Chapter 231： Squirrel mandarin fish

In the restaurant in front, the eyes of the three families are still the same as the three little girls, and naturally they are still worried about what Wang Cuifeng said.

Even when the three little girls approach the door intentionally or unintentionally, they will make everyone faintly worried.

When I went to see the people coming and going on the old street, Su Ruoxi always felt that when everyone passed by the door and looked into the restaurant, he seemed to be observing three little girls.

Finally, under tension, Su Ruoxi couldn't help calling the three little girls to her side.

"Ruoruo, Xixi, Feifei, the three of you can go upstairs and have fun. When the meal is ready, I will tell you to come down, okay?"

What Su Ruoxi said made the three little girls feel very strange. The parents who were present were taken aback for a moment, and then they thought it was good to go upstairs to play, to avoid the crowds in the restaurant, and the crowds could not be taken care of by everyone.

But the three little girls didn't understand very much.

Feng Ruoruo asked strangely: "Mom, why do you want to go upstairs to play? I still want to give Dad the menu."

Su Ruoxi didn't know how to explain to her daughter, so she could only say: "There are not many guests today. Mom can give Dad a menu."

Feng Ruoruo pouted her little mouth and was very unhappy: "But mother, it has always been Ruoruo's job to deliver menus."

Yang Xiaoxi also leaned in and said, "Aunt Su, we can play downstairs. We promise to be obedient and not disturb the guests eating."

Chen Yaofei also nodded and promised: "Yes, yes, Aunt Su, we promise not to disturb the guests."

When Su Ruoxi saw the three little girls, she really didn't know what to say, but she was still worried, so she didn't want the little girls to turn around downstairs.

When there was a stalemate on both sides, Lu Cuiling came over and stretched out her hand and patted the back of her daughter-in-law's hand gently: "It doesn't matter, so many of us are here to guard the child, nothing will happen."

When Wang Cuifeng saw this situation, especially Su Ruoxi's nervousness, she suddenly felt that she might not have been so serious.

After thinking for a while, Wang Cuifeng also approached Su Ruoxi and said in a low voice, "That person has already left. Maybe I'm too worried. People just come to see Su Ji's position. Will I come to eat in the future?"

After hearing this, Lu Cuiling comforted softly: "Yes, maybe I just want to come to Su Ji for dinner, don't think too much."

Under the comfort of her mother-in-law and Wang Cuifeng, Su Ruoxi slowly calmed down.

Feng Ruoruo saw her mother, and the little girl leaned over, gently placed her little hand on her mother's hand, looked at her mother with big eyes, and said pleasantly: "Mom, don't be angry, we promise not to disturb the guests eating. ."

Su Ruoxi had calmed down at this time, and her worries were calmed by her mother-in-law and Wang Cuifeng.

Seeing her daughter's serious look, she reluctantly smiled and said, "Well, my mother promised Ruoruo. Then Ruoruo also promised mother that she can't go outside the restaurant, okay?"

Feng Ruoruo smiled when she saw her mother, "Okay, Ruoruo promised not to go out."

Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei also said in unison: "Yes, we won't go out."

When the three little girls continued to play, Yang Zhiyi sighed and said softly: "This kind of thing is really worrying. If Xixi's mother is here, I'm afraid she has already called the police."

For any mother, the child is very important in her heart.

So Yang Zhiyi was able to understand Su Ruoxi's mood at the moment, and then he simply moved a chair and sat in the doorway, as a help guarding the door, preventing the children from going out on the street.

Wang Cuifeng saw that the parents were nervous and a little bit guilty: "I blame it all, it's a bit serious."

Lu Cuiling said seriously: "Don't blame you, even if it's not that serious, we should really take it seriously."

Fortunately, I didn't see that person again. There were people coming and going on the old street and I didn't see any weird people, so slowly everyone was relieved.

At the same time, in the back kitchen, Feng Yifan didn't know what happened before, and he was still teaching his apprentice seriously.

The key point of this dish of squirrel mandarin fish is the knife work, the second is the oil setting, and the last point is the sauce.

After the mandarin fish is cleaned up, first chop off the fish head with a single knife, hide the fish jaw, and break the fish head open to clean the inside of the fish head.

Next, first trim the body of the fish, such as trimming off all the fins.

In addition, some minor repairs are needed at the fish tail. But the fish tail can be shaped like a dovetail so that it will look beautiful when placed on the plate.

