call……

Finally made it.

When it was just cooked, all the nerves in Lin Xu's body were tense.

Now that the dishes were served, I felt relieved and felt the fatigue on my body.

He focused his attention on the bowl of mapo chicken cake that was red in color and exuded a rich and spicy flavor on the workbench. After focusing his attention, a line of text immediately appeared in front of him:

[A mapo chicken cake made of chicken cake, beef cubes, bean paste and other ingredients, grade: perfect]

Hooray, success all at once.

Ordinarily, we should open a bottle of champagne to celebrate.

Lin Xu blinked and the prompt disappeared.

He was just about to taste how delicious the perfect Mapo Chicken Cake was when a system prompt sounded in his mind:

"The host has successfully made a perfect innovative Mapo dish and completed the skill trial task. The host has permanently obtained the perfect cooking technique - Mapo Tofu. Congratulations to the host."

"The host successfully made Mapo Chicken Cake that is above the excellence level, completed the side task [Dish Innovation], and won a perfect level unpopular Sichuan cuisine draw. Do you want to draw the draw immediately?"

Two beeps sounded in succession, making Lin Xu feel relieved.

Finally finished.

Just as he was sighing with emotion, Wei Qian, Zhuang Yizhou and the others started shouting in admiration:

"I'll go! Isn't this chicken cake too tender?"

"I regret it so much. I should have started a live broadcast just now. Such a perfect dish should be witnessed by netizens."

"It melts in your mouth, so delicious!"

“Fresh, tender, numb, spicy, and mouth-watering, this dish has all the characteristics of Mapo Tofu, it’s so enjoyable!”

Wei Gan and the others each held a bowl of rice, holding a spoon in their hands, scooping a piece of chicken cake onto the rice like eating Mapo tofu, and then ate it with the rice.

Even though my mouth was burning and I was breathing heavily, I still couldn't help but keep eating.

"Boss, here's the rice, you can try it too."

The driver brought two bowls of rice, each with a spoon on top.

Obviously, everyone knows the rules for eating mapo tofu - eat it with a spoon.

The ingredients in this dish are all minced, so you don’t have to worry about eating whole Sichuan peppercorns, nor do you have to worry about eating watercress and large pieces of chili peppers. You can eat whatever you scoop up.

In this case, it is normal for rice to be unable to withstand it.

Lin Xu took the bowl, used a spoon to scoop up a piece of chicken cake covered in thick soup from the mapo chicken cake full of red oil, blew on it, and then put it into his mouth.

"Damn, it's so hot!"

Although I was mentally prepared, my mouth was still burned the moment I entered the mouth.

The moment it is scalded, the numbing, spicy, and fragrant flavors rush into your mouth at the same time, and your taste buds are instantly opened. When you enter the mouth, your tongue can clearly feel the tenderness of the surface of the chicken cake.

After all, it is made by thickening it three times, and the tenderness is very obvious.

Taking a bite, the chicken cake has higher calories, but the unique umami flavor of chicken also bursts out, and it is still very clear in the spicy and fragrant taste.

With the spicy flavor, the chicken cake appears tenderer, fresher and more delicious.

It gives people a feeling of being out of mud but not stained.

This texture and taste make the whole dish more charming.

No wonder Wei Gan and the others are like this. This dish really brings out a new feeling that Mapo Tofu doesn't have.

After eating, take a bite of rice and it will be so satisfying.

After tasting the chicken cake, Lin Xu scooped up some beef cubes and tasted it.

The beef was dehydrated with salt and marinated in cooking wine. It was severely dehydrated. Even though beef bone soup was added after drying, the beef still maintained its crispy texture.

When you eat it in your mouth, it forms a strong contrast with the soft and tender chicken cake.

In this dish, the crispiness of the beef cubes and the tenderness of the chicken cakes, the freshness of the chicken cakes and the spiciness of the soup, the greasiness of the red oil and the freshness of the minced garlic are all in sharp contrast.

It’s only natural that the entire dish tastes delicious and addictive.

Lin Xu scooped some more chicken cake into the bowl, mixed it with rice and ate it.

It’s still enjoyable to eat this way.

"Lin Xu, are we introducing a new dish in the store?"

Wei Gan sat down and asked while eating.

Others also turned their faces curiously, wanting to hear the boss's answer.

Lin Xu took a mouthful of rice and said with a smile:

"I can't get it. Steamed chicken cake is so difficult, and you have to pound the minced chicken by hand. How much do you have to sell this dish to make back the money?"

