After watching Shen Qingluo take a bite, Lin Ruifeng asked excitedly, "How is it? Does it taste okay?"
Shen Qingluo did not answer immediately, but took another bite and chewed it carefully for a while. Then she said excitedly: "It tastes good. It tastes very good. I thought it tasted good because of the orange flavor, but after you fried it, the orange flavor has evaporated, and it is not greasy anymore."
Hearing Shen Qingluo say this, Lin Ruifeng was really a little excited. He quickly took the spoon from Shen Qingluo's hand and scooped up the fried rice and took a bite.
After taking a bite, Lin Ruifeng found that the taste was really good. There was a slight orange fragrance in the fried rice, which neutralized some of the greasiness very well. The fried rice was really quite neat to eat.
However, after eating a few bites, Lin Ruifeng quickly discovered some problems.
Although this helps to reduce the greasiness, there is still some orange flavor in the fried rice, which affects the taste of the fried rice. If you don't like sweet and sour taste, you will be reluctant to eat this kind of fried rice.
Putting down the spoon, Lin Ruifeng shook his head helplessly and said, "No, this tastes bad."
Seeing that Lin Ruifeng was a little depressed, Shen Qingluo comforted him: "Don't be discouraged. If this doesn't work, we can think of other ways. Don't worry."
Lin Ruifeng looked at Shen Qingluo, and a smile broke out on his face when he saw his girlfriend's firm support for him.
"Well, don't worry, I won't be discouraged. If this method doesn't work, we can think of other ways."
Seeing that Lin Ruifeng was still full of fighting spirit, Shen Qingluo was also very happy.
The two then tried various things, such as adding less orange peel, or adding some orange juice instead, but the results were not very good.
When adding orange didn't seem to have a very good effect, Shen Qingluo suggested adding lemon
"We use lemon instead, which is actually a bit lighter in flavor, and lemon juice can actually be diluted, so the flavor is probably even lighter."
After being reminded by Shen Qingluo, Lin Ruifeng suddenly thought of a method that might be worth trying.
It just so happened that the barbecued pork, roast goose and roast duck were already out of the oven, so Lin Ruifeng changed his method and tried a completely new approach.
Prepare the plum sauce according to the recipe given by the master, and add some lemon juice to the sauce.
Afterwards, Lin Ruifeng stir-fried another portion of fried rice. Before serving, he sprayed some diluted lemon juice on it.
Just spray a little bit in, then stir-fry quickly to let the lemon flavor evaporate a little, then put the final touches on the dish, place the various meats on it, and finally pour the plum sauce on the meat.
After these adjustments, the fried rice was presented, and Lin Ruifeng continued to let Shen Qingluo taste it together.
Shen Qingluo looked at the fried rice in front of her. Just by looking at the appearance, she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Just based on the presentation, I think this plate of fried rice is already very good. I think this time it might really work."
Shen Qingluo first scooped up a spoonful of fried rice, and after eating it, he felt that the rice grains were distinct, slightly elastic and soft, and chewing it in his mouth really gave him a lingering fragrance. While eating, he didn't taste any other flavors, and the greasy feeling was also well neutralized.
After taking a mouthful of fried rice, Shen Qingluo picked up a piece of barbecued pork, mixed it with the rice and put it into his mouth.
This time, the barbecued pork with dipping sauce was not greasy at all, and it had a great taste when paired with fried rice. Shen Qingluo thought it was really delicious.
It was just a small plate of fried rice, but Shen Qingluo didn't even let Lin Ruifeng eat it, and he finished it all by himself.
Lin Ruifeng was also a little surprised when he saw Shen Qingluo finish eating.
"You, you actually ate them all?"
Shen Qingluo took out a tissue and wiped his mouth while saying, "Because it's delicious. This time you really neutralized the greasy taste. The barbecued pork and fried rice taste great. And it tastes just like fried rice and barbecued pork, without any other strange smell. I think it's delicious, so I ate it all."
Lin Ruifeng couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Then could you at least leave me a bite so I can taste it?"
Shen Qingluo said with a smile: "Make another one for yourself."
But then he looked at the time and said, "It's almost time now. You should make lunch for everyone, so you should eat with everyone."
Lin Ruifeng asked curiously: "Aren't you going to eat anymore?"
