"Mr. Fan! You really know how to joke! Just now, the people in your family hurriedly went to Zuixianlou to invite my father, and said that all the ingredients are from our Zuixianlou! You didn't give us the menu, so of course we use what we have. What's the matter! Now that the bear's paw has been brought, and you are about to cook it, you said you want to eat abalone! Isn't it difficult for the strong!" Wen Rou couldn't bear it.
"Yo! This girl! Fan has learned your eloquence and courage! After all, our Fan family is also the richest man in Xianyang. It's like we don't give money. So what if you get this bear's paw? It's already done. So what? I won't eat it, but the money will still be paid!" After finishing speaking, Fan Jian took out an ingot of yellow-orange gold from his bosom, and slapped it in front of Rou Rou.
"Listen! This is the money from the bear's paw! No need to look for it, my young master is going to eat abalone today! Hurry up and make it! Don't tell me that you don't have it, or you didn't bring it! Tangtang Zuixianlou, these ingredients are all No, it’s better to close the door! Hahahaha!” Fan Jian said and walked away.
"This... is too deceiving!" Wen Shouzheng trembled with anger.
"Master, what should we do? We don't have any abalones, so it may be too late to buy them now! I don't know if there are any in the market!" Fang Dashi was worried at the side.
"Father, I have a solution!" Wen Wen said calmly.
"Sister Rou'er, stay here with Master. I run fast. I'll go to the market to try my luck. If not, I'll look for other restaurants to see if I can find one or two." Fang Dashi said He quickly took off his apron, and got ready to go hunting for abalones.
"Shitou, come back, I'll go!" Wen Shouzheng called Fang Dashi to a stop. "I'm familiar with markets and restaurants in the Xianyang area!" Wen Shouzheng said.
"Brother Shitou, you don't have to go; dad, don't worry, look at me!" Rou Rou pursed her lips, turned around calmly, and walked towards the food basket.
"Where did you put it... I remember bringing it here..." Gentle bent down, carefully picking and pulling in the basket.
"Rou'er, what are you looking for?" Wen Shouzheng asked curiously.
"Ha! Here it is!" The gentle eyes seemed to have discovered a treasure. It gave off a strange brilliance, and immediately grabbed a large fresh Bailing mushroom, giggling non-stop.
"Rou'er, what are you doing with a mushroom? This kid is really messing things up!" Wen Shouzheng sighed, lowered his eyelids again, and was still about to leave Fan's mansion to look for abalones.
"Father, let's change today too. You and brother Shitou are in charge of cooking, and I'll be the chef. Leave this main course to me!" Rourou was very serious.
"Stop messing around. Dad knows that you want to take responsibility for Dad! About you and Mr. Fan. Dad has heard a thing or two. It is clear that Mr. Fan is here for you. No matter how bad Dad is, he will not Send my daughter to the muzzle of the gun! Since we don’t have abalone, I’ll make bear’s paws! It must be delicious. Mr. Fan won’t blame him either!” Wen Shouzheng pondered for a while.
"Father! I have made it clear that the visitor is not good! No matter how delicious your bear paws are, they will not buy it! Father, don't worry! Look at me! Mr. Song Tao can subdue him, and he still cares about a Fan Jian ?" Rourou persuaded Wen Shouzheng.
"What can you do?" Wen Shouzheng paused for a moment before asking back.
Gentlely smiled and didn't answer, just a few self-contained strokes divided a large Bailing mushroom into several small ones.
Put them all in the basin, pour water carefully, and scrub slowly.
"Hey! Today's Bailing Mushrooms are getting bigger, Rou'er should change them into small pieces. Otherwise, we won't be able to fry them through!" Wen Shouzheng was still standing beside Rourou at this moment, although he didn't know what the girl was going to do, he just casually guided her.
"Father, today's Bailing mushroom is just the right size! Look at it!" With a smile on her face, Rourou casually touched the knife she brought. After turning around a few times, a washed Bailing mushroom was trimmed into an oval shape.
Then, turn it over again, the base of the Bailing mushroom is facing up, and the skillful hands continue to cultivate...
"Rou'er, this is..." Wen Shouzheng was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a moment.
In the gentle hands, what was just a round and ordinary white spirit mushroom turned into a top-quality abalone with a fat and round body.
Bailing mushroom is white and yellowish, and its color is very similar to that of abalone. In addition, it is sculpted by gentle and skillful hands. The thick feet and flat soles of the abalone appear vividly in the gentle hands.
"Master, what's the matter?" Fang Dashi was busy preparing dishes, when he saw that Wen Shouzheng hadn't moved for a long time, he heard another exclamation, thinking something happened!
"Ah! This is it!" At this moment, Fang Dashi stood behind Wen Shouzheng, and also exclaimed from the bottom of his heart.
"Father, brother Shitou, do you think it looks like it?" Gentle held up the newly carved Bailing mushroom.
"What is it like? This is it!" Wen Shouzheng nodded frequently.
"Sister Rou'er, you really have it! How did you come up with it!" Fang Dashi scratched his head foolishly. The tension just now has long since disappeared without a trace.
"Brother Shitou, stop praising me, this thing must not only be similar in shape, but also have the same taste and taste!" Rourou lowered her head in embarrassment, and continued to sculpt other Bailing mushrooms.
"Rou'er, don't worry, this abalone is originally like shark's fin, it doesn't have any taste, it has to be cooked until it tastes good! Now that the main ingredients are already available, this taste! Naturally, don't worry!" Wen Shou was hanging A heart finally fell.
