Chapter 33 Hotpot, the evil thing

Maybe winter and hot pot are a perfect match, maybe the taste of Chinese people has been consistent for thousands of years, and the hot pot is so popular that the late diners often can't eat it because they don't have the pot. Shen Shaoguang hurriedly went to add another batch. pot.

When going to order the pot, the craftsman said to Shen Shaoguang, "There are people who have made it with similar pictures in the past two days."

Peer? Shen Shaoguang smiled and asked, "How many have you ordered?"

The craftsman said: "Five, looking at it, it looks like a servant of a wealthy family."

Shen Shaoguang understood, 80% of the time, the diners thought it was good to eat in the store, and they also wanted to go home and eat it. After all, he is a rich man, and he buys five such expensive pots at a time.

There is no copyright awareness in this era, and besides, the hot pot is not original, nor does it intend to monopolize it, Shen Shaoguang said with a smile: "You can do it for them."

The craftsman did not refuse at first, but only knew that this little lady was the owner of the wine shop, who created this unique tableware, and now it has been copied. I was afraid that she would be in the way, so I told her to calm down. Now listening to her saying that you can do it for others, the craftsman laughed: "The little lady is very big."

Being given a good person card, Shen Shaoguang accepted it generously.

In fact, not only this copper blacksmith shop received the business of making hot pot, but also someone from another copper blacksmith shop in the West City came to ask for a pot like this with a picture, but the size, height, thickness of the furnace, etc. are all slowly It seems that the technical content is not high, but if you do not handle it well, you will either not be able to pull out the fire, or it will be easy to suffocate the pot.

Even diners who were lucky enough to get a suitable pot found that they didn't seem to be as delicious as Shenji's restaurant when they made it at home.

That is! The pot is just the first step, okay? There are also pot bottoms, seasonings, shabu-shabu...

We are a research and development innovative wine restaurant! Shen Shaoguang is constantly innovating, striving to be imitated and never surpassed.

Hearing Shen Shaoguang's famous saying of later generations, A Yuan nodded vigorously, feeling that there is nothing wrong with her little lady, she is beautiful and kind, can write and calculate, cook well, draw well, even speak. So makes sense.

A Chang and A Yuan had similar expressions, and nodded with a smile. Looking at the two, Shen Shaoguang suddenly remembered the mongoose who were lining up to eat fruit...

Shen Shaoguang explained to the two embarrassedly: "I didn't say this, it's what I see."

A Yuan's eloquence is much better now, "That's because the little lady is very knowledgeable."

Nodding fiercely, it was replaced by Achang.

Yu Sanyi looked sad, turned around and walked back to the kitchen.

What else can Shen Shaoguang say? can only be gratified that A Yuan's vocabulary is getting bigger and bigger, and he is very knowledgeable... Then he is very knowledgeable.

A Chang is a new servant bought by Shen Shaoguang the day before yesterday. He is seventeen years old, small, with a round head and a round face. If he is not a little thin, he really looks like a brother and sister to A Yuan. This Achang is a servant of the merchant, and the merchant has a new wife, and the new wife has sold all the old people, including Achang, the janitor who sweeps the yard.

Shen Shaoguang asked Achang to help under the kitchen, making fire, cutting vegetables, washing dishes and washing dishes.

Achang is very happy about the new type of work, "It's a good job that you can't get in the kitchen!" Apart from serving Alang and Xiaolangs personally, or running errands as a wife's cronies, for the servants, the kitchen and the account room are all important tasks. Select on top.

Yu Achang, this kitchen seems to be better than following the gentlemen or serving in the accountant. It won't catch the rain or the sun, and no one will starve the people in the kitchen if you are hungry. In weather like this, nesting beside the stove , If you can still bury a taro in the ashes, oh, you won't change it for a god!

It was said that Shen Shaoguang was greedy, so he actually bought some. In addition to making the taro, it was really roasted on the stove. After the roast was fragrant and soft, Shen Shaoguang led A Yuan and A Chang around the stove to eat.

Breaking open the taro, there is a trace of heat inside, but the tongue burns when eat it, and the hotter it gets, the more want to eat it, but mouth is full of black hands.

Yu San saw that the three of them looked like Qisuoer, and pouted, unable to say anything.

After Shen Shaoguang finished eating, he felt a little regretful. Unfortunately, there were no sweet potatoes at this time, so that was really sweet.

Although Princess Yu is unwilling to "combine", she does have talent in cooking.

Shen Shaoguang is teaching Yu San Diao Clear Soup.

Clear soup is a magical thing. It is as clear as water, but it is fragrant and fresh. It is different from the thick and white milk soup. It is like a beauty with strict makeup and a hibiscus with clear water. To deceive people.

When he first saw the milk soup, Yu San was also a little surprised that someone could cook the broth until it was as thick and white as cow's milk, and when he saw this clear soup, he was even more amazed that it could be so clear!

Shen Shaoguang told him the stories he heard in his previous life.

"There is a restaurant chef who is best at making tofu. He was invited to a noble family to make vegetarian food. He was afraid that he would bring unclean and dirty things. Bring it. The cook came as promised, with two apprentices, white cloth towels on their shoulders, and came empty-handed."

"The vegetarian food with carrot and tofu is very delicious. The owner praised it and gave a lot of money."

Yu San looked at her.

"The secret is on the white cloth towel. It was soaked in clear soup. When I got to the kitchen, I twisted the soup out, and used this soup to stew tofu, which is naturally very fragrant."

Yu San frowned, "How big of a cloth do you need to absorb enough soup for a banquet?"

"If it's too wet and dripping, won't it let the master see it when you put it on your body?"

