royal family

Shao Yan rolled up his sleeves in the kitchen and moved the suckling pig into the oven with his apprentices. He thought that the guests in the hall outside would be more patient after the jade soybean milk was delivered. He rushed in again in a hurry, and asked with a bitter face: "How long will it take for the food to be served, the guests outside are waiting desperately."

"Putting food at a banquet! What a rule!" Shao Yan immediately got annoyed when he slapped the top of the oven, and was about to curse at someone.Seeing that the situation was not going well, Tian Xiaotian hurriedly held his hand, coaxing him repeatedly: "Master, master, don't worry, the restaurant is newly opened today, the most important day, why lose your temper? I'll come here, I'll come, you go I'm busy, let's prepare some dishes that can be served earlier, otherwise it won't look good to Shao Dong."

Shao Yan glanced at him, thinking of Shao's father squatting in the corner secretly this morning to watch him move the steamer, and his parents have been so nervous for almost a month because of the new store.What Tian Xiaotian said made sense, he patted Tian Xiaotian on the head in admiration, took off his heat-resistant gloves and turned to the cooking counter.

Tian Xiaotian was almost slapped sideways by his slap, and his head was buzzing after finally standing upright.He supported his dizziness and watched Shao Yan pull out the knife from the knife holder. The bright light of the knife made people feel chills, and he was so scared that he accidentally pushed the baking tray into it.

Tian Xiaotian is also unpredictable, his master is almost half a head shorter than him, why is his hand so strong?Every time you slap your hands with encouragement, you will be overwhelmed.

Shao Yan fished out the beef tendon that had been simmered until it was soft and rotten, cut it into thick slices, rolled it in the condiment he prepared, and directly divided the portions into a pile of iron plates to start frying.This dish is the least labor-intensive and the best to make, suitable for all ages, and suitable for all tastes.Last time after the Yumen seats in City A were completed, many people called back and said that they accidentally ate too much and had stomach pains for several days. The guests who came this time were heavier than last time. If this happens again Not so good, Shao Yan decided to reduce some dishes appropriately.

The boiled beef tendon only needs to be slightly flipped and fried, and it will emit a strong aroma unique to beef. With Shao Yan's own secret seasoning, it really makes people salivate when they smell it.Shao Yan counted the time, poked it with his chopsticks, and found that the beef tendon had started to stick to the bottom, so he raised his hand and beckoned someone to bring the dish up.

The iron plate is very large, and at least half a strip of beef tendon can be laid on it. There is a special heating device at the bottom of the iron plate. Flip out at the edges.When the beef tendon is brought to the table, the big guys dare not delay any longer. This is different from the jade soybean milk served for one person. If you take a slow step, the bottom of the plate may be licked clean.Everyone couldn't wait to pick it up. The part of the beef tendon slices close to the surface of the pot was slightly browned, and it brought a special salty taste with one bite.The beef tendon slices are about as thick as an ordinary woman's finger, and they are translucent. When the chopsticks are picked up, they will sink deeply into it.

The way the grill is, but not the taste of the grill.

The glutinous tendon is like the best glutinous rice flour pastry. It is soft and flexible, and it is easy to taste. After a little processing, the strong fragrance of the seasoning can be fully eaten.Shao Yan started to make it when it was stewed. The cooked beef tendon has a natural fragrance. When it is stirred with an iron plate, the layer of spices that were originally wrapped in the outside is also exploded. The two phases overlap, and the taste It's an unprecedented fit.

Beef tendon will stick to the bottom. It should be a very annoying thing, but unexpectedly, the part that sticks to the bottom of the iron plate has become a new delicacy. The special burnt aroma and slight crispness make people willing to use it. The attached shovel is slowly shoveled, and eating like this will give you an extra sense of accomplishment that you can eat the fruits of your labor after doing it.

It's amazing!

