MTL - Call Me Daddy-Chapter 29 , A pair of prodigal sons (12)
"Shock! The well-known anchor visited the Fly Restaurant in the village of the city, and the owner turned out to be...》
"There are two buildings at home, cooking is just a hobby"
…
Any interesting news on the Internet these days will be quickly captured by netizens and spread.
Xiaopang Cuisine is a relatively well-known Internet celebrity. Some highlights of his live broadcast are highly rebroadcasted. In addition, this time the news also brought demolition households, local tyrants, and the phrase "I'm never interested in money" like Papa Ma. speech, so it is a matter of course that it explodes in a small area.
In a short period of time, many accounts flooded into Su Aobai's live broadcast room, and they came to pay their respects to the owner of the small restaurant who was rumored to have two buildings worth tens of millions of dollars.
Of course, such a huge influx of accounts is only temporary, and whether people can be retained depends on watching the content of the video.
"Slicing potatoes is easy."
At this time, Su Aobai was instructing his son to cut potatoes. Today's vegetarian dish has a home-style three delicacies. Potatoes, eggplants, and green peppers need to be cut into pieces.
Su Tianyuan had only practiced his knife skills for a few days, so the ingredients he cut were not even, big and small.
Su Quangen and Su Aobai also took this into consideration when formulating their recipes. In the three fresh dishes from the ground, eggplants, potatoes, and green peppers must first be deep-fried, and then stir-fried and seasoned with sauce. The ingredients themselves will be cooked very well, and poor knife skills will not affect the taste of the dishes.
It may also be because the requirements for knife skills are not high, Su Quangen watched his grandson cut up the ingredients of different sizes and did not say anything, which made Su Tianyuan mistakenly think that he was actually doing pretty well.
But Su Aobai couldn't stand it anymore, he sighed, took a peeled, round potato, and then took the sharp big kitchen knife from his son.
"Cutting potatoes is already the easiest way to deal with it."
Hearing this, Su Tianyuan pursed his lips. He has been practicing knife skills for four days, and his father has never touched this big kitchen knife. In comparison, he must not be as good as himself.
Although Su Tianyuan admitted that his father was better at peeling yams than him, cutting vegetables with a large kitchen knife and peeling vegetables with a paring knife are completely different things.
"Unconvinced?"
Su Aobai raised his eyes and said in a calm tone.
Su Tianyuan didn't answer this question, he hummed lightly to express his dissatisfaction.
[Walker]: The small vegetable cutter is really average with a knife. My son who is in his teens who often helps with housework is better at cutting than him. It's time for the anchor to teach him.
【2333】: Hahaha, the one upstairs just came to the live broadcast room not long ago, I'm afraid you will be disappointed, the anchor himself can't cook, if you really want to teach, you have to let the old man do it, but the old man is in charge of the stove, I'm afraid I don't have time.
There are a bunch of people waiting to see a good show in the barrage, thinking that the anchor may make a fool of himself instead of teaching his son.
"It's not difficult to cut into pieces, so I'll show you a shredded one."
Su Aobai is used to speaking with strength.
He first cut off a small side of the round potato, so that the potato can be placed flat on the cutting board.
"When holding the knife, the posture must be correct. The knife surface is perpendicular to the finger joints. The height of the kitchen knife should not be too high. Now cut the potatoes into slices and slice them as thinly as possible. If you are not skilled at the beginning, you can slow down."
While doing it, Su Aobai said that he asked his son to cut slowly, but he only slowed down the speed when cutting the first few slices, and then started to speed up. In the video, only the parts below the chest of Su Aobai were in the shot. At first, everyone's eyes were also focused on his hands chopping vegetables.
The screen was filled with the sound of intensive contact between blades and cutting boards. In just a dozen seconds, Su Aobai finished the last cut, and then gently pressed and twisted the sliced potatoes with his fingers. A seemingly complete potato It instantly turned into flakes and neatly stacked on the cutting board. The thickness of each slice was the same, with a distance of less than one millimeter.
"When shredding, the fingers are bent, and the knuckles of the middle knuckles are against the body of the knife."
