After a while, everyone saw that the meat had become much bigger, and everyone was very happy. Then they asked Xiang Jin if it was okay and if he still needed to continue beating.
Xiang Jin went over to check, and then made judgments one by one, "Well, uncle's one is beaten very well, the force is even, and the flexibility is just right, so there is no need to beat it any more;
Second uncle, you beat the middle of this one so badly, it’s almost like a zaiyuanzi. It won’t be easy to fry, and it will fall apart easily. You have to beat it until it’s tender but not falling apart, and the piece of meat will still be completely connected.
;
My aunt doesn’t need to beat her in the middle, but she needs to continue beating her on the four sides. It’s almost as good as the beating in the middle;
The second aunt's one is a little inferior to the uncle's one, but if you continue to beat it a few more times, it will be almost done."
Everyone went to get the piece of meat that the uncle was beating to watch, and then continued to beat it.
After beating it for a while, the second uncle said, "How long do you want to beat this piece by piece?"
Everyone just nodded because there was a pot of meat.
Xiang Jin said, "I just started, I want you to master the strength and technique, so I let you beat them piece by piece. The key to this Roujiamo is the meat. When you are all proficient, you can beat it all at once."
A lot of films.”
She followed her and brought out a few more large sticks, which were at least two or three times larger than the ones they were using now. Then she took out more than a dozen pieces of meat from the basin and spread them out.
She gave them a demonstration of beating. After beating for a while, she handed the stick in her hand to her uncle, "That's it, we can beat a batch in a while."
After her uncle tried it for a while, he said, "This one is much easier to use than the one just now. That one is too small and difficult to control the strength. This one is just right in the hand."
After hearing this, several people put down the small hammers in their hands and used big sticks instead. They also imitated the simple method, paving more than a dozen areas at once, and then started beating. After a while, his second uncle smiled with satisfaction.
, "Well, this is good, this is good!"
"Okay, you just keep beating the meat. When the meat is beaten, I will teach you the next step," Xiang Jin said, not wanting to continue watching them beat the meat.
Everyone nodded and said, "Okay, you go and do your work. We will call you when we are done."
"Um!"
Xiang Jin left the kitchen, intending to sort out the things that had not yet been sorted. Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the house, she found that everything in their home had been sorted, including tables, chairs, benches, and beds. They were all neatly sorted.
It's all in order, she doesn't need to sort it out.
It seemed that Aunt Liao and Grandma Mo helped them clean up.
When she returned to her room, she saw that her room had been tidied up and everything was neat and tidy. She was indeed a mysophobic person and could not tolerate even the slightest bit of mess. Everything was in order.
Neat.
Yes, there is nothing for her to do!
So Xiang Jin took out the paper and pen, walked to the desk, and wrote out the seasonings for the meat, planning to give it to her uncle and aunts so that they could use this list to purchase it.
seasoning.
After switching to the big stick, the progress was indeed much faster. In about half an hour, a pot of meat was beaten out by them. Xiang Jin and her second aunt came to call and teach them what to do next.
Then Xiang Jin took out several seasonings, a few local eggs, and a small bag of pea starch, and taught them how to mix the ingredients. During the teaching process, she told them, "The purpose of this pea starch and local eggs is to make this
Eat meat when the time comes
It tastes more tender and smooth. The sugar and soy sauce are used to add freshness and improve the taste of the meat. The purpose of pouring water into the meat and stirring it repeatedly is to make the meat have sufficient moisture, so that the meat will not taste better.
As for dry wood and firewood, here we go
Pour some vegetable oil into the meat to lock in the moisture in the meat. For example, when we marinate meat, it takes a certain amount of time so that the meat can take on the flavor. In this process, the moisture in the meat is easy to evaporate.
So we're in the flesh
Put some vegetable oil, because vegetable oil will form a diaphragm in the air. Of course, in order to prevent the moisture in the meat from evaporating too quickly during the marinating process, we can also cover the pot with a clean
Plastic bag.”
Her uncles and aunts nodded, and her eldest aunt said, "I didn't expect that there is so much detail in marinating meat. Is it any wonder that the rice cooked by Jin Yatou is so delicious?"
Xiang Jin waved his hand and said, "This is nothing. If I compare with those chefs, I can only be regarded as an entry-level chef."
Her second aunt said, "Oh, you're still just getting started, so wouldn't it mean that the rest of us don't even know how to cook?"
Everyone laughed again, and Xiang Jin said, "Although I know more theoretical knowledge about cooking than you do, I don't have much practical experience, and I don't know how to cook every dish."