People who have been to City A in the past are lucky to say that most of the new guests did not expect such a taste of Yumenxi when they came here to cheer.They are willing to cheer, partly because of the Yan family's relationship, partly because Li Yuke took Shao's mother around these days, partly because they are curious about the praise of Yumenxi on the Internet, and partly because they are purely for Shao Yan of.

But now, the two dishes slowly brought up before the banquet are enough to conquer everyone's taste buds.All the people who were still chatting with each other fell silent. While eating, they wondered whether they should urge the waiter to let the back kitchen serve the food quickly. They were really anxious to wait.I completely forgot that it's not even the time when the meeting was supposed to start.

The waiter who was caught for the nth time and asked how long it would take for the next dish to be served wanted to cry, so he could only nod his head vigorously to express that he would definitely go to urge the dishes again. When he was in a temper, he was so frightened that his legs went limp.

After Father Shao finished his speech, he brought a few assistants around to toast with wine bottles. Seeing that everyone was concentrating on eating beef tendon, he didn't want to be disturbed. He gritted his teeth and ordered his assistants to bring out Shao Yan's brewed wine. Several altars.With his own hands, he knocked off the abnormally hard piece of mud that sealed the mouth of the altar with a hammer, and uncovered the silk cloth and lotus leaves that covered it, and the room immediately smelled more fragrant.

He asked people to drink wine in the back, and he approached the table to get close, and a group of waiters quickly filled the empty glasses of the guests one by one.The people who were eating were staring at the iron plate, worried that the people on the table would shovel up the beef tendons, and they were getting impatient for his appearance. The smell of wine rushed into their noses, and their patience suddenly became stronger.

"Thank you very much, thank you all for your support." Shao's father raised his glass to the guests neither humble nor overbearing, "In the future, we will rely more on everyone to take care of us at the Imperial Gate Seat, so someone Shao would like to offer a toast to everyone."

The big guy hastily put down his chopsticks and took the wine glass. He wanted to say a few words of politeness, but his eyes fell on the green liquid in the small wine glass and couldn't take it back.After taking a sip of wine, everyone trembled and the smell of wine that had never been tasted in their mouths aroused everyone's curiosity: "Mr. Shao, what kind of wine is this?"

"This wine tastes too special, didn't you buy it outside?"

Shao's father was a little proud: "Thank you for not disliking me. This is Baihua brew. Shao Yan, the dog son, brewed it himself. It is brewed with the winter snow of the season, various flowers and honey. It is really impossible to buy it outside."

"drink!"

"Your son?!"

"Winter Snow!"

"Flowers?"

Everyone at the table uttered their voices together, smashing the taste in their own mouths and repeating Shao's father's words. Shao's father heard someone ask: "Your son? Isn't it the one that is being broadcast in newspapers these days, at the cultural exchange meeting?" The one who contradicted the group of people in Province P?"

Shao's father waved his hand, and his face was impressive: "You are still young and full of energy, and you can't hold your breath. I will criticize him when I come back."

"Oh, old Shao! This is your fault. You have to judge whether you are right or wrong when you criticize a child!" Hearing this, someone immediately stopped him, "Your son is a good material, young and talented, and the handwriting he wrote Words, I saw the photos my friend took with his mobile phone, they are really pretty! You can even make wine, if my child is half as smart and sensible as him, I will wake up laughing from my dreams."

"That's right, the group of people from Province P are nothing to begin with, they taught you a good lesson! It's so satisfying!" Someone immediately echoed, "Your son knows that he is straightforward and has ideas, Lao Shao, you should trust him more. "

The address was immediately upgraded from Mr. Shao and Mr. Shao to Lao Shao. Hearing the praise of Shao Yan from a group of people, Father Shao was even more happy from ear to ear. After ordering the waiter to leave a few jugs of wine on the table, he had to go down. There was a table, and before leaving, he said goodbye: "Everyone, eat slowly. Today's table of dishes is also made by Quanzi and his apprentices. There is also a big dish of roast suckling pig in the back. It may be a little slower. Everyone Let’s drink first, and rest our stomachs. Have fun eating!”

