Food starts with noodles

Xu Zhuo opened a relatively popular stand-alone game, and there was a burst of bombardment in it, which made up for the regret that there were no fireworks on New Year's Eve.

The next morning, the two drove to the courtyard along the slightly empty road.

The daytime traffic in Beijing is better during the New Year, because many people have returned to their hometowns for the New Year, so there is no traffic jam on the road, which makes people feel unreal.

When they arrived at the courtyard, there were only a group of men left in the family. The two old ladies took Chen Guifang, Yao Meixiang and Pang Lihua to burn incense at Lama Temple before dawn.

Although I can't grab the first pillar of incense, I still have to pay my respects in the past.

After all, it's tradition.

There are only a group of men left in the family, so breakfast is not so particular.

Yu Peiyong brought out yesterday's leftovers and warmed them up, and cooked some dumplings and glutinous rice balls by the way, so that there are sweet and salty ones, and everyone can choose freely.

While having breakfast, Xu Zhuo had nothing to do and started the live broadcast.

For the Chinese New Year, he originally wanted to make up for this month's live broadcast, but he didn't expect that after the live broadcast started, many people would click on it.

Well, everyone thinks Chinese New Year is boring.

Especially after the New Year's Eve dinner, it seems that all expectations are gone.

After more people watched the live broadcast, Xu Zhuo was embarrassed to continue drinking for a long time, and introduced the dishes in front of him with a smile.

When he introduced that what he ate was leftovers from last night, there were suddenly more bullet screens in the live broadcast room.

"Hey, do people with hundreds of millions of dollars eat leftovers?"

"It's true in the world, my family is also leftovers from the New Year's Eve dinner today."

"My family is the same. There are a lot of leftovers. It is estimated that I will eat them at least until the fourth day of the lunar new year."

"Isn't it too optimistic to eat until the fourth day of the lunar new year? Later, various relatives come and walk around, and each time they have to prepare a large table of dishes, there will only be more leftovers."

"Yes, yes, it feels like the whole Spring Festival is just eating leftovers."

……

Everyone talked about the leftovers for the Spring Festival, and the heat in the live broadcast room quickly rose.

After breakfast, the old man and the others were going to go out for a walk, Yu Keke planned to find the old lady and the others, Xu Zhuo had nothing to do, got into the car with Xiongzi in his arms, and was about to go to the store to have a look, and by the way, send a message to the employees who went to work today Chinese New Year red envelope.

While driving, Xu Zhuo didn't turn off the live broadcast.

He deliberately put a small tripod for the car on the driver's platform in front of the co-pilot, so that the live broadcast would not be delayed, and his whole body could be photographed at the same time.

In the past, when the live broadcast time was not enough at the end of the month, Xu Zhuo would spend a period of time like this to increase the time.

But today, because of the presence of Xiongzi, this method is a bit unworkable.

Because Xiong Zai was crawling around, he also deliberately jumped to the side of the co-pilot and dangled in front of the live camera.

The fans in the live broadcast room naturally love such a naive little guy, even when Xu Zhuo was talking, they even asked him to drive well, so as not to delay everyone's petting.

When we arrived at the store, He Guoan had already arrived.

Originally, he was off today, but after all, he had been a chef all his life, and he didn't cook at home at noon, but went to a relative's house for dinner, so he had nothing to do, so he came to the store for a stroll.

Look around again, lest something is missed and cause any accident.

Well, the store is not that big now, but it's not just accidents if there are sundries in the dishes, or if the diners feel unwell.

Wrong taste, uneven raw and cooked food, wrong seasoning of dishes, etc., as long as customers study carefully, they are all accidents that can easily lead to word-of-mouth overturning.

This kind of thing, with the participation of caring people, can easily cause a storm.

Although the customers who should come to consume will still come, those who dance happily on the Internet may not be able to afford the dishes here, but this kind of dishonorable things should be minimized as much as possible.

This is the same as the black material of those stars, maybe it's nothing at ordinary times.

Once you encounter any limelight, or gather together to make a lot, these will become deadly arrows.

When Xu Zhuo came to the store with Xiong Zai in one hand and a selfie stick in the other, the employees on the morning shift had just had breakfast and were counting the number of rooms booked at noon and the types of packages.

