"What are you doing at home today? So I thought of making something delicious for you. Try this braised beef I brought back from the state-owned restaurant. It tastes really good." Tian Tian said as she picked up a piece of beef and fed it into Gu Zhao's mouth personally.
Gu Zhao chewed a few bites and swallowed them, his eyes sparkling, "This braised beef tastes really good, who made it?"
"It's the restaurant next to the department store. Maybe there were too few people eating there, so when I went over, they added a few slices of beef for me. I found it tasted really good, so I bought all the braised beef." Tian Tian said.
Gu Zhao handed An An to Tian Tian, then picked up his chopsticks and took a bite of the braised beef. It tasted really good.
"In fact, we can also try to buy beef and braise it ourselves." Tian Tian said, swallowing her saliva. "Not only beef, but also pig offal and other things, we can also braise them together, and braise some side dishes."
She hadn’t tasted the braised beef before, so it wasn’t a big deal. But now she really wants to eat braised food.
What kind of flavor, what kind of black duck, she hasn't eaten them for many years, she has forgotten what they taste like. She only remembers the leisurely and comfortable mood when she was gnawing on the duck neck while watching her favorite TV series.
"Braised food?" Gu Zhao was stunned for a moment after hearing this.
To be honest, he had never eaten braised food. They were usually accustomed to cooking the meat, especially the boneless meat and heart meat, and eating it directly with garlic sauce after cooking. It basically retains the original flavor of the meat and is very popular. Tian Tian also likes to eat that kind of meat, but few people choose to braise the meat.
Of course they do have cooked food, but just from the name of the braised food you can tell that it is quite different from cooked food.
"But do you know how to braise anything? How should this be cooked?" Tian Tian was also a little confused after hearing this.
She only knows how to eat, but she really can’t make braised food.
"It should be made with various medicinal herbs, plus soy sauce, light soy sauce, salt, sugar and so on." Tian Tian said hesitantly.
In her previous life, she sold ready-made braised food packets. She knew that she had to put a lot of medicinal herbs that could be used as seasonings in the packets, but she really didn’t know what to put in them.
Star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves and angelica were the only ingredients she remembered.
"I don't remember the seasoning, but we can try it first. We don't need meat first. Let's buy some vegetables first."
Tian Tian really wanted to eat braised food, so she looked at Gu Zhao with expectant eyes.
Gu Zhao is the best cook in their family. Tian Tian can only cook some home-cooked meals, but Gu Zhao can cook big dishes with the flavors of many dishes. He can know how to cook them just by tasting them.
Gu Zhao couldn't stand such a look.
"Then I'll try it." Gu Zhao said.
Tian Tian almost jumped up when she heard this. If she hadn't been holding An An in her arms, she would have really jumped up and down on the spot.
"Go wash your hands, let's eat quickly." Tian Tian happily carried An An into the house, changed her dirty clothes, and changed into comfortable indoor clothes. Then she held An An and sat on the chair next to the dining table, put the complementary food specially prepared for her in front of her, as well as a cup of milk that Gu Zhao had just made.
An An was drinking milk and eating complementary food, while Tian Tian and the others were eating here.
The next morning, after Tian Tian sent Tian Zhuo off to the station, she went to the grocery store and bought various spices that she thought might be useful.
After I finished shopping, I happened to see that the grocery store had tofu skin, so I bought some tofu skin and kelp and took them home.
Food is also scarce in the middle of winter, and you can't buy whatever you want in the grocery store. You have to see what the store supplies, so for the time being you can only buy tofu skin and kelp.
Tian Tian took the two things home and started to try them out herself, but this kind of thing is not something you can make just by trying.
At least Tian Tian boiled several pots of brine, but they were all thrown away in the end because they tasted too weird.
When Gu Zhao returned home on Saturday and Sunday, he started to take on the task of making brine again, but the final result was the same as Tian Tian's. They used all the spices that Tian Tian bought, but still failed to make a pot of delicious food.
Tian Tian picked up the spice residue in the sink, feeling a little distressed, "What should I do?"
The taste of the soup is completely different from the ones she has eaten. Could it be that all those are made with food additives? Is it impossible to successfully make it without these pure natural ingredients?
At this time, Tian Tian was particularly annoyed that she did not take the time to write down the braised food tutorial she saw on the Internet, otherwise she would not have to go through so much trouble now.
Gu Zhao also squatted next to Tian Tian and studied together.
He could no longer taste anything in his mouth. After the past few days of being buffeted by the sour, spicy, bitter and salty brine, he felt that his taste buds had been severely damaged.
"Do you have any finished products so I can taste how the flavor is made? We can't just try to make it like this without knowing anything, right?" Gu Zhao said.
He didn't even know what the braised food Tian Tian was talking about tasted like.
Tian Tian was even more upset after hearing this. If she knew, would she still be here and ask Gu Zhao to make it? The key point is that she hasn't eaten it for a long time, and braised food is not available for purchase.
But Gu Zhao’s cooking skills are very good. As long as he tastes it once, he will definitely be able to copy it exactly, if not copy it.
Thinking of this, Tian Tian began to worry again about how she could let Gu Zhao taste this braised food.
Tian Tian squatted on the ground and thought for a long time, then suddenly jumped up, scaring Gu Zhao who was standing next to her.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"I know who to ask for the seasoning for this braised food package." After saying that, Tian Tian ran into the living room, sat on the sofa and made a phone call.
She really forgot everything. Although she didn't have a backpack in her space, wasn't there another person who might have such a thing in her space, Li Jiuniang? She was really stupid. If she didn't have one, she could ask Li Jiuniang if he had one, right?
Tian Tian called Li Jiuniang. As soon as she made the call, she felt a little regretful.
It was morning now. Although their factory had a break every week, people like Li Jiuniang who were doing their own business did not have much time to rest. Maybe Li Jiuniang was busy at this time. I didn't know if it would disturb her work.
