The kitchen in Xiaotang Village is nearly twice as big as the kitchens in other rooms. The younger generation often stays with the old lady for dinner. Those who add dishes and make soup do not have to go around to the big kitchen. The kitchen in their own yard has been solved.

It is now the hour of Hai, and the kitchens have already rested. Only one or two nighttime people are left to prepare for the masters to order late-night snacks.

With the old lady's order, Madam Fan, the director of the kitchen, was the first to come to the kitchen of Xiaotang Village to wait for the call. Immediately, all the people from all walks of life in the Tang family gathered in the kitchen.

The round potatoes selected in a small basket were ready. Madam Fan cleared her throat and arranged the work as the fifth girl said just now: "Wash all the potatoes, Qiaogaru, pick ten big ones in the trunk and steamed them! Qiaoguo, cook some peas for use, cut some ham and milk tofu cubes! Qiaoyuan, prepare to add onion, ginger, garlic, sauce, vinegar and soy sauce, and then help the fifth girl! Chunfenjia, you took a few girls to peel the remaining potatoes carefully

Son, first choose three and cut them into elephant eye pieces, simmer them in beef soup on a low heat. Is the big knife Qin coming? Oh, today it’s coming soon. If you eat a glass of wine, I will only use two knife Li in the future! Today, I was ordered by the old lady, so I brought you guys into the back house. Be honest with you and your hands and feet! Cut all the peeled potatoes into shreds, how thin is it? Cut them with silk incense! After cutting, put in cold boiled water for later use!”

Xiaoxiao stood aside and felt the tension of kitchen work for the first time. She used to try having fun in the small kitchen in Zhuli Pavilion like a house.

"Have you arrived at the Rui Niang?" Madam Fan's loud voice rang again: "Hurry up, put steamed buns and fragrant white sauce on the stove and set aside for later use!"

Steamed buns are homemade bread crumbs; fragrant white sauce is salad dressing.

Xiaoxiao has already put on an apron. One stick of incense is only half an hour, which is completely enough.

The big knife Qin's knife is very skillful and fast. A pot of thin and well-proportioned potato shreds soaked in cold boiled water is already placed in front of him.

"Take half of it and blanch it in water." Xiaoxiao said, and immediately a cook started to do it with ease.

Xiaoxiao looked at the remaining half of the shredded potatoes, and the quantity was just about to be fried. At this moment, the fire in the stove had already been strong, so she just waited to put the pot and cooked. Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, vinegar and shredded potatoes. The dish he used to cook the most often was also a home-cooked dish that grandma taught her.

"Qiaolou," Xiaoxiao looked at the rows of ingredients and ingredients next to the wok, intending to confirm again.

Qiaoou didn't expect that the girl would remember her name all at once and quickly said, "Miss, you have everything ready! Hemp oil, rice vinegar, shredded red pepper, minced garlic, and salt."

Hemp oil is put into the pan, and it is a special aroma. Add chili shreds to stir-fry, and the room is full of flavor. Take out the soaked shreds of potatoes and stir-fry up and down with the blasting oil smoke. When the color changes slightly, add minced garlic and pour in rice vinegar. There is another slight sound. The unique flavor of the shreds of potatoes spreads. Everyone in the kitchen couldn't help but slow down their work and sniffed hesitantly: Is this the smell of the Dutch potato? The round, face and stupid Dutch potato can actually emit such a spicy smell?! This is really the Dutch potato with a numb face?

Sprinkle fine salt and set it out of the pot.

The potato shreds there have been blanched and are soaked in cold water. Xiaoxiao added the chopped green pepper shreds, fragrant pepper oil, a little salt, sesame oil, and stir evenly.

"Eat two potato shreds, stir-fry and stir-fry, and vinegar." The potato shreds were divided into two portions, and the two girls carefully carried them to the main room to taste for the old lady and Mr. Zhi.

Xiaoxiao didn't stop for a moment. It had almost ten minutes passed after half an hour. He quickly ordered the next step: "Pee the steamed potatoes and mash them into a paste."

Everyone was stunned for a moment. Did you hear it wrong or what? Mash it into a paste? Why do you have to eat it like this?!

Madam Fan ordered: "Hurry up, peel and mash the paste! Use the new garlic pounding pestles! Miss Five, mash these ten big potatoes into mash?"

Xiaoxiao nodded: "Because it is eaten directly, keep it clean."

I have been working in the kitchen for many years. Everyone knows the rules of maintaining cleanliness and hygienicity. Soon, I 'made' many crispy and rotten mashed potatoes cleanly.

...

The corner lights in the east room were on, and two more glass lamps were added to illuminate them.

The table of the eight immortals of the red sandalwood was placed in the middle of the room, the old lady was sitting on the couch, and Zhiqin was sitting on the chair opposite. In front of each person, there was a pair of blue and white porcelain plates, one filled with stir-fried potato shreds and the other filled with vinegar shreds. In addition to the shredded potato shreds, the red and green chili shreds were also very pleasing to the eye.

The two of them had no nerve to eat up all the shredded potatoes.

People who have not eaten crabs cannot appreciate the deliciousness of crab meat, and people who have not eaten shredded potatoes cannot appreciate the sour charm of shredded potatoes.

"That potato is obviously noodles." The old lady couldn't understand where this savory crispy taste that was not inferior to shredded radish came from, and the taste was much more delicious than shredded radish.

Zhiqin had already put down his chopsticks: "Although they are all matching potato shreds and peppers, they have made a different taste: cold wine and vinegar slipped into the rice."

