Siheyuan: Through Sixty Bright Life

"Mahua, the dough is crispy!"

"Liu Lan, bring 30 catties of the 5 catties of eggs that Taozi unloaded in the morning."

"The fat man is making trouble again? Call him out! Juxianlou doesn't welcome him."

……

He Yuzhu casually put on a white chef's hat, and kneaded the rolling pin vigorously.

The egg tart shell is crisped, and the focus is on the folding of the oil surface and water dough.

A ball of oil noodles and a ball of water noodles are kneaded into two cakes in equal proportions, then folded once, rubbed open, folded again, rubbed open.After three overlapping light rubbings, the crispy noodles are ready.

He Yuzhu mixed eggs, cream and sifted sugar evenly, and poured them into the bottom of the pastry.

A large plate with 8 beautiful rows of raw egg tarts standing on it.

He Yuzhu yelled, ignoring the hot sweat on his forehead.

"Liu Lan, is the kiln hot?"

"hot!"

"Success! Open the kiln! Enter the kiln!"

boom!

When the 8 rows of egg tarts came out of the kiln, the whole Juxianlou back kitchen was filled with a sweet smell of cream and butter.

Ma Hua took a deep breath intoxicated, his eyes widened in amazement.

"It's so delicious!"

Liu Lan and a few apprentices also greedily sniffed in the air to inhale the smell.

"It smells so good!"

"Master He! What kind of dim sum are you making? This is too delicious!"

"It's really delicious! I know that foreigners like to use cream to make Western food, but I didn't expect that cream can be used as desserts. Is this Hong Kong dim sum? It's quite rare."

……

The apprentices were blowing rainbow farts around He Yuzhu enthusiastically.He Daqing, who was in charge of cooking in the distance, drooped his old eyes and was unhappy.

With a calm and hoarse voice, He Daqing used the eyes of the older generation to criticize.

"What kind of dim sum in Hong Kong? It's fancy."

"It's better to have a son these days than to have an apprentice. Tan's family dishes are not good at learning, and they fix this and that every day. What's the use?"

He Daqing felt that it was useless to make dim sum, and young people still had to concentrate on learning Tan's family dishes well before passing them on.

The kitchen suddenly fell silent.

The apprentices were a little embarrassed to see He Daqing and He Yuzhu fighting each other.

It was MCA who smoothed things over.

"Master He, my master occasionally makes innovations, and the guests also want to change their tastes."

He Daqing's old face collapsed, and he was not happy.

"Change the taste? The signature of our Juxianlou is the Tan family cuisine! What kind of taste do the guests change? The more you change, the more it tastes wrong!"

Seeing that Ma Hua couldn't persuade He Daqing, the apprentices laughed and dared not answer, for fear of offending He Daqing and making him unhappy.

Chapter 186 Renewal of Juxianlou's Dishes

At this time, He Yuzhu picked up the steaming egg tart and took a big bite in front of He Daqing.

"Yeah! It's delicious!"

Fragrant egg tarts with a gurgling creamy aroma.The crispy and refreshing pastry is crunchy, and the egg tart inside is soft and sweet.It actually made people swallow their throats alive.

Ma Hua swallowed his throat.

Liu Lan also swallowed her throat.

He Yuzhu waved the egg tart in front of He Daqing, but He Daqing swallowed it in disbelief.

"What the hell is this?"

"Bring dim sum from Hong Kong City to our Juxian Building? Chinese is not Chinese, and Western is not Western. It is not appropriate!"

He Daqing was disgusted, but when he saw He Yuzhu take a big mouthful of egg tart fragrance with his eyes closed, He Daqing finally couldn't bear it anymore, and grabbed the new egg tart from He Yuzhu's hand.

"Don't do anything fancy!"

"It depends on how it tastes!"

He Daqing was disgusted, but his body was still upright, especially his uncontrollable hands, he couldn't restrain himself, and stuffed the egg tart into his mouth.

All the apprentices held their breath and stared at He Daqing's expression curiously and expectantly.

"Master He, how does it taste?"

"Master He, speak up."

"Is this delicious or not? I'm so anxious."

……

He Daqing closed his eyes, chewed for a full minute, and thought about it for another minute.Only then did he stare in surprise, wanting to praise, but he didn't because of face, so he pointed at the egg tart and didn't say a word.

He Yuzhu helped He Daqing and said, "Dad, it's really delicious, isn't it!"

"After eating a table of steaming Tan's dishes, a small piece of egg tart is delicious, isn't it?"