Do it. What I teach you are these simple things. Of course, this will not stop us from making money. Look, my mother is an example, right?"
Everyone nodded and said yes, and then her second uncle asked, "How long does this meat need to be marinated? Generally half an hour to an hour is enough. Of course, if you have time, you can marinate it even more."
It’s better to cook it longer, as it will taste better.”
Everyone nodded, and after Xiang Jin mixed the meat evenly, he directly took a large stainless steel basin cover and put it on, "We don't have plastic film or clean plastic bags at home, so we used this instead."
Several people nodded again.
"Then what? Are there any other steps?" Her second aunt asked again.
Xiang Jin nodded, "Yes, the next step is to make the sauce. For this sauce, I use sesame butter and peanut butter, mixed with a little black pepper, pea starch and water to thicken it.
After the meat is fried, pour
A small spoonful of this sauce will taste better. The sesame sauce and peanut butter are the finished products I bought in town last time, but you can make them at home, but you don’t have to add both kinds of sauce. You can also
It could just be peanut butter.”
"Oh, so? Okay," the people understood, and then they followed Xiang Jin to the stove and watched how she mixed the sauce.
Xiang Jin demonstrated to them, and then let them operate it by themselves, saying that they would use it during dinner later, and they took turns to do it.
Then Xiang Jin walked aside to pick and wash lettuce. Her aunt saw it and came over and asked, "Is this also necessary?"
Xiang Jin nodded, "Yes, I need it."
Then her aunt would clean up with her.
After doing this, her second uncle came over and asked her, "Girl Jin, it's so complicated. Will we make money by then? How much money can we make?"
Her second aunt gave her second uncle a tug and said, "You see you are so anxious. You haven't even started yet, but you are already worrying about making money. Do you have any future?"
His second uncle said, "That's for sure. Look, here we are making noodles and steaming buns, cutting and pounding meat, frying meat and adding juice. Oh, by the way, we also have to invest in it."
There are so many processes for a piece of lettuce, so you still have to worry about making money all at once."
Xiang Jin and her second aunt remained silent, and her eldest uncle and aunt also looked at Xiang Jin expectantly.
Xiang Jin curled his lips and said, "I can understand what my uncle and aunts are thinking. How about we go inside and I can calculate the accounts for you?"
A few people nodded, and then everyone left the kitchen together.
After arriving at the room, Xiang Jin took out paper and pen, and then calculated with them, "Look, our school pays 250 cents for two steamed buns, which means that the actual cost of one steamed bun is only
A few cents, let’s go bigger
He said, a steamed bun costs eight cents. The price of meat outside is as high as four yuan a pound. A pound of 20 centimeters long meat can be cut according to the thickness you just had.
Cut it into sixty to seventy pieces, and we'll
Let’s calculate sixty slices at a time. The cost of one slice is sixty-six cents or sixty-seven cents. Let’s also calculate seven cents vigorously. For example, in the lettuce market, it costs two cents per pound. A piece of lettuce costs at least 70 cents.
Also pull out eleven or two leaves, two
Let's count one lettuce leaf per kilogram, that's twenty-four pieces. The cost of one lettuce leaf is just over eight cents, less than nine cents. As for the eggs, I cracked five eggs today, so we'll give them 15 cents
The cost of one pill, then three pills
It's seventy-five cents. You have almost three kilograms of meat cut today. There are one hundred and eighty slices of three kilograms of meat. The average cost of egg liquid for each slice is four cents. Besides the cost of the seasonings, I will put some for you today.
The total cost of those condiments I spent last time was just over five yuan, but the cost of sesame butter and peanut butter was a bit high, one cost three yuan a bottle and the other two yuan five a bottle, but our family used it very much.
, and it’s impossible for you to use these ingredients all at once
After using it up, you will have to use it at least ten times for the amount you have today. Five yuan plus five yuan and a half, a total of ten yuan, three pounds of meat and one hundred and eighty slices. The cost of each slice is only five cents and five cents.
If it looks like six, it costs six cents. The sum of several items adds up to the final result.
The cost is only 223 cents or less than 25 cents. Of course, including water, electricity, labor, and firewood, the total cost may be 50 cents each. You can buy it at 1.23 cents or 1.50 cents.
Not a problem."
After her analysis and explanation, several people couldn't help but exclaimed, "Is the profit so high?"
Xiang Jin nodded, and continued to analyze with them, "Look, if you buy noodles and vermicelli from a random restaurant on the street, it's at least one yuan and a half or more, right?"
