Food: The super chef just wants to set up a stall leisurely

Chapter 260: I grabbed it too quickly and didn’t taste the famous dishes

But this does not mean that Wan Yuyue did a bad job or that Zhao Xiaojing and Master Gu made a mistake.

This situation is precisely caused by Wan Yuyue's strong intuition in cooking.

Wan Yuyue usually cooks in one go, relying on her intuition and ideas, without hesitation or shrinking back. When she feels right, she can often create surprises, and she does not need Zhao Xiaojing to teach her over and over again to learn a dish.

However, because of his strong intuition, he always relies too much on it and is unable to be as cautious as Yun Yongyuan in some details. He often makes the same mistake again the second time after making the first one.

Zhao Xiaojing’s stir-fried dishes sell best in the store, and Yun Yongyuan and Wan Yuyue both practice according to her steps and taste.

Although Zhao Xiaojing believes that every chef has his or her own style and taste, and that a hundred flowers bloom and each has its own differences is the way to long-term development, these two people have little experience in formal culinary studies and are not yet able to form their own style. Instead, they make faster progress through imitation.

Yun Yongyuan arrived earlier than Wan Yuyue. He is very careful when cooking and is currently performing stably. In the few dishes he cooks regularly, he has learned about 60% to 70% of what Zhao Xiaojing does.

Wan Yuyue's cooking skills are as unique as her own. Since she can finally cook, she has little experience but a lot of ideas. She comes up with all kinds of novel methods. When she cooks well, she can perform 80% to 90% of Zhao Xiaojing's, but when she cooks badly, even dogs won't eat it.

It was precisely because of this that Wan Yuyue captured Wu Kaile, a tall, strong, and somewhat silly-looking man, to serve as a tester for the dishes.

But Wu Kaile is fooled every time, but Dangdang is different.

"It's time to eat!" In a blink of an eye, Wan Yuyue and Yun Yongyuan finished cooking the dishes for the last three guests. When all the prepared dishes were gone, Wan Yuyue cheered, quickly washed the pot and ran towards Zhao Xiaojing, "Junior sister, take a rest, let me serve!

Wow, it smells so good! Why didn’t I see you making this dish? What is this dish? "

Wan Yuyue stared at the plate in front of her with curiosity. On the plate was a large plate of golden fried strips that were cut into squares, but because they were wrapped in fluffy batter, they looked very irregular. From the cut, one could see the soft and fibrous meat inside, and there was also the trembling white and brown mixed skin. As Zhao Xiaojing took it out of the microwave, a scent of oil wafted into her face.

"Don't move. Be careful of the heat. Just take the sauce and green onion shreds from the bag over there.

This is pot-roasted pork elbow, packed from outside, have you heard of it? "

Zhao Xiaojing took out the roasted pork elbow from the microwave while wearing gloves, and said with her head tilted.

"So this is called pot-roasted pork elbow! I've never heard of it." Wan Yuyue made way and turned back to look for the bag that Zhao Xiaojing mentioned.

"Isn't that Shandong cuisine?" Yun Yongyuan finished washing the pot and wiped the stove, hung the rag in the cleaning area, and walked over.

"Yes, I asked Suozi to pack some from the Shandong restaurant yesterday to try how it tastes and see if I can replicate it." Zhao Xiaojing said as she walked towards the front hall. Yun Yongyuan turned around and put the remaining hot pot dishes on two trays. Wan Yuyue put the sauce, dipping sauce, chopped green onions, and small pancakes for the pot-roasted pork elbow on small plates one by one, and followed him out of the kitchen.

"Sister Geng, Sister Hou! Come eat!" Su Yuchen saw the three of them coming out, walked to the door and shouted to the next door.

There were three or five other customers eating in the store. The tables for Zhao Xiaojing and her colleagues' employees had already been set up. The pork ribs and lotus root stewed were placed steadily in the middle. An electric hot pot was placed next to it, with bright red tomato stew bubbling inside.

The other people were clearing the table and doing a rough and simple cleanup while waiting for the three people in the kitchen. When they saw that the three people had finished their work, they called out to each other and gathered together.

Zhao Xiaojing placed the braised pork elbow on the other side of the braised pork ribs and lotus root, then took the small plate from Wan Yuyue's hand and placed all the pork elbow ingredients next to it. Yun Yongyuan turned around and placed two large trays of hot pot dishes on the table behind him.

Everyone smelled the fragrance and filled their plates with shining eyes.

"Eat, eat, eat." Zhao Xiaojing called out, and her chopsticks moved around in a circle, reaching straight for the pot-roasted pork elbow in front of her, and she tasted a piece.

The first feeling when you take a bite is crispy. The batter is a little thick, but quite fluffy. The elbow is tender wrapped in it and melts in your mouth after just a few chews. It is not greasy, but the taste is a little bland.

Zhao Xiaojing picked up the pancake again, put a few shredded green onions in it, picked up a piece of pork elbow, dipped it in the dry sauce, dipped the other side in the sauce, rolled it in the pancake, and ate half of it in one bite.

Only then did I realize that the dry sauce was pepper and salt, and the sauce was sweet noodle sauce that was diluted and lightly seasoned.

The taste of the pork elbow is greatly improved after being dipped in pepper and salt. The pepper and salt are not the pepper and salt powder on the market, but the kind that seems to be homemade. The slight aroma of salt and pepper not only makes up for the blandness of the pork elbow, but also magically improves the taste, adding a refreshing and salty soul to the rich and soft meat. The layer of sweet noodle sauce on the outside complements the green onions and small pancakes, which not only relieves the greasiness but also gives this pot-roasted pork elbow a multi-layered taste.

As she was savoring the food, Su Yuchen put another piece of pancake into her bowl, and then two pieces of pork elbow.

Zhao Xiaojing looked up reflexively, and sure enough, the plate of braised pork elbow was empty, with only shredded green onions, sweet bean sauce, and a sauce of pepper and salt left.

Yes, there were nine people at the table, nine of them were big eaters, and eight of them were eating at double the speed. Each of them took two pieces of pork elbow, and not a single piece of pork elbow was left.

"Aren't you thinking about eating? But after eating, you start to daydream again. I think you'll be left alone without me." Su Yuchen looked at her with disdain, turned around and joined the battle for pork ribs and stewed lotus root.

“Why are you suddenly interested in this dish, Junior Sister? I didn’t expect that Jiangcheng Shandong Restaurant would have such a troublesome dish.” Yun Yongyuan wiped his hands and said.

"Trouble? Is there anything special about this dish? Isn't it fried pork elbow in the style of Peking duck?" Ouyang Yidan looked up from his rice, looking confused.

Zhao Xiaojing chuckled, "This is a famous Shandong dish from the eight major cuisines, pot-roasted pork elbow. Your sister Shuzi brought it back from Jianghe District specially!"

"Hey, Xiao Zhao, why didn't you tell me earlier? I grabbed the food too quickly and couldn't even taste the flavor of the famous dish!" Hou Guihua slapped her thigh.

"That's right, sister, you didn't remind me!" Ouyang Yidan stared at the empty plate in front of her with regret, and quickly stretched out her chopsticks to pick up the last noodle residue at the bottom of the plate into the bowl.

Wu Kaile on the side also had a look of regret on his face. He was even more heartbroken to see that the scumbag was gone.

However, Lu Hongwen was much calmer, just like Su Yuchen and Yun Yongyuan who knew about it earlier.

"I don't know if it's because of the region, but my family and I ate this dish when we traveled to Shan Province before. I felt that the pork elbow there was stewed more fragrantly, and the sauce used was different, it was some kind of tiger sauce there, and it tasted better overall than this."