The first sound of chopping vegetables sounded, there was a pause, and then it was like turning on the accelerator again.
While chopping vegetables, Su Aobai was also distracted from teaching.
"The hand holding the potato slices moves with the knife. The knuckles must be against the back of the knife. Just like when slicing before, the kitchen knife should not be lifted too high to prevent cutting your fingers. At first, you can take your time. When you become proficient, you can do it slowly." You can speed up chopping vegetables like me."
After Su Aobai made the last cut, the blade of the knife was close to the cutting board, and the blade shoveled under the shredded potatoes. He put the pile of shredded potatoes on the wide surface of the knife, and shook them all into the clean water basin beside him.
Originally, some sticky potato shreds were naturally scattered in the water due to the starch naturally exuded from the potatoes, and each one was as thin as a silk thread.
[Believer]: This is the anchor you say can't cook... so the standard of cooking is so high these days.
[You are all right]: Knowing how to cut vegetables does not mean knowing how to cook, but I am really convinced by the anchor's knife skills, it is too neat.
A bunch of rewards swarmed in.
[Chicken Pecking Rice]: Why do I, a social animal, unconsciously throw a landmine even though I know the anchor is a local tycoon who owns two buildings.
[Duckling Run]: Brain: I want to throw mines, Wallet: No, you can’t, Hands: Already cast.
The impact brought by such neat knife work is not at the same level as the feeling brought by Su Aobai when he peeled the yam skin neatly before. Many people have begun to doubt what Su Aobai said before. Has he really never cooked?
Or, have never cooked, but can cut vegetables? But judging from Su Tianyuan's expression when he heard his father say that he was going to teach him how to chop vegetables, the level of the two should be about the same.
This is true for the netizens who are separated from the screen, let alone Su Tianyuan who is watching from a close distance.
His mouth grew wide, and his eyes were wide and round.
This must be an illusion, he couldn't help but rubbed his eyes with his hands, but just cut a bunch of green peppers, the eye that he rubbed with his hands instantly burst into tears, and it hurt so hot.
[Xue'er]: The father-son teaching scene is so touching, the son was moved to tears.
[God give me two buildings]: Hahaha, why do I think it was my son who cried in anger after being slapped in the face by his father.
Fortunately, Su Tianyuan can't see the live barrage now, otherwise, his tears would flow even more violently.
It's not moved, nor angry, it's just made me cry because of my own stupidity.
"Look, cutting vegetables is actually very simple."
With that said, Su Aobai returned the kitchen knife in his hand to his son.
"At the beginning, you don't need to be fast, you can take your time. After you master the skills and become proficient, the speed will naturally increase."
The helper aunt who used to help wash and chop vegetables is now helping Su Quangen at the stove, so he can also devote a little attention to his children and grandchildren.
Seeing the knife skills displayed by his son, the corners of Su Quangen's mouth almost reached his ears.
"That's right, Xiao Yuan, your dad is talented, we can't compare with your dad, so let's take our time according to our own strength."
He wanted to comfort his grandson, but under such a naked/naked comparison, Su Tianyuan wanted to cry even more.
Could it be that what his grandfather said is true, that his father is really a rare culinary genius once in a thousand years?
In this way, grandpa must like his father more, and it seems that there is no end in sight to catch up with his father's status in grandpa's mind.
When Xiaopang ate less than half of the first few dishes, the other dishes were also served one after another.
Miao Yinhua came in from the outside after serving the dishes.
"A kid who is doing live broadcasting like our son came to the store. He is chubby and quite edible. It looks like a blessing."
Miao Yinhua came in to share the news, but Su Aobai already knew about it through the barrage in the live broadcast room.
After hearing the old lady's comments on Xiaopang, the viewers who came over from Xiaopang's live broadcast room couldn't help leaving hahaha comments, and were going back to Xiaopang's live broadcast room to share what the old lady had just commented on him.
Blessing, this is probably a word that is highly praised in the minds of the elderly.
At this time, Xiaopang has already been captured by the few dishes served, and he doesn't care about interacting with the fans who came to share.
