Stop pretending, I am the God of Cooking and I am showing off my cards!

A series of question marks appeared on Yan Lin's head.

Co-author: If I accept a goddaughter, am I considering my own seniority too low?

This wave... is a bit of a loss.

"Lele, if you continue to be naughty and make ginger candy, it won't be your share."

"Brother Xu, I was wrong. I was really wrong from the bottom of my heart. How about I write a thousand-word review? I have special experience in this area. I wrote it for more than 20 classmates in high school..."

Chen Yan asked curiously:

"How can I help others write this? Do you want to do good things for others?"

"No, it's about making money. The starting price is 200 yuan per copy. The higher the price, the more sincere and profound the content is. The highest I made was 2,000 yuan per copy."

This time it was the turn of the adults present to be shocked.

"Do children nowadays have so much pocket money?"

"Social atmosphere has a great influence on children. They can see the power of money at a young age."

"If you have children at home, you must manage your pocket money, but you can't use it for these things."

"..."

Everyone was discussing the impact of social atmosphere on middle school students, but Lin Xu was the only one lamenting Geng Lele's ability to make money.

Earning 2,000 words for 1,000 words, the unit price of 2,000 words for 1,000 words... Think about those Internet writers, they are so happy to get a guaranteed contract of 30% for 1,000 words that they want to make dumplings to celebrate. It is really incomparable.

Contracts worth a thousand words or a thousand dollars are basically only enjoyed by great masters.

Tsk tsk tsk... When I was in high school, there were so many people in my class who wrote exams, why didn't I think of this business?

I feel like I missed out on a lot of money!

After the meal, Yan Lin took Geng Lele away under the guise of preparing gifts.

Not long after leaving, Cui Qingyuan received a message from Little Mushroom Head:

"I have successfully penetrated into the enemy~~~"

Tsk, you girl, are you just hanging around here?

He had already had enough wine and food, and he met his childhood sweetheart here. In order to prevent everyone from gossiping about this matter, he stood up and left.

After today's topical figure is gone, everyone finally feels like they can breathe.

Xie Baomin said angrily:

"If our teacher Su were here, she would definitely be moved to tears. She loves watching this type of TV series the most. It's such a pity."

Old Huang muttered:

"I don't know when these two people will break the window paper, and they are still waiting for the gift."

After customers came into the store, everyone dispersed to get ready for work tomorrow.

The next few days were quiet.

The loan procedures have entered the process stage. Chen Yan used a lawyer to transfer the two-bedroom apartment on the top floor of the community behind to the name of Pangdundun Company.

Lin Xu does not have a registered permanent residence in Beijing, so he cannot directly transfer his registered residence. Now he can only register with the company first.

Wait until you officially settle in before making any changes.

As for the penthouse duplex that I looked at before, Brother Feng also did some research. It was a property with complete procedures and there were no problems with the procedures.

In this case, Dou Wenjing spent 500,000 yuan from the company account, paid the deposit for the house, and entrusted a third-party company to conduct a comprehensive evaluation and inspection of the property.

The Geng Lele family held a very ceremonial recognition ceremony in Lin Ji's banquet hall. Everyone who had just attended the last college entrance banquet came to attend again.

Shen Baobao's replacement Continental GT has been delivered. She tried it and was quite satisfied.

Compared with professional sports cars, this kind of coupe has a higher chassis, better passability, and is more comfortable to drive. It is also slightly low-key compared to sports cars.

As the weather gets cooler, the store’s hot soup dishes become more popular.

Dishes such as steam-pot squab, emerald soup, lotus root stewed pork ribs and other dishes have been ordered before dinner time, and the sales of hot and sour soup have also increased steadily.

Even customers who eat hand-made noodles will ask for extra soup.

The cooler the temperature is, the more everyone likes to eat something hot.

"Boss, why don't we fuck Ginger Duck?"

In the kitchen, Che looked a little anxious as he watched Lin Xu slowly cutting fresh ginger that had recently been put on the market.

Because after the weather cooled down, customers couldn't stop eating the hot dishes, but the boss was not in a hurry and didn't even mention the new crop of ginger duck.

Lin Xu smiled and said:

"Don't worry, it's not really cold yet, so let's serve up all the dishes suitable for winter. What will we do then? We can't not serve all of them, right?"

Chinese restaurants pay attention to introducing new dishes on a regular basis. There have been quite a few new dishes recently, so you have to digest them first.

