"Hey, do you have any plans for tomorrow? Are you going to go out for fun or do you want to go to your shop?
If you want to go out for fun, just take me with you, I'm really bored at home alone," Han Che asked them while swiping at the seafood products.
Yan Chen said, "The sun outside is already shining on people who can't open their eyes, so you still want to come in and act like a 10,000-watt light bulb?"
Han Che choked, "Tsk, I've long been used to the way you two behave like shit every day, and I'm immune to it!"
Besides, the wattage of my light bulb is very small, and you two are so crazy. What I am not embarrassed about is other people’s temperament. How can it affect you? Let alone catch your eyes!"
Yan Chen took a breath and said, "Ah, that's right. As long as we don't feel embarrassed, it will be others who are embarrassed. Okay, if you want to come together, let's do it!"
But first of all, I have to say, we are not going for fun tomorrow, we first need to go to the shop, and then we will look around to see if there are any suitable houses."
"Are you going to buy a house again?" Han Che suddenly became interested.
Xiang Jin said, "Uncle Zheng Gang and the others are still too far away to live here. It's okay to live here temporarily while they are renovating the shop."
But once this shop opens, it closes relatively late at night, so it will be a little inconvenient to come back here, so we want to look there to see if there is a suitable house for them to rent or...
Buy it."
Han Che nodded, "That's true. Okay, I'll join you tomorrow. I'm quite familiar with it. Last time, my second uncle and I also looked at houses there. There are several residential areas.
Yes, I will take you there when the time comes, but it’s a pity that there aren’t the shops we want there, so we didn’t buy a house there.”
"Yeah, okay!" Xiang Jin responded.
"Hey, is it so rich?" At about seven o'clock, Xiang Jin and his uncle had just put their food on the table, and Han Che and his second uncle also arrived. Looking at the seven or eight delicious dishes on the table, Han Che and his second uncle said
He couldn't help shouting.
Xiang Jin was putting the dipping saucer on the plate. Hearing his voice, he greeted him first and then smiled and said, "Actually, it's not that rich. This dish is the same as this dish. It's just that our plate is small, so
We divided it into two plates, and we just made a few dishes at random, all with home-cooked tastes."
"Wash your hands quickly, wash your hands quickly, I'm waiting for you to start eating," Han Che pushed his second uncle and urged him to wash his hands in the kitchen.
Xiang Jin's dining table is a rectangular marble dining table, so when they were seated, Xiang Jin and Yan Chen sat on one side, while Han Che and his second uncle sat on the other side opposite them.
Because there were no outsiders, and Xiang Jin and his family didn't have drinks at home, everyone didn't have to be polite after sitting down, and just picked up their chopsticks and started.
Han Che was the first to pick up a steamed scallop with garlic vermicelli from the plate in front of him and tasted it. Then he had a look of surprise on his face, "Yeah, delicious, delicious!" Then he picked up a second one.
.
Xiang Jin also put one into Yan Chen's bowl, "You try it?!"
Yan Chen raised the corners of his mouth slightly, looking at her with smiles in his eyes, "Yeah!"
After Xiang Jin gnawed on a piece of ribs, he took a crab to peel.
After Han Che and his second uncle tasted a few dishes, he gave Jin a thumbs up, "I've always heard that you cook delicious food, but I didn't expect that your cooking skills are so good."
Xiang Jin waved his hand, "Actually, in terms of cooking skills, my cooking skills are really average. I can't keep up with those master chefs. The main thing is that I have an advantage, but my memory is not bad. I think about 90% of the recipes I have read."
Even when I was fifteen, I can remember the ingredients and cooking steps. Even if it’s a dish I’ve never cooked before, I can make it very well according to the recipe.”
Han Che and his second uncle nodded and gave her a thumbs up again, "You are really talented in catering."
Xiang Jin said, "The main reason is that I like to eat, and I also like to study some delicious food, but it is only okay once in a while. If I am asked to stand in front of the stove every day to do this, I won't like it.
I still like to do the kind of work that involves less oil and smoke."
Han Che and his second uncle laughed heartily, "You are really sincere, girl."
Xiang Jin said, "Well, don't you have to be honest as a human being?
Besides, if my talent in this area is really too high, then you guys who own Chinese restaurants won’t be jealous of me to death?
I can't resist this jealousy and resentment. We should just open our hot pot restaurant and braised pork and vegetable restaurant obediently, and we won't compete with you for profits, right?" asked her the last question.
It was proposed to Yan Chen.
"Yeah!" Yan Chen smiled at her, and then handed her a shrimp that had been peeled and dipped in dipping sauce.
Xiang Jin reached out to take it and ate it, then blinked twice and felt it with his mouth, "It seems that the sauce is a bit salty."
"Is it salty?!" Yan Chen frowned slightly.
Xiang Jin nodded, "Yeah, a little bit."
Yan Chen said, "Maybe I put too much salt in it."
