In the past, there was only one state-run hotel in Songxian, which was located near the railway station. At that time, the business of state-run hotels was very prosperous, and every year they exceeded the standard and reached their turnover ahead of schedule.

But later, another state-run restaurant opened near the county party committee. Not to mention half of the customers at once, and because of the location, the county party committee and county government entertained leaders from the city, the province, and even Kyoto, and almost all of them went there.

Slowly, the common people also began to follow suit. Usually, weddings, wedding banquets, birthday parties, etc., always felt that it was more decent to go to the state-run hotel of the county party committee. Failed to reach the set turnover target!

In the past few years, there have been rumors that if the turnover of the state-owned hotel at the railway station continues to fail to meet the standard, it may be possible to replace the original staff and recruit new workers.

Although I don't know if it's true or not, the staff in the state-run hotel at the railway station are all nervous.

No one wants to lose their iron job.

So the chef Uncle Qin took several other chefs to develop new dishes every month... This has a certain effect, but as long as the new dish developed by Uncle Qin gradually became famous, the state-run restaurant of the county party committee Someone will be sent to steal the teacher.

It didn't take long for the same dishes to be launched in the state-run restaurant of the county party committee. The taste was similar but the price was slightly cheaper, which once again drew diners away.

Even so, Uncle Qin still relied on diligent, day and night to develop new dishes, pulling the railway station state-owned restaurant, barely completing the two-year turnover plan.

Until a few days ago, Uncle Qin got the stewed meat and herbs from Bai Taotao.

He distributed a little bit to Manager Xu and asked someone to analyze the ingredients to see what it was - the answer was that this is an ordinary plant, not a medicinal material, harmless to the human body, but it simply has special properties. Aroma, which can be extracted from various meat aromas when cooking.

Then Uncle Qin used the remaining spices to cook a few meat dishes in a very simple way, let all the staff try them, and got unanimous praise!

Uncle Qin immediately reported the situation to Manager Xu. Manager Xu was so excited that he could not wait to go to Ruyi Village the next day...

It was stopped by the like-minded Purchasing Section Chief Feng.

Section Chief Feng said: "People are busy with the autumn harvest at the moment. If we go over to talk business with people at this juncture, I am afraid it will be counterproductive. Let's wait a little longer. When the autumn harvest in the village is over, we will go there again."

So it's delayed until now.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Uncle Qin, Manager Xu and Section Chief Feng entered the village, they met a young woman who claimed to be "White Taotao"...

Manager Xu and Section Chief Feng did not recognize Bai Taotao, but Uncle Qin did.

Seeing this woman pretending to be on purpose and her eyes shining? ? ?

Uncle Qin has been a soldier for more than ten years and is very vigilant. The first reaction is - this woman has bad intentions, maybe she is an undercover arranged by the state-run hotel of the county party committee!

So he calmly tugged at the corner of Manager Xu's shirt.

Manager Xu, Uncle Qin and Section Chief Feng have been working together for seven or eight years, and there is still a tacit understanding.

Although it is not clear what happened, Manager Xu already knows that the key things cannot be said.

So he cleared his throat and said anxiously, "Comrade Bai Taotao, we... made a special trip to visit your father, Secretary Bai. Is Secretary Bai's injury better?"

Yan Naqian:  …

Just to visit the hurt?

Very disappointed.

But then I thought about it - can't you, and the manager of a state-run hotel in a county, Babadi came to Ruyi Village? I also think that several nearby villages have suffered from insect pests. Only Ruyi Village opened a library this year because of Taotao, and taught the villagers how to prevent and control rice diseases and insect pests every day. of.

Could it be that this restaurant manager is here to discuss business with Bai Zhenggan to buy and sell food?

Think again that in the few days before the autumn harvest, Bai Taotao just went to the city...

Yan Naqian has a bottom line in her heart.

Yan Naqian said generously: "My father is fine... By the way, Manager Xu, you... are you here to talk about purchasing?"

When Manager Xu heard this, he frowned, wondering if this woman was an insider?

He glanced at Uncle Qin without making a sound.

At this time, Yan Naqian also made a small calculation in her heart.

