Chapter 248 The Most Authentic Method of Mapo Tofu!

Mapo tofu is a dish produced in the early 20th century. It was created by Liu Shi, the owner of a small restaurant in Chengdu. Because Liu has pockmarks on her face, she is called Chen Mapo, so the roasted tofu she created is called "Chen Mapo". "Chen Mapo Tofu" gradually evolved into Mapo Tofu.

Mapo tofu is a vegetarian dish in many people's minds, but in fact the original way of this dish is to put beef.

Mapo tofu is mainly spicy. The taste of numbness comes from pepper, and the taste of spicy comes from chili. Feast, but as far as Ye Chui is concerned, this dish is definitely qualified to be included in the Man-Han Banquet, and it is not fading compared with the famous Seven Grades of Tofu in the Man-Han Banquet.

The characteristics of this dish are not only hot and spicy, but also "hot, fragrant, crisp, tender, fresh, and alive". With the addition of spicy and spicy, these eight flavors are indispensable to eat authentic Mapo tofu. The crispy refers to the crispy stuffed beef.

When making this dish, beef mince is used as the ingredient. After cooking, the beef becomes golden in color, the red crisp is not hard, and the grains are clear. It is crispy in the mouth and melts in the mouth.

In this world, because of the vegetarian movement, no beef is added to making mapo tofu. Although beef only occupies a very small part of the whole dish, the crispy taste it brings is indispensable. The addition of beef sublimates the taste of mapo tofu in this world.

Lin Zhengdao's eyes lit up when he saw the mapo tofu served by Su Xin, and he couldn't wait to take a bite, because he had eaten Ye Chui's dish before - Ye Chui made it for Lafayette at the time , At that time, Lafayette ate more because it was so delicious.

The vegetarian movement has made animals poisonous for 80 years, and the authentic method of mapo tofu has been lost. Lin Zhengdao called Ye Chui's mapo tofu a rare delicacy once in a hundred years, which is worthy of the name.

Lin Zhengdao's three confidants, Xiao Zhang, Xiao Liu, and Xiao Chen, heard Lin Zhengdao's praise of this dish, naturally they all became very curious, and hurriedly took a bite to eat. They have all eaten tofu before, but Ye Chui's dish completely brought them a new sense, and the three of them couldn't help but have a look of "this dish is really delicious" on their faces.

As subordinates, they naturally don't mind flattering the boss occasionally, but the surprise at this moment is worthy of the name.

"This mapo tofu seems to be different from the ones I have eaten before. Is it a new method?"

"The taste is indeed much better than the ones I ate before. It seems that there is beef in it?"

"This dish looks greasy, but it feels very fresh in the mouth. It's really delicious."

The three praised in a hurry.

"Authentic mapo tofu is not made this way at all. This dish looks like it was made randomly. How can it be delicious!" Lu Bing was anxious when he saw this, and couldn't help but blame him, "There are still Beef? Ha, it’s the first time I’ve heard that you need to put beef in to make Mapo Tofu…”

"Master Lu!" Lin Zhengdao's face was already a little angry, "Do I still need you to tell whether the food is delicious?"

Lu Bing was slightly startled, and hurriedly said: "Of course not, Mr. Lin, you have dinner..."

Lin Zhengdao snorted lightly, his expression softened slightly, then he thought of something, looked at Lu Bing and said, "You said, this dish was made by a young man?"

"That's right." Lu Bing thought that Lin Zhengdao was dissatisfied with this matter, so he hurriedly continued, "I'm only seventeen or eighteen years old, and I came to the hotel yesterday, and I brought my girlfriend... Where did it become?"

Hearing Lu Bing's words, Lin Zhengdao's face was slightly stunned. This kind of mapo tofu, a young man, with a girlfriend... Lin Zhengdao suddenly understood something, and smiled wryly: "This little bastard... …Ah!"

Lu Bing didn't understand Lin Zhengdao's reaction, and looked at Lin Zhengdao strangely.

"Boss, what's the matter?" Xiao Zhang next to him asked strangely.

"You guys are lucky today." Lin Zhengdao said with a somewhat mysterious smile, "Look forward to the delicious food you will eat later, I guarantee you will not be disappointed."

Lin Zhengdao's reaction made Lu Bing's expression ugly. He felt that Lin Zhengdao's words were aimed at him deliberately. Just now he accused Hong Lou's current chef of being a young boy with poor cooking skills, but Lin Zhengdao said this dish It’s delicious and delicious—this is actually Lu Bing’s overthinking. If someone like Lin Zhengdao likes it, he likes it, and if he doesn’t like it, he doesn’t like it. If he hates Lu Bing, just say it. Use this as an excuse to attack Lu Bing?

For Lin Zhengdao, Lu Bing was just a small person, the kind he didn't need to care about at all.

When a mapo tofu was about to be finished, the next dishes were brought up one after another - scrambled eggs with bitter gourd, white sliced ​​lotus root, tiger white pepper...