The old lady smiled and agreed, but in this special delicacy, she felt an indescribable familiarity, as if she had eaten somewhere. It was not clear whether it was a previous life or a dream.

The girls have already brought the second dish: "Eat potato mashed, and have the same cheese and the same pepper."

On the banana leaf-shaped plate, there are two round mashed potato balls, accompanied by a small silver spoon. When dug down, it has a somewhat elastic texture. When sent into the mouth, it is a wonderful sand and glutinous taste, which is better than the taste of water chestnuts and yam. The mashed potato is wrapped in the same soft green beans, delicious diced ham, and a very rich fragrance.

The old lady became a gourmet at this time: "This taste is the fragrant white sauce from our Tang family."

"Tang Family Food is profound and extensive." Zhiqin took a sip of water and quickly tried the second mashed potato ball. The taste was different and had a strong milky aroma. "If you guessed it well, there were crispy cheese and high-quality milk tofu. These can be natural with Dutch potatoes."

Milk tofu is almost the cheese today.

The reason why Xiaoxiao chose to eat mashed potatoes is, one is to reflect the versatility of potatoes, and the other is that Brother Zhi loves to eat this cheese mashed potato, always greedily tasting food while saying "sin".

The old lady naturally likes it too. Such a soft and glutinous dish is just right for the teeth of the elderly.

"It's so sweet and salty." The old lady's surprise finally came out of her words, "This thing is called Dutch potato. It must be grown by those Dutch people. Could it be that they all eat it like this?"

Zhiqin smiled: "The Dutch are afraid they are not as smart as the five girls in the house."

The old lady is very helpful: "Mr. Zhi is over-reputable."

The third potato dish was brought over soon: "Fried potato cakes, sweet and salty."

A very humanized dish, considering the different tastes of people, although it is a dish made in just one stick of incense, it tries to take into account people's different taste buds.

The potato cakes are made into small round cakes with mashed potatoes, frying them into golden brown. The other one is a milky potato cake with milk and eggs.

But it turns out that this stupid and tasteless Dutch potato can be mixed cold, stir-fried, fryed, and made into glutinous mashed potato balls.

Zhiqin smiled: "Old lady, why worry about selling Dutch potatoes? It's obvious that you want to buy them."

The old lady: "Even so, this Dutch potato is still unfamiliar to the world."

As the two were talking, Xiaoxiao had already entered the house, followed by a girl holding a big bowl of soup.

"The incense stick is too short, so I have to cut corners." Xiaoxiao smiled and ordered the girl to set up the bowl of Qingshui Sea Beast and uncover the lid. "This should be the essence of potatoes, but it's not enough to make it. I'm afraid it's not enough to make it. You two will wait for Xiaoxiao to make it well tomorrow."

The rich aroma has already come to the nose "beef stewed with potatoes."

The old lady couldn't help asking: "How to stew the beef for just one stick of incense? That beef tests the heat."

Xiaoxiao said, "If you don't talk about cutting corners, you use the beef stewed at noon today. First, stew the potatoes cut into large pieces with beef soup, and then add the beef to stew in a pot. In this way, one stick of incense is enough."

Zhiqin had already tasted the beef soup with a spoon: "It is indeed different from ordinary beef soup, the soup is particularly thick."

Xiaoxiao said, "This is the credit of potatoes. Because it contains a lot of starch, the soup becomes thicker. If you stew fresh beef with potatoes for half a day, the taste will be even better!"

The old lady tasted the stewed potatoes: "The beef gravy is already delicious, and the corianders are also good. I didn't expect that this potato can be matched with meat, so I thought it was only suitable for vegetarian food."

Xiaoxiao also sat down and asked the girl to serve a small bowl of potato beef: "Potatoes and meat are perfect match! Like potato stewed with pork belly, potato stewed with chicken nuggets, the soup is thick, and it is best to serve rice!" Since eating the cherries and snacks in the afternoon, Xiaoxiao has not eaten yet and has been hungry. She didn't have the nerve to eat more potato mashed in the kitchen just now, and she didn't have the nerve to eat more, so she looked at her eyes.

The old lady was in a much better mood: "How can we let the world quickly understand the benefits of potatoes?"

Zhiqin seems to be confident: "Many of the vegetable merchants in Kyoto are family-style, and they are often distributed in the north and south to collect and sell vegetables. If all the vegetable merchants in Kyoto are invited and taste a table of potato food, it will definitely work."

The vegetable merchants mentioned by Zhiqin refer to those big vegetable wholesalers who stock up on vegetables from all over the world and then sell them to the vegetables.

The old lady nodded slightly and smiled and said, "Can you use these delicacies at the Wen family's rose banquet? At that time, there will definitely be customers asking about the ingredients. It's also a promotion for potatoes."

"Miss Fifth Girl is smart," said Zhiqin. "I heard that the Wen family's rose banquet will be held in large numbers. The new roses grown in Wen Xiding have been so beautiful that it may be known to everyone."

Xiaoxiao couldn't help but be surprised. The news about these people is so well-versed and they are worthy of being the elite in the business world. Which one is Wen Xidian? Wen San? I remember Xizi said that those blue roses were planted by her third brother.

Zhiqin said again: "In front of the old lady, Yuanmou wanted to ask the fifth girl for a few recipes of potato dishes. Second Master's restaurant must have a few dishes from the town."

Brother Zhi was still so quick-witted and smiled and said, "The second brother is his own family, why should Mr. Zhi speak those two families?"