——In order to win Song rank, she has tried everything she can, but she has pushed further and further in the end. Now Song Zhi runs away as soon as he sees her, and his disgust for her can even be felt by others. So Yan Naqian can no longer rely on marrying Song zhi to win back to the city... At least she can't put all her treasures on Song zhi alone.

This year Ruyi Village has two indicators of workers, peasants, soldiers and students. Jiang Hongzhi also ran for election. Although he failed miserably, it also pointed out a way for Yan Naqian to leave the village.

Don't you want to be advanced!

Carrying a **** to do farm work is really hard. If you have to be like Bai Dongsheng, you can become an advanced person by working hard, dirty, and tiring on the ground...

Might as well be lazy!

However, what if this state-run hotel came to talk to Bai Zhenggan for business?

If she intercepts Hu, the credit will be hers, and in the future, it will be a powerful vote for her to run for the worker, peasant, and soldier student seat!

Thinking of this, Yan Naqian's heart became hot immediately, and she said enthusiastically, "Manager Xu, my father has already told me about this, this... just talk to me."

Uncle Qin just thought it was funny.

——What Taotao said between them was: All purchasing details need to be discussed with her father in detail.

As a result, when the woman who pretended to be Taotao came into the mouth, she became her father and asked her to be a plenipotentiary representative?

However, Uncle Qin still didn't plan to say a word.

He wanted to see what kind of spear this woman was playing with!

Manager Xu is in a dilemma.

In the face of Yan Naqian's enthusiastic question, if he answered, he was afraid of saying the wrong thing; if he didn't answer, it seemed bad?

At this time, Chief Feng, who was standing beside him, was anxious and wise, and said, "Comrade Bai Taotao, it's like this. Your father has ordered a hundred tables of banquets in our hotel. We are here... to collect the deposit."

Manager Xu and Uncle Qin immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Manager Xu immediately said: "Yes, since you have full authority to handle this matter, you must give us a deposit of 100 yuan, right?"

Yan Naqian:  …

Manager Xu, "Uncle Qin, please open the receipt and we will collect the money."

Uncle Qin responded very loudly, and then he pretended to open the briefcase and turned it over...

Yan Naqian spoke with difficulty, "No, no...you, you..."

Just at this moment, Jia Xiaohong walked out of the educated youth station together with the other male and female educated youths.

As soon as the farming season is over, everyone plans to go to the town to buy something.

Jia Xiaohong was a little curious when she saw Yan Naqian and three middle-aged men from the city standing together and talking, and pulled a few little sisters over.

Uncle Qin rolled his eyes and said to Jia Xiaohong, "Little comrade, could you lend me a piece of paper and a pen? We came from the state-run hotel in the county seat. Comrade Bai Taotao wants to replace her father and sign a copy with us. Receipt contract."

——He especially emphasized the three characters "white peach peach", and used the Spring and Autumn technique to point out the "receipt contract", neither saying who paid, who received the money, nor what the money was given for.

Yan Naqian was in a hurry, so she took Manager Xu and walked aside, "Manager Xu is full of people here, and it's very noisy, let's... go to a place with fewer people over there and talk!"

Then he rushed Jia Xiaohong and other educated youths, "Oh, hurry up! What's the matter with you, hurry up and hurry up!"

But Jia Xiaohong had already grasped the point, and asked in confusion, "White Taotao?"

Uncle Qin nodded.

Jia Xiaohong was stunned, and looked around, even up and down, and wondered, "But Tao Tao is not here!"

Uncle Qin was overjoyed, and quickly looked at Yan Naqian with a surprised look.

Manager Xu and Section Chief Feng also looked at Yan Naqian in shock - so this woman is not Bai Taotao? ! What a shame this man is!

Uncle Qin pretended to be surprised, "No way! This **** said she was Bai Taotao, the daughter of Secretary Bai! This, this..."

Yan Naqian's face was flushed, and she hated Jia Xiaohong - in the original book, Jiang Hongzhi and Jia Xiaohong didn't deserve to have a name, but why was she able to demolish her platform again and again and make her feel bad?