Shen Qingluo raised his hand and gave him a slap: "I've already eaten so much, how can I eat more? Do you want me to become fat? You really have evil intentions."
After hearing this, Lin Ruifeng quickly explained: "No, no, I, I'm just worried that you haven't eaten enough."
Shen Qingluo wiped his mouth and said, "I'm full. I'm almost stuffed. I've already eaten several servings of fried rice."
Lin Ruifeng smiled and nodded: "It's OK as long as you are full, then I will make it for everyone."
Shen Qingluo nodded: "Yes, yes, hurry up and make a portion for everyone. By the way, I think you can add some lemon peel to your dipping sauce. That way, the dipping sauce will retain some lemon fragrance and smell more comfortable. Of course, if you sell it, be prepared to adjust it according to personal preferences."
Lin Ruifeng nodded seriously: "Okay, I will pay attention."
Next, Lin Ruifeng was also very serious and prepared a portion of fried rice for everyone who was going to have lunch at noon.
Of course, he didn't stir-fry it right away, but waited until everyone arrived before stirring it up.
Because fried rice still needs a little bit of heat to make it taste more delicious.
As the saying goes: one hot food is better than three fresh foods.
Finally, after waiting for a while, everyone arrived one after another, and Zhao Daxia also came back with her two sons.
These days, Zhao Daxia takes her two sons out to play in the morning, and makes them have a lot of fun.
Of course, Zhao Daxia still has to stay here to help in the afternoon and evening. And these days, Zhao Daxia's two sons can also help together.
In a few days, Zhao Daxia's husband will come to pick up their son. The three of them, mother and son, are reluctant to part and cherish the time they spend together very much.
After everyone was seated, Lin Ruifeng quickly began to prepare lunch, which was all fried rice today.
According to everyone's taste, Lin Ruifeng made some subtle adjustments.
For example, Zhao Daxia and her two sons prefer a slightly heavier taste, so Lin Ruifeng would make the food a little heavier and put more meat for the two children.
Then Fan Chaodong and Wang Cuifeng’s fried rice is relatively ordinary and the taste is also more popular.
For Liu Wanhua's portion, Raymond Lam had to spend more time to ensure that her fried rice was relatively light. And because Liu Wanhua didn't like greasy food, Raymond Lam would not add barbecued pork or roast goose or duck to her fried rice.
After everyone’s fried rice was served, Lin Ruifeng was still looking forward to everyone’s feedback after eating.
Seeing his nervous look, Shen Qingluo said, "Why don't you make one for yourself? If you don't eat it yourself, how do you know if it's good?"
After hearing this, Lin Ruifeng quickly went to make one for himself.
For his own portion, Lin Ruifeng followed Shen Qingluo's advice and added a little bit of lemon peel when cooking the fried rice, and also added a little bit to the dipping sauce when serving the dish.
When Lin Ruifeng brought out his fried rice, it was still Fan Chaodong who spoke first.
"Well, today's fried rice is great. It tastes very delicious. The seasoning feels just right, not too oily or salty. And the dipping sauce you poured on these pieces of meat is also very sweet and delicious. It's really good. Xiaolin is making great progress."
Wang Cuifeng also said: "Well, Xiaolin has indeed improved rapidly. The fried rice tasted very good today."
Zhao Daxia's youngest son also shouted: "Brother Ruifeng, your fried rice is really delicious."
Zhao Daxia smiled and said, "It's really delicious."
Zhao Daxia’s eldest son also said: “It’s delicious. I feel it’s delicious every day.”
Finally, it was Liu Wanhua's turn. She had already eaten the fried rice on her plate. She smiled and said, "It seems that Xiaolin has really found a way. Today's fried rice tastes very good. It doesn't taste dry. Each grain of rice is coated with egg liquid. It is soft and glutinous with elasticity. The key is that it tastes a little sweet when chewed. It's very good."
Having received Liu Wanhua's approval, Lin Ruifeng was very happy: "Thank you, Grandma Wanhua, and thank you everyone."
Shen Qingluo also said happily: "Hahaha, I knew you could do it, Xiaolin."
Then, Lin Ruifeng also started eating his fried rice.
After tasting his fried rice, Lin Ruifeng discovered a new direction and thought it might be a good direction.
Shen Qingluo did give him a lot of inspiration.
