Chapter 117 New Challenge
The live broadcast room opened on time at 7:30 in the morning, and the audience who had been watching early poured in.
The number of viewers has skyrocketed, and the popularity in order is:
Fu Chao, Nanzhi, Qi Pei'er, and Xie Yu.
Another sudden jump, the sorting is refreshed.
Nanzhi came to the top.
Qi Pei'er fell last.
...The battle situation can be said to be very anxious.
But the audience’s focus is not on this.
Through different perspectives, they discovered new scenes——
[It’s a bit strange here, why haven’t I seen it before? 】
【The original mahjong parlor is not so big. Is this a new map unlocked? 】
【The bar looks like Qi Pei'er's dessert shop! ? 】
【Opening a restaurant and a dessert shop? 】
……
The discussion process among the guests yesterday took place after the live broadcast.
So the audience was a little confused at first.
Until they slowly learned about the current situation through dialogue...
The screen was filled with silence.
Since the store is expanding, the number of customers will also increase.
The problem is that there is only one chef in the store, Nanzhi.
Xie Yu, barely half.
As a result, Nanzhi will inevitably face a larger workload.
Can she really bear it?
This is a question common to all live broadcast room viewers!
Except for a few who blindly trust Nanzhi, most of the comments raised questions:
[Nanzhi is very good at cooking, but how can she support such a large store alone? 】
【Haste makes waste, I feel like we will face a new crisis today. 】
[Actually, Nanzhi is quite stable. She must have her reasons for her decision...]
[Don’t brag for her, Nanzhi is not a god! Now just wait for the car to roll over! 】
[Some people are really happy. Don’t they know that her greatest ability is to make a comeback against the wind and slap her in the face? 】
【There are a lot of Nanzhi Heizi in the barrage recently. What's going on? Someone went into the water? 】
……
Nanzhi was not completely unprepared.
At this time, there was a naked chicken on the chopping board in front of her.
Chicken-eating in China has a long history and is featured in all major cuisines, such as Hakka salt-baked chicken, Sichuan-Diji saliva chicken, Jiangnan beggar’s chicken, Yunzhou steam-pot chicken...
And China has a vast land and abundant resources. It also allows excellent ingredients to emerge in an endless stream, each with its own advantages.
For example, the Wenchang chicken from Hai Province has thin skin, crispy bones and tender meat, the Taihe black-bone chicken from Jiang Province has extremely high medicinal value, and the Qingyuan Ma chicken from Guang Province has rich subcutaneous fat and delicious soup...< br>
It’s a pity that Nazhi can’t afford it.
The one in front of her was an ordinary three-yellow chicken.
The price is not expensive, but the meat is tender and cost-effective. It is very suitable for the dish Nanzhi will make next.
She crossed the wings of the chicken and inserted the knife in the lower part of the neck so that the wing tips protruded from the inside of the mouth. Stuffed into the belly of the chicken, it forms the posture of mandarin ducks playing in the water.
“Do you understand?”
She asked Xie Yu.
Xie Yu:……
"Sorry, can you do it again?"
Nanzhi demonstrated again.
Xie Yu was still dazzled.
Nanzhi: "...Forget it."
She simply instructed Xie Yu to do other things.
After these days of running in, Xie Yu has been able to understand her meaning tacitly.
Basically, if Nazhi just says something, he can immediately cooperate. The two of them are perfect partners. Nanzhi's hands didn't stop moving, and he quickly processed a batch of whole chickens.
Then mix the caramel sugar with water, apply it evenly on the chicken, and let it dry until it is semi-dry.
At this time, the hot oil she asked Xie Yu to heat was about the same temperature, and she fried the whole chicken until golden brown and took it out.
Next, transfer the chicken to a large pot, add chopped ginger, an appropriate amount of salt and soy sauce, as well as a spice packet made by grinding and mixing nine kinds of Chinese medicinal materials such as cloves, Amomum villosum, and cardamom, and simmer in water.
During the whole process, the chicken is pressed firmly by the iron grate to prevent it from flipping and uneven heating during the boiling process.
After the heat changes from boiling to simmering, it should always be kept at a state of almost boiling, but not boiling, and not boiling.
The Sanhuang chicken chosen by Nanzhi is not large in size and age, and only needs to be simmered for 3 to 4 hours.
And there are dozens of chickens in this pot, and the deep pot is big enough to hold people.
After cooking it once, you can directly harvest it and sell it during business hours. It is very convenient and saves Nanzhi a lot of time.
While waiting for the food to simmer, Nanzhi asked Xie Yu to fry two more vegetables.
Now Nanzhi basically only cooks difficult dishes, leaving basic side dishes like scrambled eggs with tomatoes and spicy and sour potato shreds to Xie Yu.
At the same time, she also adjusted the menu and removed some dishes that she did not have time for and that Xie Yu was not up to.
The audience in the live broadcast room suddenly realized:
[Let me tell you, Nanzhi must have been prepared! 】
【Why do I feel so irresponsible? The level of Xieyu is quite different from that of Nanzhi. Isn’t this just a trick to fool the diners? 】
【When you go to a restaurant to eat, all the dishes are cooked by the chef? Aren’t there also second and third chefs, each with different levels of skill? 】
【Nanzhi is very professional. In a good restaurant, the chef cannot do everything. Otherwise, what do you think the executive chef does? 】
……
The barrage was endlessly debated.
But Nanzhi took a bite of Xie Yu’s dish after it came out of the pot and nodded:
“Well, it’s not bad.”
Xie Yu’s Qingjun’s face Full of nervousness, he asked unconfidently:
“Really good?”
Nanzhi smiled and without further explanation, directly called the others in to try the dishes.
The first ones to run in were the Zaizai.
Nanyi was the first:
“Mom! I’m coming!”
Qingxi who was following behind burped:
"Do you want to try the food? Hiccup!"
Qi Zhang couldn't wait to join in:
"I'll do it, I'll do it!"
Then they saw a plate of green food .
The Zaizai collective: Well...
Not liking to eat vegetables is probably a common problem among children all over the world.
Qingxi and Qi Zhang quickly found reasons to run away.
Nanyi is still struggling.
Only Xie Anan was very excited and took the initiative to try this dish after hearing that her father made it.
Fu Chao and Qi Pei'er also came one after another and took chopsticks to try the dishes.
After eating, everyone was surprised.
Because the food tasted better than they expected!
Xie Anan said in a daze:
"Dad’s cooking was not so delicious before. Is this the dish cooked by Aunt Zhizhi?"
Other faces There is unanimous confusion.
Xie Yu then explained:
“It’s a recipe written by Nanzhi herself.”
Nanzhi leaned lazily on the island, smiling confidently, as if everything was under her control中：
“You have to believe in our quality control.”
The recipes she wrote personally can allow people like Boss Yang, who is indifferent to grains, to restore 70% of the taste of fried rice.
Not to mention Xie Yu, whom she taught step by step.
Home-cooked dishes such as scrambled eggs with tomatoes require heat and seasoning, but Nanzhi makes the time accurate to seconds and the portions accurate to grams.
Coupled with Xie Yu's clever mind, it is only a matter of time before he reaches a level that Nanzhi is satisfied with.
So, Nanzhi’s intention to expand the store was never something he said casually.
