Chapter 50 Beef Offal 2
The next morning, a freshly slaughtered fragrant fruit cow was delivered from the auction.
Of course, the auction house is only responsible for slaughtering the cattle, not for processing them.
Therefore, Mo Qingyan still needs to deal with it.
This beef is easy to handle. Just divide each part of the beef separately.
But it takes some effort to process the beef offal.
Mo Qingyan first processed the beef bones and used them to make soup.
Cooking beef offal is just like cooking noodles.
Noodles are important, and the soup base is also important.
The same is true for cooking beef offal.
The soup base for beef offal must be made from beef bones.
Only the soup base made from beef bones will taste delicious.
It just takes time to make the beef bone soup base.
Therefore, before processing other beef offal, you must first make beef bone soup.
Because Mo Qingyan is going to make a lot of beef offal this time.
Therefore, many large pots were specially prepared.
Fortunately, his kitchen is big enough, so more than a dozen people can handle the work.
Making beef offal is complicated, but also simple.
It's complicated, for those who don't know how to handle it.
If you know how to handle beef offal, it will find it simple.
It just takes some effort.
Things like tripe and intestines are difficult to handle.
Remove excess fat from the tripe and intestines, clean them, and then add salt and cornstarch to rub them.
Rub for ten minutes and then wash it off.
Then, add salt and cornstarch again and knead again.
Then wash it again, add salt and cornstarch again, then pour in some cooking wine and water, and then knead it again.
The purpose of this is to directly knead out the residue in the tripe and intestines.
It can also remove the smell of tripe and intestines.
After kneading for about ten minutes, clean the tripe and intestines.
This cleaning method is also very effective for cleaning pig stomachs, pig intestines, or chicken intestines.
Young masters and young ladies like Song Beichen usually don't do any housework, so it's really difficult for them to handle these ingredients.
Especially when they smelled the beef offal, they almost vomited.
Seeing that they all looked as if their parents had died, Mo Qingyan drove them out of the kitchen. Asking them to help here was totally counterproductive.
It would be better to ask them to go out and help peel the garlic.
It just so happened that he needed to make garlic chili sauce.
Fortunately, there are people like Zhang Ma who can help prepare the ingredients, otherwise Mo Qingyan would be too busy to handle it all by herself.
After processing all the beef offal in the same way, start boiling water.
After the water boils, add onion, ginger, garlic, then put the beef offal in and blanch them.
During the blanching process, you need to constantly skim off the blood, foam and other debris that come out of the beef offal.
This is the only way to more thoroughly remove the odor of beef offal.
After the beef offal is blanched, serve and set aside.
The whole processing process requires a lot of patience.
After the audience in the live broadcast room saw the scene of Mo Qingyan processing cow tripe and cow intestines, they immediately felt how difficult it was for Mo Qingyan.
"Why do I suddenly feel a little embarrassed to let a rich second-generation do such rough work?"
"Yeah, I can't associate these dirty offal with the glamorous rich second generation. But it happens that the glamorous rich second generation is doing these dirty and tiring jobs right in front of us."
"If you ask me, Brother Mo is really different from other rich second-generations. Look at Song Beichen and the others, they just looked at it for a few seconds and didn't even start. But Brother Mo personally taught others how to handle beef offal."
"Maybe it's because Brother Mo does everything himself that his cooking skills are so good. Because he really puts his heart into making delicious food."
"Before, I was wondering why Mo Ge's hands had so many calluses. Now I finally understand."
"So, look, even a rich second-generation like Brother Mo has to work so hard, what reason do we have not to work hard?"
…
To be honest, Mo Qingyan's method of processing ingredients is useful. But because it means getting your hands dirty.
What's more, the animal's internal organs smell really bad.
So, many people actually find it disgusting when watching it.
Not to mention Song Beichen and others who could smell the smell at the scene.
So it’s normal that they can’t stand it.
After all the beef offal are cooked in separate pots, wait until the beef bone soup is almost cooked, then separate the beef offal into different parts, put them into the beef bone soup at a certain time, and then add the spice bag specially prepared by Mo Qingyan. Keep boiling.
The so-called spice bag was what Mo Qingyan bought at the pharmacy yesterday in order to cook beef offal.
The reason why he went to the pharmacy was because almost all the spices and ingredients he needed were Chinese medicinal herbs, which were only available in pharmacies.
When cooking beef offal, in addition to the quality of the beef offal itself, the ingredients used to cook the offal are also very important.
Mo Qingyan went to the pharmacy specifically to buy a bag of spices that contained sixteen kinds of spices.
In addition to the basic spices such as pepper, star anise and tangerine peel used to make the beef brisket pot yesterday, bay leaves, angelica, fresh cinnamon, white cardamom, etc. were also added.
