Chapter 71

71 Spicy Squid
“Squid?” Ji Zhao’s eyes lit up. Countless ways to make squid appeared in her mind!
Squid Teppanyaki, Soy Sauce Squid, Ginger Scallion Squid Roll, Oil Splashed Squid-
“Ah Tao, you really know how to make squid?” Second Manager You asked excitedly, “Then can you follow me to the restaurant now?”
Ji Zhao did not nod in agreement immediately. Instead, she subconsciously looked at Shen Yao.
“Second Manager You, it’s already late. If we still go to the restaurant, I’m afraid we won’t be able to go home before curfew…”
“It’s fine. I’ll prepare a guest room for you and your wife to rest in the inn. Anyway, Ah Tao, you must help me with this!” Second Manager You hurriedly looked at Ji Zhao, his eyes filled with pleading!
“Ah Tao, let’s help Second Manager You!”
Just as Ji Zhao was indecisive, Shen Yao suddenly smiled and said, “I’ll go with you.”
“Alright then!” Ji Zhao smiled faintly.
An hour later, Ji Zhao walked into the restaurant’s kitchen.
When she saw the ingredients, her eyes sparkled.
“Second Manager, can I trouble you to ask that customer if he likes sweet or spicy food? Also, is there any food that he doesn’t like to eat?” Ji Zhao thought for a moment and turned to look at the worried Second Manager You. She asked with a light smile.
“Okay!”
Second Manager You hurried out of the kitchen.
Shen Yao walked to her side and asked softly, “This ingredient looks a little strange. Do you really know how to cook it?”
“Yes!” Ji Zhao nodded confidently. “You’ll know when I make it!”
Looking at the confident smile on her face, Shen Yao could not help but smile.
In five minutes, Second Manager You, who had returned, hurriedly said, “Ah Tao, that customer said that he doesn’t have any foods to avoid. In addition, he likes spicy food. The spicier the better!”
“He likes spicy food?” Ji Zhao rubbed her chin thoughtfully.
“What’s wrong? Is it difficult?” Second Manager You asked hurriedly.
“It’s not difficult.” Ji Zhao raised her chin confidently and smiled. “Don’t worry, I know what to do!”
The customer had brought dried squid. Although the chef of the restaurant was not familiar with making squid, they still knew the basics.
They had already soaked out the dried squid.
Ji Zhao immediately rolled up her sleeves and started working. “Shen Yao, help me look after the fire in the stove. Make sure it’s small and not too strong.”
“Okay!”
Ji Zhao immediately cut the squid and washed it clean before draining the water. When the oil in the pot was 30% hot, she immediately poured the squid into the pot and quickly flipped it over, frying it slightly.
When both sides of the squid were slightly red, she immediately fished it out. With the remaining oil in the pot, he poured in the chopped garlic cloves and dried red chili. Then, he added a spoonful of hot sauce. After stir-frying to release the fragrance, she poured in all the squid that had been fried earlier and stir-fried it until it was cooked thoroughly.
For a moment, the huge kitchen was filled with a rich spicy smell.
A few of the people watching at the side choked on the spicy fragrance and cried!
After taking the squid out of the pot and putting it on the plate, Ji Zhao sprinkled some cilantro and white sesame on it.
“Alright!”
Ji Zhao smiled. “Second Manager You, can you bring this dish for the guest to try?”
“Okay!”
Ji Zhao thought for a moment and made another Snow Fungus and Pear Soup to dispel the spiciness.
After the foreign merchant ate the fragrant and spicy squid that Ji Zhao had made, he cried out in satisfaction. In his joy, he actually rewarded five taels of silver!
