Grilled ribs with green onions?
Shen Guofu had it when he was running business in Shanghai in the early years. It tasted great, especially the soup and the green onions. It was a must-have whether it was mixed with rice or noodles.
To be honest, when Yan Lin said the five million business deal, he didn't feel it at all.
We, Lao Shen, are not short of money either. As long as our son-in-law needs it, let alone five million, fifty million won’t be an issue.
But when it comes to the grilled ribs with green onions, Shen Guofu's greedy mind is immediately drawn out, and the days when he walked around Shanghai doing business also come to mind.
"Let's not talk about business matters for now. Since Mr. Yan ordered grilled pork ribs with green onions, let me Xiaoxu try it and see if he can get Mr. Yan's attention."
It doesn't matter whether it's business or not, but since you want to test my son-in-law's cooking skills, I'm sorry, I will never allow anyone to say that his skills are not good.
Seeing Shen Guofu's confident look, Yan Lin looked forward to today's lunch even more.
Everyone came to the private room, and after sitting down, Shu Yun asked the waiter to pour tea for everyone, while she walked quickly to the second floor on high heels.
"Boss, boss, come out quickly, there is big business!"
Shen Guofu may not care about a five-million-dollar business, but Shu Yun, as the store general manager, cannot.
Five million, even if it is just a simple top-up, the store's sales will increase dramatically.
And judging from what Mr. Yan means, it seems that it is not as simple as recharging.
Maybe this big boss from Shanghai can introduce some high-end customers to the store.
Lin Xugang had just cooked a portion of mutton stir-fried with green onions, and when he saw Shu Yun calling him at the kitchen door, he picked up his apron, wiped his hands, and strode out.
"What's wrong? Didn't the guests invited by my father-in-law come?"
"I'm here, not only I'm here, but I'm also asking to eat the fried pork chops you made..."
Shu Yun was a little excited and told what happened after Yan Lin came in, and then said with an excited expression:
"Five million, boss, you have to find a way to make the grilled onion steaks that Mr. Yan wants to eat. You must not miss this business."
Since its opening, the store has had millions of recharges.
But they are all Mr. Shen and his relatives and friends. For example, Mr. Shen himself contributed 5 million as entertainment expenses for the Shen Group, Mr. Chen contributed 1 million as funds for her personal weight gain, and almost everyone else.
It’s one or two million.
There is no record of ordinary customers recharging millions.
Now, suddenly a five million business deal came down, and Shu Yun, a beauty who is used to seeing big scenes, couldn't help but be a little excited.
"Grilled ribs with green onions..."
Lin Xu rummaged through the points mall for a long time and finally pulled out this dish.
The price of the Excellent Grade Green Onion Grilled Rib is the same as the Fried Pork Chop, which is also 500,000 points. It also comes with a skill task. If you fail to complete it, you will be downgraded.
Since it is related to a business of 5 million, let’s redeem it.
In terms of points alone, the tenfold return rate is worth investing in.
Even if you don’t introduce the business in the end, you should still do it. After all, she bought a gold chain for Dundun, so she should be thanked.
"Consume points to obtain the excellent cooking skills of Grilled Onion Ribs, and trigger the skill task: Ask the host to win the heartfelt praise of ten people in Shanghai for the grilled Onion Ribs dish within 24 hours, otherwise the Excellent Grilled Onion Ribs
Large platoon skills will be downgraded to excellent skills."
Won the heartfelt praise of Shanghai people?
This is more difficult than fried pork chop. For fried pork chop, you only need to change the dining plans of six customers, which adds up to ten people, and they have to be from Shanghai...
Lin Xu had the feeling that the system was deliberately trying to make things difficult for me, Fat Tiger.
But now that the task has been triggered, let’s start making it.
He said to Shu Yun:
"I'm going to start frying the pork chops, and after I'm done frying, I'll make grilled pork chops with green onions. As for whether I can satisfy the boss... I can only do my best."
"You can do it, boss, hurry up and do it. I'll go up and ask Mr. Shen how to adjust the menu."
Since one portion of fried pork chop is served per person, other dishes have to be adjusted, and the original dining plan is suddenly disrupted.
When Shu Yun went upstairs, Lin Xu also returned to the kitchen.
Bring all the marinated pork chops over, replace them with a large oil pan, and replace the three-piece set of flour, egg liquid, and bread crumbs used before with a basin to hold them.
After everything was ready, he started frying the pork chops with Zhu Yong's help.
