Chapter 68 Medicinal Stew Pot Purchased at the Harbor
After the cold dew, Liuxiang Snacks no longer sells ice water, but instead sells canned soup.
The new stove in the kitchen was ready, so Mao Xi first made several basic stew pot soups, including radish and pork ribs soup and mushroom and duck soup.
The store used to only serve coconut chicken stew, which is stewed with chicken directly in the coconut shell. Many old diners in Lihua Town were tired of it.
By flipping through the "Four Seasons Medicinal Diet" that she bought from the ghost market in Kaitang County, Mao Xi added a new medicinal stew pot soup: "Yam, Lily and Pork Ribs Soup".
After cleaning the ribs, put them into a stew pot, add: Chinese yam, Codonopsis pilosula, Adenophora adenophora, Polygonatum odoratum, red dates, dried lilies, a small amount of Angelica sinensis, steam for three quarters of an hour in a steamer, and put in the wolfberry after taking it out of the pot.
At first, we only sell one kind of medicinal stew pot. As long as diners come to drink soup on weekdays, Ah Xing will always highly recommend it.
Early in the morning, manager Bai of the scissor shop came to the shop to have breakfast and ordered his usual hot and sour rice noodles.
Ah Xing first served the complimentary sauerkraut, and then promoted: "Shopkeeper Bai, our store has a new yam stew pot soup today. It only costs 15 yuan per serving. Do you want to try it?"
"Yam soup, what's so strange about this?"
"Shopkeeper Bai, this is a medicinal soup. It also contains lily, dangshen and other medicinal materials. It can nourish the spleen and stomach. It is suitable to drink now!"
Shopkeeper Bai seemed to make some sense when he heard it, so he ordered one. After finishing the drink, he said to Ah Xing with unsatisfied taste: "Waiter, do you have medicinal stews like Ganoderma lucidum in your store? Bring my wife here another day. "
"Shopkeeper Bai likes it the best. Ganoderma lucidum soup will be added to the menu in the future. Be sure to come again someday." After saying that, he fed back the demand for ganoderma lucidum soup to Mao Xi.
A hot soup can clear away the fatigue of the day.
Brother Dali, who had not seen him for a long time, came to the store. He and Ah Xing were old acquaintances.
Ah Xing recommended radish and pork ribs soup to him.
Brother Dali felt relieved after drinking the soup. Then he ordered another yam stew pot and hot dry noodles, saying that he bought them while running errands for someone.
Seeing that customers liked herbal soup, Mao Xi took some Ganoderma lucidum and Dendrobium from the kitchen, washed them, and put two cans of "Ganoderma lucidum and Dendrobium old chicken soup" in the steamer.
Lou Lan'er distributes flyers on today's soup menu at the entrance of the shop. If she sees anyone interested, she will invite them into the shop.
Ah Xing and Lou Lan'er cooperated tacitly, and the medicinal stew pot soup sold well on the first day. However, everyone generally complained that there were too few choices, and they all asked Mao Xi to add more varieties.
So Mao Xi quickly added several medicinal soups, including: small intestine lotus seed soup, pork belly lotus seed soup, angelica black chicken soup, angelica pig heart soup, each serving costs 15 yuan. Ganoderma lucidum and dendrobium soup sells for 35 yuan due to its precious ingredients. arts.
I only made two servings of Ganoderma lucidum soup that day, and they were bought by two gourmets, Mi Yuan and Nalan Jue.
With this promotion of medicated diet, Mao Xi plans to update the formula of medicated diet based on the solar terms and combining health-preserving ingredients.
In order to add a fish tube bone soup, Mao Xi found some time and went to Wutong Port alone to buy dried fish and some kelp to make free appetizers.
There are various types of seafood in Wutong Port, but because of the long distance and the inability to refrigerate, not many are sold in Lihua Town.
Mao Xi went to shopkeeper Huang and replenished some coconuts to put in the space. She also found a dry goods store and bought dried kelp and dried mackerel.
When passing by an aquatic products stall, she saw a man killing fish for customers, taking out the fish bladders and throwing them into a basket nearby.
Isn’t it delicious to use this fish maw to make spicy hot pot? Why do people here throw it away? It’s such a waste!
Mao Xi stepped forward and asked, "Brother, don't you want the swim bladder?"
"You can't eat these, so why keep them?"
"Can you give them all to me? I love eating them!"
The little brother's face is full of black question marks? !
Mao Xi smiled awkwardly, took a bag full of fish maws from the little brother, and started shopping at the little brother's aquatic product stall.
He saw a large bucket containing a lot of squid, but not many people were buying it, so he bought 20 fresh squids from his brother at a low price, then put them in the freezer of the space to freeze.
Seeing that Mao Xi bought so many squids from him, the younger brother was very happy and started to promote other seafood of his own: "Little girl, you buy them for the restaurant, right? The quality of my fish and shrimps is very good, I will give them to you It’s pretty cheap.”
After some haggling, she bought another 20 kilograms of shrimp from her brother.
The little brother smiled and helped Mao Xi pack the shrimps, and said happily: "Little girl, my name is Aqiang. Remember to order seafood next time. If you come to my aquatic product stall again, I will definitely give you a preferential price!"
After finishing the shopping, it was still early, so Ma Xi ran to where Nalan Jue's merchant ship "Xing Jue" was. A nearby stall was selling Nanzhou fruits unloaded from the ship.
Among these fruits, there are some durians, but many people cannot accept the taste and few patronize them.
Mao Xi picked up a durian and stepped forward to ask the stall owner: "Brother, how do you sell this fruit?"
The little brother looked uncomfortable and complained: "Stop talking, I won't sell this fruit, so I'll give it to you!"
"Seriously?" Shu Xi's face was filled with disbelief.
"The boss of our ship brought it back from Nanzhou, but no one here eats it. It would be a pity to throw it away, so I was asked to put it with other fruits and give it to anyone who wants to eat it."
After speaking, he dug out a piece of durian meat on a banana leaf and handed it to Mao Xi.
"Brother, my family really likes to eat these durians. If you don't want them, can you give them to me? I'll bring the car over."
When the little brother heard that he could give away all the durians, he quickly nodded in agreement.
Mao Xi immediately ran back to the post house and brought the donkey cart over. The younger brother helped and loaded all the durians onto the cart.
After the purchase was completed, Mao Xi hurriedly drove the donkey cart back to Lihua Town.
In order to prevent the smell of durian from driving away customers, Mao Xi moved the durian into the space. After returning to Lihua Town, she took out the coconuts and dried seafood.
After Luda helped move the coconuts to Liu Xiang Snacks' warehouse, he began to peel the coconuts.
Xiaoqing soaked the kelp and mackerel, and helped Mao Xi make mackerel stewed canned soup and cold kelp shreds.
Mao Xi went to the kitchen, took two refrigerated squids from the space and put them on the cutting board to process them. Today at the night snack stall, she was going to start selling grilled squid, a snack she used to eat when shopping.
