c767 Start making Buddha Jumps Over the Wall! Lam Kee Gourmet Staff Meal
“Xubao, is it troublesome for Buddha to jump over the wall?”
On the way home from get off work, Shen Jiayue heard Lin Xu talk about wanting to be a Buddha and jump over the wall, and asked curiously.
Although she doesn’t know how to make this Chinese dish, she has some idea of what it takes seven days and seven nights, and what kind of preparation can take up to half a month.
In short, it is cumbersome and troublesome, and not many chefs are willing to try it.
Lin Xu said:
“There is trouble, but it is not as exaggerated as the rumors say. The quality of this dish is not only determined by the time cost, but also the materials. As long as the ingredients are enough, even if it is made into a big pot, the taste will not be much different. ”
The cost of Buddha Jumping Over the Wall is very high, especially the standard version of Golden Soup Buddha Jumping Over the Wall. The cost of compound broth alone is extremely high.
Except for the Golden Soup Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, the cost of other versions of Buddha Jumping Over the Wall is relatively low.
For example, the milk soup Buddha Tiaoqiang that does not require boiling compound broth, the clear soup Buddha Tiaoqiang with the same soup as boiled cabbage, the simple version Buddha Tiaoqiang commonly used in hotels, the home version Buddha Tiaoqiang, etc.
Shen Jiayue became interested and asked excitedly:
“Xubao, do you think I can learn it?”
“You? Want to imitate Buddhism and jump over the wall?”
Lin Xu’s expression was a little tangled. He wanted to tell the truth, but he was afraid that the good baby would be unhappy, so he said tactfully:
“People who have just learned to walk are not suitable for running marathons…”
Shen Jiayue pouted:
“Then you can simplify it. Can I make those simplified versions, home versions, etc.?”
“It’s still a bit complicated for you, let me think about it…”
Lin Xu was thinking about it while driving. When he reached the traffic light intersection, he said:
“Many big cities in the country have group hotels that cater to tour groups. They serve well-prepared meals. This kind of hotel offers a super cheap Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. I think this kind of hotel is more suitable for you.”
Shen Jiayue:? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
The kind of Buddha jumping over the wall you are talking about, can you still call it Buddha jumping over the wall?
I’m afraid he jumped over the wall and went back overnight, right?
The photos I took will make netizens envy them, not make them laugh at them. If you don’t want to be taught, just say so and I will just look up the tutorials online.
Humph, what’s so great about it.
Seeing the girl’s dissatisfied expression, Lin Xu couldn’t help but say:
“Don’t think that Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is too high to reach. Looking at it from another angle, it is just a spicy bone soup without red oil chili. The pre-processed ingredients are re-simmered in stock and eaten with the soup. This is It’s just Malatang, but the ingredients are a bit more high-end.”
“Really? But let’s see what you do first and then decide whether to learn or not.”
If it’s too different from the original version, then we won’t shoot it. But if the simplified version of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall looks good, then what are you waiting for? Just start shooting it to gain popularity!
Back home, Lin Xu sat in front of the computer and first wrote out the ingredients for making Buddha Jump Over the Wall.
This kind of dish made with multiple ingredients is very difficult to prepare. The pre-processing and cooking order of various ingredients are different, so you need to write it down clearly first to avoid making mistakes when you start tomorrow.
And writing it like this can also allow the chefs in the kitchen to see how the golden soup Buddha jumps over the wall.
Shen Jiayue was sitting next to her and saw Lin Xu typing the words “Buddha jumps over the wall” in the document, and asked curiously:
“Why is it called golden soup? Is it the abalone juice in Cantonese cuisine?”
Abalone juice is a golden viscous soup that is formed by repeatedly boiling a variety of colloid-rich ingredients and then coloring and boiling them. When making dishes such as abalone juice with goose feet and abalone juice with ginseng, Lin Xu Have done it before.
The preparation of golden soup is somewhat similar to that of abalone juice, but the difference in process is also obvious.
He said to Shen Jiayue:
“Golden soup is considered to be the top of the pyramid in soup stock. It boils a variety of colloid-rich ingredients in mineral water to make a milky white soup. The milk soup is made into a clear soup by sweeping the soup, and then added into the clear soup. Rice wine, seasonings, and various precious ingredients are re-boiled, and the cooked soup appears golden, so it is called golden soup, and in some places it is also called top soup.”
Shen Jiayue looked confused when she heard:
“Isn’t this too troublesome? I always thought that boiled cabbage soup was high-end enough, but I didn’t expect that in Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, it’s only a half-finished product.”