"I never thought that a big boss with a business worth hundreds of millions would like fried pork chops. Fortunately, you do, otherwise we would have to go to Dicos or KFC to find a chef to save us."
While Zhu Yong was dripping, he took a tong and quickly turned over the pork chops that had been shaped in the oil pan. At the same time, he punched out the bread crumbs floating in the oil pan and put them into a leaky bowl to control the oil.
Lin Xu asked curiously after seeing it:
"Is it useful to keep those bread crumbs?"
"Lu Lu likes to eat fried things like this. I plan to spread them into pancakes and let her eat them for dinner."
Tsk tsk tsk, what a good man.
However, these bread crumbs are full of fat. If you eat too much, you will easily gain weight, right?
Cut the fried pork chop into strips two to three centimeters wide and put it on a plate. Add a small dish of spicy soy sauce and you can serve the fried pork chop to the guests.
After the pork chops are fried, there are still five or six marinated pork chops left in the basin, which can be used to make grilled pork chops with green onions.
In fact, the name Grilled Scallion Ribs is not quite accurate. It should be called Scallion Ribs, because the preparation of this dish is exactly the "?" technique in Chinese cooking.
The so-called? is a cooking method that involves frying first and then stewing with a small amount of soup.
Dried prawns, garlic, small yellow croaker and other dishes in Shandong cuisine all use this technique.
Since we are going to make green onions now, it is natural that the participation of green onions is indispensable.
In China, when it comes to eating onions, everyone will think of the land of Qilu.
Not only are the green onions grown there second to none in the country, but they are also very good at eating green onions. Local children even mistake the green onions for sugar cane and eat them.
However, at the terminal station of the Yangtze River hundreds of kilometers away from Shandong, people in Shanghai are also very wild about eating green onions.
Yangchun noodles, scallion noodles, scallion bibimbap, scallion pancakes...a series of Shanghai delicacies are inseparable from the garnish of onions, and unlike Shandong, Shanghainese's favorite is scallions.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Spring onions have a low spiciness and strong aroma. No matter what dish you are cooking, it is right to add some spring onions.
Lin Xu picked up half a basket of peeled and washed green onions from the vegetable washing area. These green onions weighed about three or four kilograms, which was enough for half a day of Linji Cuisine.
But the half basket of green onions is only enough to make a few slices of green onion grilled ribs.
If there were two more slices of pork chop, these green onions wouldn't even be enough.
From this we can see that the people in Shanghai love onions as much as the big men in Qilu.
"Holy crap! Is this dish made with pork chops or green onions?"
When Wei Gan saw that Lin Xu had taken away so many green onions, he quickly asked the chef to peel some more and wash them.
Lin Xu said:
"Use onion flavor for pork chops. The more onions, the more delicious the pork chops will be."
Wei Qian was surprised when he heard this. He always felt that his family had a new opponent when it came to eating onions.
However, people in Shanghai despise green onions and only like to eat small onions, but the big men in Qilu always think that green onions are so cute, and they are still enjoyable to eat green onions that are taller than a person.
Cut the scallions in the middle, and pack the scallions and leaves separately.
Then set up the wok and start cooking.
Pour oil into the pan. The amount of oil should be more than usual for cooking. After the oil is hot, put the marinated pork chops into the pan for frying.
This step is to lock in the moisture in the pork chops and keep the pork chops tender and juicy.
When frying, the oil temperature should be high, so that the surface of the pork chop can be fried to a final shape as soon as possible. When both sides are fried, use tongs to take the pork chop out of the pan, and then fry the next piece.
All the pork chops are fried, spread the sliced scallions on the bottom of the pot, and start frying the scallions.
The sight of half a pot of scallions spread in hot oil for frying made Lin Xu easily think of boiling scallion oil and cooking oil.
That's why when making these two kinds of seasoning oil, onions are put into the pot in bundles like this.
The scallions are delicate and tender, and the white color of the scallions is quickly fried until they collapse.
Put the scallion leaves in and fry them briefly, then add half a frying spoon of dark soy sauce, half a frying spoon of light soy sauce, half a frying spoon of rice wine, a small handful of rock sugar, and a small bowl of water.
Cook for a while, spread the fried pork chops on the green onion leaves, cover the pot, and simmer over medium-low heat.
The so-called medium-low heat is to lower the heat on the basis of medium heat, so that the flavor of the onions can be soaked into the pork chops while also keeping the pork chops fresh and tender.
If you use high heat, by the time the pork chops are done, the meat will probably be too old to bite.
