Chapter 37 Mixed Fish and Tofu
Then, Qin Xiaomei and Wang Liwen began to process the mixed fish, Li Guixiang washed the vegetables, and Du Shaojie cut the vegetables and prepared various small ingredients by himself.
At noon, he planned to make [mixed fish and tofu] and cold-mixed Chinese cabbage, and the staple food was corn steamed cake. The steamed cake has been steamed,
and it will be ready when the dish is ready. [Mixed fish and tofu] is a home-cooked dish. Although he has never made it, he has already thought about how to cook it in his mind.
Learning cooking skills requires flexibly and adapting to local conditions. It is not impossible to copy the recipe, but you have to have the conditions.
Today, there happened to be tofu and a large bucket of mixed fish, which can be matched.
After all the preparations are ready, Du Shaojie first heated the pan, then put some clear oil in the pan, and began to fry the mixed fish.
Small mixed fish are fried whole, and larger fish are cut into pieces and fried, making sure to keep the consistency of the ingredients.
After the mixed fish are fried, take them out, leave the bottom oil in the pan and start frying the small ingredients. The small ingredients include onion, ginger, garlic, chili, and a little yellow bean paste. After frying, pour soy sauce and pour the fish into the pot.
Add hot water to cover the vegetables and boil over high heat.
Then add the cut tofu cubes and start seasoning.
Add salt, a little pepper, and a little white sugar to the seasoning. Stew for about ten minutes and you can serve.
At this time, the whole cafeteria is filled with the smell of fish, which makes people swallow their saliva.
Next, blanch the cabbage, add garlic paste, soy sauce, vinegar, a little white sugar and other seasonings, and finally pour a little cooked oil.
Finally, he also made a pot of oil-splashed chili. If anyone likes spicy food, they can scoop a spoonful by themselves.
At mealtime, Chen Jizhou and others lined up and walked into the cafeteria.
"It smells so good! I'm even hungrier when I smell it."
Zhai Yucheng raised his nose and sniffed, and immediately had an appetite.
At noon, Du Shaojie and Qin Xiaomei were in front to get food. The steamed cake had just come out of the pot, and Li Guixiang was carrying it.
Chen Jizhou was also looking forward to it, but there were still many people in front of him, so he could only move forward step by step with patience.
Finally, it was his turn. He quickly extended the rice bowl and said, "Xiao Du, give me two more pieces of tofu."
Du Shaojie smiled and nodded, scooped a large spoonful of mixed fish tofu directly into the rice bowl, and then put a portion of cold cabbage on the lid of the rice bowl.
Chen Jizhou put the dishes on the table first, and then went to get two steamed cakes.
Soon, Zhai Yucheng, Jiang Yong, Jiang Xianfa and others gathered around and sat with him.
"Don't look at them as mixed fish. Xiao Du can make them fragrant. And this tofu absorbs the delicious taste of fish meat, and it tastes really good."
This is Zhai Yucheng's old problem. He always feels that something is missing if he doesn't comment on it.
The other few people responded with "hmmmm" while eating.
The other people in the labor study group were similar. No one could resist the temptation of delicious food.
At this moment, it seemed as if the hard work of half a day was not so unbearable, and a feeling of joy was quietly transmitted among the crowd.
Of course, there were also people who were unhappy, such as Lin Zuo.
After Lin Zuo entered the cafeteria,
he did not immediately line up for food, but stood on the side of the line, his eyes constantly patrolling. He did not expect that the farm cafeteria could come up with such a trick. These people came here to learn labor, not to enjoy themselves. Therefore, he was dissatisfied, very dissatisfied.
But this cannot be said publicly. The monthly food allowance of the learning labor group is fixed, and they have not exceeded the quota. What is there to say?
"Team Leader Lin, it's time to eat."
Lin Zuo's two men helped him get food, and then found an empty table and called him over.
He walked to the table impatiently and sat down, his face gloomy, as if someone owed him a hundred dollars.
