Chapter 61 Goose Meatballs and Beef Balls

In the back alleys of Lanhai Street, more and more intense aromas drifted out along the pipes.

The helper of the Lanting Pavilion next door just came out to take out the garbage, sniffed his nose, and inhaled the tempting fragrance into his stomach, so as to relieve the gluttons that had been lured out of his stomach a little.

This taste seems to be more fragrant than the steak fried by their chef.

Not long after the opening next door, the front door is always quiet, but the back kitchen has different aromas every day, sweet and salty for a while, beef for a while, and chicken for a while. The employees were discussing what kind of dishes this Yu restaurant was cooking every day.

Two brothers from the Yu family are making meatballs.

Yu Jianguo signed a cooperation agreement with the breeding farm in the western suburbs, and it will be the source of supply for Yu's restaurant in the future. In the morning, a batch of freshly slaughtered meat was delivered. Yu Jianping saw that there were a few fat old geese.

We all know that people in Yangcheng love to eat goose, but in fact, people in Chaozhou love it even more.Frying, frying and grilling, there are hundreds of ways to make goose meat.

What Yu Jianping wants to do is goose meatballs.Wash and peel the fresh goose meat, take the thickest breast meat and leg meat, and beat it on the chopping board with a meat stick to make a meat paste.In addition, local galangal powder from Raoxiang, seasoned with cooking wine, salt, etc., and then mixed with fresh soup stewed with goose bones, the taste is even better.

Boil water in the pot. After the water boils, squeeze the goose paste into the shape of balls and put it into the water. After a while, the white and fat goose meat balls float to the surface of the water one after another like glutinous rice balls.

Needless to say, Yu Jianguo’s craftsmanship of beef balls. The beef hindquarters are stripped of the tendons and butter, and beaten into a meat slurry. A little beef bone soup is also added to the meatballs, and they are squeezed into small and delicate balls, which are a miniature version. Goose meatballs.

Two or three traditional beef balls are enough to fill you up. This is a smaller version of beef balls specially developed by him, which is more suitable for women and children.

……

Yang Jianxin is on a half-day shift today, and he went home to rest for a while at noon, his mind was full of the smell from the back alley.

Getting up quickly, he shouted to the outside of the room: "Mom, stop cooking, let's go out to eat tonight."

Yang's mother walked over thoughtfully: "Go out to eat again, you'll just keep your mouth shut for the little money you make!" After all, she consciously put away the basket that was about to choose vegetables.

In the evening, Yang Jianxin dragged his parents out together.He is a native of the capital, and he lives in a community near Lanhai Street. It takes only ten minutes to walk to Yu's restaurant.

The Lanting Pavilion next to it was brightly lit, and there were still many people sitting and waiting for a seat at the entrance. On the other hand, the entrance of Yu's restaurant was quiet and quiet, with only a faint light reflected from the windows.

Mother Yang questioned: "Looks like there are not many people..." In the old man's concept, there must be a queue for a delicious place, and there is a high probability that there is no one.

Yang Jianxin was also a little puzzled, logically it shouldn't be.When the door was pushed open, his doubts were resolved.

There is a stark contrast between the hustle and bustle inside the door and the coldness and silence outside the door. It is as if a world is separated by a door.

"Who are you?" A beautiful female welcome came up, today she was wearing a pink gown with a headband of the same color.

"Three...three." Yang Jianxin was dazed by her sweet smile, and replied a little embarrassed.

The female welcome looked at the tablet in her hand, and said to them: "It happens that a table of guests has changed their appointment, please come with me."

It was only then that Yang Jianxin realized that it was no wonder that Yu's restaurant seemed to have few patrons, and that people who love each other only made reservations.Walking along the way, there was a lot of drinking in the boxes of the people who came, and the reservation information was already placed on the empty tables.

Fortunately, he was still worried about others, and the co-author had already made a fortune in silence!

"Miss sister, I'm from Lantingxuan next door..." Yang Jianxin made friends with others, starting with self-reporting.

The girl nodded and served tea sets for several people: "I know, I have seen you."

"Really?"

"Well, every time you go to the back kitchen to take out the garbage, you like to stand by our door for a while." The girl bared her four teeth.

Uh……

He couldn't answer those words... After hesitating for a few words, he whispered: "Who makes your back kitchen so delicious every day."

Father Yang ordered food, and the girl was about to leave when Yang Jianxin stopped her again: "What is the fragrance in the back alley of your house today?"

The girl thought for a while and said, "You mean meatballs?"

Yang Jianxin swallowed his saliva and nodded: "Give me another ball."

Shuangwan Yuhai, as the name suggests, is a soup made from two different kinds of meatballs.The prototype of this dish comes from Tang Yuxiu meatballs in the Tang Dynasty. Yu Jian has improved it and told Yu Jianguo how to make it.

The soup base is a broth made from chicken bones over a slow fire, with all kinds of fresh mushrooms added. After filtering, the soup is as white and clear as water, and it is delicious and fragrant when you drink it.

The beef balls and goose meatballs are simmered in the broth, and there are still tiny bubbles when they come out of the pan. Sprinkle with a little celery and green onion, it looks indescribably refreshing.

Yang Jianxin first filled a small bowl of soup, took a sip, and felt that the ingredients in his mouth were fresh and delicious, and the more he drank, the fresher he was.

To use their Beijing dialect to describe it, there is one word: exquisite!

The goose meatballs were chewy, and the goose meat bounced and danced in his mouth, while the beef balls were small, one bite at a time, and Yang Jianxin enjoyed eating it.

Mama Yang made the rice with the soup. One bite at a time, the rice mixed with the soup was another ultimate enjoyment.

Father Yang prefers sauced pork knuckles. The skin of the pork knuckles is thin, the tendons are fleshy and thin, and it smells like meat, spices, and a bit of tea after one bite. The meat is firm, but tender and juicy. greasy.

At this time, it's time to drink a little wine to add to the fun. Father Yang unscrewed the Red Star Erguotou secretly hidden in his trousers pocket, and under the eyes of Mother Yang, he happily sipped the pork knuckle and the wine.

Full of wine and food, Yang Jianxin went to the front desk to check out, and saw the previous young lady again. He thought of the task his mother had assigned him, and asked with some difficulty: "Well... I want to buy some meatballs, can I?"

The girl was a little surprised and asked him to wait a while before going to the back kitchen to ask.There are quite a few customers who love to eat their food, but this is the first one who wants to bring something with them.

After a while, the girl came back with a small lunch box in her hand, a little apologetic: "The meatballs in the kitchen are all made according to the predetermined ratio, there are not too many. But our master said that we can give you Try a few of them, no money will be charged."

Although the meatballs in the box are a bit small, and you can only make one meal when you go home, it is better than nothing.Yang Jianxin insisted on paying a little more money, so he won't be charged for any meritorious service!

"Xiaoxin, the restaurant you recommended today is not bad." Father Yang picked the meat crumbs between his teeth and praised him, "I will bring my old friends over to try it in a few days, and you can make an appointment for me then!"

Yang Jianxin hummed, and touched the mobile phone in his pocket with his fingers. He just added Miss Sister's WeChat, and in front of him was Miss Sister's smile, and his ears were red...

Strangely beautiful...
