Besides raw onions, delicious caramelized onions and red wine onions also need to be sautéed in advance.
The preparation work before setting up a hamburger stall is more like preparing all the ingredients, and then setting up the stall to make hamburgers is to combine the ingredients according to the customers' tastes.
The process of cooking, from preparing ingredients to transforming them into the form and flavor he desires, is a very therapeutic experience for Lin Zhou now.
In the past, I would go to work every day, and for meals I would either order takeout or just cook some noodles or fried rice, and that was enough.
He never imagined he would come to enjoy cooking.
Watching raw ingredients transform into delicious dishes that everyone praises in his hands is truly fulfilling.
This sense of accomplishment is no different from that of a writer who creates a universally praised work or a painter who creates a stunning painting.
It also has special significance.
......
The aroma of bread filled the kitchen, and as the baking time was completed, it made a "ding" sound, announcing its presence.
Lin Zhou put down his work, walked over and opened the oven. He saw round hamburger buns appear before him, emitting a steaming aroma of wheat.
The baked bread has a caramel-colored, smooth, and glossy surface, which tells you it's perfectly baked.
Lin Zhou pressed down with his hand, and the bread dough sank softly and then quickly rose up, showing great elasticity.
After cutting it open, the bread dough was quite firm, and while it was still hot, he ate one straight away.
It smells wonderfully of bread; it's really delicious.
You can imagine how delicious it would be to make a hamburger!
"Mr. Lin, if there's nothing else, we'll head home now."
At six o'clock, Butler Sun knocked on the kitchen door and said in a low voice.
"Want a hamburger before you go?"
Lin Zhou prepared a variety of ingredients that could be used to make many different flavors of hamburgers. Making hamburgers was like an experiment, to find the most popular type.
He enjoyed it.
The bread dough is now baked; all that's left is to assemble it.
Judging by the quantity, he can eat at most one by himself.
"Sir, your cooking skills are so good, and you've already said it, how could we bear to leave?"
Upon hearing this, Sun Deye couldn't help but burst into laughter, his ever-present gentle smile faltering for a moment.
Aunt Fang and Aunt Xu, who were standing nearby, nodded in agreement.
Working at Mr. Lin's company is great in every way: nine to five, no overtime, no boss watching over them, and various benefits.
The key is that Lin Zhou is the only boss, so there are fewer problems.
The boss is also passionate about cooking and often prepares meals for them; his culinary skills are truly exceptional.
Butler Sun and the others had no intention of leaving once they arrived.
She works diligently every day, keeping the villa spotless. She's so thoughtful that she'd practically hand over anything Lin Zhou needs without him even having to ask.
"That's perfect. I'll make a few more hamburgers, and we'll see which one tastes the best."
With the readily available ingredients, Lin Zhou quickly assembled four or five different flavored hamburgers.
First comes the classic American burger, then double cheeseburgers, avocado burgers, Big Macs, black truffle burgers, and other optional ingredients like bacon and pineapple slices, which can be freely combined.
The housekeeper and the aunties are all getting on in years. They usually eat regular meals, so they don't really know much about foods like hamburgers that young people like.
Looking at all the different kinds of hamburgers, I felt a bit lost and didn't know where to start.
“I was worried that if you ate the whole thing, you would only taste one flavor. So I cut the burger into pieces, and you can eat it with gloves.”
Following Lin Zhou's demonstration, everyone put on gloves and picked up the nearest hamburger to eat.
Lin Zhou's first choice is the ultra-thin double beef and cheese burger with bacon.
A typical squeeze burger, the patties are all pressed flat, so thin they're almost like paper when viewed from the side.
You can eat all the ingredients in one bite without much effort. The thickness makes it very easy to eat.
The first bite is full of caramelized flavor, which shows that the beef is of very high quality.
The sourness of the pickled cucumbers blends with the flavor of the sauce, and you can taste the combined flavors of ketchup, yellow mustard, and other sauces, creating a harmonious overall taste.
With another chew, you can taste the crispy bacon slices; the smoky aroma is a perfect match for the beef and cheese flavor!
Lin Zhou didn't add tomatoes or leafy greens because he liked the satisfaction of pure meat. One bite was all about the caramelized aroma of meat, which was incredibly satisfying.
"It's delicious!"
Lin Zhou hadn't eaten fast food in a long time, so this sudden treat was very enjoyable.
"It's unbeatable when paired with an ice-cold cola."
As soon as Lin Zhou finished speaking, Butler Sun had already walked to the refrigerator and grabbed an iced cola.
She even put down the hamburger and portioned it out for him in a glass, adding ice and lemon slices, making it exactly the taste Lin Zhou liked.
"Butler Sun, having you is my blessing!"
Who understands the feeling of drinking an ice-cold Coke right after saying those words!
Hearing Lin Zhou's praise, Aunt Xu and Aunt Fang, who were a step behind, immediately changed their gazes towards Butler Sun.
......
Which burger tastes the best?
After finishing the various burgers on the table, Lin Zhou still preferred the double cheese burger with no vegetables and bacon.
If he can't make a choice, then it's up to Steward Sun and the others.
They ate a quarter of each hamburger and were still stuffed.
It's all real beef, and the thick beef patty is especially generous and filling, plus the iced cola we drank.
Butler Sun shook his head, indicating that he couldn't choose either.
"They all tasted great, each with its own unique characteristics. For example, the black truffle burger—you handled the special, indescribable aroma of black truffle so perfectly, it's impossible to find fault with it!"
"The avocado sauce also has a refreshing flavor, a completely different seasoning that gives each burger a fresh taste."
After the housekeeper finished speaking, Lin Zhou looked at the aunties.
Aunt Fang: "I like the pineapple one. When you bite into it, the pineapple juice is sweet and sour. I never thought that roasted pineapple could be eaten like this. It's moist and the meat patty isn't so dry anymore. It's delicious."
"Mr. Lin, your cooking skills are so good, how could anyone choose these dishes? You're making things difficult for us!"
Aunt Xu said she really couldn't choose, they were all so delicious.
Working in a villa and getting such delicious free meals? My goodness! I never dreamed that such delicious food existed in the world.
She felt that even choosing one was a desecration of the burgers; they were all incredibly delicious!
Seeing their troubled expressions, Lin Zhou couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, okay, then write them all down on the menu."
Lin Zhou took out the small blackboard from the tricycle and wrote down all the types of hamburgers, as well as any additional ingredients that could be added.