The educated youth next to him pointed at him——

"Is Yan Naqian crazy, why is she pretending to be Taotao?"

"Why is she doing things all day long?"

"My God, is she trying to impersonate Tao Tao and cheat money?"

"Maybe, I just heard what the comrade said about the collection contract or something!"

"Let's hurry up and report to the secretary! Don't really have any trouble!"

Several educated youths went to find Bai Zhenggan.

Uncle Qin, Manager Xu and Section Chief Feng stared closely at Yan Naqian.

Jia Xiaohong mercilessly exposed Yan Naqian's true face, and said to everyone, "Everyone, you have been deceived. This is the famous Yan Naqian in our village who is the most powerful in stealing food and drinking! She is not the daughter of the village party secretary at all!"

Manager Xu and Section Chief Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

Manager Xu, "How can today's young people get it!"

Section Chief Feng, "Did you... just want to cheat money?"

Yan Naqian's face was stabbed into a sieve by the sharp and sarcastic eyes of everyone, so she had to bite the bullet and say, "I, I didn't lie... Actually, I, I am... I, I am Secretary Bai's goddaughter!"

"Don't talk nonsense!" A sweet and melodious voice sounded.

When everyone looked back, it was the Tao Tao and Xing Xing sisters who were carrying a basket on their backs.

——The two of them were already nearby, and the educated youth rushed to find Bai Zhenggan in a hurry. He first met the Taoxing sisters on the way, and hurriedly told the authentic Bai Taotao deity about Yan Naqian impersonating her, and told her to immediately. I rushed to the educated youth station, and then hurried to the village committee to find Bai Zhenggan.

As soon as Taotao arrived, she heard Yan Naqian brazenly say that she was her father's goddaughter?

Xing Xing also heard it. She hated Yan Naqian the most, so she said loudly, "Why does my father accept you as his daughter? Are you more diligent than my third sister, or better-looking and capable than my fourth sister? Hmph, I Dad does not lack a daughter, but also a dog, whether you want to be or not, it's up to you!"

The educated youths onlookers laughed happily.

Yan Naqian was very angry, "You!"

Tao Tao hurriedly made up her knife, "Xing Xing, I won't allow you to say that Yan Naqian is a dog!"

Yan Naqian:  …

At this time, Bai Zhengqian also hurried over with a cane.

Xing Xing had already run over, "Dad! Yan Naqian is shameless! She impersonated my fourth sister and almost cheated other people's money! Then she made a rumor that she is your goddaughter! Dad, please kill her quickly. !"

Yan Naqian lowered her head, wishing she could crawl in.

Taotao greeted Uncle Qin first, "Hello Uncle Qin! How is Auntie?"

Uncle Qin smiled and nodded, "Okay! She talks about you every day at home... Ah yes, Xiao Zhuzi's younger brother has been hospitalized for treatment. We were afraid that it would be unsafe for her to stay there alone, so let's move in first. Our family went to live. That child is so good..."

Yan Naqian was stunned when she saw Uncle Qin and Bai Taotao being so familiar and intimate.

——So these people knew early on that she was not Bai Taotao?

Yan Naqian didn't have the face to stay here anymore, stomped her feet, turned around and ran away!

Bai Zhenggan arrived, stared at Yan Naqian's back for a while, suppressed the evil in his eyes, and greeted Manager Xu and Section Chief Feng warmly under the introduction of Tao Tao and Uncle Qin.

When Manager Xu and Section Chief Feng saw Bai Zhenggan's bearing, they immediately felt relieved.

A group of people walked towards the village committee while talking.

However, Bai Zhenggan suddenly stood still and said to everyone, "It's almost time for dinner, why don't you go to my house and let their sisters cook for you..."

Then he said cheerfully: "How many sisters are they...you're young, and you have a lot of ideas for cooking! There are so many famous places!" The doting and pride in his tone were self-evident.

Uncle Qin was moved.

——Then dare to be good, just to secretly teach.

Manager Xu and Section Chief Feng certainly have no opinion.

Bai Zhengqian asked Xingxing to call the village chief, village cadres, the cadres of the production teams and the clan elders to come to the house for a light meal together.

