"Zhao Mei, the glutinous rice can be soaked for one more hour to make the texture more sticky. Of course, if you want this kind of slightly hard texture, it will be very successful," Yuan Zhou said.
"Because I know you like the food that is harder, so I specially made it this way," Cheng Zhao Mei hurriedly said.
Yuan Zhou was stupefied. He liked the food that was harder? As a chef, he could remember the preferences of his customers, and the system called it a talent. However, when it came to what he liked, he really couldn't think of it in such a short time.
"Master, did I make a mistake in my judgment?" Cheng Zhao Mei asked nervously.
"No, I do like the food that is harder." Yuan Zhou said again, "Zhao Mei, you can go back and ask Zhang Longquan and the others about the cooking method of steamed Cantonese glutinous rice dumplings. After that, you should have some ideas."
This wasn't the first time that Yuan Zhou had asked Cheng Zhao Mei to learn from the cooking methods of other cuisines. In his opinion, Sichuan Cuisine had all kinds of flavors and was extremely inclusive. This was the essence of Sichuan Cuisine. Therefore, it couldn't be limited to one cuisine and should learn from others.
"Yes, master," Cheng Zhao Mei nodded solemnly.
This time, the two things that she came to the restaurant for had been successfully completed. Cheng Zhao Mei didn't stay any longer and soon left with Master Li.
As for Yuan Zhou, he took the things that Master Li brought to the kitchen and placed them in a cabinet that was specially used to store the ingredients that were given to him by others. Then, he went to check on the progress of the smoked meat. He found that it still needed some time to finish, so he decided to do other things first.
"I have to ask Auntie Tong about the idea from last time." Yuan Zhou suddenly thought of an idea that he had thought of in the past two days. He immediately took out his phone and looked at the time. It was not yet 4: 00 pm, so he skillfully dialed Boss Tong's number.
"Du du du"
After a few rings, the phone was quickly picked up. Yuan Zhou immediately said, "Good afternoon, Auntie Tong. I hope I didn't disturb you?"
Vaguely, Yuan Zhou seemed to hear the noise over there, and it was quite loud. He was afraid of disturbing someone, so he hurriedly asked.
The other side paused for a while. Perhaps Boss Tong had moved to another place and there was no noise. Then, Boss Tong's energetic female voice came, "I didn't disturb you. I was just hanging out outside. It's okay. How is Yuan these days? Is everything okay?"
Normally, Yuan Zhou would call Boss Tong once a week to learn about her situation and inquire about her health condition conveniently.
This time, Boss Tong received a call in less than a week. She was afraid that something had happened to Yuan Zhou, so she hurried to ask him.
"Don't worry, Auntie Tong. I just have something to ask you," Yuan Zhou said.
"Just tell me what you need. Your Aunt Tong will definitely help." Boss Tong was a sophisticated woman. Hearing Yuan Zhou's tone, she knew that he probably wanted her help, so she expressed her attitude immediately.
"Here's the thing. You said that Mr. Mo was traveling with you. How are you?" Yuan Zhou asked.
Just one or two months ago, Yuan Zhou called Boss Tong. Boss Tong suddenly told him that Mr. Mo was traveling with her now, and he didn't need to worry so much because of the two of them.
From Boss Tong, he also knew that Mr. Mo had been traveling with her all the time, and he just eased up a little recently.
To be honest, with the two of them together, Yuan Zhou was really relieved. This time, he actually hoped to find Mr. Mo through Boss Tong.
As the world's top tailor, Yuan Zhou thought that if Yin Ya's wedding dress was made by him, Yin Ya would be very happy.
Yuan Zhou's idea was actually very simple. Since they were going to get married, he definitely wanted to give Yin Ya an unforgettable wedding, so the wedding dress must be valued. There was nothing more amazing than the wedding dress made by Mr. Mo.
Of course, if Boss Tong hadn't mentioned that Mo Yun was traveling with her now, Yuan Zhou wouldn't have thought of this.
"It's very good, but he is old, so it's a little difficult to make." Boss Tong said grumpily.
Of course, as soon as these words came out, Mo Yun, who was as quiet as a chicken, became a little unconvinced. He thought that he was very strong despite his old age, and his fingers were absolutely flexible in making clothes. Of course, he dared not to refute at this time.
Yuan Zhou heard some sounds over there, but he didn't entangle too much out of respect. Instead, he said, "Here's the thing. I want to ask Mr. Mo to design and make a wedding dress for Ya. I wonder if it's OK now?"
Yuan Zhou's words were a pun. He had always been very concerned about Boss Tong's later life. Since he knew about Mo Yun's matter, he had been helping her secretly, hoping that they could solve the problem face to face. No one could spend 20 or 30 years on it.
He asked this because he wanted to know whether Boss Tong had forgiven Mo Yun or not, and also to see if it was possible to ask Mo Yun to help him. However, because it was an elder's matter, Yuan Zhou naturally needed to control the limit and be a little reserved.
Being asked this time, Boss Tong suddenly blushed a little. Of course, she had seen the wedding dress that carried a lot of emotions. As for whether she had worn it or not, she indicated that it was a secret.
"Yuan wants to ask you to make a wedding dress. Do you agree or not?" Boss Tong directly threw the responsibility to him.
Of course, her eyes were wide open, as if she would punish Mo Yun if he didn't agree.
Mo Yun chuckled and said happily, "No problem. Yuan will send me the size later, and I will start to design it. It will take some time before I can make the model."
Masters often needed inspiration to do things, so did Mo Yun. However, he had seen Yin Ya several times, so he was not a stranger.
Moreover, since Yuan Zhou asked for help, Mo Yun was naturally duty-bound to fulfill his wish now. Previously, Yuan Zhou had helped him a lot.
Only then did Boss Tong nod her head and say to the phone directly, "Yuan, just send me Ya's size later. A good meal never needs to be late. You and Ya are about to get married. I am so happy. I will definitely come back in advance to take care of it."
"I can wait. Moreover, I will need Aunt Tong's help at that time. I still need your advice on many things. I hope you don't mind the trouble." Yuan Zhou let out a sigh of relief inwardly.
This surprise could finally be received by Yin Ya.
"Hahaha. Not at all. Not at all." Boss Tong said happily.
Then, the two of them chatted about some daily life and then hung up the phone. Immediately, Yuan Zhou sent the saved measurements of Yin Ya to Boss Tong's phone. This was what he got from Yin Ya's friend when he wanted to buy a birthday present for her.
"Now Aunt Tong has someone to accompany her. I can rest assured." Yuan Zhou murmured.
After that, Yuan Zhou looked at the cured meat that was still being smoked and found that the first smoke was almost finished. Therefore, he planned to smoke it for the second time. This time, he needed to use the sugar cane dregs and stalks. This step was more to enhance the flavor and color.
His hands were not slow. Yuan Zhou quickly extinguished the original fire and took the cured meat out to cool down. Then, he began to clean the stove.
Although there was a lot of work on hand, Yuan Zhou did it in an orderly and fast manner. Soon, he finished everything in good order.
When he started the second smoke, it was basically time to prepare the ingredients for dinner. It was just right.
Fortunately, there was the system. Otherwise, the smoke smell of the cured meat would definitely cause complaints. Besides, all kinds of smells would be mixed together.
