It seemed that the recognition of her ancestors did not affect Lin Zhu. During the few days that General Chang was in Wangcun, she used different parts of the cow in different ways to make suitable dishes every day, giving General Chang a satisfying meal.
A feast for the eyes.
For example, beef neck meat, because it has both fat and lean meat, is dry in texture, and has messy textures, is made into stuffing, and is very suitable for making beef buns, dumplings, or beef balls. Not only General Chang ate it, but he was full of praise.
, Fu Dou'er, who followed later, will also look forward to the beef buns for breakfast every day.
There are also dishes where shoulder meat is stewed and grilled; soups made with breast meat that is thicker in fiber and covered with fat; there are also sauced beef made with shank meat; braised beef brisket; and various stir-fried dishes made with rump meat.
.
Of course, the inner ridge and the outer ridge are the two most suitable places for grilling. Lin Zhu also carefully prepared them and invited General Chang to taste them.
Lin Zhu did not make sirloin or filet mignon according to the Western food method in his previous life. After all, there were no suitable auxiliary materials at the moment, so he always used an iron pan to fry and grill, imitating the teppanyaki method in his previous life, and working with the people in the kitchen.
Experiment to find out what tastes best.
Especially the tenderest part of the meat, the inner spine. After tasting Lin Zhu's favorite medium-rare to medium-rare, General Chang also admired this level of meat the most. Whenever it was cooked, the tender and juicy texture made him almost
Can't stop.
"Girl Zhu, are you still going to give this beef to that kid Mu Si?" Although Lin Zhu had signed a contract with Mu Yue Trading Company before, it was not confirmed at that time that the beef he cultivated was of such high quality. No matter what it was made of
The dishes are much more delicious than those made with ordinary beef. If the original contract was still followed, Lin Zhu would suffer a lot in terms of price. That's why General Chang asked this question.
"Well, it's hard to go back on the contract once it's been made, but the grade of the beef still needs to be determined and cannot be confused with ordinary beef. I believe that Director Lu will agree to this." Lin Zhu nodded.
Although Lin Zhu's ranch is not unique, it is still quite rare. Judging from the current situation, the development prospects are very good, which will of course attract others to follow suit.
Maybe, within three or two years, many people will try her large-scale breeding model. If the beef produced by Linzhu Ranch is just an ordinary variety, it will definitely be a big hit.
However, if there is space to grow grass, Linzhu's beef is destined to be different. In order to differentiate from ordinary beef, you must make preparations in advance to determine the grade of beef.
"Well, your idea is very good." I didn't expect that Lin Zhu could think so long-term at such a young age, and General Chang was very confident about Lin Zhu's work.
In this way, Lin Zhu's affairs in Wangcun came to an end. So he took Fu Dou'er and returned to the capital with General Chang.
As they got closer, it became even more difficult for Mu Qiyue to see Lin Zhu. After all, he couldn't risk going in and out of the general's mansion all the time, so now was not a good time to reveal their relationship.
Even on business matters, it was Feng Yuanbo who came forward to negotiate with Lu Mingtao on Lin Zhu's side. With the relationship between Mu Qiyue and Lin Zhu, things naturally went smoothly. In addition, the two of them knew each other. It didn't take long.
The contract was re-written.
"Steward Feng is really beyond my expectation. I didn't expect that there are crouching tigers and hidden dragons in Miss Lin's house." I thought Feng Yuanbo was just a housekeeper. He should not be familiar with this business matter.
Unexpectedly, his performance when talking about business was really shocking. In Lu Mingtao's opinion, Feng Yuanbo's skills were no worse than his own. He was not only steady but also shrewd. Although he did not take advantage of him at all, Lu Mingtao could not help but
I won’t re-examine the people around Lin Zhu.
"Master Lu is too polite. I'm just the girl's housekeeper, and I do everything as you're told." Even Lin Zhu had never asked about Feng Yuanbo's past, but Lin Zhu knew that he was a man with stories. As long as he was loyal to
You and others can turn a blind eye.
However, Feng Yuanbo was grateful to Lin Zhu for saving their family when he was at his lowest point and not letting his wife and children separate, so he had already sworn to be loyal to Lin Zhu for the rest of his life.
Both of them are smart people, and they understand each other tacitly about what happens during business discussions.
Zuixianlou suddenly announced that it would hold a food appreciation party and sincerely invited major restaurants to participate. It also stated that the people invited to taste the food would definitely be the most famous and fair gourmets in the capital.
This news immediately made the capital excited. It had not been such an exciting thing for a long time, so the appreciation meeting was simply another way of saying Dou Chu.
All the famous restaurants in the capital can't avoid being mentioned by Zuixianlou. If any restaurant doesn't send a chef, doesn't it mean that they are afraid of Zuixianlou? Once this kind of reputation spreads,
How many people are willing to come to their restaurant for dinner?
So as soon as the news about Zuixian Tower was announced, restaurants immediately responded and said they would definitely send people to attend.
This appreciation party attracted many famous and status people. Zuixian Tower is a property under the name of Prince Qi Mu Qingqi, so naturally some dignitaries will come to support it.
Seeing that it is attracting more and more people, people in the capital are also talking about which restaurant will stand out, and it is very lively.
Ten days before the appreciation meeting, the emperor's decree made people even more excited.
The emperor sent someone to announce that the best dishes from this food appreciation event will be presented to the emperor's table. If the emperor is satisfied, they will be included in the royal cookbook.
We are all ordinary people, how many of us can encounter something like this that can bring glory to our ancestors? Every restaurant owner and chef are all trying their best to come up with the best dish.
Some people even made bets on which restaurant would win the honor in the end.
Each restaurant spared no effort to show off its own special skills, and used its own specialties to entertain the guests before the food appreciation party began.
Of course, many of them will go to several big restaurants, and some of them will share their experiences of each tasting for everyone's reference.
All kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas are constantly pouring into the capital, and are supplied to major restaurants. Many people are also keeping an eye on the purchase status of Zuixianlou.
Look at what ingredients they have put in, and use this to guess what type of dishes Zuixianlou will introduce at the appreciation meeting.
"Isn't it just a piece of beef? It actually made Xiaosi the whole city." The emperor was sitting in the palace of Concubine Lan, while tasting the dishes made from the beef sent by Lin Zhu, while discussing with Concubine Lan.
"The Fourth Young Master's mind is really admirable. In this way, the reputation of Zuixian Tower will definitely be improved to a higher level." Concubine Lan naturally saw the intention.
"He is smart, but your niece's brain is even better." The emperor paused and said, "No matter what happened to her in Zhuangzi, she can send it to the palace. With the reputation of being an imperial concubine, what else is there?
I can’t sell it.”
Concubine Lan couldn't help but smile when she heard what the emperor said. No matter what Lin Zhu sent in, the emperor would come and taste it, and then say a few jealous words.
But she knew in her heart that relying on what Lin Zhu sold to Muyue Trading Company had made the emperor's private treasury fatter. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation.