At the same time, he winked at his little daughter.

Xing Xing knew something in her heart—inviting so many people over for dinner, and it was for business, then this meal should be paid by the public.

She nodded, turned and ran.

Tao Tao is the first to go home and boil water to make tea to entertain guests.

When Manager Xu, Section Chief Feng, and Uncle Qin came to the house to take a look - woohoo, what an elegant farmyard like a fairyland!

Neat and clean inside and out. There are bamboo racks in the yard, and four or five layers of bamboo sieves are placed on the bamboo racks, and different things are dried on each layer. There are those with small fish and shrimps, those with mushrooms, those with dried vegetables, those with white chrysanthemum and honeysuckle...

There are all kinds of flowers planted in the corners of the wall. Now it is late autumn, but chrysanthemums of various colors are in full bloom, so lively! Under the porch, there are bonsai transformed from old bamboo hats, mainly bluegrass Qiuhui, and occasionally a few pots of elegant yellow flowers bloom, which are very eye-catching.

Lili and Tan Fenghui also came out to greet the guests.

Bai Zhenggan instructed the two of them: "Take out our family's two or eight immortal tables and put them in the yard, and the four uncles will all come soon. You cook the rice first, and it will count as thirty people to eat... Later, I will call Taotao to make vegetables. , you give her a hand."

When Li Li and Tan Fenghui heard that the three were from the state-run hotel at the county railway station, they immediately understood.

So the sisters and sisters got ready.

On the other side, after Xing Xing called people from house to house, under the leadership of the village chief's wife, he opened the village's grain depot, fetched twenty kilograms of rice, carried two ducks, two chickens, A piece of bacon that weighs four or five pounds, plus a piece of pork belly that weighs seven or eight pounds.

——The day before yesterday was the last day of the autumn harvest. The village chief originally sent people to the town to buy meat. He was supposed to reward the villagers who went to work, but the people who bought the meat were delayed on the way. So much so that Taotao and the others had to replace the pork with other vegetables, and because of this, the pork that weighed seven or eight jins came out and put it in the cellar of the village.

Just took it out today.

And because they were afraid that it would not look good to carry them in through the front door, Xing Xing and the village chief's wife detoured to the back of their vegetable garden and entered through the back door.

At this time, Tao Tao was making tea.

Tang Liren is very good at frying tea. On the second day after the autumn harvest, when she went up the mountain to collect firewood, she found that the wild tea trees in the jungle were sprouting new shoots. She quickly called the whole family to go up the mountain together. About twenty kilograms of fresh tea leaves, after several frying, I got four or five kilograms of new tea, and the quality is very good.

Tao Tao loves the tea made by her mother and drinks several cups every day. She was still clamoring to send two kilograms to brother Nansheng by mail, and then she stopped and shouted to pick some tea leaves back... It's just that there are too many things in the past few days, and I can't stop for a while.

Tao Tao cooks licorice white chrysanthemum green tea.

The white chrysanthemums grown in my yard are picked when they are in full bloom and placed on a drying rack to dry in the shade. When making tea, three or four tea leaves are paired with a small white chrysanthemum and a small piece of licorice. The small white chrysanthemum will slowly bloom in the tea, and will be dyed a light green by the green tea leaves. It is really beautiful!

Take a sip, there is not only the slight bitterness and fragrance unique to green tea, but also the fragrant floral fragrance of white chrysanthemum, and the licorice brings a touch of sweetness and sweetness...

The traveler who had been exhausted by boat and car all the way suddenly felt tired and completely disappeared, and his mood seemed to be better.

Uncle Qin held the pottery cup and thought: Can I buy some dried white chrysanthemums to go back? The guests who eat in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel are also ignored. The guests who eat in the boxes on the second floor and the third floor are either rich or on business. It is not expensive to make a cup of this kind of tea for each of these guests. It's easy to win favor...

The more he thought about it, the more he felt right, and he couldn't help but nodded again and again, and added to the shopping list in his heart: white chrysanthemum.

After Tao Tao cooked tea for the guests, she went to the kitchen.

