The beef and mutton vermicelli soup is now reasonably priced, especially since customers are already prepared for the price when they come.
How terrifying is that!
These people were probably influenced by the steady stream of fans and diners who came to the morning market to find Boss Lin over the past two days.
Fans from other places may not be able to get here so quickly.
But fans from the local area and nearby cities, of course they have to come and check it out!
Mr. Lin's fans are not only in the south; many people in the north who have watched videos of Lin Zhou setting up a stall are very curious about his skills.
There was no chance before.
Now that Boss Lin has delivered himself to our doorstep, only a fool wouldn't take advantage.
"How much is the beef?"
Seeing Lin Zhou slicing beef, the vendor who felt the beef ribs were a bit expensive immediately changed his target.
"Ten yuan."
Beef is much cheaper than beef ribs.
After hearing the price of beef ribs, I suddenly felt that beef was actually quite a bargain.
"Then I'll have a bowl of beef."
The price of 21 yuan for a bowl of vermicelli soup is expensive for a local breakfast market, but it's much better than I expected.
As Lin Zhou sliced the meat, the aroma in the air grew even richer and more intense, causing everyone present to involuntarily growl in their stomachs.
The gurgling sound is the best indication of anticipation for food.
After Lin Zhou cut the meat, he started taking out the rice noodles and cooking them.
If you want beef vermicelli soup, cook the vermicelli in the beef broth; if you want mutton vermicelli soup, cook the vermicelli in the mutton broth.
Two large pots were constantly heated, bubbling and emitting a constant aroma.
The milky white vermicelli was placed in a strainer and then into the soup base, where it instantly disappeared without a trace.
Lin Zhou used long chopsticks to stir the noodles in the strainer, allowing them to fully absorb the umami flavor of the broth and gradually become transparent.
The glass noodles cook very quickly; once cooked, they are poured into a bowl.
The first bowl was, of course, for Da Zhuang.
Lin Zhou turned to look at Da Zhuang, who had been waiting for a long time.
Would you like some cilantro and garlic sprouts?
A fragrant beef soup, with cilantro and garlic sprouts as essential ingredients.
Dazhuang nodded, of course.
Even before you taste the vermicelli soup, the aroma of the finished product is already very enticing.
The two large bowls of soup base were still heating up, and the aroma kept spreading.
Soon, several business owners from the market came to wait for the vermicelli soup.
It smells really good; there's no need for advertising, plenty of people will come just by following the scent.
"I thought it was some beef soup shop, it smelled so good, but it turns out it's Boss Lin!"
Lin Zhou looked at these people and saw that they all seemed to recognize him.
It's a bit of a helpless situation.
This is the North!
When he came to set up his stall last week, not a single person recognized him.
Now everyone knows him.
Hello.
After Lin Zhou finished speaking, he added a beef rib directly to Da Zhuang's vermicelli soup.
"Brother, you should try some."
Lin Zhou handed the first bowl of vermicelli soup to Da Zhuang.
The business owners then remembered that Dazhuang also sold beef and mutton vermicelli soup.
However, seeing that Dazhuang didn't seem to care, and instead happily accepted the vermicelli soup, her focus shifted to the vermicelli soup.
"Dazhuang, hurry up and try it, which one tastes better, the one made by Boss Lin or the one you made?"
Ignoring the people in line, Da Zhuang held his glass noodle soup, blew on it a few times impatiently, and then took a small sip along the rim of the bowl.
In an instant, the deliciousness of the beef soup melted on the tip of the tongue.
The milky white broth, garnished with scallions, cilantro, and garlic chives, is clear and lacks a heavy buttery flavor, yet its freshness is enough to amaze the taste buds.
With its spicy kick from the pepper, it's truly unforgettable.
This kind of umami isn't the kind that's been enhanced with MSG.
It's the umami flavor that comes from stewing fresh beef.
A large pot of beef bones, beef, and other ingredients, with Lin Zhou adding spices and several Chinese herbs for seasoning, resulted in beef that was not only chewy but also tender and easy to chew, while also being very fresh and juicy.
The broth absorbs the umami flavor of the beef bones and beef, becoming even more flavorful and aromatic after being simmered for a long time.
With just one sip of the soup, Da Zhuang knew his beef vermicelli soup had lost.
We lost completely.
Even if you gave him ten years, he still couldn't make such a delicious beef soup.
"Boss Lin's cooking skills are truly amazing!"
Dazhuang gave a thumbs up, looking completely convinced of his defeat.
This immediately made the stall owners who had been assigned to the stalls anxious.
"Dazhuang, what does it taste like? You eat first, tell us quickly."
"Yeah, I'm so hungry for it, but you're eating it all by yourself."
"How does it compare to your glass noodle soup?"
Compared to the anxious people, Da Zhuang took a sip of beef soup and felt the scalding temperature. He then calmly used his chopsticks to pick up a piece of vermicelli and put it in his mouth.
The glass noodles were cooked to perfection, in less than two minutes, which allowed them to retain their smooth yet chewy texture.
It's not the kind of texture that breaks easily with a bite, but rather it's slightly chewy and has a delicious, savory flavor from the broth. It's so delicious it'll make your eyebrows fall off!
"My vermicelli soup can't compare to Boss Lin's. You'll see once you try it."
Da Zhuang looked at the group of people waiting for his feedback, took a moment to reply, and then hugged his bowl and ate the vermicelli soup in big mouthfuls.
It's going to snow in Baihe soon, and the outdoor temperature is very cold.
Having a steaming bowl of beef and vermicelli soup first thing in the morning is incredibly comforting.
For a moment, my mind went blank; all I wanted to do was slurp up the noodles and gnaw on the beef ribs.
