Chapter 197 Devil, you are so cruel!
Su Chen finished processing the eggplants and was just about to continue working.
At this time, a black dot in the distance grew bigger and bigger, and came closer and closer.
His eyes were involuntarily drawn to it.
I saw a young man riding a small electric scooter galloping towards me.
He rode like he was ordering Meituan takeout, so fast that only a shadow could be seen!
They were almost there when the assistant director slammed on the brakes and stopped not far from Su Chen's dining car.
It’s not that I don’t want to stop in front of the stall, but it’s mainly because there are too many people on Wansheng Street at this time, and the electric scooter can’t move at all.
He pulled out the key and rushed towards Su Chen's stall.
Maybe I was running too fast and accidentally stumbled.
He lost his balance and fell forward.
"Bang!"
When no one reacted yet.
He just fell to his knees with a lithe air and fell heavily in front of the dining cart.
"father"
"I fell..."
Everything seemed so unexpected.
Su Chen's face twitched when he saw this.
This poor kid, how painful it must be!
Unexpectedly, the young assistant didn't even let anyone help him, nor did he care whether he was injured or not.
Instead, the first thing he said after getting up was to place an order in a hurry.
"Boss, quick! Give me six servings of garlic and dried scallops."
Everyone was stunned.
"Holy crap, man, this doesn't hurt you?"
"You're in such a hurry, I guess it's just to eat. You really have a good appetite."
"You didn't fall on purpose just to attract the boss's attention so he can make you food first, did you?"
"Can you finish six servings?"
“…”
"Haha, it's for someone."
The assistant patted his trouser legs.
Six copies are actually not a lot. The director and producer will each get two copies later.
After running two times, I have some room in my stomach and can even eat two more servings at once. What a great thing!
The garlic and scallop jerky doesn’t take long to prepare. They are all hot in the steamer, and the sauce is also ready. You can basically buy them whenever you want.
Soon, the assistant hung six portions of food on the handlebars of the electric scooter, turned the handlebars and ran away.
Many diners are still waiting in front of the stall for steamed eggplant with garlic.
For a serving of eggplant, 60% of the taste is due to the eggplant itself.
If it is steamed properly, it will melt in your mouth and give you a dense and delicate feeling.
The remaining 40% of the flavor highlights are all supported by the garlic sauce.
If cooked well, the spicy and garlicky flavors can elevate the original flavor of the eggplant to several levels.
Otherwise it would be a waste of the dish.
At this time, Su Chen was making garlic sauce.
In terms of the way of processing garlic paste, he borrowed the "gold and silver garlic" from Cantonese cuisine.
Fried garlic is "gold" and unfried garlic is "silver".
Golden garlic is more fragrant, while silver garlic can retain some of the raw and spicy flavor of garlic, creating a subtle sense of layering.
Butler Ding had already followed Su Chen's instructions.
Crush the garlic into minced garlic, keep half of it raw, and fry the other half in a pan with oil until fragrant.
Garlic is easily susceptible to heat and can be easily over-fried if you are not careful.
The oil temperature must not be too high, and the amount of oil must not be too little, so that the garlic will not stick to the wall of the pot when frying.
The minced garlic can be served when it changes color, but it does not need to be fried until it is too brown.
The minced garlic should be soaked in oil after frying, so that it is moist and not bitter.
Su Chen also cut some pickled Erjingtiao. This kind of pickled pepper has a softer taste and is not as spicy. It tastes even better when mixed with golden and silver garlic to make steamed ingredients.
Add the chopped pickled peppers into the pot and stir-fry together with the fried golden garlic.
After taking it out of the pot, mix the ingredients in the pot and the remaining silver garlic together.
Just pour it directly on the eggplant and start steaming it.
"Don't worry, we still have to wait for ten minutes."
…
Set.
The director was enjoying a bite of garlic eggplant and a sip of rice soup.
The eggplant is dense and soft, and the taste is fresh and salty. You can't stop eating it.
Producer Zhang, who was sitting next to him, was stunned for a long time before his brain restarted. He looked at the garlic eggplant, and a green light gradually appeared in his eyes.
This eggplant has red pickled pepper on it, it's spicy and he can't eat it.
However, the chopsticks in his hand seemed to have a mind of their own and stretched out honestly.
Director: Hmm???
"Uh, it's none of my business! I don't like eggplant, who's greedy? It's just my hand that won't obey me!"
Producer Zhang denied it three times in a row.
After saying that, he simply let go.
I poured some mineral water into the lunch box that had been licked clean after I had eaten the garlic and dried scallop jerky.
Then, he hurriedly picked up a piece of eggplant, rinsed it, and put it in his mouth.
He chewed it a few times.
Suddenly, Producer Zhang started jumping up and down as if he was breathing fire.
His face turned red instantly, and his tongue stuck out like a puppy, sucking in the cool air frantically.
Use your hand as a fan to fan your tongue.
Tears could not be controlled and fell to the ground, "hiss, hiss, hiss!"
It's so spicy that I don't want to spit it out. It's so delicious.
In just that instant, Eggplant completely changed the situation in his heart, and his reputation took a 180-degree turn.
My head is full of happy little stars.
The director saw this and laughed at him.
"Lao Zhang, can you please stop eating since it's so spicy? Don't force yourself to eat it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Producer Zhang seemed to trigger a switch.
Immediately close your mouth that is sticking out your tongue.
But my saliva was still being secreted, so I could only swallow it continuously, and my face turned red.
Say it firmly.
"Actually, I don't think it's that spicy. It's just okay. I just need to get used to it!"
director:……
It's so spicy that it's about to burst, and you still say it's not spicy!
He continued to ask with a sincere look on his face.
“Is it really not spicy?”
Producer Zhang's eyes were wide open, his whole body flushed, and tears were welling up in his eyes.
But he didn't dare to make any "hiss" sound.
"It's not spicy," he emphasized. "This thing is spicy at both ends. Hiss~ Not spicy, not spicy at all."
The director couldn't help but smile when he heard this.
You, Old Zhang, even if the food is so spicy that you are jumping up and down, you are as determined as joining the party and insist that it is not spicy.
Then don't blame him.
"Here, drink some hot tea to calm down!"
The director poured out a cup of steaming hot tea, and Producer Zhang's pupils trembled violently.
Oh devil, you are truly cruel! Hell is empty, and the King of Hell is on earth.
You want to kill him!
“No, no, no…”
Producer Zhang quickly picked up the iced mung bean soup beside him and took a big gulp.
Wait until the deadly spicy taste in your mouth gradually passes.
He stretched out his chopsticks again and picked up a piece of eggplant from the lunch box.
"Lao Zhang, what are you doing? Are you still eating???"
“…”
When the assistant director came back in a hurry on an electric bike.
I saw two old men who were usually serious and solemn, arguing with each other with red faces, like the aunties scrambling for eggs in the vegetable market.
"Hey, hey, hey, director and producer, stop arguing. The food is here, two servings are enough for each person."
