Chapter 130 Braised Pork Intestines and Potatoes, Braised Pig's Tail [Second Update]...

Once the comments appeared, many people immediately understood everything about Da Tuanzi's behavior.

The next dish served was braised pork chops with apples. Da Tuanzi commented, "The pork chops were very tender, the apples must have been braised for a long time because they lost their shape, the broth was very thick, and it tasted like home cooking."

[Momo: I know, I know! The pork chop was pre-cooked, and so was the apple! The sauce was thickened too much, it didn't taste good!]

[A lucky cat: Congratulations, you've even learned how to answer first!]

After a burst of laughter, the comments section started a puzzle game.

After laughing at the video while eating, the girl looked at her barely touched spicy hot pot, and decisively chose to mute her phone to watch the comments, and then turn up the volume on her tablet.

"Hello everyone, this is Hai Shang Jinse. I'm done with my work and I'll be live streaming now!"

Ren Haijin's large forehead appeared on the screen as he cheerfully carried his three-year-old phone, whose screen was even starting to look a bit gray, into the kitchen.

"Let me show you our dishes for today!"

Wen Fan was busy when he gave Ren Haijin a sharp look, and Ren Haijin obediently pointed the camera at the stove.

Wen Fan turned her head. She hadn't actually planned to do a live stream. After all, she was already so busy. Where would she find the manpower to do a live stream?

However, after Jin Yulou launched the pig-slaughtering banquet, Yao Qingqin reported that Wenji's account was full of doubts.

Some people accused Tian Gang of copying Jin Yu Lou, while others said they were just creating a gimmick, claiming everything was fake, like pigs slaughtered fresh daily. Still others said they started by piggybacking on Jin Yu Lou's success.

"What kind of 'internet celebrity' shop is this? They're just taking advantage of the fact that people don't bother with them, sticking to you like a leech!"

There were too many questions and doubts, and Yao Qingqin was exhausted from dealing with them.

Ji Baiyi said after reading it that someone must have bought black water.

"They are all new accounts. When you click on them, there are only a few videos or they are private accounts. They must have been bought by smugglers."

Ren Haijin was furious after hearing this.

Having worked at Wenji for several days, he had developed a sense of belonging to the company. Now, hearing Ji Baiyi say that Wenji had been smeared, he was indignant and said he would create ten or eight fake accounts to argue with people.

Ji Baiyi pushed up his glasses and said, "Instead of arguing, why don't you start a live stream?"

Ren Haijin looked at Ji Boyi: "Huh?"

“I saw it. It says a big streamer will be live-streaming Jin Yu Lou’s pig-slaughtering feast tonight. In that case, why don’t we also live-stream Wen Ji’s? We can compare the two and just see who has the best skills.”

Wen Fan looked at Ji Baiyi with some approval. She wasn't bothered by the insults, but some people said she was using Jin Yu Lou's marketing tactics against her...

Please, so far, she has only heard of Jin Yu Lou, and doesn't even know which way the store faces!

Now they're accusing her of plagiarism, it's simply unbearable.

Ji Baiyi's frank suggestion to have a contest was a solution that Wen Fan liked.

There's nothing special about being a chef; your skills will prove you right.

Even if you praise it to the skies, it's all for nothing if your cooking doesn't taste good.

"Let's do it this way."

After agreeing to the live stream, Wen Fan prepared several elaborate dishes for the evening, a rare occurrence for him.

One of the dishes is the elaborately shaped pagoda-shaped pork.

When Ren Haijin came in holding his phone, Wen Fan was making this dish.

In the bright kitchen, a pair of hands were quickly cutting meat. Wen Fan used a knife to cut the meat into square rings without stopping. The camera focused on her hands. After the square rings were cut, Wen Fan did not use a special mold for pagoda-shaped meat. Instead, she simply flipped it over, casually stuffed in a handful of dried plum vegetables, and after slightly adjusting the shape, she poured in some sauce.

At this point, Ren Haijin's account already had several hundred people online.

The people were dazzled by the sight and expressed their desire to see the front of the pagoda-shaped meat.

Wen Fan: "This meat needs to be steamed upside down. It will take another two hours. Let's come back in two hours."

As soon as she spoke, the live chat was filled with question marks.

[Momo: I think I just heard a girl's voice!]

[Moonlight: Is she the chef's daughter? The kind and beautiful young lady who delivered the brown sugar water before.]

[The fried eggs are delicious: ...Don't worry about the details! Waaaa, this pagoda-shaped pork looks so delicious, and it's really freshly made!]

[Piggy: Right, right? I was just watching and thinking, actually, when the food is cooked well, it looks even better than mukbang videos! It's just that we have to wait two hours.]

[Guagua: ...Um, can I say that Jin Yulou also makes pagoda-shaped pork? I just came from there. But Jin Yulou doesn't allow photos of the kitchen, and I still think Wen Ji's looks more appetizing.]

[Momo: Stop talking, look! What are they doing now?]

Wen Fan took out the braised pork intestines and cut them into sections. He put the sauce into the pot and stir-fried it until the oil turned red. He then put the pork intestines into the pot and stir-fried them. He added scallions, garlic, chili peppers, ginger slices and other ingredients and stir-fried them together. Wen Fan then added potato slices and stir-fried them until the potato slices were cooked. Then it was ready to serve.

The sight of braised pork intestines and potatoes is so visually striking that it makes your mouth water the moment you lift the lid.

