From selling box lunches to becoming a famous Chinese chef

Chapter 25 "Four Happy Meatballs" needs to be beaten (please follow up)

At noon on Friday, Feng Zhengming went to the train station to sell lunch boxes as usual.

Business is still very good, especially when the staff at the train station saw Feng Zhengming going there. They all took lunch boxes to his stall and queued up to buy meals. It felt like they regarded Feng Zhengming's lunch stall as a workplace canteen.

Even some older ladies at the train station who need to sell tickets and cannot go out to buy them will ask someone to bring one for them.

"Xiao Feng, bring me two dishes and pack them separately."

Feng Zhengming laughed and said, "Okay, sister, wait a moment, I'll install it for you right now."

While serving food and rice to the employees lining up at the train station, Feng Zhengming informed everyone by the way.

"Thank you all for your help these days, so that my business can be so good every day. I can't come here to sell lunch boxes for two days on the weekend. I will come back next Monday to continue selling. Brothers and sisters, please remember to bring lunch for the two days on the weekend. "

Hearing what Feng Zhengming said, the eldest sister who had just received two dishes asked strangely: "Xiao Feng, why don't you come over the weekend?"

The employees at the train station behind her also asked curious questions.

"Yeah, why don't you come over the weekend?"

"I've been used to eating your food, Xiao Feng, for the past two days. If you don't come, I have to eat in the cafeteria again. I've really eaten enough."

"Yes, if Xiao Feng Qian has any difficulties, please let us know and we will definitely help you."

Feng Zhengming explained: "Thank you for your concern, sisters and brothers. It's not that there is any difficulty, it's because I have to go to the countryside with the seniors from the cafeteria to cook birthday banquets for people on weekends, so I can't come to sell boxed lunches tonight. I may not be able to make it back on Saturday and Sunday.”

After listening to Feng Zhengming's explanation, the employees at the train station all expressed their understanding.

"Oh, okay, Xiao Feng, you are good at your craftsmanship, you will definitely have no problem making banquets for others."

"That's right, Xiao Feng's skills are those of a chef. There is absolutely no problem in preparing birthday banquets for people."

"If I have a chance in the future, I really want to try your mat-making skills, Xiao Feng."

Feng Zhengming said with a smile: "If you have the opportunity, if you need to host a banquet at your home, if you trust us, you can ask me and my senior brother to do it for you."

For Feng Zhengming, he will never miss any opportunity to promote himself and his senior brother.

If any of the employees at the train station needs to serve as a banquet for weddings or weddings, then Feng Zhengming and his senior brother will have business.

Everyone who bought lunch boxes also said that if necessary, they would give priority to Feng Zhengming.

Feng Zhengming did not prepare much food at noon.

Originally, Li Huidong and Lin Jiacheng suggested that he not sell lunch boxes today.

But Feng Zhengming thought that he had just established a good relationship with the train station employees, so he did some things. In fact, he mainly said hello to the train station employees.

Tell them in advance that he will not come to the train station to sell lunch boxes in the evenings and weekends.

This gives a notice to the train station employees who are accustomed to eating their own lunches in the past two days.

Letting the train station employees prepare in advance can also be regarded as maintaining a good relationship with them.

In this way, when Feng Zhengming comes back next week to sell lunch boxes, everyone should still be able to take care of their own business.

So after selling out the train station employees, Feng Zhengming didn’t have much food or rice left.

After several waves of passengers entering and exiting the station, Feng Zhengming’s box lunches were sold out.

After cleaning up, he quickly got on his three-wheeler and returned to the brewery canteen.

Just entering the backyard of the cafeteria, I saw Zhang Lei and Yang Peng busy in the yard.

Feng Zhengming parked the tricycle, washed his hands, and joined Zhang Lei and Yang Peng.

The first thing to make is the Sixi Meatballs.

Take out the diced meat. Feng Zhengming first chopped the meat into pieces with a knife and then chopped them twice casually.

Seeing Zhang Lei and Yang Peng watching from the side, Feng Zhengming explained to them while doing it.

"For Sixi meatballs, they must be cut into dices about the size of soybeans, and then roughly chopped. Chopping will make the meat fluffy, which will make it fluffy."

Feng Zhengming chopped and smashed the meat with a knife, roughly processing the diced meat.

Most of the diced pork remains in the form of diced pork.

Then, Feng Zhengming chopped a large amount of green onion and ginger, and added them all to the diced meat.

Also add a large amount of water chestnuts that have been peeled, washed and chopped into finer pieces.

After adding these ingredients, Feng Zhengming also took out the steamed buns he had soaked before leaving at noon, squeezed out the soaked water from the steamed buns, and then crushed them into diced meat.

"Add a little allspice for flavor, and some beaten eggs."

In terms of seasoning, Feng Zhengming said while adding seasoning: "We mainly use soy sauce for seasoning, so add a little less salt, a little more sugar and MSG, a little less pepper, and finally add some starch."

Zhang Lei and Yang Peng watched carefully from the side.

During the seasoning process, Feng Zhengming also tasted the taste with his tongue to make sure that the taste was sufficient, and then began to stir in the large basin with both hands.

First mix the diced meat and the minced onions, ginger, water chestnuts and various flavors added to it.

Then Feng Zhengming inserted his hands into the basin, picked up the diced meat in the basin and threw it into the basin hard.

Zhang Lei and Yang Peng were really shocked when they saw it.

Sixi meatballs need to be beaten, which the two of them learned from their master.

But today they were really shocked when they saw Feng Zhengming beating a large pot like this.

The two of them looked at each other and couldn't help but marvel at the strength and physical strength of their junior uncle.

Feng Zhengming stirred and beat the diced meat vigorously.

The diced meat gradually turned into balls of minced meat while being beaten.

It will indeed be very hard to beat a big pot like this.

Feng Zhengming gradually began to breathe.

"Remember, hoo, hit, hoo, make sure to hit it hard, hoo, but don't hit it too hard."

After Feng Zhengming's hard beating, the minced meat in the big basin was finally almost integrated into one.

The green onions, ginger and water chestnuts are no longer visible, and all that can be seen is the complete meat filling.

After Feng Zhengming finished beating, he asked Zhang Lei and Yang Peng to come over and touch it.

"Huh, you guys, uh, come here, come here, touch it, just remember this."

Li Huidong came out at this time and saw that his junior brother was panting, but he still did not forget to teach his two apprentices. Li Huidong said quickly: "You two, watch carefully and be sure to remember what your junior uncle taught you. These are all Really old craftsmanship, if you can’t make Sixi Meatballs in the future, don’t say that you learned it from your junior uncle.”

Zhang Lei and Yang Peng nodded in agreement seriously and carefully observed the meat filling in the basin next to the big basin.

The two of them were really shocked when they saw Feng Zhengming smashing out such a large bowl of meat.

Feng Zhengming stood up, looked at his senior brother and said, "Brother, is the frying pan ready? Are we going to fry the meatballs first?"

Li Huidong agreed: "Okay, let's fry the meatballs first. We'll fry them today and stew them in the evening. We can bring them over tomorrow and steam them directly before serving them."

Zhang Lei and Yang Peng took the initiative to carry the big basin with Feng Zhengming to the kitchen back cook without their master asking.