The biggest function of these newly added spices is to remove the fishy smell.
Although the beef offal has been processed, these spices are still needed to completely remove the fishy smell.
At the same time, the time and method of cooking beef offal are also very important.
Parts like beef tripe and tendon which are more tough need to be boiled longer, while parts like beef lung which are not so tough can be added in later.
As the beef offal began to cook, a rich aroma began to waft out of the kitchen.
In the living room, Song Beichen and others who were peeling garlic couldn't help but inhale sharply.
“It smells so good!”
"This smell is even better than yesterday's beef brisket stew."
"What should I do? It smells better and better. When will this be ready? I feel like I can't hold it any longer."
"I can't help it either, it smells so good. But it won't be ready so quickly. Didn't Brother Mo say that the beef offal needs to be boiled for several hours?"
Song Beichen and others continued to endure, peeling garlic while glancing towards the kitchen.
Those eyes seemed to be glued to the kitchen.
The longer the beef offal is cooked, the richer the aroma becomes.
Mo Qingyan used a secret recipe to cook this beef offal. The aroma is several times richer than that of beef brisket stew and three-fresh dumplings.
The fragrance not only filled Mo Qingyan's large flat, but also drifted away.
Not to mention the floors above and below next door, the entire neighborhood could smell it.
"What a nice smell, what is that smell?"
"What's that smell? Why is it so fragrant?"
"Oh my god, it smells so good."
"No, I can't handle it. It smells too good. What on earth is that smell?"
"Mom, it smells so good, what is this smell? I want to eat it."
"Dad, I want to eat this delicious food. I'm hungry. I must eat this delicious food."
"Quick, go find out what this smell is."
…
Adults and children alike can’t resist this fragrance!
Children, in particular, have weak willpower.
When I smelled such a delicious aroma, my saliva immediately started watering and I cried and made a fuss about wanting to eat this delicious thing.
The adults really had no choice but to find out what the fragrance was.
Called security directly.
After all, the security guards in high-end residential areas are collectively called all-round nannies.
Anyway, it’s right to find security if you have any problems.
Then, the security department received many calls from property owners.
"Fragrance? Yes, yes, we smelled it too. But I'm sorry, we don't know what it is."
"Shall we go and find out?"
"Okay, okay, don't worry, we will find out everything."
Several security guards hung up the phone with a wry smile.
Then ask the security captain.
"Captain, what should we do? How should we find out? This fragrance seems to be coming from the community, but there are so many residents in the community, we can't ask one by one, right?"
"Yeah, if we do that, we're sure to get complaints."
The security captain also looked embarrassed. "Of course I know, but so many owners have called us, it would be bad if we don't deal with it. Let's see who has a better nose. Smell the smell and identify which building it belongs to, and then we will go directly to that building to look for it."
"At least we can narrow the scope of the search a little bit."
At this moment, a new security guard in the corner raised his hand.
"Captain, I know which building the owner is from, and I also know what the fragrance is."
"You know?" The security captain asked him in shock, "How did you know?"
The new security guard raised his phone and said with a silly smile, "That, I learned from watching Brother Mo's live broadcast."
At this moment, the picture on his mobile phone was the picture of Mo Qingyan cooking beef offal.
"Isn't this Mr. Mo?" The security captain recognized Mo Qingyan on the screen at a glance.
This is the owner of a 1801-square-meter flat.
The large flat where Mo Qingyan lives is the most expensive flat in the entire community.
In addition, Mo Qingyan is also the most handsome among all the owners.
The most important thing is that every time Mo Qingyan goes in and out, there is a cameraman following her.
Therefore, everyone in the security team knew Mo Qingyan.
Although he knew that there was a cameraman following Mo Qingyan, the security captain always thought that Mo Qingyan was filming a video or something.
After all, young people nowadays like to make videos and jokes.
Unexpectedly, Mo Qingyan was actually live streaming.
And it’s a live variety show.
"What dish is Mr. Mo cooking?" The security captain couldn't help swallowing.
The new security guard replied, "Beef offal. Mr. Mo is going to set up a stall to sell beef offal at Guangyuan Square across the street."
Speaking of beef offal, the new security guard became excited.
"Captain, you don't know. Yesterday, Mr. Mo went to the Mengdeli Auction in City A. He spent 10 million and bought four cows."
"This beef offal is made from the cow that is worth 2.5 million yuan."
In fact, the price of the first three cows was only 2 million.
However, the audience fans averaged the price of the four cows, and it came to 2.5 million per cow!
"2.5 million for a cow?" The security captain asked in surprise, "What kind of cow is that? Is it inlaid with gold?"
"It's Xiangguo cattle."
