Datang Hotel: The Leisurely Life of a Chef Dad

Li Lizhi: Liu Xuan is a real man who speaks for justice and is upright and incorruptible.

Li Shu: He is not afraid of danger, and is brave and upright. He is wise and brave. He is an ideal husband.

Li Hui: Liu Xuan is upright and upright, fights for justice, and regards money as dirt.

"Just accept it, store owner." Li Hui lowered her head, "This is a little gift from me. If the Hu people come to the door..."

Before Li Hui finished speaking, Liu Xuan's indifferent and upright voice came: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

"I, Liu Xuan, will take responsibility for my own actions. Let them come!"

Hearing Liu Xuan's words, the eyes of the three sisters Li Lizhi were brighter than each other.

Chang Sun Chong followed behind and smiled sinisterly: "Let's see what you can pay..." ✼✩

Although the Hu merchants did not have a high status in Chang'an, they were not the kind of people who could be bullied. Moreover, most of the businessmen had someone above them. Even if they were just clerks in the government office, they had to do things for others after taking their money.

Liu Xuan smiled but said nothing.

…

In the Datang Restaurant, Li Lizhi asked excitedly: "Shopkeeper, what is the delicacy today?"

Liu Xuan smiled faintly: "Ladies and gentlemen, today we have added two new dishes, one is called twice-cooked pork, 300 coins per serving, and the other is called braised chicken, 300 coins per serving."

Li Lizhi smiled and looked at Chang Sun Chong: "Cousin, this is your first time here, you must try Mapo tofu and Dongpo pork."

"Shopkeeper, give me one serving of Mapo tofu, one serving of Dongpo pork, one serving of twice-cooked pork, one serving of braised chicken..."

After Li Lizhi finished speaking, she took out a purse from her sleeve, which seemed light, and handed it to Liu Xuan.

Liu Xuan nodded and slowly opened it, and inside was a gold leaf.

"Too much."

"It's too much, I'll continue eating next time."

Li Lizhi held her head, looking like a fangirl, staring at Liu Xuan's face that seemed to be carved out, full of spring breeze. People who didn't know would think that spring had come and everything was revived.

Chang Sun Chong couldn't sit still: "Shopkeeper, how much is this dish? You dare to charge a gold leaf?"

"Do you know that this gold leaf can buy all the glass you just broke?"

Liu Xuan smiled and said, "Customer, our Datang Restaurant is honest and fair. We always have clear prices. Mapo tofu is 50 wen, Dongpo pork is 200 wen, and twice-cooked pork and braised chicken are 300 wen each."

After hearing this, Chang Sun Chong's mouth twitched a few times.

"Hiss... This... is robbing money!"

"Three sisters, the name of Datang Restaurant sounds impressive, but it makes money with dirty intentions."

Chang Sun Chong smiled playfully: "Is there gold or silver in your dish?"

"There is no gold or silver in it, just some secret techniques of my own, the guests will know later."

Facing Chang Sun Chong, Liu Xuan really couldn't muster any interest: "The price of our Datang Restaurant is set by my eldest brother, and no one can tamper with it."

Chang Sun Chong narrowed his eyes and smiled contemptuously: "Your eldest brother, is he very powerful?"

"Let him come out to see me..."

"Such a powerful person is not allowed to exist in Chang'an! I said! Even the king of heaven can't protect him!"

"Tell him that I want to kill him!"

Liu Xuan smiled lightly, looking at Chang Sun Chong's arrogant look, his heart was relieved, right, this is the look of youthful vigor.

To fool someone, you need to lay the groundwork, too direct, he will definitely not believe it.

"It's a deal." Liu Xuan smiled.

Chang Sun Chong raised his lips, extremely confident: "A gentleman's word is as good as his bond!"

Turning to the back kitchen, Liu Xuan opened the system panel.

Two catties of tofu and two catties of pork cost twelve cents, and he bought a bunch of ingredients at random, which cost five cents.

He swiped through the system store and found the ingredients needed for the new dish.

Pork belly is also pork, five cents per catty, and one catty is enough for twice-cooked pork.

One catty of green pepper costs two cents, one catty of green garlic costs one cent, and one catty of red pepper costs two cents.

Then there are the auxiliary ingredients such as chicken essence, white sugar, and bean paste.

As for the braised chicken, Liu Xuan laughed directly.

When he was in college, every time he received a scholarship, he could only afford to eat braised chicken once. The school's braised chicken cost fifteen yuan per serving, which was the most expensive meal Liu Xuan had eaten in four years at school.

Three chicken legs of three yellow chickens cost nine coins, and mushrooms cost two coins per pound. Green and red peppers have been bought, and ingredients such as cooking wine are basically enough now.

Mapo tofu and Dongpo pork are familiar, and they are out of the pot in less than an incense stick.

Then there are two new dishes for today.

Put the pork belly in cold water, and add onion, ginger and cooking wine to remove the fishy smell.

After boiling, the blood is skimmed off and the meat fragrance is overflowing.

At this time, Liu Xuan's ruthless iron hand directly took the pork belly out of the pot. The kitchen knife in his hand seemed to have eyes. Even though no one was looking, each piece of meat was of uniform thickness and uniform.

Heat oil in a pot, and the sliced ​​pork belly was instantly thrown into the pot by Liu Xuan, and began to roll up reluctantly.

Just when he wanted to resist, his enthusiasm was extinguished by the ruthless bean paste.

Then the green and red peppers and green garlic were added in turn, and in an instant, the fragrance began to overflow in the fierce fire.

After a while, Liu Xuan started to season the food, then he took the big iron pot and turned it 360 degrees before finally frying it.

It's ready!

After putting the lid on, Liu Xuan started to prepare the braised chicken.

Braised chicken is a food that is suitable for all ages. The meat is soft and the juice is fragrant. Whether it is eaten with meat or with rice, it is invincible.

Cold water started a fire. Between Liu Xuan's endless kitchen knife and the indestructible chopping board, the chicken legs of the three yellow chicken were instantly cut into small pieces and thrown into the cold water.

When the scallion, ginger and cooking wine were used to remove the fishy smell.

Liu Xuan cut the mushrooms, green and red peppers into neat squares of different sizes.

Chinese cuisine is not only about being delicious, but also about being color, fragrant and delicious.

Good-looking and comfortable to look at, naturally whets the appetite.

Pleasant fragrance, naturally attracts people to taste.

Only when the taste is invincible can it become famous.

Of course, there are some exceptions, such as black garlic and stinky tofu, which are unconventional and specifically attract diners with special fetishes.

Heat oil in a pan, add rock sugar, and stir quickly. Soon, small bubbles will appear where the oil and sugar are fused together.

Add the chicken!

…

At this time, in the main hall, Li Shu had gone out without knowing when.

Li Lizhi was playing with Yaya.

"Big sister, are you hungry? I see your saliva."

Li Lizhi was not hungry, but there seemed to be a fragrance in the kitchen that she had never smelled before, which was slowly wafting out and seducing people.

"Yaya, aren't you hungry?"

Yaya lowered her head and scratched her hands: "Yaya is hungry too, but Aye said that if you eat too much, the big bad wolf will come out of your stomach..."

As soon as these words came out, Chang Sunchong covered his stomach and laughed: "Where is the big bad wolf in this world."

"Children are still easy to deceive. Come on, tell me where there is one, let me see it?"

Yaya opened her eyes wide, looked at Chang Sunchong, and sighed heavily. She was a child with a childish voice.

"Aye said that only people with big eyes can see the big bad wolf. How can you see it if you don't open your eyes?"

"Can you open your eyes..."
