MTL - Chang’an Small Restaurant-Chapter 82 eat crab together
Shao Jie came to Chongxian Square Shenji Restaurant again.
Shen Shaoguang greeted him with a smile: "Shao Langjun is here. The pickled goods merchant you recommended sent a few jars of Cangzhou sugar crabs. Would you like to steam two and try?"
Shao Jie thought for a while, then waved his hand: "Forget it, I won't eat it. Since I opened a restaurant with the little lady, my waist has grown several inches. My mother used to think I was thin, this Huizi also said it was okay, it was just right. I'm just afraid that if I keep getting fat like this, I won't be able to marry a bride."
Shen Shaoguang looked at Shao Jie carefully, he seemed to be a little fatter, but not outrageous. The aesthetics of men in this dynasty inherited some of the legacy of Wei and Jin. Shao Jie is not the first to hang up. According to the latter's standard, it is just right now.
Shen Shaoguang comforted him unconcernedly: "Shao Langjun is far from Yu Zisong's belt ten circumferences, it's okay, it's okay."
Shao Jie tilted his head and ran on her: "I have something to ask, Lin Langjun has been eating Shenji's meal longer than me, how come he is not fat?"
Not fat genes'."
Although Shao Jie has never heard of chickens, he still understands, "You said that, born?"
Shen Shaoguang nodded heavily.
A Yuan walked from the side with a smile on her face: "I'll just say, it doesn't matter what you eat more or less, it's all given by Ye Niang!"
Shen Shaoguang: "..." I felt like shooting myself in the foot, and I had a premonition that Ah Yuan was going to relapse today.
Shao Jie laughed: "Silly maid! That's your little lady complimenting people, can't you hear it?"
A Yuan stopped and asked with a smile, "Ah? Who are you complimenting? Praising me?"
Shao Jie: “…”
A Yuan happily carried the box and left, Shen and Shao looked at each other silently, and laughed in unison.
Since he wanted to lose weight, Shen Shaoguang brought two cups of tea that could no longer be clear. There was no ginger, pepper, sugar, salt, and various dried and fresh fruits in the tea, and naturally there was no Sheep fat, hog meat, milk, cheese.
Shao Jie took a sip and frowned.
Shen Shaoguang smiled secretly in his heart, and asked him if he had found a new store for him.
Shao Jie nodded, took out a roll of paper from his sleeve, there were several storefronts on it, the address, size, price were noted, and a sketch was drawn.
Shen Shaoguang took it and looked at it.
Shao Jie is the real Monopoly player. After the first branch was stable, he kept on opening the second store and even the third store.
Shao Jie is not that outrageous, and there are many branches, centralized management and centralized purchase can save a lot of costs. The key is that the current capital reserves and profits can support this operation, so Shen Shaoguang will let him as.
Shen Shao visited the two and agreed to look back together.
This is the first time to steam sugar crab in the store, A Yuan brought a tray over, "Yu Saburo let Shao Langjun and the little lady try it, this sugar crab is better steamed in water, It's better to add wine and cinnamon and smoke it."
The crab Yu Sandu had already cut open, revealing the caramel-colored crab roe.
Shen Shaoguang looked at Shao Jie, Shao Jie gave up the cup of tea that he hadn't had two sips in all, "What's so important about steaming a crab? Probably should add wine and cinnamon to fumigate better. Right?" Shao Jie thinks, maybe the little lady is right, fat or thin depends on what the chicken is, and it's okay to eat more or less.
Shen Shaoguang asked him to eat first.
Shao Jie took a piece and bit the crab roe first, "Well, it's sweet, fragrant and fresh, is this steamed?"
A Yuan nodded.
Shao Jie finished eating the steamed one, then ate another, and tasted it carefully, "The one that is soaked in water is a bit sweeter, but has more crab smell, and added wine and cinnamon for fumigation. Yes, the sweetness is lighter and not fishy - I still love this steamed one, isn't it just like eating crabs? What does the little lady think?"
