Chapter 1638: Young ginger jumping into the water frog
Translator: 549690339
After sending Xiao Ya off, Yuan Zhou returned to his restaurant. While preparing the dinner, he suddenly thought of something,”wait a minute. Did I forget to ask the brat again? why did he call Wu Hai brother and me uncle?”
“You Must Remember This next time.” Yuan Zhou made up his mind again.
At dinner, among the customers in the line outside, a girl broke up and cried on the spot.
Fortunately, the girl’s friends were there and comforted her for a long time, so she didn’t feel so heartbroken.
When the second batch of customers entered the restaurant and Zhou Jia came to order the dishes, the girl sat there, crying.
“Is there anything that can make me forget my sadness and heartbreak?” the loveless girl asked.”Something like the love-forgetting water.”
“Er …” How do you expect Zhou Jia to answer?
Fortunately, sister Wan heard this and said,””I’m very sorry to interrupt your conversation. But if you want to forget the dish of falling out of love, I can recommend a dish. Besides, boss Yuan also has it here. ”
“What dish?” The girl’s eyes were still a little red from crying too hard just now.
“Young ginger jumped into the water and became a frog. Do you know?” Sister Wan said.
…
“Then I’ll order this dish.” The girl said.
The friend next to the girl ordered a plate of garlic water spinach and two bowls of rice. Then, the two of them were done.
After Zhou Jia passed the menu to Yuan Zhou, she was a little hesitant. The requirements of the girl who had just broken up with her boyfriend were too strange. She was afraid that boss Yuan’s cooking skills would be doubted.
“It’s okay, continue to order. ” Yuan Zhou had never been good at listening to other people’s conversation, but because of his excellent hearing, he naturally knew what was going on in the restaurant. He also saw Zhou Jia’s hesitation, so he comforted her.
The name ‘young ginger diving frog’ was very strange, but actually, diving was not the name of the frog. Diving was a way of cooking, such as diving fish, diving rabbit, diving beef, and even diving duck and chicken if you liked.
Back to the main topic, diving was not a unique cooking method in Sichuan cuisine. It was also available in Hunan cuisine and even Qin cuisine. These dishes that contained diving were all spicy.
As for the young ginger diving frog, it was a small river Gang cuisine and was the best among the spicy dishes.
Ever since Yuan Zhou got the complete set of Sichuan cuisines and put them on the menu, Wu Hai, who had sworn to eat spicy food, had ordered all the cuisines of the Xiaohe gang at once and tasted them.
The reason was that Sichuan cuisine was generally divided into three types: upper hebang, small hebang, and lower hebang.
The origin of these three divisions was relatively early. Among them, Shanghe gang was a Chengdu school of rongpai cuisines with Chengdu as the core. The taste was mild and mostly consisted of traditional home-cooked dishes. In general, they were not that spicy, and even had a variety of flavors.
Xiahe gang, on the other hand, represented a Mountain City with a rich dock culture. The food there was generous and rough, and the ingredients used were bold and not limited to the ingredients.
Finally, the Little River Gang focused on the spicy and fresh fragrance. Among them, the taste of fresh pepper was rich, and their cooking techniques were strange. It was a full Jianghu cuisine.
The ginger diving frog that sister Wan asked this girl to order came from the Xiaohe gang’s cuisine.
The bullfrogs provided by the system were bred by scientific means. Each of them weighed 200 grams after they were cleaned. Of course, this was also closely related to Yuan Zhou’s sharp knife skills.
Moreover, in order to ensure its freshness, Yuan Zhou always killed the frog on the spot every time a customer ordered it. Because the speed was so fast that when the customer saw it again, there would only be white and tender frog meat left.
Today was no exception. Yuan Zhou took out the Bullfrog that he had just prepared and started to cook it.
As the name suggested, young ginger was an essential seasoning for the young ginger diving frog. The ancient people once said that they would eat radish in winter and ginger in summer, and now that it was Midsummer, it was naturally good to eat young ginger.
The tender yellow young ginger was cut into fine threads of equal size and laid flat in a row.
As for diving, it was a cooking technique for Tributes. It was derived from the meaning of diving in the ‘diving kimchi’.
This diving kimchi was also called bathing kimchi in Zigong. It referred to the fact that the raw materials of the kimchi were only soaked in the kimchi jar for one to two days. Compared to the old kimchi, the diving kimchi could maintain the crispness and tenderness of the vegetable itself. At the same time, the sourness was lower, so it tasted fresh and delicious.
As such, the most unique characteristic of this young ginger diving frog was that it could guarantee the freshness and tenderness of the frog meat.
Because of the system, the customers couldn’t smell anything at all even though Yuan Zhou was cooking such a heavy-smelling dish in the open kitchen.
Therefore, only when Yuan Zhou called Zhou Jia to serve the dishes did everyone see the small pot of bright red being carried to the girl.
This was another characteristic of tribute dishes, which was that they were hot. The bright red oil maintained the temperature of the dish very well.
“Here’s your ginger-infused diving frog. Please enjoy. ” Zhou Jia carried the dishes to him quickly and then retreated to the side.