It happened that Xing Xing and the village chief’s wife brought all kinds of ingredients out of breath. Tao Tao double-checked it and quickly made a decision:

The main dish is hot pot, duck bones, a pound of pork and a pound of bacon are used as the soup base, and the hot pot side dishes are picked directly from their own vegetable garden; two chickens, one old hen is made into braised chicken with red dates and astragalus, one tender The chick is made into white-cut chicken; a whole duck is made into dried duck with perilla bamboo shoots, and the pork is made into four kinds of methods: stewed meat, braised meat, barbecue roll, and grape meat puree. Then there are all kinds of dry dishes that have been prepared and recommended to state-run restaurants early in the morning.

For a while, Tang Liren, Tan Fenghui, Lili, Xingxing and the village chief's wife were all busy!

Kill chickens and ducks, cut meat and stew, and soak all kinds of dried bamboo shoots, dried mushrooms and fungus, and serve them in the vegetable garden to pick and wash vegetables...

Everyone was very busy.

Uncle Qin sneaked into the kitchen quietly, trying to steal the teacher.

Does Taotao know Uncle Qin's thoughts?

But she was smiling and instructing Uncle Qin to work!

Uncle Qin readily agreed. He is a strong, professional chef. He handles many ingredients professionally and swiftly. With his participation, the women can quickly prepare the ingredients.

And the men had a great time talking in the yard.

——Of course, it was mainly because of the bumper harvest in Ruyi Village this year, which made the village cadres in high spirits, and the manager of the state-run restaurant came here to buy things from the village, and it was another income, so everyone was even happier.

However, Manager Xu, who was almost planted in Yan Naqian's hands just now, was really upset, so he told Yan Naqian a little.

Other village officials quickly asked what was going on.

I heard that Yan Naqian wanted to deceive people?

Everyone was very disgusted with Yan Naqian, and now everyone is thinking - it seems that this person can't stay!

Manager Xu took it as soon as he saw it, changed the subject again, and asked about the specialties of the village.

For a time, the people in the village warmly recommended it, and it was extraordinarily lively.

When it was time for dinner, Xing Xing ran out and shouted that it was time to start dinner! Then everyone suppressed their anxious and anxious mood, stretched their necks and waited—

The first dish was hot pot.

The girls first got on the small charcoal stove, and then brought up the casserole, which was placed on the charcoal stove. Everyone immediately smelled the rich aroma of bacon, mixed with the slight fishy smell of duck, and opened the lid to see that there was a thick milky white soup that was rolling away.

Everyone couldn't help but "gudu" and swallowed.

Bai Zhenggan explained: "This hot pot, let them scoop the soup first, let's taste the taste of the soup, and then let them put the vegetables in to cook, it will take time to eat this, let's drink the soup first, and then eat other dishes! "

Li Li Xing Xing added a small bowl of hot pot soup to each guest.

As soon as the soup entered, everyone exclaimed with satisfaction.

——The bacon is salty and the duck is fishy. I didn’t expect that when these two ingredients meet, the soup boiled is so delicious!

Next, Lili and Xingxing sent four more meats: stewed meat, braised meat, barbecue rolls and grape puree meat.

Among them, the appearance of stewed meat is the worst.

It looks like there is no seasoning in it, it's a white bowl, and even the soup is clear?

Everyone looked at this dish, and their hearts were beating.

When Li Li Xing Xing divided the dishes for everyone, everyone tried to take a bite.

sky!

How is this pork so delicious!

Especially Manager Xu, Section Chief Feng, and Uncle Qin, the three of them were shocked, and they ate it in one bite. This dish contained stewed meat and spices!

Uncle Qin is also a cooking participant. He saw with his own eyes that when Taotao asked people to make this dish, they only put two slices of **** to remove the fishy smell, and then put some salt and a small piece of stewed meat with herbs. When serving, Tao Tao also just tossed the **** and herbs, that's all.

However, this stewed pork belly slices have an indescribable meat fragrance in the mouth. And I can't taste the taste of spices, I just feel that the pork is extraordinarily fragrant and delicious!

Manager Xu, Section Chief Feng, and Uncle Qin secretly exchanged glances: We must sign the supply and sales contract, get the stewed meat and herbs, and we must not let the county party state-run restaurant know this secret!

