"Okay, then I'll bring a few more people to play with us. Director Liu, do you need me to prepare anything?"
"No, just go there. By the way, can you make roasted whole lamb?"
"Yes, but I can't boast whether it's good or not."
"It's OK if you can make it. With your cooking skills, Master Du, the food you make will never be bad. That's it. At 8:30 on Saturday morning, you wait in advance at the entrance of Chunfeng Lane. See you there."
The two ended the call, Du Shaojie put down the phone, and specially prepared some more spice bags.
The spice bags are now placed in the cafeteria of the medical school. If any [Du's Pepper Chicken] store needs it, just contact Su Dapeng. He usually doesn't make too much at a time, but this is not a two-day trip, so he prepared some more.
After finishing his work, he went to the snack bar, and then went to the [Da Pan Ji] specialty store.
The snack bar's business has now entered a stable period. Even if there are deviations in the daily turnover, the difference is very small. The [Big Plate Chicken] specialty store is in its rising period, and everyone has given it a label, calling it "Blood Station Big Plate Chicken".
Because the store is located near the central blood station, this label is simple and easy to remember. On the contrary, not many people can remember the sign of the [Du's Big Plate Chicken] specialty store.
Du Shaojie arrived at the store a while before lunch, but the place was already full.
"Manager Du"
"Manager Du"
Including the waiters and cashiers, everyone was busy.
Everyone only greeted him when they saw him, and there was no time to say more.
Du Shaojie watched Luo Gang and Huang Feiyu's frying process in the back kitchen for a while, gave a few pointers, and then walked out. These two people no longer need him to say anything. As far as this [Big Plate Chicken] is concerned, the skill level has reached the top.
Later, Dong Jun hurried over.
Du Shaojie chatted with the other party for a few words, saying that he would go out for two days on the weekend, and if there was anything, he would talk to him after he came back.
When he returned home, Xiaomei had already prepared dinner.
His elder sister learns everything quickly. Now she can cook well. If she practices more, she will definitely be a good hand in the kitchen.
"Mom, you take a two-day break this weekend. I will take you to Nanshan to play."
During the meal, Du Shaojie talked about the weekend arrangements.
Xiaomei and Xiaoya were naturally very happy, but Wang Yuxiu refused to go.
"You young people go and have fun. There are many things to do in the store. If I don't keep an eye on them, I will always be worried."
Anyway, no matter how Du Shaojie persuaded her, Wang Yuxiu just refused to go, which made him lose his temper.
If she didn't want to go, then don't go. Du Shaojie then notified Su Dapeng, Qi Yan and Liang Meiqin.
Qi Yan and Liang Meiqin would soon leave the local area for a long journey. One was going to Hong Kong for medical treatment, and the other was about to start school. It was a good opportunity for them to get together.
As for Su Dapeng, he was similar to Wang Yuxiu. He couldn't let go of his business and refused to go.
When the day came, Du Shaojie, Xiaomei, Xiaoya, Qi Yan and Liang Meiqin stood at the entrance of Chunfeng Lane early to wait for the bus. After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, a minibus pulled over, and then they saw Liu Ying opening the window and waving at them.
"Let's go, get in the car."
Qi Yan pushed Liang Meiqin behind Du Shaojie. The driver noticed this and immediately got off the car to help put the wheelchair away.
There were only Liu Ying's family of three in the car. Qi Yan helped Liang Meiqin find a seat to sit down. Xiaomei and Xiaoya sat as far back as possible. It was obvious that they were not used to this kind of occasion.
"Master Du, this is my husband Fan Donglin, he teaches at the Normal College. This is my daughter Qingqing, who is still in high school. Old Fan, this is the Master Du I often mentioned to you."
Du Shaojie got in the car and sat in the back seat with Liu Ying. Liu Ying turned around and introduced them.
"Hello, Professor Fan. Hello, Qingqing. Director Liu, they are my two sisters and two friends."
Du Shaojie smiled and greeted Liu Ying's family, and Fan Donglin and Fan Qingqing also responded.
At the same time, he also briefly introduced the identities of Qi Yan and others.
Liu Ying smiled at everyone, and Du Shaojie did not make any further introductions.
Along the way, Du Shaojie and Liu Ying chatted casually, and her family was silent.
Qi Yan whispered to Liang Meiqin about the scenery outside the car window. Xiaomei and Xiaoya whispered something, but they kept smiling.
The city is nearly 50 kilometers away from the sanatorium. Although the road behind is not easy to walk, it took more than an hour to get there.
Entering the "Dry Treatment Courtyard", the first thing that comes into view is a three-story building. However, this is an ordinary sanatorium ward. The car continued to go in and finally stopped in front of a three-story building.
There are six such buildings in this area. According to Du Shaojie's understanding, it is probably similar to a holiday villa.
After getting off the car, Du Shaojie followed Liu Ying directly to the third floor, while Liu Ying's family and Qi Yan and others rested in the lobby on the first floor, and there was a special person to greet them.
"Master Du, I brought my family out this time just to rest for two days and let them taste the dishes cooked by you, the chef. Ingredients and seasonings are all available. You can ask the waiter for details. Thank you for your hard work!"
