Chapter 84
The Si family came to an end, and something seemed to have happened to the Su family again. But for now, this is all with Xiao Yue...
The Si family came to an end, and something seemed to have happened to the Su family again.
But this has nothing to do with Xiao Yue for the time being. A new day brings a new atmosphere, and it's time to buy new products.
After setting off the lanterns last night, Xu Qingwu was so excited that she couldn’t sleep. She finally felt a little like her normal self.
Before going to bed, I was still mumbling about eating lots and lots of French fries tomorrow...
Xiao Yue was very happy, thinking that children really like to eat these, so why not upgrade the happiness?
We have French fries and Coke, so how can fried chicken legs be absent?
Anyway, you make it yourself, so you can eat it with confidence!
Although the original intention of the new product is a bit biased, who can guarantee that adults will not like this high-calorie fried food?
Xiao Yue had a great idea and even marinated the chicken legs in advance to make it easier to flavor them and save time.
There are many different recipes for fried chicken legs. Xiao Yue's this time's was neither simple nor difficult. The marinade only included salt, sugar, soy sauce, pepper, Sichuan pepper powder, onion, ginger, garlic, etc.
After mixing evenly, add milk to cover the chicken legs and put them in the refrigerator.
Xiao Yue had marinated them all more than an hour ago. When lunch was ready, he took them out of the refrigerator and picked out the onion, garlic and ginger slices one by one.
Pick out the seasonings cleanly and pour out half of the milk.
Fresh chicken legs are originally pink and white, and they seem to be one with the milk. Even if soy sauce is added, the color appears light.
The thing about fried chicken legs is the tenderness of the meat and the sweetness inside. When you take a bite, you can suck even the bones clean.
Of course, the skin is also very important. It is crispy and it also affects the appearance. Compared with the slices of crispy roasted pork belly, the fried chicken legs are all wrapped in crispy skin.
Therefore, in addition to flour and starch, Xiao Yue specially exchanged them for baking powder for frying powder. The ratio of the first two is one to one, while the baking powder is relatively less.
Finally, add a little salt to a fine layer of white fried flour and pour it into the chicken legs.
Xiao Yue poured half of it first, letting the fried powder fall into the milk and slowly stirring it together. Then he poured in the remaining half and stirred it all into a semi-fluid state.
When it covers the chicken thighs without rolling off too quickly, it's almost done.
Frying chicken legs requires a lot of oil, and Xiao Yue is never stingy in this regard. He simply pours the bright sesame oil into the black pot.
The temperature of the sesame oil gradually increased. Xiao Yue was already so skilled that he didn't even need to use chopsticks to test the temperature, and he put the chicken legs in.
The chicken legs were covered in oil, and soon oil flowered around them. Fried flour bloomed and took shape in the oil, turning into a light yellow color.
The aroma spreads, and a pot of fried chicken legs is tumbling in the high temperature, which makes people want to eat it just by looking at it.
The chicken legs do not need to be re-fried, so Xiao Yue can finish them in one pot. She just needs to take out the chicken legs that have turned golden brown that were put in earlier.
Xiao Yue held the colander in one hand, scooped out the chicken legs and placed them on the colander, then used the other hand to scoop up the hot oil with a spoon and poured it directly on the chicken legs in the colander.
The oil gurgled and fell back into the pan from top to bottom. The oil that had been used to fry the chicken legs had a fragrant aroma.
Xiao Yue drained the first spoonful of chicken thighs with oil and placed them in a separate large insulation tank lined with oil-absorbing paper. Even the sound of it falling was so pleasant, you can imagine how crispy it was.
This was repeated several times, and with Xiao Yue's hands becoming sore, the entire insulation tank was finally filled with fried chicken legs.
She exhaled and placed what was left in the pot in another thermal bath as a backup.
After the chicken legs are fried, the sauce is also essential.
The first thing Xiao Yue thought of was something milky, sweet and smooth - cheese.
Of course it is not solid, but a cheese waterfall that can be drawn into strings after heating and has a rich taste.
The method is very simple. Xiao Yue exchanged a small round pot that can self-heat at low temperature in advance. You only need to add cheese strips, cheese cubes, and cheese powder into it, and finally add a little fresh milk.
In just a moment, the whole kitchen was filled with the aroma of milk. The melted cheese was light yellow in color and had a rich flavor. I couldn’t help but imagine how delicious it would be when dipped in chicken legs.
Xiao Yue resisted the urge to try the food and prepared something else from the cold drinks area.
Sweet and sour, fresh and soft - mango sago.
How can we miss such a delicious cup in the hot summer?
Xiao Yue plans to continue as usual and prepare various ingredients for customers to cook by themselves.
After all, it is very simple to match, and she also drew a diagram of the dosage steps on the whiteboard in advance, so she can just put them together when the time comes.
First is tapioca pearls. Because we have iced milk tea, there is always stock, so we keep it in a wooden barrel while it is still warm.
Xiao Yue prepared several large glass bowls to hold the ingredients, and the one containing the tapioca pearls had to be added with ice cubes and water to prevent them from sticking together.
Next is mango puree and mango cubes. This part is even simpler. You can just use the existing frozen mangoes to puree them.
Xiao Yue froze some extra yesterday, so now she just added a little milk and blended it. While this process was going on, she also cut some mango cubes.
The mango pit produced by the system can be said to be negligible. Just cut it open with one knife, make a cross on the flesh, and then cut it along the way to get complete mango cubes.