The girl, who had been watching the live stream out of sheer boredom, suddenly felt her stomach rumbling.

When Ren Haijin saw that the dishes were ready, he placed two plates of braised pork intestines and potatoes on a tray, went out of the kitchen, and shouted that the dishes were ready.

Mother Wen: "Two servings of braised pork intestines and potatoes, forty-eight yuan each!"

Steaming hot pork intestines and potato slices cut into half-thick slices. The potato slices are not blanched in water and are half-fried and half-stir-fried with the lard rendered from the pork intestines. The potato slices have a golden-brown color from being fried in oil. Green and red peppers are added just before serving, adding different colors to the dish. Red oil sinks to the bottom of the plate. Just looking at it, you can almost smell the tempting aroma of meat.

As Wen's mother finished speaking, four or five people rushed forward. In the end, the two who ran the fastest got the braised pork intestines and potatoes and happily carried them back to their table. Ren Haijin's camera hadn't switched back to the kitchen yet, so many people could see the way the customers in the restaurant ate, even through the screen.

The bustling little shop was very crowded, with many people crammed onto stools, their faces flushed. They picked up a piece of food with their chopsticks, sweating profusely from the spiciness, and slurping as they ate rice with it. Some even complained that they didn't like rice and asked the shop owner if they had steamed buns or flatbreads.

Mother Wen brought out a basket of sesame cakes: "Pork intestines go well with sesame cakes too. Whoever wants some, come and get some."

The palm-sized sesame seed cake isn't very big. After breaking it in half, you put in a few pieces of pork intestines, then add a few slices of potato. You clasp your hands together, and the red oil from the pork intestines drips down the sesame seed cake.

The live stream suddenly went silent, and the chat went quiet. Hundreds of online fans watched as the red oil from the sesame seed cake almost dripped onto the person's hand, only to be bitten off from below. The cake was crispy, the meat was fragrant, and the potato slices were fried until crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, sticking to the inside of the sesame seed cake.

[Momo: ...Aww, I'm starving!]

[Chengcheng: Give me a bite, just like feeding the chickens, cluck cluck cluck~]

[Carb Plan: ...I almost never thought of this way of eating! Why can you stuff pork intestines and potatoes into a sesame flatbread?!]

[Springtime and Bright Scenery: Oh my god, I suddenly realized that no food broadcast can compare to a live stream from a restaurant. The food looks so fresh and delicious.]

...

The girl watching the live stream nodded frantically. She had unknowingly finished her spicy hot pot, but she still felt hungry!

The fullness in her stomach couldn't satisfy her craving. Watching others eat braised pork intestines in pancakes, she couldn't help but pick up her phone, exit the boring live stream of Jin Yu Lou, and start frantically searching for everything about pork intestines on food delivery platforms.

Ren Haijin filmed everyone's feedback for a while, then went back into the kitchen with his phone in hand.

Wen Fan worked quickly. After removing the edges and corners from each pig, the pure meat could produce a large amount of semi-fat and lean meat, which Wen Fan then cooked into stir-fries.

Dry-pot cauliflower, stir-fried celery with pork, shredded pork with garlic sauce, stir-fried cabbage with pork, stir-fried dried tofu with pork...

After stir-frying seven or eight different dishes, Wen Fan started flipping the clay pot again.

Cut the pig tails into sections, remove the fishy smell first, then stir-fry them in a pot. After stir-frying, add various seasonings and transfer to a clay pot to stew.

Cut the chestnuts in half lengthwise into four pieces, and add a spoonful of soaked soybeans.

After simmering for two hours, Wen Fan opened the clay pot. The white smoke dissipated, revealing that the pig tails inside had a translucent, gelatinous outer layer. A chopstick could easily pierce through a piece. The pig tails, varying in size, had wrinkled skin from the simmering process, exposing a bit of bone inside, and the cross-section faintly showed the internal layers.

The soybeans were stewed until soft and tender, and the chestnuts were also colored.

Wen Fan was very satisfied and asked Ren Haijin to come and take it away.

"This is the only one available."

So far, we've only slaughtered two pigs. Two pigs and two pig tails are barely enough for one pot.

Mother Wen asked for a high price of sixty-eight, and the pot of pig tails was quickly snatched up.

The comments section is going crazy.

If you can imagine the taste of pork intestines, then stewed pork tails, with their aroma, firm skin and meat, and full of collagen, are something that many people have never even seen in a restaurant, let alone eaten!

[Momo: Oh God, I think I'll go watch Big Dumplings instead. At least Jin Yu Lou's food won't make me suddenly have the urge to go out and buy a braised pig's tail in the middle of the night!]

[ChaCha: You think you can buy that at a braised food shop? Pig tails are rarely sold!]

Coco: I'm so hungry! I'm so hungry! I'm really so hungry!

[Solo Trip: This stuff can't possibly be bad! I can even picture the texture of that pig's tail in my mouth, with its elastic skin, crispy, chewy, and fragrant, and the lean meat inside isn't dry at all...]

[Mint: Okay, stop talking... I've already started searching for that orange app, hoping to buy a bag of pig tails online and cook them.]

Just as everyone was going crazy over the pig's tail, someone suddenly posted a comment.

[Mumu: Come quick, something's happened at Da Tuanzi's place! It looks like someone found a pre-made food package in their food!]
