Chapter 1079 Lose Your Reputation
The last remaining warmth of the noodles was taken away by the cool oil, and now the cold noodles were completely cold. Yuan Zhou's final preparations only left another side dish, cucumber shreds.
But the cucumber shreds need to be fresher than the chicken shreds, so Yuanzhou should start preparing the chicken shreds first.
Shredded chicken, some people use chicken thighs to make the chicken firm and elastic, but the standard way to make cold shredded chicken noodles is to use chicken breast.
But chicken breast is the most difficult piece of meat to cook. The meat will become hard immediately if it is not cooked well. If it is not cooked well, it will be raw and you can still see blood stains.
It is neither old nor old, and the meat must be tender and capable of being torn into strips by hand. Yuanzhou spent a lot of effort to prepare it at such a heat.
And when he first learned how to make cold shredded chicken noodles, Yuan Zhou deliberately failed just to gain more experience.
After all, the master-level experience of predecessors is a precious treasure, but you can be more aware of your own failures.
The chicken shreds are boiled and shredded by hand. The white jade-like meat is about one finger long and even in thickness, because it is hand-shred chicken shreds with silky edges.
"Wow!" Yuanzhou turned on the faucet again and started washing the cucumbers.
Naturally, these cucumbers are picked freshly from the cabinet, and there is even green juice on the cut ends.
There are small yellow flowers on the top of each cucumber, and the small thorns on the body tell Yuan Zhou that it is fresh.
The clear water washed the emerald green cucumbers, and the burrs on them were washed away with the water. After washing them, Yuan Zhou put them aside in a large white porcelain basin to drain.
Yuan Zhou, who has obsessive-compulsive disorder, carefully arranged the heads and tails of the cucumbers neatly. The heads and tails of chopstick-length cucumbers were placed side by side.
As soon as Yuan Zhou turned off the water, two voices suddenly sounded: "Good morning, Boss Yuan." "Good morning, Master Yuan."
This is when Zhou Jia and Technician Cheng arrived, and they were standing at the door.
"Morning." Yuan Zhou nodded.
After saying hello, Technician Cheng looked at Yuan Zhou worriedly as usual, then picked up the rag and began to wipe it hard.
On the other side, Zhou Jia took the warm water placed aside and started washing the rag.
This was naturally prepared by Yuan Zhou.
There is warm water in this basin all year round. It has been like this since Mu Xiaoyun came to work here.
Zhou Jia and Technician Cheng didn't say anything. They heard that there was a thief here on the way here, but the time in the morning was too short. They didn't dare to disturb Yuan Zhou, so they didn't ask. They just went about their business seriously.
Soon, a long queue formed outside the store. The first one was naturally Wu Hai, followed by Yin Ya. Yin Ya came very early today and was the second in line.
"Please come in for the first twelve people to dine." With Zhou Jia's voice, the quiet store suddenly became lively.
"Breakfast, shredded chicken cold noodles." Yuan Zhou stood in the middle of the kitchen and said.
"Great, I've been wanting to have a bowl of cold noodles in the morning. I want a bowl." The first person to order was none other than Zhao Yingjun.
"Give me a bowl of cold noodles." Yin Ya pursed her light red lips and said softly.
"Okay." Yuan Zhou responded, then turned around and started mixing noodles.
The cold noodles were poured into a large white porcelain bowl. You could vaguely see the noodles bouncing because of their good elasticity. Then Yuan Zhou put in the ingredients one by one.
Mung bean sprouts that looked soft after being boiled, white jade-colored chicken shreds, and freshly cut green cucumber shreds. Finally, Yuan Zhou poured a spoonful of bright red oil on these ingredients with his right hand.
The white bowl, golden noodles, emerald green cucumber shreds, translucent mung bean sprouts, jade white chicken shreds and bright red oil create strong colors.
"Sa Sa" Yuan Zhou shook the porcelain bowl with one hand and stirred with the wooden chopsticks in the other hand. After a while, the cold noodles were ready.
Finally, Yuan Zhou dropped in the balsamic vinegar, which brought out all the flavors of the cold noodles, making it spicy and appetizing.
"Please use your cold noodles slowly." Yuan Zhou held a white porcelain plate with a mountain of cold noodles on it and placed it directly in front of Yin Ya.
"Well, thank you." Yin Ya raised her head and thanked her.
"You're welcome." After Yuan Zhou said this, he turned and left, continuing to make noodles.
"It looks so good." Yin Ya smiled, then looked down at the cold noodles.
Although I didn't say this to the cold noodles, the fact is that the cold noodles are really good in appearance.
"I had cold noodles for breakfast. It seems I will have to eat something else to be full later." Yin Ya mumbled helplessly as she smelled the appetizing cold noodles.
"Forget it, let's eat noodles first." Yin Ya picked up a piece of cold noodles with her right hand and carefully fed it into her mouth.
The yellow outer layer of the cold noodles is now wrapped in light red. When you put it into your mouth, you will first taste an extremely spicy taste that explodes directly on your tongue. Before it can calm down, a fragrant sourness spreads in your mouth. The pungent smell was suppressed at once.
"Hiss" Yin Ya woke up early in the morning with a sleepy spirit. At this time, the spicy, sour and fragrant taste rushed directly into her throat.
Yin Ya chewed unconsciously. The noodle soup bounced around her teeth and was very chewy. From time to time, there was a crunching sound of mung bean sprouts being bitten off in her mouth.
And every time I bite off a bite of bean sprouts, there is a fragrance of vegetables in my mouth that mixes with the spicy and stimulating taste buds.
"I feel a lot more energetic." Yin Ya said with satisfaction after chewing a mouthful of noodles carefully.
Then Yin Ya added another chopstick, and this time she put shredded chicken and cucumber into her mouth along with the noodles.
Yuan Zhou's cucumbers are cut very well. He doesn't like to use tools to grate them, so Yuan Zhou cuts the cucumbers by hand.
Each stick has emerald green skin on both ends and white-green cucumber flesh in the middle. It's best mixed with cold noodles.
If chewed together with cold noodles, it has the crispness of cucumbers, the elasticity of cold noodles, and the meaty flavor of shredded chicken.
Although the shredded chicken is silky, it doesn't stick to your teeth. It snaps into pieces with a little chewing. It has the natural tenderness of chicken. When you chew it carefully, the gravy will pop out, adding more layers of flavor to the plain cold noodles.
When she started eating, Yin Ya was very careful about her appearance. After all, she wore light makeup and bright red lipstick, and it was easy to get cold noodles in her mouth if she wasn't careful.
Therefore, when taking the first bite, Yin Ya moved gracefully, carefully rolled the cold noodles and stuffed them into her mouth. But after that, Yin Ya didn't care about the lipstick on her lips or her image at all.
Bite after bite, Yin Ya ate very attentively. Her light red lips turned red because of the bright spicy oil, making her look even more beautiful.
"It's delicious, but it's still too little." Yin Ya looked at the empty plate resentfully, then looked at Yuan Zhou with sad eyes.
But Yuan Zhou stood upright in the kitchen, unmoved at all, but retreated slightly and without a trace.
"No, I have to rush to work." Yin Ya used her strong self-control to avoid licking the plate like Wu Hai next to her.
Yes, this time the plate with cold noodles still had a faint layer of red oil after eating, and Wu Hai was licking the plate intently.
Of course, before licking it, Wu Hai said: "I want others to know that it was you, Yuan Zhou, who ate too little of the food and made me not full, so I licked the plate."
Wu Hai looked like he wanted to ruin Chef Yuan Zhou's reputation. He licked the plate very seriously, as if this could hide the fact that he was greedy.