"Ah?" Xiang Jin immediately said with an annoyed look on his face, "I forgot to tell you, our shrimp was pickled when we bought it at noon. It already has a salty taste. Now you
If you dip it with this dipping sauce, how can it not be salty?"
Yan Chen nodded as soon as he thought about it, "What you said makes sense, then the shrimps in the back will not be dipped in the dipping sauce."
Xiang Jin put the picked crab meat and crab roe into his bowl, and Yan Chen said, "You eat it yourself, I will peel it myself later."
Xiang Jin said, "I don't eat crabs, so I'll peel them for you!"
Yan Chen was stunned for a moment, and then he understood.
Han Che said, "You don't eat crabs?"
Xiang Jin shook his head, "I won't eat that."
Han Che said, "Then if you don't eat it, I'll eat one more later."
Xiang Jin nodded, "Eat it, it will taste good if it is dipped in ginger vinegar. Crabs must be dipped in vinegar to make them taste better."
Han Che said, "You've never eaten it before. How do you know that eating crabs only tastes delicious if it's dipped in vinegar?"
Xiang Jin said, "Who said I haven't eaten it? I mean I don't eat it, but it doesn't mean I haven't eaten it, right?
Even if I have never eaten it, it is written in other books that vinegar is an indispensable seasoning when eating crabs. It is written this way not only in one book, but also in many books. Since many people have
If we hold such a unanimous view, it can be seen that vinegar is the best condiment for eating crabs!"
"Eh?!" Han Che was left speechless again by her rebuttal.
Xiang Jin saw that Yan Chen really liked eating crabs, so he took another one to peel, and at the same time asked him, "Is this crab roe okay?"
Yan Chen nodded, "Well, it tastes delicious!"
Xiang Jin said, "I think so. The book says that orange-red and dark yellow, clean and impurity-free crab roe is the best. When I peeled the crab open just now, I found that the crab roe inside is orange-red, so
I guess the crab tastes pretty good."
"This crab is delicious, but the quantity is too small. When you break it open, it's full of shells and these big claws," Han Che said after eating a crab.
Xiang Jin said, "There is meat in those pliers!"
Han Che said, "It's hard to do, so don't let me do it!"
Xiang Jin directly handed him a pair of kitchen scissors in front of him, "Can you cut off the joints at both ends of the pliers, then use this toothpick to pick out the meat like this, and then you can eat it?"
Han Che looked at it and said, "It's so troublesome."
Yan Chen said, "You are so wasteful!"
Han Che looked at the pile in front of Xiang Jin and said, "Your Xiang Jin is wasting money. You see, she hasn't even cleaned it up."
Xiang Jin looked at the pile of shells in front of him and said, "Those are the gills and stomach of crabs. They are inedible. What, you ate them?"
"Ah? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Han Che's expression suddenly changed, as if he had eaten a fly.
Xiang Jin said, "I thought you knew?"
Han Che said, "You know what? I've only eaten shrimps and fish before. How have I ever eaten crabs?" After saying that, he ran to the bathroom.
But he lay on the toilet and vomited for a long time without vomiting. In the end, he had to wash his hands and return to his seat.
Xiang Jin asked him, "Spit it out?!"
Han Che shook his head, "No!"
Yan Chen complained with a look of disgust, "I don't know how to eat and I don't know how to ask. Who can blame me?"
Han Che glared at him and said, "Stop making sarcastic remarks there. If Xiang Jin hadn't peeled it off for you and eaten it, you might have been like me!"
Yan Chen said, "For unfamiliar foods, if I don't know how to eat them, I basically won't eat them."
Han Che choked, and then he had no choice but to pick up the scissors and cut off the crab's claws to get the crab meat as Xiang Jin just said to end the topic.
Han Che and his second uncle didn't care about the quarrels between the three young men. He was completely responsible for eating, and occasionally asked Xiang Jin a few questions.
It’s about how this dish is made, how that dish is made, the control of temperature and heat, the stir-frying time, how to handle the ingredients, and what needs to be paid attention to.
, and so on and so on.
In short, most of what he said revolved around the cooking methods of dishes, especially the cooking methods of some seafood.
When he came to Shanghai, he found that people here still like to eat seafood. When he was back home, he basically had no access to seafood, mostly river fresh food.
But when you come here, you still have to take care of the local tastes, but their restaurants focus on Sichuan and Hunan flavors, so they will still use this flavor in the future. This is the soul of their restaurants.
Therefore, they must not only take into account the people here's love for seafood products, but not lose the authentic taste of their restaurant, then they must create a unique taste.
Xiang Jin also told him everything seriously without hesitation, and said to him, "We are a Chinese restaurant, so the most important thing is to use the livestock ingredients from our mainland, like that
You don’t need to deal with so many seafood products. Five or six items are enough. Just cook these five or six dishes well. There is no need to cook many and many dishes. After all, we are not running a seafood food stall.
