Chapter 5: Dandan Noodles
"Young Master Qin, are you talking about being Bao's dandan noodles?" Yulan said in surprise.
Qin Shou nodded and said, "That's right, I have been practicing cooking in Guangzhou, the food capital, before. In addition, I am also from Sichuan, and I am quite familiar with cooking Dandan noodles. If I can solve the problem with cooking skills, as a chef, I can definitely challenge it."
After a brief surprise and a little dazed, Yulan was very excited to hold Qin Shou's hand tightly and said, "Is it really...really? If this is the case, if you need help, please be sure to say it. You can do whatever you want."
Dudu saw that Yulan was holding Qin Shou's hand, and although she was excited, she still felt uncomfortable and didn't say much.
Then Qin Shou came to the town and bought the essential ingredients for making Dandan noodles.
Generally speaking, the ingredients needed for Dandan noodles are pork belly, a little onion, ginger and minced garlic, chopped sprouts, small green vegetables, peanuts, and other seasonings.
Because Dandan noodles are a kind of cold dish, the ingredients are very particular and it is not enough to be careless.
For example, chili oil, pepper, etc.
Of course, flour is also required to make Dandan noodles. Hand-made Dandan noodles are the key to the most delicious authentic Dandan noodles.
Qin Shou had an extraordinary sense of smell. He just smelled the bowls and chopsticks that Wen Bao had used and knew the general flavor of his Dandan noodles.
Oh, by the way, Qin Shou and Zhu Qi both activated their super smell. This extraordinary ability comes in great use at this time.
Through the fragrance on the bowl, you can feel the taste and spicyness. Judging from the usage of Dandan, the boaters can gain strength after eating it, which shows that they have put a lot of effort into this.
Qin Shou quickly purchased enough ingredients from the vegetable market. He didn't stop when he returned to the kitchen, so he started to make it immediately.
"The ingredients are all ready, and then we start making Dandan noodles made by Mr. Bao."
Qin Shou prepared all the ingredients and said to Bai Rongrong beside him: "Rongrong, you have to carefully see how the master makes it. Dudu, come and help me."
"Okay, little... Master Qin!" Dudu stepped forward to help Qin Shou.
Compared to a year ago, Dudu is not a cooking novice who knows nothing. After experiencing so many things, she has become an excellent chef.
The cooking skills are not very high, but as a helper, there is absolutely no problem, otherwise it would not be so easy to help in Sichuan Juhu and Yangquan Restaurant.
Cut the scallions and ginger into minced meat, chop the almonds, pickled vegetables, and cut the pork leg into minced meat.
Bean paste, Shaoxing wine, and sweet noodle sauce start to stir-fry all these ingredients, and then put the kneaded and pulled noodles in a hot pot of water.
While cooking noodles, make toppings, spicy oil, soy sauce, and add sesame paste.
The cooked noodles do not need to be controlled by water. Before they have become sticky, they can form a ball in a colander and put it into the topping.
Sprinkle with minced meat and almonds, and then the most important peppercorns.
When it comes to this, a bowl of sweet and delicious dandan noodles is ready.
But he made four big bowls temporarily, and Qin Shou took the lead in putting one of them in front of Magnolia.
"I tried to restore the original taste based on the details of kitchen utensils and other things. The toppings were sinking underneath, stirring them well before eating." Qin Shou said to Yulan and others.
Then Dudu, Bai Rongrong and Magnolia all picked up one of the bowls, stirred them evenly and ate them.
Bai Rongrong was originally a foodie. After mixing evenly, she couldn't wait to stir up one of the chopsticks and put it into her mouth.
After chewing, he immediately exclaimed a delicious awe because the dandan noodles were very delicious.
"Ahhhhh~ It's so delicious, Master! The peppery hemp, the spicy soy sauce, the meat sauce made with pork, and the vigorous noodles are all wonderful combinations."
Bai Rongrong ate very carefully and stopped after eating two large chopsticks in a row.
"When I made the meat sauce, I added a lot of dried shrimps to it, which would make the taste better, and the boatman would be more physically energetic after eating it." Qin Shou said.
After tasting it, Dudu also praised it: "Little boss, it's really delicious. I think this Dandan noodles have caused me to emerge from my liver, heart, bones, and from the depths of my body, in addition to the power of pulling a boat."
"Haha, right? So how does the Dandan noodles I made from Magnolia Magnum are compared with Master Bao?" Qin Shou turned around and asked Magnum.
The reason I said this is because Qin Shou knew that what he did was definitely different from Master Bao.
Sure enough, after carefully savoring the magnolia, she opened her eyes and said, "It's indeed delicious, but it's not the same as what Mr. Bao made."
"Where is different?" Qin Shou asked further.
Magnolia thought carefully and said, "The noodles made by Bao Ye tasted more fragrant, and the peppercorns were more obvious. It is different from the dishes you cooked. Its spicy taste will be softer, which is completely different from the 'bold spicy' of Chongqing dishes."
