Xu Suizhu gave his son a piece of frog leg meat and told him: "Try not to talk while eating. If you want to talk, wait until the food in your mouth is swallowed."
"Uh-huh."
With the delicious food in his mouth, there was no time to talk. Zhuangzhuang was seen burying his head in eating fiercely, and the little bun was also eating big chunks of it with satisfaction.
The adults were similar. Their taste buds were completely opened by the charcoal-fired frog pot with all its color, aroma and flavor. They had no time to chat. Even if they exchanged a few words between dishes, they all praised the deliciousness of the bullfrog.
"too delicious!"
Wang Youzhi buried himself in the meal. After he was full of wine and food, he leaned lazily on the back of his chair and sighed with satisfaction: "I never knew that bullfrogs can eat like this! Sister, you are my sister!"
His Friendship Restaurant can add another dish that will definitely make diners flock here and leave with satisfaction!
Xu Suizhu knew after eating that he would definitely want to promote this dish, and said with a smile: "Second brother, frog pot can be paired with many dishes. What we ate today is pure frog pot. If you make it in a restaurant, you can also mix it with
The prawns can be used together to make a bullfrog and shrimp pot, with bullfrogs on the lower layer and large prawns on the upper layer; you can also make a bullfrog and chicken feet pot with the crispy stewed chicken feet... In this way, customers will have more room to choose based on taste and price.
…”
The more Wang Youzhi listened, the brighter his eyes became. He wished he could rush back that day and hold a meeting with the hotel chef overnight, and then launch this dish the next day that would definitely double the hotel's profit. Unfortunately, he didn't have the habit of burning the midnight oil, so he could only hold back.
With a surging heart, I discussed with my girlfriend how to make frog pot.
In addition, if you really want to promote it in restaurants, you have to order a batch of old copper hotpots.
"Is there an old copper shop in our area?"
He suddenly thought of this practical problem.
Charcoal fire frog pot, charcoal fire frog pot, there is no magical vessel that can burn charcoal and serve customers food at the same time. Even if he drives all night to get back, it will be useless!
"I haven't heard of it in Yupu, but I remember that there was one in the neighboring city. It was originally a collective hardware store. After being contracted by individuals, it also made copper parts." Lin Jianbing, who came to deliver seafood and stayed for a quick meal, said, "Why don't you change the style?
After drawing it, when I went to the neighboring market to pay for the goods, I stopped by that store to see if the chef in their store knew how to do it."
"That's a good feeling!"
Wang Youzhi immediately wrote a cash check to Lin Jianbing, planning to order fifty pieces of double-layered old copper hot pots first, and if business is good, he will place more orders.
Laotong hotpot is relatively rare in Yupu area.
The soil and water support the people. Similarly, the daily utensils are also adapted to the local climate and habits: even if the people here heat the pot, they stew fish and small seafood in a single-layer large soup pot on the briquette stove, and rarely eat them while eating.
Add charcoal as you go.
But what the frog pot wants is this atmosphere. If it is replaced by an ordinary soup pot, it seems that something is missing.
Fortunately, Xu Suizhu still kept the drawings that he had originally asked the old Kyoto chef to make hot pot, and took them out and slightly modified the dimensions.
In restaurants, there are generally three or five people eating at a table, so the frog pot does not need to be so big. Usually three pounds of bullfrogs plus side dishes can fill up the double-layered frog pot. Otherwise, if it is too big, it means that there is not enough ingredients to fill it.
, it means that the price is too expensive and exceeds the customer’s psychological price range, so they are unwilling to order and try it.
"Second brother, you can also make a few single-layer pots for couples, young couples or single people." Xu Suizhu suggested.
"good idea!"
Wang Youzhi then added twenty single-layer pots to the old double-layer hot pot.
There is no secret about the old hot pot. As long as the hardware master has made one, he will basically know it. There is no use hiding it.
Even if there are other restaurants copycats, they will buy a batch of old copper hot pots and make frog pots. What determines which frog pot is more popular is not that the hot pot is bad, but whether the taste of the bullfrog itself is more satisfying.
Wang Youzhi nodded. Not only did he listen carefully, he also took out a small notebook from his briefcase and wrote down some key points. For example, the bullfrog needs to be properly marinated before being oiled to enhance its flavor; oiling is to give the bullfrog its shape and shape.
Accelerate the maturity. Although it is still simmered over charcoal fire after being served to the table, diners will usually eat it. If it is not fully cooked, the parasites in the bullfrog will be transferred to the human body. Cooking is the prerequisite for everything, and the second step is to eat it.
It is to improve the taste; for example, after oiling, you need to brush a layer of red oil and then stew it to add color and brightness; the selection of side dishes is also very important... there are all kinds of things, I have written them all down, a good memory is not as good as a bad pen!
Out of gratitude, he insisted on taking over the transportation of condensed milk for "Youcup Milk Tea".
"Brothers have to settle accounts openly! Brother, I can't use your ideas every time! Anyway, my restaurant will regularly purchase goods from the northwest, and it won't take much time to bring you some condensed milk. The shipping fee is small.
If you also want to settle with me, then I will share it with you in proportion!"
Xu Suizhu couldn't resist him and smiled and thanked him.
The cost of condensed milk cannot be said to be expensive, but it is expensive because of the long and bumpy transportation costs.
Excluding transportation costs, the cost of condensed milk is much lower, and the cost of milk tea can also be reduced a lot. Brother Wang is actually giving her money in disguise.
Here, Wang Youzhi got a recipe for a new dish, and rushed back to the provincial capital early the next morning to work on a new menu in full swing.
Over there, the father and son of the Feng family in Shuangquan Town, after Xu Suizhu and his wife left, tried to roast bullfrog several times using the method she said.
It was my first time to bake, because I had no experience. Either the fire was too high and it was scorched, or the marinade was not seasoned enough before baking, and it was too bland, or the flour was coated too thickly before being oiled, and it turned into a flour frog when put in the oil pan...
In short, neither the appearance nor the taste is good.
The second time, based on the first time, I not only adjusted the amount of pickling salt and the thinness of the batter, but also always paid attention to the charcoal fire during baking. In a hurry, I was able to bake a few edible skewers.
This is the third time I have experience. It bakes slowly and slowly, and there is still time to sprinkle some pepper, chili powder, etc. when roasting. The skin is golden brown, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Not only does it look good, but the taste is also quite amazing.
.
The kids at home couldn't get enough of one and were clamoring for more.
Feng Jianhe immediately exchanged "hopeful" and surprised looks with his father.
"Did the big girl say that the fjord scenic spot in Yupu can give us a stall? If we can really set up a stall in the fjord scenic spot and the business picks up, who will worry about the lack of sales of bullfrogs! We won't be afraid that our customers will be robbed by our peers.
Whoever wants to rob can grab it! When the contract expires, I won’t serve you any more! I’ll do it myself! Well done, our bullfrogs may not be enough for my own use!”
Feng Jianhe made a prompt decision and wrote down the tools and seasonings needed to roast the bullfrog one by one. He then found out that all the senior students at Fjord Middle School had already started school. Didn't the older girl say that she taught at Fjord Middle School? Mainly.
He was teaching the third year of high school, so he must have gone to work, so he grabbed about ten kilograms of the big bullfrog, put it in a net bag, pedaled a tricycle, and carried the woman who was also hopeful but a little nervous, through most of the city, and came.
Arrive at the fjord town that looks like a paradise.
