Siheyuan: Pioneer in anti-corruption, fighting against evil!

Otherwise, the cooking process in the kitchen will stagnate, and the dish may be put aside halfway through and continued next time. This system seems to be a platform for training chefs. I don’t know who designed it and chose me.

Everyone had a full meal and all the dishes were gone, which was not bad, after all, food like seafood is not easy to preserve.

"Zhu Zi, can we eat it during the New Year?" asked my second sister Wenhui.

Wen Li interrupted: "Second sister, you still want Zhuzi to go to the beach in the middle of winter?"

"Oh, are you feeling sad?" Wen Hui said with a smile.

At this time, He Yuzhu had stood up and was about to go out to smoke with his two brothers-in-law. Hearing what they said, he replied: "No problem, fishermen also go out to sea in winter, and the weather is cold and seafood can be frozen, I can bring more back.

“I will make palace snacks for you again this Chinese New Year, and I promise you’ll taste something different.

They were laughing and chatting, but Nan Yi felt a little disappointed because the He family did not return today.

The next day at work, Nan Yi went straight to the cafeteria after finishing his work. After asking, he found out that He Yuzhu had gone to Tianjin and bought the best seafood.

"Zhu Zi, have you finished your research?" Nan Yi asked.

“Not yet, but Shandong cuisine is improving rapidly. I have written down the recipes and will go back to study them carefully. We will work together to make a few new dishes.

"He Yuzhu said: "You can take your time to choose the palace dishes, especially Buddha Jumps Over the Wall."

“The ingredients for this dish are not difficult to make. Tianjin has seafood. I just saw it. If I make this dish in winter, Director Li will definitely be happy.

"What do you think?"

Nan Yi nodded in agreement: "Okay, then you study it first. The people in the cafeteria introduced two jobs to me. I will do these first.

"Qiuye and I are also planning to get married, and by then our income will have to increase so that we can entertain relatives and friends.

"It's settled!" He Yuzhu nodded, "If you need ingredients, just come to me, the price is absolutely fair.

Li Huaide wants Nan Yi to improve his cooking skills, but he will not provide too many resources. After all, the cost is too high and Li Huaide cannot afford it. He can only let Nan Yi find a way on his own.

What he needs is a skilled person, not someone he needs to train personally. Although it is hard to find a great chef, he already has a good helper like He Yuzhu.

If Nan Yi is not good enough, He Yuzhu can take over. Although the palace cuisine may not be as attractive as the former, He Yuzhu's cooking skills are better than Nan Yi's and the quality of his dishes is impeccable.

In particular, He Yuzhu's cooking skills are extremely outstanding in color, aroma and taste, and he is also adept at making exquisite Sichuan cuisine.

In addition, He Yuzhu's Tan family cuisine also made Li Huaide salivate.

......

Experience points continued to grow, and after another month, Nan Yi's private cooking business gradually opened up the market. The price of three yuan per table attracted many customers, especially during the period when the economy gradually recovered after the disaster, his order volume also increased.

However, Nan Yi was never satisfied with his work, and after He Yuzhu's in-depth research and his experience points no longer increased, the two decided to focus on improving their cooking skills together.

[Host: He Yuzhu]

[Age: 25 years old]

[Occupation: Chef]

[Skills: Intermediate Tan Cuisine (276/1000), Sichuan Cuisine Master (/), Shandong Cuisine Advanced (4/), Noodle Master, Big Pot Master]

[Space: storage space, planting space, breeding space]

Shandong cuisine has been directly upgraded to high-end, which makes He Yuzhu very happy!

In the kitchen, He Yuzhu only needed to concentrate and cook carefully to greatly increase his experience points, which was something he had never expected before.

However, there is still a question: where to put the finished dish?

Should I wait until I open my own restaurant to serve them to my guests? That’s a good idea, after all, the guests won’t know that these dishes have been stored for many years, after all, they still retain their original flavor!

But this number is too much. He plans to open a Sichuan restaurant and is not particularly interested in Shandong cuisine or imperial court cuisine.

Maybe he can publish a book about cooking in the future, but he doesn’t consider the business aspect.

He Yuzhu is a bit lazy. He doesn't have much pursuit of money. He just hopes that his family will have enough food and clothing. A luxurious life is too tiring for him, and he wants to enjoy life more.

His research was almost done and he should discuss it with Nan Yi, so after arranging his work, he went straight to the second cafeteria.

"Nan Yi..." He Yuzhu called out Nan Yi's name.

Nan Yi hurriedly stood up from his seat and asked, "Zhu Zi, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"My research here is basically completed. When do you think we can start research together? What dish do you want to make as the first dish?" He Yuzhu asked.

