Now that he has arrived in the kitchen, Xiangchuan breaks the jar.
What the hell! It’s more important to eat the white rice first!
Steaming white rice does not require extra equipment or materials. Water and a pot are enough, but...
Xiangchuan looked at the crowd of people outside the kitchen. She bet that if she really only made one pot of rice, she would probably not be able to eat even one rice by then.
So he quickly called his fellow employees over, and the four of them worked together with the cafeteria's kitchen AI to prepare pots of rice.
Boil water, rinse rice, pour water, repeat this three times. After Xianggawa reaches the level of the first knuckle of his finger, he puts it on the heating device.
Seeing her crisp movements, Manager Wu blinked in surprise and asked:
"Just...that's it? No need to add any seasoning? No other ingredients?"
Xiangchuan said helplessly:
"No, no, no, we're just making white rice. We don't have enough ingredients and seasonings right now, so we can't make anything else."
This is the truth, she wanted to make some braised rice, but condiments such as soy sauce and oyster sauce were in short supply, and she was too clever to make a meal without rice.
Manager Wu looked at the pots on the heating equipment with some suspicion, and wanted to open his mouth several times, but finally gave up.
Forget it, it’s just this little rice, there’s no loss even if it goes bad.
Obviously, he didn't think this would make a delicious meal.
However, at this time, Kagawa had already started thinking about some simple meals.
Although there is no soy sauce and oyster sauce, the range of options has been greatly reduced, but some simple home-cooked dishes can still be made.
She quickly reported a bunch of ingredients to Manager Wu.
Manager Wu, who was not very interested, immediately cheered up when he heard the ingredients she reported: Is this going to require some follow-up processing of the rice?!
Manager Wu worked vigorously and resolutely, and soon fresh vegetables, chicken and beef were delivered to the kitchen.
Steaming rice can keep a few people busy, but cooking, let alone cooking for a whole class of students, is obviously beyond the capabilities of the four members of the Tongue Club.
As a result, everyone in Grade 18 was pushed into the kitchen by the four members of the Tongue Club.
If you want to eat, then work! Gluttons!
Fortunately, after going through the field training and the "training" before the school anniversary, everyone in Class 18 of Senior High School was able to handle simple ingredients with ease.
Wash vegetables, cut meat, process chicken giblets...
Although the skills of everyone in Class 18 were much more mature than those of the Tongue Club, to other classes who didn't know why, it seemed like they were watching a magic show.
Mandy, Fu Chengkai and others enjoyed the stunning looks from other classes and felt happy in their hearts, but they still said Versailles:
"Oh, it's a pity that these chickens have been plucked. Otherwise, we can try to see if the chicken killing skills have deteriorated. And it is really a pity that there are no fish. I also want to shave the scales again..."
The female students who were handling the ingredients next to them heard this and rolled their eyes: Almost all the people in charge of killing fish were girls!
After handing over all the food processing work, Xiangchuan concentrated on seasoning and marinating.
Beef and chicken are marinated with onions, ginger and pepper, ready to be cooked at the end.
The first thing she has to deal with is the vegetables
Chop the garlic into pieces. Xiangchuan picks up the pot, skillfully pours the oil in, heats it, and after the oil is hot, quickly adds the garlic, washes it, and breaks off the green vegetables at the root.
The Fourth Production Escort is in autumn. At this time, there are many kinds of other vegetables, but only green vegetables are relatively small, not as abundant as spring and autumn.
The green vegetables delivered to the canteen were also common cabbage. Xiangchuan sighed in his heart: It would be great if there was lard. Stir-fried cabbage with lard is guaranteed to make a big bowl of rice.
After she demonstrated the cooking operation to the kitchen AI, she turned around to handle the soup.
Without seaweed, it would be a bit monotonous to make tomato and egg drop soup directly, so Xianggawa directly improved the gnocchi he had made before, reducing the flour, adding two more eggs, and the seasoning was slightly heavier.
If there is something with a strong taste, you will naturally need a lighter soup. She picked up some whole chickens and directed the kitchen AI to cut the chicken into small pieces, then put it into the soup pot, and threw in the sliced ginger and chopped chicken.
Green onions and shiitake mushrooms cleaned by squad leader Ludai began to stew the soup.
After the soup and vegetables are prepared, it’s time to prepare some dishes suitable for rice.
After having mushroom and chicken soup, fried chicken with mushrooms was eliminated from her list of options.
Teppanyaki beef is obviously a good choice. Although there is no soy sauce, there are fresh onions and peppers. Making a simple version can still satisfy the taste buds.
Autumn is the harvest season for vegetables. Xiangchuan looked at the fresh vegetables in front of him, swallowed his saliva, and instantly had an idea.
Cut the cucumber into thin slices and stir-fry it with the diced tomatoes. Seasoning only requires garlic and salt. Simply stir-fry it and it will be a sweet and sour side dish.
For another dish, Xiangchuan chose minced pork and eggplant. The minced meat was replaced with minced beef. She specially selected the fatter part to facilitate frying. Since there was no soy sauce, the seasoning was replaced with spicy powder. The eggplant was soaked in salt water.
Finally, heat oil in a pan, add garlic and minced meat, stir-fry until cooked, add chili powder and a few diced tomatoes, stir-fry out the juice, add eggplant, add salt and stir-fry for a while, then remove from the pan.
The two new dishes of fried cucumber and minced eggplant attracted the attention of the surrounding Class 8 members. They all exchanged glances and nodded tacitly.
After Xiangchuan finished cooking two dishes, she handed over the follow-up work to the kitchen AI. She picked up the ingredient list in the canteen and thought about what else she could make. After a while, she looked back and found that the two dishes beside her were empty!
There wasn't even a drop of oil left! She suddenly looked at the people in Class 8 who were handling the ingredients in an orderly manner in the kitchen. Everyone's cheeks were moving, including Ouyang Yating and the others. Xiangchuan turned to look at the others outside the kitchen.
Class members, they seemed to know what Xiangchuan wanted to ask. Hundreds of people in the front row nodded in unison, making the corners of Xiangchuan's mouth twitch.
I knew these guys wouldn't settle down.
Forget it, just think of it as some benefits for them to help!
With this interruption from Team 8, Xiangchuan was too lazy to come up with new things. After careful calculation, he already had three dishes and two soups, which were almost the same in terms of variety.
But in the end she added a tomato scrambled egg dish.
Kagawa: It’s hard for me to eat white rice, but how can I miss this absolutely perfect side dish?
[Beep——Steamer No. 1 is scheduled to end]
When the kitchen AI's voice sounded, Xiangchuan immediately rushed over, but there was someone faster than her, and that was Manager Wu.
He looked at the big round pot with fiery eyes, which made Xiangchuan reluctant to move forward.
However, although Mr. Wu was excited, he still did not forget the basic etiquette. If the chef Kagawa did not make any move, he would not overstep it.
Xiangchuan stood in front of the steamer, took a deep breath, and directed the kitchen AI to open the lid.
The steam mixed with the strong aroma of rice rushed towards the face, but it was immediately sucked away by the exhaust fan. Even so, it could not prevent the aroma of steamed rice from attracting the attention of the entire kitchen.
Looking at the white rice made with new rice in front of him, tears of excitement flowed into Kagawa's mouth.
She picked up a small bowl, took a small spoonful of it with a spoon, and then put it into her mouth with chopsticks.
When the familiar fragrance of rice filled his mouth, tears filled Kagawa's eyes.