Buddha Jumps Over the Wall can be regarded as a culmination of Chinese food. The entire cooking process requires the use of multiple cooking methods such as blanching, blanching, frying, baking, deep-frying, steaming, stir-frying, stewing, stewing, boiling, simmering, and boiling.
With such a tedious production process, coupled with nearly twenty kinds of high-end ingredients, the dishes cooked can really make monks want to jump to the wall and return to secular life.
He wrote step by step, and Shen Jiayue kept asking.
The first step of Buddha Jumping Over the Wall to make soup stock uses ingredients with bones, such as elbows, hens, ducks, keels, crucian carp, ribs, pig’s trotters, chicken feet and other ingredients. The soup cooked in this way is not only rich in colloids, but also It also has the unique rich flavor of bone broth.
When it is boiled into a clear soup and then boiled, soft ingredients rich in gum such as pork belly, ham, and tendons are used.
In addition, for the first time of cooking, the fire can be slightly higher to boil out the collagen in the ingredients as much as possible through the boiling of the soup.
For the second time of cooking, you have to simmer it over low heat so that it will be a golden soup.
Shen Jiayue was originally very interested and planned to steal a lesson and try it in private. But after hearing this, she found that the difficulty of light soup was beyond imagination, so she completely gave up the idea of jumping over the wall.
Alas, I am really just a pretty greedy girl who only knows how to eat and wait to die.
Lin Xu was still writing notes:
“When cooking the soup for the second time, add a large amount of rice wine to the soup and light it first. After the alcohol has completely evaporated, cover it with dried lotus leaves and simmer.”
Shen Jiayue asked curiously:
“Xubao, how much do you think a Buddha jumping over the wall like this could be sold for?”
“This cannot be measured in terms of money. Not only are the ingredients expensive, but the process is also complicated. Anyway, if it costs 10,000 yuan a portion, I won’t bother.”
When many people consider the price of a dish, they only calculate the cost of the ingredients and ignore the cost of the chef’s time.
Take Lin Xu as an example. The time it takes to make a serving of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is enough for him to cook countless dishes and make countless bowls of noodles in the kitchen. Based on this calculation, the price of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is indeed higher.
After all, he can’t make less money just because he becomes a Buddha and jumps over the wall. In that case, he will still be busy.
After writing the entire cooking process, Lin Xu suddenly remembered that in his hometown in Yinzhou, during the snack lottery, Dundun helped him get the Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, but was forcibly replaced by salted duck by the system.
Although the salted duck is also a first-class dish, it is still incomparable to Buddha Jumping Over the Wall. It can also be seen that the system has been trying to delay the time for itself to obtain high-end dishes.
But this time when the urban cuisine was drawn, Dundun won Fuzhou in the first place, and he even helped himself get Buddha Jumping over the Wall openly.
The system didn’t let out a single fart during the entire process.
Could it be that Dundun’s authority has increased and he can completely suppress the system?
The system is like a game, trying to extend the player’s playing time as much as possible, and Dundun is like a rebellious GM, taking advantage of the game’s own loopholes to continuously provide the best props and skills…
From Lin Xu’s point of view, it is naturally a very happy thing, but the system will most likely regard this as a bad incident of Comrade Deep Sea’s rebellion against the revolution, right?
I don’t know if there is a controller behind the system. If there is, I hope I won’t be so angry that Dundun’s series of rebellious behaviors make me vomit blood.
After finishing the process, Lin Xu played games for a while and prepared a midnight snack for Dundun before washing up and going to bed.
The next morning, he didn’t prepare breakfast, so he got up with Shen Jiayue and took Dundun to the store to eat, while making the soup for Buddha Jumping Over the Wall.
When he arrived at the store, Zhu Yonggang had made breakfast.
Hot dry noodles, rice wine soup, fried noodle nests, soda buns, glutinous rice chicken, soup noodles, fried dough sticks, fried sesame balls, three kinds of fresh bean curds… Shen Jia was overwhelmed by all kinds of snacks:
“Wow, is today the Wuhan Food Festival?”
Was this two weeks of intensive cultivation in the Ginkgo Garden? As soon as I returned to the store, I made so many authentic Wuhan snacks.
Zhu Yong smiled and said:
“I feel a little homesick. While I was on duty this morning, I specially made these snacks so that everyone can taste the delicacies of our hometown.”
Shen Jiayue pointed her cell phone at these snacks and took a short video and posted it to her personal feed:
“There will be a Wuhan-themed employee breakfast, and there will be themed breakfasts in specific places in two days, so that employees can eat delicious food from all over the world without leaving home.”