Feng Qingsong has always been polite to Du Shaojie. Perhaps it was because there was no interest involved, or perhaps it was because of his superb cooking skills, and of course it might also be because of Cai Jing's face.
"What's so hard about this? Just tell me what you want to eat these two days. As long as there are ingredients, we can cook it and eat it."
Du Shaojie was never nervous when facing Feng Qingsong. Occasionally, they could even make a little joke with each other.
When he said this, Feng Qingsong and Liu Ying were both happy.
"It's still early now. You can take your family and friends to walk around the sanatorium. Just go to the cafeteria to eat something at noon, and we'll have roasted whole lamb in the evening."
The three chatted for a while, and Liu Ying went downstairs with him.
"Master Du, you and your friends live on the first floor, my family lives on the second floor, and the leader's family lives on the third floor. Is that okay?"
"Of course, no problem, thank you Director Liu."
After arranging the rooms, Qi Yan and others went in to rest.
There are many rooms in this small building, and there are four bedrooms on the first floor alone. From the bedroom, you can
go directly to the backyard. The backyard is not only large in area, but also has a view of the beautiful scenery of the mountain. The sanatorium is built at the foot of the mountain. Walk out of the backyard and go through the back door of the sanatorium to reach the lush Nanshan Mountain.
It was difficult to climb the mountain with Miqin around, so Du Shaojie took them for a walk along the mountainside. The temperature in the mountains is relatively low, so in midsummer, this area is a summer resort.
It was almost noon.
Du Shaojie, Qi Yan and others turned back, and several girls picked a lot of wild flowers.
He went to the kitchen to take a look. The facilities in the kitchen were very good. He asked the waiter of this building, and the waiter said that if there was anything needed here, someone would deliver it immediately.
The premise is that there is it in the warehouse, otherwise there is no way.
Afterwards, everyone went to the canteen of the sanatorium for lunch. Feng Qingsong sat with his family, Liu Ying and her family sat at another table, and Du Shaojie sat with Qi Yan and others.
He took a look and found that Feng Qingsong had more family members. In addition to the couple, there was an old man. It was not known whether it was his mother or mother-in-law. There were also two young people, a boy and a girl. The age difference between the two seemed to be at most three or four years. They should be brothers and sisters.
After dinner, they went back to their rooms to rest.
Du Shaojie rested for more than half an hour, and someone brought a freshly slaughtered sheep. The canteen of the sanatorium also sent two young men to help Du Shaojie.
Du Shaojie had never made this dish before, but Liu Ying had greeted him in advance, so it was easy.
In the past two days, he went into the simulation scene for simulation training whenever he had time. It took 300 hours before and after, and he had fully mastered the production process and key points of the dish [Roast Whole Lamb].
After the mutton was cleaned, it was marinated.
This process takes two or three hours, and then it is roasted over charcoal.
In later generations, there are special roast whole lamb stoves or large ovens. With the help of tools, the difficulty of making this dish is much lower. Roasting with open flames is more challenging for the chef to control the heat. If you are not careful, the skin of the mutton will easily burn.
The whole sheep is fixed on the rack, and it needs to be turned over constantly during the roasting process, and it is also necessary to brush a layer of clear oil on the surface of the mutton from time to time.
When the mutton is medium-rare, he needs to cut the skin with a knife and apply his own sauce to make it easier to taste.
Finally, sprinkle with chili powder, cumin powder and other seasonings, and then bake for a few minutes before serving.
The whole production process takes about 5 or 6 hours, which is not easy.
Feng Qingsong and his family came to the backyard. The service staff set up tables and chairs in the backyard. There were three tables in total. Everyone sat separately in family units.
"Master Du, you go to eat, and we will take care of the rest."
The main work was done, and the division of the roasted whole lamb was naturally done by the people sent by the canteen of the sanatorium.
Plates of freshly baked whole roasted lamb were served on the table, and some cold dishes were also sent from the canteen. The waiter poured a bowl of milk tea for everyone.
The milk tea was naturally sent from the canteen.
The staple food in the evening was naan and flower rolls. To be honest, they were full just by eating meat.
"What a great craft! The roasted whole lamb made by Master Du is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It is fully flavored and has an endless aftertaste!"
Feng Qingsong couldn't help but applaud after taking a bite.
He knew that he was right to call Du Shaojie. With the level of the chefs in the sanatorium, the roasted whole lamb made by them would be good enough to be swallowed with pinched nose. How could it be so delicious?
Feng Qingsong's wife also smiled and praised a few words. As for his two children, they were so impressed by the food that they didn't have time to talk.
"Xiaoying, it seems that you are not bragging. Master Du's craftsmanship is completely beyond my imagination. And he is so young. I don't know where you found him."
Liu Ying's husband Fan Donglin has always disliked dealing with officials. When he met Feng Qingsong, he just smiled and nodded without saying a word.
It is also because the good relationship between the two families has been maintained for many years, otherwise he would not be able to come to play this time.
Unexpectedly, Fan Donglin's evaluation of Du Shaojie is quite high. (End of this chapter)