Nan Yi immediately replied: "That's great, I think our first dish should be the Nine-Turn Large Intestine.

He Yuzhu nodded in agreement: "This is a good idea, pig intestines are moderately priced, and I have all the main seasonings needed, so let's start with this.

“Did you make it the same way as in the recipe?”

"Exactly the same!" Nan Yi nodded affirmatively.

"Then come with me to my father-in-law's house after get off work tomorrow. I have prepared some pig intestines. Let's try it out on the spot.

" He Yuzhu thought about it and decided to act immediately, because he already had the ingredients and seasonings and could start making it directly.

Nan Yi said with some embarrassment: "I have to help Liang Ladi send the children after get off work tomorrow. Xu Damao has gone to the countryside, and she can't take care of two children by herself.

“No problem, just come back after you send the kids off.

He Yuzhu didn't mind. "I'll make the other dishes first, and you can deal with the large intestines when you come. How about that?"

"Okay, thank you for your help. Can you tell me the address?" Nan Yi smiled.

After leaving his address, He Yuzhu left his job. Now he began to concentrate on studying the recipes of palace cuisine. He can skip the pastry part and focus on learning other dishes.

Palace cuisine is extremely particular, with ingredients coming from a wide range of sources, strict requirements on origin and quality, and even detailed regulations on picking time and maturity.

He Yuzhu feels that it is enough to just look at the theory. If one wants to really make palace dishes, it is impossible even if there is a system now, because the types and requirements of various ingredients vary greatly.

The ingredients provided by the system are undoubtedly top-notch, but top-notch is not necessarily suitable for all situations.

Palace cuisine is the result of the hard work of countless chefs and is not something that can be easily mastered by one person.

He Yuzhu decided to study the recipe slowly. He was no longer concerned about whether it could be actually implemented.

He expects to gain a lot of inspiration from it.

……

In the evening, He Yuzhu went home early and started preparing dinner.

He brought back a bunch of pig intestines, which were prepared for Nan Yi. When Nan Yi arrived, he would be responsible for cleaning and processing them, and then they would make a Nine-Turn Intestine Dish together.

Wen Li opened the door and saw He Yuzhu carrying something. She asked, "What is this?"

"Pig intestines. When Nan Yi comes, ask him to make a nine-turn pig intestine dish. We plan to study Shandong cuisine.

"He Yuzhu explained," He will come to deal with it. You can soak it in a basin first and then do it when he arrives.

"Okay!" Wen Li hurried to get a basin and fetch some water.

Nan Yi hurried over 20 minutes later and exclaimed enviously after entering the house: "The small courtyard of your father-in-law's house is really nice!"

"It's really nice and very quiet!" For He Yuzhu, this is the most intuitive feeling.

Although the area is not large, the Wen family has a scholarly family for generations. Wen's father was a teacher in a normal school before liberation. He spent his whole life teaching and educating people, so it is natural for him to have such a small courtyard.

In that era, educators usually had considerable incomes. For example, university professors could earn hundreds of dollars a month.

The purchasing power of the ocean is very strong.

Nan Yi began to operate and asked, "To what extent do you want to process the large intestine?"

“Clean out everything inside, leaving only the casing.

“As a modern person, He Yuzhu is not too interested in the fat in it.

"Will it affect the taste?" Nan Yi asked.

"You can process it according to this method first. Let's try it once. The key lies in the production steps.

This bunch of large intestines is enough for you to make several meals.

"He Yuzhu continued: "If you feel that the taste is not good enough, you can keep half of it and make it yourself at home.

“Forget it, let’s do it here!” Nan Yi shook his head and refused, “Then I’ll clean it up thoroughly.

He Yuzhu continued cooking. When he finished, Nan Yi had already processed the large intestine and then took over.

This time, He Yuzhu did not say anything, but silently observed Nan Yi's operation process, pondering the details such as the proportion of seasonings and the heat.

After the dishes came out of the pot, he served them directly to the table.

At this time, He Yuzhu gave a brief introduction to everyone, and everyone started to eat after exchanging pleasantries.

He Yuzhu picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the nine-turn large intestine. After tasting it, he shook his head and said, "It's not cooked enough.

Nan Yi also tasted it and nodded in agreement: "Indeed, the taste is very different from Yaheju.

I'm a bit anxious today, Zhuzi, what do you think would be a better approach? "

“Eat first, and talk after you’re full.

"He Yuzhu did not continue the discussion at the table, and Nan Yi did not delve into it. After all, they were not in a hurry, and this dish needed to be studied slowly.

