Chapter 422 Burning the Second Winter for a Monthly Pass(1/2)
When Chen Nian heard this answer, he even froze on the spot for three seconds.
"If you want to buy groceries in the morning, you have to go there when it's dark. I'm already old, and I can't sleep at night because of the snoring of those guys. How can I get up so early?
Moreover, there are many people going to buy vegetables in the morning. No matter how familiar I am with them or how good our relationship is, the vegetable seller cannot leave his stall to deliver food to me when he is busiest, right? You ask me to take it myself, but I can’t.
move."
Finally, when I heard Master Sun’s explanation, I felt it was very reasonable.
"So now that you're here, you can go buy groceries early in the morning. If I don't tell you what to do, you can just watch and buy it yourself. Do whatever you want, but it's best to have meat. If there's meat, they won't.
Pick." Sun Fuquan warned again, "You don't have to worry about the food money. When the time comes, let them go to the accounting room to keep accounts and pay them at the end of the month."
"Good master."
Suddenly he was delegated power again, which should have been a good thing.
But Chen Nian thought about it... wouldn't it be better if I didn't ask just now?
But this feeling of being trusted is still good.
Otherwise, no matter where the purchase is, it will be a bad business, and the profit will be huge, because you can make money from it, and quote more prices in a unified manner with the vegetable vendors, so that the extra money will flow into your own pocket.
If you were more sinister and tried to shoddy products, you could make even more money.
It’s just that there’s absolutely no need to do that for aging here.
No matter how much money you make, you can't take it back with you. Although the money you make here can be exchanged for cash, this is a dream. If the things in the dream can be brought back to reality at will, then Chen Nian would have made a fortune long ago.
, and open a banana spicy restaurant?
Bringing back an antique vase from ancient times is priceless.
The dishes they are going to make for lunch today are braised Erdong, white meat with pickled cabbage, and scrambled eggs with leeks.
When Chen Nian heard about these three dishes, his first reaction was that he had never heard of Shao Er Dong.
The second reaction is that pickled cabbage with white meat is not a Northeastern dish?
As for the fried eggs with leeks, it is a simple home-cooked dish.
On the way to buy groceries, Chen Nian asked his master directly what Shaoerdong was.
"The main thing of roasting Erdong is donggu and winter bamboo shoots. This is called Erdong. Jiezou is a vegetarian dish, but even though this dish is vegetarian, it still tastes quite good." Master Sun said.
Chen Nian nodded as he listened, but he still couldn't think of how to cook these two dishes.
After all, if he had to think of combining these two ingredients together, Chen Nian could only think of something as white as a vegetable dish like fried green beans with magnolia slices, and he couldn't imagine how it could be served with rice.
It's quite refreshing.
Although Chen Nian didn't know how to make this dish or how to serve it, he knew how to bargain at the vegetable market.
Later, Chen Haonan chopped it from Kowloon Bay to Tsim Sha Tsui, while Chen Nian chopped it from beginning to end in the vegetable market, like a murderous god.
From beginning to end, he didn't blink an eyelid.
So much so that when he and Mr. Sun came out, their eyes were dry and their hands were dry.
"Not bad, not bad. It has some of the demeanor of my youth. When I was young, I was almost the same as you. Later, those vegetable sellers were afraid of me and would give me the cheapest price every time without me asking." Master Sun photographed.
He patted Chen Nian on the shoulder and said appreciatively.
"Save money if you can. Buy things cheaply and eat well." Chen Nian said humbly.
But as they were talking, Chen Nian thought about Su Yunjin again.
"By the way, master, do you know Su Yunjin?"
Sun Fuquan couldn't help but paused when he heard the name, and then sighed: "I know you, how could I not know you? I have been here since the beginning of Jinwumen, how could I not know you?
Su Yunjin?"
"Then who is she? I saw her come to see Senior Brother yesterday, but I was afraid that there was some secret between them, so I didn't dare to ask." Chen Nian said, telling Master Sun that he couldn't tell Tang Dechun.
problematic.
Chen Nian pretended to be listening attentively and waited for the next words.
"Su Yunjin, she is the third master's adopted daughter."
This news is no less than a bombshell here in Chen Nian. If this bomb explodes, Chen Nian will also be blown to pieces.
Now he doesn't even understand the relationship between these people. Why does he feel so confused?
"Su Yunjin is the adopted daughter of Third Master, but after Luo Sheng betrayed his master, she also left..."
"This Luo Sheng was the second senior brother back then? What is the relationship between Su Yunjin and the senior brother? Did the three of them know each other before?" Chen Nian asked several questions in a row. He wanted to know so much now.
Sure enough, gossip is the driving force for human progress, and curiosity is the fuel for the progress of civilization.
"Yes, Luo Sheng was the second disciple of Jinwu Sect at the beginning. He was very talented in martial arts, but his character was not very good. The three of them had known each other since they were young, and they also entered Jinwu Sect at the same time. However, Tang Dechun and Luo Sheng were taken over by the third master.
For the sake of my disciple, Su Yunjin was recognized as my goddaughter."
After listening to it for a long time, there is indeed an unknown story in it!