After eating the stewed meat, Lili and Xingxing continued to serve everyone.

This time it was braised pork.

The braised pork is oily and red, and the side dish is dried shiitake mushrooms, which is fragrant and delicious.

Everyone tried another mouthful of braised pork, but they felt that the fat meat was sweet and glutinous, and the lean meat was tasty and chewy, so delicious that they almost swallowed their tongues!

But when everyone ate the side dish in the braised pork - shiitake mushrooms, they were once again deeply amazed!

Why are shiitake mushrooms better than braised pork? ? ?

This unscientific!

Every shiitake mushroom is a small, complete, full of the broth of the braised pork, delicious and unusual. And it is very soft and tender, and it melts in the mouth, only the part of the umbrella handle is still a little chewy.

And the unique fragrance of Xiangru makes people linger...

Manager Xu, Section Chief Feng and Uncle Qin looked at each other again: This mushroom must be taken!

After tasting Xiangru Braised Pork, Li Li Xing Xing gave everyone another dish called Roast Meat Roll.

This barbecue roll is actually fried, and it looks particularly beautiful on the outside.

——The pork is cut into long strips, and after frying, it is rolled with fresh oyster mushrooms cooked in chicken broth, tofu skin, then a small piece of fresh and raw cucumber and a small piece of crisp raw sour radish.

Each meat roll is threaded through a bamboo skewer, which is exactly the size of a big bite.

One bite, first of all, the ultimate meat aroma, mixed with the soft, glutinous and fresh of oyster mushrooms, the bean aroma of tofu skin, the freshness of raw cucumbers, and the freshness and openness of pickled radishes!

I have to say, this dish is bells and whistles, but it's really... worth learning from. Because the ingredients are simple and easy to obtain, the taste is very rich.

Uncle Qin nodded secretly, vowing to carry forward this barbecue roll.

After everyone finished eating this dish, Lili and Xingxing gave everyone the last dish of the four major meats: grape meat puree.

Uncle Qin also participated in the cooking of this dish.

The production method was beyond his expectations - Tao Tao really picked a bunch of green grapes from her vines, washed them, peeled them, mashed them, and then had the pork belly chopped into pieces. Yes, add the stewed meat herbs and soy sauce, minced salt, minced garlic, fry the meat in a wok, and serve.

She found lettuce leaves, washed them, cut them into small round bowls with scissors, and added a small spoonful of sauteed meat puree, a little green grape puree to each small "vegetable" bowl, and then Sprinkle with toasted white sesame seeds.

This dish is done.

So Uncle Qin digs his heart out to try the taste of this dish.

Xing Xing took a piece with a small wooden spoon, put it in front of Uncle Qin, and said, "Uncle Qin, eat this with lettuce leaves."

Uncle Qin replied ok, couldn't wait to pick up the side dish "bowl", and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

what……

The fried meat puree has a strong meat aroma because of the stewed meat and herbs. It is accompanied by this grape puree... This grape puree is very sour, about 80% sour and two parts sweet, but because the weight is not much, it is eaten in the mouth, First taste the overwhelming meaty aroma, and then the grape puree is very good to relieve the greasy meat, bringing a hint of sour and fresh fruity taste!

Plus this chic serving mode! ! !

Uncle Qin can be sure that this dish will be favored by women and children.

This dish must be learned too!

After eating the four major meats, Lili and Xingxing brought over baked duck with dried basil and bamboo shoots, braised duck with fungus and sour radish, as well as wine-stuffed chicken and white-cut chicken.

Duck with dried bamboo shoots with basil has a unique flavor, and the highlight is the dried bamboo shoots.

There is a green bamboo forest growing near Tao Tao's house. The sweet bamboo shoots that emerge from the soil in spring have a faint sweet fragrance and are tender enough to be squeezed out of water. Fresh bamboo shoots made in spring are more delicious. After making dried bamboo shoots, the processing of soaking is easier than that of other varieties of bamboo shoots, and it is also easy to absorb the soup and meat flavor of the main dish, and the taste is extremely crisp and tender.