"This seasoning looks quite simple. I'll wait and see how it tastes when it's cooked. If it works, I'll make it for Lu Lu too, so that she can experience the exquisiteness of Shanghainese people."
Zhu Yong is very attentive every time he cooks new dishes.
He always wanted to learn how to cook it for Lu Lu, but every time he did this, Wei Qian couldn't help but laugh at him.
But Wei Qian rarely said anything today.
Because he was kept far away from Song Tiantian while riding a bicycle for several days in a row, he felt a bit short of heroism and was afraid of being killed when he mocked Zhu Yong.
Lin Xu said:
"The characteristic of our cuisine is the rich red sauce. If soy sauce can be put in the dish, salt will not be added. If there is too much soy sauce, sugar will be used to bring back the taste. Basically, it is the same routine."
Grilled pork ribs with green onions is considered a home-cooked dish in Shanghai, and the seasoning is almost the same in every family.
If you like sweetness, add more sugar; if you don’t like it, add less sugar.
Today, Mr. Yan, who was entertaining Mr. Yan, was from Shanghai, so Lin Xu deliberately put in more rock sugar. According to his own taste, cutting the sugar in half would be too much.
Soon, a rich aroma wafted out of the pot.
It has the aroma of onions and sauce.
You can see from the transparent pot lid that the scallion leaves and white scallions inside have completely collapsed, and the pork chops are soaked in the reddish-brown soy sauce soup and simmering happily.
Six minutes later, when the soup in the pot gradually became less, Lin Xu opened the lid.
A pleasant aroma suddenly gushes out from the pot. This smell is mixed with the aroma of pork, soy sauce, green onions, and the caramel aroma stimulated by the hot oil after the rock sugar has melted...
Many fragrances are mixed together, making people intoxicated after just one whiff.
It smells so good.
It is indeed a dish that Shanghainese will never forget.
At this time, the shallots in the pot have been cooked into a ball, and it even feels like melting, while the pork chops have been soaked in dark soy sauce and turned into a ruddy color.
Paired with the thick oily sauce at the bottom of the pot, people will unconsciously think of the word thick oily red sauce.
Before seeing this dish, Lin Xu had no idea about the concept of thick oily red sauce.
But now, smelling the delicious smell and looking at the attractive color in the pot, I finally have a clear understanding of the rich red sauce.
Use a tassel to remove the pork chops from the pot and place them on a plate.
When pinching, pick out all the green onions that have shrunk into small balls.
Although these green onions have become inconspicuous, when it comes to eating, these pork chops have to be avoided.
These green onions contain a mixture of soy sauce and rock sugar. Whether mixed into rice or noodles, it can double the amount of rice you eat.
It’s simply a magical tool for eating.
After the dishes are put out of the pot, the soup is poured on top, and the dish is considered complete.
Zhu Yong took a small spoon and scraped a little soup from the bottom of the pot and tasted it, and he was full of praise for this person:
"Holy shit, this tastes really amazing, this little salty and sweet taste, I can't stop the car without two bowls of rice... Boss, please teach me how to make it when you're not busy. I like this taste so much."<
/p>
Lin Xu put the lid on the plate, walked out with the plate and asked:
"Do you like it or Lu Lu likes it?"
"I like them all, don't forget to teach me!"
"I will never forget it."
As soon as I walked out of the kitchen, the system's beep sounded in my mind:
"The fried pork cutlet made by the host changed the dining plan for more than six people. I completed the skill task of fried pork cutlet and officially obtained the outstanding dish - fried pork cutlet. Congratulations to the host."
Finally done.
"Are you ready to be the boss? How about I take care of you?"
When I walked to the stairs, I happened to bump into Shu Yun. When the general manager saw the boss personally delivering the food, he hurriedly wanted to take it.
Lin Xu smiled and said:
"I'll just come. Please open the door for me later."
They are so kind to Dundun, so naturally we should reciprocate the favor.
Shu Yun led the way. When she arrived at the private room door, she did not push the door immediately. Instead, she knocked on the door first to signal the customers dining inside that someone was coming in. Then she opened the door and stood aside.
Lin Xu walked in with a plate and saw Yan Lin sitting at the deputy chief's seat.
This lady is about forty years old. She is thin and not too tall. Her neat short hair and decent clothes all reveal her competence as a professional elite.
Yan Lin had almost finished eating by now and was holding Dundun in her arms and having fun.
Shen Guofu was still eating with a happy face. After eating fat-reducing meals for so many days, he suddenly ate fried pork chop, and his happiness almost overflowed.
"Xiao Xu is here, are the grilled green onion steaks ready?"