Lin Zhengdao became more and more sure that Ye Chui was cooking below. Although he is not a gourmet, the food is delicious and unpalatable. This difference can still be tasted. He has already seen Ye Chui's cooking skills. The simple dishes are here. His hands can also exude amazing charm, these dishes are definitely Ye Chui's works.

At the same time, Lin Zhengdao quietly took a look at Lu Bing, who was completely left aside by him.

Lu Bing looked at Lin Zhengdao's delicious food, and stood aside in embarrassment and walked away. When he met Lin Zhengdao's eyes, Lu Bing immediately said apologetically: "Boss Lin, since you are eating, Then I won't bother..."

"Hehe, why don't you just wait here when we meet, I'll finish eating soon." Lin Zhengdao said with a smile.

He didn't know how Ye Chui and Lin Wei offended this Lu Bing and let Lu Bing gossip like that just now, but since he was hit by this matter, he naturally wanted to help Ye Chui and Lin Wei.

"This..." Lu Bing couldn't guess Lin Zhengdao's plan, so he nodded and said, "That's fine."

The dishes were served one after another, and Lin Zhengdao and his three subordinates ate very happily. When Lin Zhengdao told the three confidants that they had taken something to eat, the three still didn't understand, but now they fully understand. Why did the boss say that.

Although these dishes are simple dishes, the taste in the mouth is different, which makes people have endless tastes.

They chose to eat in Honglou, originally to discuss some important matters, but now it seems that they have completely forgotten the important matters.

The dishes were served one by one, and soon came the last dish, which was also the simplest dish, tomato scrambled eggs.

In the kitchen.

Su Xin saw Ye Chui pour the red and yellow tomato scrambled eggs into the plate, and was about to serve the dish immediately, but Lin Wei picked up the plate first: "Sister Su, let me serve this dish. "

"Oh, okay." Su Xin nodded.

Ye Chui went to wash his hands, wiped his hands with a towel, and took off his apron: "I'll go up with you."

When the two left the kitchen, Pan Qingguo and the others were very interested in the relationship between Lin Wei and Ye Chui and Lin Zhengdao, and hurriedly followed, wanting to go up to watch the excitement.

All the way to the third floor.

Yu Yan stood outside the box, already lit a cigarette again, and was looking around vigilantly. When he saw the figures of Ye Chui and Lin Wei, he was stunned and rubbed his eyes involuntarily. The girl who walked in the front was indeed Lin Wei, and the cigarette butt in the mouth of this simple and honest man fell to the ground directly: "Wei Wei!?"

"Hey, hello Brother Yu." Lin Wei greeted with a bit of slyness.

Yu Yan stomped out the cigarette butts on the ground, thought for a while, then picked them up and threw them into his pocket. His eyes scanned Lin Wei and Ye Chui's faces: "You...why are you two here?"

"I'll deliver food to Dad." Lin Wei shook the plate in her hand triumphantly and said with a smile.

Yu Yan: "..."

Not to mention that Yu Yan is a bit petrified here, Pan Qingguo and others who came with him are also petrified: Dad?

Ye Chui smiled wryly, nodded to Yu Yan as a greeting, and went to push the door of the box open, while Lin Wei tried her best to put on a serious expression and walked in with the tray.

In the private room, Lin Zhengdao was eating a bowl of rice, which was extraordinarily sweet. He didn't even look at someone coming in, thinking it was the waiter delivering the food, but he saw the plate of tomato scrambled eggs placed in front of him, and said in a crisp voice : "Sir, your tomato scrambled eggs."

"Thank you..." Lin Zhengdao said in his mouth, he was stunned for a while, then turned to look at the waiter beside him, the expression on his face was quite wonderful for a moment, "Weiwei... what are you doing?"

"Hey, isn't it surprising?" Lin Wei said with a mischievous smile.

Lu Bing still didn't understand what was going on, but when he saw Ye Chui, his face subconsciously showed a bit of disgust, and he didn't seriously think about why Ye Chui and Lin Wei came here, so he immediately spoke seriously. Ye Chui said, "What are you doing here? Do you know the rules? What do you think is the third-floor box in Honglou? You can come whenever you want? Can you afford to disturb the guests' meals?"

Ye Chui glanced at Lu Bing with the eyes of an idiot, with a faint smile on his face, but he didn't say anything to Lu Bing, but smiled at Lin Zhengdao and said, "Hello, Uncle."

Lin Wei also hugged Lin Zhengdao's shoulders, and said coquettishly, "Father, Ye Chui and I came to Yanjing to see you. Are you very moved?"

Lin Zhengdao gave his daughter a blank look, and said with some helplessness: "You two are really messing around, Ye Chui, it's fine if Weiwei wants to mess around, why is your boyfriend following her around?"

"This... this is..." The expression on Lu Bing's face was already stiff, he looked at Lin Zhengdao and then at Ye Chui, the amount of information seemed to be too much for a moment, his head was about to short-circuit... (~^~ )
