Chapter 300 Asking for a monthly pass like a child(1/2)
Entering the kitchen, all the tools here were neatly stacked, but Chen Nian was surprised to find that the tableware in Teacher Yu’s house were basically cute and adorable, for example, there was a chubby character printed on the edge of the plate.
There were plump strawberries, and on the side of the other plate was a round pineapple.
"Grandma, did you buy all these tableware yourself?" Chen Nian couldn't help but asked curiously.
"Yes, last year I went shopping and found these tablewares sold on the roadside and they were not expensive, so I bought a lot of them. How do you like them? Doesn't it look good?"
"It's beautiful, so cute." Chen Nian couldn't help but smile on his face. Even men can't help but smile when they see these cute things.
But chatting was chatting, and Chen Nian still didn't forget their mission. They came in to help each other, and looked at the strawberry next to him.
"Hongdou, why don't you go wash the strawberries, and I'll help grandma wash and cut the vegetables."
An Hongdou nodded after hearing this.
"Young man, my surname is He, and my name is He Hui. What's your name?"
Since Chen Nian was good at chatting, Grandma He also took the initiative to chat with Chen Nian.
"Grandma, my surname is Chen, and my name is Chen Nian."
"Oh, Car Company? There are two cars in your name. It seems that you are going to make a fortune in the future."
Age: "???"
"No grandma, my name is not Che Lian, my name is Chen Nian."
"Ah? Channing? Sorry, I'm hard of hearing. Sometimes I can hear clearly, sometimes not very clearly. But the name sounds a bit like a foreigner, and it does sound strangely foreign."
"No, it's Chen Nian." When Chen Nian heard that the other party made another mistake, he said every word clearly.
"Cheng Yan?"
"No, grandma, it's Cheng... No, it's not Cheng, it's Chen, Chen Nian, old wine, old vinegar."
"Orange sweet vinegar? Orange sweet wine? Fruity?" Grandma He asked doubtfully.
In the end, Chen Nian had no choice but to take out his mobile phone, type the name on his own phone, and then show it to the other party.
"Ah, it's Chen Nian. I didn't hear it clearly just now. I'm sorry, Xiao Chen."
"It's okay, grandma."
Listening to the conversation between the two, An Hongdou on the side couldn't stop laughing. The conversation between the two was so funny. Just when she almost burst out laughing while holding her waist, Grandma He turned to look at An Hongdou again: "
Little girl, what’s your name? Are you his girlfriend?”
As soon as these words came out, An Hongdou's face turned red: "Grandma, I am not his girlfriend, we are just good friends. My name is An Hongdou, An is the safe and sound An, and Hongdou is the Hongdou wrapped in Hongdou.
"
"Oh, An Hongdou, that's such a nice name."
This time Grandma He was able to name An Hongdou right in one go, which made Chen Nian a little curious: "Grandma, can you hear what she said clearly?"
I saw Grandma He turning her head and saying with a smile on her face: "Of course I can hear it. I can also hear what you said just now. I just wanted to tease you."
After that, he looked at the surprised expressions of the two and explained: "This is your first time visiting our home. You must feel that we are elders, so you will inevitably feel a little restrained. I will tease you and make you happy, and you will not be so restrained.
.”
When the two of them heard this, they couldn't help but feel in awe!
Even though Grandma He likes to eat strawberries, the dishes she uses are all cute and cute, and she has a young girl's heart, but after all, she is so much older than herself, and her way of dealing with people is much better than the two of her.
But after this experience, Chen Nian and An Hongdou really felt less restrained.
Finally Chen Nian started to help Grandma He handle the ingredients neatly, while An Hongdou was there carefully washing the strawberries.
Looking at Chen Nian's skillful movements, Grandma He asked curiously: "Xiao Chen, do you usually cook at home?"
"Yes, grandma." Chen Nian nodded.
An Hongdou also said at the right time: "Chen Nian's cooking is delicious, so I often go to his place to eat."
When Grandma He heard this, she looked at the two of them again, and she suddenly understood that the little girl must be embarrassed to say that, although the two of them probably didn't have that relationship yet, they probably had this intention in their hearts.
Otherwise, can I go to someone else’s house to eat every day?
Moreover, Chen Nian didn't say that he lived alone just now, so Xiao Chen's parents must have known about this little girl's visit.
This shows that the parents are quite optimistic about this little girl.
But this youthful look is really similar to when I was young.
Thinking like this, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Grandma He's heart: "Xiao Chen, how about this? Let's each cook a few dishes, and then go out and ask them to guess who made these dishes? What do you think?"
"
"This..." I don't know whether I should agree to it.
"Okay, let's make it this way. Today we are five people eating. Six dishes are enough. Each of us will cook three dishes. Now I have made two. I will make one more. You will do the rest. Kitchen
You can use whatever food you want in the kitchen and in the refrigerator. I’ll let the old man guess later and see if he knows which dishes I cooked.”
While talking, there was an incomprehensible smile on the corner of his mouth.