A few people nodded, "That's the price."
Then her second aunt asked, "But are we selling steamed buns?"
Xiang Jin said, "It's steamed buns for sale, but our steamed buns have meat added in them, and it's a big piece of fried black pepper meat, and a piece of lettuce is added in it, so it's not a pure steamed bun, then."
It's called Roujiamo. If you eat one, it's almost as good as a bowl of noodles or vermicelli, you know?
Look at the street, who can make steamed buns like we do? No, right? What they sell is just steamed buns and steamed buns. The streets are full of steamed buns and steamed buns. They are not novel at all. Who cares to eat them?
You must be clear that the main customer group you have to face there are the students in the town opposite. Let me tell you, students love to eat those weird things. There are at least two thousand people in that town. At present,
, my mother has many students from the town buying braised pork from him.
Students in towns are different from students in rural primary schools. Students in rural primary schools are given five yuan a week for living expenses, but the town is more prosperous than the countryside, and prices are higher and more expensive.
Therefore, the living expenses provided by the families of children studying in the town are at least eight yuan or ten yuan a week, and some even go up even if their families are well off.
With so many students, two to three hundred people can buy roujiamo from your place a day. After deducting the cost, each family can make a net profit of about one hundred yuan. Of course, if you think it is one yuan, two or three yuan, one yuan
If the five-yuan Roujiamo is expensive, you can also cook some vegetables for others.
Porridge, just the kind with a few grains of rice. Your head will be really cold in winter. You can also give people bowls of that porridge for free. This way others will think you are more sincere and won’t feel that way.
It’s too expensive for you to sell just one meat bun, and more people will come to eat at your place.”
After her two uncles and aunts heard her suggestion, they immediately laughed and said, "Oh, this is a good idea. Well, I think we will sell it like this when the time comes."
Seeing that no one had any objections, the matter was settled. Xiang Jin followed up and said, "Selling roujiamo is still a bit monotonous. Now I will teach you how to make fried rice noodles. Then you can sell them together.
This way, others will have more choices. If you eat the Roujiamo every day, you will get tired of it, and you will have to change your taste occasionally."
Everyone nodded, and their enthusiasm was very high, so Xiang Jin led everyone to the kitchen again, and then pointed to a small basin of soaked rice on the chopping board and said, "This is the rice I just soaked when I came here in the morning."
, Logically, it needs to be soaked one day in advance, so that the rice can be better ground into rice milk, but due to limited time, we are about to make it." After saying that, she rubbed the rice and washed it.
One, followed by another
Adding a little water, she told her two uncles, "Please, uncle and uncle, grind the rice into rice flour in batches. In principle, it is rice slurry, but we don't have a stone mill at home, so
Just make do with it
First, grind it into rice flour, and then blend it with water into rice slurry. But you still have to be careful. Although it is rice flour, the rice still contains water. Don't let the rice slurry splash on you.
"
The two nodded and followed the instructions. Then one person took a small stone mortar and began to pound the rice. After a while, the rice from the first mortar of the two people was pounded out. Xiang Jin asked them to pour it out, and then continued to pound,
And she led her two aunts to teach them how to blend rice milk, "Well,
Just like that, slowly add a little water, and then stir. Don't add too much, otherwise the rice milk will be too thin, and it will be difficult to make rice noodles. Our rice milk should be thicker.
, it’s almost the same consistency as when you spread pancakes.”
The two of them nodded, and then Xiang Jin took out a small fine sieve that she had bought at the supply and marketing cooperative earlier, which was specially used to sift flour. She originally wanted to use this to make pastries.
But since it has never been available, it has never been used, but this time it came in handy.
"Let's filter the blended rice milk through this. The main purpose is to filter out the larger particles in the rice milk, so that the rice noodles we make will be fine, textured and taste better.
But when it comes to taste, it would be better if some tapioca starch could be added to this rice noodle, which would make it elastic. But it doesn’t matter if you don’t have it. We can also add some pea starch. We only have this pea starch at home, so let’s try it.
?”
Her two aunts nodded, and then Xiang Jin said, "Two aunts, which one of you is going to help me boil a pot? I need to put some water in the pot, just one or two ladles will be enough."
Her aunt volunteered, "I'll go!"
"Second aunt, go and prepare half a basin of water in that big basin. It will be useful later."
Her second aunt also nodded and obeyed.
Then Xiang Jin put a little more pea starch into the rice milk. After mixing them thoroughly, he went to find a thin-bottomed stainless steel basin, then cleaned the basin and wiped it with a rag.