As soon as this was posted, netizens who had not even had time to eat breakfast left messages in the comment area:
“I just want to know when Linji will recruit programming staff.”
“I am proficient in civil engineering. I just took the national second-level construction engineer certificate last year… Does Lin Ji have a corresponding major?”
“Are there any jobs suitable for an artist? I can draw comic-style sketches for customers while they are eating. It will definitely help the business. Please hire me quickly [呲呲]”
“Mama Mia, you are so kind to your employees, aren’t you afraid that other bosses will join forces to report you?”
“Boss Lin and his wife are really traitors among the capitalist community, but if there are more such traitors, the life of us lower-class social animals will be much better.”
“Eating is not allowed in the company. I am eating pancakes downstairs in the company under the surprised eyes of passers-by. When I saw the post posted by the boss lady, I suddenly wanted to cry.”
“If it weren’t for the professional mismatch, I would really like to switch jobs to Lin Kee.”
“In a word, if you are in the catering industry, please remember to apply for a job at Linji. If you are accepted, you will enjoy the highest treatment in the industry. Even if you do not succeed in the interview, HR will issue a meal coupon, which you can use to go to the store. Free meal.”
“Last time I applied for a marketing job, I didn’t get the interview. Before I left, the HR gave me a meal coupon and asked me to go to the store to have a meal before going back, so as not to make the trip in vain. I didn’t eat the meal, but solemnly I kept this meal ticket because it made me feel a long-lost respect [photo] [photo].”
“…”
Shen Jiayue saw the comments from netizens, looked at Lin Xu and asked curiously:
“Why do we give out meal coupons if we fail in the interview in our store?”
“Here, I came all the way for an interview, and I asked you to buy me a meal… If you can get into the interview, your resume must be excellent, so just think of it as a good relationship.”
After Lin Xu finished speaking, he filled a bowl of soup noodles and started eating them with fried dough sticks.
Paste soup noodles is a classic Wuhan delicacy. It is not difficult to make. Boil the small fish and shrimps in the pot the night in advance until it becomes a paste, and then cook the rice noodles with the paste.
The noodle soup made in this way is naturally very delicious, especially when eaten with fried dough sticks. When the crispy and soft fried dough sticks are soaked in the delicious soup, the texture is really incredible.
Shen Jiayue served some hot dry noodles, put diced radish, mustard mustard, pickled beans and other ingredients, and then poured two small spoons of chili oil on it.
While they were busy, Zeng Xiaoqi and Chen Yuanyuan also came to have breakfast.
“Wow, today’s breakfast is really tempting. Should I eat more or less?”
Zeng Xiaoqi was in a dilemma, because when filming the state banquet, she could taste some. Although these snacks were not comparable to the state banquet, they were super tempting at the moment, and each item made her mouth water.
In the end, she followed her heart and served some hot dry noodles, along with a piece of noodle nest, a piece of glutinous rice chicken, and a small bowl of rice wine and egg soup.
The glutinous rice chicken in Wuhan is different from other places. The glutinous rice chicken here is fried, a typical high-carb + high-fat combination, and a great tool for gaining weight.
But despite gaining weight, Zeng Xiaoqi couldn’t hold back. She picked up a piece of fried and crispy glutinous rice chicken and took a bite. The crispy texture directly whetted her appetite.
“Boss Lin, what are your plans today? Do you want to go to the state banquet filming site? Guo Xinghai and Huo Yifan are both there.”
Lin Xu said:
“I don’t have time today. Sister Yan said two days ago that when my family comes, we can have a meal together like jumping over the wall. I have to start preparing today… Then Sister Xiaoqi will also eat together.”
Chen Yuanyuan, who was eating hot dry noodles in the noodle nest, opened her mouth:
“No, brother, you can even jump over the wall?”
“Understand a little bit.”
“Cai Sanmu told me yesterday that his grandpa likes to eat Buddha and jump over the wall. Unfortunately, there are too few restaurants here in the capital, and the few that do it are not successful… I didn’t expect you to do it, then you can earn his money later. Money.”
After she finished speaking, she began to figure out how much it would be appropriate to charge for a meal.
From this point of view, Sister Yuanyuan and Cai Sen are really well matched. They both have a noble heart of sacrificing their own family for everyone, and they are not merciless at all when picking up their own wool.
Lin Xu said:
“Let’s invite him to have a taste while we’re eating. The Cai family has a very strong relationship, so we need to build a good relationship. The second uncle will happen to meet the Cai family at that time.”