After everything is trimmed, the next step is the end point. The big fish bones in the middle of the fish body must be removed.

Feng Yifan held the fish on the dish and explained to the apprentice around him as he did it: "You have to look carefully, you must stick to the middle bone, and then the knife goes in through this incision, and the knife body must be pressed against the bone and pushed toward the fish tail."

Pushing it close to the tail, Feng Yifan didn't cut off a piece of fish directly.

"You can't cut it here, you must stop at this tail, then turn over, and still push and remove the bones, don't cut it off."

After the last two pieces of fish were opened, Feng Yifan used a knife at the tail to chop off the fish bones.

"Chop off the fish bones, don't throw them away, you can save them for soup."

After the fish bones were removed, Feng Yifan proceeded to the next step of processing the two pieces of fish meat. The bones inside the fish meat and the scarlet parts were removed, and the two pieces of fish meat were kept intact.

"You should also pay attention to the handling here, and don't damage these two pieces of fish."

After finishing cleaning up, the next step is the most important part of this dish.

"The cutting knife, first of all slice the fish at an angle, and slice it with an oblique knife, so that when the knife goes down and wipe one piece, you must also remember here, don't cut the fish."

Lin Ruifeng stood aside and didn't even dare to show up, he could only watch Master's every step seriously.

Seeing that the master cut it down very accurately, the first piece was sliced. The fish was sliced ​​apart, but it was not cut off, almost only the skin part was slightly connected.

Lin Ruifeng was amazed at Master's fast and steady knife skills.

And it didn't take long. Feng Yifan quickly slashed all a piece of fish with the blades, each piece of uniform thickness.

After the slices were opened, Feng Yifan laid the fish flat again, and then he held the fish and said to his apprentice: "Next, it's a vertical knife, and then you have to slant the fish, so you can't cut it with one knife."

When the fish is sliced, it is sliced ​​along the body of the fish, but now when cutting with a vertical knife, the fish is sliced ​​diagonally.

Feng Yifan's hands and the knife are still very stable, and the depth of each knife is just right, and the fish will never be cut off. At the same time, almost only the fillet is connected.

It was very quickly again, the fish meat was cut with a vertical knife, and the fish meat was changed to the knife.

Feng Yifan splashed a little bit of water, then lifted up and shook slightly, immediately showing the flesh of the broken flowers one by one.

Lin Ruifeng saw his eyes straight, and couldn't help but want to applaud Master.

The other piece of fish is the same method and knife. The fish is changed with a knife, and finally the fish with the knife is put into a basin and marinated with cooking wine and green onion and **** water.

Because I ordered this dish at the two tables outside, while marinating the first one, Feng Yifan also finished the other one.

Put them together in a basin for marinating. After marinating is almost done, take them out to dry the water on the fish.

Feng Yifan did not forget to remind students of the main points: "Remember, you must wipe off the water before adding powder."

During the flouring process, Feng Yifan almost carefully broke each small piece of fish meat, and carefully pressed the flour on the top.

The next important step is to deep-fry the fish.

Feng Yifan first heated the oil and threw in a little powder to test the temperature of the oil.

"You can see clearly, this powder is thrown in, and you can see that the oil is turned over. The oil temperature is enough. Grasp the tail of the fish and slowly put the fish into the oil. During the shaping process, you must lift the fish. Tail so that its shape will not fall apart."

After the fish is shaped, it is slowly placed in the frying pan for frying. In this process, the fish in the frying pan is also to be watched at all times.

Squirrel mandarin fish is a charred dish, so in the process of frying, to make the outside charred and tender inside is a very test for a cook to control the heat.

Lin Ruifeng stood by and watched the Master seriously. Although his eyes didn't seem to be difficult, he knew he couldn't do it.

When the fish was fried until golden brown, Feng Yifan took the fish out and quickly placed it on the plate.

And at the same time, in another pot, quickly pour the tomato sauce he prepared, then add salt and sugar to taste, and finally thicken the thickening, add another time to thicken the juice, and add some green beans. Embellishment.

Finally, pour the prepared sauce on the fish body that has been fried or even not completely cooled.

Feng Yifan's speed was very fast. He made two fishes almost at the same time, and finally made some trimmings on the plates.

Lin Ruifeng looked at him incredulously, and Master had completed such two plates of squirrel mandarin fish, and there seemed to be almost no difference.

Feng Yifan patted the apprentice who was still a little stunned: "Okay, don't be stunned, come with me to serve food."