He Daqing glared at He Yuzhu, wanting to reprimand him for being poor.But He Daqing didn't say anything in the end, just said coldly.

"Zhuzi, you should learn all the dishes of the Tan family first, and then fix the useful and useless ones. Don't forget the old book."

Tanjia cuisine is the ancestral handicraft of the He family.

When everyone heard what He Daqing said, they immediately agreed in their hearts, thinking it made sense.

He Yuzhu has to practice the ancestral craftsmanship before making innovations, otherwise he will forget his roots.

how do you know...

He Yuzhu rolled up his sleeves and took the spoon.

The fire was licking the bottom of the pot, and he was skillfully explaining while preparing the dishes.

"Tan's dishes are salty and sweet, the seasonings pay attention to the original taste, the cooking is full of heat, the ingredients are ruthless, and the dishes are soft and rotten, so they taste delicious!"

"Tan's cuisine has nearly [-] kinds of dishes, and seafood dishes are the most famous. Especially the clear soup jelly in Tan's cuisine is more unique. Sugar and salt are half and half, with sweetness for freshness, and with Salty and fragrant."

"Another characteristic of Tan's cuisine is that it pays attention to the original taste. When eating chicken, you must taste the taste of chicken, and when eating fish, you must taste the freshness of fish. You must not use other peculiar smells to interfere with the original taste of the dishes."

"When stewing vegetables, you must not continue to add soup or add juice, otherwise, it will not be called the original juice. More attention should be paid to cooking with hanging broth."

……

He Yuzhu explained while cooking, and soon a plate of Tan family dishes with all kinds of color, fragrance and taste came out.

"There are more than a dozen cooking methods for shark's fin, such as three silk shark's fin, crab roe shark's fin, casserole shark's fin, stewed shark's fin, thick soup shark's fin, sea stewed shark's fin."

"Among all shark's fin dishes, braised shark's fin is the best. This dish is made from precious yellow meat fins, and the whole fin is particular about eating."

"Specialties include clear soup jelly, Arhat prawns, firewood duck..."

……

wow wow wow.

He Yuzhu's hands and feet are numb, and Tan Jiacai's cooking skills are even more amazing.

He doesn't even need to learn from the system's skills, he can just use the original owner's Tan family cooking skills.The original owner, as the heir of Kung Fu cuisine of Tan family cuisine, has top-notch craftsmanship.He Daqing went back to Forty-Nine City every time in the original drama for decades. If he came back, he would definitely be overwhelmed by He Yuzhu's superb cooking skills.

A whole table of the main specialties of Tan's cuisine covered the back kitchen table.

Agar-agar in clear soup, Arhat prawns, firewood duck, braised shark's fin...

Maya was shocked.

Liu Lan was shocked.

He Daqing was so shocked that he rubbed his presbyopic eyes.

He originally thought that He Yuzhu's son was just dangling with half a bucket of water, but how could he have actually learned his Tan family dishes!

Ma Hua hurriedly handed over the chopsticks, "Master He, please try Master's handicraft."

He Daqing looked at He Yuzhu in disbelief, but he still kept his expression on, and calmly took a bite of braised shark fin with his chopsticks in between.

After tasting it, He Daqing only felt layers of rich fresh fragrance explode in his mouth, as if his mouth was shining with golden light.

His cloudy old eyes flashed light instantly, and he was amazed by the traditional and authentic Tanjia dish yellow braised shark's fin.

"Pillar, this is you, what did you do?"

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Dad, I didn't make it, how could it be you? I just reheated the braised shark's fin you made in the pot?"

He Daqing was devastated.

He saw He Yuzhu's cooking process clearly, but he couldn't believe it.

Because, this braised shark's fin Tan family dish is even more authentic than his cooking!

"Zhu, Zhuzi, for the past ten years or so, have you devoted yourself to practicing your craft?"

Speaking of past grievances, He Yuzhu also became serious and said solemnly.

"Dad. When I and He Yushui were young, my mother was gone, so you abandoned us and went to Baocheng alone."

"You said that you sent it back every month, but it was cut off by some uncles in the courtyard. The two of us, brothers and sisters, didn't even see a copper coin."

"If I don't work hard, what will the rain and I eat and drink?"

"A child without a father or a mother must work harder to get through those days."

……

He Yuzhu's tone was low and his speech was very slow.

All the apprentices had tears in their eyes, and Liu Lan wiped away their tears.
