The nearby vegetable market is very lively in the morning, and there are all kinds of fresh vegetables. Due to the absence of meat food in the past eighty years, people's cultivation of vegetables has reached a new level, with diverse varieties, rich nutrition, and more outstanding taste. Of course, the ingredients that Ye Cui want to purchase are not vegetables, but mutton, which is for the preparation of stalls at night.
The meat stalls in the vegetable market are much colder than vegetable stalls. After all, although meat has reappeared, most people in this era are already very unfamiliar with meat. Some people cannot even accept the concept of eating meat, which has led to the strange situation that the price of meat is not even comparable to that of vegetables.
All kinds of freshly slaughtered fresh meat were almost ignored, but it was cheaper, which greatly reduced the cost of his mutton kebabs.
Speaking of kebabs, there is still an allusion for Ye Chui. In his last life, he sold kebabs for a while in his youth. It was the beginning of his career as a chef. Now he has lived a life again and everything has to start over. As the starting stage, he has started selling kebabs again, which is quite a bit of fate for Ye Chui. Of course, Ye Chui is now reborn in such an environment, which is like a fish in water for him. The beginning of selling kebabs is much higher than in his previous life.
"Young man is here to buy mutton again." Seeing Ye Chu come over with a fresh box, the uncle who sold the meat immediately smiled and greeted him, "Come and see, this meat is the fresh meat I just pulled from the slaughterhouse in the morning."
During this period of time, I came to buy meat every day. As the uncle was already quite familiar, Ye Chu nodded and began to check the meat on the chopping board very professionally.
The most suitable meat for grilled lamb kebabs is the front tendon meat, that is, the front and back legs of lamb. This kind of meat is reinforced with the tendons connected to make the meat kebabs very delicious. In addition, the "carrying pole meat" on the spine and the "square meat" on the ribs are also very good choices.
With his professional gaze, Ye Chui quickly selected the good mutton for barbecue. There were about fifty kilograms of mutton made into mutton skewers, which was enough to make thousands of skewers, which was almost enough for his consumption in one night. Moreover, the mutton here is very cheap. On average, several types of meat only cost twenty yuan per kilogram, and fifty kilograms are only one thousand yuan. Calculated at the price of two yuan per skewers per skewers, and subtracting these costs, Ye Chui can earn seven or eight hundred yuan in one night.
For the owner of the mutton stall, Ye Chui was a regular customer or a big customer, so he took good care of himself. He helped Ye Chui carefully wrap the 50 kilograms of meat, so he almost helped Ye Chui deliver the mutton to the tricycle outside.
He left with the mutton with some difficulty. Ye Chui thought of what he promised Wang Shiyu in the morning, so he looked around and thought about what kind of meal he would make at noon. He has been reborn for more than half a month. He has been busy with the mutton stall for a while. It has been a long time since he cooked seriously. He has been a little itchy.
Looking at the meat stall around, Ye Chui's eyes suddenly lit up, but he saw a stall selling white chickens in front of him.
"Cook that dish at noon!"
Ye Chui had an idea in his heart and immediately walked to the stall.
The white chicken here is a broiler with chicken feathers removed and the internal organs were cleaned. When the boss of the meat stall saw the customer coming to the door, he immediately started selling his chicken. However, the leaf drooped and turned a deaf ear. He just focused on picking and choosing. After a while, he finally chose a satisfactory white chicken and gave it to the boss to weigh it.
The boss quickly praised him, became curious again, and asked Ye Chui tentatively: "Sir, I saw you picking for a long time just now. Is there any trick here?"
The chicken was put on the dining table again for only two years. Even the boss who sold the white chicken was not very clear about the tricks. He was just curious at this moment and asked Ye Chui for a moment. Ye Chui thought it was not a secret, so he simply told the boss about the key points of choosing white chicken.
"There are four main points to pay attention to when buying chicken, namely, look at the edge of the knife, look at the eyeball, look at the skin, and look at the chicken feet. First, look at the edge of the knife. A good white-striped chicken should have a slaughter blade on the neck, and blood infiltrated at the edge of the knife. However, a sick white-striped chicken does not have a slaughter blade. If it is slaughtered after death, there will be no blood infiltrating at the edge of the knife. Then look at the chicken's eyeballs. A good white-striped chicken has a full and shiny eyeball, and the eyelids are mostly fully open or half-open. If it is a sick white-striped chicken, the eyeballs will shrink and sink, have no luster, and the eyelids will be completely closed. Then look at the skin..."
After Ye Chui said these words, the boss was stunned. He never expected that there were so many tricks here. He hurriedly said: "I have gained some knowledge today, but brother, look at my chicken, there is absolutely no adulteration at all. They are all freshly slaughtered chickens."
"The chicken is indeed excellent. I will patronize you next time." Ye Chui took the bagged white chicken from the boss's hand, said with a smile, and walked away with a heavy mutton.
The owner of the White Chicken Stand was obsessed with Ye Chui's words. Whenever someone came to buy chicken, he would not help but show off to prove that the white chicken here was the best.
As noon approached, a fat man with sweating profusely rushed over. The fat man was about thirties, with big heads and ears, very white, sweating heavily on his forehead, and his white shirt was soaked with an anxious look on his face. He didn't know what was going on.
He came to the meat stall of the white chicken and hurriedly started to choose.
The boss then continued to show off what he had just learned: "The chicken here is the freshest and best. When choosing this white chicken, you have to look at four aspects, namely..."
After hearing the boss talked about it, the fat man who was searching for him suddenly became stunned. He was obviously shocked by this trick. He raised his head and looked at the boss blankly: "You seem to know much about chicken? Then... do you know how to make chicken?"
"Make a chicken?"
The boss shook his head quickly: "I am just a chicken seller. I don't know how to cook. I just want to make soup when I want to eat it, but there is nothing strange about it."
The fat man looked disappointed: "Oh, after hearing you talked so many tricks, I thought you understood this very well."
"Haha, I'm really sure what I said just now was a young man this morning. That young man knows a lot." The boss said casually with a smile.
"Listen to a young man?" The fat man's eyes lit up, "What did that young man do?"
"I don't know the specifics of this... I don't know. Go and ask the boss of the mutton stall over there, he is familiar."
After hearing what the chicken stall owner said, the fat man hurried to the mutton stall to inquire. It happened that the owner of the mutton stall had really noticed where Ye Chui lived. Although he didn't know the specific address, he knew about which community. The fat man thanked him and ran to Ye Chui's community in a hurry.
At noon, the fat man wiped the sweat from his forehead. He had just arrived in this shabby community and his nose suddenly twitched vigorously.
"What a smell...this is chicken! But, how does this... taste come from it!?"
