Chapter 70 Grilled Squid
After listening to what the male employee Xiao Liu said, Butler Xue let him go.
Since Hong Enping asked them to believe in Hong Shiqiong's medical skills, then they should believe it.
Hong Shiqiong's prescription has been written here, and it contains seven or eight ingredients including salvia miltiorrhiza, Panax notoginseng, peach kernel, safflower, etc.
"You arrange for someone to gather these herbs, simmer them, and consume them three times a day for three days."
She took out another piece of paper with words written on it, which listed various medicinal foods such as longan, red dates, lotus seeds, yam, lily and white fungus.
"The first three herbs soothe the mind and calm the spirit, the middle three nourish yin and moisten dryness, and the last three..." Hong Shiqiong instructed one by one, "After you finish eating those herbs, cook these to nourish your body."
After saying that, Hong Shiqiong walked to Ms. Fang's bed again, took out a small wooden box from her backpack, opened it, and there was a candle inside.
Light the candles, the flames dance and emit a soothing aroma.
Hong Shiqiong took out a gray palm-sized scroll and spread it out. It was full of needles.
This requires acupuncture.
With a calm expression, she first used a tongue of fire to burn the needle to disinfect it.
Then the doctor found the acupuncture point and inserted the needle. After only a few injections, Ms. Fang opened her eyes and her vision became clear.
She was helped to sit up, and then she saw a woman in a long robe and tied hair, sorting things next to her.
"Madam, you are finally awake!" Butler Xue said happily.
"What happened?" Ms. Fang's complexion slowly returned to normal, but she could not quite remember some things.
Butler Xue then told her about her confusion, vomiting, diarrhea, and pain all over her body.
He did not forget to introduce Hong Shiqiong: "This Miss Hong is the great-niece of Hong Enping, the head of the Spiritual Medicine Hall. In other words, Miss Hong calls Hong Enping her great-uncle. It was this Miss who saved you!"
After hearing this, Ms. Fang excitedly said to Hong Shiqiong, "Thank you so much, Miss Hong! Butler Xue, please go to the storeroom and get my jewelry box."
"It's okay. Madam has been worried and ill recently, so you should take care of yourself. How about I teach you a set of Tai Chi these few days? You can practice it when you have time to strengthen your body."
When Ms. Fang heard this, she accepted it with pleasure.
So, Hong Shiqiong simply stayed at the Chen family so that she could take care of Ms. Fang's health.
Anyway, Ye Shuyi needs to prepare for the cooking competition these days, so she doesn't need to come to the store.
As soon as Ye Shuyi finished making the boat porridge and steamed fish, she received a message from Chen's employees saying that Ms. Fang was no longer in danger.
As expected, it’s Hong Shiqiong.
After hearing this, Ye Shuyi felt much more relieved.
The cooking competition was held as scheduled with great fanfare.
A total of several hundred chefs participated, including famous chefs such as Fengcheng Restaurant’s head chef Fan Dacheng, rising star Ye Shuyi, as well as some less famous chefs and amateurs.
Ye Shuyi saw many familiar faces, such as people from the Food Alliance.
Some of them sat on the judges' bench.
If we talk about the C position of the judges' panel, it has to be Xie Liuhua.
He looked to be in his forties or fifties, with black hair that was rather casual. He looked like someone who was out of this world and enjoying the world.
Next to him is his wife, who is also very elegant, with bright eyes and as energetic as a young girl.
"Chef Xie's wife was originally a dancer. She dances so gracefully, it's said she's like a goddess descending to earth!"
"After marrying the chef, his wife stopped performing publicly and became a gourmet chef."
"The chef is responsible for cooking and she is responsible for eating. What a happy life!"
"The Kitchen God is not only responsible for cooking, but also for other household chores. His wife Meimei just follows him around and travels around. Not long ago, he even went to the United States."
"very nice."
People around were talking about the carefree and happy life of Xie Liuhua and his wife, Ms. Su.
"Who do you think will be the champion of this cooking competition?"
"It's hard to say, it's a battle of gods. Xie Liuhua has won the championship three times in a row, and the runner-up has always been Fan Dacheng of Fengcheng. Last year, Xie Liuhua finally stopped participating, and Fan Dacheng thought he could finally win the championship..."
"Hahaha, I know that. He thought he could finally win the championship, but who knew that Cheng Yaojin would appear halfway and win the championship, Liao Tao, the owner of Hewei Food House."
"He's still number two."
Liao Tao also participated in the competition this time.
Hewei Food Court is also very famous in Hong Kong Island and ranks among the top five.
When Ye Shuyi heard the discussion, she looked around and soon saw Liao Tao following everyone's gaze.
This woman has a good appearance, charming eyes, a well-proportioned figure, and is a good cook. She is only 35 years old and is the dream lover of many men.
She is divorced with a daughter and has made a name for herself with her cooking skills.
Ye Shuyi admired him in her heart, and silently looked away, and saw Fan Dacheng, who was also a hot topic.
He was a bear-like man, wearing a white chef's uniform, a chef's hat and a mask, which covered most of his face, leaving only a pair of small green bean-like eyes exposed.
"Dear contestants, thank you for your participation in this cooking competition. I hope you can perform at your best, show your due strength, and achieve ideal results!" The speech was given by Mr. Pan, the president of the Food Alliance and the owner of Fengcheng Restaurant.
Ye Shuyi once exchanged cooking skills with him.
The speech was simple, and after that the competition began.
The competition was held in a large hotel with lobby on each floor.
The organizers provide ordinary pots, pans, and a gas stove.
But some people don’t cook simple dishes, but bake, make desserts and so on.
Then you need to bring the tools over.
For example, Ye Shuyi asked someone to bring all the barbecue utensils over.
With the shout of "Game on", the contestants quickly started cooking.
The game lasts three hours.
Everyone was busy showing off their skills. Some were cutting vegetables, some were kneading dough, and some had already started heating the oil in the pan.
It crackles and emits a rich aroma.
Ye Shuyi was going to barbecue this time. She calmly spread out the ingredients, put on disposable gloves, and skewered the ingredients to be grilled with bamboo sticks.
It’s not that it can’t be strung together in advance, but Ye Shuyi calculated the time and there’s still time to do it on the spot.
The taste will be just right when it is done.
If you bake it an hour or two in advance, it will be cold and not as tasty.
She skewered shredded squid.
Yes, although she said it was barbecue, it was also very vague.
She doesn't mean to grill the food on the grill like grilled oysters or like in barbecue restaurants on the market.
What she is going to make this time is actually - grilled squid!
She skillfully skewered the squid and placed it in a basket for later use.
Then she wiped the iron plate on the oven and turned on the fire.
Wait until the water is completely dry, then add peanut oil.
The aroma of oil is everywhere.
The squids she chose were all relatively large. When she put them in gently, they made a sizzling sound, and the freshness of the squid mixed with the aroma of oil. The tenderness of the squid was roasted at high temperature, becoming cooked and its color darkened.