And there are many people like Shen Baobao who can eat ginger but cannot eat ginger. When everyone hears the word ginger in the name of a dish, they will subconsciously resist it, regardless of the taste.

In order to change everyone's understanding of ginger, Lin Xu decided to make ginger candies and sell them in the store before serving the new ginger duck.

Once everyone recognizes ginger again and accepts this ingredient, adding new ginger duck may have unexpected effects.

The fresh ginger he is cutting now is used to make ginger candies.

Ginger candy is known as a must-have snack to warm the stomach in winter. Regardless of middle-aged and elderly people who are weak and afraid of the cold, girls in their menstrual period, or people with cold hands and feet, they should eat it regularly.

Use ginger to get rid of the coldness in the body and bring a touch of warmth to the cold winter days.

Lin Xu saw that the car guy was not busy at the moment, so he pointed to the basket of washed but unpeeled ginger next to him and said to him:

"You, let's cut them together too. All these gingers have been cut. Since we are going to use the pot today, we will make more."

"okay!"

Che Zai washed his hands, then picked up a kitchen knife and chopped ginger together next to Lin Xu.

“Boss, can ginger candies only be made with fresh ginger?”

"That's not necessarily true. Old ginger will work too, but it has to be boiled, otherwise the spiciness will be too strong and you won't be able to taste the sweetness. Moreover, if you don't boil it, the fiber in the old ginger will not be easily broken."

Lin Xu answered Che Zi's question while cutting ginger.

You don’t need to cut fresh ginger too thick, just about three millimeters. This thickness allows the fresh ginger to be quickly pickled when candied, and it can also be quickly dehydrated and dried during frying.

And the prepared ginger candy is not easy to get wet.

If it is too thick, the production will be more difficult, because both pickling and subsequent processing will take a lot of time.

The method of making ginger candy is not complicated. Just pickle it with sugar and pour it directly into the pot, just like making winter melon candy, stir-fry and boil until the water dries up and the sugar becomes frosty.

If you want it crispy, add some food-grade lime.

Just like winter melon candy, it takes several days to change the water and soak it. The ginger candy produced in this way has a crispy taste, and the steps are the same as winter melon candy.

But Lin Xu didn't plan to make it crispy.

First of all, it takes too long and is not cost-effective, and the lime, even if it is food grade, only removes the heavy metals in it, and it needs to be soaked repeatedly to remove it.

There is absolutely no need to take this risk just to satisfy your cravings.

After cutting the ginger slices, take a large stainless steel basin, put a layer of ginger slices on the bottom of the basin, sprinkle with a layer of white sugar, then put a layer of ginger slices, and then sprinkle with a layer of white sugar.

Spread it layer by layer like this, and after all the ginger slices are put in, take it to the cold storage for candiing.

The so-called candied food is actually pickled with sugar.

White sugar, like table salt, can remove moisture from ingredients when in granular form.

By candiing it in this way, the water in the ginger slices will be removed. The finished ginger slices will be soft and pliable, and will not easily return to moisture.

Coming out of the cold storage, Lin Xu looked at the time. It was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

According to the progress of candied, it can be put into the pot and simmered at four or five o'clock. Of course, the time can be longer, but the taste of the ginger slices will be hard and not soft.

After washing his hands, Lin Xu returned to the kitchen and picked up a lamb chop.

Tonight is the day to invite President Liu Zhengyu of the National Tourism Association to dinner. We were supposed to invite him two days ago, but President Liu was in Chengdu to inspect tourism projects and was not in the capital.

Just after returning yesterday, Lin Xu made an urgent appointment for tonight's banquet.

By the way, I notified a circle of people who were helping to accompany me.

After marinating the lamb chops, I took out my phone and was about to take a break when senior brother Xie Baomin suddenly sent a message:

"Junior brother, I just heard that you have an important banquet in Building 10 that night, and I specially sponsored two Eastern Star Spots. I will go there with Director Liao at four or five o'clock, and let everyone try this top-notch delicacy."

Eastern star spot?

This is good stuff, top quality seafood.

But the Dongxingban in Building 10 is not enough to eat. Will you sponsor it for me?

A possibility suddenly flashed in Lin Xu's mind.

Couldn't senior brother secretly take this out from Building No. 10?