"..." Shen Shaoguang didn't expect Yu San to be a hidden logic controller!

After thinking about it, Shen Shaoguang said: "Actually, when I heard people say this, I just had an idea. The cloth towel was placed on my shoulders, touched my clothes, and maybe it was stained with sweat and dust - a bit salty."

"..." This time, Yu San was speechless.

But Shen Shaoguang felt that this was a good story. In the face of storytelling and suspense, logic and morality were nothing!

Shen Shaoguang turned the topic back, "Our clear soup doesn't have this problem. It's big enough and clean enough for us to stew a lot of green vegetables and tofu, and cook a lot of hot pot."

Hanging clear soup is more troublesome than boiling milk soup, because there is an additional "hanging" process.

Choose pork bones and old hens, boil them on a low heat, and keep the soup noodles slightly boiled - if the heat is too high, it will become a milk soup; Skim the oil to remove foam, and when it is boiled enough, it is an ordinary clear soup.

This kind of soup, if it is used at home, is enough. To pursue the effect of clear water, it is necessary to wrap the chopped chicken breast meat with gauze and put it into the soup, so that it can absorb the suspended matter in the soup. , repeating this again, it is the so-called "double hanging", and the soup becomes very clear.

Under the guidance of Shen Shaoguang, Yu San performed the operation for the first time, and the soup was hanged very successfully. The little lady's cooking skills are really good, but her temperament... Thinking about the two round-faced idiots outside, Yu San shook his head, that's all, that's all.

This clear soup pot is most suitable for people who are serious about vegetarian dishes.

In addition to the original milk soup pot, as well as this clear soup pot, Shen Shaoguang added seafood pot, mushroom pot, fish head and fish bone pot, wolfberry, red jujube and longan pot one after another... meat, vegetarian, seafood, river fresh, traditional Chinese medicine There are only one kind of shabu-shabu that is suitable for a hypocritical person like Lin Shaoyin, and there are always seven or eight kinds. Hey, as long as you come, you are sure to find the one that suits you!

Shabu products have also found their own characteristics - all kinds of meatballs. All kinds of meat slices are easy to imitate, but meatballs are not so easy to imitate.

How can this fish ball be more tender than tofu? Everyone who orders fish balls will be reminded, "Just fish it out of the pot, otherwise it will get old and loose"; this beef ball is actually wrapped in a package of soup, which is hot and fresh; different from fish balls, this chicken ball is actually elastic bouncing...

And that assortment of dipping sauces...

Everyone who ordered the copper pot at home found that the hot pot still had to go to Shenji to eat, and they couldn't make the taste of others at all.

There are also people who go to Yunlai Winery to have an eye-opener.

"Why doesn't Yunlai have hot pot? This restaurant is bigger than Shen Ji over there."

The man running the hall looked embarrassed. Does it depend on the size of the restaurant?

Reported to the second shopkeeper Wei San, Wei San did not dare to specialize in this time, and carefully reported to the shopkeeper Feng.

"Why don't we let people see the pot and make a few?"

Shopkeeper Feng glared at him: "I don't have a long memory!" Someone reported on the street that day that Lin Shaoyin and an old man had dinner at Shenji's reserved restaurant. Lin Shaoyin was very respectful to that person, probably a high-ranking official in the court.

Seeing that the twelfth lunar month was approaching, Director Lu, the director of Zhao Wangfu, followed Cao Changshi to Beijing to send tribute to the saint, to give gifts to relatives and nobles in the DPRK, and to meet all the people in Beijing by the way.

Shopkeeper Feng concealed his previous relationship, and only reported Shen Ji's rudeness and Lin Shaoyin's private dining room with a suspected high-ranking official in the DPRK.

Director Lu warned: "Don't provoke this Shen Ji. Listening to your description of this distinguished guest, it seems to be Li Xianggong."

Shopkeeper Feng guiltily said yes.

Hearing what Wei San said at this moment, he hurriedly reprimanded him, and repeatedly instructed him not to have such an unreasonable heart.

In fact, there is no manager Lu said, and the shopkeeper Feng will not order the so-called hot pot of Shen Ji - learning to walk with others in Handan, I can't afford to lose that person.

But it was not one or two who came to ask if there was hot pot. The shopkeeper Feng smiled wryly, feeling surrounded by this evil thing called hot pot.

Lin Shaoyin also felt surrounded by hot pot.

As the end of the year is approaching, Jingzhao has some Xing Prison lawsuits to be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment. After the handover was over, Lin Yan and Song Shilang from the Ministry of Punishment came out of the Ministry and returned home together.

Song Shilang said that he got a good thing, and he must invite Lin Yan to taste it.

Song Shilang is a direct descendant of the Song clan in Taiyuan, and his father and grandfather were among the third princes, and he is also very talented, so he is usually quite clean, and he and Lin Yan are slightly better friends than ordinary colleagues.

Song's real home of Zhongming Ding Food, how can he praise him for this "good thing"? Lin Yan aroused his curiosity and went to take a look - hot pot, and Song Shilang still threw everything in it.

"It's much easier to use than Xiaoding! It is said that it came from a wine shop. Someone gave me two. Very good, very good!"

Lin Yan: "..."

When I got home, I went to my grandmother's place to eat the evening meal. There was also a hot pot on the table, and my grandmother was excited: "Ayan, look at this fresh pot, it was sent by Pei Twelve Lang today. ."

Looking at another case next to the pot, which is dedicated to all kinds of rinse-off products, Lin Yan: "...very good, very good."

The author has something to say: The story of the clear soup was really told by a chef, and the background is about

Republic of China

, there are changes.