Everyone was a little silly, and after he left, they looked at each other for a while and then set their eyes on the sizzling beef tendon on the table—this table was cooked by Shao Yan and his apprentices in the back kitchen?Before they came here, they had heard that Shao Yan might have gotten the news of his grandfather's recipe in private, but this was everyone's guess after all.It was rumored on the Internet that the chefs at Yumenxi in City A all claimed to be Shao Yan's apprentices, but few believed it.How old is Shao Yan?The news also said, twenty!Freshman year!

People thought it was funny when they heard it. For a 20-year-old young man, it is incredible that he can write well with a clear style. There are also rumors that he can cook well!People's skills should be slowly increased with age!Unless the head is struck by lightning, many people really don't believe the "rumors" around who seem to want to pin all the good things on Shao Yan's head.

But under such an occasion, Father Shao would never tell a lie!

Could it be that Shao Yan really made this dish? !

Everyone sat down again, absently shoveling the crispy beef tendon on the iron plate, and slowly drank their wine, then suddenly froze for a moment, looking at the wine glass in their hands—as if...just now...someone said...this The wine... seems to be... brewed by Shao Yan? !

I go! ! !What kind of weirdness is this!

When the suckling pig was taken out of several ovens, the aroma filled the huge kitchen, and the apprentices who had experienced Shao Yan's gourmet cuisine couldn't help swallowing their saliva.

On the way, Shao Yan also took out the pig and brushed it with a layer of sauce he made himself. Now the skin of the finished product is roasted golden, and the thick pig skin is full of oil.Tian Xiaotian took a deep breath and almost floated up. He tugged at Shao Yan's sleeve and asked, "Master, what did you brush on your head just now? I've never smelled such a fragrant suckling pig!"

Shao Yan glanced at him: "I will teach you what to eat? You are usually disobedient, noisy and timid. I don't want you anymore. Don't ask me."

"Master!" Tian Xiaotian, who had known Shao Yan's temper for a long time, began to act shamelessly, "If I am so smart, how can I still show off your brilliance, wisdom and martial arts? Please, please, Master, if you don't want me, Then I might as well just jump off a building, and it would be meaningless to live if I can't eat your food, Master."

Shao Yan suppressed the laughter that had already come to the corner of his mouth, and shook him off with a soft snort: "What are you talking about, let someone cut up the vegetables, let me see if you have practiced your knife skills recently."

Shao Yan taught Tian Xiaotian a set of saber techniques that do not require internal strength, and the angle will be more precise and neat when swinging the saber.He took a suckling pig and put it on a plate. With his hands, he swung it suddenly, and chopped the suckling pig into evenly sized pieces in the blink of an eye.The pieces of meat look like a complete pig because of the stickiness of the pig skin, but the fragrance is more intense because the skin is broken.

What Tian Xiaotian admires the most is the knife his master uses. It cannot be said how beautiful it is, but it looks unscientific when cutting vegetables.It is as if directing the knife with the mind, sharp and precise to the microscopic point, no need to stop no matter how hard it is, it will be cut lightly.

Of course they can't do that well, but compared to a few months ago, the recent devil training has had a great effect.The suckling pig is not big, but it looks like a lot after moving out.It takes a maximum of 50 seconds for a pig to be cut from the oven. The waiter walks fast, and the pig skin is still sizzling and oily when it is served to the table.When the smell of barbecue appeared from the kitchen, the crowd was a little commotion. When the roast suckling pig was delivered, the younger people even cheered loudly, while the older ones were calmer. Some people were counting their blood pressure. He warned himself not to eat any more, while still stretching his chopsticks towards the plate calmly—forget it, there are not a few years to enjoy it, just take a few more antihypertensive medicines after eating in a while.