He has a long history in this area. From roasted suckling pig to red mandarin oranges, as well as all kinds of expensive ingredients, he has brought many disasters to Chef Guo.

Thinking of this, Lin Xu couldn't help crying tears of sympathy for Chef Guo in his heart.

When you meet someone like Senior Brother, you chefs should consider yourselves unlucky.

After replying to Xie Baomin's message, Lin Xu looked through the messages in other groups.

As a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder, every time I see the little red dot with unread messages, I can’t wait to click on it.

After looking through some other miscellaneous groups, Lin Xu clicked on [Linji Food High-end VIP Customer Group]. As soon as the page popped up, he saw a series of messages from Brother Qiang:

"Damn, there's a new manager in our department. Now he's staring at me and finding fault with me all day long. It feels like he's trying to force me to resign. In the past, I've always heard that Internet companies wanted to find employees who wanted to resign and would find fault with them. I didn't expect this to happen to me. Now... whoever is not busy at night, I want to drink some wine with my brother, I feel very unhappy."

Li Qiang's department used to have no manager, and he, the technical director, was in charge.

Now that we have a manager, instead of joining forces, there are signs of infighting.

After the news about Li Qiang came out, Shen Baobao, a capitalist, first posted an emoticon saying "Fight the bourgeoisie to the end."

Fortunately, my father-in-law was not in the group, otherwise my blood pressure would have risen immediately.

Panda said:

"Since you are the technical director, it shouldn't be difficult to change jobs, right?"

"It's not difficult. Several companies hired me before the National Day, and the bids were all higher than now. But now the boss of this company treats me well, so I'm a little reluctant to let go."

When he said this, his aunt jumped out:

"This is your own illusion. If it really treats you well, you should directly increase your salary. At least as much as the headhunter will pay, we will follow up here, otherwise everything will be a pie in the sky."

Yue Liyue posted a "It's hard to disagree" emoji:

"If I want to treat you well, I should just like Boss Lin treat Lin Ji's employees, directly raise the salary to the highest in the industry, otherwise it will be nonsense."

"Jump, Brother Qiang, jump over and there will be people crying here."

"Come on, don't dwell on the past, there is something better waiting for you ahead."

"Tiaotiaotiao, don't hesitate. We have no relationship with the capitalists. Everything talks with money!"

"..."

While everyone was talking to each other, Geng Lele, who took a break from his busy schedule, came over to Shuiqun and was stunned when he saw the news:

"Are you urging Brother Qiang to jump off the building?"

"Geng - Le - Le - are you so looking forward to me jumping off the building?"

"No, no, no, how can I program for you after you jump off the building? The program I wrote for you remotely last time was correct, right? You're welcome, I always like to help others!"

Li Qiang:? ? ? ? ? ?

"So you were the one who wrote the programs that were full of errors last time? When did you connect to my computer? I didn't turn on remote control."

"Ahem, that's not important. I was still in the training stage at the time, and I'm much better now."

Geng Lele dropped an emoticon saying "slip away" and ran away, no longer daring to bubble up in the group.

Brother Qiang: "..."

I originally came to the group to seek comfort because I was depressed, but I didn’t expect that I would become even more depressed now.

Everyone comforted me very well, please don’t comfort me next time.

Lin Xu read everyone's news and liked Brother Qiang in the group:

"I don't know how to comfort you. I'm going to make ginger candies in the afternoon. I'll give you a jar then. You can take it to the office and eat it. It's good for your stomach and seems to be good for hair growth."

He didn't know whether eating ginger could help grow hair, but he just thought Brother Qiang liked it, so he mentioned it.

Just think of it as a psychological comfort to Brother Qiang.

Unexpectedly, these words directly scratched Brother Qiang’s itch:

"This is good, this is good, get me some more. I went to ask Tiantian to help me swipe my card. Last time I paid my salary, I recharged 10,000 yuan at a time. I haven't spent it all yet."

"The money is free. This thing is not worth anything. If you have time to go to the store, you can help me promote it in the company."

Brother Qiang's colleagues are the first batch of customers in the store, so if there is delicious food, Lin Xu will ask Brother Qiang to shout at the company. It doesn't matter whether they come to eat or not. What is important is that these are old customers and cannot be forgotten.

It's about four o'clock in the afternoon.

Lin Xu came to the cold storage and saw that the originally full basin of ginger had shrunk a lot, and the white sugar inside had basically melted, and a lot of water had precipitated at the bottom of the basin.

