Chapter 658: Thousand Flavor Grass, Braised Meat
656
As long as He Tiantian likes it.
"We agreed that we must find someone to work at that time. You don't want to do it, otherwise I won't agree." Huo Yingjie said, "Besides the braised meat shop, do you have any other ideas?"
He Tiantian thought for a while and said, "Yes, I also want to open a pastry shop. I don't think the machines are available in China, but I can ask my parents to import them for me from abroad." These are for civilian use and do not involve confidentiality. They should be able to get them back. "
Huo Yingjie thought for a while and said: "Okay, you don't need to buy too much. I will research it for you when I have time and get some machines suitable for our country. I will also think about those pots and tools for braised meat. Yes. Those who use machines, use machines to save labor and make people less tired.”
He Tiantian nodded repeatedly and said: "Yeah, for example, to remove the feathers of chickens and ducks, you can make something. When the chickens and ducks move around in it, the hair will fall off. You only need to manually pluck out the small hairs on it!"
Huo Yingjie's eyes lit up, he nodded and said, "Yeah, okay, I'll note it down."
The two talked until late at night. Huo Yingjie took out his notebook and recorded many good ideas in it.
He Tiantian's current short-term goal is to make money and build a big house on the edge of Xuanwu Lake. Then he will ask Qi Zhengmin to help.
Early the next morning, Huo Yingjie went to get a pig's head, a chicken, and a duck.
Huo Yingjie finished cleaning up, and He Tiantian also prepared the ingredients.
"Brother Yingjie, where are the ingredients from the back mountain of Qijia Village that you mentioned?" He Tiantian asked. The taste of her cooking was already in her mind. She wanted to try the ingredients provided by Huo Yingjie.
Maybe there will be a big discovery.
Huo Yingjie entered the room and took out a handful from his bag, saying, "That big pot only takes a few centimeters."
Huo Yingjie was about to throw the dried grass into the cauldron when He Tiantian stopped him.
"Let me take a look." He Tiantian took it, just like an ordinary mother-in-law's leaf, light green and without any smell, "What is this called?"
"Qianweicao." Huo Yingjie said, "Everyone will have the taste they want when they eat something made with this ingredient."
He Tiantian was stunned and said, "It sounds a bit mysterious. Is there such a thing in the world?"
"Yes!" Huo Yingjie, "It's very mysterious to begin with. I searched half the mountain before I found one. If you want more, you need to plant more. The spiritual energy in the back mountain of Qijia Village is thin. It can only be planted in a cave in the back mountain.”
"Then let me try it first!" He Tiantian said, "By the way, we have made so much meat, and we will invite the students over for dinner tomorrow night."
"Okay!" Huo Yingjie nodded.
This morning, He Tiantian had no class, but Huo Yingjie did.
He Tiantian put everything in a large pot, poured in water, put in the powdered ingredient packets and the five or six centimeters long Qianwei grass, put them in, brought to a boil over high heat, and the boy stewed.
This would take several hours, and He Tiantian had to watch nearby to prevent the children from coming over.
But the aroma from the kitchen came out from time to time, causing Huo Ruimin to keep pointing at the kitchen and shouting: "Meat, meat, mom, meat..."
Although Huo Ruihua didn't shout, his nose twitched from time to time and he inhaled the aroma coming from the kitchen.
"It's not ready yet!" He Tiantian said, "It will be ready in a while, and we will eat it again."
"Eat, eat..." Huo Ruimin's mouth dripped with clear saliva, "Mom, eat..."
Huo Ruihua, who had always been reserved, was no longer reserved. He shouted with his sister: "Eat, mom, eat, meat..."
Grandma Wang was on the side and laughed loudly.
"Hey, these two kids are so funny." Grandma Wang said with a smile, "I don't usually see such nice talkers!"
"Haha, it smells very good." He Tiantian smiled and said, "Grandma Wang, smell it, does it smell good?"
"It smells very good." Grandma Wang gave a thumbs up. "Your craftsmanship is so good. If you open a store, people will probably line up to buy it from morning to night."
He Tiantian smiled and said: "Grandma Wang, please eat more later and give me some suggestions. If it tastes good, I will open a braised meat shop."
"Haha, do you really want to open a store?" Grandma Wang asked, "Opening a store is very hard and tiring!"
"Isn't Grandma Wang opposed to opening a store?" He Tiantian said, "After all, now I feel that doing business is not possible."
"No way!" Grandma Wang said with a smile, "I was sold by my parents when I was seven years old, and I have been serving the old lady since I was a child. At that time, the old lady's family was doing business, and life was prosperous. Fire, it’s fine!”
"Haha, I also think that business is good." He Tiantian said, "I am only responsible for making the seasonings, and other people will be asked to do the rest. The store will also find suitable people to look after it, so that I will not be tired. "
"Yes, you can spend money to find people to work so that you are not tired and you can make more money." Grandma Wang said, telling He Tiantian some of her experiences when she was young. The one she heard most about was doing business with the old lady. It’s okay to taste it all.
In the evening, Jiang Lifang came home from get off work and rushed directly into the kitchen.
He Tiantian was breaking off chicken legs, one for each of the two children.
It was just right for the adults, but He Tiantian thought it was a bit salty for the children, so she peeled the two chicken legs, washed them in warm water, and then gave them to the two children to eat.
Jiang Lifang gnawed on the chicken wings and said, "Tiantian, why do I think the braised pork made today tastes better than before?"
"Yes, there is an extra seasoning in the braised soup, so it is more fragrant than before." He Tiantian smiled and said, "Is it delicious?"
"It's delicious. It's the best I've ever eaten." Jiang Lifang said, "Oh, it's a pity that your father-in-law is not here. Otherwise, he would definitely drink a few glasses of wine with such delicious dishes."
"Haha, I'll cook for him when my father-in-law comes back." He Tiantian smiled, "Mom, take the children in. I'll cut the dishes and bring them in. Let's eat."
Today, there are not only braised chicken and braised duck, but also braised pork. I cut a plate of the same, and picked some cold cucumbers, sugar tomatoes, and rice to bring to the dining room.
Huo Yingjie came back from school and it was time for dinner.
The braised meat He Tiantian made this time was praised by everyone.
The two children wanted to eat more after eating the chicken legs, but they were stopped. Eating too much meat at night would cause food accumulation and poor digestion.
When only He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie were there at night, He Tiantian was even happier and said, "Brother Yingjie, it tastes really good. I have never eaten such delicious braised meat. If I could give 80 points for braised meat before, I can give 120 points for braised meat today."
"Haha, with such seasonings, there is no need to worry about bad business." Huo Yingjie said, "Sometimes I think about doing business with you. I don't want to work in the research institute."