The mapo chicken cake cannot be served.

But with Mapo Tofu, there’s no problem.

You can even make some of the Mapo jelly that I thought of before.

Lin Xu said to the car boy:

"Starting from tomorrow, the store will start selling new Mapo Tofu. Remember to buy more gypsum tofu to make Mapo Tofu. The tender tofu will taste better."

Silk tofu can give dishes two contrasting textures: crispy and soft.

If you use Lao Doufu, there will be no such comparison.

I just heard from the boss that the store does not serve Mapo Chicken Cake. Everyone felt a little disappointed, because this means that they will not be able to eat this delicious dish often in the future.

But now that they heard that Mapo Tofu was going to be served, everyone was excited again.

Mapo tofu is also available. This kind of meal is low-cost and suitable for the store.

Wei Gan took the rice and discussed with Che Zai the ingredients he would buy tomorrow:

"In addition to tofu, don't forget to buy more garlic sprouts, beef, and, by the way, some beef ribs. Now that we've made it, let's make this dish perfect."

In the restaurants here in the capital, there are quite a few shops selling Mapo Tofu.

But not many people really want to add beef bone soup.

Now that Lin Kee wants to serve this dish, let’s go straight to the ceiling level. When people think of this dish, they will subconsciously think of Lin Kee Food.

And compared to other dishes, Mapo Tofu is really synonymous with low cost and high profit.

The cost of a dish is only a few yuan, but the price can be sold for dozens of yuan.

Such a high profit is more profitable than many meat dishes. More importantly, it can create a word-of-mouth effect and drive more customers to come to dine.

In short, there are many benefits.

Lin Xu said:

"Ma Po Tofu must be served in a bowl, don't get confused."

He scooped some more vegetables into the bowl and ate all the rice in the bowl.

A small bowl of rice was eaten before I could eat it. The rice-killing properties of mapo dishes are really powerful.

After putting down the bowl and spoon, Lin Xu looked at the remaining chicken cake and said:

"Let's make these chicken cakes tonight. Let's try them for everyone... It's really troublesome to make these chicken cakes. Master Zhu, is it so difficult to make fish cakes?"

Zhu Yong, who was pulling rice, quickly replied:

"It's not difficult. There is no fascia in the fish. You can just scrape the meat. It's easier than making chicken cakes... If you want to eat it, I can make some for everyone to try."

Zhuang Yizhou immediately suggested:

"Then we'll make it into a mapo dish. Mapo fish cakes will make you greedy when you hear them."

According to this idea, you can even make Mapo shrimp cake, Mapo pig cake, Mapo sheep cake and other dishes in the future, which is quite interesting to think about.

After taking a sip of water, Lin Xugang was about to go downstairs to find Dundun to try out the perfect unpopular Sichuan dish. Suddenly he thought that the refresh time for the special item bar in the Points Mall had come, so he clicked on the Points Mall to check out the new ones. What are the special props?

If possible, take advantage of the extra points and redeem them directly.

This way it can be used at any time.

Clicking on the special item bar, the damn countdown finally disappeared, and the page has been refreshed.

After looking past the ruthless iron hand, fortune-seeking artifact and discerning eye that he had already received, Lin Xu scrolled down for a while and finally found the special item that had been refreshed this time.

[Hand is a scale: a special prop that can accurately measure the weight of items, a favorite of pastry chefs. Redemption price: 2888888 points]

What?

Accurately measure the weight of items?

In the past, I had always heard that a certain hawker had super accurate hands and could tell the weight of a dish just by mentioning it. I never thought that I could do it myself. This was a surprise!

With this special skill, in the future, when making pasta or other things, I will no longer need to put an electronic scale next to me to weigh and measure. I can just weigh it with my hands and the weight will be clear.

This is simply awesome.

No wonder the introduction specifically includes the phrase "pastry chef's favorite".

As a young chef with dual skills in magic and martial arts... Oh no, as a young chef with dual skills in red and white crime, this special prop must be exchanged for it.

As for the price of 2.88 million, it is acceptable.

Although it is one million more expensive than the Discriminating Eye, there are quite a lot of points due to inflation now, and the system understands that the price will increase accordingly.

Thinking of this, Lin Xu chose to exchange without hesitation.

"Do you want to spend 2,888,888 points to redeem a special item called a scale?"

After pressing the redemption button of the Eye of Discrimination, the system prompts sounded in my mind.

"yes!"

After the redemption is confirmed, the system points will be automatically deducted.