At the same time, Lin Ruifeng also thought that when he was studying how to cook Wagyu beef these days, he also learned some things from it, and now these can actually be combined and applied.
The fried rice at home is cooked in a wok, which is somewhat different from the fried rice on the iron plate.
Teppanyaki fried rice requires the addition of fried rice sauce, so the taste may be a bit heavy.
But when Lin Ruifeng tasted his own fried rice at noon, he thought of some techniques for cooking Wagyu beef, and he came up with an idea that might be useful for teppanyaki fried rice.
That is to add some lemon peel to the fried rice sauce, which can achieve the same effect.
When Lin Ruifeng thought about it, he suddenly felt that his visit to Su Liancheng to tinker with Wagyu cooking these days was not completely fruitless. At least it gave him more new ideas.
The next step is to try various ideas again and again to achieve a balance.
Lin Ruifeng did not hesitate. When he was making the fried rice sauce after lunch, he added some lemon peel.
The fried rice sauce has a slight lemon scent, but overall there is not much change.
He tasted it himself and confirmed that there was no major problem. Then he and Zhao Daxia made the final preparations. At about five o'clock in the afternoon, they rushed to the small market to set up a stall.
When he came to the small market today, Lin Ruifeng saw that Ma Xiaolong's stall had been set up again.
During the days when Lin Ruifeng was studying how to cook Wagyu beef, Ma Xiaolong actually never came to set up the stall.
And today, Ma Xiaolong appeared again, giving Lin Ruifeng a completely different feeling.
When the two looked at each other, Lin Ruifeng saw from Ma Xiaolong's eyes that he would never lose to him. It was obvious that Ma Xiaolong had made sufficient preparations for this stall and was going to compete with Lin Ruifeng seriously.
Lin Ruifeng was not afraid at all, and just looked at Ma Xiaolong very firmly.
Both of them have made sufficient preparations and this time they want to show their strength to each other.
After Lin Ruifeng and Zhao Daxia set up their stalls and both sides finished heating the pot.
Lin Ruifeng had just put everything in place when a burst of delicious food suddenly came from Ma Xiaolong's side, followed by a very harsh frying sound.
Under the double impact of the fragrance and sound, people unconsciously turned their eyes towards Ma Xiaolong.
Then, everyone was surprised to see that Ma Xiaolong actually made a huge meat stick and roasted it on the fire.
As grease continued to seep out and drip onto the flames.
"Sizzle" the oil emits a very tempting aroma after being burned by the flame. Such a direct visual and olfactory impact will make people start to swallow their saliva unconsciously.
Finally, attracted by the tempting aroma, people began to slowly walk towards Ma Xiaolong's stall.
With the first one, there will naturally be a second and a third.
Soon, a lot of people gathered in front of Ma Xiaolong's stall.
However, the people gathered in front of the stall this time were not the beautiful girls who had gathered in front of Ma Xiaolong's stall before because of his appearance. Now, the people gathered in front of his stall were a group of diners who were drooling over his huge barbecue stick, and they were all looking forward to tasting Ma Xiaolong's barbecue fried rice.
Ma Xiaolong put on a warm smile and said to the people gathered in front of the stall: "Please don't be anxious. Please line up first. It will take some time for me to grill the meat. Please line up and you should be able to eat soon."
After he said this, people surrounding the stall immediately started lining up.
Ma Xiaolong started to get busy, brushing sauce on the barbecue while making fried rice at the same time.
When the fried rice was almost done, he took the roasted meat slices off the outer layer of the giant fry, then mixed it into the fried rice and stir-fried it for the last time. After the stir-frying was done, he put the fried rice into a brown paper box, and the fried rice seemed to have turned into a rice ball in an instant.
The first diner who got it, holding the thick brown paper box in his hand, looked at the barbecue and fried rice mixed together inside, and he really couldn't help himself instantly.
Holding the box to his mouth and taking a big bite, the diner's face immediately showed satisfaction.
"Wow, this is really delicious. This is the first time I know that fried rice can be eaten like this?"
The diners waiting in line were all envious and looking forward to their own fried rice. They wanted to get this unique barbecue fried rice as soon as possible and taste its delicious taste.
As a result, Ma Xiaolong's business was booming, and naturally Lin Ruifeng's business became deserted.