"Father, do you still want to make today's abalone?" Rourou turned her head and asked with a smile.
"This..." Wen Shouzheng had already planned to roll up his sleeves and start to take over. Hearing Ruan Rou's words, his old face really couldn't bear it.
The idea is gentle, and you can't take the credit halfway! Besides, Ruan Rou has been learning how to cook with herself in the past two months, and her methods of making soup have been mastered by Ruan Ruan's photographic memory.
"Forget it, today, Daddy will be your second cook! Let's work together! Hahahaha!" Wen Shouzheng laughed.
"Father, no need! You should go and do cooking or something! Four tables of banquets, Brother Shitou can't handle it all by himself! After all, there is only one main dish, and the rest depends on side dishes to support the scene!" Gentle and grinning, he pushed Wen Shouzheng.
I turned around to look for the ingredients for cooking "abalone" broth.
Today's reed chicken is particularly fat, and the pork belly is also top-notch! There is also Jinhua ham purchased years ago! Gentle and full of joy, cut the reed chicken, pork belly, and ham into large pieces, put them in the pot, boil on high heat, beat off the foam, add the fresh soup prepared by Zuixianlou, add salt, soy sauce, and bring to a boil , Add cooking wine, whole ginger, green onion.
Turned around a few times, thinking that there seemed to be something missing.
Open the lid of the seafood and wash the shelled clams with good degree. The gentle eye sockets reflected.
"Haha, let's add freshness to freshness!" Ruan Rou said to herself, throwing the clams into the stock pot at the same time, and skimming off the foam again.
At this moment, the pot is already very fragrant, all kinds of high-quality soup ingredients are flying in the pot, and the color of the soup in the pot has turned into a thick milky white.
"The soup is almost ready, it's time for you to come on stage!" Rourou lifted the lid of the pot, inspected the color of the soup, tasted the taste of the soup, and carefully wrapped the "abalone" with gauze. Add to broth and boil until soft. Long lasting.
While the delicious broth is simmering. Gently peel the carrots and cut into diamond-shaped pieces. Then blanch some broccoli, cut into large florets with a knife, and wash the morels. Then he stopped and took a breath.
Wen Shouzheng and Fang Dashi's side were already filled with spatulas, and all kinds of exquisite dishes, no matter whether they were meat or vegetarian, all showed their skillful skills and attractive dishes.
Genuine estimated that the time was almost up, put the broccoli, ginkgo, morels, and carrot cubes into the pot, added the broth that had just been boiled, added a little salt again, and thickened it with wet starch to make it taste salty and delicious. Remove and place carefully on a plate.
Then take the cooked "abalone" out of the pot, untie the gauze, and surround it in the middle of the plate.
Finally, put the pot on the fire, add the chicken broth to the original juice of the "abalone" and bring it to a boil again. Use wet starch to thicken the sauce, pour in the chicken oil and mix well, take it out of the pot, and pour it evenly on the "abalone".
A dish of abalone in thick soup that can be fake and real, and you're done!
"Chef Wen, is the dish ready? Young Master has already brought people to your table, and we are urging the dishes!" The servant who came in to meet him just now hurried to the kitchen.
"Rou'er, are you ready?" In front of Wen Shouzheng and Fang Dashi, all kinds of exquisite cold dishes have already been prepared for the banquet by the maids of Fan Mansion. dish.
"Come on!" With a long and gentle shout, four steaming plates of abalones, full of fragrance, dazzling colors, and most importantly fat and round, appeared in front of everyone!
"Hey! Chef Wen, I didn't expect the abalone in Zuixianlou to be so big! How much does it cost!" The servant's eyes widened and he swallowed hard!
"Hurry up and serve the food! This abalone must be eaten hot for the taste to be good!" Gentle and grinning urged.
"You guys, hurry up! Serve the food!" Hearing this, the servant waved his hand, and several maidservants who came back and forth to serve the food trotted to pass the food on again.
"Sister Rou'er, it's really you! That abalone is made of the real thing!" Fang Dashi saw that the crowd walked away, so he came over, wiped the water stains on his hands, and then wiped the sweat from his head. .
"Stone! Don't talk nonsense! That's abalone!" Wen Shouzheng hurriedly stopped Fang Dashi, and looked around alertly.
Wen Shouzheng had already experienced Fan Jian's cunning and toughness, and Wen Shouzheng finally came up with this idea. If he was exposed again, what would happen
"Oh!" Fang Dashi hurriedly covered his mouth, looked around in a panic, and he breathed out lightly when he saw that there was no difference.
"Father, I reserved some, you can try it and see how it tastes?" Seeing that the two of them were so nervous, Rou Rou took a small bowl from behind, and there were three pieces of "abalone" lying quietly in it.
"You girl! You actually learned it from me!" Wen Shouzheng's face was dark. Although the bowl contained abalone made from Bailing mushroom, the method of keeping vegetables is really what a master taught an apprentice!
"Well, the taste is good! The gelatin is thick, the saltiness is moderate, the soup is thick, and it is just right! This method of making abalone can be used in Zuixianlou!" Wen Shouzheng was satisfied with the meal, and his heart It's even more a smug idea.
"Father! What are you thinking! Look at your belly! If you eat again, you will really look like a pregnant woman!" He patted Wen Shouzheng's belly with a gentle smile.
"This girl, neither big nor small! I... I didn't grow up for you!" Wen Shouzheng blushed, faltering.
At this moment, in the main hall of Fan Mansion, Fan Jian was waiting for the food to be served with a smirk on his face.
