Chapter 99 A Busy Day
Chapter 99 A busy day
The next day, because Hyori caught a cold, Li Shenxing still made her with scallion porridge, and he made a bowl of noodle soup by himself.
After entering the bedroom, Li Shenxing walked to the window and opened the curtains to let the sun shine throughout the room. Then he walked to the window and called Hyoly, who was sleeping soundly, while lying on his back, woke up.
Khyori, who was woken up, squinted and asked, "It's so soon? What time is it?"
"It's already past eight o'clock in the morning, get up and wash and have breakfast."
Li Shenxing took away the quilt, pulled her up, and pushed her into the bathroom.
I started to sleep around 8 o'clock last night, and I have been sleeping for twelve hours now.
After she finished washing, the two of them went downstairs to have breakfast together.
"Do you feel better? What else is there to be uncomfortable?" Li Shenxing asked Hyoly, who was eating porridge.
"It's already done, there's no discomfort." Swallowed the porridge in his mouth and replied.
"That's good. Be careful to keep warm and not relapse. You should drink more water to get better quickly..." Li Shenxing Balabala instructed.
"I know, Oppa." She never refuted the things he told, nor did she think he was very long-winded, because he had forgotten his full love for her.
"When will you come back today?"
"I don't know, but I shouldn't be back for dinner with Oppa."
"Today, I will eat lighter things outside. Be careful not to eat greasy and spicy things, and don't eat cold things."
"Okay, I remember."
After breakfast, Li Shenxing helped Xiaoli make a pot of wolfberry, red dates, longan tea as usual.
When sending Hyoly out, Li Shenxing did not forget to instruct his assistant Jiang Huiying to tell her about Hyoly’s cold, and asked her to remind Hyoly to drink more hot water and explain in detail when eating.
Jiang Huiying could only nod and remember it carefully.
After seeing Hyoly off, Li Shenxing returned home and started cleaning.
More than half an hour later, Li Shenxing changed his clothes and came to the garage and drove out.
Two days ago, the chef in the Myeongdong store called him and said he was developing a new dish. However, when he encountered difficulties, he wanted him to go and have some advice. However, since he was going to shoot the birth of the family, there was no time to pass, so it was postponed.
So today I have time, Li Shenxing just went and checked it out.
....................................................................................................................................................................
"Dongxian, do you see Brother Yongtai there?"
Walking into the kitchen of the restaurant, Li Shenxing grabbed someone and asked.
Choi Dongxian, one of the sous chefs in Myeongdong shop, is one year younger than Lee Shenxing, but has a good cooking skills and is responsible for managing the after-meal desserts.
"Oh~! It's Brother Shenxing, I'll take you there. The chef is studying his new dish."
"Have you tasted it?"
"I tried it and it tasted pretty good, but the chef said that I felt that something was missing in the dish."
As they were talking, they saw Shin Yongtai who was concentrating on cooking.
Shin Yongtai, now forty-seven years old, is a chef at Myeongdong restaurant. He has been a chef for more than twenty years. He has been an apprentice since he was over teens, and has been taking charge of the spoon at the age of twenty-five, and has been going on until now.
Seeing Shin Yongtai focusing on cooking, Li Shenxing didn't come forward to disturb him, but stood by and watched while waiting.
It was not until Shin Yongtai put the dishes in the pot that Li Shenxing walked over.
"Brother Yongtai, is this the dish you have newly studied?"
"Oh, be careful, come and try it out. I always feel that something is missing, but I can't think of it."
When Shin Yongtai saw that it was Li Shenxing, he quickly took a pair of chopsticks and asked him to try it quickly and give him an idea.
Li Shenxing thought this dish was the lion's head in the Huai-Yang cuisine at first sight, but when he picked up some and put it in his mouth, he felt that it was not. The sauce of this meatball was different.
The lion head dish is usually pork, and then served with some carrots, lotus root, cabbage, green onion or glutinous rice, etc., chop it into foam, and add it according to your personal preference, then stir and fry it into a ball, and then thicken it on the meatballs.
This lion head meatball is important, but the sauce also accounts for half of the dish.
The people here have a light taste, they don’t have much oil and water when cooking, and they prefer a sour and sweet taste.
So Shin Yongtai wanted to use this lion head to improve the taste, so that it could meet the taste here without destroying the delicacy. However, he felt that after making it so many times, he still felt that the seasonings he made were still a little out of tune with the meatballs and could not be integrated well.
Li Shenxing picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. After a while, he made a sound.
"I probably know the taste you are looking for, Brother Yongtai, is it like the sweet and sour sauce of Thai-Chinese cuisine?"
"Yes, yes, yes, that's it." Shin Yongtai clapped his hands and shouted, "Oh, you don't know, there's something that keeps circling in your mind, but you just can't say it. As soon as you say it now, I know how to make this sauce."
After saying that, Shin Yongtai immediately started looking for ingredients again and started making sauce.
It didn't take long before he saw him bringing a plate of lion's heads.
"Try it, it should be done this time." This time, Shin Yongtai's expression became much more relaxed and he was full of confidence.
Li Shenxing took the chopsticks and picked up the balls in half, picked a smaller piece and put them into his mouth.
This time, Li Shenxing didn't say anything, but just gave Shin Yongtai a thumbs up.
Shin Yongtai smiled, smiling so hard that his little eyes were almost gone.
"Dongxian, come here to try it."
Li Shenxing called out to Cui Dongxian, who was passing by, and handed him the chopsticks.
"Okay!" Choi Dongxian took the chopsticks, picked up a piece of meatball and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Well!! This time it tastes better, reducing the greasiness. This sweet and sour tastes much more refreshing. I feel that I can eat it like this and I won't feel greasy. It's really delicious."
Before he could swallow the food in his mouth, Choi Dong-hyun grabbed another piece into his mouth. It seemed that the sauce was really to his taste this time.
"Brother Yongtai, according to the old rules, make a few more copies when you are not busy, let them all try, and then recommend the menu."
"Okay~!"
After the matter in the kitchen was handled, Li Shenxing went upstairs to his office and asked the finance department to take the account book to him for a review.
Although Li Shenxing asked a store manager to manage the restaurant, he still needed to come over from time to time to check the store's account book to avoid any bad things happening.
When Li Shenxing finished his work, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon. When he was about to rush home to cook for Hyoly, he remembered that she would not come back tonight for dinner.
If you are alone, Li Shenxing doesn’t want to cook at home, so he should just eat outside.
Open the computer in the office, enter the food forum website you often go to, and find the food recommended by netizens.
"Oh~! I haven't eaten Jeonju stone pot bibimbap for a long time, so I'll choose you today."
Li Shenxing turned off the computer, took the car keys, and walked out of the company.