Because at this time, the heartbroken girl was still crying.
However, the bright and eye-catching dishes in front of her still attracted her attention.
A layer of bright red oil was laid out, and the snow-white Frog meat was hidden within. There were also traces of tender yellow ginger, and on top of it, there were some green onions that were the finishing touch.
“Ah Qiu.” The heartbroken girl had tears in her eyes and tear stains on her face, but she was covering her mouth and nose tightly with a piece of paper, showing such a dazed look.
That’s right, when the girl saw such a beautiful and appetizing dish, she couldn’t help but take a deep breath. However, she had underestimated the spiciness of the dish, which was why she choked and sneezed, resulting in this somewhat comical scene.
“Are you alright? Are you okay?” The girl’s friend asked with concern.
After shaking her head and sneezing, the girl picked up her chopsticks and prepared to eat.
“I heard that you won’t feel uncomfortable after eating it.” The girl mumbled softly, then picked up a white and tender frog leg and stuffed it into her mouth without even looking.
As she said this, the tears in the girl’s eyes continued to flow like a tap that had been turned on.
His friends at the side nodded and chimed in, not in a hurry to move their chopsticks.
The frog meat was white and tender. The first thing that entered his mouth was the faint taste of young ginger, but most of it was a spicy taste that rushed straight into his stomach.
“Hiss, it’s so spicy,” The girl felt her tears flowing even more happily.
After all, the spiciness would also stimulate the secretion of tear glands, and this extremely spicy taste would naturally be even more stimulating.
The girl’s friend silently handed her a tissue, but the girl still habitually wiped her tears with the back of her hand after she wiped them.
However, after the extremely spicy feeling, a fresh and delicious taste spread in her mouth. This fresh and delicious taste immediately smoothened out the stimulation in her mouth, allowing the girl to begin to enjoy the taste of frog meat.
That’s right, the girl started to chew on the frog meat.
The frog meat was extremely tender, and it almost fell off after a sip. However, when he chewed it, it was tender, smooth, and had an elasticity that couldn’t be ignored.
The frog meat was so delicious that when she spat out the bone, the heartbroken girl couldn’t help but suck on it.
“It’s so spicy,” He took a sip of the frog meat and tasted the spiciness again, but it was much gentler than the tyrannical taste when it first entered his mouth.
It was a spicy and fragrant feeling.
“It’s delicious. ” The girl used the back of her left hand to wipe away the tears on her face, then continued to reach out with her chopsticks.
Seeing that the girl could continue to eat, the friend beside her was relieved and couldn’t help smiling at sister Wan gratefully.
This time, she picked up even more. An entire frog leg and a few thin slices of ginger were sent into her mouth in one bite.
However, the heartbroken girl finally understood why the first taste was so domineering. It was because it was hot.
That’s right, the hot and spicy taste of the young ginger water frog was so stimulating that the girl couldn’t help crying every time she took a bite.
However, the spicier it was, the more she couldn’t stop her hands from picking up the food.
Just like that, with every bite, the girl would wipe the tears from her face. However, the more she ate, the calmer her expression became. At this time, her friends at the side had already immersed themselves in the deliciousness of the food.
In other words, it had turned into another kind of excitement, because not only were tears streaming down her face, but a thin layer of sweat had also appeared on her forehead.
Of course, this was all because it was spicy.
Her lips, which had turned pale from crying, were now bright red, as if she had applied a layer of red lipstick. She looked much more energetic.
“It’s delicious. ” The girl kept breathing in as she ate.
At this time, the girl’s mind was completely occupied by delicious food and spicy food, and she had no time to think about sad things.
And sister Wan’s purpose was indeed achieved. In the restaurant, the dinner continued.
“Sister Wan, sister Wan, it turns out that the legendary forget love water is the diving frog!” After dinner time ended, Zhou Jiaxing rushed to find sister Wan, who was waiting outside the door, and expressed that she had learned something new today.
“There’s no tears that a frog can’t stop crying. If there is, then ask the boss to make it spicier. ” Sister Wan smiled.
“Just now, someone spread this matter to Yuan’s restaurant,” said Zhou Jia.”I guess the diving frogs will be popular.”
“Let’s go. I drove here today, so I’ll give you a ride. ” Sister Wan said.
“Well, isn’t sister Wan waiting for someone?” Zhou Jia said.
“I can’t come because I’m busy.” “So I’m going back,” sister Wan said.
“Hehe, thank you in advance, sister Wan. I won’t be polite then.” Zhou Jia said.
As they spoke, the two walked side by side to the parking lot not far from the end of the street. There were so many people on Taoxi road every day, and the street office had planned many parking lots. So for now, there was no problem.
Sister Wan’s car was a SIERRA, a very crude pickup truck that did not look like a girl’s car at all. Coincidentally, Queen Jiang also had a pickup truck, but it was a Ford F650. Of course, it was much more expensive, and the cost of modification was not included.
Zhou Jia was sitting in the front passenger seat while sister Wan was driving.
“Sister Wan, I think you’re really good. You can handle everything. Why don’t you start your own business?” Zhou Jia asked curiously.
