Food: The super chef just wants to set up a stall leisurely

Chapter 253 Wang Jiandang's Good Ingredients

After Wang Jiandang left, Zhao Xiaojing drove the car and stared at the two large bags of food on the passenger seat and became interested.

Normally, when Wang Jiandang and Chen Huiping ate at her place, they gave her more than she could pay back. But now she had a quality appraisal module, which could secretly upgrade the grade. As long as it was not outrageous, even if they could taste something different, they would not be able to guess the reason and would only think that the meat of the beach sheep was of good quality.

Moreover, the ingredients are optimized before returning to the restaurant, so when people in the store see the food, they won’t know the difference. When the dish is cooked, Wang Jiandang and his wife won’t be able to tell the difference. It’s a perfect closed loop.

It just so happens that the special favorability task has not been completed yet, so I can try the method of improving the ingredients, which can also give me a direction.

But it doesn’t matter even if there is no progress. Wang Jiandang and his wife are nice people, so just consider it as a disguised form of repayment.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xiaojing turned the car and parked it in the paid parking lot near the store.

Unfasten your seat belt and turn on the identification module for verification.

[Authentic Ning Province beach lamb ribs, slaughtered seven days ago, frozen, thawed, and frozen again. Quality: Grade 2.]

???

Zhao Xiaojing, who had never eaten Ning Province's beach sheep, now deeply understood its value.

It has been slaughtered for seven days and has gone through a round of freezing, thawing, and freezing again, but the quality can still reach level two?

"What kind of sheep is upgraded to level one?" Zhao Xiaojing asked.

【Freshly slaughtered Ning Province Tan sheep. 】

"What about the special grade?"

[Growing up in the vast grasslands, eating natural pesticide-free high-quality grass, drinking snow water melted from the alpine snowfields, climbing walls and climbing on mountain ridges, and occasionally eating precious snow lotus on the cliffs, the sheep have developed a system of sweet and firm mutton with a perfect fat-to-lean ratio. ]

Sounds like a better living condition than hers? Zhao Xiaojing choked up.

[The premium ingredients produced by the system are not fanciful, they are formulated based on the world the host is in, and will not deviate too much from the existing world.]

Seeing Zhao Xiaojing remained silent, the system began to explain.

Zhao Xiaojing nodded and felt inexplicably relieved.

Should it be upgraded to the first grade or the special grade? She had never tasted either type, so she didn't know the difference. Although she would not be separated from the real world, what if the taste difference was too obvious?

"System, I'm upgrading in the virtual space and making all the ingredients to taste. After I come out, the upgrade is also virtual, and the spending of system coins is also virtual, right?" Zhao Xiaojing blinked and asked silently in her heart.

This time it was the system's turn to be silent.

Zhao Xiaojing secretly raised the corner of her mouth. According to the system's inertia, silence means there is a loophole to exploit! And the system did not expect this loophole!

Without asking any further questions, Zhao Xiaojing went straight into the virtual space.

Four minutes, or six hours in the virtual space, later, Zhao Xiaojing moved her eyes and smiled.

During these six hours, she not only upgraded and compared the taste of lamb, but also tried the seasoning ratio, and now she has found the most suitable method.

While waiting for the mutton to be cooked, I also tried the winter bamboo shoots on the side.

"System, upgrade the mutton to the first grade, and the winter bamboo shoots to the special grade." Zhao Xiaojing muttered to herself as she started the car.

She had tried it just now, and the taste would indeed be better if the mutton was upgraded to the special grade, but the appearance of the mutton was different from what it is now. The mutton could not be finished, and the remaining half would be returned to Chen Huiping and the others. It would be difficult to explain if people noticed that the mutton was different. It would be more reliable to upgrade it to the same kind of sheep.

Winter bamboo shoots are different. Although they look more beautiful and tender after being upgraded, the difference is not that big. Moreover, she cooks them in one meal and no one knows when they are done.