Grandma He cooked three dishes in total. The first dish was beef stew with potatoes, which is still simmering on the pot. The second dish was stir-fried vegetables, and the third dish was soup.
After the three dishes were ready, Grandma He put them on a plate and put a cover on top to keep them warm.
"Grandma He, did you buy this at night? I also have one at home that my mother bought."
"Yeah, the things on there are quite cheap. Sometimes I watch the live broadcast. I don't dare to buy the expensive things in the live broadcast room, but there is no problem in buying those for one yuan. Look at the jade stone next to me.
I bought the rolling pin for just one yuan."
Chen Nian was shocked again this time. He didn't expect that Grandma He would not only buy things on the e-commerce platform, but also buy things in the live broadcast room.
Grandma He said with some pride: "Now I am shopping for babies, and there are trees planted there, and I can get a box of fruit almost every week."
"Haha, my mother is like that too."
"Yes, that's what a woman who knows how to live her life is like."
While joking, Chen Nian also started cooking by himself. Although it was at someone else's house, and the gas stove in such a house was certainly not as hot as a restaurant, a qualified chef would definitely not be restricted by such conditions.
.
After looking at the spices in the kitchen and the ingredients in the refrigerator, Chen Nian thought of what Grandma He wanted to do, and couldn't help but ask her: "Grandma He, what do you usually cook?"
Just make some dishes that Grandma He would usually cook, and then present them to others to guess. Otherwise, you can make a dish of Mapo Tofu yourself, which is definitely not what Grandma He is good at.
"Me, I usually make soy sauce tofu and stir-fry shrimps to supplement my husband's nutrition, but today I plan to make fish-flavored shredded pork."
Since this is a meal at someone else's home, it is not suitable for making complicated and time-consuming dishes. It is best to make some quick dishes.
Fortunately, the dishes Grandma He mentioned were not too difficult. After looking at the available ingredients, Chen Nian quickly determined the three dishes he wanted to make.
The first is stir-fried shrimps. This dish can be said to be very simple to make, but even if it is simple, not everyone can make it well. It is like the tone of a novel is invincible text plus spiritual energy recovery plus monster fighting and upgrade.
But some people can't even sign a contract after writing it, and some people can earn millions a month after writing it.
The aged ones are naturally different. When cooking, the shrimps, celery and diced carrots are like holding hands in the pot and dancing happily together, gradually jumping to the strong point, and their colors also change.
Following the changes, various aged seasonings were added, and soon this stir-fried shrimp dish was ready.
As usual, Grandma He put this dish in the heat preservation cover.
Then Chen Nian started cutting meat and vegetables to prepare the second dish. He was going to make fish-flavored shredded pork. This dish of fish-flavored shredded pork is also very popular. Although it is Sichuan cuisine, it is also available in places outside Sichuan.
It's very popular, but the practices vary from place to place.
Although this dish is not yet on the menu of Honghong Restaurant, there is definitely no problem in making it now, it just depends on your proficiency.
However, compared to the next dish, if you want to make fish-flavored shredded pork delicious, it still takes a little more effort. After all, the meat needs to be marinated for a while.
After adding the noodles and the required seasonings, set the meat aside for marinating, set all the ingredients aside for later use, and cut the tofu after aging.
The cooking process of soy sauce tofu is also very simple. As the name suggests, the main ingredients are soy sauce and tofu. And if it is made properly, this dish will have a strong sauce aroma and a slightly deeper color. That is because the gravy is thickened.
On top of the tofu.
With one bite, you can taste the softness and tenderness of the tofu and the rich flavor of the sauce. It is also a great choice to pair with white rice.
This dish is also not on the menu of Honghong Restaurant, but it has been served at the original Chen Mapo Restaurant, and this dish can be regarded as one of its signature dishes.
After all, Chen Mapo Restaurant is most famous for its tofu, such as Mapo tofu, soy sauce tofu, bear paw tofu, etc. In addition, the price is not expensive, so it is very popular among customers.
After the soy sauce tofu is out of the pot, it is aged before making the fish-flavored shredded pork. The most important thing for this fish-flavored shredded pork is the sweet and sour sauce and thickening.
If these two steps are done well, it will be as if you have done at least all the mock papers within the possible range of the teacher's questions, previous years' papers, class exercises and some famous teachers' questions before the end of the term.
If it's the same thing three times or more, it's as stable as an old dog.
Of course, those who can do these two steps well will not fail in other steps.
Before starting, Chen Nian first mixed a bowl of sauce. The ratio of sugar and vinegar is basically the same no matter what the taste is. Then he added a little soy sauce, a little MSG, and chopped onions, ginger, and garlic.
And of course the most important thing is starch.
It is best to put this part of the onion, ginger, and garlic in advance, because this can further stimulate the flavor of the onion, ginger, and garlic, while the other part of the onion, ginger, and garlic will be used for stir-frying later. The combination of the two
Only then can you make a delicious plate of fish-flavored shredded pork.