Xiao Yue put the two mangoes separately into the glass bowl and filled it up. One was light and clear in color, and the other was beautiful and mellow.
In addition to mango, there is another fruit in mango sago, the sweet and sour pink grapefruit.
Peeling grapefruits is a big project, and because Xiao Yue was busy setting up lanterns last night, she didn't prepare in advance.
Looking at the large basket of grapefruits in front of her, she fell into deep thought - the system is so advanced, can't there be an automatic fruit peeling machine?
【……】
Xiao Yue felt the system's answer in silence, sighed, and resigned himself to starting to peel the grapefruit.
Grapefruits are slightly larger in size, and their skin is a very fairy-like orange-pink color. When you cut it open, the unique citrus scent spreads, and you feel refreshed as soon as you smell it.
Xiao Yue tore the grapefruit open and peeled the flesh off the skin bit by bit.
But the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
Isn't this too easy to peel?
The white threads seem to fall off automatically and will not stick to the flesh at all, which greatly saves picking time.
Xiao Yue watched helplessly as the plump, juicy, teeth-tingling grapefruit flesh gradually filled up the glass bowl.
It’s worthy of being a system product!
System: [Hmph. 】
That's not what you thought just now!
Xiao Yue coughed lightly, turned around, went to the refrigerator, took out a bucket of white liquid, and poured it into the last bowl of ingredients.
This is the last thing in mango sago, and it is also the most indispensable one - coconut milk.
Compared with mellow milk, it has a more aromatic flavor.
After Xiao Yue filled it up, he felt even happier when he looked at the fully prepared ingredients on the table in front of him.
Who says mango sago and fried chicken legs are not a perfect match?
Eat one without saying a word!
…
This was the third day after the Yueting self-service incident. Customers thought that Xiao Yue’s mood would be affected to some extent, and the new products would be delayed for a few days.
Who knew there would be two today!
One is the fried chicken legs in the flavor area. You can tell what it is just by listening to the name, and it seems a bit monotonous.
However, when customers saw a pot of light yellow thick sauce, they were pleasantly surprised, and their eyes lit up when they read the description on the whiteboard.
——A new way of eating!
It is indeed a new way of eating. When the fragrant cheese is stretched on the fried chicken legs, many people blush with anxiety, but the taste is simply irresistible.
There were already some people happily eating fried chicken legs in the lobby on the first floor, but the people queuing in the cold drink area were different. They were confused by the name of "Yangzhi Ganlu".
Because it sounded like I had no idea what it was, and when I looked over I only saw a row of ingredients, and I had no idea what the finished product would look like.
Fortunately, there is a whiteboard with the steps drawn on it. Just add the ingredients one by one, and the final product will be a cup of yellow and white cold drink with pink particles floating on it. It looks very beautiful.
Everyone had already gotten used to Yueting’s self-service model, and it wasn’t long before the first group of customers came out with mango and sago.
When the cool liquid enters your mouth, the special taste directly hits your taste buds, sweet and sour, soft and slightly astringent, very layered!
Exclamations rang out in the store, coupled with the crisp sound of biting into the fried chicken legs, this summer is particularly refreshing.
People come and go, and the two new products are gradually sold out.
Xiao Yue came over and took a look. He first ordered some fried chicken legs and cheese, then went back to the backyard to push over some mango sago as a side dish.
The mango sago was sold out quickly and the mango puree was almost gone, so there were people waiting in front of the table.
When Xiao Yue walked over, he saw a woman in a white dress standing there, with fair skin and charming eyes.
"Sorry for the wait."
Xiao Yue started talking, and then replenished the things one by one. It was when he lowered his head that he discovered that the woman was pregnant.
However, the woman did not seem to have any difficulty in moving, and there was an elderly but nimble wet nurse looking after her.
"Yangzhi Ganlu..." The woman looked away from the whiteboard and exclaimed: "What a nice name. Can these things be put in there casually?"
Xiao Yue could tell that this was the woman's first time and said with a smile, "Of course, you can put as many ingredients as you want, but try to use as little ice as possible."
She was referring to women's bodies. It's not that you can't eat cold food during pregnancy, but you should eat less.
The woman paused, her eyebrows raised and a smile appeared on her face: "Okay, I'll try it now."
For most people, a store where you can "cook" your own food is very novel.
The woman was obviously very interested and took the cup from the wet nurse and started drinking.
The cup is a glass cup, which is larger than the ordinary one and can hold more.
The woman started with the first ingredient, which was tapioca pearls.
It was soaked in ice water, and at first glance you almost thought it was empty. You had to use a small and delicate colander to scoop it up, only then did you realize that the sago was crystal clear and round.
The second one was diced mango. The woman held the sleeve of her right hand with her left hand and scooped a few spoonfuls gracefully.
The third one was pink and juicy grapefruit, some in large chunks and some in small pieces. The woman added a little bit.
Then came the fragrant white coconut milk and light yellow mango puree... Once they were put in, the glass cup was instantly filled up.
But the woman didn't fill the cup to the brim. She stopped when it was about half a finger deep, and then added a little diced mango, tapioca pearls, and grapefruit, and finally a very small amount of ice cubes...
A cup of standard and brightly colored mango sago is now ready.
The woman looked very happy and said to the nurse with a sense of accomplishment: "It's quite interesting, you should try it too!"
The wet nurse responded "OK" and was very doting on the woman.
