Chapter 119 Showing Off Your Skills
Fat Liu knew that Lu Xiang’s cooking was delicious.
But she was frying the ingredients all the time, and Fat Liu felt the pungent and spicy taste, so he went out to watch the helpers and see how they were processing the pork.
If the pig offal is not handled properly, it will have a strong fishy smell.
Ordinary seasonings cannot mask this smell. The pig hair must be singed off and then smoked.
It has been processed. Lu Xiang had instructed before to cut it into small pieces again.
For a while, everyone was busy here.
Soon Lu Xiang began to prepare the seasoning water and prepared to cook the meat.
What is being cooked is the pig's head.
First, take out the pig brain flower, which can be used to make spicy pig brain flower separately. The finished pig brain flower is not fishy at all, and tastes like soft tofu. Leave it for the helpers to add to their dishes.
A large pig's head weighed at least 20 kilograms, and most people would be a little scared when they saw it. But Lu Xiang remained calm and threw the cleaned pig's head into the pot to process it.
She flipped the noodles over and over again, making sure every noodle was cooked through. After a while in front of the wok, she began to sweat. Soon, Lu Xiang was soaked.
Fortunately, this was done in the pig farm's kitchen, and the chef was there.
Seeing that it was the factory director's son's business, she also helped. With help from others, Lu Xiang gradually became faster.
After the cooked pig's head was removed and set aside to cool, someone was asked to put on clean rubber gloves and begin disassembling the meat.
Tear into small pieces, the bones are very smooth! Just right for the big wolf dogs in the factory to grind their teeth.
Soon the big pig's head was disassembled and the meat piled up like a mountain.
Two stoves started cooking at the same time, one pig head on the left and one on the right, and soon two large basins full of pig head meat were opened.
A big man couldn't even lift it. A rough estimate is that it is more than 100 pounds.
The things Lu Xiang brought were only seasonings for cooking, not enough for stir-frying. Fortunately, there were enough people here, so they asked a few people to go out and buy seasonings such as onions, ginger, garlic, peanuts, cucumbers, chili peppers and cilantro.
After buying them, I started to fry a pot of peanuts and mashed them into peanut crumbs.
Cut the cucumber into strips, shred the green onion, mince the garlic, etc. All the prepared seasonings are packed in the car.
There were more than twenty kinds of seasonings. The people in the kitchen saw Lu Xiang frying chili oil and boiling seasoning water. Many people didn't even understand what she was doing!
After finishing the salad, Lu Xiang started on another one. She personally checked it, especially the pig intestines, turning them over and rewashing them two or three times until she felt they were clean.
Cleaned according to the standards used for home cooking.
After cleaning, start stewing and then seasoning.
Soon a strange and charming fragrance wafted out.
Fat Liu was still able to command before.
But gradually I was attracted by the fragrance.
Then he ran to Lu Xiang, wanting to see how the progress was here.
Seeing Lu Xiang cooking braised meat next to him, Fat Liu's mouth was watering.
As the son of a pig farm manager, he often had access to delicious food and had been to state-owned restaurants several times. But he had never seen anyone make it taste this good. He wished he could have a taste.
Lu Xiang turned around and saw that Liu Pang's eyes were shining.
Lu Xiang couldn't help but smile and said, "Would you like to try it?"
Fatty Liu's eyes lit up when he heard this. Lu Xiang thought he looked a lot like the little yellow dog they used to have. If he had a tail, it would definitely be wagging it happily right now.
Lu Xiang took out a pair of very clean scissors and cut it a few times for him, then poured some soup on it and gave it to him to taste.
When Fat Liu took a bite, his eyes immediately opened wide. He had never eaten anything so delicious in his life.
It was fragrant and rich, and it was a great relief from the greasiness. One bite wasn't enough, and while holding the one in the bowl, he kept looking at the one in the pot. It felt like the whole pot of delicious food was calling out to him.
Lu Xiang directly gave him the spoon.
He can eat whatever piece he wants.
Fat Liu had never eaten such a delicious meal in his life. He quickly put the dishes he was interested in into his bowl, then held the bowl and started to eat.
He ate and praised it, his mouth full of oil: "How did you make this?" He was reluctant to sell it, so he kept such delicious food at home and froze it to eat slowly.
The dumplings made by Lu Xiang were very delicious, and the meat stewed by Lu Xiang was even more delicious.
This time, the braised meat was made with various pig offal, but I had no idea that this stuff would be even more delicious than meat after it was cooked.
Eat all you can eat meat. Fat Liu ate until he was completely full, then reluctantly stopped.
He wanted to try the cold meat, so he took a piece, but Lu Xiang hadn't started mixing it yet. He took a bite and it tasted bland.
Fat Liu wasn't discouraged. With the braised meat in front of him, the rest didn't matter. He said, "Today's sure to be a big seller!" If it sold for 200 yuan, each person would get 100 yuan, which was more than what the employees would earn in three months.
Not only was Fatty Liu excited, but even the hired helpers around him were amazed at the smell. Braised pork with some brown rice was incredible.
The helpers' work wasn't in vain; after a morning's work, they ate lunch in the cafeteria. Everyone got a small bowl of braised pork, and they could also help themselves to special dishes like spicy brain flower.
Everyone was eating with their mouths full of oil. They could get paid and eat delicious food. Where else could they find such a good job?
The helpers had started to eat, but Fat Liu and Lu Xiang planned to pack up their things and set off, and they had to sell all these things during the lunch break.
In the 1980s, people were poor and few owned cars, but the pig farm had one.
Liu Pang had passed his driving test early on, and he was the one driving at the pig farm. He also found a few skilled helpers, and together they went to the steel mill.
…
Liu Zhang is the son of a steel factory owner, and Xu Aidang is the son of the deputy director of the spring factory next door. They and Liu Pang are childhood friends.
At this moment, the two of them were waiting at the gate of the steel plant.
Seeing Fatty Liu's car approaching from a distance, Liu Zhang and Xu Aidang asked, "Do you think he can succeed this time?"
Xu Aidang said: "I don't know, but Fatty Liu is the one who loves to eat the most among us, so maybe there is a chance!" Although he said this, his tone was not optimistic.
Considering that we were childhood friends, I still came out to help.
They put all the tables and chairs from the cafeteria out in front of the gate, and the security guard didn't care.
Normally, you are not allowed to buy things for display here, but since the factory director’s son has spoken, who dares not obey?
Fatty Liu came down and saw that they had already set the table. They had even borrowed two scales and said with a smile, "Good brothers, you are in for a treat today!" Finally, he took out two large lunch boxes and said, "These are specially reserved for you."
He is a foodie, and these two lunch boxes are made of the best parts he has carefully selected. They are all top-quality and are guaranteed to taste delicious.
Liu Zhang and Xu Aidang didn't let his kindness go to waste. They smiled and thanked him: "We just happened to be free and have nothing to do, so we'll help you sell it."