Uncle Qin was also the first time he had eaten such tender dried bamboo shoots, so he couldn't help but nodded.

As for the stewed duck meat with fungus and sour radish, Taotao actually wants to promote their own fungus - this fungus is particularly delicate and tender, and tastes great.

But when Uncle Qin ate it in his mouth, he felt that the taste of this fungus was close to that of cloud ear, but not as good as cloud ear, but not as amazing as sour radish.

The last two main courses are Braised Chicken with Red Dates and Astragalus and Boiled Chicken.

Braised chicken with red astragalus in wine, as the name suggests, is to use red dates and astragalus to braise chicken first, and put some sweet wine brewed by the farmhouse before serving.

Of course, this dish is also delicious, but it's not that Uncle Qin hasn't cooked a similar medicated diet, and he is looking forward to the last dish - white cut chicken.

He knew that since Tao Tao arranged this dish at the end, he must have great confidence in this dish.

really--

This poached chicken looks unremarkable.

The chicken is not big, and everyone here can only get two small pieces.

And it seems that this white-cut chicken, like the stewed meat, doesn't seem to have any seasonings at all.

Uncle Qin also participated in the whole cooking process, so he knew very well that there were no extra seasonings in this white-cut chicken, only three seasonings: ginger, green onions and stewed herbs.

When Uncle Qin took a piece of chicken and put it in his mouth, he understood - the selling point of this white-cut chicken, peach peach is not only the stewed meat and herbs, but also... the heat of steaming the chicken, and the salt Precise control of taste.

The chicken raised in Ruyi Village is only eight months old, not fat, with thin skin and tender meat. It may be because I have eaten more grass in the past few days, so I have just grown some fat and tender meat.

The chicken nuggets are eaten in the mouth, with the help of the stewed meat and herbs, of course it is fragrant and fragrant, but more importantly - the taste of the chicken is very tender, which means that the chef knows the heat very well and has a lot of steam. One minute more and the meat will burn out, and one minute less of steaming, the chicken will still be undercooked!

The mastery of the salty taste is also just right, neither salty nor bland, just to enhance the freshness.

However, because the chicken is tender, even the bones are crispy, and it shatters after chewing, and it is also freshened by the stewed herbs... There is no fishy smell at all, but it is very delicious.

Uncle Qin suddenly realized.

——The business of the restaurant, of course, can win the county party restaurant in the short term because of the stewed meat and herbs, but as the chief chef, he has an understanding of the ingredients, the control of the heat, and the precision of various seasonings. Matching is the best formula, and no one can learn it face to face or stealing from behind.

He looked at Tao Tao.

Tao Tao also looked at him, pursed her lips and smiled.

Uncle Qin understood that this was Tao Tao calling him! Because when he was working as a maid in the kitchen, he once said a few words about the difficult situation their state-run hotel at the railway station was facing.

At this time Taotao said again: "The hot pot is already cooked, let's try it while it's still hot."

Pear Pear and Xing Xing Bian serve everyone again.

The peach arrangement is used as the ingredients for hot dishes, and there are everything in a mess: white radish slices, dried bamboo shoots, fresh oyster mushrooms, Chinese cabbage, fresh fungus, potato chips...

But Taotao asked the sisters to give you several different flavors of dipping sauce: the first is the sour grape sauce with added salt, then the shrimp chili sauce made by themselves, and the tender **** and salt-flavored sesame oil sauce. , and a refreshing garlic brine.

I have to say that although the hot pot is all vegetarian, it is still delicious and nourishing to eat it with different sauces!

The crowd was full and full of praise for Taotao.

In fact, Taotao is not good at cooking. Today, as the master of the kitchen, she only plays a commanding role. She does not cook a single dish...

She quickly said: "Oh, I didn't do anything today, it's all the dishes made by the village chief's aunt, my mother, my sister-in-law, my sister and my sister. I haven't even gotten my hands wet, but it's not my credit! Kudos to my aunt, my mother, my sister-in-law, my sister, my sister!"

The village chief's wife quickly said, "Oh, but if it weren't for you, how would we know what dishes to go with!"