The two men didn't know what the team leader was crazy about, and they didn't dare to speak. They lowered their heads and ate quietly.
Lin Zuo was sulking for a while, stretched out his chopsticks to pick up a piece of fish and put it into his mouth.
Then the expression on his face became particularly wonderful. The mixed fish tofu made by Du Shaojie was so delicious. The rich aroma exploded on his taste buds, making him unable to stop.
The more this happened, the more he hated these guys who sang against him.
After finishing the meal in silence, Lin Zuo dropped the rice bowl, stood up and quickly left the cafeteria.
His two men didn't know why, so they quickly washed the rice bowls and chased after him.
"Old Chen, did you see that? Lin Zuo didn't want us to eat better, but he couldn't resist the food. This meal was so tangled that it was hilarious."
Zhai Yucheng has such a personality. If he finds something interesting, he has to say it out, otherwise he will feel uncomfortable.
Of course, there were no outsiders at their table. They were all old colleagues who knew each other well, and he deliberately lowered his voice when he spoke, so as not to be heard by others.
"Who does Lin Zuo think he is? He was a boilerman a few years ago. He is just a person who takes chicken feathers as a token of authority. This
kind of person is the worst." Jiang Yong snorted coldly. He did not look down on the workers, but on the villains like Lin Zuo who gained power overnight.
Chen Jizhou waved his hand and said, "The Master said that it is only the villains who are difficult to raise. This is the case. I am not worried about anything else. I am only worried that Xiao Du's kindness will be used as a handle."
"It's okay, it's okay. The fish was caught by Xiao Du and the people in the field office. It didn't cost public money. What can be used as a handle? However, Lin Zuo will definitely not give up. There is a high probability that he will cause trouble in other ways."
Jiang Xianfa said with a smile. When he looked up, Du Shaojie had left the place where he was getting food and went to the kitchen.
Several people sighed and lost interest in chatting.
"Master Du, you didn't inform me when you made a good meal at noon. It's really not nice. Everyone says that today's mixed fish tofu is delicious. Is there any left?"
Chen Jizhou and others left after eating.
Zhao Dajun, Chu Xiaowei and others came late and walked into the empty canteen quickly.
With his loud voice, he called out Du Shaojie again.
"No matter who you forget, you can't forget Director Zhao. Don't worry, there is still a big bowl of fish and tofu left for you. Why don't you go and inform the people in the canteen now? One portion for each family, take it back and add a dish."
The cold-mixed cabbage was gone, but Du Shaojie left a big bowl of fish and tofu.
The reason why Zhao Dajun and others were not notified in advance was that they thought they would wait until the labor study group finished eating.
Now there are a few more annoying guys in front of everyone, especially Lin Zuo, who can find bones in eggs, which is really annoying.
"Haha, I said that Master Du does things without leaking a single drop, right? Hurry up and call people."
Zhao Dajun laughed, and then asked Chu Xiaowei to notify everyone.
After a while, every household sent a representative to the canteen to get food.
According to the director's request, Chu Xiaowei asked each family to bring the food ticket when notifying them.
The people on the farm are different from those in the labor study group. They need meal tickets to eat in the cafeteria, and they need to buy the meal tickets themselves.
"Director Zhao, most of the fish today is caught by Uncle Chu. It's not appropriate to collect meal tickets, right?"
Qin Xiaomei and Li Guixiang brought out a large basin of mixed fish and tofu, and Du Shaojie was ready to serve everyone.
But Zhao Dajun asked him to collect meal tickets, and he was a little unhappy.
Zhao Dajun stretched out a finger and pointed outside silently, the meaning was self-evident.
In the past, the farm office was in charge of the labor study group, and there was nothing wrong. Now the bureau has sent a working group, and Lin Zuo is in that state, he doesn't want to cause trouble for Du Shaojie.
Du Shaojie was silent for a while, and asked everyone to pay meal tickets according to the most common vegetarian dishes, just for the sake of courtesy.
This time Zhao Dajun didn't say a word, and soon, the basin of mixed fish and tofu was empty.
