Chapter 288 What is your relationship with Zhong Ling?
"Qiannan, let me introduce you to you. This is Zhong Ping, Sister Ping."
In the second floor of the restaurant, Pei Yuqin held the arm of a woman in a purple dress and introduced Chen Yu with a smile on her face.
The only disadvantage of a woman with an almond-eyed and willow-eyed face is that she has freckles on her face. Although her appearance is not as good as Pei Yuqin, she is also very beautiful.
Unlike Pei Yuqin's cold temperament, this person's whole body exudes a gentle scent of a small family, which makes people feel close to each other at a glance, or is born to be a businessman.
As Pei Yuqin said just now, she should be in her early forties, but she couldn't tell at all. She was only thirty-four or thirty-five years old.
Of course, Pei Yuqin looks younger in comparison. Although she is 31 years old, someone believes that she has just graduated from college.
This elegant room is not big, about ten square meters, and the design is antique, the seats and furniture are all very particular about the placement of old Qing Dynasty furniture, porcelain calligraphy and paintings, etc., and those who don’t know about it, thought they had brought the antique shop here.
Because it is facing north and south, even if it is rainy on the house, it is very bright without turning on the lights.
Chen Yu was obviously stunned when he saw this woman named Zhong Ping, but he immediately recovered. He stepped forward and reached out and shook Zhong Ping with generously, "Hello Sister Ping, I am Chen Yu, I am very happy to see you."
Zhong Ping teased Chen Yu, "No, gentle, elegant and bookish, and a handsome and talented person. Xiaoqin has a really good vision."
"Sister Ping, I wonder who Zhong Ling is your person?"
Chen Yu changed the subject directly.
Of course, Chen Yu also wanted to know that without it, Zhong Ping and Zhong Ling, the big star Chen Yu met in Dongjiang, did not say that they were carved out in the same mold, but they were also eighty-point similar.
"Ah, you actually know Xiao Ling?"
Pei Yuqin and Zhong Ping asked Chen Yu in unison.
Chen Yu smiled bitterly and told him about the story of meeting Zhong Ling at the Qingniuguan Antique Market a few months ago.
After hearing Chen Yu say it, Pei Yuqin's eyes looked at Chen Yu full of surprise. Her beautiful eyes looked at Chen Yu without blinking, as if she was about to find some secret on Shen Yu's face.
Chen Yu smiled bitterly again, "Sister Qin, why do you look at me like this?"
Pei Yuqin held his forehead and made a speechless expression, "This world is so small that it makes me think about it a hundred times and it will never be possible to associate you with the Li Tietou in Xiaoling's mouth?
"The big star Zhong Ling you mentioned is my good friend and sister Ping's half-sister. Both of them follow Aunt Zhong's surname."
Pei Yuqin's words solved Chen Yu's doubts.
After Pei Yuqin and Zhong Ping had a while whispering, Pei Yuqin handed the menu to Chen Yu, "You're hungry, order whatever you want to eat yourself."
The menu is gold-plated, called "Zhong's Private Vegetable". The overall production is very exquisite, like a work of art.
But there are not many dishes, only twenty dishes.
Each dish has high-definition color photos, and the salty, light, spicy and sweetness of each dish is also listed in detail. The orderers can see it at a glance without asking the waiter.
The so-called private dishes are private recipes handed down from ancient times. They are mostly secret recipes passed down from ancestors. In other words, you can’t eat this kind of dish in a restaurant on the street. You can only eat it in a specific deep courtyard.
But it’s not about all the dishes, but if there are two or three special dishes, you can say they are private restaurants.
The current private dishes are not as mysterious as the legendary. They can even be found in a corner or in a deep house with friends.
Or hide in a certain unit in a certain community. Now do you want to open a restaurant in the community? How can you open it upstairs and downstairs? It’s impossible to think about it.
Chen Yu ordered a cold-sauce vegetarian assorted meat, a charcoal-grilled lamb leg, and finally ordered a black chicken and wild ginseng soup for Pei Yuqin.
