"Be careful. Romeo is waiting at home," said Yuan Zhou.
"Don't worry, Boss Yuan. I got it." Zong Mo felt that the silly dog Romeo wouldn't miss him.
Zong Mo didn't want to think about the silly dog, but he made up his mind that he must find something useful for Yuan Zhou in this rare visit to the Imperial Chef's Tomb.
After saying that, Zong Mo left quickly, mainly because there was a car waiting there. He couldn't delay it.
After sending Zong Mo away, Yuan Zhou continued to play with his chili.
In fact, Hunan Cuisine and Sichuan Cuisine had many similarities. Hunan Cuisine and Sichuan Cuisine were not dominated by chili at the beginning. Chili was only one of the seasonings. Before chili was introduced, the taste of Hunan Cuisine was not dominated by spiciness. For example, the famous Jinggang Eight Bowls had very few spicy dishes. It paid more attention to the original taste of the dishes, which was somewhat similar to Guizhou Cuisine.
Until now, spiciness was the selling point. This was enough to show that many diners now liked stimulating food.
There was a magical thing. Diners from Hunan Province went to the old Chengdu to eat authentic Hunan Cuisine, only to find that Hunan Cuisine was not all spicy.
This was actually quite normal, because it was really difficult to find an authentic and non-spicy restaurant in Shancheng.
From this aspect, it could be seen that the reputation that Yuan Zhou had built over the years had been fermented. The idea that the dishes of The Kitchen God were authentic had been deeply rooted in the hearts of every diner. As Yuan Zhou became more and more famous, this idea was even more deeply rooted.
Therefore, when they ate something different from what they had eaten before, their first reaction was not to doubt Yuan Zhou's craftsmanship, but that other chefs really didn't have this kind of treatment, because it was really difficult to change people's first impressions.
The Kitchen God was bustling until the evening.
"Chief Brew Wan, I heard that you are leaving Chengdu tomorrow. You probably can't drink the monkey wine." Chief Brew Du got the news that Chief Brew Wan would leave Chengdu for another city tomorrow. It seemed that there were some problems in the winery there, and he needed to go there to deal with it.
Head Brew Du had tried several times but failed to get a spot. Today, he finally got lucky, but he was caught by Head Brew Wan again. He owed him a favor, so he had to drink less wine again.
Chief Brewer Du, who was taking pleasure in the calamity, leisurely took a sip of the monkey wine. His eyebrows danced with joy as he happily poked at the other party's wounds.
Unfortunately, Chief Brewer Wan calmly glanced at him and said, "That's true. I'll set off after breakfast tomorrow. If I win, I'll be back on the same day. If not, I'll come back early the day after tomorrow for breakfast."
Chief Brewer Wan's words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, stirring up layers of ripples. The chief brewer who had been watching from the sidelines and secretly rejoicing could no longer sit still.
It should be noted that Chief Brew Wan was the luckiest among them. He could hit the jackpot twice out of ten times. Originally, everyone was quite happy to see him leave. With one less core competitor, everyone's strength would be improved imperceptibly, which was good for everyone.
However, that was not the case at all. Therefore, they might need Chief Brewer Wan to bring them here to drink. Therefore, they all began to attack Chief Brewer Du.
What goes around comes around. This year, it's my turn.
As a result, Chief Brewer Du immediately became the target of public criticism.
The lively time in the pub passed slowly with everyone's jesting. When it was over, everyone had drunk a lot of wine. However, with Mao Ye taking care of the aftermath, everyone was quite relieved.
Some walked together, some called for designated drivers, and some called for taxis. After a busy time, they finally took a break.
"It seems that I can add the phone numbers of some drivers." Yuan Zhou looked at the small notebook in his hand and pondered.
This notebook recorded the phone numbers of drivers who worked overnight and some designated drivers. It was enough before. However, after the pub increased the number of people this time, there were more and more people. Therefore, more and more designated drivers and drivers were needed. Therefore, it was necessary to prepare in advance.
After writing this down, Yuan Zhou began to wash up and make the final preparations before going to bed.
Yin Ya hadn't come back yet. She still needed to stay for a few more days. Due to the time difference, Yuan Zhou said good night early. Soon, with the help of the system, Yuan Zhou fell into a deep sleep.
The night became darker. Even the chirping of the insects became weaker. The light of the stars gradually dimmed, but Venus became brighter.
When the sky turned white, it signaled the arrival of a new day.
When it was time to wake up, Yuan Zhou couldn't sleep in even if he wanted to. His biological clock naturally urged him to wake up. He went to the bathroom to wash up and change his clothes, planning to start his morning jog.
When he went out, Rice and the others were sleeping soundly against Romeo. Due to Romeo's huge size, Rice and the others were almost surrounded by its stomach.
"Awoo, awoo"
Probably because they sensed the familiar scent, they began to howl without opening their eyes. It was quite harmonious.
"I'm going for a jog. You guys continue to sleep," Yuan Zhou said and ran out with big strides.
After jogging today, Yuan Zhou didn't go to the Standby Noodle House to eat. He just asked the boss to take note of the noodles.
"Midsummer is here. Naturally, I should have a bowl of Prawn Noodles." Yuan Zhou planned to have Prawn Noodles for breakfast today.
"Hua La"
Yuan Zhou scooped up the river prawns prepared by the system and found each of them had a big belly. At first glance, he knew the prawns were full of prawn roe. The slightly transparent prawn head and the prawn brain could even be vaguely seen. It could be seen how plump they were.
"System, why do these river prawns look like prawns from Dongting Lake? Aren't the prawns from Taihu Lake good?" Yuan Zhou was a little curious.
Prawn Noodles was a classic noodle dish in Jiangsu Cuisine. It was normal to use prawns from Taihu Lake. Judging from the posture of the prawns, they were obviously from Dongting Lake.
And Dongting Lake was supposed to be related to Hunan Cuisine.
This time, it was a question related to culinary skills. Therefore, the system displayed, "The river prawns used by the system are female prawns that have been specially cultivated. The prawn roe is abundant, the prawn brain is very heavy, and the prawn meat is fresh, tender and delicious. It's already July and the daily underwater temperature of Dongting Lake can reach about 28 degrees Celsius. It's the best time to eat it. The prawns from Taihu Lake can only reach the best taste in August."
Wow, he even picked it up!
"You mean I have a place for raising prawns in both Taihu Lake and Dongting Lake? How can I do that?" Yuan Zhou said straightforwardly.
"…" The system was speechless.
Paying no attention to the mysterious system, Yuan Zhou took out the sieve quickly and intended to filter out the prawn roe and bake it for later use.
Originally, these things could be done in advance. However, Yuan Zhou was very particular about the ingredients. If it could be cooked fresh, it must be cooked fresh. He felt that the taste would be better that way.
After the prawns were soaked in water, Yuan Zhou started to sieve out the prawns. Then, he took the prawns into his hands one by one. With a twist of one hand, the intact prawn brain was squeezed out and put into a bowl at one side. As for the fresh and tender prawn meat, he put it into another bowl and waited for the second use.
The preparation of Prawn Noodles was very tedious. After the prawns were processed, the noodles that had been kneaded before were almost finished.
"Pa Pa Pa"
Yuan Zhou smashed the dough on the chopping board with force. Then, he closed the dough and continued to smash it. Then, he repeated the previous actions in order to increase the strength of the dough. That way, the noodles that were pulled out would be full of tenacity.
The noodles used for Prawn Noodles should be fine noodles. In this way, it would be more refreshing to eat with the prawns.
