I married a playboy at the beginning, and I changed my fate by eating delicious food
Chapter 95 Returning to the old business
After much deliberation, Xu Si decided to pick up the lunch box business again.
She still positions her restaurant as a small one, not as good as those high-end ones.
The first is fame, the second is venue, and the third is funding.
They have only opened their store for three months, but they still won by virtue of their novelty. Compared with those restaurants that have been open for a long time, they are like an ant trying to stop a chariot and have no chance of winning.
If their position is really threatened, with their current strength, they will have no power to resist.
Therefore, the best survival strategy at the moment is to stay put and develop slowly.
She made a temporary plan for herself: to get out of the county town in three years, and out of the state capital in five years. The provincial capital would be the final goal. After all, they were not allowed to enter the capital.
If there are any unexpected situations later, adjustments will be made.
They are very familiar with the whole process of selling lunch boxes; after all, it is their history of making a fortune.
So after making the decision, we started the next day.
An Yu has been doing preparatory work during this period and has gained a good understanding of the situation in the store. He knows exactly where everything is placed and what function each one has.
His sword skills are pretty good, probably because of his personality. He is able to be patient, and it mainly depends on his hard work.
Xu Si planned to let him learn to cook formally starting today, so that when he can stand on his own in the future, he won't have to work so hard.
When An Yu heard the news, he was very excited and repeatedly assured that he would do his best and not let Master Xu down.
In the past, due to transportation and traffic issues, they only made three dishes. Now they don’t have to worry about these and can let go and prepare six dishes, three meat dishes and three vegetarian dishes.
First, we customized 7 different menus, which means 42 dishes, and started a new round every 7 days.
By following the routine in this way, guests don't have to worry about the daily dishes and will have an idea in mind, so they will naturally consider what they want to eat in advance.
Thinking back to when she was in high school, every time during the self-study session before dinner, she couldn't calm down until the last ten minutes. She would start thinking about what dishes would be available that day and which one she would eat. When the bell rang, she would rush out like an arrow.
It is the only hope in this miserable life.
Today is the first day. After everyone helped prepare the dishes, Xu Si took over the cooking while An Yu watched from the side.
Put the chopped screw peppers directly into the pot, add half a spoonful of salt, stir-fry until the surface is charred and serve.
Then she brought over the sliced pork and said, "Look, there are techniques for cutting meat. Cutting cattle and sheep horizontally, cutting pigs vertically, and cutting chickens diagonally. There are also techniques for cooking."
As she spoke, she poured in some oil, put the meat slices in, and stir-fried them over low heat.
"Did you notice what I did in the process?"
An Yu was a little nervous, his eyes were full of confusion, and his face turned red in an instant.
He had been watching carefully just now, but he felt that it was just a normal step and there was nothing to say.
But since Master Xu asked this, there must be something different. He thought about it for a while but couldn't think of an answer.
Xu Si didn't hear him speak, he just looked up at him, and when he saw his appearance, he immediately categorized it.
The typical look of someone who is asked a question but doesn't know the answer.
She felt like laughing for some reason, but was afraid that An Yu would be embarrassed, so she lowered her head and began to explain directly, "It's like a hot pot with cold oil."
An Yu then realized that he had always thought that cooking was just about adding oil and then starting to stir-fry.
"Is there any explanation?" Xu Si's natural attitude also made him relax.
“This will prevent sticking.”
Frying the pork slices until they are charred is the key to making it delicious. Then add garlic and chili peppers to enhance the flavor, and a little soy sauce to color it. When the aroma comes out, put in the fried screw peppers, pour in the sauce prepared in advance, stir-fry evenly over high heat, and the stir-fried pork is ready.
It smells spicy and fragrant, I can’t imagine how delicious it would be if mixed with rice.
Then she made sweet and sour pork and ants climbing a tree.
You can use chicken or pork to make sweet and sour pork tenderloin, but she chose chicken because she always felt that chicken tasted more tender.
The vegetarian dishes included stir-fried cabbage, stir-fried cauliflower with tomatoes, and eggplant with fish sauce.
Six large pots are neatly placed on the table at the door, steaming hot, and you can notice them as soon as you enter.
"Hey, Miss Xu, what is this?"
"This is the lunch box we launched. Would you like to try it?"
The person who asked the question originally had no appetite, so he planned to eat some cold noodles.
At this moment, the smell of the food actually whetted my appetite, so I agreed immediately, "Okay, how much is this?"
"It's charged by the spoon. I'll give you whatever you want to eat. One price for meat and one price for vegetables."
The man immediately ordered a small dish of stir-fried meat, stir-fried cabbage and eggplant with fish sauce.
The plates previously used to sell meals at the pier have been unearthed.
The only thing that has changed is the rice. People who can afford to eat in the restaurant are not that poor, so they naturally can't eat coarse rice anymore. They simply steam all polished rice, at 2 cents per serving.
Although the lunch boxes were launched, the previous business did not stop completely and was still operating at one-third of the usual volume.
Most people are willing to try new foods, so the boxed lunches are the first to sell out.
Mr. Qian and his wife also came today. It is not good for the stomach of the elderly to eat cold food often, so they can only come to eat every few days.
As soon as I learned that the box lunch business had resumed, I rushed over to eat.
In the evening, Xu Si asked An Yu to choose a dish and try it out.
"Can I do it?" An Yu was a little hesitant to try, fearing that he might not be able to do it well.
"I'm here with you, just do what you want." Xu Si was very domineering.
"Then I'll make fried cauliflower with tomatoes."
This is the simplest one. If something goes wrong, the cost is not high and he doesn’t feel that much pressure.
"Okay." This time it was Xu Si's turn to watch from the side.
Cut the tomatoes into crosses, blanch them in boiling water, peel them easily, cut some into small pieces and some into large pieces.
After the water boils, add the cauliflower and blanch it, then remove and drain the water.
Heat the pan with cold oil, add onion, ginger and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant, add small pieces of tomatoes to stir-fry until the juice comes out, add cauliflower and large pieces of tomatoes, and finally add salt, sugar and soy sauce to season.
An Yu's expression was always serious, as if he was doing some experiment.
The movements gradually became natural from being stiff at the beginning.
After finishing it, he smiled and looked at Xu Si expectantly.
"Yes, that's it. Very good."
She once didn’t understand why there could be kitchen killers. Isn’t it just cutting vegetables and stir-frying? There are only a few kinds of seasonings. Is it really that difficult?
Later she discovered that cooking might actually require some talent.
She has a colleague who is very thin. During a physical examination, she was found to be malnourished. The doctor told her to eat less takeout and eat better food, but she said she has always cooked herself.
Xu Si found this unbelievable, so when the other party invited him to her house for dinner, he readily agreed.
Right from the start, the other party made a dish of black fungus, milk and onion rice, which silenced Xu Sigan.
These things can appear in the stomach at the same time, but never in the mouth at the same time.
With her persuasion, her colleagues finally decided to cook some ordinary dishes. As a result, right in front of her, although the steps were normal, the taste of the dishes was not right, which was amazing.
