The black-bellied prince: the little princess of the chef

Chapter 20 Boiled Loach
Ye Qing was dumbfounded, looked up at Boss Xiong and smiled ugly, it really was "Nothing to be courteous, either adultery or robbery".She is soft-spoken now, and she is short-handed if she wants to take away these snacks for a while. It seems that she will not be able to do this if she doesn't help.It's just that Boss Xiong is also a respectable figure, what else can be difficult for him?
"Boss Xiong, you are too good at joking!"

Seeing that she didn't believe it, Boss Xiong wrinkled his facial features together, beat his chest and stamped his feet, and was so anxious that he almost cried, "Girl, what are you doing lying to you? I'm dying of anxiety here. Why are you still making fun of me?" What? Hey!"

Seeing him, Ye Qing was really anxious, she was soft-spoken and didn't help or be righteous, anyway she couldn't help him as a little girl, just listen and let him relieve his mood, thank him for these two plates of pastries.

Seeing that she was willing to help, Boss Xiong quickly got up and dragged her to the kitchen, and then dragged her to a tile vat half as tall as a person, with a pained expression on his face, "It's all here, what do you think?"

Ye Qing pursed his lips in disapproval, looked down, hehe, it turned out to be the "loach" known as ginseng in the water, this is a delicious dish.She looked at it, hallucinations appeared in front of her eyes, as if she saw a plate of boiled loach floating in front of her eyes, it was so fragrant and spicy, it made people salivate.

"Boss Xiong, loach is a good thing, why don't you ask me to help you eat it?" Ye Qing chuckled, rubbing his hands together and said, "This is another specialty that is as famous as my first specialty."

Boss Xiong saw that she was still using him to brush, so he told the story in detail, hoping that she could help.The cook in his kitchen is nothing, she is thinking about the weird jelly she made, wondering if she can also solve his current problem.

He once ate stir-fried loach in the Bashu area, and the taste was very memorable, but no one in their hometown sells, let alone eats this kind of slippery food.But a few days ago, he came across a peddler selling loach, thinking about the taste in his memory, his brain cramped, and without thinking carefully, he bought all his loach, which weighed dozens of catties!
But after buying it, I discovered the problem. The chefs in the restaurant can't cook it.After much deliberation, he asked the cooks to cook them one by one, and whoever cooked them well would sell them and raise their wages.But, not to mention frying, they don't even know how to cut open the belly of loaches to clean the internal organs, so how can they know how to fry?He spent a lot of money on this tank of loach, and now no one can make it, and he can't sell it, so he can only wait for it to be dumped, losing money!

Ye Qing stared at the contents of the tank with bright eyes, clicked twice, then rolled up his sleeves, excitedly said: "Go and ask the kitchen staff to bring a pot of cornmeal, and a sharpened wire , a two-finger-wide blade, and a plank."

"Hey, good!" Boss Xiong heard that there was something interesting, wrote down what she wanted, and went to do it himself.

In fact, if you want to subdue the slippery loach with ease, it's the same as plucking chicken feathers, and there are tricks to it.For example, loach is slippery and difficult to grasp, so throw them into cornmeal or husks and roll them to make the smooth skin stained with powder, increasing the friction between your hands and the loach, and it will naturally not be able to escape up.

In addition, use a sharp iron drill to pass through the head of the loach, nail it to a wooden board and fix it, straighten the bent body of the loach with one hand, and cut open the belly with a blade with the other hand, and gently pick it with the tip of the knife. The viscera in the belly of the loach was cleaned up.Finally, cut off the head and rinse it with clean water!

Boss Xiong was probably also in a hurry, and quickly delivered what Ye Qing wanted, but he was sweating profusely and panting.Ye Qing took the things in his hands, and quickly finished the preparations, Boss Xiong and the other two staff were stunned.This girl is decisive and skillful in her moves, even the elders like them are a little bit hesitant to do so.

Ye Qing estimated the amount of a plate, so he didn't continue, picked up the cleaned loach and asked where the kitchen was, Boss Xiong personally took her there as if welcoming a distinguished guest.The two guys had been attracted by her for a long time, and they chased after her, for fear of missing her.

The kitchen of Huitouke Restaurant is large, spacious, bright, ventilated and dry, and the kitchen utensils inside are neatly arranged, with everything that one expects to find.Ye Qing was very satisfied, found the water tank, asked the waiter to help her scoop water and wash her hands, then she lost herself in busy work in the kitchen, completely leaving Boss Xiong and the three cooks and waiters in the sky.

Boiled loach comes from the boiled series of Sichuan Yanbang cuisine, the most famous of which are boiled pork slices and boiled beef.Boiled in water, worthy of the name is that it has a lot of soup and tastes fresh, as if the ingredients in the bowl are really cooked.Ye Qing made up his mind to show his hands, then let go of his fists and kicks.

The boiled dishes need green vegetables as a base, after Ye Qing washed the loach, he added some seasonings and stuffed it for later use.The best base ingredient for this season is the head of lettuce. She picked out a head of lettuce with thin skin and thick flesh at a glance. She picked up the kitchen knife and saw that the knife turned in a circle in her palm, and then quickly cut four times. The lettuce The skin of the head has been peeled off.Wash it in clean water, cut the lettuce heads into strips three to four centimeters long, one centimeter wide and one centimeter thick for later use.Because the onion, ginger and garlic are ready-made, she only chopped red pepper and prepared a small plate of chili noodles. After finishing all the preparations, she said in a very modern way: "Fire!"

Boss Xiong was already shocked by her, when he heard about the fire, he asked her to start the fire, and quickly ordered the cook to start the stove, looking forward to Ye Qing's next performance.Not only him, but even the chef behind him, who is known as the first-level chef, almost fell out of his eye sockets in shock.

Seeing that the iron pan has been heated up, Ye Qing poured in the rapeseed oil and heated it up, first added the ingredients, then poured in the loach and stir-fried, when the ginger slices were fried until the loach stretched and straightened, then added bean paste, chili, lettuce sticks and sautéed until fragrant. Taste, then add a little water, add soy sauce, sugar, monosodium glutamate and cooking wine, and then turn off the heat.Cook over medium-low heat until the sauce is thick and flavorful, then thicken it with starch, sprinkle chili on the loach, and sprinkle with coriander when it comes out of the pan.

A pot of boiled loach with delicious color and fragrance is out of the pot!
"Smell! Smell! Smell!"

Boss Xiong said three fragrant words in a row, and his excitement was beyond words, which is amazing.

Ye Qing took off his apron, and said proudly: "Boss Xiong, try it, does it suit your taste?"

Boss Xiong nodded. Immediately, a staff brought him chopsticks. Resisting the scalding and spicy, he ate three loach in a row, and praised inconceivably, "Sweet, girl, your cooking is really delicious. Hey, where are you?"

After he finished eating and looked up, where is Ye Qing's shadow in the kitchen?
　Are you greedy? When Xian was writing, I was drooling while writing. It was absolutely delicious. .Ask for a ticket, ask for a ticket, ask for a collection, ask for a collection.