“Just look at the arrangements, I don’t care.”
The steely straight girl Chen Yuanyuan is not interested in these things. All her focus now is her career.
The store on Qianmen Street has already started to be renovated. It can be regarded as an image experience store. In addition, several branches will be opened nearby to announce that Qiang Sheng Jian has left Haidian and begun to encroach on the entire capital.
Lin Xu didn’t have much involvement in this matter. Anyway, Dou Wenjing was responsible for the general direction and Yuanyuan was responsible for the specific implementation. The two of them cooperated very well, so there was no need to worry about it.
Not long after, Dou Wenjing, Shu Yun, Chen Yan and others also came.
Chen Yan didn’t plan to get up early. After all, she got up early yesterday to eat fried dough and wanted to sleep more today.
But after seeing Shen Jiayue’s news, she immediately gave up the idea of going back to sleep, and showed off a wave of breakfast in the store under the guise that the fetus must not be deprived of nutrition.
Lin Xu ate a bowl of soup noodles, two fried dough sticks, and two pieces of three-fresh tofu skin and glutinous rice chicken. Then he washed his hands and went to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients for the soup.
In fact, the car driver has been notified to prepare these.
Ingredients for soup such as elbows, ribs, keels, tube bones, hens, ducks, pig’s trotters, chicken feet, crucian carp, etc. have been prepared.
Lin Xu cut off the heads and buttocks of hens and ducks, tore out the lymph nodes in their necks, and chopped them into large pieces.
Cut the ribs and keel into large pieces, split the pig’s trotters, cut the elbows, clean the chicken feet, remove the gills, scales and internal organs of the crucian carp, and clean the black membrane in the abdominal cavity.
After the preparation work is completed, the preliminary processing begins.
First, blanch chicken feet, duck meat, and pig’s trotters, three odorous ingredients, separately to remove the odor.
Then heat the oil in a pan, put the chicken and duck pieces in the pan and fry them with lard. Fry out the moisture in the meat, take it out and put it in a large colander to control the oil.
Without oil in the pot, put the pig’s trotters in and bake until the surface is golden brown, then scoop it out. This will make it easier for the gelatin in the pig’s trotters to come out.
The crucian carp is fried in lard until golden brown, making it easy to make milk soup.
After the fish is fried, heat the oil in a pan, put the ribs, chicken feet and elbows into the pan and fry until golden brown.
Finally, fly the keel and tube bones into the water to remove the blood foam.
When everything was ready, Lin Xu took an oversized jar, cleaned it, and put a layer of bamboo mesh on the bottom.
Place the fried pork knuckles, keel bones and tubular bones that have flown over the water into the pad, then add the ribs, pig trotters, chicken and duck pieces, and finally add the fried chicken feet.
“These big elbows and big pots full of meat are just for making soup?”
Shen Jiayue on the side looked shocked. She was just doing some minor basic work. She didn’t expect that so many ingredients would be consumed.
Lin Xu smiled and said:
“The more ingredients consumed, the more valuable the dish is. However, the meat is not really wasted. You can cut the meat off later, let it cool, and add some boiled pig skin to make aspic.”
No matter now or in the past, although the recipes will say to throw away the leftovers of the soup, in fact, the chefs will find a way to eat it.
For example, the minced meat used for soup is usually added with lard in the back kitchen to make steamed buns for the employees to eat.
There are many ways to handle large pieces of meat like elbow, and no chef would be willing to throw it away.
“That’s it. I thought chefs were very wasteful.”
Shen Jiayue looked at the ingredients put into the jar and asked curiously:
“No ham?”
“This step is to make the milk soup. You don’t need to add ham for seasoning. You can add it when you cook it for the second time, so that the umami flavor will be stronger.”
Lin Xu added mineral water to the jar, brought it to a boil over high heat, carefully skimmed off the foam and boiled fat, then sealed it with soaked dried lotus leaves and placed it on the stove to simmer over low heat.
Normally, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall needs to be simmered over charcoal fire.
However, burning charcoal for a long time is too dangerous and can easily cause carbon monoxide poisoning, so it is better to use a stove, which can better control the firepower.
As the soup simmered, Lin Xu began to soak sea cucumber, abalone, shark’s fin, isinglass, fish lips, scallops, tendons and other dried products. These are not only the most important part of the whole dish, but also need to be soaked after they are properly soaked. After being cooked in different ways, it can then be put into a pot and simmered in golden soup.
This is a tedious process that can never be completed in a day or two.
So Lin Xu is ready for a protracted war…