Shen Shaoguang was slowly picking the meat from the crab claws, and when he saw him ask, he smiled slyly: "Why do you need to choose this yourself? Let them have a competition. The wine shop is holding a 'crab competition' , let the diners vote, the winner, we will draw three lucky people from the voters, each will give a basket of six crabs and a jar of new rich wine."
Shao Jie: “…”
Shen Shaoguang continued: "This ten-day is the confrontation between the sugar crabs, the next ten-day is the sugar-crabs against the bad crabs, and the next ten-day is the crabs that have been marinated in sugar and wine. Live crab, you can also get a fried crab and a steamed crab later... Let's just get a crab month."
What else has Shao Jie to say? He sincerely praised Shen Shaoguang: "As far as the little lady's whimsical ideas are concerned, we will definitely be able to cover the entire Chang'an City with wine shops, and then open to Dongdu, Beidu, Hedong, Shannan and even Jiangnan."
This time, it was Shen Shaoguang who was speechless. It turns out that Shao Langjun has already spread our business map to the whole country in his mind?
Shen Shaoguang licked his lips, "Aren't you thinking of visiting a few in Hudi?"
Shao Jie knew she was funny, and cooperated with the authentic, "It's not impossible... Let these barbarians also taste our things, don't just use small knives to cut half-baked meat to eat."
Shen Shaoguang: "..." The sense of national superiority of the people of the Tang Dynasty is really everywhere.
"Langjun said that, our food is full of poetry and etiquette? Then if we open the store to Fanbanghudi, will it be regarded as education?"
Shao Jie: "...Little lady thinks too far."
Shen Shaoguang smiled and said: "The key, in this case, should the court give us some subsidies?"
Shao Jie and Shen Shaoguang laughed at the same time, what a good dream!
Shao Jie did what he said, and contacted several crab suppliers to ensure the supply, and both branches started the crab theme.
The poetry wall outside the store also changed.
A Yuan took the powder to paint the wall, and regretfully said with Shen Shaoguang, who was pondering the composition on the side, "The little lady took great pains to paint it, and it took only a few days to erase it. It's a pity..."
The inscription is also very suitable for the artistic conception of the painting: "Why do you think about the south of the Yangtze River".
A Yuan only thinks that this fish is vividly drawn, and has no feeling for "The Thought of Ulva Perch". Legs, I've been wiping it for several days, and I still dream about it." A Yuan swallowed.
The leg of lamb is also written on the work belt, and the colors are gorgeous. Shen Shaoguang even specially painted the sparks from the oil dripping on the leg of lamb. dripping sound. Some guests joked that they thought the mural was "sound and smelly".
Shen Shaoguang said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, go for the mutton and crab, just slowly dream."
A Yuan is reluctant to let go of the old, but looks forward to the new.
Lin Yan was busy for a few days, when he came to Shen Ji, Shen Ji's "crab war" was already in full swing.
Lin Yan looked at the crab on the poem wall outside and laughed, this painting of A Li is really "freehand".
This is nothing, after all, there are already the same huge and brightly colored chrysanthemum fish and lamb shank.
The difference from the previous issues is that there is a person next to the crab, only drawn with ink lines, not as tall as the crab's legs, wearing a robe, a robe with a single stroke, a very obvious with a beard, two polka-dot eyes, and a look of astonishment. The inscription next to it is "Strong Crab".
Li Taibai said, "Yanshan snowflakes are as big as a seat", and Ayi is "a crab is comparable to a house", Lin Yan walked into Shenji with a smile.
The lunch guests have dispersed, A Yuan is counting the "votes", Shen Shaoguang is drinking tea next to her, looking at her with a smile.
Seeing Lin Yan coming in, Shen Shaoguang said hello, "Lin Langjun—"
Lin Yan nodded, suddenly remembering that she was called "Yan Lang" that day, and I don't know when I can hear her call me like that again.
A Yuan said: "It's better to have more steamed sugar crabs in water. In the past few days, the steamed sugar crabs with wine and cinnamon have lost more than 30 votes."
Lin Yan asked with a smile, "Is this a 'crab race'?"