Then she took out a small bowl, which still had some water. She wiped it clean with a rag, and then poured a little clear oil into the small bowl.
Soon the water in her aunt's pot was boiling, and her second aunt had already returned with the water. Then Xiang Jin said to her two aunts, "Now, just like this, brush the bottom of this basin.
Apply a layer of oil on the wall of the basin and apply it evenly, so that it can be easily removed from the mold when the time comes."
The two nodded, and Xiang Jin followed, "Then scoop a spoonful or half a spoonful of rice milk at the bottom of the basin, shake it evenly at the bottom, then put the stainless steel basin into the pot to steam for a while, and then
Cover the pot and it will be steaming in about two to three minutes."
Xiang Jin estimated that the time was almost up, and then opened the lid of the pot, "Well, that's it, it's almost done. You can take the pot out. Be careful, put a handkerchief on it when carrying it, be careful not to burn your hands, like this,
Then put this basin into the basin of water that I asked my second aunt to prepare just now, and let it cool down quickly.
Finally, unmold it from the basin, then spread it out on the chopping board, and brush the surface with a layer of oil again to avoid adhesion. Then the basin bottom will be smooth every time it is used.
You need to apply a layer of oil like this," Xiang Jin then poured another spoonful of rice milk into the basin, then shook it evenly and put it into the pot to steam.
After doing this several times, Xiang Jin stacked several thin round rice cakes on top of each other, cut them into strips about 1.5 centimeters wide, and then scattered the strips, "Now,
This is rice noodles, and then they are piled up. It can be boiled and eaten like small noodles, or stir-fried. It is already steamed, so when it is cooked and eaten, it is cooked directly in the pot.
Water becomes it, which is equivalent to taking it
Come on, this fried rice noodles can be fried with eggs or meat. The soup rice noodles should be served in a bowl, and the fried rice noodles should be served on a plate. Just use the kind of plate you use at home to hold stir-fried vegetables. It doesn’t have to be too big.
It doesn’t have to be too small, it’s just normal. You can decide for yourself what price to set at that time. This kind of food is not available in our town, so there should be a market by then. Let’s fry a few plates for everyone to try in the evening?”
Only her aunt nodded, "Yeah, yeah, okay, okay!"
Xiang Jin laughed, and then she went to cook the pot and asked her two aunts to take turns making the rice noodles. At this time, her two uncles had also pounded the rice and came over. Then her second aunt directly asked her eldest aunt to make it.
For this rice noodles, she went to blend the rice milk.
The two uncles also put a lot of effort into opening this shop. They followed the two kinds of food that Xiang Jin taught them today. Xiang Jin also tried his best to let each of them personally participate in the entire production process.
.
Finally, Xiang Jin told them, "I probably soaked about two kilograms of rice in the morning, but look, we can actually make so much rice noodles now. It should be five or six kilograms, right?"
Her aunt said, "Oh, yes, yes!"
Then Xiang Jin said, "One pound of rice can make ten portions of fried rice noodles. Add some vegetable leaves and stir-fry them together. Three taels can make a big plate. You can work out some prices then.
For example, what’s the price for adding an egg to stir-fry?
What’s the price range for stir-fried rice noodles with meat, and what’s the price range for stir-fried rice noodles with eggs and meat? Of course, in order to prevent people from having dry mouth after eating fried rice noodles, you can still give them one for free.
A bowl of vegetables and porridge to drink.”
Her two uncles and aunt nodded again, and her uncle said, "Well, Girl Jin's method is good, I think it will work."
When Xiang Jin saw that the time was almost up, he said, "Then let's fry the meat. In fact, it's best to use that pan for frying the meat, because it heats evenly and has a large space, so the meat and vegetables cooked that way are more delicious.
, and it’s not easy to burn, but we don’t have any at home, so we just make do with it.
, two uncles, I will draw a picture for you when the time comes, and then you go to the town to find the stainless steel maker, or the old blacksmith who makes pots, and ask them to make you a pan of that type, and then that flat bottom
The pot can be used to fry meat, stir-fry rice noodles, and make fried rice and so on?"
The two uncles nodded in agreement, and her uncle said, "Okay, okay, tomorrow on the spot, your second uncle and I will go to the town to find the blacksmith."
Her eldest aunt scooped out the water in the pot, and her second aunt took the initiative to boil the pot. Her two uncles stood nearby and watched. After all the water vapor in the pot was boiled away, Xiang Jin put a small amount of water in the pot.
