And I have worked hard for most of my life and only relied on the unique skills passed down from my family to become a one-star senior chef.
Moreover, the brine that I have produced over the past century also accounts for a large part of the credit for the rating.
This is really infuriating.
But the round-faced boss is also a well-informed person.
He was not jealous of Li Xiao either.
After all, once the gap between the two is too big.
In fact, it is difficult to feel jealous.
More of envy and adoration.
However, the feelings of admiration and envy did not last long.
The round-faced boss looked at the increasingly long queue and did not stay any longer.
He knew that Li Xiao had no ill intentions towards him.
His worries immediately disappeared, and he pushed the snacks on the table forward with a smile.
"It's rare to have a chance to meet a little brother who knows how to eat."
"These snacks are all for little brothers."
"I'm going to leave now if I'm still busy over there."
After saying that, he didn't show any politeness to Li Xiao, and returned to the back of the stall with a smile and continued selling his Qingyan pig's feet.
Look at the boss's back.
Li Xiao looked confused and had no idea what kind of medicine the boss was selling in his gourd.
But since they are not here to advertise to you, you don’t need to worry about it.
I took a look at the snacks given by the round-faced boss.
Braised eggs, salted peanuts.
It's not a valuable thing, but it is someone else's wish after all.
And it was free, so Li Xiao actually accepted it with a smile.
Use a bamboo skewer to insert a braised egg.
The eggs are very small, two or three times smaller than ordinary eggs.
It's only as big as the circle between your index finger and thumb.
Shaking the braised eggs on the bamboo stick, Li Xiao showed off with a smile.
"Handsome man, this is the braised egg given by the boss. Let me try it to see if it tastes good."
Studio.
"Disgusting, yet handsome and powerful, shameless!"
"Although the anchor is still a bit handsome, what's going on with this proud look?"
" o(╥﹏╥)o, my brother Xiao is originally a good-looking anchor. I say that I am handsome. Is there anything wrong with me?"
"The anchor is quite handsome, but what's the point of the male boss giving the anchor eggs?"
"It's so funny, it seems that the fat boss has something wrong with the anchor!"
······
Watching the banter in the live broadcast room.
The corner of Li Xiao's mouth twitched slightly, forget it, he didn't deserve it.
Alas, people's hearts are not ancient!
Ignoring the teasing in the live broadcast room, he bit into half of a braised egg.
The skin of the braised eggs is so soft that the sauce-colored egg whites will crack as soon as you apply force with your teeth.
Li Xiao was a little confused, the egg white was a little too soft.
Normally, the skin of hard-boiled eggs is stronger.
This is because the salt in the brine reacts chemically with the protein.
The longer you cook it, the firmer the structure of the egg whites will be.
The shorter the cooking time, the softer the egg whites will be.
If it were ordinary hard-boiled eggs, the heat would be just right.
But if it were a braised egg, the heat would be slightly insufficient.
After all, in such a short period of time, the flavor of the brine may not be able to penetrate into the eggs.
Originally, he was going to criticize the taste of the braised eggs after eating it.
Then the next second there was an expression of surprise on his face.
Because under the tender white egg white is a semi-liquid yolk.
The egg yolk will be undercooked, and the egg white will not be protected when you bite it.
The egg yolk slowly flowed out from inside.
The rich egg flavor immediately spreads on the tip of the tongue.
Li Xiao's expression became extremely wonderful.
This unexpected flow of heart, the egg yolk is really a surprise.
It turns out that it's not that the heat is not enough, but that it was handled this way.
Moreover, the soft and tender egg white taste and braised aroma are not compromised at all.
Li Xiao understood immediately.
This is the cold brew technique used by the boss.
The so-called cold brewing is to put the cooked food into room temperature or frozen brine.
Let the flavor of the brine penetrate into the food naturally.
This cooking method is usually used to keep food fresh and tender without aging due to overcooking.
I just didn't expect that the other party would actually use such cooking techniques to cook eggs.
“This braised egg is surprisingly delicious.”
"The egg white is very tender and tasty. The most important thing is that this is a runny braised egg."
As he spoke, he turned the braised eggs over and displayed them in front of the audience.
Studio.
"???How can braised eggs be runny?"
"Of course braised eggs can be delicious. Don't many restaurants in Sakura Country have this?"
“Luxin braised eggs yyds!”
"This braised egg looks so delicious at first glance, my mouth is watering all over the floor!"
·······
After finishing the remaining braised eggs in one bite, Li Xiao picked up a few salted peanuts.
The taste of salted peanuts is a bit unsatisfactory.
The peanut shell is very big, but the meat is not much, and even a little shriveled.
Apparently, the selection was not done carefully or the storage was improper, and something unexpected happened.
"The braised eggs just now are delicious, but the salted peanuts are a bit unsatisfactory."
After eating the free snacks.
Li Xiao continued to introduce the Qingyan pig's trotters to the audience.
"His pig's feet are also served with some of Guizhou's most commonly used dipping sauce."
As he spoke, Li Xiao raised the small plate next to him.
This dipping sauce is exactly the dipping sauce Li Xiao used when eating tofu balls yesterday.
However, the base of yesterday's dipping sauce was sour soup, while the dipping sauce in front of us is soy sauce.
And there are some more roasted sesame seeds and peanuts in it, which makes it smell more fragrant.
"But actually, I think the salty flavor of the pig's feet is quite strong. You can order it with or without the dipping sauce."
"But since the boss has paired it with such a small plate of dipping sauce, there must be a reason for it."
"I'm just going to try how the pig's feet taste with the dipping sauce."
Li Xiao stuffed the Qingyan pig's trotters dipped in dipping sauce into his mouth.
The entrance is indeed a bit salty.
But after taking a few more bites, I found that the sauce seeped into the pig's feet.
The longer it takes, the more fragrant it becomes, especially the soft tendons in the pig's feet.
Because its structure is relatively strong, it can be used when other parts are already flavored.
The soft tendons inside the pig's feet may seem a little less flavorful, but after being dipped in this sauce.
This slight deficiency was immediately made up for.
Eat the whole pig's feet while dipping it in the sauce.
Li Xiao couldn't help but extend his thumb:
“Although it’s a bit salty when eaten with sauce.”
"But the more you chew it, the more it tastes, and the more you chew it, the more flavor it has."
“The Qingyan pork trotters without dipping sauce would have scored 85 points.”
"Then the Qingyan pig's trotters dipped in sauce will get 90 points."
"As expected, it is a time-honored brand that has been passed down for 200 years. It is well worth a try."
"If you have a chance to come, you must come and try it for yourself."
Studio.
"No matter what you say, I can't go there. It's more than 400 kilometers away."
"It's only over 400 kilometers, and it can be reached by plane in one or two hours."
"The anchor is soft-spoken and has short hands to take advantage of others!"
"Attention all units, this is a paid promotion!"
"The young pork knuckles here are really good, really delicious. Every time I go there, I take two pounds of them home."