Tang Liren also smiled, "Okay, now in front of so many guests, I won't praise you, I will reward you with a boiled egg in the evening, okay?"

The village chief's wife said quickly, "Sister-in-law, are you too stingy?"

The fourth uncle said, "Baby, I will reward you with a pork knuckle when you look back, and you have done half of the two of us!"

The crowd burst into laughter!

Tao Tao also pursed her lips and smiled, but her eyes drifted to Song Zhi who was sitting in the room involuntarily.

Song Zhi was also smiling at her.

Tao Tao looked proud.

Uncle Qin stared at this pot of hot pot and fell into deep thought again.

Tao Tao gave him a lot of inspiration.

Winter is coming soon, he can develop a very cheap hot pot set menu, specializing in the endless side dishes, as long as a pot of big bone soup, with seven or eight kinds of vegetarian dishes and three or four kinds of dipping sauce plates, can be placed A table full of hot meals. All-material dishes, the price is not high, there must be a lot of people to eat!

Uncle Qin suddenly burst out laughing, "Tao Tao, Tao Tao, I'm all thanks to you this time! You are such a treasure... You have given me a lot of inspiration!"

Manager Xu looked at the leftovers on the table, touched his chubby belly, and said to Bai Zhenggan, "Secretary Bai, to tell you the truth, I'm the manager of the dignified state-run hotel, and I've seen the world! After coming to your house and having this meal... eh, I think I really haven't seen the world!"

With that said, Manager Xu pointed to the empty plates on the table, "Look, isn't it just chicken, duck, pork and bacon? The more rare ones are dried bamboo shoots and dried mushrooms... But I am I never imagined that these things are so delicious! So delicious!"

"Hey Taotao, Taotao, let me ask you, are you willing to go to the city and work in our hotel? I'll arrange a temporary job for you first, and then I'll have the opportunity to become a regular later. Would you like to?" Manager Xu asked.

Everyone present was stunned.

Song Zhi especially.

He stared at Manager Xu with an unhappy expression on his face: Why do people always want to destroy him and Taotao? It seems that in the past few days, I have to propose to Mom and Dad...

Bai Zhengqian and Tang Liren were also very surprised.

——If you can go to work in the city, and have the opportunity to become a regular worker with an iron job, what a dignified sight it would be!

However, to let the silly daughter who has just regained consciousness for less than a year leave him?

The couple felt heartbroken again.

For a time, the two were afraid of missing this opportunity, but also afraid that Tao Tao would really agree with each other... they couldn't help but struggle.

Taotao pursed her lips and said to Manager Xu, "Uncle Xu, I will answer this question later. I want to ask Uncle Qin a question first... Uncle Qin, which dish are you most satisfied with today?"

Uncle Qin said without hesitation: "Baiqi chicken."

Tao Tao's face is full of pride, "My third sister made the white cut chicken!"

Bai Lili was stunned for a moment, blushing a little, "I, me, me... that's what Taotao asked me to do."

Taotao looked at her third sister and said seriously: "But, the third sister applied the salt, and the third sister watched the heat. I only said one sentence from beginning to end, I want to be a white cut chicken!"

Uncle Qin looked up and down Bai Lili.

——When he was helping in the kitchen just now, he also saw that Tao Tao's sister was the new force in cooking. Taotao only spoke one mouth, Papapa's command, and everyone else was busy washing and cutting vegetables, only Baili Li, busy from beginning to end.

All the dishes are made of white pears.

As Manager Xu said, Taotao is better than being flexible in the brain... At this point, Taotao does not actually have an advantage. Because she is a farm girl, she can really bring out her innovation in farm ingredients. In the back kitchen of a state-run restaurant, there are hundreds of ingredients, and Tao Tao can't cook, and may not recognize all those ingredients. ...

The most important thing is that Uncle Qin also has a deep reluctance in his heart - if Tao Tao goes, what else is there to do with him? Could it be that he is old enough to follow Taotao's command?

Fortunately, Tao Tao can't cook.

Uncle Qin secretly rejoiced in his heart.

But Lili is different. She is very good at cooking, has an inexplicable intuition and precision in cooking food, and she is very diligent and sexual.