Lin Ruifeng agreed, and then held a plate with Master separately. Seeing that Master was also serving some other dishes by the way, the master and apprentice walked out of the back kitchen together and served dishes to the guests in the restaurant in front.

The two squirrel mandarin fish were served almost at the same time, which surprised the guests at both tables.

Especially because the fish is still hot, and the sauce on the toppings is also hot, so when it is served, the fish body still makes a sound of "squeaking" the juice penetrates into the crispy fish meat, much like the sound of a squirrel.

After listening to Feng Ruoruo's recommendation of the middle-aged man who ordered this dish, seeing such a dish on the table, he really sighed from the bottom of his heart: "It's really so beautiful."

The young people at the other table have already taken out their phones and started to take pictures of the dishes on the table. They can’t wait to share their circle of friends.

The middle-aged man went on to say: "I didn't expect that your squirrel mandarin fish would be so authentic."

Someone at the same table couldn't help but ask: "It seems that squirrel mandarin fish is a dish that many restaurants will have? Is there anything special here?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Did you hear that this dish is still making a squeaking sound when you are serving it?"

The people at the same table nodded their heads to show that they heard it.

The middle-aged man continued: "This sound is the essence of this dish. Why is it called squirrel mandarin fish? Not only because it looks like a squirrel, but also because there will be such a squeak on the table when it is served. Squeak."

After a pause, the middle-aged man continued to say: "In our domestic dishes, the color and fragrance are naturally the key, but in fact there is another one to listen to. This squirrel mandarin fish and a squirrel eel paste are the enjoyment of listening. ."

Such an explanation by the middle-aged man made it a sudden not only the friends at the same table, but also the people who had the dish at the neighboring table.

Perhaps this is the first time that some people understand some of the connotations behind such a dish.

When Feng Yifan was talking and tasting with the guests, he saw a group of people gathering on his wife's side. There seemed to be something wrong in their expressions, and he also walked over to ask questions.

"What's wrong? It seems something is wrong with you?"

Without waiting for everyone to respond, he pointed to Yang Zhiyi who was sitting at the door and asked, "Why did you sit there?"

Su Ruoxi leaned close to her husband and quietly told her what had happened.

Feng Yifan frowned slightly after hearing this, feeling that things were really a bit weird, but he didn't think it was someone who was trying to steal a child, but he really couldn't help but prevent it.

After thinking about it, Feng Yifan comforted his wife softly: "It's okay, we just need to install the surveillance tomorrow."

When Feng Ruoruo saw her father and mother standing together and whispering, she naturally wanted to come over, wanting to hear what her father and mother were saying.

"Mom and dad, don't whisper, you also want Ruoruo to listen."

When Su Ruoxi saw her daughter approaching, she didn't want to let her know.

But Feng Yifan squatted down and said to her daughter earnestly: "Ruoruo, aunt Wang Cuifeng just now I saw someone who came back with us and looked inside at the door, so my mother was worried. It's a bad guy."

Feng Ruoruo became nervous when she heard what her father said: "Ah, have we been followed by bad guys, Dad?"

Feng Yifan continued: “I’m not sure if it’s a bad person, but my father, mother, grandpa, and grandma hope Ruoruo, Xixi, and Feifei can all be more careful, be obedient, and don’t just go out to play, okay?”

Feng Ruoruo immediately agreed: "Well, if you are obedient, you will not go out to play casually, and if you will not go with the bad guys."

After that, the little girl called her two good friends over again, and talked to her good friends again.

After Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei heard this, they also had a little bit of fear on their faces. Then the two little girls also said that they would be obedient and would not go with bad guys casually.

A group of people saw Feng Yifan tell the story to the little girl, and gave the little girls some advice. The three little girls behaved very seriously.

Suddenly everyone felt that perhaps they should have made it clear to the children just now that it is always good for the children to have a little guard.

Feng Yifan seriously instructed the little girls, and then stood up and comforted his wife: "Don't worry, there are so many of us, and there are so many neighbors in the old street, the children will be fine."

After her husband's reassurance, Su Ruoxi finally calmed down, and there was no more panic in her heart.

Afterwards, Feng Yifan led the apprentice back to the back kitchen, and everyone in the restaurant in front of them relaxed slightly.

As for the guests at the two tables, immersed in the delicious squirrel mandarin fish, they almost didn't care what the boss said here. In fact, this dish is too attractive in terms of shape and taste, and it makes people want to eat it.
