He didn't quite understand these fresh ingredients.
He thought the taste was truly exceptional.
Even the restaurant where he used to work couldn't replicate this taste.
I just took a nap, and the process of preparing the fresh ingredients is already halfway done.
Of course he couldn't understand it; this was a secret formula, how could Qiu Yan let him know?
Qin Susu smiled and thanked her, "Uncle, thank you for your help."
After the first batch was cooked, Ling Ba and Ling Qi each crushed a small amount according to the categories.
Then, Qiu Yan mixed them according to the proportions.
Before I knew it, it was already the hour of Hai (9-11 PM).
After Qiu Yan finished wrapping the last wonton, the chef had already boiled a pot of water.
Ling Ba lifted the pot lid and put the delicate little wontons into the pot one by one, simmering them over low heat.
Taking advantage of the empty space, Qiu Yan borrowed several porcelain bowls from the chef, lined them up, and put chopped green onions, chopped cilantro, dried seaweed, and of course, their newly made fresh ingredients on top.
Once the wontons floated to the surface, Qiu Yan took a spoonful of boiling water to dissolve the broth.
Scooping the translucent wontons into a bowl and adding a few drops of sesame oil from the kitchen, Qin Susu's mouth watered.
Unable to resist her craving, Qin Susu opened her mouth and ate one, exclaiming, "Delicious!"
She suddenly felt a delicious aroma filling her mouth. "Xiao Yan, your cooking skills are really good." She also thought of the barbecue she had made before, which tasted amazing after Qiu Yan marinated it.
Also, she had eaten wontons several times along the way, but none of them were as delicious as Qiu Yan's.
"I've decided, from now on, I'll be your loyal little follower, the kind who'll never leave you. Hehe, Xiaoyan, are you moved to tears?"
"My real intention isn't with the bar, Susu, I'm not your cook," Qiu Yan replied with a smile, then placed a bowl of wontons in front of the chef.
"Please try it."
Qiu Yan cooked extra for tomorrow's breakfast.
Making it yourself can satisfy your appetite, but it takes a bit of time.
The chef couldn't help but swallow hard; even though he was in the kitchen, he was hungry late at night.
After trying one, he praised it highly, saying, "Young lady, your ingredients seem simple, but I didn't expect it to taste so good."
"Uncle, to be honest, my family sells wontons," Qiu Yan said.
Qin Susu's body stiffened slightly. After being with Qiu Yan for so long, this was the first time she had ever known that Qiu Yan's family sold wontons.
All she knew was that Qiu Yan was knowledgeable in medicine and owned a pharmacy.
The chef understood. "No wonder your wontons are so delicious. Who taught you this fresh ingredient recipe?"
"This is my family's secret recipe. If you're interested, uncle, I'll give you some of these fresh ingredients."
You must give up something to gain something else.
"Thank you very much."
The chef was surprised by Qiu Yan's generosity. "Why don't you sell me this recipe? You can decide the price."
Qiu Yan thought, "That's a good idea."
She weighed the weight in her mind and held up five fingers.
"Fifty taels of silver."
Qin Susu choked and coughed a few times, thinking to herself, "Xiao Yan, you really are asking for a fortune."
It's just a simple mixture of ingredients, how could it be worth fifty taels of silver?
"Why is it so expensive?" The chef's jaw dropped slightly, then he shook his head abruptly.
"No, no, no, I can't afford that much money. Not to mention me, even our manager wouldn't buy it, it's too expensive."
Is fifty taels of silver expensive?
Qiu Yan glanced at Ling Qi and Ling Ba; clearly, these two were unaware of the prices of materials in the area.
"This recipe for fresh ingredients is a family secret passed down through generations. Uncle, how about this: if you like my recipe, tomorrow, please put in a good word for me with your shopkeeper. If you sell the recipe, I'll give you five taels of silver as a reward."
