Chapter 193 French Fries 2
Soon, Xiaolin and her friend had no time to marvel, because their own set meals had arrived.
"Hello, both of you. Your set meals have been served."
"Okay, thank you," Xiaolin said, then opened the package with her friend, put on disposable gloves, and started eating.
Perhaps influenced by the customers next to them, the two of them also got fries first, wanting to see if it really had such great magic.
"I want to try it; I think it will be delicious."
"Yes, we should definitely try it and give it a review later."
As they were talking, they both started taking a bite of the fries in their hands at the same time.
One was dipped in ketchup, and the other in chili powder.
"Mmm, delicious!"
"Delicious! Delicious!"
Both of them looked at each other with shining eyes. Kobayashi couldn't help but speak first, "These fries are really delicious. They're sweet and sour after being dipped in ketchup. They're just as good as the potato buns we had this morning."
"It's the same for me, who dipped it in chili powder. It even reminds me a bit of the spicy potato buns I had this morning, except this one is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, which feels a little different, but it still tastes very good."
"Wow, this is so delicious! It was definitely worth the trip!"
The two of them talked and then buried their heads in eating fries. After finishing half of them, Xiaolin reluctantly looked up, took a sip of cola, and then turned her attention to the remaining hamburger.
She wanted to try what the burger tasted like.
She picked up a hamburger, opened her mouth wide, and took a bite. The first layer was a soft bun, the bottom was a tender chicken patty, then there were fresh tomato slices and a lettuce leaf, and it was covered with salad dressing.
She took a big bite and chewed slowly, her eyes growing brighter with each bite.
After swallowing it, she hurriedly recommended it to her friend, "You have to try this burger, it's so delicious, especially the tomato and lettuce, they're so good for some reason."
That's right. Although Zhao Lin didn't want to use tomatoes directly to make tomato sauce, it was fine to slice the tomatoes into thin slices and put them in the hamburger. This way, it wouldn't take much time, the waste would be less, and it would be fresher.
But that's exactly what resonates with customers; after all, it's so delicious that it doesn't need to be simmered into a sauce to taste good.
After listening to Xiaolin's words, the friend put down the fries and took a bite of the burger. "Oh my god, this burger is so delicious! The tomato and lettuce you mentioned are also very tasty. I don't even want to eat the chicken cutlet anymore, I just want to eat these two dishes."
"Yes, yes, this place looks really good. Even the chicken cutlet, although it's a little worse than the vegetable fries, still looks delicious. It's fried to a perfect crispy outside and tender inside, with the outer shell not too hard and not burnt."
"It tastes just as good as those restaurants that have special offers on Thursdays. I can use this place as a budget alternative from now on."
"Yes, we really made the right choice coming to this burger joint. We can come again next time."
The two of them were having a great time discussing it, and it wasn't just them; basically, everyone who ordered burgers and fries at the store was quite satisfied and went back to give it a good review.
Zhao Lin's shop has become a household name. What started as their own promotion on various platforms has now been flooded with positive reviews. Customers who have tried the food recommend it to each other, and some have even returned as repeat customers within just two days.
Zhao Lin felt overjoyed, knowing that she had made the right move.
Even though the cost of some materials has increased, they have always followed a high-price strategy, so the higher prices are quite reasonable. They haven't lost much of their profits; on the contrary, they've attracted a lot of customers.
"Great, that's great, now everything will go smoothly."
Zhao Lin happily shared the good news with Xia Shiyu and Ming Wan.
"This will work! My burger shop will definitely become a well-known brand."
Mingwan gave him a few words of advice, as his childhood friend had been spoiled by his family since he was young and might not be very good at interpersonal relationships.
"That's good, that's good. Keep up the good work with Boss Xia, there will be plenty of opportunities to make money in the future."
Zhao Lin said firmly, "Don't worry, I understand that principle. Boss Xia's vegetables are my cash cow. I'll cut down my cash cow right here."
"Okay, as long as you know what I mean."
"Okay, don't worry, I know you're doing this for my own good."
The two were very satisfied with their discussion.
Zhao Lin was very satisfied, while Xia Shiyu started making wolf tooth potatoes with his family. He wanted to experiment with different ways of cooking potatoes, and since it was a new experience, he wanted to try different ways of eating them.
Xia Lihua asked, "Actually, we can make crispy potato, or wolf tooth potato, which one would you like to eat?"
Xia Shiyu thought for a moment, "Only children make choices. Let's make both. Everyone can finish eating. If not, there's Yuzhu and the others, and Aunt Wang and the others next door can also finish."
Although the Spring Festival is over, the children have not yet started school. Since returning home this time, Xiang Jianzhu and Zhang Yan's two children have preferred their hometown, so they have stayed at home and will be picked up when school starts.
Xia Lihua nodded. He was the head chef when it came to making these kinds of snacks. "Okay, then make more."
"Okay, let's continue cutting the potatoes first."
Crispy potato can be made by deep-frying, while Bluetooth potato requires a special knife to cut it into a curved shape.
Xia Shiyu even bought a knife, and now she's cutting things with her family.
Grandma watched her movements and reached out to take the knife, saying, "How about I do it?"
Xia Shiyu put the knife away. "No need, Grandma. Be careful not to hurt your hands. Besides, it's still a bit cold. I'll do it. You can go peel a few potatoes."
"Okay, I'll go peel the potatoes."
Grandma went to peel potatoes again, while Grandpa and Mom were peeling garlic and preparing scallions.
Yu Juan was delighted, "It just so happens that all of these things from the demolished houses are here, even the pickled radishes are from radishes that were planted before and pickled."
"Okay," Xia Shiyu nodded. She could imagine how delicious this pot of potatoes would be. You know, apart from the chili powder, everything else in this dish was from a fairytale world. She couldn't even imagine how delicious it would be.
It's a bit of a shame about the chili powder. She'll try to make more chili powder later, and then she says that by summer we can enjoy the fiery and delicious chili.
Fortunately, the chili peppers they grow at home aren't too bad, and the chili powder they make is quite potent.
After preparing all the potatoes, Xia Lihua put them into the oil pan.
The oil temperature needs to be controlled well, otherwise it will be undercooked for a long time. The cooking time also needs to be controlled well, otherwise it will be too soft or too oily.
Once the time and heat are right, take them out.
"It feels just right, let's add some seasoning."
"it is good"
Xia Shiyu directly poured the chopped scallions, pickled radish cubes, minced garlic, and chili powder from houttuynia cordata into a bowl, and finally poured hot oil over it.
