Chapter 379: Tired, Destroy...
For Su Chen, the later he could face this doll costume, the better.
No matter how beautiful the packaging is, he will never open it on the spot.
Thinking of this, Su Chen transferred all the delivered ingredients to the kitchen to prepare today's caramel pearl milk tea.
After checking, I found out that the milk provided by Tongzi this time is New Zealand milk.
It is said that it is produced on the best ranches, fed using scientific methods, and collected regularly, making it very noble.
The tea used is also special, it is Zhengshan Xiaozhong from Wuyi Mountain.
Okay, let’s make some tea first.
Su Chen found an electronic scale and weighed the required amount of tea.
As for the water for making tea, tap water will not work. It will smell like bleach. How can you drink the tea made with it?
Moreover, water stays in the pipes for a long time and contains more iron.
When the iron ion content in water exceeds 5 parts per thousand, the tea soup will turn brown, and the reaction between chloride and polyphenols in tea will form a layer of "rust oil" on the surface of the tea soup, making it taste bitter.
So it is better to use mountain spring water.
Su Chen took out a bottle of mountain spring water from the supplies delivered and poured the water into the measuring cup according to the proportion.
Butler Ding found a small pot specially used for making tea, placed it on the fire, poured spring water into it and boiled it over high heat, then began to add Zhengshan Xiaozhong.
After about a minute, you can turn off the heat.
Of course, this is not the best condition yet, but the tea leaves should continue to steep for about two to three minutes.
The tea leaves must be completely expanded and sink to the bottom of the pot before they are considered cooked. The final tea soup is a beautiful reddish-brown color, clear and translucent.
At the same time, a deep and lasting aroma of pine smoke began to spread, just like being in a forest, with the freshness and tranquility unique to nature.
“Good tea!”
Su Chen couldn't help but mutter.
Even though his attainments in tea ceremony were not high, he could intuitively feel the quality of the tea just by smelling it.
Su Chen fished out all the tea leaves, leaving only the tea soup.
When putting it into the tea bucket, he also added a certain amount of ice cubes according to the proportion.
The purpose of ice cubes is to cool down the tea, lock in the aroma, slow down the oxidation process of the tea and prevent the astringency from being released.
After finishing this, I will turn around and deal with the pearls.
Under normal circumstances, you just use ready-made pearls and cook them lightly.
But Su Chen has to do it himself.
Fortunately, making pearls is relatively simple. Pour sugar and spring water into a pot, heat to boiling, then add tapioca starch while stirring.
When you feel they are about right, knead them into a ball.
The dough should be kneaded to a moderate hardness and softness. First, roll it into long strips, then cut it into small pieces of uniform size and shape them into round balls.
The rubbed pearls cannot be used directly and need to be boiled.
Bring to a boil over high heat and cook for seven or eight minutes. When the pearls float up and become transparent, remove them and marinate in black sugar syrup for half an hour.
Caramel sauce is also essential.
When the honey and sugar turn into amber syrup at the bottom of the pot, pour in the hot cream and add a pinch of sea salt to increase the richness.
The last step is assembly, which is scored in three levels.
First, coat the sides of the cup with caramel sauce, then pour in ice cubes and brown sugar pearls. Pour milk into the middle layer, and then slowly pour the Lapsang Souchong tea on top along the ice cubes to create a gradient.
No one present liked milk tea, so everyone shared a sip.
It has the aroma of milk, the fresh fragrance of tea, the perfect caramel and the silky taste in the mouth, plus the surprise of chewing pearls.
One can't help but sigh at Su Chen's craftsmanship.
"Slurp~ The combination of good tea and good milk is just different. This cup probably costs several times more than regular milk tea."
"More than that, this tea is quite expensive."
“It’s really delicious!”
The group of people were so drunk that they drank a lot of milk tea and didn't even have lunch.
When you burp, your mouth is full of the taste of milk.
…
During the time Su Chen was making milk tea.
The old customers started a new round of "searching for Boss Su".
Especially the old diners from South City.
I didn’t get to eat it last week, so all the cities were on their guess list.
But it is too difficult to find it manually.
Then they began to unite and organized a fan club for Boss Su.
Specifically used to collect information and find Su Chen.
Now it is not just a gathering place for fans in one city or one place, everyone finally has a unified "combat command center".
As a result, big news broke out just after the website was established.
I learned that Su Chen was still in Guizhou last week and sold hamburgers for a week.
This disappointed everyone.
"Oh my God! How could no one say anything about such a big thing? They actually concealed it and didn't report it, and didn't communicate with each other."
"A hamburger! It's a hamburger!"
"We've been in the same place twice in a row. Have we, the people of South City, been abandoned like this?"
Regular rice noodle eaters also feel aggrieved about this.
There aren’t enough burgers for the locals to eat. If you go later, you won’t be able to grab one even if you try to grab one from the internet cafe’s machines.
…
It was approaching five o'clock.
Su Chen began to make final preparations for the upcoming business.
He put cups of milk tea into the thermal box and also prepared a small whiteboard and a cart.
Su Chen thought about it and started setting the price.
"Caramel bubble milk tea 30/cup."
This price is a bit higher than normal store.
But he thinks this is completely reasonable. After all, he uses high-quality raw materials, and coupled with his own craftsmanship, this price is really a conscience price.
Add a few more lines of purchasing instructions below the menu.
"The food sold on this food truck requires a specific spell to be opened."
"Welcoming spell: Hehehe~ Little cutie, would you like some stolen delicacies?"
"Buy a spell: Evil Plankton! You've stolen the secret recipe again! Give it to me now!"
“Customers need to chant a purchasing spell before they can buy food.”
"Please recite the spell loudly to start the delicious meal."
After writing, Su Chen couldn't help but slap himself on the forehead.
Asking is social death!
But it is certain that you should clearly inform customers of the purchase requirements. You can’t let customers guess on their own, right?
Who could have guessed this?
Faced with these two lines that were so embarrassing that I dug my toes into the ground again, I still couldn't bear to look at them.
Tired, destroy it...
Su Chen sighed and finally looked at the gift box resignedly.
Ever since this thing was delivered to him, he has never thought of opening it.
But it has been delayed until now and there is no way to delay it any further.
Su Chen pulled the silk ribbon and opened the lid.
There was indeed a complete set of doll clothes inside.
Because the doll costume was vacuum-compressed and packaged, Mr. Krabs's headgear was squeezed and deformed, making it look even uglier.
Su Chen directly stuffed the doll costume into the car.
It’s not too late to put it on when you get to the business place. You can’t just walk around the streets wearing this weird doll costume.
Just imagining that scene made him feel extremely embarrassed.
Absolutely not!
