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

Chapter 164: Because of a Salted Duck Egg

"It's more comfortable to eat the food you cook. Let's cook it ourselves in the future. I felt like I hadn't eaten anything after finishing those three buns yesterday. It's not that I wasn't full, but I just didn't feel like my appetite was right, and I lost some joy in eating." Su Yuchen sighed after taking a bite of the pancake.

The six golden pancakes are very attractive, and the orange-red carrot shreds and emerald green onions are evenly embedded in the yellow pancakes. Just looking at the color combination makes people feel that it is rich in nutrition. One bite can taste the freshness of eggs, the sweetness of carrots, and the light fragrance of onions. The seasoning is also just the right salty and fragrant taste.

After taking two bites of the pancake, pick up a piece of refreshing and tender lotus root with chopsticks. The slight sourness carries the unique aroma of lotus root, and it has another kind of crisp taste.

"Okay, I'll make whatever my sister wants to eat." Zhao Xiaojing smiled at Su Yuchen who was enjoying her meal and gently stirred the pumpkin porridge. "It's just that the porridge cools down too slowly, otherwise it would be delicious to eat a mouthful of porridge and a side dish, and pair it with a salted duck egg."

"Salted duck eggs, can we make them?" Su Yuchen became excited when he heard it.

Zhao Xiaojing thought about it and said, "I've never made it before, but if I have a chance I can learn how to pickle it and give it a try.

By the way, you can pickle some side dishes. We can cook porridge and make pancakes for breakfast in the future, or steam a batch of buns and freeze them when you have time. Then, heat up two of them for breakfast and add some side dishes and salted duck eggs. It is convenient and delicious.

I just don’t know who knows how to pickle it, and who I should ask.”

"My mother can! Just wait!" Su Yuchen was very tempted by Zhao Xiaojing's suggestion and immediately took out his phone and dialed the number.

"Hey, you're not...!" Zhao Xiaojing was about to open her mouth to stop him when she heard the phone being connected, and a hoarse voice shouting "Hello" came from Su Yuchen's phone.

"Mom, don't you know how to make salted duck eggs, the kind with red yolks and oil? How do you make it?" Su Yuchen asked impatiently.

"Why are you asking this? Can you do it yourself? Last time I asked you to leave a day later than usual and I got it from your grandma's house, but you didn't make it. All the duck eggs at your grandma's house were pickled by me, and now you're leaving in such a hurry!" Su Ma's loud voice came from the noisy environment on the opposite side. Su Yuchen tilted his head back and silently turned down the volume of his phone.

"Hey, stop talking nonsense, just tell me how to do it, it's not me who does it!"

"Who is doing it? Are you in a relationship? Do you want to have sex?" Su Ma shouted excitedly.

"Mom, what the hell is this? Why is your brain circuit different from others?" Su Yuchen suddenly became anxious, "Zhao Xiaojing did it! Zhao Xiaojing!"

Zhao Xiaojing covered her mouth and laughed so hard that she didn't even eat the cake.

"Oh, Xiaojing." Su's mother said in a sullen tone, "This pickled duck egg is very simple. First, wash the duck eggs and dry them. Use more flour and salt to wash the duck eggs. Soak them for a while, brush them clean, dry them, and then..."

Getting to the point, Zhao Xiaojing listened carefully while turning on the recording on her mobile phone. The steps were indeed simple. After Su Ma finished speaking, Zhao Xiaojing nodded at Su Yuchen.

"Okay, got it. Bye bye." Su Yuchen saw that Zhao Xiaojing understood it after just one reading, so he raised his hand and prepared to hang up.

"Hey, wait a minute! Why are you calling at this time to ask about salted duck eggs? Why are you asking about salted duck eggs when you are not at work?" Su's mother yelled again, raising her voice.

Su Yuchen was startled and looked at Zhao Xiaojing with wide eyes, he had forgotten about this!

Zhao Xiaojing had expected this, and calmly raised her phone to show Su Yuchen the two words she had just written. Su Yuchen understood immediately and grinned at Zhao Xiaojing. "Mom, our company is having a team building today. I'm in the car now. I just remembered this and asked you. Hang up!"

"Team building, you don't even have a partner and you just play around every day! Don't call me next time if you don't have a partner. I'm hanging up!" Su's mother cursed and hung up directly.

"I said you can't leave...

Do you think my mom is outrageous?!" Su Yuchen was hung up before she could finish her words, and asked Zhao Xiaojing with a frustrated look.

Zhao Xiaojing laughed heartily for a while before answering, holding her stomach. "I just wanted to remind you that you should be at work at this time, but you acted too quickly!

You've been pretending for so long, and every time you call, you do it at night. How come a salted duck egg has exposed your true colors today?"

"That's because I was too greedy as you said. I thought of the salted duck eggs my mother made. The yolk was red, oily and sandy, and it smelled so good. I forgot about it because I wanted to eat it so much!" Su Yuchen pouted and stirred the pumpkin porridge depressedly.

"Don't stir it, the temperature is just right, drink it quickly!" Zhao Xiaojing smiled, cleaned up her own bowl and chopsticks, and walked towards the kitchen first.

I checked Xiaozhi's statistics yesterday and found that in addition to the pork trotter rice, the three fresh vegetables, the braised chicken with mushrooms, and the beef brisket with potatoes also sold well and were the first to be sold out. Moreover, when customers add more rice, they will ask for another spoonful of soup, saying that it is very fragrant when soaking the rice.

The pig's feet are braised one day in advance and need to be soaked overnight after braising, so there is no way to make changes based on the sales of the day. However, the other three dishes are prepared a lot more thanks to Xiaozhi's adjustments.

And for slow-cooked dishes like potato brisket and braised chicken with mushrooms, you can actually make the amount for lunch and dinner all at once in the morning. Make a little more soup, and the flavor will be better after soaking for an afternoon in the evening. The soup will be rich and the meat will be full of flavor.

After stewing the potatoes, beef brisket and chicken with mushrooms, Zhao Xiaojing started to do something behind the scenes with her back to Su Yuchen who was frying peanuts.

While slicing the meat yourself, secretly use the shortcut module to slice it as well. Put them all in a bowl after slicing. Do it in small amounts and multiple times. It won't be so obvious each time, but it saves half the time and energy together.

Then follow the same procedure, pretending to rinse the ingredients a few times, and secretly use the module to clean them.

Before half past ten, all the dishes were prepared. Zhao Xiaojing washed her hands carefully and went to the plain area to prepare the dessert.

Following Lu Hongwen's advice, we now make two hot and two cold desserts. The cold ones are still fruit bowls and iced tofu pudding, while the hot ones are tangerine peel and red bean paste and coconut milk meatballs.

Red bean paste needs to be cooked on the same day, but the taro balls and adazi in the colorful fruit bowl, as well as the sago and meatballs in the meatball bowl, can be made for a few days at a time and frozen for storage. When making them, just take them out and cook them on the same day.

So now you just need to cook the red bean paste and then make the tofu pudding.

By the time Zhao Xiaojing turned the heat down from high to medium for cooking the red beans, Su Yuchen had also finished preparing. He washed his hands and came over, carefully scraping the soaked tangerine peel with a knife.

There is a layer of white pulp inside the tangerine peel. Scraping it off can remove the bitter taste of the tangerine peel without affecting the nutrition and unique sweetness of the tangerine peel itself.

After scraping it off, cut it into thin strips, wait until the red beans are cooked into sand, then add it into the pot and continue stewing.

At eleven o'clock, Zhao Xiaojing turned down the fire for stewing the red beans and started to prepare Wen Jin's 33 orders. Su Yuchen also went to the hall to wait for the guests.