"Three delicacies from the ground! I am familiar with this dish. My mother often made it when I was at home. It should be a home-cooked dish that will appear in most people's homes, but it is because it is too common. I want to make it brilliant. , it’s even more difficult.”
As he said that, Xiaopang picked up the stewed eggplant with his chopsticks.
Eggplant is easy to absorb oil, so if it is not cooked well, it is easy to be greasy. Suquangen has a habit of making ground three delicacies, that is, to first coat the thickly sliced round eggplant with a thin layer of starch and fry it. , which is convenient for the eggplant to be shaped. When it is stir-fried later, the eggplant wrapped in a thin layer of batter is not easy to absorb oil, and it is more convenient to wrap the eggplant juice, which has a strong taste.
When it is about to come out of the pan, Su Quangen is used to sprinkle a pinch of five-spice powder or beef powder and stir-fry to add a flavor to the dishes that are already rich in sauce.
"Absolutely! This taste is amazing! I thought my mother was the most delicious cooker in the world. No restaurant can compare to my mother's craftsmanship. The pot in front of me is slightly different from my mother's usual method and seasoning, but it is equally delicious."
Xiaopang picked up four or five yuan in a row, his mouth was full, and there was still sauce overflowing from the corner of his mouth.
The remaining half bowl of rice had already been dried up in two or three mouthfuls with the fragrant ground three delicacies, and Xiao Pang quickly went to the big rice cooker for self-service to fill another full bowl.
This time, he covered the surface of the rice with a piece of soft rotten eggplant, and then poured half a spoonful of sauce from the dish on the rice with a spoon. The hot rice instantly absorbed the sauce.
Then he used chopsticks to pick up the rice and eggplant that were full of soup, opened his mouth, and stuffed it into his mouth. While chewing, his slightly swollen eyes narrowed into two crescents, with a happy expression on his face .
The audience behind the camera swallowed almost at the same time.
Isn't it just three delicacies from the ground? It's really so delicious?
When Su Tianyuan heard that there were Internet celebrities in the restaurant engaged in eating and broadcasting, he couldn't stay still. It happened that there were not many people ordering at this time, and the side dishes prepared before were enough, so he sneaked to the kitchen door to observe Watching the anchor Xiaopang's every move.
"If you have the opportunity to come to this store to check in, you must try this local delicacies."
[Gourmet expert]: I understand, I understand. When the anchor eats steamed hairtail, he suggests that we must try steamed hairtail if we check in at the store. When the anchor eats yellow chicken in soy sauce, he suggests that we must punch yellow chicken in soy sauce. When making stuffed tofu, it is suggested that we must clock in the Hakka stuffed tofu. Now that we have tasted the local delicacies, it is suggested that we must punch in the local delicacies. There are still some that are not suggested to clock in because they have not yet started eating.
[I'm arguing at the construction site]: To sum up, everything in this restaurant is delicious. Did the anchor really not charge money? dog head save life
Looking at these bullet screens, Xiaopang replied seriously.
"At least until now, I haven't stepped on a single dish. If you insist that I charge money to do things, then I can only pick a bone from an egg."
Xiaopang was not angry, and pointed to the few dishes he had already tasted.
"For example, the local delicacies, whether it is the heat or the seasoning, have reached the perfection in my mind, but I really don't agree with the knife skills. You look at the potato pieces, some are big and some are small. When the potatoes are already stewed, the middle of the big ones is still a little undercooked, but this does not affect the taste too much, because the potatoes themselves are already cooked, but the soup has not been able to seep into the inside because of the size of the potatoes. , when eating, you can use chopsticks to clip it in half, soak it in the soup and it will be fine."
The corners of Su Tianyuan's mouth were raised when he heard Xiaopang praise the delicious food, but when he saw Xiaopang pick up the few potato pieces with obvious differences in size, his mouth suddenly tightened.
Because these ingredients are all from his knife.
"Maybe it's because there are not enough people in the store, or it's not enough to help with kitchen knives. In fact, I suggest that the store can go online to buy the kind of machine specially used for peeling vegetables. It can be shredded, stripped, cubed or diced. Now the technology is very developed. This will save you some labor costs.”
Xiaopang said to his fans with a smile.
