Chapter 470 Who would have thought that she would open a hot pot restaurant in ancient times!
Not only the three shopkeepers and the waiters, but even Gu Yanchen was shocked by the ingredients she mentioned.
Shopkeeper Zhao couldn't speak straight and kept stuttering.
"Cow, cow stomach?"
"Mrs. Gu... isn't it a bad idea to let the guests eat shit?"
Shopkeeper Dou Qingdou looked honest and simple-minded, and spoke directly from his innermost thoughts.
Everyone present was stunned.
Ran Qingxuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and hurriedly explained: "You guys have misunderstood. Only these two stomachs of the cow are edible, and they taste great after being boiled for a short time."
"Wait until we buy it and process it, and you'll know after you eat it."
As soon as I heard it, I let them eat. The people who were originally happy suddenly lost their appetite.
"Let's buy it first..."
The three of them went out and happened to meet Duan Ling who was returning with the cook.
"Three shopkeepers, where are you going?"
"Mrs. Gu asked us to go buy groceries. We will be back soon."
Duan Ling nodded, and after leading people into the store, she was instantly shocked by the sudden scene.
"Oh my God, did you get all these tables, chairs, pots, pans, and bowls during this period of time?"
She had been out for less than an hour, how did Ran Qingxuan do it?
The tool man Gu Yanchen came out and explained: "Although the status is gone, money can do a lot of things."
"Besides, Madam has already started preparations after discussing with you, so it can be done in a short time."
Duan Ling always felt that Gu Yanchen was showing off their affection invisibly, and when she was about to speak, she noticed that the tables were different.
Ran Qingxuan told her that she would know soon and began to make preparations.
"You watch how I do it, and once the customers arrive, you will know how to operate it."
There is no skill required to burn or place the charcoal. You just need to make sure that the guests will not be burned during the placement process.
In addition to them and the people who came to clean the place at the beginning, there are about twenty people including the cooks, so we have to open at least three tables.
Ran Qingxuan asked the waiter and the waitress to take care of the remaining two tables, while she took the cook to the kitchen.
The kitchen was fully stocked with everything, and it was the first time the cook had seen a pot that was divided into two and had a hole in the middle.
After Ran Qingxuan explained to the chefs how to place the base ingredients in different types of pots, he began to teach them how to mix them.
The chefs that Duan Ling hired had all signed contracts with the Duan family, so she had no worries that they would leak the ingredients to other families.
Moreover, the base material is a finished product and can be put in after unpacking the package, but other things still need to be added. Even if you know how to mix it, you don’t know how to boil it.
In addition, the Duan family has a Marquis of Zhenbei to keep things under control, so these people dare not have any bad intentions.
The fact that Duan Ling invited them here showed that she trusted them. The chefs knew that they had heavy responsibilities on their shoulders and they studied very seriously.
After the preparation was completed, the chef prepared two shuangyuan hotpots himself, and even Ran Qingxuan taught him how to prepare the clear soup.
Of course, Ran Qingxuan is not very familiar with these ingredients, but a casual search in the mall on the tablet will show that there are many businesses selling ingredient lists. After all, as a platform for time travelers, they will naturally take these into consideration.
It’s just that the store now uses finished products. If we open stores in other places in the future, we won’t be able to use only finished products like we do now.
If possible, she still wants the chef to learn how to make the base ingredients himself.
But for now, the stores opened in various places can only use the finished products first, and they will have time to do it after they settle down.
At this time, Shopkeeper Zhao who went to buy meat had returned. According to the Northern Qi law, working oxen could not be slaughtered. It was also because Shopkeeper Zhao was familiar with the butcher that he had the opportunity to buy the beef head and tenderloin.
Lamb was easier to buy, so Ran Qingxuan signaled the chef to cut the lamb into strips, tenderloin, topside, tendon, crotch, and tri-fork, and told them that only these were the meats that could be used.
Several chefs worked together and quickly cut the other meats into the size and thickness required by Ran Qingxuan.
The process of marinating pork belly and spare ribs is very simple, and a cook can learn it in no time.
While preparing the vegetables, Ran Qingxuan remembered that something was missing.
"Where's the beef stomach I want?"
Shopkeeper Zhao smiled awkwardly and said, "Usually, the butcher would throw away this kind of thing after cutting it off. When I went to buy it, he had already thrown it away together with the pig's stomach.
When he heard that I wanted to buy it, he asked his apprentice to pick it up and bring it to me later. ”
When he heard that all the things had been thrown away, Ran Qingxuan felt that it was a waste of resources.
When the pot was put on the table and started cooking, everyone realized that the table could actually be used in this way.
"It's freezing cold outside, and it's so wonderful for the whole family to sit together and eat hot pot like this in winter."
It was the first time for several shop owners to see people eating in this way. While they were curious, they saw a rising star in the future of catering.
It was at this moment that a strong stench blew towards me in the wind.
Outside the shop, the butcher's apprentice was pushing a cart with a look of disgust on his face.
"Manager Zhao, I've brought the things you wanted. Where should I put them?"
"Please move to the backyard, little brother."
Ran Qingxuan was also overwhelmed by the smell, so he gave the boy a dozen copper coins and the boy happily moved it to the backyard.
The process of preparing beef and pork tripe is really daunting, but the chef did not dislike it at all and quickly prepared it according to Ran Qingxuan's requirements.
After washing their hands several times with the soap she provided, the cooks were able to barely stop smelling the odor.
The black tripe and tripe are cut and placed on a plate, and the midnight snack officially begins.
Under Ran Qingxuan's arrangement, several chefs were separated and sat at two tables with the waiters.
Following the instructions she gave, these people also remembered which part to blanch for how long and what sauce to dip it in.
No one started eating the tripe until the brave Xu Yongnian learned from Ran Qingxuan how to blanch the tripe. He only ate one piece and never stopped eating.
When others saw it and tried it, they were all amazed.
“Perhaps this tripe dish will become a signature dish of the store!”
No one doubts this at all!
After the meal, both the cook and the three shopkeepers were already impressed by the food on the table in front of them.
Although waiters and waitresses can eat meat once a month, compared with what they ate today, they felt that their knowledge was still limited.
After one night, the empty shops on the busiest street in Silver Moon City were opened. People who got up early passed by and looked in through the windows and were immediately shocked by the neat and uniform arrangements.
After the meal, Ran Qingxuan gave them emergency training, and it could be said that everything was prepared in advance.
Even the daily dishes are written and hung on signs, so diners can see what they want to eat just by looking up.
Every waiter has a small booklet of three copies hanging around his waist. After diners order their dishes, one copy is left on the table, and the remaining two are given to the counter and the kitchen respectively. It is so convenient.
She kept about ten boxes full of this kind of paper, enough to last for a long time.
The city gate opened, and Gu Yanchen also received the news. Ran Qingxuan finally breathed a sigh of relief when she learned that the team would arrive in the afternoon. After all, she felt that there were still many things that had not been explained.
