Chapter 5 005. Sizzling Squid
Chapter 5 005. Sizzling Squid
"Clang clang clang!"
After Gu Chengyi's guidance, coupled with continuous practice for several days, Bai Sichen gradually touched the doorway.
At the beginning, he held the knife carefully, and he hesitated to do it for a long time.Now, he can quickly slice and shred the ingredients, and the cut shapes are also very neat, but the weight...
Pick up two freshly cut pumpkin slices, which seem to be exactly the same thickness, but when you weigh them, the pointer of the scale obviously tilts to one side.
"Wow! Are you kidding me?" Bai Sichen pushed aside all the cut pumpkins, and threw the knife in his hand back to the knife holder impatiently.
It has been more than a week. In order to practice knife skills, Bai Sichen has been with the kitchen all day.During the day, I was busy playing hands, and at night I practiced with a kitchen knife.I just felt that my body was covered with a strong smell of oily smoke, which couldn't be washed off no matter what.
Sitting in the corridor outside the kitchen, Bai Sichen looked up at the moon in the sky.
Although it was a city that he had never been in contact with, the moonlight in S City was as bright as that at home.Just don't know how the city is different from my own home.
Having been in City S for so long, Bai Sichen has yet to take a good look at the city.After staying in the old "Guo's" store for so long, I walked back and forth in the streets and alleys every day: I went to the front of the street to take out the garbage in the morning, and went to the back of the street in the afternoon to deliver the daily sanitation inspection list.
There was a rare time when the master was going out to deliver food, and Bai Sichen wanted to go out with him to have a look, but was pushed back by "You don't know the way, what if you lose it?"
Tonight, Bai Sichen didn't want to practice with a kitchen knife anymore.After eating just now, the master took Gu Chengyi out for something.There was only Bai Sichen in the room, so instead of going back to the room early to sleep, it would be better to go out and have a look at the city scenery outside Xinglong Street.
In case he got lost, Bai Sichen brought the "mobile phone" that Guo Zhenlin bought for him, and 20 yuan of pocket money.
Bai Sichen used to eat and drink for nothing in Guo's, and Guo Zhenlin felt sorry for him, so he bought him a "elderly phone" worth 100 yuan.
There are more than a dozen huge buttons on the phone, and the small screen still emits light blue light.Naturally, this is nothing compared to Bai Sichen's Ai Crazy 8P back then. Maybe he has a mobile phone, and he is already very satisfied.
Ten o'clock in the evening is a good time for business on Xinglong Street.
During the day, the shops and old stores on both sides of the street are busy, and there are only two or three customers in front of the small carts on the street.But at night, when the restaurants on the street are closed, this Xinglong Street is full of all kinds of snacks!
One after another, the small carts stretched from the front of Xinglong Street to the end of the street, and the hanging incandescent light bulbs hung in the air like long dragons.
Although the flavors of these various delicacies are alluring, they can be smelled for a long time, but they can't arouse Bai Sichen's interest.
There is a lot of traffic outside Xinglong Street, because it is close to the bustling commercial area, so you don't have to go too close to see the brilliant neon lights on the tall buildings in front of you, as well as various advertisements scrolling on the LED billboards.
The most prosperous pedestrian street is only four intersections away from Xinglong Street.Along the way, Bai Sichen unconsciously compared this place with the city he lived in before.
City S is one of the fastest-growing coastal cities in the country, with newly built roads, rows of high-rise buildings, and modern shared cars. City S doesn't seem to be any different from City A, even with many more modern facilities.
Hmm... City S is better.
The exciting nightlife is only halfway through, the residential area has already begun to fall asleep, and this side is still in full swing.Workers who are busy going to work during the day now put on comfortable clothes and go shopping to relax.
Isn't the money you earn just to buy yourself happiness?
In the tallest hotel, previous issues of "Frank's Gourmet Diary" are being played on their LED screens.Pedestrians can't help but slow down and take a look at the man displayed on the screen.
I watched "Frank's Gourmet Diary" before, and he said that he would come to S City to visit an old friend, and he thought it would be these two days.
The other high-rise buildings played their own promotional advertisements, but this hotel was the only one with Frank's advertisement.Could it be that he lives here?
Bai Sichen walked around the door with the mentality of giving it a try.
Looking from the door, the hall is luxuriously decorated, with a huge blue and white porcelain in the middle.The customer service at the front desk was dressed neatly and was handling procedures for two guests.Behind the huge viewing glass next to it, a man in a suit was sitting on an expensive sofa, holding a cup of coffee and reading a newspaper in his hand.
It's a pity that that man is not Frank...
Walking along the pedestrian street for a long time, Bai Sichen saw a lot of big-name clothing, and played with a lot of trial products displayed in experience stores.
This is the most relaxing day since he came to S City.You don't need to think about practicing knife skills, and you don't need to carry dishes to wash vegetables.Just wandering in the street like this, Bai Sichen felt light all over.
"Cuckoo~"
After walking around the pedestrian street for almost an hour, Bai Sichen felt a little hungry.
There will always be several alleys extending out of the pedestrian street, where various delicacies can satisfy the taste buds of tourists when they are tired from shopping.
