Sweet and soft wife, spoiled by rough man husband

Chapter 199 Expanding the Hot Pot Business
Now, as soon as Hongdou turned around, she told Wan Qiang about the shop's recruitment, and also told about the old man's situation.

Wan Qiang nodded: "Sister-in-law is good, it should have been like this a long time ago, how about this, sister-in-law, I will keep this matter in my heart, and I will start looking for people in the past two days, and I will fix this person as soon as possible."

"Okay." Hongdou nodded, and then asked him about his business.

"How is our pot shop doing now?"

After all, they had already opened a shop and a small factory before, and the family's money was enough for them to open another shop in the town. Therefore, taking advantage of this time, Wan Qiang opened a pot shop in the town.

And now that the weather is cold, it's time to eat pot.

Hongdou thought, with such a good time, the business must be very good.

I don't want Wan Qiang to frown when he hears this, it doesn't look too good.

Hong Dou saw it, and quickly asked, "What's wrong?"

"Our pot..." Wan Qiang said after thinking about it, "Before my sister-in-law was still in confinement, I couldn't say it, now..."

Wan Qiang sighed, "Maybe it's because there are a lot of pot shops in the town. Although our pot can be opened, it doesn't make a lot of money."

It's not even as good as the small stall he set up in the town before.

"It shouldn't be." Hongdou frowned, and then asked, "Do you know the reason?"

"I've seen that, apart from the fact that there are many pot shops in the town, there is another point, that is, our shop has nothing special, and the things sold in other shops are similar. Going to other stores, I don’t want to fight price wars with others.”

This is Wan Qiang's concern.

"It turned out to be so."

As he said that, Hongdou asked Wan Qiang, "Is there a menu in the store, please show me."

"it is good."

After saying that, Wan Qiang ran into his own room, and when he came back, he already had a menu in his hand, and quickly handed it to Hongdou: "These are the dishes in our shop, which are not bad from other shops."

"Ah."

Hongdou looked down as she spoke.

"The combination of meat and vegetables, and even rice, seems to be quite a lot, but..."

Red Bean pursed her lips.

Did she eat a little food when she ate hot pot in her previous life?

I have to say that even though they are relatively rich now, they are still limited by this era, and there are still many undeveloped delicacies in this era.

Therefore, looking at this menu now, Hongdou seems to have no major problems, but for heavy hot pot lovers, this is not enough.

Far from enough.

But where is the difference?
Hong Dou frowned, and suddenly thought of one thing: noodles!

There are all kinds of noodles in the hot pot, such as instant noodles, corn noodles, and egg noodles, and the noodles can also be extended to noodles, hot pot noodles, sweet potato noodles, and even strips.

In the previous life, everything could be cooked in hot pot.

For example, there are pig brain flowers, pig trotters, tiger skin chicken feet, and even fried eggs in the Sichuan and Chongqing regions. There are many delicious foods that can be directly put in the hot pot, but they are not available here now.

Moreover, not only do they not have these materials, but there is also a little bit, that is, the bottom of their pots.

Their pot bottoms are still made according to pork pot bottoms, but now Hongdou thinks they can innovate and make some new pot bottoms.

For example, hot pot bottom.

Of course, since the bottom of the pot is to be reformed, it is impossible to only have this one, and you can also choose tomato flavor, or mushroom flavor, and make some non-spicy ones.

And the seasoning at the bottom of these pots is not difficult.

They have made Hu spicy soup ingredients before, and they can add seasonings on that basis. I believe that as long as they think about how to do it, the bottom of the pot will be made soon.

When Hongdou thought of this, his mouth watered.

Looking at Wan Qiang: "I see."

As he said that, he called Wang Cuiniang, "I have to arrange for Uncle Zhang to go to the town to order some pig's trotters, and buy more chicken feet and goose intestines."

Wan Qiang was a little confused, "Sister-in-law wants to put these things in the pot and eat them hot?"

"Correct!"

"But these, can they be cooked through?"

"Why not." Hong Dou raised his eyebrows, and then, "Let's try this new dish tonight. Besides, I have one more thing to tell you."

Hot pot noodles and hot pot wide noodles are ready.

"Most of the people here are still not used to rice, so even if the store makes rice, there may not be many people who eat it. Let's make some noodles and noodles."

Talking about the red beans, they made arrangements, and planned to study how to make instant noodles and sweet potato flour by themselves first, and then put them into their small factory for processing after the research was completed.

Wan Qiang nodded straight, "That's fine, I'll wait for my sister-in-law."

The executive power of their family is still very high.

Zhang San quickly went to the town to buy the things that Hongdou wanted, and when he bought them back, Hongdou first asked Wang Cuiniang to marinate the pig's trotters and chicken feet.

Taking advantage of this time, Hongdou also asked Wang Cuiniang to fry eggs.

It is to pour the egg liquid directly into the oil pan, and when the egg is formed, take it out directly.

This fried egg is best paired with snail noodles, but now it is winter here, and it is difficult to find snails, so if you want to eat snail noodles, wait until next summer.

And fried eggs with spicy hot pot base, presumably there is no difference.

Therefore, while Wang Cuiniang was making those, Hongdou began to study her favorite butter hot pot base in her previous life.

Seeing the recipe above, red beans were made with local materials.

Naturally, they still lack some spices at home, but the red beans are clever enough to find substitutes.

And also specially got a lot of red spicy strips.

Not long after this, a layer of hot pot bottom material floating with red oil is ready.

Wan Qiang had been fighting behind him, and when he saw the color, he couldn't help sweating on his forehead, "Sister-in-law, why don't we eat such a spicy pot?"

"Well, there is another flavor, which is lighter. If you are afraid of spicy food, you can eat non-spicy ones later."

"Okay." Wan Qiang nodded, and then asked again, "What sister-in-law wants to say is that we will have this kind of pot bottom in the future? But, it's not easy to do, right? It's all water."

"What you're saying does make sense."

But in fact, the bottom material of a successful hot pot should be solid, but this is the first time to make red beans, and I am in a hurry to eat, so I started to prepare it before it condensed.

"This thing looks like water to you now. After a while, it will change into another shape. It is not only easy to carry but also can be stored for a long time. Tonight, let's try the taste first."

"Okay." Wan Qiang nodded, since his sister-in-law said so, he was relieved.

Soon, the evening hot pot feast will begin.

But before eating the hot pot, Hongdou took the time to stock up a batch of milk for the six cubs.

She was worried that if she got angry from eating spicy food, she would bring this anger to the children, so she made preparations in advance.