Then, the prompt sounded again:

"The exchange is successful. Congratulations to the host for getting a special prop called a scale. This prop can accurately measure the weight of items. The current measurement error range is ±25 grams. It can be upgraded by spending 1888888 points. After the upgrade, the measurement error range is ±5 grams. Is it right? Upgrade special props?"

Lin Xu:? ? ? ? ? ?

Why the hell did I spend 2.88 million points on props, only to end up with a semi-finished product?

This system actually uses the routines of krypton gold games so skillfully... It's really good to learn and learn to do bad!

He was full of anger, but in the end he had no choice but to spend 1,888,888 points to upgrade.

The reason is very simple. Without the upgrade, the measurement error range of both hands is only half a tael. This error is not a problem for ordinary pastries, but for the most delicate pastries, the error of 25 grams is too big.

If you want to use it more conveniently, you can only choose to upgrade and reduce the error range to 5 grams. According to Chinese weighing, it is the weight of one dollar, which is the smallest unit in Chinese weighing.

The conversion of Chinese weighing is very simple. One pound is equal to ten taels, and one tael is equal to ten qian.

As for the rest, it basically only exists in theory.

Even money-level weighing only applies to Chinese herbal medicine and precious metals, which are difficult to access in daily life.

"After spending 1,888,888 points, the special prop [hand is a scale] was successfully upgraded. The host's hands can measure the weight within 5 grams. Congratulations to the host."

Don't congratulate, I don't want to hear these two words.

Lin Xu looked helpless.

I originally planned to spend 1.88 million points to redeem special props, but I didn’t expect that the special props not only increased by one million, but also required additional money to upgrade and unlock them.

This is simply a bandit, worse than a bandit!

Originally, I had over 10 million points and was enjoying my life endlessly. However, today I spent 2 million to buy the Mapo Tofu technique, and then spent nearly 5 million to buy special props. My points instantly shrank a lot.

Just when I was feeling annoyed, the system prompt sounded again:

"The host spent more than 5 million points today, completed the hidden task [Squandering Millions], and won a draw for perfect stuffing. Do you want to draw a draw now?"

Hey, is this because I feel sorry for myself, so I thought of making amends?

Lin Xu came to his senses and walked slowly downstairs. Since there was another lottery, let's just take it.

Only the fillings are drawn, and there are no delicious fillings.

It was perfunctory to the extreme.

When I was going down the stairs, I happened to bump into Shu Yun:

"What were you yelling about upstairs just now?"

"Oh, I steamed some chicken cakes and made them spicy like Mapo tofu. They are eating them right now. If you want to try them, you should be in time now..."

Before Lin Xu finished speaking, Shu Yun trotted upstairs.

With such high heels, I'm not afraid of spraining my feet.

Are all people who are trying to lose weight so desperate for good food?

When he came to the service desk, he saw Dundun crawling out of his hut with his head tilted up and looking around halfway.

"What's going on? Why do you look frightened?"

Lin Xu rubbed the little guy's head, a little curious.

Given Dundun's status in the store, no one should dare to bully it.

Song Tiantian, who was sitting at the service desk, said:

"Mr. Chen didn't know what kind of happy event he encountered today. As soon as he came down from the second floor, he hugged Dundun and rubbed him for a while. Mr. Shu couldn't stop him. He looked so scared of the child... Mr. Shu and I couldn't coax him for a long time. Dare to come out."

What's going on with this aunt?

How to repay kindness with hatred?

I got so much food for you, but you turned around and dealt with my son.

Lin Xu held Dundun in his arms:

"Don't worry, don't worry. Your idiot aunt is just teasing you. She doesn't have a boyfriend in her thirties, that's why she is so fussy. If someone is looking after her all day long, she will definitely be kept in check."

He was just teasing his sister-in-law for having too much energy and nowhere to vent it, but Dundun's eyes lit up in his arms, and the previous sluggishness was instantly wiped away.

I hugged Dundun and walked around on the first floor. I also went to the braised food department to look at the braised food prepared by Xu Xinhua. After Dundun's mental state had completely calmed down, the lottery started.

"Congratulations to the host for winning the perfect unpopular Sichuan dish - Snowflake Chicken Nao (nào)!"

"Congratulations to the host for getting the perfect filling - flower ham!"

Two beeps sounded, leaving Lin Xu in surprise again.

Flower ham?

Isn’t this the representative flavor of Yunnan-style mooncakes?

