classic dish: stir-fried kidneys."

"Wow, Master, you are really amazing. You are even proficient in Hunan cuisine." Xu Zhuifeng said in an admiring tone, looking like a little fanboy.

Jiang Ran laughed and flicked his forehead: "It's not a mastery, just a beginner."

Jiang Ran has a clear understanding of herself. She knows how much she weighs.

Even though she is extremely talented and has amazing cooking skills, she still has a lot to learn in cooking.

It’s a long road ahead, so stay humble.

This is Jiang Ran's advice to herself.

As usual, she made it according to the systematic recipe.

However, the system only provided the first half of the recipe, and the second half of the recipe could not be unlocked because her permission was too low.

Jiang Ran was not surprised. The recipes in the system are not all available at a glance. Most common cuisines can be viewed, but some recipes need to be unlocked.

It should be more challenging to cook for yourself.

Jiang Ran accepted the restrictions of the system calmly and was content to have the recipes.

In the future, she will unlock more recipes through her own efforts.

Jiang Ran lowered her eyes, hiding all the thoughts in her eyes. Cut the kidney flower in half, remove the white membrane inside, and cut it into strips with a flower knife.

Sprinkle a spoonful of salt and an appropriate amount of sweet potato flour, and finally pour half a cup of cooking wine.

Jiang Ran took out a pair of plastic gloves from the cabinet, put them on her slender fingers, carefully grasped and mixed them evenly and set aside.

Even though the system's recipes are incomplete, she has rich cooking experience and can use the developed network to recreate authentic stir-fried kidneys.

She explained in detail: "Put the kidneys in hot oil and stir-fry them for about 20 seconds. The kidneys will melt in the pot. You need to take them out immediately..."

Xu Zhuifeng nodded repeatedly and kept taking notes in his notebook.

After taking out the kidney flowers, Jiang Ran left the oil in the pot, added ginger, garlic, red pepper and hot pot base ingredients and sauteed until fragrant. As soon as she smelled the aroma, she added onion knots and chili shreds.

Stir-fry until the onions become soft, then quickly add the kidney florets and stir-fry evenly, drizzle with a layer of red oil, and remove from the pan.

The finished product looks very successful. The waist flowers are bright brown, the pepper strips are emerald green, and the red peppers are bright. At first glance, it is very beautiful.

Xu Zhuifeng was the first to try it, and it was surprisingly delicious.

"Let me have a taste." Jiang Ran took a bite with chopsticks and frowned.

"No, failed," she said in a harsh tone.

"Failed? How could it fail?" Xu Zhuifeng quickly took another bite: "It's obviously very delicious, fragrant and fresh. In my opinion, it is extremely successful."

Jiang Ran shook his head: "I tasted a faint fishy smell."

The step of removing the fishy smell was not done well.

"Why can't I taste it? It tastes delicious to me." Xu Zhuifeng couldn't help but doubt his sense of taste.

"I have a more sensitive sense of taste."

Jiang Ran's sense of taste is much more sensitive than ordinary people, so she has higher requirements for dishes.

You can even taste the slightly fishy smell.

This plate of stir-fried kidneys was a failure in her opinion.

"Throw it away and I'll do it again."

Jiang Ran seemed to have no regrets and decisively abandoned the failed product.

"No, Master." Xu Zhuifeng wailed, protecting the plate of stir-fried kidneys: "Can you not throw it away? I want to eat this plate of stir-fried kidneys."

"That's fine. If you want to eat it, just keep it."

After Jiang Ran finished speaking, she made her second attempt.

Still failed.

It wasn't until the third time that she vaguely discovered some clues.

The kidney flowers must be soaked in water, at least for two hours, and the water must be changed frequently in the middle, so that there will be no odor.

Jiang Ran dove into the kitchen, researching new cuisines without eating or sleeping. If she failed, she would try again, and she would never give up halfway.

Meng Shishi and Xu Zhuifeng tried to persuade her to rest several times, but they all ended in failure.

The two exited the kitchen and looked at each other.

They always thought that Jiang Ran's rice was delicious because God rewarded her with food and gave her a talent for cooking that was far beyond ordinary people.

But they all overlooked one point.

Her diligence, her hard work, her research spirit.

This is the fundamental reason for her success.

Three days flew by.

Guessing that the sauce in the restaurant was about to run out, Jiang Ran went to the restaurant to prepare some new sauce.

But when she arrived at the hotel, she was shocked.

There were suddenly fewer people in the hotel, and it was deserted.

Although there are not only two or three people left, it is indeed much smaller than the previous bustling crowd.

She called Huang Mao over: "What's going on? Why are there suddenly so few customers in the restaurant?"

Huang Mao took off the apron from his waist: "Sister Ran, I just wanted to report this matter to you."

"Turn around and look behind you." Huang Mao pointed to the hotel opposite.

"what happened?"

"Business is good, right?"

"Yes."

Jiang Ran saw that the restaurant opposite was doing brisk business and there was a long queue at the door. The scene was just like when her new store first opened.

In stark contrast to the desertedness of my own home.

"That's because their signature dishes are almost exactly the same as ours!" Huang Mao suddenly became excited and said angrily.

"How is it possible?" Jiang Ran directly denied: "It is impossible for him to replicate our taste."

The signature dishes require the use of secret sauces that she personally developed. Without the secret sauces, it would be impossible to replicate the exact same taste.

"I don't know what's going on." Huang Mao became frustrated again.

"Business at the restaurant across the street was average before, but since the signature dishes were changed, business has exploded."

He sighed: "Sister Ran, we sell limited quantities of food. Customers who can't buy our food will go to the restaurant opposite and use their signature dishes as substitutes. Our restaurant's business will inevitably be disrupted, so that's why So deserted.”

Jiang Ran looked into the hotel and saw that the employees inside were all looking very depressed, not as excited as they were at first.

As the hotel business was affected, everyone's mood was not high.

Jiang Ran urgently held a short meeting to reassure the soldiers: "Don't panic, everyone, trust me, I will solve this matter as soon as possible."

No one can replicate the taste of a signature dish.

This incident is definitely not a coincidence, there must be something fishy about it.

Her eyes scanned every employee present.

"Everyone, cheer up. Even if our business is not as good as before, we can't give up. We must be as enthusiastic as ever. Please believe me, I will definitely solve this matter perfectly."

"Now, what I need is everyone's trust." Jiang Ran looked solemn.

Her words were neither fast nor slow, and her words were pronounced with an indescribable persuasiveness.

The employees' eyes lit up again.

"Sister Ran, we believe you."

"Sister Ran is not discouraged, how can we be discouraged?"

"Sister Ran is right. We need to cheer up again. No matter there are many or few guests, we must be full of enthusiasm!"