Pei Yuqin felt that it was not enough and ordered another Kung Pao chicken and a Mapo tofu.
Zhong Ping joked: "What a warm little man, Xiaoqin, you are so lucky. My boyfriend is so handsome and I know he feels sorry for others."
Pei Yuqin's cheeks were a little red, "Sister Ping, I can't finish eating, so I don't want that black chicken soup."
Zhong Ping waved her hand, "Apart from lamb legs, other dishes are small portions, and you won't be afraid of not being able to finish them." After that, she glanced at Chen Yu meaningfully and walked towards the kitchen.
It is impossible for the boss to take charge of private dishes, but the boss must participate in the whole process.
After two or three minutes of the kitchen range hood, the first hot dish came on, which was a plate of "Kung Pao Chicken Dice" ordered by Pei Yuqin.
However, it was not brought up by Zhong Ping himself, but the waitress in the hotel.
It is obvious that Zhong Ping doesn't want to be a light bulb for two people either.
I have to say that the chefs in this restaurant have very good skills, and the dishes look comfortable.
The chicken is bright red in color, and the peanuts are fried just right at the same time.
Chen Yu used hot water to rinse the chopsticks and handed them to Pei Yuqin, "Sister Qin, do you know the origin of this home-cooked dish?"
Pei Yuqin shook her head: "Isn't it just an ordinary home-cooked dish? Does it have a great origin?"
Chen Yu smiled and shook his head and said, "Sister Qin, this dish of Kung Pao Chicken is famous overseas, how can it be ordinary?"
Pei Yuqin looked puzzled, "Does there be a lot of talk about this dish?"
Chen Yu scooped a spoonful and put it on the small plate in front of Pei Yuqin, then looked exaggerated, "Of course, let's do it, sister Qin, please tell me first whether this Gong Bao chicken is Sichuan cuisine, Guizhou cuisine or Shandong cuisine?"
“Sichuan cuisine?”
Chen Yu nodded and shook his head again, "Let's eat the food first, let's talk about it later."
Pei Yuqin picked up a piece of chicken and tasted it. Her beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, "It's delicious! It's fresh and tender, not old, and it's slightly spicy and sweet."
After saying that, she picked up another peanut and put it in her mouth, "This one is also very fragrant."
"Qinnan, can you make this dish?" Pei Yuqin chewed in small mouth, and also scooped Chen Yu a spoonful of it and placed it in the porcelain dish in front of Shen Yu.
"Of course, this dish mainly requires selection of ingredients. If you want to make it fresh and delicious, you must choose fresh and high-quality chicken breast or chicken leg meat, preferably it is a fresh one.
"Peanuts are also very important. You must use newly dried peanuts that year. Aging will affect the taste.
"When the freshness of the chicken and the crispy aroma of peanuts are guaranteed, prepare chili peppers. The choice of chili pepper is very high. Chaotian pepper, Erjingtiao, and bell pepper, you can choose it yourself according to the different spicyness.
"Then prepare salt, sugar, chicken soup, water bean powder, long-dried cooking wine, onion, ginger, garlic, etc. in advance.
"The first step is to fry peanuts, the focus is on cold oil in cold pots, and you must not use hot oil. The second step is to use it..." (囧, book friends, I am afraid that you will say I am hydrological, so I won't write it in detail.)
Pei Yuqin held her cheeks and looked at Chen Yu talking nonsense with a doting face.
It's like a wife listening carefully to her husband's work.
How could she not know about Gong Bao Ji Ding?
An improved version of the fried chicken with Shandong cuisine sauce and Qian cuisine Hu spicy chicken with Chinese cuisine, a private dish from the home of a famous official in the Qing Dynasty.
Gong Bao is the crown prince’s Taibao. The crown prince’s Shaobao is commonly known as the crown prince’s teacher, and it is also the official name given to Ding Baozhen.
Pei Yuqin not only knows all the above, but she also has great experience in making this dish herself.
But my mother told her that men like to show off in front of women the most. If you want a man to like him more, you must be a good listener.
Besides, Pei Yuqin also likes to listen to Chen Yu speak very much.
