"Dongsheng, what can you make with a rabbit head? There's not even two ounces of meat."
Fang Zhuo said puzzledly, "Didn't you see I specially saved twenty rabbits? When we need to entertain guests, we'll use rabbit meat to make dishes. Rabbit heads don't have meat on them, so they're not worth eating."
It's obvious that these words are not something a foodie would say.
In the mind of any foodie, there is nothing that cannot be eaten or that does not taste good.
What’s wrong with the rabbit head? The rabbit paws are still delicious.
"Director Fang, if you don't believe me, I'll make you a plate of rabbit heads at noon. You can try it and then decide. How about that?"
Jia Dongsheng still had to persuade Fang Zhuo. There was no other way. Two hundred and fifty rabbits meant two hundred and fifty rabbit heads. How many plates of spicy rabbit heads could be made from them?
Speaking of which, although there is not much meat in the rabbit head, the spicy rabbit head made from it is much more delicious than spicy rabbit meat. Especially when you drink a little wine and eat spicy rabbit head, it is even more irresistible, not to mention how delicious it is.
Such a good dish to go with wine will definitely become one of the specialties of the steel mill.
"Okay then, you can make one dish today and I'll try it. If it works, I'll do as you say."
Based on his confidence in Jia Dongsheng's cooking skills, Fang Zhuo finally nodded and agreed.
After a few words, the two of them decided on 250 rabbit heads. The other five kitchen supervisors could only listen in daze, because the dishes served in their canteen were not up to standard.
Even though Fang Zhuo and Jia Dongsheng were discussing the positions of all the canteen bosses, they still couldn't get a word in. After all, they were just squad leaders in the canteen, while Fang Zhuo was the canteen's director and the top boss.
At the same time, the five kitchen team leaders did not feel dissatisfied with Jia Dongsheng. One reason was that Jia Dongsheng wanted to use rabbit head as a reception dish, which was a serious matter.
Another reason is that rabbit heads are not worth eating in the eyes of the five kitchen team leaders. They share the same idea as Fang Zhuo.
After the discussion, Jia Dongsheng returned to Canteen No. 1, called the canteen staff together, went to the warehouse, and brought all 30 rabbits belonging to Canteen No. 1 back to Canteen No. 1.
"Master, are we going to kill all these rabbits?" Liu Lan looked at the little white rabbit with stars in her eyes. Although she knew it would be delicious, she still felt reluctant.
"Of course they were all killed."
Jia Dongsheng said as a matter of course: "Otherwise, if you keep these rabbits, do you have anything to feed them?"
"Dongsheng, after we kill the rabbits and send the meat to the cold storage, is the rabbit blood still useful?"
Liu Lan lived in the city and still had some feelings of unwillingness. Qin Huairu came from the countryside and didn't have that feeling. Before she got married, she had already learned how to pick up a knife and kill chickens and rabbits.
"Rabbit blood can't be frozen. Since the rabbit has been killed, let's use the rabbit blood to cook for lunch today."
After thinking for a moment, Jia Dongsheng said, "It can be used to make Maoxuewang. Although rabbit blood tastes a little worse than other blood, it is still meat after all. It can improve the food for the brothers in the factory."
"Maoxuewang?"
Qin Huairu and Liu Lan both looked at him curiously. They had never eaten Maoxuewang before and didn't know whether it tasted good or not.
"Yes, that's settled."
After deciding on the matter in a few words, Jia Dongsheng began to instruct the kitchen staff to kill the rabbit, take its blood, and keep its head.
After everything was done, Qin Huairu held up a large basin of offal and asked, "Dongsheng, what should we do with these offal? Can we eat them?"
"Of course you can eat it."
After seeing these internal organs, Jia Dongsheng finally remembered that he had forgotten about it just now.
Rabbits are herbivores, their internal organs do not contain many toxins, but their cholesterol is very high. If people eat too much of them in later generations, it would not be very good for the body to digest. But in this era, everyone is lacking in cholesterol.
The disadvantages of internal organs in later generations are all benefits in this era.
However, people of this era rarely process internal organs. Sometimes they still eat all the rabbit's internal organs together without distinguishing any of them that are slightly poisonous. This is still not acceptable.
So, after taking a look, Jia Dongsheng said, "Put this basin of offal here. I'll clean it up myself, and you guys can send the rabbit meat to the cold storage. Also, put the rabbit head in a separate basin. I'll make a dish for Director Fang later."
"Is the rabbit head a separate dish?"
Qin Huairu and Liu Lan gathered around Jia Dongsheng curiously and asked, "What kind of dishes can be made with rabbit heads?"
"Spicy rabbit head, a very delicious dish to go with wine. It will be ready soon, you can try it."
"Okay." Liu Lan responded with a smile.
Afterwards, Jia Dongsheng taught the people in the kitchen to follow him to clean the rabbit's internal organs. He would do this job once and then pass it on to others.
After it was done, the internal organs were sent to the cold storage and would not be used for the time being.
Then, Jia Dongsheng started to prepare lunch, including Maoxuewang and celery powder, Qin Huairu's braised eggplant, and Qi Shuang's stewed potatoes and green beans. Today's lunch in the No. 1 canteen was very rich.
When it's lunch time for the workers, as soon as they walk into Canteen No. 1, the spicy aroma of Maoxuewang, the fragrance of stewed potatoes and beans, the aroma of pickled eggplant, and the celery aroma of celery powder all complement each other in the canteen.
"Wow, four courses today?"
"What kind of blood is this made of? It smells so good!"
"I think it's called Maoxuewang, but what kind of blood is this made of? Why does it smell so good?"
"I don't know. I still prefer the eggplant with sauce. I'll have an extra steamed bread today."
“…”
The workers who came to Canteen No. 1 started talking happily after seeing the four dishes at the food window.
Although there is no meat, the appearance of Maoxuewang still makes people feel happy.
After all, blood comes from animals and is considered a kind of meat.
Fang Zhuo was also paying attention to everything that happened in the cafeteria. At the same time, he gradually began to look forward to the dishes made by Rabbit Head.
There is no way, when it comes to cooking, Jia Dongsheng brings too many surprises to people.
"Mmm, this spicy rabbit head is delicious!"
"Mmm, it's delicious, but too spicy, shashasha!"
"It's delicious even if it's spicy. I want another one."
In the kitchen, Liu Lan and Qin Huairu each took a spicy rabbit head and tasted it. Even though their lips turned red from the spiciness, they continued to eat it with a slurp of cold water.
Jia Dongsheng, who was standing by, was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. It was so spicy, but he could still continue eating.
"Alright, both of you, eat less. There are only thirty spicy rabbit heads in total, and we have to leave one plate for Director Fang."
That’s right, Jia Dongsheng cooked all thirty rabbit heads in one pot. There was nothing he could do. He hadn’t eaten spicy rabbit heads for a long time and was very craving for them. Besides, he worked in a cafeteria, so he couldn’t eat them all by himself, right?
So, Jia Dongsheng made thirty, left fifteen for Fang Zhuo, and the remaining fifteen were shared among the people in the kitchen.