During the Chinese New Year, the store launched a table-packing activity. Those who book a private room can use the price of [-]% off the usual dishes to win the table-packing set menu launched by the store.

The set menu is not static, you can flexibly adjust the menu according to your own needs.

This kind of table-packing dishes is simply to package and sell the dishes in the store. Some customers who want to eat here originally planned to order eight dishes, but because of this table-packing, it may be increased to twelve dishes. or more.

Chinese people like to save face, especially on occasions like New Year's Eve dinner, and they hope that there are as many dishes on the table as possible.

It doesn't matter if you can't finish it. If you have more than enough every year, it's a good sign if you can't finish it.

The New Year's Eve dinner launched in the store last night is also this series, which is welcomed by many customers.

For example, Lao Yangtou’s family ordered the 8888 set meal in the store, a large table of 24 dishes, including cold meat and hot stir-fry, steamed fruit plate, etc., all of which are available.

And as a regular customer, when old man Yang left, the store even specially gave a snack gift box to one person, which made old man Yang very satisfied.

After Xiong Zai came to the store, the warm air from the air conditioner instantly refreshed him.

The little guy struggled to jump off Xu Zhuo's body, followed the smell and went straight to the aquarium by the back kitchen door.

Well, the strong fishy smell of those aquatic products instantly excited Xiong Zai.

There are a lot of aquatic products here, including freshwater fish, seawater fish, and even some pelagic fish. They are all swimming happily in their respective aquariums at the moment. .

Xu Zhuo didn't care about it. When he came to the front desk, the girl at the front desk immediately took out a handbag from the cabinet below. After opening it, it was full of red envelopes.

These red envelopes were prepared by Xu Zhuo on the phone yesterday, in order to distribute red packets to everyone today.

He continued the live broadcast with his mobile phone in one hand, and his handbag in the other hand, and began to give out red envelopes to everyone.

Every time he saw someone, he enthusiastically handed over a red envelope, and then sent a greeting.

"Happy New Year, Happy Year of the Ox!"

Chapter 1621 Lantern Shadow Beef

During the few days of Chinese New Year, Xu Zhuo can finally rest.

When he has nothing to do, he pets cats, plays games, turns on the live streaming water to see how long it takes when he is bored, and sometimes even plays games live for a while.

Anyway, he can't do commercial live broadcasts now, so he is very relaxed.

Xiong Zai has already been taken home by Xu Zhuo. Anyway, no matter the courtyard house or the apartment he and Yu Keke live in are all underfloor heating, the little guy will not be wronged anywhere.

And here, Xiongzai is relatively safer, because it can't sneak into the yard to have fun.

After Xiong Zai moved in, Xu Zhuo quickly got a dryer at home.

Well, although this little guy eats raw flesh and blood now, he still has to eat some snacks.

For example, beef jerky and small fish.

Anyway, this kind of food is easy to prepare, just change the knife and put it in the dryer, and then don't worry about it, it's very simple.

Since he is relatively free recently, when he is at home, almost everything will be broadcast live.

When drying the jerky for Xiong Zai, the whole process was broadcast live.

After all, there are not many live broadcast content now, and when the jerky is broadcast live, you can also bring the bear boy over to interact.

This little guy is very popular in the live broadcast room. When you live broadcast with it, the rewards and activity in the live broadcast room will increase significantly.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Xu Zhuo took a piece of beef tendon he had just bought, and prepared to soak the slices and bake some beef jerky for Xiong Zai.

I have to work starting tomorrow, and I won't have so much time to spend with the little guy in the future, so Xu Zhuo plans to make more beef jerky to save the little guy from having no snacks to eat.

It happened to be a little longer to pull Xiong Zai to live broadcast for a while, so as to increase the popularity and attention of the live broadcast room.

A few years ago, due to the frequent advertising of Qifan, the attention of the live broadcast room has declined slightly.

In the past few days of the Chinese New Year, because Xu Zhuo has been live broadcasting for a long time, he has become the most diligent anchor on the entire platform, and the number of attention in the live broadcast room has also increased a lot.

When Xu Zhuo first started cutting beef, the people in the live broadcast room started booing, wanting to see Xu Zhuo show off his knife skills.

Xu Zhuo hasn't been cooking live broadcasts recently, and now he suddenly picks up a kitchen knife to cut meat. Everyone is curious whether the knife skills have regressed.