Vegetable oil, and told her second aunt, "Second aunt, the fire should be smaller and not too big. If you do business on the body in the future, just use the charcoal fire directly on the body.
You can grill it below, or you can use a gas tank. In fact, it is most convenient to use a gas pipe. When someone comes, you can turn on the fried meat or stir-fry noodles. The charcoal fire should be burning all day long, but in the afternoon
It's not very convenient when the business is closed. You have to put out all the fires inside before you can leave. Otherwise, what will happen if a fire breaks out?
Of course, you can make your choice based on the actual situation and how to use it locally."
Everyone nodded again, "Well, that's it. Before you put the meat in the pan and start frying, you have to stir it again so that the egg liquid and seasonings on it are as even as possible. When frying,
To do this, spread them out piece by piece, and during the frying process, turn them frequently so that both sides are heated evenly. Then the meat will be cooked evenly, and it will also prevent them from being burnt.
These meats are not thick, so you don’t need to fry them for too long during the frying process. After the meat on both sides has changed color, you can just put it in the pan and put it on the steamed bun together with the lettuce.
Then pour a layer of the prepared sauce on top of it, and then give it to others to eat. You all wait a minute while I fry some more, and then everyone comes and tastes it."
After more than ten minutes, Xiang Jin had almost fried twenty or thirty pieces of meat, and then asked her second aunt to fetch five or six steamed buns from the basket, "Since we are trying it now, let's just take this."
Cut the steamed buns into slices, then put a piece of green vegetable leaf on top of a layer of steamed buns, then put a piece of meat on top of the green vegetable leaf, and then pour some soy sauce on top of the meat.
Sauce, and then cover it with a layer of steamed bun slices. When you sell the Roujiamo, just make a slit in the middle of the steamed bun, but don’t cut off the steamed bun.
, otherwise the sauce will drip easily, then stuff the lettuce and meat slices into the opening, and then pour a spoonful of sauce inside."
Her second aunt immediately went to cut the steamed buns into slices, and then Xiang Jin asked them all to do it themselves, while she wrapped one herself. After wrapping it, she directly held the two ends of the steamed bun slices and ate it.
Her uncle and aunts started to taste the food, and after they took a bite, they all praised Xiang Jin, "Well, it's delicious. Not to mention, it's really strange to eat steamed buns in such a way. Take one bite."
Not only are there vegetables and meat, but the steamed buns are also stained with the fragrance of the juice, and the steamed buns don’t taste as tasteless as the previous steamed buns.”
Others also said that the Roujiamo was delicious, and Xiang Jin thought to herself: Of course, her Roujiamo was based on a southern snack called Guokui jelly combined with hamburgers in her previous life. In this era, it was not
It is easy to make bread, so I can only use bread instead. However, her two aunts steamed the steamed buns well today, and they were moderately soft.
Seeing that everyone said it was delicious, Xiang Jin said, "Then I will give one to each of my grandparents and cousins so that they can try it too?"
A few people said yes, and then Xiang Jin found a clean small basket, and then wrapped one for each of them and sent it over. Without exception, it was unanimously praised by everyone.
Her grandmother looked at her and asked with a smile, "Is this what you want your two uncles to cook?"
Xiang Jin nodded, "Yes, but not only that, I also taught them how to make a kind of food today, which is called stir-fried rice noodles. We will also stir-fry one later and let everyone try it?"
Her grandmother's eyes narrowed with a smile and she said cheerfully, "Okay, try them all!"
Then Xiang Jin asked his cousin to finish eating and then went to call Yan Chen and Aunt Liao to have dinner. Then he returned to the kitchen again, and then took a few pieces of braised pork from the braised pot and drained it.
She planned that they would eat meat with steamed buns, fried rice noodles and braised pork with rice porridge in the evening, and they would bring these with them when the time came.
After dinner, Xiang Jin and the others brought food. Because Yang Hui’s thermos bucket was kept at home, Xiang Jin took one directly from home. Anyway, they have moved here now and there is no need to give it to him in the future.
Grandpa delivers meals three times a day again, so this thermos bucket may only be used occasionally, and is basically not used at other times. She will just take it back when she goes on vacation next time.
But she also considered that Zeng Qing had helped her this time, so she directly took out a piece of meat from the braised meat pot, cut it into thin slices, put it in a clean plastic bag, and planned to hand it to her later.
Before leaving, Xiang Jin winked at her two aunts and said, "When I come back next time, I'll teach you how to publish, okay?"
"Oh, you still need to teach me? Okay, okay!" Her aunt suddenly laughed so hard that she couldn't even see her teeth.