The two of them ate and chatted. Nan Yi tasted He Yuzhu's cooking and admired him very much.

An ordinary home-cooked meal is pleasing to the eye just by looking at it.

Whenever a chef cooks, he should pay attention to the three elements of color, aroma and taste. However, he usually does not pay so much attention to cooking at home. He strives to make every dish beautiful, and this concept has never occurred to him.

After dinner, the two came to the yard. He Yuzhu took out a cigarette, and then Nan Yi said, "I'm impressed, Zhuzi, your cooking skills are amazing.

“If you start learning from a young age and put in effort, you will naturally be good at it.

"He Yuzhu went on to explain: "I think the preparation steps of this Nine-Turn Large Intestine should be to blanch it in water to remove the fishy smell, and then cook it in a pressure cooker until it is soft.

"It should be cooked until it is tender but not falling apart, then seasoned and cooked, so that it is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with all five flavors. Of course, the special flavor of the organ cannot be ignored. You can use rice wine to remove the fishy smell. What do you think?"

Nan Yi thought about it and agreed: "Well, the steps are fine, the key is **, how to make it rotten but not fall apart?"

“This requires continuous experimentation. Let’s do it together tomorrow, two people studying it together.

The system gave me some experience points today, but not much.

“After thinking it over, He Yuzhu decided that they should work together tomorrow to see how much experience points they could gain in the end.

In addition, he also planned to try using his mind in the space at night.

Nan Yi then rode his bicycle away from the Wen family and headed for the compound.

After returning to the compound, Nan Yi lived in the gatehouse, so he didn't have to go deep into the inner courtyard, so naturally there was nothing special to deal with.

It was just that Third Master Yan, Yan Bugui, was sitting at the door of his house. Nan Yi pushed the cart in and saw him, "Third Master Yan, are you waiting for me?"

"Nan Yi, why did you come back just now?" Yan Bugui stood up and said, "Don't I have to be responsible for closing the door every day?"

“I see no one is at your house, so I’ll sit here for a while.

"Oh, I went to Zhuzi's father-in-law's house. We are studying Shandong cuisine now. I will have dinner there when I have nothing to do.

"Nan Yi stopped his bike and asked, "Are we going to close now?"

When Yan Bugui heard Nan Yi's words, he immediately asked, "What did you cook today?"

“Nine turns of the large intestine.

"Nan Yi continued: "But it was not very successful. I will try again tomorrow.

"Eat this every day?" Yan Bugui seemed very envious. He Yuzhu and Nan Yi were really talented.

“A large piece of large intestine is quite a lot and can be eaten for several days.

"Nan Yi didn't think much about it at first, but when Yan Bugui mentioned it, he remembered, "You're right, we can't let people eat this every day!"

"That's right, see if you can take it back. We have a big family, so one bite per person is enough. We don't have to worry about eating it every day.

"Yan Bugui said anxiously.

Nan Yi smiled and said, "I can't make the decision on this matter. This large intestine was made by Zhuzi, and I even borrowed his kitchen.

How about this... I'll discuss it with Zhuzi tomorrow, what do you think?"

“No problem, I believe Zhuzi won’t be stingy.

"Yan Bugui looked confident and said, "You take a rest first, I'll close the shop now, everyone is back."

Yan Bugui closed the door and went home happily.

Nan Yi smiled, then opened the door, boiled water, and cleaned the room. He was a tidy person.

...

The next day at the factory, Nan Yi mentioned this matter to He Yuzhu. He Yuzhu did not object. After all, they were in the trial stage and could give some to Master Yan San.

He Yuzhu had tried it once last night and the result was good because he could observe the doneness of the large intestine at any time in the space, so he could estimate the cooking time.

The two of them worked together in the evening. This time, the Nine-Turn Large Intestine was even better than yesterday. Even the Wen family members could taste the difference.

Finally, they filled half a lunch box with the food and asked Nan Yi to take it to Master Yan San.

The preparation of a dish should not take too long. It took them about a week to complete the dish.

For the sake of aesthetics, they rolled it into rolls and garnished it with green vegetables, trying to make use of the ingredients available at hand as much as possible, after all, only cabbage is available in winter.

The production process of the dishes is basically determined, and what remains are the differences in personal cooking methods. For example, the amount of seasoning to add depends on personal feeling.

Everyone's cooking style is different and it is impossible to force uniformity.

After a week of practice, Nan Yi had some experience, so he asked He Yuzhu: "Zhuzi, what do you think about me making a dish for Director Li to taste?"