[Xue'er]: Hahaha, Xiaopang really knows how to eat and cook. These potato cubes were cut by the boss's grandson. It's not long since my little brother started learning how to cook, and he's still in the stage of practicing knife skills.
[Wherever there is delicious food, there is me]: Hahaha, little fat, that little brother who chops vegetables is peeping at you from behind the kitchen door, and the person in question heard you say bad things behind your back, so he asked you if you were afraid or embarrassed Awkward.
Xiaopang's gaze followed the prompt, and he happened to be looking at Su Tianyuan for a few seconds.
He is also a person who has seen big scenes, and when he saw it, he waved at Su Tianyuan calmly, showing a typical silly smile.
"Don't sow dissension, okay, he is a rich second generation who has two buildings to inherit, and I'm just a poor social animal waiting for your parents to reward you. Besides, does the young master need to rely on knife work for a living? Hey, people learn to cook just for fun!"
When Xiaopang and the fans in the live broadcast room made a few jokes and looked at it again, Su Tianyuan was no longer in that position.
He didn't take it seriously either, and continued to taste his food.
When Su Tianyuan returned to the chopping board again, his expression was obviously much more serious.
The whole person was tense, picked up the washed vegetables in the vegetable basket and began to cut them seriously.
He --------------/ Yi Yi y? Hua/ doesn't want to be a waste in the eyes of the public anymore.
*****
"During the daytime today, Lao Zhang and Lao Wang called the two of us to go on a trip, saying that we were going to visit all the four Buddhist mountains."
In the evening, Miao Yinhua chatted with the old man about what happened during the day.
"Lao Zhang and the others have visited a lot of places over the years, and they even showed me the photos they took before. I had a lot of fun."
After soaking his feet, Su Quangen was drying them with a foot cloth.
He could tell that the old woman's tone was envious, but his wife was a Buddhist, and there was a small room on the second floor dedicated to the Buddhist altar. On some important days, the old woman would become a vegetarian.
For her, going to the Four Great Buddha Mountains has a stronger appeal than going to ordinary places.
"Why don't you go with Lao Zhang and the others this time, we have a companion together, you don't have to worry too much about the things in the store, at worst, you can hire a temporary worker."
Su Quangen definitely couldn't go by himself. He thought it would be impossible without him as the chef, but his wife was different. She was responsible for ordering dishes, collecting money and doing some odd jobs.
"I just said it casually, and I didn't really want to go, it's so troublesome to go out to play, and I have to prepare luggage, it costs money, and I don't know if I can play well, forget it, I'll just stay at home .”
Miao Yinhua rejected her wife's proposal without even thinking about it.
"The three of you don't know how to take care of others. If I leave, can you play with confidence?"
Old man Su knows how to cook, and in other housework, Miao Yinhua pays more than her husband. She feels that she will be away for more than half a month, and the three of them must not be able to take care of themselves well.
In this way, she is patronizing and thinking about her family members, how can she let go and play.
Saying that, Miao Yinhua lost the desire to chat, turned over, turned off the bedside lamp on her side, and prepared to go to sleep.
Su Quangen knew that the old woman was right, so he didn't try to persuade her.
When he came back from the bathroom after pouring the footwashing water, the old lady was already snoring softly, apparently falling asleep.
When Su Quangen saw this, it was even more impossible to wake up his wife and discuss the topic with her. He lifted his quilt and was about to go to bed when he heard the noise from the kitchen downstairs.
It seems to be the sound of a chopping board. Who else will stay in the kitchen when it's time to order?
Su Quangen didn't wake up his sleeping wife, he lowered his footsteps and walked slowly downstairs.
The kitchen door was half open, and a faint light came out from the gap in the door. The closer the distance, the clearer the sound from the kitchen.
It was true that someone was chopping vegetables in the kitchen, and soon, Su Quangen heard a familiar exclamation from inside.
It's his precious grandson!
Su Quangen approached and opened the door, only to see a pot full of potatoes, cucumbers, and carrots in front of Su Tianyuan. He just exclaimed because he accidentally dropped the round potato and hit his leg up.