Seeing his son-in-law come in, Shen Guofu quickly wiped the bread crumbs from the corner of his mouth with a napkin and looked at the plate he was holding with interest.
"Mr. Shen, is this your son-in-law? He's really handsome."
Because of Dundun's relationship, Yan Lin knew Lin Xu and had even seen those cooking tutorials on the Internet more than once.
I originally thought that those videos all used beauty filters, but when I met Lin Xu, I realized that this young man is even more handsome than online.
It even makes people wonder if an ugly filter was used.
"Yes, he is my son-in-law Lin Xu. Xiaoxu, this is Mr. Yan. He likes our Dundun very much. He even brought a gift to Dundun when he came to the capital this time."
"Hello, Mr. Yan! This is the grilled scallion steak you asked for."
Lin Xu placed the dish in front of Yan Lin and then opened the lid.
The rich fragrance immediately wafted out from the plate, attracting everyone in the room.
"Well, this scent... makes me feel like I'm a kid again."
Smelling this fragrance, Yan Lin felt like she had gone back to living in an alley when she was a child.
I remember very clearly that when my grandma made grilled pork ribs with green onions, it was just the smell of soy sauce and green onions, without any other messy seasonings.
But it was this smell that haunted her until now.
"Mr. Shen, why don't you come too?"
Yan Lin did not taste it immediately, but took the express and gave Shen Guofu a piece of pork chop.
Seeing that it was inconvenient for her to hold Dundun, Lin Xu reached out and Dundun climbed onto Yan Lin's shoulders, then jumped lightly into Lin Xu's arms.
Yan Lin was surprised by this tacit understanding.
I really didn’t expect Dundun to be so well-behaved and sensible, and he knew exactly what to do as soon as his master stretched out his hand.
It's a pity that I am too busy at work, otherwise I would have to raise a well-behaved kitten.
With such a healing little guy by my side, I can probably wake up from my dreams with a smile.
After sighing with emotion, Yan Lin picked up a piece of pork chop and put it on her plate. Then she took a knife and fork, skillfully cut off a large pork chop and put it in her mouth.
"Wow, this tastes so good. I feel like I'm eating the pork chops made by my grandma again. Thank you, Boss Xiaolin, your craftsmanship is really great."
I just ate fried pork cutlet and I was almost full.
She put down her knife and fork when she wanted to taste a piece.
But after eating several pieces in a row, instead of stopping, the more I ate, the more I wanted to eat.
This taste, this texture, really has nothing to say.
Next to him, Shen Guofu was also amazed:
"Xiao Xu's craftsmanship is really unparalleled. I worked in Shanghai for a few months and had grilled scallion ribs several times. This is the taste."
After sighing with emotion, he pointed to the grilled scallions on the plate and said to the vice presidents and managers of both parties:
"Come, come, come and try my son-in-law's craftsmanship."
As soon as Shen Guofu finished speaking, the vice presidents and managers beside him, who had already secretly swallowed their saliva, rushed forward. The plate was instantly empty. Not only were the pork chops taken away, but the green onions were not spared.
Everyone praised while tasting:
“It’s so delicious!”
"I never thought that green onions could do this."
"Boss Lin's craftsmanship is really impressive. I'll show it off to my friends after I finish eating."
“As a Shanghainese, it’s incredible to be able to eat the most authentic local cuisine in Beijing, which is known as a food hub.”
"..."
After everyone started eating, Lin Xu hugged Dundun and left the private room.
As soon as he went out, he noticed that the progress of the mission had changed.
From the initial [0/10] to [3/10].
Oh, besides Mr. Yan, there are at least two people from Shanghai in the room.
Of course, there may be more, but the pork chops are just a few pieces, and the vice presidents of both parties are not enough to share, let alone the department managers.
"I should have known how many more pieces I would make. If everyone had a piece, I might have heard the notification that the task was completed by now. It's a pity..."
When Lin Xu was holding Dundun at the door and feeling secretly annoyed, Yan Lin finally put down her knife and fork and sighed with satisfaction:
"It's so delicious. Originally, I wanted to mix the soup and green onions with some rice or noodles, but now I can't even eat one bite... Mr. Shen, can you give me a private room here tonight?" "No problem, Mr. Yan, what are you doing?"
Yan Lin wiped the grease from the corners of her mouth with a tissue and said with a smile:
"There are a group of Shanghai bosses in Beijing who are good friends with me. They always complain that they have no place to eat. Since your son-in-law's place is nice, I will host a banquet for those friends tonight and give them a surprise!"