"Is it the fragrant fruit cow that is worth as much as gold?"
Although the security captain had never eaten Xiangguo beef, he had heard of it.
Do you know the price of Xiangguo cattle beef?
That's really exaggerated.
I heard that a good xiangguo steak costs at least 100,000 yuan per pound.
At least!
If it is good, it may even cost hundreds of thousands.
Therefore, the Xiangguo Cow is also known as the Cow inlaid with Gold.
"Using Xiangguo beef to make offal and sell it at a stall? How much would it cost? Can it be sold?" The security captain was so shocked that he smacked his lips. "Oh my goodness, this rich guy really knows how to have fun."
"Brother Mo said he was going to sell it for 100 yuan a serving. How could it not sell? People must have started lining up at Guangyuan Square by now. I was originally planning to ask for leave from you, the captain, so I could line up to buy beef offal."
The young security guard directly stated all the reasons why he wanted to take leave.
"100 yuan per serving? Are you sure? This is Xiangguo Beef!" The security captain didn't quite believe it.
"That's right. Last time, Brother Mo spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy seafood and black pork dumplings, and he sold them for 100 yuan a basket."
The young security guard said with a look of regret: "Unfortunately, I went too late last time and didn't even get in line."
"You didn't come here to work as a security guard just because you wanted to queue up close to buy the food made by Mr. Mo, did you?" The security captain looked at him suspiciously. "I was wondering at the time, why did you, a top student from B University, suddenly come here to apply for a security job."
"Hehe..." The security guard who was guessed touched his nose and said embarrassedly: "The main reason is that the salary here is high. Anyway, I will be a security guard when I get old. I can just skip the process and reach the end of retirement. Isn't that good?"
"What you said makes sense." The security captain himself is not very old, just under 40 years old.
Moreover, there are age limits for security in these high-end residential areas.
Basically, no one wants people over 60.
The security captain said to the young security guard and the others, "Come on, now that we know the truth, let's tell the owners. This way, they won't call us so hard that our phone will explode."
"yes."
A group of security guards immediately picked up the phone and called the owners who had called to ask questions one by one.
"You just said that you wanted to take a leave, right?" the security captain asked the young security guard.
The little security guard said, "Yes, I want to take half a day off to queue up to buy beef offal. Of course, you can deduct the salary as much as necessary. I will definitely not object."
"What time did Mr. Mo set up his stall? It seems that his beef offal is not ready yet." The security team leader looked at the live broadcast room on his mobile phone and saw that Mo Qingyan was still busy.
"The stall is open at 5 o'clock. But many people will line up around 12 o'clock. It will probably be even earlier today. So, you have to go early, otherwise you won't be able to buy it."
"Okay, I've approved your leave. I won't deduct your salary. But the condition is that you have to bring me some beef offal."
The security captain took a deep breath of the fragrance wafting from the community, then looked at the three large pots of beef offal cooked by Mo Qingyan in the live broadcast room.
If he didn't have to work and couldn't leave, he would have wanted to queue up to buy beef offal.
"Ah?" The little security guard said in embarrassment: "But Captain, the things made by Brother Mo are limited in quantity. Each person can only buy one."
"Then you buy one and leave half for me." The security captain thought that he only needed to taste it, and half a portion should be enough.
"This..." The young security guard looked embarrassed.
"Why, you don't want to? Fine then." The security captain said with his hands behind his back, "Then you continue to work, and I will pretend that I didn't hear you asking for leave."
"No!" The young security guard grabbed the security captain's arm, gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and gave in.
"Okay, after I buy it, I'll leave half for you, Captain."
Even half a portion is better than nothing.
Next, many owners of Guangming Garden received calls back from security personnel.
They were informed of the source of the unknown fragrance in the community.
When they found out that it was the owners of a large flat in Building 1801 in the community who were making the Xiangguo beef offal, the owners were speechless.
The entire community knew that a 1,801-square-foot flat was sold for 45 million two weeks ago.
Can someone who can spend so much money to buy a large apartment be a simple person?
They were cooking beef offal, so even if they wanted to eat some, they didn't dare to disturb them!
Even though they all live in Guangming Garden, there is still a big difference between large flats and ordinary commercial housing.
This can be seen from the fact that the large flat has its own elevator.
Ordinary commercial housing residents don’t dare to do this, and owners of other large flats living in Guangming Garden also feel a little embarrassed.
After all, they are all well-known people, and it doesn't seem right to go up to them and ask for free food without even saying hello.
However, when they learned that Mo Qingyan was going to sell the beef offal at a stall, they immediately became excited.
It's not a good idea to go there and eat for free.
But if this is sold properly at a stall, can't they just line up to buy it?