Shen Shaoguang blows the shot: "It's Lin Langjun, you can tell when you hear it, it's not a 'sai crab'."
Beautiful words! Seeing her smiling face, Lin Yan really can't wait...
Shen Shaoguang asked with a smile: "Langjun also come with two crabs? Do you want to eat our signature sugar crab this ten days, or steam two live?"
Lin Yan smiled and said, "Let's live."
Shen Shaoguang added: "Lang Jun can eat! For this kind of fresh food, in fact, steaming alive is the greatest respect for it - because it can best preserve its umami taste. Sugar crab dregs Most of the crabs are because the crabs are not easy to store and transport, and there is no way to think of it.”
Lin Yan completely made her laugh, and Shen Shaoguang also squinted and smiled at him.
Yu San, who was cleaning up the crabs, rolled his eyes, who blew the sugar crabs into the sky these few days? What about the sugar crabs eaten by Emperor Yang in the previous dynasty with the golden dragon and phoenix on it, called "Golden Dragon and Phoenix Crab"; what about the three tribute crabs Cangzhou sugar crab, Guangling sugar crab, Jiangling sugar crab, Cangzhou crab paste fat, Guangling crab roe Fresh, Gangneung sugar crab meat is tender... hehe! The little girl's mouth!
As long as Lin Yan comes, Shen Shaoguang will leave his work and sit with him.
Although it is fun to sit in front of beautiful women, big eyes and small eyes, but if you want to make beautiful people happy, you have to say something.
Shen Shaoguang was clever and told a joke to Lin Yan: "There used to be a monk, when the autumn wind came, and when the crab's feet were itchy, he also learned from ordinary people who bought crabs to eat."
Although I only heard the beginning, Lin Yan's lips already curled up.
Shen Shaoguang pursed his lips, your smile is not right, okay?
Lin Yan held back a smile, "Go on."
Shen Shaoguang picked up interest again and continued, "The crab scratched the wall of the pot with thorns. The little disciple who was burning the fire couldn't bear to hear it, so he even recited the scriptures. The monk felt that he should recite it too. What, I read 'Goodness, goodness, it's good to be familiar, good to be familiar...'"
Lin Yan smiled at her.
Shen Shaoguang can basically be sure that Lin Shaoyin has no entertainment skills. He is probably the kind of person who is wrong when listening to a play, or a little wrong when listening to cross talk... Forget it, beauty .
Lin Yan was about to say something, when the parlor brought the steamed crab, a **** vinegar saucer and wine.
Shen Shaoguang said with a smile, "You can't eat crabs without wine, and Langjun should drink a little."
Lin Yan smiled and nodded.
Shen Shaoguang made wine for him. First, slowly pour hot water into the pot for scalding wine, consider the time, touch the wall of the pot with your fingers, the temperature is suitable, pick up the wine pot, shake it slightly to make the wine in the pot evenly heated, and then use The cloth towel wiped the bottom of the pot and poured a cup for Lin Yan.
Looking at her elegant movements, Lin Yan remembered what happened when he and Li Xiang were drinking here last year. How could he have thought that the two would look like this?
Lin Yan cleaned his hands in the clean water brought from the hall, took a crab, lifted the lid, and slowly removed the meat and yellows from the small plate.
Ming Nu came over and sat at the table with a serious expression.
Shen Shaoguang ate it so cold and arrogant, broke off two crab legs, and plucked the meat out to feed it. He reasoned with it again: "This can't be eaten too much, it's cold, and it's not good for the stomach. The princess' cat is already ill, and it's a lesson from the past."
Lin Yan peels crabs, usually watching her tease cats.
Put the meat in the crab claws into the plate with crab claws, Lin Yan scoops some **** and vinegar over it with a small spoon, and pushes it to Shen Shaoguang: "Eat it while it's hot."
Shen Shaoguang looked at him and accepted his hospitality with a smile.
Lin Yan peeled the crabs for himself. While peeling, he asked nonchalantly, "Ali, did the eldest princess tell you something?"
The author has something to say:The story of the monk eating crabs is also a joke that I didn't know where to read when I was a child.