The skin of the suckling pig is roasted crispy, the fat layer is just right, not greasy at all.Because a lot of oil has been forced out during the barbecue, it tastes more smooth and melts in the mouth.The meat is tender and smooth, and the seasoning of spices can be tasted just right, the saltiness is even, and it will be gone after two bites of Nuoda, but no one feels tired after eating the big meat.

The back kitchen quickly brought up several loose dishes, including the soy pork ribs that made a splash at the Yumen Banquet in City A. The crispy yam and the rich pork ribs complement each other, forming a dish that looks like homemade but actually tastes unique delicious.

With the roast suckling pig on the table, everyone's eating speed slowed down, and the back kitchen had time to breathe.Shao Yan asked Tian Xiaotian to take someone to turn off the still heating fire in the steamer outside.He brought an apprentice who learned how to make pasta with him to make staple food in the kitchen.

He didn't plan to cook any more. The people on the table would probably be full after eating like this, and it would be his fault that they would be overwhelmed by then. In the end, they just ended up with noodles.

In fact, he only learned this noodle recently in modern times. Compared with the noodles eaten by the former emperors in the palace, it is even smoother and stronger.The ingredients for the noodles were fried by himself. A large pot was filled with water and stewed until it was fragrant.After the noodles are cooked in the pot, pick them up and run them in ice water, then pour the hot soup.The soup is thick and bright, and the ham slices that have been stir-fried into translucent can be vaguely seen inside.Shao Yan likes to use ham the most, especially the kind that is marinated by himself. If you put a little bit in when cooking, the quality of the whole dish will be greatly improved.

The Buddha Jumping Over the Wall was delivered to the table, not as big as a single serving, and the ingredients inside were also cut into three equal portions, served in a delicate small soup cup, with a volume of six or seven mouthfuls.As soon as the lid of the soup pot was lifted, the freshness and sweetness of the seafood made people dizzy. The suckling pig had been carve up, but the delicacy still had an aftertaste.Everyone heard about the delicacy of Shaojia Buddha Tiaoqiang, so they calmed down and drank the soup slowly. Buddha Tiaoqiang had to taste it carefully and slowly, and it was another enjoyment that was completely different from the thick and colorful suckling pig.After drinking a small bowl of soup for half a quarter of an hour, someone said, "Oh, I'm so full."

After he said this, only then did people pay attention to the movements of their stomachs, and the signals of being very hungry, very hungry, very hungry, delicious, delicious, delicious, and delicious, which were originally emitted by the head, began to be gradually overwhelmed by the feeling of fullness.

"Wow... so full..."

"I didn't see a few dishes...why are you so full?"

"That's right. In the past, there were more than 20 dishes at least for banquets. This time, including the last Buddha Jumping over the Wall, there are only nine dishes. How could we eat so early?"

Immediately someone figured it out: "I used to eat a few mouthfuls of dishes on a plate, but this time I have eaten all the dishes on the table, and the portions are so big, it's no wonder I'm not full."

After hearing this, everyone immediately felt strange. Although the CD is said to be a virtue, how can anyone really eat a meal or something? It is common for a table to order some dishes and leave half of the table.It's rare for everyone to eat everything without manners like today.They began to worry: "It's bad, I'm so full, what should I do when the food is served later? I feel uncomfortable if I can't eat, and my stomach hurts if I eat too much, tsk...Miscalculation."

Oh My God.

There was a moan in the hall.

After a while, the waiters came out with Haida's bowls. When everyone saw the bowls, they were both looking forward to and suffering, and thought to themselves, forget it!Just die, eat more digestive tablets later, so you won't have a stomachache after a long meal!

As a result, noodles were served, and everyone was a little confused.

The waiter counted the number of dishes served today, and felt shabby in his heart, but since there was nothing left behind, he couldn't make up anything, so he said: "The dishes are all served, this is the last Luxian ramen, everyone please hurry up." use."

After they finished speaking, they were waiting to be questioned why there were so few dishes, when they heard the surrounding guests let out a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately."

"Fortunately, fortunately."

"Drink some soup if you are full, eat noodles if you are still hungry!"