This is the water-killing effect of sugar. Although it is not as good as salt, it is still quite powerful.

Take the basin outside and put on the largest wok. Heat the wok first and slide it to prevent the wok from sticking to the bottom.

After sliding the pan three times in a row, pour out all the fat in the pan.

Then pour the ginger slices and the juice from the basin into the pot and cook over high heat.

All this water is ginger water that has been killed by white sugar, and all the nutrients are in it. Now when it is boiled, the taste of ginger will come out immediately.

After boiling, stir the pot constantly with a spoon to speed up the evaporation of water.

After a while, the soup in the pot became obviously thicker.

This means that the water in the pot has been reduced. When all the water is boiled out, the syrup will start to become sandy, and the ginger candy is almost ready by then.

But that’s not enough now, you have to continue stirring to let the water evaporate further.

After about ten minutes, when the soup in the pot is so thick that it is almost impossible to stir it up with a spoon, turn down the heat to low, change the spatula and start stir-frying.

The syrup in the pot is getting thicker and thicker, the water is getting less and less, and the ginger slices are becoming dry.

Take the wok away from the flame and place it next to the stove so that the bottom of the wok is slightly heated.

Continue to stir-fry for a while until the syrup begins to thicken.

At first, there was only a small amount of white sand-like frosting hanging on the ginger slices.

But as the stir-frying continues, more and more icing sugar hangs, and at the same time, the thick syrup in the pot is quickly decreasing.

When there is a little semi-solid syrup left at the bottom of the pot, turn off the heat and continue to stir-fry.

At this time, the distribution of the frosting is not even enough, and the syrup may melt again, so continue to stir-fry and use the remaining heat to completely reduce the moisture in the pot.

And during the stir-frying process, the friction between the ginger slices will make the icing sugar hanging on the surface even and form a sandy texture.

This is the secret of Qisha.

The pumpkin sanding method taught by my senior brother before is exactly the same as this step.

In addition, there are sweet potato stir-fry, taro stir-fry, sugar-fried hawthorn, etc., all of which have the same approach but the same purpose.

After all the ginger slices turned into white flakes covered with hoarfrost, Lin Xu brought a large tray, poured the ginger slices in the pot into them, and spread them out to dry.

After cooling, put directly into sealed snack jars, and then place them out for sale.

However, this pot is not for sale, we will give it all away, warm it up first, and give it to relatives and friends to try.

The next pot will be officially launched for sale.

While he was busy, Wei Qian came over and saw a layer of white frosting stuck to the bottom of the pot, so he asked curiously:

"Is the frosting down here useless? Do you want me to wash it for you?"

"This is good stuff, but it will be wasted if you wash it."

Zhu Yong came over to take a look, and immediately took a bamboo spatula to carefully shovel off the icing sugar at the bottom of the pot, and put it into a small bowl:

"These frostings are the essence, and they are most suitable for making the brown sugar ginger tea that girls like to drink."

Wei Qian perked up as soon as he heard this:

"Really? Then share some with me."

"What do you want? Your family is as sweet and strong as a calf, but our family's Yuyu is so painful that she cries for mother every time she has her menstrual period...I took all these away. Last time I let her drink hot water. ，被她嫌弃得差点忍着疼痛戴上拳击手套揍我，这次，我要暖她一整天！”

"Don't warm up..."

Wei Gan muttered sourly and said to Lin Xu:

"Why don't you slide the pan next time, so that the bottom of the pan can be soaked with more ginger-flavored icing sugar. I'll also try making brown sugar ginger tea."

Lin Xu: "..."

If you two were to fall in love, would you lose your mind?

Just squeeze out some ginger juice and brown sugar, boil it together, pour it out, and cut it into small pieces after solidification. Isn't it easier than shoveling the bottom of the pot?

Tsk, let me teach you later.

Who would have thought that I, a straight man who got a girlfriend from heaven, could actually become the relationship coach in the store.

He picked up a piece of ginger candy and tasted it. The frosting had a very good texture, and the sweetness of the ginger was very soft, mixed with a hint of spiciness. It was very enjoyable to eat.

While eating, Xie Baomin walked into the kitchen carrying two pieces of Eastern Star Spot, and Shi Shiran said:

"Junior brother, come on, let me teach you a classic Eastern Star Spot dish - Kirin Eastern Star Spot!"