"Twenty-four servings of net red version of finger cakes, eighteen servings of authentic Hong Kong egg waffles, and ten yuan a piece of curry fish balls..."
There are not as many types of snacks on Xinglong Street here, but all of them are expensive.Xinglong Street sells 21 yuan a basket of soup dumplings, 24 baskets here; [-] yuan a basket of finger cakes, [-] yuan here!
After shopping around, there is only one fried squid in sauce that is more affordable: four skewers for ten yuan.
"Boss! Eight skewers of squid!" Bai Sichen handed the only 20 yuan he had to the boss.
"laugh!"
When the fresh squid is placed on the iron plate, the high temperature causes each soft tentacles to retract, flatten it vigorously with the iron plate and add some peanut oil, and after a while, you can smell the unique aroma of squid.
Use a knife to score a few cuts on the squid slices, and sprinkle some sauce to taste.The light squid meat absorbs all the flavors of the sauce, and the white and tender meat gradually becomes darker. Finally, some sesame seeds, cumin and chili are sprinkled before serving.
Well~ the authentic iron plate squid is ready!
"Do you have to run so far if you want to eat squid?"
Bai Sichen just took the squid, and before he could finish his mouth, he heard a familiar voice behind him.
"Brother? Why are you here?"
Turning around, Gu Chengyi was riding on a bicycle.Stand on the ground with one foot for balance, fold your arms on the handlebars, and lean your upper body slightly forward.
"Master and I came out to meet an acquaintance, and we are planning to go back." Gu Chengyi looked Bai Sichen up and down, "You are not practicing knife skills in the shop, why did you come out to eat squid?"
Bai Sichen smiled awkwardly, "I'm a little tired even after several days, I want to go out for a walk."
"I don't want to improve all day long, I just want to play."
When Gu Chengyi said this, Bai Sichen felt even more ashamed.
This is not the point, he is most afraid that Gu Chengyi will tell Guo Zhenlin that he sneaked out to play.If Guo Zhenlin felt that he was playing with things and lost his ambition, then he would never even think about learning to cook in the future.
"boarding."
Gu Chengyi pushed the pedals with the back of his feet, and driven by the chain, the disc turned counterclockwise and returned to his feet.
That's all right, Gu Chengyi is definitely going to take himself to find his master.well!There will be no chance to come out to play in the future!
Sitting in the back seat of the car, Bai Sichen was still clutching those bunches of squid.Thinking of seeing the master in a while, he still has no appetite.
"Brother, you're going the wrong way." Coming out of the snack street, Gu Chengyi rode in the opposite direction.
"Zizi..."
Gu Chengyi's cycling speed slowed down, and the sound of the bicycle chain turning became more obvious.
"Don't you want to come out for a walk? It's better to take you by bike than to walk."
what what?Bai Sichen couldn't believe his ears.
A second ago, he was still at the bottom of the valley, but when he heard that Gu Chengyi didn't take him to see his master, Bai Sichen was so happy that he almost jumped into the sky.
"Tell me, where do you want to go?" Gu Chengyi turned his head slightly and asked Bai Sichen.
The happy Bai Sichen pulled Gu Chengyi's clothes like a child and stood up tremblingly.
Standing on the back seat of the bicycle, Bai Sichen supported Gu Chengyi's shoulder with one hand, and pointed forward with the other finger holding the squid, "Go to the beach!"
As soon as the words fell, Gu Chengyi accelerated his speed and drove towards the sea like the wind.
It was already twelve o'clock in the evening, and there were hardly any cars on the road.Gu Chengyi rode fast, and Bai Sichen, who was standing in the back seat, was not afraid. He even waved the "spear" in his hand just like the general in the movie.From time to time stuff it into your mouth and taste it.
"This squid tastes good!" Gu Chengyi's mouth was full of oil, and there were a few sesame seeds at the corner of his mouth.
"How can there be any delicious food made by Master? There is so much second-hand oil, and the cumin is only a few days ago." Gu Weijue took a deep breath while talking, and the wind blowing towards his face was mixed with the smell of some squid skewers. "Even the squid was caught the day before yesterday, it's not fresh at all."
How did Bai Sichen know this?In his eyes, as long as it tastes good, it's fine.
"Try it, it's really good!" Bai Sichen put the squid in front of Gu Chengyi.
Gu Chengyi glanced at the squid still smeared with Bai Sichen's saliva in disgust, "I don't want to eat it, I'm still riding a bicycle."
"Quick, quick! Just one bite!"
"Don't eat!"
"Oh! Just one bite, I didn't lie to you!"
Unable to resist Bai Sichen's stalking, Gu Chengyi bit into his mouth the piece of squid that Bai Sichen hadn't finished eating on the bamboo stick.
Chew carefully... Hey, the taste is just as Gu Chengyi guessed, it's unpalatable.Some scorched squid had a bitter taste, and it was absolutely impossible for him to eat such an unpalatable thing before it was replaced.
This time he didn't spit it out, but swallowed it abruptly.
"what about the taste?"
"Well... so-so."

Food tip: There is a film on the surface of the squid. It will taste better if you tear off this film before cooking. emmmmm, I usually tear it slowly with bare hands...