Dundun is really awesome. I originally thought it would be good to get a steamed stuffed bun stuffed with dumpling stuffing, but my son got the chance and directly took the signboard of Yunnan-style mooncakes.

As for the snowflake chicken soup, this is really unpopular.

It is so unpopular that most Sichuan chefs have never heard of it, and it is even unavailable in restaurants. Basically, it can only be seen in various food competitions or food promotion videos.

The so-called nao (nào) refers to mud, that is, the chicken is made into a mud shape.

This dish is very similar to hibiscus chicken slices and chickpea pudding, except that the hibiscus chicken slices are fried first and then returned to the pot, while the chickpea pudding is formed directly in the clear soup.

This Snowflake Chicken Chowder is fried directly in the pot.

The method of stir-frying is somewhat similar to that of San Bu Guo.

But San Bu Guo means frying the ingredients into a ball, and when this dish is done, it will look like brilliant snowflakes.

The snow-white color, light taste, and snowflake shape make this dish full of poetry.

Snowflake chicken noodle is more delicious when eaten with diced ham. Since making flower mooncakes also requires ham, Lin Xu simply called Lao Huang and asked him to send a high-quality Xuanwei ham.

Jinhua ham is too salty and over-marinated. It is suitable for stewing soup, but not suitable for stuffing.

Relatively speaking, Xuanwei ham produced in southern Yunnan is better. It is not so salty, but has a fresh and slightly sweet taste. It is naturally suitable as a filling for flower cakes.

"In addition to Xuanwei ham, get me some flower sauce made from fresh flowers."

Lao Huang became interested as soon as he heard this:

"Xiao Lin, are you planning to make mooncakes filled with flowers and ham? Can you make more? My wife is from southern Yunnan, and she talks about this every day..."

Lin Xu smiled and said:

"No problem, I can just do more. It won't be a hassle."

"Brother Lin is so refreshing. Let's do this. This time, the ham and flower jam will be given to you for free. Brother is so open-minded, and we, Lao Huang, can't be stingy anymore!"

After speaking, he lowered his voice and said:

"Brother, I have some Moringa seeds here that I brought back from southern Yunnan. A friend of mine said they are helpful for men. I will bring you some when I deliver ham later. You can try it."

Lin Xu:? ? ? ? ? ? ?

What's the meaning?

I heard that Moringa seeds can strengthen the waist and nourish the kidneys. Why are you giving me this when you have nothing to do?

But a friend of yours said...that friend is you, right?

It was about reputation. Lin Xu originally planned to refuse sternly, but thinking that his senior brother seemed to be lacking this thing, he said:

"Then bring some here. I'm of no use. I'm in good health. But it's a friend of mine who has been looking for warm and tonic ingredients recently..."

friend?

Old Huang on the other end of the phone was immediately amused.

It turns out that Brother Lin is also a person who likes to be friends with him.

He laughed and said:

"Since it's for a friend, I'll bring you some more."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Xu sent a WeChat message to his senior brother:

"Lao Huang wants to give me moringa seeds. Senior brother, do you need them? If not, I will give them to others."

"Yes, yes, yes, a friend of mine is asking around. Just keep it for me. I'll pick it up during dinner."

Tsk, we are friends again.

After carrying Dundun back to the service counter, Lin Xu saw Shu Yun holding a small bowl of rice and eating the mapo chicken cake inside with a spoon.

"By the way, boss, your express delivery just arrived. It seems to be some kind of mold."

Shu Yun took out a courier box covered with tape from the cabinet at the service desk and handed it over. Lin Xu put down Dundun, took it, took a look, and said immediately:

"This is the mold for the custard mooncake. With the mold, we can start making the mooncake."

Creamy custard mooncake?

Shu Yun and Song Tiantian looked at each other and smiled, there was something delicious to taste!

The two asked again:

"Besides the custard filling, what other fillings are we going to make for mooncakes?"

"Flower ham filling. The ham and flower sauce will be delivered later. If you want to eat, you should be able to make some before dinner. After all, the flower ham filling moon cake is not as complicated as custard."

Lin Xu opened the package and inspected the mold by himself.

Shu Yun on the side was so excited that he even forgot to eat rice.

Flower ham?

Isn’t this my favorite filling?

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh it seems there is no way to lose weight before the Mid-Autumn Festival! ! ! !

I really like eating Yunnan-style mooncakes, but it’s a pity that the calories are really high. For me, I can only think about it... This chapter has 5200 words. Please vote for me, brothers!
