Ding Zhiqing said with surprise: "Brother, you are back."

Qiao Wen saw a piece of ash on her face, pointed at the same position on her face, and smiled and said, "Let's wipe your face here."

"Ah?" Ding Zhiqing opened her mouth slightly, and she felt embarrassed to reach out and touch her face. Then she took out a handkerchief and wiped it on her face a few times.

Then, she raised her face and asked, "Is there any?"

Qiao Wen shook his head with a smile.

Ding Zhiqing said anxiously: "Brother, go and see if it is the MSG you mentioned."

Qiao Wen followed Ding Zhiqing to the kitchen and saw Ding Defu and the butler Ding Zhong staring at a casserole. The butler Ding kept flipping in the pot with a wooden shovel.

"Dad, Brother Qiao is back." Ding Zhiqing shouted.

When Ding Defu saw Qiao Wen, he said nervously: "Mr. Qiao, come and see, is that true?"

Qiao Wen came to the stove and looked at the yellowing things in the casserole. He felt a little damp. He said, "It's still a little short of the heat, but it's too late. Remove the heat and use the residual heat of the stove. Mr. Ding, thank you for your hard work, and you still have to continue stirring."

When Mr. Ding saw Qiao Wen politely, he hurriedly said, "Mr. Qiao, I dare not call me Lao Ding." In front of his master Ding Defu, he did not dare to overestimate his identity.

Qiao Wen nodded with a smile and went to see the two baskets on the stove. One basket contained half a basket of dried mushrooms, and the other basket contained an open paper bag with a pile of dried shrimp skins.

There is no secret to cooking. Once cooking is launched, let alone experienced chefs, I am afraid that even ordinary housewives can study most of the skills of cooking after careful consideration.

If Qiaowen wants to make cooking the best, it must have its unique secret to leading the industry. The iron pot suitable for cooking is one aspect, and MSG.

In the Tang Dynasty, glutamic acid was produced using modern technology. There were several natural MSG isolated from animals and plants that could also be replaced.

Mainly include: mushroom shrimp skin powder, seaweed powder and silverfish meal.

What Qiao Wen teaches Ding Defu and others now is mushroom shrimp skin powder. As for seaweed powder and silverfish powder, he still needs to keep it confidential for the time being. Let’s see how Ding Defu and others have the character.

The main method of making mushroom shrimp skin powder is: first, mix the mushrooms and shrimp skins according to the ratio of 15 dried mushrooms and one or two dried shrimp skins per 15 dried mushrooms, wash them and dry them in the sun, or stir-fry them in a wok. The latter is better, but the heat should be controlled and not stir-fry them.

Secondly, grind the dried shrimp skin and shiitake mushrooms into powder, then sifted the powder and put it in a sealed container to store.

This is MSG mushrooms, which can be put into various soups and can also be used in the production of various stir-frying dishes and pickles. The dosage is added according to the amount of dishes, usually one small spoon. You can add more when making dumplings, buns, and meat pie fillings, which tastes very good.

Soon after, a pile of processed light yellow powder appeared in a light blue and white porcelain bowl.

Qiao Wen took out a little powder with a spoon, poured it on his fingers, put it in his mouth and tasted it.

Ding Defu and others stared at Qiao Wen nervously, waiting for his judgment result.

Qiao Wen smiled and nodded and said, "Well, it's this. Come on, you all try it."

Ding Defu learned from Qiao Wen's appearance and put the powder into his mouth. An extremely delicious smell strongly stimulated his brain through his taste buds.

"Well, yes, it's delicious, it's so delicious." Ding Defu first widened his eyes, then smashed his mouth and praised sincerely.

"I'll try it." Ding Zhiqing couldn't wait to pick up the spoon and taste it. She said in surprise: "Brother, you really have a solution."

After tasting it, Butler Ding said excitedly: "Master, just by this, you won't have to worry about the restaurant having no business."

Ding Defu is as keen as a businessman. He can now have a premonition of the glorious prospects of the restaurant and knows that he can turn over.

He is a shrewd man. After this painful lesson in transporting grain, he became a cautious man.

He knew the importance of confidentiality, so he took the initiative to clean up all the clues related to MSG in the kitchen.

Ding Defu said: "Only a few of us know about this matter, we can't let go of any rumors."

Then he said to Butler Ding: "Tell the cook to make a pot of mutton soup."

Everyone came to the atrium, and Qiao Wen began to tell Ding Defu and his daughter some basic skills in restaurant management. The father and daughter were very eye-opening. Ding Zhiqing took a pen and recorded everything Qiao Wen said.

Not long after, the cook prepared the mutton soup. Butler Ding was very careful and did not let the cook enter the atrium. He took the celadon soup bowl containing the mutton soup and brought it in himself.

Qiao Wen added a small amount of mushroom shrimp skin powder to the soup bowl. After stirring it evenly, he put a bowl on his own and tasted it. Then he added some mushroom shrimp skin powder to the soup bowl. After tasting it again, he said, "You all try it too."

Ding Zhiqing stepped forward and picked up the spoon. He first served a bowl for his father, and then served it for himself and Butler Ding. The three of them had tasted MSG just now, and were not as excited as before. However, when they tasted the broth with MSG added, the delicious taste still made them praise.

Next, Qiao Wen asked Ding Defu to introduce some situations in the Chang'an City business community.

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

The sun was falling, and Han San and Xiao Dalang, who had been searching for the west city for an afternoon, still did not see Qiao Wen, and returned to Dinger Lane in extreme disappointment.

As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the alley, I saw Huang Erniang holding Qiao Yu in her hand.

Huang Erniang was also disappointed that she had not seen Qiao Wen. Just as she was about to speak, Han San followed the way he discussed with Xiao Dalang on the way and said with a smile: "Huang Erniang, Xiaoyu, we have seen Qiao Wen."

After saying that, he kept winking at Huang Erniang.

Han San had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his glaring looked a little scary, but the message conveyed was clearer.

Huang Erniang understood Han San's meaning and did not speak.

Qiao Yu, who hadn't seen Qiao Wen for more than a day, had cried many times, and her eyes were swollen. She asked hurriedly: "Brother Sanlang, why didn't my brother come back?"

Han San took out a paper bag from his arms and said, "This is the osmanthus cake your brother bought for you. He heard that a new kind of special delicious osmanthus cake in Luoyang City was released, so he specially bought it for you, so that you can listen to Huang Erniang obediently at home and he will come back in a few days."

Although Qiao Yu was young and very sensible, she didn't believe Han San's words and said, "My brother wouldn't go out without telling Xiaoyu."

Xiao Dalang said, "Xiao, Xiaoyu, yes, it's true. You, your brother, said that the osmanthus cake is very delicious. He wants to buy more. He doesn't bring enough money, so he asked me to borrow some."

Xiao Dalang said so many things at once, and he was so tired that he was sweating all over.

Qiao Yu finally believed it a little. She stretched out her hand and took the osmanthus cake. After eating two bites, a smile appeared on her little face.