Everyone's worries just now were swept away, and they began to greet warmly again.

A good meal can easily lead to friendship among the people at the same table. After a meal, most of the people at the table are already familiar with each other. Greetings are like calling friends, and they cannot be warm for a while.

However, the noodle dish at the end surprised them once again.

The noodle soup has a strong aroma, and you can vaguely drink the fresh aroma of unique ingredients such as ham, dried bamboo shoots, shiitake mushrooms, and old duck.Luxian Luxian, I think they use delicious ingredients from the land. As soon as the rich soup is eaten, the heat and aroma almost melt the tongues of diners.They didn't know whether they were drinking stewed soup or eating noodles. Many people gulped down another two or three bowls, wanting to eat noodles. There was no room in their stomachs, and they were completely full.

The smoothness of the noodles is also a must. Such a rich soup color does not need extra aroma of the noodles. As long as it has a taste, it is enough to be called the best partner.

Everyone tried their best not to finish the last noodles, but the soup was drunk. Everyone's stomachs were almost full staring at the noodles, but they still couldn't let go of their eyes.

Seeing this, the waiters in the restaurant immediately sent out the snacks they had prepared before. Many people along the way asked them to buy Shao Yanniang's wine. Answer that the boss is still planning and estimating.

The Shao family had some doubts about the price of the flower wine. Li Yuke and Yan Yi told them that it doesn't matter if you call it a high price. In S City, as long as the product is good, it doesn't matter how expensive it is.However, after calculating the cost, Shao Yan said that it would be [-] for a bottle, a price that even Shao's mother could not agree to.

The guests who got pastries by accident were all very happy. Just because of the enjoyable meal they had today, they could guess the taste of the bag of pastries in their hands just by thinking about it.The pastry container is very delicate, a small one about six inches, octagonal, wooden with a handle, looks like a food box used by ancient people.The four sides of the food box are patterned with the same cloud pattern as the plaque of Yumenxi, and the three big characters of Yumenxi on the lid are beautiful and domineering.

Everyone held Father Shao's hand and kept praising the delicious food, and they also left each other on the phone. Those who know more can basically imagine the tight supply of seats in the future, and immediately began to lay the groundwork for the friendship of making reservations at that time.

Shao's father accepted a basketful of backers, and naturally he would not refuse anyone, the corners of his mouth almost went behind his ears.There was no one from the reporter's seat to interview from the opening to the end of the meal, and when the people were almost gone, they took another photo of the empty plates in the banquet hall.Several people from the media seemed to have a sudden inspiration, sitting on their desks and knocking non-stop.

These mouthpieces wanted to curry favor, so Shao's father ordered some bottles of wine to be delivered to them.The leaders of several interview teams were both pleasantly surprised and embarrassed. The sense of satisfaction they had never experienced when receiving the red envelopes made them very talkative, and they repeatedly promised to fight for the page and publicity for Yumenxi.When I got back, I looked over and over again at the crystal-clear wine bottle with the plum blossom pattern, and I was really satisfied no matter how I looked at it.

Some timid reporters would squeeze over and ask in a low voice: "Boss, are we really going to put him on the headlines? We have collected things and arranged for them. What can the chief editor/Tai Li do?"

Those with bad tempers didn't answer directly, and those with soft tempers reached out and knocked them on the head: "Silly, do you think this bottle of wine is really for us? It's because they give us face, even if they don't Send, do you take them seriously as the leader of the stage? You didn’t have enough information before, but you will know when you go back. Don’t look at who are the people who came to the banquet today.”

The reporters were still thinking about it, and the doors of several special small restaurants inside were also opened. Shao's father led the guests out, gave wine and pastries, and was patted on the back to encourage him all the way.

"Little Shao, work hard. With your ability, it will be no problem if S City eats it." A middle-aged man who looked like a leader stood very close to Shao's father. He was very polite when he entered the arena. Then they became intimate, and the tone was also appreciative, "It's time to prepare to open a branch. We will give everything we can for the convenience here. Excellent entrepreneurs need encouragement."