Xu Zhuo had nothing to do when he was idle, and the fans were so enthusiastic, they also wanted to try his knife skills.

He put the beef tendon on the chopping board, replaced it with a professional slicing knife, pressed the meat piece with his left hand, and held the kitchen knife in his right. After heating it, he began to cut it.

After the fascia is removed from the beef tendon, all the rest is uniform muscle. If it is cut into the thickness of the usual dried meat or fried meat slices, there is no problem.

But if you want to cut it thinner, it will be a bit difficult.

Because the beef is too soft and the muscles are relatively thick, the kitchen knife will slip to one side if you are not careful when cutting, resulting in uneven thickness of the cut beef.

Although the sliced ​​beef at the end was okay and the fans thought it was good, Xu Zhuo was a little dissatisfied.

He thinks he should be able to cut thinner beef.

After all, the level of knife skills is so high, but he can't even cut beef well, which is a bit outrageous.

He took his mobile phone and searched for dishes that sliced ​​​​beef into thin slices, planning to go back and learn to improve his knife skills.

Then he searched out a snack from Sichuan.

Light shadow beef.

Lantern shadow, that is, shadow puppetry, uses light to project silhouettes of people made of animal skin or cardboard onto the curtain.

The use of "lamp shadow" to call this kind of beef shows that the meat is so thin that it can reveal objects under the light, just like the curtain in a shadow play.

After reading the introduction, Xu Zhuo looked at the relevant pictures again, and decided to learn this snack, so that fans can experience his knife skills.

Thinking of this, Xu Zhuo took his mobile phone and called Wei Junming who was still in the capital.

"Godfather, I want to learn Dengying Beef, can you teach me?"

In the past few days in the capital, Wei Junming visited some old friends, and also followed the old man to attend some gatherings of chefs.

At the beginning, I thought it was very interesting to participate in this kind of occasion, but after a long time, I felt a little boring.

After receiving Xu Zhuo's call, Wei Junming immediately hailed a taxi and came to Xu Zhuo's house.

Well, he's leaving tomorrow, and he also wants to teach Xu Zhuo some skills.

This lamp shadow beef dish just fits his idea.

After arriving at Xu Zhuo's side, Wei Junming looked at the beef tendon meat that Xu Zhuo had prepared and said, "If you want to cut the beef into thin slices, you can't cut fresh beef, you have to freeze it, so that the cut beef will be as thin as a cicada's wing. .”

Wei Junming is no stranger to live broadcasts, he greeted the fans in the live broadcast room, and then began to teach Xu Zhuo how to make Dengying beef.

The difficulty in making Dengying beef a big dish is to cut it.

Not only should it be sliced ​​thinly, but also the sliced ​​meat should be cut as large as possible, so that it will be enjoyable and delicious to eat.

It's too late for now, it's live broadcasting after all.

So Xu Zhuo called Guo Xingwang and asked him to bring some frozen beef tendon from the store, so that he could continue to make it within half an hour.

If you put it in the refrigerator, it will be in the afternoon anyway.

Xu Zhuo and Wei Junming didn't mind the longer time, but the fans watching the live broadcast couldn't wait.

After Guo Xingwang came, he didn't make it immediately, because the beef in the store was too frozen, so if he cut it now, he could only cut it into beef rolls suitable for hot pot.

If you want to cut into beef slices, you have to wait a little longer.

But the few people were not idle at the moment, because Wei Junming had already put the beef tendon that Xu Zhuo tried to cut just now into the pot and started to stew.

I plan to teach Xu Zhuo to cook a derivative dish of Dengying Beef.

Light shadow shredded beef.

Like Dengying Beef, this snack is also a famous snack in Sichuan.

Moreover, compared with Dengying Beef, the production threshold of Dengying Beef Shredded is much lower.

Even people with no cooking skills, as long as they strictly follow the tutorial, they can make this snack perfectly.

The method of Dengying shredded beef is very simple. First, put the whole piece of beef tendon into clear water, add spices such as green onion, ginger cooking wine, dark soy sauce, pepper star anise, and fragrant leaves to start cooking.

Cook for about half an hour, and after the tendon meat is completely broken, take it out of the pot.

Put it on the chopping board and beat it with the back of a knife or a meat hammer.

until the beef is loose.