After finding out more clearly that Mo Qingyan's beef offal was made from fragrant fruit beef, the desire to queue up to buy the beef offal became even stronger.
Of course, rich people don’t have to queue up themselves.
Just let the servants at home go.
Today is not Saturday or Sunday, and many people have to go to work.
Some people took leave at noon and rushed over.
Of course, there were also people who came from other cities by taxi or flight yesterday.
Some people who really cannot queue up have made good use of certain food delivery platforms and directly called riders to help them queue up.
It was not even noon, but a long queue had already formed in front of Mo Qingyan's stall in Guangyuan Square.
In the team, there are business people in suits and ties, as well as long-legged beauties in short flowing skirts.
There are also literary young people wearing short-sleeved shirts, shorts and big slippers.
Among these people, there are also some blue, yellow, and even green delivery riders.
When they saw the riders coming to line up, those who had been queuing in the hot weather suddenly remembered that they could still ask the riders to help them line up. They even help you queue up to buy the items and then deliver them to you.
There is no need to go through the trouble of queuing up yourself.
Of course, this costs a lot.
After all, the queue will take several hours.
If you call a rider, the fee will be at least two hundred.
If you have money, it's totally possible.
If you are an ordinary office worker, you might as well take a leave and do it yourself. Some companies do not deduct wages when you take leave.
After all, the money spent on waiting in line can be used to eat Mo Ge’s beef offal twice more.
Gao Moqi and Xu Yi are very smart.
They called riders to help queue up early in the morning. Still ranked first and second.
After all, one of them is a first-class state banquet gourmet, and the other is a great writer.
Everyone has money.
They planned to wait until the time was almost up before going over.
This way you don't have to wait there for hours.
The stall owners with the fastest queues are those around Guangyuan Square.
Some of them had queued up to buy Mo Qingyan’s three-fresh dumplings, while others bought the only cold noodles.
After eating it, I can't stop thinking about it day and night.
I'm just looking forward to Mo Qingyan coming out to set up a stall.
Therefore, they also hang out in Mo Qingyan’s live broadcast room every day.
After knowing that Mo Qingyan was going to set up a stall to sell beef offal today, they stopped doing business in the middle of the day and closed the shop. Come and line up.
Business can be done every day, but beef offal cannot be eaten every day.
Who knows if this beef offal will also be sold only for one day like the cold noodles.
Of course, what goes into your mouth and stomach first is yours.
This time, Mo Qingyan was not sure how many servings of beef offal could be made.
So, the people in the queue have been queuing for three or four times and are still waiting.
The beef offal starts to be boiled at ten o'clock in the morning and lasts until three o'clock in the afternoon. Finally, white radish is added and boiled for more than ten minutes. The heat is turned off until all the large pieces of radish have been thoroughly seasoned.
As soon as the fire was turned off, Song Beichen and the others couldn't wait and waited outside the kitchen with a basin each.
Please note that this is a real basin, not an exaggeration.
They have been obsessed with the fragrance since morning.
Everyone outside couldn't resist the aroma.
What's more, they can smell the fragrance from close range.
Now that they can finally eat, of course they can't wait to start eating.
Mo Qingyan looked at them, each holding a basin, and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Can you finish eating in such a big bowl?"
They nodded quickly and said:
"I can finish it, of course I can finish it."
"Brother Mo, you don't know. I barely ate a few bites of lunch, and now I'm so hungry that I can eat a cow."
"At noon, I didn't even have lunch. I was just waiting to eat beef offal."
"Me too. I feel like I'm almost starving. I'm just waiting for this beef offal to save my life."
Mo Qingyan was also wondering why they only ate two bites at lunch and then stopped.
Mo Qingyan thought that something went wrong with the dish cooked by Chef Zhang.
However, after eating it, he didn't feel anything wrong.
On the contrary, I feel that Chef Zhang’s cooking skills have improved recently.
Finally, when she saw that they were all listless and staring at the kitchen, Mo Qingyan roughly knew that they were planning to save their stomachs for the beef offal.
But what I didn’t expect was that they didn’t use bowls, but directly used basins to hold the beef offal.
Mo Qingyan said to them, "Okay, just pack as much as you can eat. Don't waste it, okay?"
"knew."
"clear."
"no problem."
"Don't worry, Brother Mo, we will definitely not waste it."
All the beef offal are cooked in large chunks so that they will not be loose.
Mo Qingyan asked Chef Zhang, Aunt Zhang and others to take out large pieces of beef tripe, beef lungs, beef intestines, etc. from the bucket and cut them into small pieces.
When the time comes, we will pack the food into portions in take-out boxes and sell them directly at Guangyuan Square.
This will also be much more convenient.
Of course, before packing, they have to feed Song Beichen and his hungry second generation first.