"At that time, the eldest son and the second son treated Yun Jin like his own sister, and the third master and his wife treated Yun Jin exactly the same as their daughter. But later, from a period of time, Yun Jin and the second son got closer, and then later on, the third master and his wife treated Yun Jin just like their daughter.
At my grandfather's birthday party, on the day when the second son was about to betray his master, Su Yunjin also left with him after the second son left.
It’s just that these things happened relatively early, and no one would mention them, so except for the current boss, second brother, young master Shen Wen, third master and his wife, others don’t know much about it.”
Chen Nian heard this and thought to himself: "Okay, now there is one more person who knows."
But he definitely wouldn't say these things everywhere. After all, this is people's privacy. He is lucky to know it from Master Sun.
Not long after returning to the martial arts hall, the vegetable sellers brought the dishes over, and Chen Nian turned his attention back to cooking. The pickled cabbage and white meat dish was cooked by Wang Chuang in the forest on Changbai Mountain before Chen Nian.
I ate it in a hut.
I have to say, in the snowy mountains, with snow falling outside, the stove is lit at home, a pot of pickled cabbage and white meat is cooked, and a large pot of fragrant rice is served, not to mention how refreshing it is to eat, and you can get drunk while eating and drinking.
Drop a pound.
Although Chen Nian later did not put this dish on the menu of Honghong Restaurant, he still remembers the taste.
So in comparison, Chen Nian still looks forward to what Master Sun said about burning for two winters.
After all, I've never heard of it.
"Bake it, it's the freshest to eat in the winter season. I basically cook it three or four times a month. The boys all love it." Master Sun said, "You should process the bamboo shoots and donggu first.
Look back and see what I did."
Chen Nian immediately took action after hearing this. He found that although Master Sun trusted him just like the previous masters, one thing that was different was his teaching method.
Those masters let themselves practice and learn through practice, but Master Sun simply demonstrated there and then let himself see it, which was similar to the way he taught the land.
But this is not bad for aging. It is better to at least read it once and think about it yourself than to use your brain to think about it.
For example, Xiao Long Bao, Kung Pao Chicken, and Fish-flavored Shredded Pork can also be inferred based on the dishes you have eaten, and these relatively well-known food recipes are just those.
But there's nothing you can do about dishes like Shao Erdong, which you don't even know what they are just by hearing the name.
Of course, you still have to do the work like handling the ingredients yourself, and the master chef is only responsible for cooking.
"Donggu needs to cut off the roots, and then cut them in the middle; the winter bamboo shoots should be cut into three halves from left to right, and then cut in half with a diagonal knife from the middle." Master Sun explained how to handle these ingredients, and they were aged instantly.
Heartfelt understanding.
Since I had to cook for dozens of people, I soaked a pot of winter bamboo shoots and another pot of Donggu.
The quantities are huge.
After soaking for a while, Chen Nian began to wash it carefully. When the two ingredients were completely washed, Chen Nian began to modify the knife according to the methods mentioned by Master Sun before.
These cutting methods are very simple and basically do not require much knife skills, just having hands is enough.
"If winter bamboo shoots are fried directly without blanching, they will taste bitter and astringent. After blanching, the bitter taste will be gone. Besides, winter bamboo shoots are a seasonal dish. Remember to add some sugar when blanching, which can improve the taste.
To taste and increase the umami." Master Sun explained the principle to Chen Nian.
But in fact, Chen Nian knows more about this than Master Sun. Master Sun only knows that winter bamboo shoots will have a bitter taste if they are not blanched, but Chen Nian knows that it is because there is oxalic acid in it.
And although this food tastes delicious after being cooked, it is not suitable for people with weak gastrointestinal function to eat too much, because it contains a lot of vitamins, trace elements and minerals, and eating too much will cause gastrointestinal discomfort.
Chinese culture is extensive and profound, and winter bamboo shoots are also one of the commonly used dietary ingredients in ancient times, because it is also recorded in traditional Chinese medicine: bamboo shoots are sweet in taste, slightly bitter in some parts, and cold in nature.
"Famous Doctors" says that it "mainly quenches thirst, dilutes water channels, replenishes qi, and can last for a long time."
"Compendium of Materia Medica" says that it "benefits the nine orifices, unblocks the blood vessels, resolves phlegm and saliva, and eliminates food bloating." It is especially good at clearing away hot phlegm.
This was something I had seen before when Chen Nian couldn't sleep at night.
It's just that these things are not showing off because they are old. Anyway, I am here to learn how to cook, so there is no need to do these things.
Take out the fried winter bamboo shoots, drain them, put them on a plate and add some soy sauce to color them, and mix them evenly with your hands.
Regarding this part, Master Sun explained: "Because we have to put it in the frying pan and fry it, add some color and fry it to make it look good. Isn't the most important thing in cooking is to have a complete color, aroma and flavor? Although we are cooking a big pot of rice, who makes us the cooks?"
Hulong is not an option."
"Master, to be honest, I don't want to be a disciple of anyone. If you really are the kind of person who only has cooking skills but no cooking ethics, I will stay away from him." Chen Nian said while working.