“Because there are three things-whether you can handle it well, whether you can be an entrepreneur, and whether you can be a good manager.” Sister Wan said.
“Oh …” Actually, Zhou Jia felt that it was just one thing. The main reason she thought so was that she had no experience.
Originally, Zhou Jia would stay for one or two more hours before going home. But today, she came home on time after work, mainly because … Her father in law’s wife came.
Sister Wan and her best friend Yaya had made an appointment to have dinner together today. This was also the reason why Chen Wei didn’t come with them today. The main reason was that Chen Wei didn’t like sister Wan’s best friend very much.
Sister Wan arrived early. Therefore, there wasn’t a single person in line at Yuan Zhou’s restaurant so that all the other customers could come and eat.
Therefore, she called him immediately, but he didn’t answer her phone or reply to her WeChat. Sister Wan had no choice but to eat in the restaurant first.
One minute before Zhou Jia left the restaurant, Yaya called to explain that she couldn’t come because she suddenly had something to do and forgot to tell sister Wan.
Really, sister Wan had a good temper.
Although the weather forecast said that there would be a light rain tonight, Yuan Zhou didn’t prepare to cook the BBQ. That was because the moon was bright and the stars were sparse in the evening. It didn’t look like it was going to rain at all. Therefore, it was naturally the pub that was going to open for business.
After all, Yuan Zhou always cooked the BBQ according to the weather forecast of the system. Since the system didn’t say that there would be rain, it naturally wouldn ‘t.
“That’s good. I’ll have time to complete the second real perfume experiment in the tavern.” Yuan Zhou muttered to himself.
While Yuan Zhou was thinking, Shen Min had already opened the door of the pub and then welcomed the customers into the pub.
Sometimes, the key to the gate would be kept with Shen Min. It was also a kind of trust.
“The farewell banquet is tomorrow night.” Yuan Zhou suddenly thought of this matter.
“I should check the amount of money in the red packet.” Yuan Zhou worked earnestly. No matter what time it was, he would always finish the work and then check it twice.
When Yuan Zhou went upstairs and opened the drawer, he saw two red packets quietly placed inside. They were bulging and naturally, they were filled with cash.
One was Zhou Jia and the other was Shen Min. Yuan Zhou even specially chose a large red packet with the words “all the best” written on it.
Yuan Zhou counted the red notes carefully. One, two, three, four …
“Yes, the amount is just right.” Yuan Zhou put down the red packet and closed the drawer.
After returning to the first floor, Yuan Zhou went to the kitchen and started to restore the real perfume. First, he cooked the transparent water.
Water = soup
That’s right. Yuan Zhou believed that the true appearance of the real perfume was the soup.
There was milk soup, and there was also soup as clear as tea. These two kinds of soup were equal. Milk soup was not a soup with milk, but because the protein and fat had been fully dissolved in the water, it produced a milk-like white color. This could be done by making poached egg crucian carp soup at home.
Of course, what Yuan Zhou wanted today was the soup as clear as tea. Yuan Zhou had carefully read the travel journal of guanggong and the description of the real perfume was “transparent in water”. He automatically understood it as colorless and transparent.
But in fact, transparent and colorless were two different concepts. Yuan Zhou chose the simplest fresh mushroom soup.
It was very easy to make the soup as clear as tea. First, he washed all kinds of fungi and dried them.
Then, he put Angelica dahurica, chuanqiong, red dates, chrysanthemums, water, and finally fresh mushrooms into the cup. He sealed the cup and let it simmer over water.
About 40 minutes later, the soup was out. The soup was clear, with only a little brown like tea, completely transparent like in the book.
Yuan Zhou scooped the noodles into the bowl with a spoon and let them cool. After cooling them down, he put them into the refrigerator to ice them. Meanwhile, he also kneaded the noodles while stewing the soup.
To recreate the miracle of the real perfume, he had to start from kneading the dough. Yuan Zhou kneaded the dough until it was quite chewy.
After the dough was kneaded, it began to cook. Yuan Zhou only added a little salt when cooking the noodles and deliberately missed the best time to scoop them up.
He lifted the pot.
Yuan Zhou took the chopsticks to eat the noodles. As the noodles had been cooked for a long time, they were a little soft and there was only a little saltiness. Naturally, they were not delicious.
“Now, it’s time to witness a miracle.” Yuan Zhou said.
He took out the iced fresh mushroom soup. After it cooled down, the brown color of the fresh mushroom soup became lighter, and it really looked like clear water. He poured it into the noodles.
The slightly soft noodles instantly quivered when they came into contact with the cold fresh mushroom soup, and the noodles became a little chewy.
The broth originally only had a little saltiness, but after the broth was added, the umami and chewy noodles instantly became delicious.
“System, does this method meet the requirements for real perfume?” Yuan Zhou asked.
The system displayed,”satisfied. After the system’s judgment, the second method is more satisfactory than the first method recorded in the ancient books.”
“Hahaha, I knew it, I’m a genius!” Notice that Yuan Zhou was shouting crazily in his heart and didn’t shout it out. Although he really wanted to shout it out, he couldn’t break his character setting.
