"Yeah, I'm really happy to meet them!"
With so many people helping out, it saved us a lot of trouble.
After a while, five or six dishes were ready.
Zhang Xiao'e suggested eating in the yard.
They said that when they were in the village, they would eat together in the yard when it was hot in the summer.
When everyone heard it, they all agreed!
The daytime heat has dissipated, and gusts of sea breeze are blowing across the island, making it particularly cool.
Li Wenying was very proactive. She took the initiative to move the table outside with the two little ones and helped to make tea.
"Leave the rest to me. There are two new dishes. You have already prepared the ingredients for me, so you can just cook them."
Seeing that so many people were indeed not needed, and that everyone was too embarrassed to go out first, Zhang Xiao'e took off her apron and went to the backyard with Li Wenying and Zhang Xiuqin.
Li Wenying was so eager to learn new dishes that she didn't want to leave and insisted on watching from the side.
Lin Jiaojiao didn't stop her either.
"What are you going to make? It feels different from the vegetables you made before!"
"I'm going to make a cold dish: cucumber with shrimp and lemon chicken feet."
“…”
"Cucumber with shrimp is quite simple. Boil the shrimp and eggs in water. Then, divide the eggs into four equal parts and put them in a bowl with the cooled shrimp. Cut the washed cucumber into pieces and put them in the bowl as well. You can add some corn kernels and fried peanuts according to your taste. Then comes the most crucial step, which is also the soul of the dish."
"What?"
"Of course it's the sauce! Take another bowl, add the chopped garlic first, add some chili peppers and chili powder according to your taste, you can also add some toasted sesame seeds, and heat the oil on the fire."
Lin Jiaojiao saw that the oil temperature was about right, so she poured them onto the sauce in the bowl.
Along with the sizzling sound, a fragrance wafts over to your face.
It makes people drool.
“It smells so good!”
"That's not enough. Add some salt, dark sauce, and most importantly, more vinegar. Stir in the vegetables Lin has chopped, and wait for the broth to absorb the flavor. Then the dish is ready!"
Lin Jiaojiao spoke and did it at the same time, her movements were very skillful.
By the time he finished speaking, the dish had already been successfully served.
"Take it out!"
Li Wenying looked at the food in her hand, her mouth watering with the aroma: "Wait for me, I'll bring the food back and you can continue!"
Lemon chicken feet are a bit complicated to make.
Zhang Xiao'e had just helped to process the chicken feet, trimming the nails, cutting a cut in the middle of each chicken foot, and then adding onions, ginger, garlic, and cooking wine to the pot to remove the fishy smell and cook until done.
Prepare more chopped green onion, ginger, garlic and coriander.
Also, cut all the red and white peppers into small pieces, and add more of them.
Next is the most important thing, lemon.
Slice all the washed lemons.
Then put all the ingredients in the prepared bowl and pour the pre-prepared sauce into it.
Finally, add enough water to cover the ingredients.
Then put the cooked chicken feet in and keep kneading them to make them taste better.
"The last dish, lemon chicken feet, is finally ready to be served!"
Li Wenying put the chicken feet on the table, her face full of excitement and impatience.
"Another new dish! So lemons can be used in cooking?"
Zhang Xiao'e looked surprised.
Although she had seen Lin Jiaojiao's cooking skills before and had eaten several seafood dishes and sweet and sour spare ribs.
But on the table today, besides these things, there are other things that I have never seen before!
Ji Lan was also drooling over the delicious smell.
She had heard from her mother early in the morning about the strange dishes made by Lin Jiaojiao, and had been wanting to try them for a long time.
After hearing everyone say that just now, I am even more looking forward to it.
Zhang Xiao'e only put the chicken feet she picked up into her mouth after seeing everyone pick up their chopsticks.
Refreshing, sweet and sour, not greasy at all.
The sour taste of lemon makes people shiver!
Coupled with the occasional cool breeze, the heat of the whole day is instantly dissipated, which is really enjoyable!
"Sister-in-law, I didn't know you could cook chicken feet like this? Not greasy at all, sour and sweet, so delicious!"
"If it's delicious, eat more and try something else!"
Ji Lan nodded, her eyes fixed on the dishes on the table.
“Cough cough cough!”
"Eat slowly, no one is going to snatch the food from you. Look at you, kid!" Zhang Xiao'e looked at Ji Lan who was being scolded and handed her a glass of water with a helpless smile.
Ji Lan also looked embarrassed. After she recovered, she chuckled, "I just can't stop eating. Sister-in-law, now I understand why you can work part-time at the Island Hotel."
"Of course not! Ever since your sister-in-law started working part-time at our restaurant, she's been serving new dishes every month, and so many people are waiting to try them! The number of customers has doubled compared to before!"
When Ji Lan heard Zhang Fang's praise, he admired Lin Jiaojiao even more.
Now, let's be honest.
She had a little feeling that her brother was not worthy of her sister-in-law.
However, as soon as this idea came to mind, it was immediately extinguished!
My brother is still very good!
He is a tough warrior and handsome.
It should be said that they are becoming more and more compatible!
"Brother, you should eat more too!"
Zhang Xiuqin also laughed and joked, "You don't know, ever since my husband ate Jiaojiao's cooking, he's been like a demon. He's been trying to come over every day to eat for free. Later, when Jiaojiao started to get busy, he kept waiting at home, hoping that one day Jiaojiao would cook!"
"Then why don't you let him come over today? It'll be fun for everyone!"
"He's on a business trip. He'll definitely regret it when he comes back."
The conversation between Zhang Xiuqin and Zhang Xiaoe made everyone laugh.
Li Wenying was also amused by what she heard and joked, "If you ask me, Jiaojiao's ideas are different from others. Tell me, whether it's working in the art troupe, the army kitchen, our Women's Federation, or even just joining a food factory and focusing on being a designer, which one wouldn't earn more than a teacher?"
"Being a teacher is a good profession, but it's too stressful and the salary isn't high. I really don't know what you're thinking!"
"Look at what you're saying. What's wrong with being a teacher? Teaching and educating people! Besides, someone as smart and capable as Jiaojiao can do whatever they want. If she wants to be a teacher now, then she can do something else if she doesn't want to be one anymore!"
"Sister Fang is right."
Everyone burst into laughter.
He didn't notice Zhang Yaxin in the outer courtyard.
Zhang Yaxin went to the supply and marketing cooperative and passed by Zhang Xiuqin's house. She originally wanted to bring her some things.
As soon as I reached the door, I heard laughter coming from the yard next door.
My face is too ugly to hold back.
It turns out that Lin Jiaojiao has so many choices?
Since there is such a good job, why don't you take it? Why do you have to compete with her?
Could it be that he knew about her and Ji Huaian?