However, the winter bamboo shoots that Wang Jiandang gave were actually rated level two, and because of the season, it was not the time when the winter bamboo shoots were the freshest and tenderest, so it was only rated level two.

It turned out to be wild bamboo shoots growing in the mountains. The gift from the customer was really a good thing.

As for the shiitake mushrooms, they were directly identified as grade one and they were also from the mountains, so Zhao Xiaojing didn't need to upgrade them.

The system didn't make any sound, but the text message on the phone about deducting money rang. Zhao Xiaojing turned around, opened the bag and took a look. The ingredients had been upgraded.

It only cost 1 yuan to upgrade a rack of lamb ribs, and 0 system coin for winter bamboo shoots. Considering the price of the ingredients, it was cheaper than yesterday's strawberries.

But I upgraded from level 4 yesterday, so I can understand why it’s expensive.

Zhao Xiaojing was thinking about all these things the whole time and drove back to the shop in less than two minutes.

The parking space was vacant as usual. After Zhao Xiaojing parked the car, Geng Mingyan and Hou Guihua ran over from next door, carrying large and small bags of things into the kitchen.

"Why did you take so long to shop today? What fresh ingredients did you come across?" Su Yuchen was carrying the blanched ingredients for the braised pot and was about to go next door when he saw Zhao Xiaojing come in. He glanced left and right at the ingredients that were brought in, and then looked at the bag in Zhao Xiaojing's hand.

Behind Su Yuchen, Geng Mingyan and Hou Guihua were sorting the ingredients in the bags. Ouyang Yidan and Wu Kaile took some fresh vegetables and began to wash them. Lu Hongwen took out some of the meat and put some in the refrigerator to soak in the blood water. Wan Yuyue and Yun Yongyuan had been busy cutting the prepared vegetables in the kitchen since Zhao Xiaojing came in, without even raising their heads.

"I met Uncle Wang and asked him to help him prepare three dishes to entertain guests at noon." Zhao Xiaojing raised the bag in her hand, took out a basin from the shelf, and began to prepare Wang Jiandang's ingredients.

The mutton was chopped into pieces, half of which was soaked in blood water, and the other half was divided into two portions and frozen in the refrigerator. As for the winter bamboo shoots, Zhao Xiaojing picked up the knife while observing the attention of the people around her. Seeing that everyone was too busy to raise their heads, Zhao Xiaojing turned her back and put the winter bamboo shoots into a deep basin, and used the quick module to peel them in 1 second. Then she rinsed them together with the mushrooms, cut the winter bamboo shoots longitudinally, cut the mushrooms in half, and cut a few into thick slices. She also gave a few radishes to Ouyang Yidan to wash and peel.

Then take out the cooking pot, put in the winter bamboo shoots, add water and a small amount of salt, turn on high heat and wait for it to boil.

"Xiao Zhao, put the basin here for you." As soon as the fire was turned on, Geng Mingyan and Hou Guihua came over with two basins full of pork strips and placed them on the workbench next to Zhao Xiaojing.

The store has been making crispy pork for two consecutive weeks. Fried foods cool down quickly in winter, but many people like to buy crispy pork to cook in hot pot. Zhao Xiaojing and her friends also like to eat it in hot pot, so they haven't changed the variety and customers like it.

"Okay." Zhao Xiaojing walked over upon seeing this, took the various seasonings on the workbench as well as the batter and eggs prepared by the two older sisters, weighed them one by one, and poured them into the pork strips.

The task of seasoning is now completely handed over to Zhao Xiaojing. Zhao Xiaojing is better at this kind of large-dose preparation and can grasp the taste more accurately.

After Zhao Xiaojing put all the seasonings in place, the two older sisters put on gloves and stood aside, using all their strength to continuously stir the seasonings and meat strips.

Zhao Xiaojing turned around, waited for the water to boil, then turned down the heat and boiled it for another 1 minutes.