Su Tianyuan was also taken aback when he saw his grandfather pushing the door open, but then he became happy again.
He is so hardworking, grandpa will definitely praise him.
"Grandpa, did I disturb you? I can't sleep, so I'll come to the kitchen for a while."
Su Tianyuan said reservedly, he is a person who cares about face, but also a little vain, otherwise he would not be praised by his friends, and he would give them his heart and money like a silly roe deer.
Su Tianyuan also knew about his little problem, so he felt that if his grandfather could praise him at this time, he would definitely be more motivated to practice.
But Su Tianyuan couldn't say clearly that he wanted to be praised, what he wanted to hear was the sincere words from his grandfather.
I saw Su Quangen was stunned, looking at these vegetables prepared for tomorrow, most of them have been processed by his grandson at the moment, cucumbers, potatoes, radishes, all cut into shreds.
But these shredded vegetables are too thick and uneven.
Shreds are different from chunks. Generally, shredded dishes have certain requirements for knife skills. Otherwise, the difference in thickness is too large, which will affect the taste when chewing in the mouth.
Moreover, fried vegetables with shredded potatoes also pay attention to their appearance. Su Quangen would be ashamed to accept money from other people for frying a dish with shredded potatoes like this.
Heart hurts!
The old man quickly calculated the cost in his mind.
"Where is Xiaoyuan..."
When he spoke, Su Tianyuan was secretly excited.
Praise him, praise him!
Should I be humble, so that grandpa can feel his virtue of diligence and humility at the same time.
"How about...let's go to bed..."
Sleep well, sleep will not waste the ingredients, Su Quangen is thinking in his heart whether he should change the menu tomorrow, change the hot and sour potato shreds into potato cakes, and steam and grind these broken potatoes and carrots into puree , can be reused completely.
"Dad, you go upstairs to rest, I will accompany Xiaoyuan to practice knife skills."
Su Aobai did not know when he appeared behind the old man.
"ah?"
Su Quangen was startled by his son's sudden appearance at first. After straightening out his son's words, he subconsciously shifted his gaze to his grandson's depressed face.
Blame him!
I was preoccupied with thinking about the spoiled ingredients, but I forgot how amazing it is for my grandson to start working hard for the first time.
It may be that the image of the grandson in the old man's mind has not been separated from the idle kid before. When he saw the picture of him practicing knife skills, what he thought of was that the kid was playing again, and he was still playing with food.
The old man opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to explain it to the child.
"Dad, I'm here."
Su Aobai patted his father on the shoulder.
Seeing this, Su Quangen left the kitchen step by step, thinking in his heart, when this month is over, give his grandson a little more pocket money to coax him.
After the old man left, Su Aobai rolled up his sleeves and walked to the sink to wash his hands.
"Good job."
He glanced at the pile of shredded vegetables, and for the first time, he didn't hit him.
The corners of Su Tianyuan's mouth were still drooping downwards, but when he heard his father's words, he couldn't help but lift up a little.
"Stupid birds fly first. If you know how to work overtime and practice knife skills, it means that you are smarter than ordinary stupid birds."
The upward movement paused, Su Tianyuan's mouth puffed up, and he glared at his father who was on the sidelines.
He is a stupid bird, who is the man who gave birth to a stupid bird? Old stupid bird?
Obviously listening to the words made people angry, but Su Tianyuan couldn't be angry for more than three seconds, the corners of his mouth could not be stretched upwards, and the smile on his face became more and more obvious.
He didn't care, he just took it as his father praising him.
Since Su Aobai came to this world, the favorability degree that has been falling down has finally begun to climb.
"Want to learn how to chop vegetables with me?"
Su Aobai picked up the kitchen knife at the side and looked at his little stupid bird.
Su Tianyuan: "...Learn!"
Under the bright light, in the cramped and cramped kitchen, the father and son stood side by side.
Su Quangen returned to the bedroom. Hearing the sound from downstairs, he turned around and wanted to wake up his wife, but when he heard his wife's snoring, he raised his hand in the air and stopped. He turned around, Lying on the bed, he smiled inexplicably.
Tonight, he is sure to have a good night's sleep and a good dream.