Father Shao nodded again and again. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Shao Yan coming out of the kitchen. His eyes lit up, and he immediately greeted, "Yanyan! Come here!"

The middle-aged man asked: "Hey, is this Shao Yan?"

When outsiders were around, Shao Yan always gave his father face. He took off his apron and walked over immediately. Then he was dragged by his father and said: "Hurry up and call someone, this is Li Shu..."

"Just call me Uncle Li." The middle-aged man seemed very satisfied with Shao Yan's appearance, looked him up and down, and admired him, "Sure enough, he is young and talented. He looks good, writes well, and cooks well. Well, the fermented rice is even better! Did you really make this table today?"

Shao Yan was not afraid when he saw that the other party was an official. He had seen a lot of officials before, and he stepped on him, stripped his pants and beat him.He didn't feel nervous at all, and smiled at him generously: "Yes, Uncle Li, did you enjoy your meal?"

The man surnamed Li was stunned when he saw him like this, and then he laughed heartily, patted Shao's father on the back and said, "Xiao Shao, Xiao Shao, your son will be someone in the future! Yanyan," he said He nodded to Shao Yan again, "If you need help in the future, you can come to you, Uncle Li, me, or these uncles and aunts. In the future, if there are any cultural-related activities in S City, Uncle Li will also think about it." Inviting you to come out will be of great benefit to your family's business."

He took a step back, revealing a large group of men and women who came out behind him, all of these people had more or less majesty, but at this moment they all waved their hands politely: "Don't dare to act, just say something if you have any questions. "

Shao Yan heard that the other party was showing kindness, but he didn't think it was so strange, but Shao's father looked ecstatic, and said repeatedly: "That's great, that's great, thank you so much."

He said, and asked in a low voice: "There is another thing."

The other side nodded.

Father Shao said: "The flower brewed at the banquet was also brewed by Yanyan himself. The things he used were quite special and took a lot of work, but they were not well-known. Now, let's think about putting some in the Yumen It's sold in Xili, but I don't know the price..."

The other party nodded suddenly, and smiled connotatively: "Fame is something that doesn't exist now, but it doesn't mean that it won't exist in the future. It's a good thing, fame, it's a matter of time."

He spread out one hand and shook it towards Father Shao, doubled it, and led the people away with a smile. The "attendants" who took the pastry turned around and said goodbye to Father Shao politely before leaving.After they left, Father Shao sent out the bigwigs from another hall, and there was another interaction that was similar with minor differences.But the slap that the big guy slapped at the end was a little different, quadrupling up and down.

Shao Yan opened his hands and looked over and over, not quite understanding the riddles of this era. After Shao's father sent the man back, he couldn't figure it out, and muttered in a low voice: "Such a high price, what a shame! One can shout more than the other..."

"What do you mean?" Shao Yan lay on his father's shoulder, and because he was tired, he stuck his whole body on it, and was hugged and patted by Shao's father in a hurry.

"Yanyan." Shao's father pondered for a while, and said to him with some hesitation, "You said that our wine, priced at [-] a bottle, would it be too dark?"

Shao Yan glanced at him, thinking about money like crazy, how can you make money like this?

"One of them said 5000 and the other [-]..." Shao's father was a little aggrieved, and he thought it was incredible when he said it. After thinking about it, he was still a little embarrassed, "It seems a bit high... I think [-] yuan is about the same gone."

As he said this, he still looked like he had a good conscience, and the expression on his face was full of admiration for his integrity.

Shao Yan lay down on his father drowsily and yawned, so he didn't bother to talk to him.

The author has something to say:

The big devil squatted on the office chair of the unit and tapped on the keyboard, and the leader said happily: "Fatty, you work hard!"

The Great Demon King said, "Yes!"

The leader is stunned, and will definitely give the big devil a bonus!
